Paranoid Android notification peek

This is paranoid android's notification peek in APK format. Almost same as active display if anyone wants to try it. https://github.com/lzanita09/Notifi...1.0-20140504/NotificationPeekPort-release.apk

It looks cool but I couldn't get it to work.

Looks really cool but doesn't work on GS4 mini 9190 running carbon rom
reverted back to active display

Link is dead. I had to actually look it up on Google just to see what it was. Overall, it looks nice seems to have quite a bit more functions over Motorola's Active Display. If I can find the .apk I may give it a go.
Latest Build
Found the latest build.
Just had a chance to mess with it. It works, but not real well. The screen wakes up when you get a notification but if you don't open the notification right then and there and let the phone go back to sleep it can not be reawakened just by moving the phone like Active Display. You actually have to turn the screen on via the power button and then unlock the phone to check the notifications bar. I did send myself a bunch of notifications and thought it was cool how I could swap between them. I wish Active Display allowed for that feature. Also, the icons are a lot nicer than Moto's Active Display. Overall, I think this app will be pretty cool once all the bugs are worked out of it.

That is the intended use of Peek - it is only active for 10 seconds after receiving a notification. In theory, the screen shouldn't wake at all unless you move the device within those ten seconds since it is designed for both IPS and AMOLED screens and prevents unnecessary screen-on time.

No what I mean is that with Motorola's Active Display if you wave your hand or move the phone after the notification screen time out it'll show you the notifications again. As long as you don't push the power button to wake and unlock it you can still view the notifications via the Active Display. With the Peek display you get the notification once and then that's it until the next notification. Moving the phone or waving in front of the proximity sensor won't rewake to check notifications from the peek screen.
Don't get me wrong, I like the PA Peek app, I just wish I could check the notifications indefinitely like I do the Active Display. I wish the Active Display would let you cycle through your notifications like Peek. I'll definitely keep an eye on the Peek app, hopefully they get it sorted to where you can wake it by moving the phone or waving across the proximity sensor.

Notifcations are upsidedown when on a table with the edge screen facing me.

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...

[Q] customis the smart cover lock screen

Hi all,
I am using smart cover for my mate 7, my question is how can I customis or edit the smart cover lock screen to add for example extra page or open, dial, send SMS, open the open the call log or change the background!
Thanks

I had same question , tried many times but couldnt change smart cover picture . also i am unable to find smart lock ? having problem connecting bluetooth to my win 10 vaio, it is connected but i cant send data from phone to pc ! it fails . but i can receive from pc to phone.

Same problem for me with Lollipop on me MT7-LT10
I have upgrade my phone (in local) with the official B324 and i can't change the smartcover background, even when i try to change it by the theme menu, its always the picture with a bridge.
@ sabkt : the smart lock is for me in the "locksreen" menu in "other" section

One more here how we can change this ????

Same. I am done with Huawei. First they take years to update, we'll probably never even see Android 6. Their build quality equals total ****. I have had a replaced display by service center 2 TIMES NOW for screen bleed of whites and other lighter colors (in the middle of the screen, random places, etc. And then they manage to screw up one of the things they got right. The old clock and music player were amazing.

Same problem ... no solution???

Same problem here, and the impossibility to change the background it's very annoying

Whilst I wish I could change the picture, I don't miss music from the lock screen. I use PlayerPro and the built-in Music would override it on the lock screen plus it was forever randomly starting (Presumably I was catching the lock screen accidentally).

I having the Same problem too. After the update, I only can see miss call and message notification. I not able to see other than that to notification. Does anyone know how to configure this?

Same problems with me.
Is there some third party app which can to change default bridge picture theme on lolipop?

Also annoyed by this new lock. Want to at least be able to change wallpaper there.

This seems to be a general problem for Huawei/Honor phones.
I can not adjust anything on my Huawei G8 smart cover screen either. It's not the background picture that annoyes me, but that no notifications are display (except that the phone is ringing). Luckily I can switch off the smart cover screen. This way I can see the notification bar at least. Since I have enabled to show the notifications with a swipe over the fingerprint sensor I can view the top most notifications w/o opening the cover.

Hi all,
Try the EMUI Theme Editor app on google play - i havent used it myself for the SmartCover, but it has got an option to change Smart Cover background. Has alot of other useful tools to change EMUI.

[Dev] What Apps would you like to run on the Cover Screen?

Hi Guys! If you could, what Apps would you like to run on your cover screen, given that it's really small or what type of information you wish you could access from the cover screen?
I am a developer, so maybe, just maybe I will be your genie to your wishlist of cover screen apps.
Go ahead, be as creative as you could be! I look forward to hear ideas other than using the Cover Screen as a Notification LED please.

there is no native android support outside screen... so you can't to do anything...
if you are wizard - make please for start AOD on cover screen

I obviously can do some magic.
That's why here to collect ideas which the actual users may would like to see, I won't be super keen on AOD implementation as that would eat up battery, but sure, could be an option. I have my own list of to-dos for the first version of the Super App, just want to see what users come up with.

something can toggle wifi Bluetooth sound flashlight.....

I used aod on all my samsungs. and even on large screens it didn't add much to the battery drain. But how many forums I read, most users are at a loss why the small Samsung display, which is logical for aod, was not used in this model.
about adding functional - enabling bixby routines would be logical without opening the phone.

Well, if Samsung natively implements sure, not much batter drain, but as a third-party developer there are limited access to the APIs (at least not without root.) But yeah, I will see what I can do about it. Bixiby routines, interesting.

I second the toggles for bluetooth/sound/flashlight. Also would like the notification ring as well.. like the ring we see when we charge it.

super. I hope you will finish this soon

Thanks forbyour work is it possible to choose thé number of lines of notification liké the Google assistant message (3 lines) and an vertical scrolling and longer time before extinction for notifications ?
Please

I have a couple days with the flip and for my confort don't spend to much effort to open and for the sake of won't scratch more often when I put on every surface close position, I semi-close pacman like position and put like a stand so the metal frame only touch the surface not the glass and that way when I have to open only use one hand to fully open.
But in that position all the notifications appear on the main screen, so no way to see what notification have, it's there a way to show the notifications on the second mini screen in open position?

I agree, just a simple AOD digital clock would be sweet

Themes / Apps / Mods [APP] Arc Lighting - Notification Light for Galaxy S22 ultra

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

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?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
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
