Avoid task killers
It is best to avoid task killers such as Advanced Task Killer. Android is designed to automatically pre-load certain applications, even if you don't load them yourself. If it starts to run low on memory, it will smartly unload the oldest running apps automatically.
Manually killing tasks will only mean they get loaded in memory again. Task killers can make the phone slow, laggy, or drain battery life more quickly.
Bookmark a contact on your homescreen
To bookmark a contact on your homescreen, long press on the home screen background and select Shortcuts. Then select Direct dial.
If you call someone regularly this can be useful as you will have a shortcut to them handily placed on your homescreen
Bookmark a web page on your homescreen
To bookmark a website on your homescreen, go into your browser and find the bookmark of the page you want to create a shortcut for.
Then long press on the bookmark and select Add Shortcut to Home.
If you regularly visit certain websites, this can be handy as you will have a shortcut to the site on your homescreen.
Create folders to tidy your Apps
If you find yourself with too many Apps on the homescreen, then you can create folders to organise them.
To start, simply press and hold on an App and drag it over the top of another App. The App should change colour/shape. Then release your finger and the two Apps will be combined into a folder.
You can then drag more Apps into this folder using the same process.
To give your folder a label, simply long press on the folder and you will be able to enter a name.
Double tap for a full stop (period)
While typing emails or notes, you can simply tap the space key twice and the phone will insert a full stop / period
Install new keyboard to improve accuracy
The standard Android keyboard is good, but not great. There are many third party keyboards available which will improve your typing speed and accuracy.
Go to the Android Market and search for 'Keyboard' to see some great alternatives, many of which are more accurate and make typing much easier.
A good one is GoKeyboard.
If you see a warning saying the keyboard will collect all information (including credit cards) just ignore this. This is just a security feature that Android shows for every third-party keyboard that you install.
Accents and special characters
If you want to type non-English letters (eg those with an accent), long-press on the relevant letter. A list of options will appear for you to select.
Access the scientific calculator
To access the scientific calculator, rotate the phone to landscape mode.
The calculator will change to a scientific one

