Hello guys, Im sorry if this thread is already here somewhere but I didnt manage to find any info about this one.
Basically I've just bought a new phone (Xperia SP) and one of the very few things I actually dont like or miss here is the HTC Sense settings features when it comes to incoming/outcoming calls and their controlling just by moving the phone around. I was very used to that and loved it with my good old HTC Desire, may it rest in piece.
I havent managed to find any app for that on market, which could be aswell caused by the fact that English is not my native language and I dont really know which keywords should I use to find such app.
In case u know some apps that can do such things Id like just to point out the main functions that Id like to get on my Xperia:
- first of all Id like my display to lock temporarily as soon as I reach my ear with the phone when I pick up a call, to prevent unintended actionc caused by my troll ear.
- the feature that lowered ringtone's volume to minimum when u picked the phone from a table or just turned it upside-down.
- and finally the feature that allowed u to quickly turn on loudspeaker just by turning the phone upside-down after answering the call.
- +the pocket mode would be nice as well but I can live without that one.
Thank you in advance for any app-tips <3
Hi all,
Forgive me if this has been covered as it seems like it would be a pretty common complaint (even through i've searched the forums for 40 mins now with no luck of finding anything on it).
Basically is there a way for me to view my notifications in the same orientation that the alarm clock shows. As it is right now, I have my phone on my desk with the screen facing me, and every time somebody texts me or I receive a general notification I have to literally try to decode it in the 1 second that it shows up (upside down).
Any suggestions? I don't want to have to flip my phone upsidedown (with left handed mode enabled) every time I want to read a notification the right way up - this seems like a huge functional flaw in samsungs edge screen.
Thanks, Steve

I wish! Makes no sense the way it is, especially when the night clock is the right way up but nothing else is.
Only thing I have found to work (temporarily) is to open an app that can be rotated, then turn your phone so the edge is at the bottom, and then shut the flip cover. Now anything on the edge is the right way up. But as soon as you open an app the right way up again (or go home) then it goes upside-down again.
I think it's an accelerometer or gyroscope sensitivity issue. Mine works the way it should most of the time. On the times that it doesn't, I just move it a little bit to either the left or the right and the display orientation is corrected...
Yes but if you then place it on the table and let the edge turn off, then get a message the notification will be upside down again
Like I said, mine works as it should on most occasions. Lying flat on a table, I just rub the edge and the notifications are facing me.
When they don't, a simple nudge to the left or right re-orients the edge and the notifications face me again...

Hello from germany.
My LG G5 just broke and i send it in for repair. A friend handed me an old Moto G3 so i have a phone until i get mine back. Which i was told, coud take up to 8 weeks :crying:
Years ago, i loved to play, flash and tweak my phones, but as a working single mom, i lost the time to do so and i just needet my phone to "work".
Right know i'm quite irritated with the alarm clock and the camera app. I know its not a wise thing, to compare a Moto G3 with a LG G5, but surprisendly its not the speed that brothers me.
What I'm missing is the possibility to have diffrent volume settings for diffrent alarms.
Like low setting for wakeup, Max Settings for the playground and so on.. And yes, the alarm clock is my most used feature to manage my daily shedule.
And the camera app is just Ugh.. Yeah i know, i'm spoiled
Any suggestions, how i could "fix" my problems?
The G3 has an unlooked bootloader and runs with the latest stockrom right and i have permission to do what ever i want with the device.
Thanks for any suggestions

I was looking at alarm clock apps and found one that has different volume for each alarm. Maybe it will work for you.

Cheers!
I don't think your problem is the ROM, but the apps... There are literally hundreds of alarm clock and camera apps in the Play Store, none of which require rooting or a custom ROM (although changing the "default" camera on a Moto can be tough without root).
I can't really suggest any specific apps, I have used Camera ZOOM FX in the past and enjoyed it (got the Premium version for like 10 cents years ago on a special), and @grantdb mentioned an alarm clock app, but otherwise it is trial and error and Google searches.
Hi everybody!
Since I last changed phone (I went from a Samsung A8 to a Samsung A70), when the alarm goes off, the phone uses a ringtone while the smartwatch uses a completely different one.
Did somebody noticed that?
i have tested this app on the s22 ultra and it works perfectly even the aod works do not use override as it no longer is necessary, note that the s22 ultra is not officially supported so you will have to go in cutout settings and adjust the positioning and size of the ring, this is finicky but it's possible, these are all issues that were worked on before, the app has a tendency to crash when adjusting the position.
Arc Lighting adds a highly customizable ring of light around the camera cutout of your phone. You can use this light with various indicators such as audio visualization, notification lighting, critical or low battery warnings, as well as a charge indicator. The ring can also appear on your Always-On display. (to make aod work you need to make sure you have downloaded always on amoled and activated it, you also need to make sure samsung stock aod and samsung edge lighting is disabled under samsung display settings you also need to make sure that aod is enabled under arclighting with override set to off)
Features:
- Highly customizable lighting for holepunch devices. Select a variety of colors, animations, and styles.
- Always show ring with various gradient effects (add multiple colors and make them spin for a visual experience)
- An adjustable glow effect that can be turned on or off
- Notification lighting both when the display is on or off (update planned for only the lockscreen or only inapp)
- Music lighting that syncs the light to your music
- Battery indicator lighting for charging, low and critical battery states. (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appear)
- Device overheating indicator for gamers and power users (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appear)
- Arc Lighting can be configured to match the color of your wallpaper, the app you're currently in, or both!
This app requires certain permissions to function correctly.
Accessibility: This permission is used for the ring to appear over your lock screen, always-on display, and for accessing the color of the current app you're in. This permission is required for the app to function properly.
Draw Over Other Apps: This permission allows the ring to show on top of other apps. This permission is required for the app to function properly.
Microphone Access: This permission is used to analyze the internal device audio for the music lighting. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to enable the Audio Visualizer indicator for the ring.
Storage Access: This permission is used to get the color of your wallpaper. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to use the color of your wallpaper for the ring.
Notification access: This permission is used to change the color of the ring after notifications
Burn-in concerns: Some Android displays may suffer from mild burn-in if a single item is displayed on the screen for an extremely significant amount of time. If you are concerned about this, feel free to enable the rotation animation in ring settings. That will ensure the display is constantly changing. Alternately, you can disable the default effect to only show the ring while an indicator is being triggered. Note: Samsung Galaxy devices come with burn-in protection that moves the pixels a little each time.

