[APP][2.0+] Statusbar enabler in full screen app - Smart Statusbar

This app is developed by the same Dev who makes the popular Android Apps Button Savior, Smart Taskbar, and Everywhere Clipboard.
Smart Statusbar is the first and only statusbar enabler for full screen apps on android devices. No more lose track of time or important info on statusbar when you are reading, playing, or watching movie.
To enable statusbar, just do a simple top down swipe from top of screen. By default, statusbar will shows 5 seconds. You can also adjust the timeout to your preference in settings.
Please note. This app doesn't work on Honeycomb and ICS based Tablets. They are very different from phone version of Android. So no statusbar hidden problem on those tablets. So do not download if you want to use it on ICS or HC tablets.
NO ROOT REQUIRED!
FEATURES
☆ Reveal statusbar in full screen apps
☆ Gesture activation
☆ Works on 2.0 and up
☆ Adjustable statusbar enabling duration
☆ Vibration hint

jerryfan2000 thanks for bring another amazing tool for us. This app is simply amazing. wow!
By the way, is it possible to disable statusbar by gesture instead of timeout?

This feature is already in my mind. I will for sure add it.

wow! really, really great app! I'm going to do a review on this for my YouTube channel. My viewers are going to LOVE this!
Great job! awesome settings, easy to use and understand. Great beginning tutorial!
Very very well done simple app.
cheers

I thought my setting was too few too simple. Great that you likes the simple setting design.

Hello,
Is that possible to add a mod in order to make all the applications in full screen ?

Great app, I've got a handfull of requests/observations but please don't think I'm complaning at all, the app does exactly what it's supposed to, I've just got a lot of idea's. I second Prockkaii's post about making all apps full screen, I would love to see that added to this. I know in CM7 there's you can make holding menu hide the statusbar but you have to do that for every app and I don't believe it sticks after a reboot. Also a bottom statusbar option would be nice and just so you know when I tried using the bottom statusbar in cyanogen I couldn't bring the statusbar up with the top gesture either. It would also be nice to be pulling the shade down from the gesture instead of swiping once to bring up the statusbar and then a second time to slide down the shade. It would also be nice if the bar would pop up automaticaly on a notification.

In reply the request from IvanNCase and Prockkaii. I indeed had plan to add this feature but i am still trying. It is not easy. So maybe will never make it at all. But I will try my best to introduce this feature.

Request: try to make it use less Ram if you can

Thanks for the feedback.
In fact, my fear is that I'd used my Galaxy s2 for about 6 months, and during this period I'd never activate the rotation and all my applications are showing the status bar.
And now on a white screen, I see that there is a mark of the status bar. On right side, I can even see the mark of the battery.
So that's why I would like to have this feature and not remove the status bar.
But again thanks for you apps.

I think you have a screen issue like me.
I'm currently using the pixel fixer in order to fix that. I'm running it for about 2 or 3h per day, let's see what happens in 2 weeks.

Awesome!
Working like a charm so far! HTC Inspire 4G, LordClockan ICS 4.0.3. Keep up the good work! Exactly what I was looking for.

tried this out on my Galaxy Nexus and it worked perfectly as described. However, there is some lag that it particularly noticeable when scrolling through home screens and the app drawer. Once this lag is fixed/eliminated then this app will be perfect!

Cool man.. its a very useful app..

Great application.
I wanted something like this on Android since i've tested iOS 5 on one of my friends iPhone 4 that i've been asked to jailbreak.
Thanks. Works great on Desire HD with ICS.

great feature, but there seems to be small lag between swiping and popping up..maybe you can find a way to remove this lag..but i really like it!

No lag here. The status bar appears instant as soon as I get the finger off the screen.

Hello, _Pablo_
Thank you for your feedback. GPS is only used in Atrium for Facebook when you perform a checkin. In case you see gps icon blinking in the status bar and Checkin screen is not opened, it means gps is used by a different app. Please send me a private message and we will look into it

Just downloaded, will be keeping my eye on the progress of this app. Far better than the official app. Keep it up dev.

Thanks for your answer,
I checked it again, and it's strange...
I cleared data and cache for atrium, put icon on my home screen and...
first run, gps icon started to blink immediately after run Atrium, next I connected with facebook (icon still blinking)...
I touched "back" button to go to my home screen and gps icon immediately stopped blinking.
again started Atrium from notification and no gps icon active.
I tried few times and sometimes running Atrium turns gps on, sometimes not.

I've checked this issue and it looks like it is your system specific... at least I was unable to recreate such app behavior on all my test devices I would recommend using approach suggested by LordManhattan, or trying LBE Privacy Guard software that can limit access to GPS service for all your apps you don't need GPS for (this solution requires rooted device).

