[App] [Alpha] QuickCamera | Moto X-like camera launch gesture - Android Apps and Games

What is QuickCamera?
QuickCamera is a free and open source application that lets you quickly launch the camera app (normally or from the lock screen) with a simple gesture that involves twisting your wrist twice, quickly. It's the same gesture that's used to launch the camera app on the Moto X. Pull out your phone, perform the gesture and the camera app will be ready to take wonderful photos. No need to wake the phone or press any buttons.
Why did I make this?
I am a big fan of Moto X's gesture controls and I really liked the gesture to launch the camera from anywhere, by twisting your wrist quickly 2 times. It's really handy, but unfortunately not available to other devices, so I decided to replicate the feature and bring it to all Android devices. It involved weeks of experimentation, but I finally have a working alpha version ready.

Forgot to add it to OP, thanks

Alpha 2 has been pushed, will go live in few hours and you will receive an update via Play Store. I have attached the APK in OP also. Oh, and I forgot to mention: You can access the debugging settings by pressing volume down button 3 times in the app.

Awesome, it is! :good: :good: :good:
Well, you have given the source, but I,m still asking, can i implement it in my ROM as an inbuilt feature?

You can do anything you like, as long as you follow the license (GPL v2)

Wow... Great stuff.. I mean.. Really great!!! Neo V running 4.4 works flawlessly.. Only one thing. I cant seem to find any settings. I'd like to change the time between the twists because IMO its too long.. (Even after 5-6 seconds it would activate.)

Open the app, press volume down button 3 times, the debug settings will open. You cannot change the time between twists, but you can tweak one value which affects the twists in a certain way (X-axis threshold).

Is it possible to add the vibration that the Moto X does when the camera opens?

Works on the note 3 but it seems to have trouble bypassing the lock screen and seems too sensitive. I assume changing the axis threshold would help with that?

Yes, try experimenting with values from 0 to 10. 5 works for me on my HTC One.

Thank you for this app.
I could not get it to work on my rooted Note 2 running Kitkat 4.4.2 (IOAP ROM) w/AGNI kernel
I tried to change axis threshold values between 0 to 10 and none worked.
Also, how do you exit the app after turning it on ? I have to use the home button to get out.

Please send logcat, without it I cannot identify what went wrong on your device. Also, are you performing the gesture properly?
You can close it from multitasking menu.

[APP][2.3+][ROOT] App Override - Now on Playstore

We've all heard of the ability to set a custom DPI for each application, such as in the ParanoidAndroid ROMs and the Xposed Framework. Consdering that control of the user over his/her applications, I came up with App Control, Taking Application Control to the next level. Remeber it's still in beta so expect bugs.
The list remains short for now, but will be growing in time. This application allows you to set custom settings for each and every app, regardless of the fact of it being either a system or user application, such as;
Screen Orientation
Font Size
Input Method
Screen Timeout
Minimum CPU Speed
Maximum CPU Speed
Sound Mode
Wifi
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Examples and Explainations of Settings​
Didn't get it? Here's how it works, for each application you can set these settings, you can specify the settings for each individual application. Here are the explainations for each feature or setting.
-Screen Orientation
You can specify an application to remain in a certain Orientation, which may be, portrait, landscape, reverse portrait and reverse landscape. Lets say you would like an application to stay in landscape, incase your watching a video on YouTube, Netflix etc, but you would like the rest of your applications to remain on auto-rotate and you don't want to go rushing back to settings to change this everytime, this setting gives you the ability to do exactly that.
-Font Size
Let's say you have an elderly person is using a device and they have problems with reading their daily news because the text was too small, with this setting you can make the Font Size larger to put that issue at ease. NOTE: This will work depending on your device, it is not guaranteed to work on every device.
-Input Method
You can select the keyboard or voice input is going to be used in the app you choose.
-Screen Timeout
Specify an app to Timeout Screen after a specified time, saving battery life, by reducing screen use.
-Minimum CPU Speed
Let's say your just going to be listening to music and would like to save battery at the same time, but you dont want to do that because your too lazy to switch back to an application to underclock then return to the normal clock speed when needed again, so with this app, you can specify that when your favourite music player if launched, your device's clock speeds will reduce.
-Maximum CPU Speed
Again, lets say your in a position to overclock your phone to avoid lag while playing a game, but that clock speed may stick for longer for any possible reason, causing battery drain and unnecessary heating up of the device, so you can assign clock speeds which will only trigger when that application is launched.
-Sound Mode
This allows you to set a Sound Mode such as Silent or Vibrate which will be activated when ever the application you selected it for is launched.
-Wifi
Wifi control will alow you to enable wifi whenever a specific application is launched, for example your browser.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How to Use​
Your applications will be displayed in a list alphabetically, tap on the application you want to specify settings for and choose from the menu.
To add more configurations, tap the What to Control button and check the ones you want from the list.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Problem with Phone.apk
Hi there.. Wonderful thought for your app.. 5*.. However when i changed the dpi and set the settings as suggested above.. Phone.apk is still not working..
The problem is the whole system dpi has been changed.. but when iam opening the phone application the phone restarts automatically.. any suggestions for this kind of problem.. If u need i will send both phone.apk and contacts.apk to u if you can help me out..
My Device: Micromax A27
Android Version: 2.3.5
Rooted and init.d support
Please help me in this regard..
And thanks a lot for your hardwork.:good:
You can't set the dpi with this app. But assuming you had it set already and these settings didn't work well with it, lemme test it out and try to fix the issue your facing.
You plan permission control too for this app?
I like it.