Android Easter egg
There is an Easter egg hidden in the Android operating system. To see it, go to your Homescreen, then press Menu - Settings - About phone.
Then tap on the Android version option 5 times and you will get a surprise.
Sometimes it doesn't work, so try a couple of times. By the way don't expect to see an actual Easter Egg. That is just the name given to things hidden inside software or operating systems.
Auto focus the camera
When taking photos or videos, tap the screen where you want to focus on. The phone will automatically adjust the settings to improve the image or video
Bring up more predicted words
If you have word prediction enabled while you are typing, you can long press the middle word that is suggested. This will bring up a menu allowing you to select various other suggested words.
Browse websites in full-screen mode
If you want to browse in full screen mode, without the URL bar at the top of the browser, then you can enable this..
Open the standard browser and press Menu - Settings - Labs. Then put a check mark under Full Screen .
To get access to the browser options (that are now invisible), there is now a neat hidden menu. Slide your finger in from the left or right of the screen. A circular menu will appear with various options.
Capture a still shot while recording video
To capture a still shot while recording a video, simply tap the screen while you are recording.
This will save a still image.
Change keyboards
To change keyboards (if you have additional keyboards installed), you can switch between them by pressing the small keyboard symbol in the top left of your screen. You will need to be in keyboard input mode (i.e. typing something) for this to work.
Note: you need to have more than one keyboard installed for this to work
Change quick response texts
The phone has the ability to send quick response text messages if your phone is ringing but you can't answer it.
To change these, go to your Dialer App - Settings - Quick responses. You can only have 4 of them and you may need to edit existing ones.
Change the backlight screen timeout
To change the backlight screen timeout, go to Settings - Display - Screen. Then choose the screen time out duration.
You can also tell the phone screen to always stay lit when it is plugged in via USB. Go to Settings - Developer Options. Then check Stay Awake.
Change the screen brightness
To change the screen brightness, start from the Homescreen and press Menu - Settings - Display - Brightness.
Then choose the desired brightness setting. You can also select Automatic brightness to let the phone decide for you.
If you have auto-brightness enabled, you can also press, hold and slide the top notification bar left and right. The brightness will increase and decrease accordingly.
Check phone status and battery usage
To find out information about Signal Strength, Network Information, Remaining Battery Time and Battery Usage (by Application), go to your Homescreen - Menu - Settings - About Phone.
Check the firmware version
To check your firmware version, start from the Homescreen and press Menu - Settings - About Phone- software version
This should list your Android version, Build number and Model Number.
Copy files between your phone and PC using WiFi
To copy files between your phone and PC, go to the Android Play Market and download an app called AirDroid.
This is an extremely useful App that connects your phone to your PC wirelessly, allowing you to move files and many, many other things.
Copying iTunes songs to Android
If you have decided to ditch your iPhone in favour of Android, then there is a simple way to take your iTunes music, playlists and album art with you.
Simply go the Android Marketplace and download a Free App called Easy Phone Tunes. You will also need the computer version of the software, so go to http://easyphonetunes.com and download it from there.
Then, when that is done, turn your phone into a USB storage device (this will vary from device to device, but instructions are on the website).
Once your phone is connected to your computer, open the computer version of the software and select your device from the Easy Phone Tunes list. Then follow the instructions to Sync your media
Create folders in your Quick Launch bar
If you have used up all of your Quick Launch spaces, then there is a trick.
Once it is full, press and drag an App from the homescreen and move it over the top of an App in the Quick Launch area. Then release your finger. This will create a folder containing the original App plus the new one. This is a great way to have access to regularly used App
Create shortcut to websites on your home screen
To create a shortcut to a website on your homescreen, go to your browser bookmarks.
Then long press on a site and select Add shortcut to Home
Customise your favourites tray
At the bottom of each homescreen is your favourites tray, which consists of 5 icons. You can customise it by adding icons to the tray. If it's full however, you will first need to remove some.
To remove an icon, simply press and hold an icon. Then drag it to your desktop.
Then to add a new one, simply drag an icon from your homescreen to the favourites tray.
Enable / disable vibrate / haptic feedback when you type
To disable / enable vibrate (also called haptic feedback) when you type or press the screen, go to Settings - Language & input - Settings.
Then uncheck Vibrate on keypress.
Enable sideload of Apps
If you want to install Apps outside of the Android Market (called sideloading), then go to Settings - Security - Unknown sources.
Note: use at your own risk.
Help, I have forgotten my unlock pattern
If you have forgotten your custom unlock pattern, then don't panic.
After 5 unsuccessful tries a button should appear saying 'Forgot pattern'. Press this and you will be asked to enter your Gmail username/password.
The phone will then ask for a new unlock pattern. If you don't have a Gmail account, then you might have to either call your carrier or factory reset your phone.
Hide folders or files
If you want to hide folders or files from being index or displayed, simple put a . (full stop / period) before the file or folder name.
Make volume / music louder
WARNING: Making your volume or music louder can damage your hearing.
Most phones have their volumes limited by local laws to protect our hearing. There is a way to boost your volume however. Go to the Android Market and download an App called Volume+ (Sound Boost). There is also a free version called Volume+ Free.
You will need to root your phone for this App to work.
Make your phone run faster
Here are the top 5 tips to make your phone run faster:
1) Use only essential widgets on your homescreen - each widget consumes memory and processing power which can slow your down your phone.
2) Uninstall apps that you don't use - after awhile your phone can get cluttered as some Apps are designed to always run in the background. If you rarely use an App, then uninstall it to free up memory and CPU resource.
3) Install Apps to your phone memory - if you have an SDCard, always install Apps to the phone memory, which can be accessed faster. If you have Apps on the SDCard, then move them back to the phone memory with an App called Move2SD available from the Play Market.
4) Use Static rather than Live wallpapers - Live wallpapers consume processing power and memory. Unless you really must have them, uninstall them.
5) Kill tasks occasionally - Some Apps will run in the background indefinitely unless you kill them. Most of them won't cause a problem, but it pays to check your running tasks from time to time. Hold down your Home key and check the Task Manager.
One last thing: Don't use Task Killers. Android manages tasks very well and Task Killers just make your phone unstable and can slow it down further
note this guide is mainy to help the people who didnt recieved a manual instructions booklet along with their phone like my country(INDIA)

Wow thanks! Im gonna uninstall my task killer now.
Good job! Some of this are well known but many aren't so it should be sticky subject for all who are coming into Android from wherever hey are coming.
The taskkiller part should be put in red
Another one: manage your contacts in gmail. It is bscked up accesible from anywhere and so convenient. Much easier to edit from the computer after all.

Bot not stopping?? To avoid weird behaviours, please add at least one Sleep action just after any other action, setting at least the amount of time that the action consumes. (ie. 1 tap (5sec), > 1 Sleep (5sec).
ABM or CSV? ABM file extension is completely deprecated and you shouldn't use it. ABM files are not compatible between app updates so you should stick with CSV files instead.