It's a horrible thing. My ex-wife passed from covid at age 52 2 weeks ago
can i test this app please?
jesus christ he died? RIP fellow dev
Unfortunate news.
Hey zzcool would I be able to get a code from ya for gs22 ultra thanks man, and sorry to hear about your friend.
Looks like a really nice app.
Has anyone experienced any kind of burn in with it? That would be a bit of a concern for me using this app.
Yes the original owner of this account unfortunately passed away due to Covid last year, I am a family member (cousin) who has taken over the account and ensuring the work he was working on is either finished and or passed back to the original owner. I would also appreciate you removing the deceased full name from the post @zzcool

There is no burn in, the animation fades in and out as well as a colour changing rotation.

the name has been removed i meant no disrespect i just wanted to honor him for the help he gave me i also thought he deserved to be mentioned on xda as he was a known member here i didn't think straight, and apologizing for doubting him, in the past when he stopped responding after i paid him i received a mysterious email claiming they have my sourcecode and that they wish to sell it to me, i made a thread about this on xda which plenty who are aware of this app probably read i didn't name him but i am sure some knew him and thats what i was trying to correct to take back anything i said saying i thought i got scammed and this is guilt that hurts right now as i didn't know, it had been months i didn't know what was happening, i didn't doubt him until suddenly someone emails me trying to sell me the code, i waited months for him and didn't think any of it.
i apologize for doubting him and i have felt bad about this ever since it happened which i told you in the original email that i sent to you, i have been scammed a lot by many i wasn't thinking straight and for that i apologize and have apologized multiple times i hope you forgive me as i didn't know, hence why i wanted to take this thread to mention it to correct my original assumption it was meant as an apology not the other way around.
i didn't mean any of this and i hope you know that he was a good friend and i enjoyed working with him he also was very compassionate it wasn't just work with him i enjoyed the time i spent knowing him i miss him
Hi, would like to request arc lighting unlock codes for my s22 ultra... Thanks !
Hello. Sad news. My condolences.
Thanx for keeping this going, though.
Still possible to get a code for
Arc Lighting?
Thanx for the replay
Could I also ask for the code to the programme?
Kind regards.
Would love to try the code please
Would it be possible for you to also send me a code for the S22?
Also, thanks for taking over the project and my condolences. I recently recovered from COVID and I can attest that I hope no one ever has to go through it.
Are you taking questions about the app or suggestions?
My condolendes ❤
Can i try it please?

well i am not sure of the future of the app currently but yes i am taking suggestions some things that i already know needs to be done or well not all of them it's just ideas i wanted originally on this app
realtime toggle needs to be removed as you have to manually turn it on or off, and the positioning system needs to be simplified, right now it's extremely finicky to adjust the position, positioning also needs to be possible despite a phone being supported, basically you have a menu you enter for positioning which makes the circle a clear color with an easy to adjust menu so rather than a menu mixed with everything else you get an isolated menu that turns off the ring and makes it a solid color, once you exit that menu the realtime toggle will be off.
some bugs
glow causes the ring to be frozen white very old bug
music light sometimes works sometimes not, some indicators makes the others turn off entirely i don't know how this works exactly i just know some make the others turn off.
crashes when adjusting position of the ring
sometimes the ring just stops working at which point you have to force restart it and redo the accessability permission
homescreen/app ring rather than just always show ring, so you can have the ring behave a specific way on the homescreen and inapp as well as everywhere so the ring can become a wallpaper addition, these features were already in my arc lighting navbar app so maybe this can be ported considering arc lighting was built off the navbar sourcecode
landscape issues this is a very known bug something that has an unknown cause as landscape works for me on my s22 ultra sometimes sometimes not
adding indicator options for each color so you can have color segments doing what you want like for example if you have one color spinning around then this one handles notifications while a color on the other side of the ring handles something else, this was an advanced idea though and not something i expect to be implemented.
turning off various app notfications right now you have to set it to transparent to turn it off.
not saying any of this will be done it's just what i wanted with the app originally
