[Q] Disable Twilight/lux during screenshots

Hello, I am new here.
Whenever I take a screenshot on my phone with Twilight enabled, it saves the picture with the filter over it.
Is there any way to disable this?
I use a One plus One rooted in case that helps.
Thank you in advance!

I use Twilight and when I take screenshots I find it easiest to just pull the notification drawer down and tap the pause button. If you don't have a twilight settings bar in the notification drawer:
1. Open Twilight
2. Scroll down, tap "more settings"
3. Uncheck "Hide from status bar"
(I have "Start quick settings" checked also)
*Check screenshot for exact setting
Good luck! [emoji4]

Can't delete App Icon from Panel

I had the Google Photo app icon on my Favorites panel. No problems. Google Photo app had a mandatory upgrade, which I performed yesterday. The icon for Google Photo became non-responsive, throwing an "App not Found" error message. At some point it changed from the Photo icon to the generic green Droid Dude icon. If I try to drag it off the panel, like you can with any other icon to remove it from the panel, it just snaps right back onto the panel and doesn't go anywhere.
Anyone know how to delete an "app not found" app/icon from the Edge favorites panel?

There must be a system app that controls the edge that can be wiped... then just set up your edge panels again.

"Select input keyboard" notification

So I don't know if this is a feature or a bug but I saw that whenever i had the keyboard open i would get a "Select input keyboard" notification (you can see it in the first image). When i open the notifications i get the dialog in the second picture.
So i went straight on disabling all the other keyboards: i disabled Swype and Google app (because of Google Vocal Typing or something like that) from the apps settings so the AOSP keyboard is the only one left (see third image) but again no luck, the notification is still there. I also tried replacing the AOSP keyboard with Google keyboard and ensuring that it was the only one active but it still didn't work. Is this standard Android behavior? Or possibly an Alcatel bug? A bug in my software? That thing is annoying as hell.

I get that dialog when I press a small button to the right of the nav bar (it only appears when the keyboard pops up). Did you try to longpress the notification and then press the "i" symbol, then disable notifications from that source?

I always get that dialog, even with only one keyboard app installed/enabled, so that's not normal.
By the way, i tried disabling the notification but since it comes from Android System itself it cannot be disabled but only set to priority mode.

It drove me crazy for a bit cause I'm a little OCD with my screen, but I just ignore it now.

[APP][5.0+][HTC only] 3 fingers fullscreen - hide navigation bar smartly

3 FINGERS FULLSCREEN
ABOUT
I wrote this application because I thought there was no good way to turn on/off "AUTO ROTATE" function.
If I always turn on "AUTO ROTATE", it usually rotate the device incidentally.
I don't like to turn on/off from notification list because of too many steps.
Here, I utilize 3 finger click feature (HTC only) to turn on/off "AUTO ROTATE".
Also, I add some convenient functions to hide navigation bar.
Hiding navigation bar in landscape mode is usually the best result because users wants to see real fullscreen.
INSTALL
1. adb install three_fingers_fullscreen.apk
2. adb shell pm grant com.kenzyun.three_fingers_fullscreen android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
USAGE
using 3 fingers click to trigger "AUTO ROTATE" and "HIDE NAVIGATION BAR" features
OPTIONS
1. Portrait Hide StatusBar
Hide StatusBar and Navigation Bar at the same time in portrait mode
2. Landscape HIde StatusBar
Hide StatusBar and Navigation Bar at the same time in landscape mode
3. Auto Hide Navigation Bar
For HTC Sense7, swiping hided navigation will dismiss the status.
With this options, it will hide again automatically in 2 seconds.
4. Show Notification Icon
Show or Hide the notification icon for this application
5. White List
Only the package name in the whitelist can hide statusbar or navigation bar
You can get package name of the application by "package name viewer" on Play Store.
Please use comma "," if you want to add more than one package name like "com.facebook.katana,com.evernote"

I've updated the apk file today.
If the feature is enabled, it vibrates twice.
If the feature is disabled, it vibrates once.

version 1.3
SetTimer for Auto Hide Navigation bar

Nice app, thanks.
My suggestion for improvement would be to reset the timer everytime you press a nav bar button. So if I press back, for example, I get another few seconds before the nav bar disappears.

update v1.4 to reset timer after window changed.
Open this feature at Settings > Accessibility > 3 fingers fullscreen [ON]

Its a really great idea for an app. But I unfortunately can't get it to install: if I tap on the apk from within android, I get a "parse error" like when you try to install a lollipop+ apk. The adb method fails with an error message "install failed: older sdk".
My device: HTC M8_UL running stock Android 4.4.2 with Sense 6. S-Off + root.

Do you forget to type "adb shell pm grant com.kenzyun.three_fingers_fullscreen android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS" ?

New version is here.
I change the application name because the purpose is different.

[BUG] Tab scrolling in Chrome

When a website changes the stock address bar to anything other than white, I am unable to swipe to scroll to the next tab.
For instance, androidpolice.com changes the address bar to blue and I am unable to swipe to another tab, left or right.
Anyone else experiencing the same or willing to try to replicate?

I'm seeing the same issues. I did reach out to Essential support but haven't heard from them yet.

I had this problem but once I used the whitelist editor app it went away. I had to also disable my navbar in chrome but I was able to pull down to switch tabs on every website after that. If you need the navbar back just swipe up from the bottom.

I've noticed something similar with my Facebook app. When you try to pull up on the bar at the bottom of the app it immediately snaps back and will not allow you to access anything within it.

I found that Chrome Beta has no issues with scrolling, as colored address bars does not extend into the status bar as they do in Chrome.

What's weird is that I tried this - https://forum.xda-developers.com/es...ured-how-to-make-camera-flush-status-t3682107 and it fixed the chrome issue