Excellent idea. Will be awesome with some polishing
Issues on my Verizon Galaxy S3.
1) Sleep timer doesn't seem to wait as many seconds as you enter
2) When using with an app that hides notification bar its a pain to switch focus and stop the script without 20 other apps being opened. Maybe use a floating icon interface like gameguardian or gamecih use? or allow a hot-key to be set for start-stop? Seems like it always ends up crashing while I'm trying to close apps that it opened. If I switch focus to the botmaker then depending on the script you can really mess things up... first effort I hadn't exported, saved, or even written down anywhere and was about 30 lines long... even though i immediately hit pause when i got to botmaker the auto-taps kept going and deleted about 7 lines of my script before it crashed and shutdown
3) A working directory to save and load scripts from would be great to have. The current import/export seems a little awkward
Will download when I get 4.1

Depending on your device and ROM you can do this already. On my galaxy s3 running CleanROM I have an option under Settings->Developer options->Show pointer location. This puts an overlay at the top of screen so you can see the X,Y of each touch.
Great App! Would like to the an option to repeat endless. Atm I have the same sequence over and over.

It repeats endlessly for me.
Just 4.1+ ?
I see definitely great potentials in this app. I will test it ASAP
Great Idea, can you please just add an a record option, It's really hard to know the coordinations i want.
Again, Wonderful Idea
Brilliant idea.
It would be good if you could record gestures for talkback and assign them to widgets / navbar shortcuts.
For example, I`d like to add a widget / icon in the navbar or home screen that would emulate swipe down - then - swipe right as this pauses talkback. My wife has brain damage and is blind and the gestures on Talkback are a right pain in the arse!
I have a Nexus 4 running PA with Franco kernel and I put the said action in, hit play and it kept going over and over. I was unable to pause or stop it. I had to reboot the handset.
That said, this is a marvellous idea. Being able to record complicated multi-point swipes and assign them to a softkey/widget would be fantastic. There could be a security risk (potentially) if the app records silently and stores touches on the pattern unlock.
Good work, OP, good work.
Works great! The was able to take the X Y from my CM10.1 D2VZW and have it drop an item from Ingress! Would like to be able to copy/paste action lines or repeat action etc for repetitive tasks.
Please keep up the good work! I'm very excited about this project.
Very nice app, congratulations :good:
I've recently been doing research on how to inject keyEvents to other applications for the Glass on Android port, and the only way I could find was to create an InputMethod.
Could you please give me some insight as to how you achieved this? Did you have to use the NDK or made use of some hidden API?
been waiting for something like this for so long! thanks so much dev! :good::good::good:
Have been looking for this for so long. Had looked at every inch of Google and couldn't find and there I just bumped into it today. Thanks Dev.

Hello XDA,
Ever wanted to copy some text in an app on Android but you could not because the copy function was deactivated by the app's developer ?
This situation happens quite often actually, as the standard Android long press copy function does not work in some of the biggest Android applications: Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, SnapChat.
However, we at Camel Corporation have found a solution. A proper solution that does not involve taking a screenshot and using OCR or going on the browser version of the app.
Our new app, Universal Copy, enables you to copy (almost) any text from any application in only three simple taps.
First, install Universal Copy from the Play Store.
Follow the steps to activate the app's accessibility service.
Then, when you are in an app and want to copy some text :
open your notification drawer
click on "Activate Universal Copy mode"
tap the text(s) you want to copy
click on "Copy": the selected text will highlight and will be copied to your clipboard!
To get a deeper look at how the app works, you can watch the great video review by TK from XDA.
Let us know if you find this app useful, and dont hesitate to contact me if you have any feature request!
Murin,
for the Camel Corp Team
Developer of Easy Copy
Link to the app : Universal Copy