Yes I will be in the future but it will be apart from root permissions, I.e you can limit an app to not use the Internet so no ads can be displayed etc. Heres a short list of what I have planned:
-auto wifi start when a specified app is launched
-separate volume control ability for each app
-permission controls
-disabling on boot startup
Great idea. Thanks for this.

auto gps on launch would also be useful for apps like Maps

Superuser freaks out when I try to enable the CPU settings. It just loops over and over and denies it automatically. Otherwise very nicely done!

App Control 0.30 released!
Besides things already said (and besides custom dpi settings for people who may not be on roms fortunate enough to have that feature), I think full screen on certain apps would be a killer feature. Nice app, working on my phone

App Control 0.40 is Live! now with Sound Modes.
Are you working on a fix on the superuser issue
This is nice and all, but for a guy who already bought Tasker this seems kind of pointless. None-the-less, I tried out the app and it is very good at what it does. Good job!

Strange issue on superuser. My problem is that it is baked into the ROM.

Notify-Me :: Lockscreen Notifications. [New v2]

Notify Me! v2 is a lockscreen notification rendering app
A better advanced version for devices running Android 4.3 or above is available from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2804624 ​
derived from the previous project NotifyMe! by TpmKranz.
The XDA thread by original author on previous version can be found here ​
This new version contains some bug fixes, improvements and new features as an addition on the original project.
Features present since version 1.9.1 of project
---------------------------------------------------------
• Display notification popup on lockscreen
• Turn on screen on notification.
• Custom screen timeout after screen light up.
• Interact with the popup via slider or button based interface.
• For more details, please visit previous thread.​Features added new in v2
---------------------------------------------------------
• Screen will not light up in pocket.
• Screen will light up if taken out of pocket within 10 sec of notification arrival.
• Proximity sensor check duration customization.
• Double tap slider to expand/shrink notification (4.1+)
• Lot of codes improved from loop based to event based. More battery friendly.
• Haptic feedback on slider and improved rendering code.
• Notifications open much faster and smoother with slider interface.​--More features planned for future updates.
Download from Play Store

Main screen
​
App's settings
​
Add app screen
[*]And an actual notification
​
The source code is also freely available under GPL license as original project https://github.com/anandbibek/notify_me
Due to my limited knowledge on github, I could not keep previous commits from TpmKranz's Eclipse based project while moving to gradle and Android Studio build structure. Hence I started a new repo with TpmKranz version as base.
Changelog :
---------------------------------------------------------
v 2.1.2
• Fix display light up problems
• Improve proximity sensor recognition
• Fix crashes on successive notification
v 2.1.1
• Fix memory usage of over 60MB. Should be under 20MB now.
• Disable aggressive and in call popup settings. Caused problems if turned on.
• Filtered out permanent and ongoing notifications. Should be better with blacklist mode.
• Disable icons in app chooser (temporary fix for crashes)
If you get too much notification popups, don't use blacklist mode. Or chose the culprit app, turn off "show popup" & "light up" options under its individual setting.
v 2.1.0
• Improved settings page
• Option to show all notifications. Individual apps can be configured for blacklisting by turning off all options or for specific preferences different from default config.
v 2.0.2
• Fix crashing while notification popup.
v 2.0.1
• Allow disabling proximity sensor check.
v 2.0.0 (build 200)
• Screen will not light up in pocket.
• Screen will light up if taken out of pocket within 10 sec of notification arrival.
• Proximity sensor check duration customization.
• Double tap slider to expand/shrink notification (4.1+)
• Lot of codes improved from loop based to event based. More battery friendly.
• Haptic feedback on slider and improved rendering code.
• Notifications open much faster and smoother with slider interface.​--More features planned for future updates.
In this post I'd like to thank the original author TpmKranz for his splendid work on creating such an awesome app that perfectly suited to my needs and I hope is equally true for others. Thanks to him for keeping the app open source in true community spirit. That is what makes it possible for people like me to contribute to it, and also gain valuable knowledge in the process.
I wanted to have some extra features and that is what compelled me to work on the app. While adding the proximity sensor features, I figured out improvements for some parts of the code like changing loops to event based triggers. This was entirely for my personal taste and usage, but I've decided to share my work hoping people will find it useful.
And as per rules and community spirit, the source is once again open for all.
In future updates, I plan to bring blacklist support, multiple notification handling and other improvements, while keeping the app simple and minimalist as it is now.
I'm not a pro in android app development but this is my only 2nd big endeavor after Shareboard. So it's all a great learning opportunity for me in advanced android coding.
I welcome all suggestions and feedback and also help with the code if you could.