[APP][4.2+] Daydream Launcher

Ever wanted to launch that fancy Daydream screensaver easier? In your Android 4.2+ device's settings, you are only given the options to launch Daydream while docked or while charging.
Now, there is an easier way simply to launch Daydream, right from your home screen, no matter if you are docked, charging, or neither. Just press the icon, and Daydream will start.
I have heard a few people ask for such a shortcut, so I made this; if you have any suggestions or problems to report, please let me know. Also, this is ad-free and requires no permissions.
Google Play link: http://bit.ly/XuPPmv
Also, if you want the source, I will look into putting that up somewhere, too, but it really is a simple shortcut application.
Last thing: if anybody wants to make the feature and/or promo graphics for the app on Google Play, post them here, and I will probably use them.
I hope this shortcut helps somebody out there!
03/31/13:
Thanks for the nice comments, guys.
I know this is no excuse, but I have been really busy. However, I got going this week, and have looked into adding more features.
The popular request seems to be for the daydream to start when the screen becomes idle. Well, I have included that, kind of. Some of the features I have added were hard to do, given the way that daydream was set up by Google. There will be a Daydream Launcher Plus app for 99 cents on Google Play that includes many new features and will help to further my development. Also, the current free app will be getting a minor performance update. I hope you enjoy whichever app you choose to use! And, I love all feedback, good and bad (but constructive ).
Have fun, XDAers!

Would it be possible for this to launch daydream after a while of the phone being idle?

Thanks for the app I was looking for something so I could leave poweramp on and not get image burn in, like a screen saver, which this does -though I notice I have to turn off screen timeout (presuming in all modes one needs to?)
Thanks
Edit: just changed my "car" profile in my profile settings to screen timeout "never", so that I guess easily enough solves it

I know this is an older post but wanted to point out that modern led screens are very very hard to burn and it would take years n years of a solid non moving image to burn in, long after you would have retired most phones. Have you ever seen an image burned into any phone?

I have the Samsung Captivate with the Super AMOLED screen. Apparently some image burn in can occur, as I set power amp music player screen to not turn off when playing, and after not even that much use (maybe more than i realized), leaving it on in the car sometimes, now when it's a solid screen, such as solid grey, I can lightly see the buttons (play, rewind, fast forward, etc.) burned in, so wanted to avoid further burn in.

Great app
I just try it and can say that is great app. It is be more better if you make that daydream app start when screen in idle. That be perfect. Thanks again for your work.

Wearable Widgets for Gear 2

Wearable Widgets (beta) for Gear 2 is just out on the Samsung store. You can now use any mobile widget to show up on Gear 2 screen. The feature is really great and you can also control the widget from gear 2 like pass touch inputs to phone.
I have enabled zooper widget and use it to show time and weather and call tasker objects.
It is a bliss on Gear 2
Check it out.
You can join the google+ community by clicking on going to below link

This app is made by Udell Enterprises Inc

Awesome
This is a GREAT app!

Awesome app! One of the most useful apps available. Thanks!

SUPER ! ..Can I just add one widget?

Awesome. I installed it immediately. Off course for Tasker. I use Launch-X widget in which i create the shortcuts. But i find it to slow, especially when the phone is off.
I also used it to display my tasks, so i could read and fill in the items into another task app. Of the first section it was perfect. But when the screen of the watch is off and turned on again, the widget is reset for the first items. Not to the last scrolled position.

You can add only one widget per device..
I use zooper to add only my functions as a single widget.. Calendar, time , date , battery life and tasker icons

If you read the first post, you'd know the dev of this app isn't the OP. To answer your question though, the dev left this on G+
"Clarification for Gear 1 & 2 owners: Currently, the Wearable Widgets app has two editions, both with a significant limitation:*
• The one available through Google Play (including this beta group) does not support Gear 1 & 2 devices.
• The one you can download through Samsung's app store (including via the Gear Manager app) only supports a single widget at a time.
The reasons for this are complicated, but are generally due to a number of restrictions that Samsung has put in place. We are working to develop a solution to both of these issues, and will release it as soon as we can - but for now, this is how things stand, I'm afraid.
Thank you for your understanding, and your patience."

Just change the setting for what is shown on wake to last app / screen.

That means I need to go to the wearable widgets app continually before I am 'done' doing whatever I'm doing

The developer has indicated they are working on the ability to make this a watch face. I am looking forward to that update.

This just rocked my world... I don't know why I didn't think of that. Duh. Thank you.

Thank You
That's great, Thank You.

As I've been using it - I actually don't mind having it not be the main watchface. What I've done instead is make it accessible from one of the 9 shortcuts from the Multi-Watch "swipe-up" launcher panel. That way I can still have the customizable watchfaces of multi-watch, but when I want I can launch an info panel widget that has time, date, watch battery level, currently connected wifi SSID, current weather w/ 5-day forecast AND my next 3 calendar appointments. Using a customized Zooper widget for this. I've made a request to Zooper to allow adding Google tasks list items and the phone's volume state to a widget.