V1.2 update
Hi everyone,
First I would like to thank you for your great feedbacks!
We have had two busy weeks and today I am pleased to tell you that we have a nice feature update for Universal Copy.
Due to the way Universal Copy works, you had sometimes no choice but to copy a whole paragraph, then paste it and select only the part you wanted to copy. Therefore we integrated a "selection edit" feature which lets you select the exact sentence or word you want to copy before actually copying. You can trigger it by a long click on the paragraph you want to copy or with the action bar's "Edit" button when you are in the Universal Copy mode. Attached to this post is a screenshot of this feature.
You can grab the 1.2 update in the play store.
We would be glad to hear your feedbacks and comments / feature requests as usual!
Cheers,
Murin
v1.4
Hi,
Two new updates on Universal Copy!
=> The v1.3 brings a shortcut to Universal Copy: thanks to this shortcut you can launch the Universal Copy mode the way you want!
You just need to have some button / gesture customization app or launcher installed on your device, or a custom ROM that allow to assign shortcuts to buttons.
Once the shortcut assigned, you can disable the annoying notification. Universal Copy becomes completely integrated into your system, and that is a quite nice feeling
=> The v1.4 brings a way to copy texts that are on the top of your screen. This was not possible before for the text appeared under the action bar.
Therefore we now added an option to hide the action bar, we call that the "full screen" mode. This option is available in the Universal Copy mode, on the top right side of the screen.
I hope you will enjoy these updates, let me know if you have any other features in mind!
Murin
PS: Forgot to mention that the latest Twitter release disabled the "copy" option to copy tweets content.
Universal Copy works on Twitter, so if you are looking for a solution to copy tweets since last Twitter's update this app is for you!

What do you mean, work always?
If you mean that you want it to work without a notification, you can use the "long click" on a button shortcut, or other builtin shortcuts like the quick settings tiles.
Create reminders, shopping lists, small notes, etc.

(Fields "Date" and "Time" can be empty. This allows you to create shopping lists etc.)
Colored circle shows a chosen priority.
Short tap on task to edit (not on a colored circle).
Long tap on task to delete (not on a colored circle).
Tap on a colored circle of task in "Current" to move task in "Done".
Tap on a colored circle of task in "Done" to move task in "Current".

You can turn off the splachscreen (select the check box in the menu)
English is a default language in my app
I look forward to any comments.
Russian localization is also available.
Search is easy to use. Just one or a few symbols (as you wish) need to be entered.
Tasks of the group "Done" can be returned to the "Current", and after that, can be edited.
Thus, you do not need to create a new task of the same type every time, such as "go to the gym." It can be returned from "Done" to the group "Current" and then you just need to edit the date and time.
Any plans to add a widget?
Soon
Setting priorities will help you to identify the most and the least important tasks.
Anyway, thanks for comment!
Thanks, but i don't understand, there is only title for a task? No details? Checkboxes?

Thanks for your question. You can choose a priority, set date and time. All details can be written at the task title. If you need something else, please, tell me.
NOTE: This is only original work in the sense that I put several different methods together to achieve what I personally wanted. I use a dark theme in my S8 so seeing the Bluetooth icon in the quick settings can be hard in the sunlight when I get in the car so I put this together to help me and I decided to share this with the community. Nearly all of the credit goes to others for making this possible.

APP FACTORY (TASKER PLUGIN) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.appfactory
YOUR PREFERRED BIXBY REMAPPING APP
First things first we need to set up a profile to intercept when the Bixby button is pressed. The following is what I use:
Profile: Bixtooth (32)
Event: Variable Set [ Variable:%WIN Value:Bixby* User Variables Onlyff ]
Enter: Bixtooth (31)
A1: Bluetooth [ Set:Toggle ]
I will link to the profile for you to download for simplicity at the end if the guide.
Now we have to give the task an icon. Open the tasks tab, then open the Bixtooth task. In the bottom right corner three is a grid icon. Tap that and select whatever icon/image you want to give it. I personally selected the bixby icon that I got from Google image search.
Next, we have to export the task as an app using the app factory plugin. This is very simple. Just go to the tasks tab, highlight the Bixtooth task and tap the 3 dot menu and select export, then export it as an app.
Give it a name so Android can recognize it such as "com.bluetooth.bixby" then tap Back then once it's compiled, (about 5 seconds) tap the little Android icon to install it as a dedicated app.
The final step is to use your preferred bixby remapping app that will remap it to an app, then simply select remap to the new Bixtooth app we just installed and you're done!
Now whenever you tap the bixby button, it will toggle Bluetooth instead.
This is just a simple way of making life a little safer while driving. Hope it helps!
Thanks to you guide I configured my bixby button to switch my Yeelight. Awesome! Thank you
You're welcome
Hello, there are some bixby button remapper (e.g. "bxActions" or "Custom Bixby Button") which allow to set a shortcut for using with bixby buttons.
Of course you can choose a Tasker Shortcut and select the task you want.
So there is no need to export a task as app.
I only found one that let's the user link to a tasker task but that's a paid feature. I just found a way to do it without having to pay for premium features.
I just checked out those 2 apps and although I had installed them to try them out I had never thought of looking to an "app shortcut". My narrow mind was looking directly for Tasker.
Well if this has taught me anything is that I now discovered a simple way to launch Tasker tasks that I didn't know about before.