Hey looks great so far! I desperately have needed an app that gives me notifications on the lock screen and have been very disappointed with the options so far.
Here's a few suggestions, if you don't mind:
Turn off the screen when you dismiss a notification instead of having it go to the lock screen.
Perhaps some option to remove the notification from the status bar if you dismiss it from the app
Have not used it enough to see its impact on battery but that is the nail in the coffin for any lock screen app
Again, still starting to use it but I hope it will remove the popup if the notification disappears (synced notifications on hangouts)

First of all, thanks for your reply. You're the one and only till now.
About your suggestions, yes they are very useful and good suggestions indeed. I'll try to implement them one by one.
About battery usage, I myself have an OCD about my mobile's battery drain. As far as I've used it, there hasn't been any significant idle drain.
I've seen reports of huge battery drain in previous thread, but in this version, I've improved the code and removed all wait loops and made it event based.
Please let me know how you feel about it after some days of usage
Hi, Thanks for updating / improving this app.
I am using this new version from past one week and so far didn't seen any battery drain, however I am facing an issue with screen light up.
The screen is not awaking / lights up for any notification even the mobile is not in pocket. Generally the screen light up will help me to know there is a new notification.. But in this case i am unable to notice it until I unlock the mobile.
The issue seems with proximity control, can you please provide an option to disable until it works properly.
Once again thanks.
PS: Did you posted regarding this new version in original thread?? Bz lot o them may don't know abt this new version.. It may be the reason for less traffic in thread.

Multiple notification isn't handled in current version. It'd only show the last notification. All others will be there in your notification drawer.
I'm doing some work on it to possibly add it in a future update.

I have been looking for something like this for a while, thanks and thanks for making it a free app
Probably in the future updates you would work on multiple as well i knw how hard thing this is the best thing is wake on notification works I used carbon kk on my Samsung galaxy grand I9082 because of that feature but then missed the tw cam and multi window reverted back now i can try your awesome app thanks a million brother!!!

Hi, thanks for implementing the requested feature. Yes, I am using Xperia P, the proximity sensor is not working all time the screen is not lightning up every time. in previous version(1.9) we don't have this feature so screen will always lights up when ever there is a notification.
Once again thank you.
Sent from Xperia P using Tapatalk
I like the functionality of this app, I was trying to suggest to the PA team to expand peek this way, but they aren't interested, so i will share the concept i made with you too, maybe you can implement some of the concepts behind it, to simplify and polish the interface a little bit.
Link to my post.
Thx for the App.
Congrats on getting featured on the xda portal! This application is neat and has potential, just waiting for multiple noti's
Hey there! Multiple notifications would be awesome! I've quickly drawn up what it might look like.

Woo-hoo. Can't wait. I love your Apps ☺?
Wow! What a cool idea. Saves precious seconds when launching the camera. Working great on my Moto G.
Bug: When my phone is in vibrate or silent mode, launching the camera changes the sound mode to normal.
custom camera setting would be nice. I'm using Camera Zoom FX instead of the built in camera most time.
Just noticed that Snapshot enables the camera when putting the phone into a docking station. It would be nice if this unwanted behaviour could be disabled, because I'm using dock clock.