[App][4.2+] Widget Screensaver

Turn any widget into a screensaver!
Android has a native screen saver option (yes, I also forgot about that) that was called Daydream before Daydream VR was a thing and is now just called "Screen Saver".
I was surprised not a single screen saver app allowed you to put a widget inside the screen saver, so I quickly whipped up this app to do exactly that.
Now you can reuse that old tablet or phone (with Android 4.2+) as a night stand with your favorite widget for instance!
You can also show your calendar, the latest news, the location of your friends (see my Magical Location Clock app!), or use one of those apps where you can completely design a widget yourself.
The ecosystem is the limit!
The app has burn-in protection, support for multiple widgets, profiles and Tasker support for switching profiles, along with several other settings.
If you have any suggestions, please let me know!
Frequently asked questions:
Widget Screensaver doesn't work?
Please explain what's not working so I can fix it. If any crashes occur, submit them so I can see them and if not, please tell me what does work and what steps you've taken until the problem occurs.
Widget Screensaver doesn't work for this widget?
Please tell me which widget suffers from the problem (with screenshots and link) so I can try and fix it.
Widget Screensaver doesn't work on my Huawei/Honor device running EMUI? I only see default screensavers!
Unfortunately this is due to Huawei blocking third party screensavers. Check this post from XDA for a workaround: https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...ver-on-huawei-and-honor-devices-running-emui/
The command to use is "adb shell settings put secure screensaver_components nl.jolanrensen.widgetscreensaver/.WidgetScreensaverService"
Can Widget Screensaver be used as always on display or when not charging?
While things like detecting when the screen is covered don't work, it is possible to start the screensaver anytime the screen turns off using Tasker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm). Check out this profile I made: https://taskernet.com/shares/?user=...&id=Profile:Start+Screensaver+When+Screen+Off
For more help you can visit the XDA thread or email me at [email protected]
I'll try to respond as quickly as possible, but it's just me, a student with a hobby, so forgive me if I cannot always respond immediately.
You can download the app from XDA labs at https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/nl.jolanrensen.widgetscreensaver or at the Google play store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.jolanrensen.widgetscreensaver

Updated to v1.5 and hopefully fixed some crashes that some people experienced!

v1.8 already. Plenty more bug fixes from crashes submitted by you!
Thanks for all the kind responses/reviews on Reddit/xda labs and the play store

Feature Request: Burn-in protection setting > movement = 1 pixel / minute, then large jump every hour. Less distraction when docked and sitting at desk. Thanks.

Thanks for the feedback! I agree it's a bit distracting to look at currently, I'll see what I can do
On another note I see some crashes can still happen, so I've gotta fix those too

This can be way more cool if there somehow mod to enable screensaver any time, like always on display, not only on charger or stand wall.

What you can do perhaps is use Tasker and an app like Daydream launcher to start the screensaver even when you're not charging.

Is this useable only when charged? And if not, is it not battery consuming?

The native android screen saver feature is only running while charging or docked. So yes, this is only running while charging.

Great project!!
One feature to consider is an option to disable the click-action(s) of the widget itself.
For a music-widget it is great, that I can pause/resume while staying in screen saver (! unintended gem !)
But for a calendar/agenda-widget, I might not want my agenda to open.
Again great project, coffee on its way to you or a Grolsch

Don't worry, the touch on the widget was intended haha, I'm making a widget currently that animates upon touch so I needed it. But I like the idea being able to turn it off, so it's going in my to-do list
And thank you very much

I think you figured out the answer!

This tool is totally incompatible with KWGT. I think the issue is that you need to click the widget to configure it and clicking on widgets with the screensaver active is making it impossible to interact with whatever pops up.
I think the screen saver needs to be turned off before sending the click to the widget. If this isn't default behavior, it should at least be an option (and maybe auto selected based on the app name of the widget).
A faster animation mode would be nice too ... have the widget slowly sliding over the screen

Are you considering adding the ability to show more than 1 widget? There are some small widgets that I would like to use at the same time because they work well together and they don't take up the whole screen so burn-in protection can still work

Also I have a quick suggestion, widget's horizontal and vertical sizes should have separate sliders for different screen orientations. Widget size is messed up with some widgets such as spotify's when you rotate the screen

I'll get back to your suggestions tomorrow, but first I'd like to share something for people that have been asking for a way to use the screensaver as an always on display.
This was actually very easy to do with Tasker, so if you have Tasker, enjoy: https://taskernet.com/shares/?user=...&id=Profile:Start+Screensaver+When+Screen+Off
Yes, this also makes the screensaver start if you're not docked or charging

Yes unfortunately... EMUI removed the functionality... However, Android is Android so XDA has a solution https://www.xda-developers.com/how-...ver-on-huawei-and-honor-devices-running-emui/

Thanks for the tip! I'm working on compatibility with some widgets. Some don't resize properly and some, like you said, require touch to be set up. I'm thinking about maybe a set-up screen where you can resize the widget and preview how large it'll get. This will also allow touch set-ups then. However this probably will take some time as I have numerous bugs to fix and it's just me haha.

I am considering it, especially now more people ask for it. What would you think about splitting the screen in two and having the widgets move around in their halves? I think more than two widgets would definitely get tricky, especially on smaller displays...
Suggestion noted! I agree it shouldn't be like this

Cool Idea and Well Build App
?

This app can keep multiple widgets at screensaver since 2015.