It doesn't seem like it is working on my Nexus 7. I hold it like stated, but there's no activation. I could help with debugging it. As the tablet doesn't have vibration, I can't completely confirm I'm in the correct position. Maybe having some optional sound or toast would help with calibrating position.
Update v1.10 released
Updated the app to v1.10
You can now choose your favorite camera app (secure lockscreen will not support all apps)

When i try to choose orientation there's no “activate“-button, just a “deactivate“-button and I don't see any option to choose the camera app???

Does not work on cm11 Galaxy I9000!
Latest update broke the app
The latest update disabled the default landscape setting. No camera apps are listed. I'm using Google Camera from the Play Store which replaced the stock camera app on my N5. This may be because per app settings in the new update is limited to Pro versions but it was working just fine earlier.

I just checked and there seems to be a incompatibility on some devices.
Will fix asap.
You should add an option to disable it when phone ring.

Latest update 1.11 works on my device (stated above).
But any screen wake up event (putting into the cradle, normally the lockscreen starts) causes the camera to start.
Fixed!

+1 on cm11, I hope the individual camera app setting can be implemented again without compatibility issues.
Thank you for the fast update, just bought the Pro version.

I have 1 huge issue with this app. I use a dock to charge my phone so whenever I place my phone horizontally on the dock to charge which turns on the screen, the camera launches as well. Can a setting be placed to disable the app working when the phone is being charged?
EDIT: Also the option for the app to be disabled after X seconds after the screen is turned on would be nice. I believe now that after the screen it turned on in portrait mode and any time that it goes landscape after that launches the camera.
Love it
Works great on my rooted stock rom SGS4, would it be possible to choose the camera app you want to use in the settings, so we don't have to choose each time ? I'm an idiot works great.
@Jawomo. Any progress on the sound mode change bug?
Also What does the setting "only when locked" do?

Cometin
What is Cometin
Cometin is a free*, growing collection of tweaks and tricks to optimize your productivity and improve the Android experience.
More information
I can create a separate app for every idea I have. But why shouldn't I put everything in 1 app?
Google announced Dynamic Modules at the IO in 2019
With dynamic features you can split an app into several parts. This is exactly what Cometin is.
Cometin is a growing collection of tricks and tweaks for your Android device, split into modules.
This way you only download the features that you want to use and save your storage space.
Available modules (with some small descriptions)
• Ambient display
bring a customized Ambient display, Always-on-display and wave to wake to your device
• App locker
Lock apps behind a passcode or pattern
• Better rotation
Forces every app to be compatible with every orientation including 180 degrees
• Caffeine
Keep your screen on for a certain amount of time
• Cometin Sync
Sync notifications, and notes between phones and desktops
• Darker brightness
Go below the minimum brightness by applying a dark overlay on top of your screen
• Flip to shhh (beta)
Flip your phone face down to silent notifications (except alarms)
• Heads-up
Hide head-up notifications
• Immersive
Hide statusbar, navigationbar or both
• Parallel
Create a work profile to seperate personal and work
• Remap assistant
Execute a different action when opening the assistant
Is this safe?
Yes! All modules are only served from the Google Play Store, all modules are scanned by Google Play Protect so nothing to worry about!
Installing modules:
The installation of modules is done immediately, and you can use the module immediately after installation.
Updating modules:
Installed modules are automatically updated together with Cometin. No hassle with separate files!
Removing modules:
Module uninstalls do not occur immediately. That is, the device uninstalls them in the background in the next 24 hours.
Request for new features:
Requests for new features are always welcome! However, I cannot promise anything about the actual arrival of these features.
Request your features via my support ticket system. This way you can keep track of the status of features.
Need help or got problems?
If you are stuck or need more information, don't hesitate and contact me via Telegram, XDA or my support ticket system. That way I can best help you.
Did I got your attention?

I've enabled Ambient Display module. When I receive a notification, screen wakes up showing the stock lockscreen and after a second lag, the Ambient Display shows up.

I enabled it too on my pixel 2 xl and disabled the built in ambient display but when i get a notification there's also a 1 sec lag and shows my stock and then the actual ambient display you have made :/ thanks for working on a fix

Always on display
this app is awesome! i turned on Ambient Display on my Pixel 3xl; is there any way i can have always on display with the new customized display? Right now, i only see it whenever i get a notification.
Nice app OP. Is there network speed indicator that show download and upload speed in notification in future? Mine using mia1 stock rom, if this app can achieve that i would be happier coz no need to use edexposed anymore
When I remapped assistant, it broke calling up the Google Assistant
When I remapped Google Assistant, it broke it. Google Assistant can no longer be summoned by my voice. Is this a bug? Pixel 3 Android 10.
Nice idea! For now just testing ambient display.
Would you consider adding the option to unlink ring and notification volumes? Linked behaviour is very annoying.
Thanks again for you work!
I'm trying out Ambient display on my tablet and I'm not sure I'm using it right. It's enabled, and I've customized it, but the ambient display doesn't turn on my screen when I get a notification. Is it also possible for me to make the ambient display show when I open the cover of my tablet (my case is one of those kinds that have a flap to cover to the front).
Like the app lots - do you think adding an always on to the ambient display might be a good idea for anyone with an amoled screen but no native option?
Like oneplus owners?
Like me... ?
Hello
First of all thank this application.It is essential for me.
I've enabled Ambient Display module. I need when I'm studying to get notifications on the lock screen and see a header of them.
Now when a notification arrives there is a small lag when you press on the screen to enter.
It would be great to be able to configure the time that these notifications are on the screen, as well as the position in the same and the amount of notifications that one needs.
Best regards and thanks again!
Reporting after a couple of days of testing.
Just used the ambient display and it looks fantastic.
Works everytime too.
Apart from the lag that others have noted, i noticed 2 other issues:
a) when this is enabled, screen dimming & screen off seems to be forced. I've noticed the default time reverting to 15 seconds. Even if there is activity on the screen, it still forces the screen dimming and turning off.
b) there seems to be a noticeable increase in battery drain.
If I uninstall the app will it uninstall all modules right then?

I've also noticed screen off time reverting to 15 seconds. Is Ambient Display working fine?
Using the Cloud Dashboard and I noticed Microsoft's "Your Phone" application which connects my Windows computer with my phone no longer connects. Does the Cloud Dashboard preempt this connection? Both applications show my phone's (Pro 7) notifications. Your Phone also gives easy access to photos, allows for SMS messaging from a Windows computer and, with the next Windows feature update, will allow for calling from a computer via a phone. I'd like to keep both application up and running.

The display of ambient display works well. The lag issue that others have mentioned, exists. Due to ambient display however, i see some quirks with forced screen locking etc

Battery Saving tips for all devices
Good news is you no longer need rooted device on Android 11+ to enter device in doze​
* Turn off lockscreen notifications, you will surprise with battery backup.
* Use pockect mode if you keep your device in pocket most of the time
* Give the following adb command
Code:
adb shell settings put global device_idle_constants inactive_to=2592000000,motion_inactive_to=2592000000,light_after_inactive_to=20000,light_pre_idle_to=30000,light_max_idle_to=86400000,light_idle_to=1800000,light_idle_factor=1.5,light_idle_maintenance_max_budget=30000,light_idle_maintenance_min_budget=10000,min_time_to_alarm=60000
Please note that on some devices you need to follow this step again upon restarting the device.
to issue adb command you need adb SDK installed on your PC/Laptop https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f3Wes8Gp2hJ3bjcYHoNVsEG5nGh9PqYW/view?usp=sharing.
Make sure you have USB debugging on from Developer Options and USB driver installed from your device manufacture to connect to PC.
* For rooted device the power saving is enabled automatically you can choose one of the doze mode the best suits your device.
* Close all unnecessary apps to get nice battery backup
Feel free to post here if you required
Awesome! Does this have double tap to sleep/wake? Also, on one plus there is screen off gestures, does this have that or will it at least retain those from factory?

Hi, Thanks for using the app.
Fingerprint works on all devices for only on devices with In-Display sensor to get it to work you must be rooted and you need to provide your existing PIN/PASS in the settings so app will automatically enter it. You need to press n hold outside the clock and fingerprint sensor will come up
Soon I am goint to update the Settings UI where I will add a lot customisations.
Stay tuned
I cannot access the in- display fingerprintsensor by pressing the AOD- Screen, although I entered the PIN in the App settings.
Its not shown.

Did you save the pin first?
You need to press n hold outside the widget. Pls see the screenshot attached
The pin will not show even if you save it for security purpose. In case you want to chang the PIN just enter it again and save
I tried it several times.
I saved the PIN
I pressed and held at the recommended area but no fingerprintarea appeard
Hi,
i´m using your app on a OP 7 Pro. I do have no problems so far. The only issue is the batterie drain that´s pretty high. At the end of the day i´m at 50% batterie left, without your AOD at 75%. But so far, very nice app, thank you very much for your work. :good:
