Turn off one finger zoom

Just installed Synergy JB and have noticed that there is one finger zoom in here where you basically slide up and down on the edge of the screen and it zooms in and out. I see people with the note II have this also so it seems it may be a Touchwiz JB feature but I haven't seen a way to turn it off. It's nice but would love to find a way to toggle it. I already checked display, accessibility, and motion controls with no luck and it zooms in any app that can zoom.
If I remember correctly E actually put the GNOTE 2 camera in that ROM so what you are seeing is that actually camera... As far as I know the only way to change that would be to flash a different camera.... HOWEVER.. I do have the NOTE 2 camera on mine also and can pinch to zoom or use the volume keys so there may be different versions of that also... But anyways flash a different camera and that should do the trick

Well its not just the camera it's in the browser, wikipedia app, and others
I apologize.. I swear the post said in the camera app.... I know he pulled a few .APK's from the Note 2... All I can suggest is check the settings for the individual apps... You could also try and download a different browser and try that... That would help narrow it down if it is something "Overseeing" the ROM or something specific to certain .APK's....
anyone find a fix for this...it's happening in my browser now and it's killing me?

What Scroll Bars?

With all due respect, you may want to look at your screen and take note of the fact there are no scroll bars.
I understand that we are creatures of habit, and as I have been using the GUI, with Scroll Bars since the first Mac (1984) I too tend to use the edge of the screen to scroll, but the truth is, it is a Phone, not a Mac, not a PC. It has no scroll bars. Scroll slightly to the left (or to the right-so to not disenfranchise left handed phone users) or 1/4 of the way across, or 1/3rd, or 1/2 or 3/4 quarters, etc. etc. etc.
Anywhere you'd like. It's a Phone, it's a touch screen. No mouse, no ability to tap in the scroll bar and have the screen advance. No way to position your mouse over the up or down arrow, and have the screen scroll smoothly without any other movement than you holding down the mouse button.
It's a Phone. Get it?
Anyway, what is really infuriating is that Samsung put this feature on the phone, didn't tell anyone, until people started complaining about it and reporting it as a bug, and then rather than either tell people about it, or add the ability through a Setting to disable it, in a new release of the software, the morons simply took it away.
So let me ask you, if your phone came configured with the setting disabled by default, but gave you the option to enable it, try it, see if you liked it, then said, nah, and turned it off, would that have been best for you and guys like me who depend on it all day every day to be able to use my Phone with one hand?
I think the answer is obvious.
Samsung, you are laughable, amateur software developers.
Thankfully we have XDA.
Now I just need one of you on here to figure out where in the heck it is hidden so you can make me a build that includes it with whatever else is in the latest releases.
You see, Android is almost entirely "Hard Coded" so it is not something the average user can just go "teeak" , like following the step by step instructions of someone to simply "Hack" the Windows Registry to make it the way we like it.
All the more reason Samsung is so pitiful.

Screen Burn Issue [Potential Fix] [Moto G4 Plus]

Over the couple of months, many Moto G4 Plus owners have been complaining about the screen burn issue.
Well there wasn't a fix for this through software except Blue Light Filter (which didn't work for me), and while trying for the fix, I feel I have found one.
Prerequisites:
1. Android Nougat (7.0) (I am running on the stock NPJ25.93-14 i.e the 1st December 2016 Security Patch)
2. System UI Tuner enabled.
No Root Needed.
My device is the Indian variant XT1643 i.e 2GB RAM variant.
For those who are on Android Marshmallow CM based Custom ROM, you can try using the live display and setting the value nearby 3000~3500K (Although I am not sure if this would work since I haven't tried it yet).
Its the Night Mode!
1. Go download the "Night Mode Enabler" app from the Play Store --> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.michaelevans.nightmodeenabler&hl=en
2. Open it and click on "Enable Night Mode".
3. It will take you to System UI Tuner where you can toggle night mode on/off.
4. Go to the quick settings edit option, and you will see a new tile - "Night Mode".
Toggle on the night mode and see the effect after some time (it started to show effect as soon as I enabled it and fixed the issue within 20 minutes for me).
[Q]. What will happen if I toggle off night mode?
[A]. The Screen burn will occur once again.
You need to have the Night Mode to be always on in order to get rid of that Screen Burn issue.
I know that many might not like the color temperature of Night Mode, so if you have a CM based ROM, you can edit the temperature with "Live Display" option.
Well, try it out and lets see if it works or not!

First of all, thank you for sharing this.
But your "fix" is just a workaround and not a proper fix for our broken displays.
The only real fix is to replace the display.

Umm, I guess you are right. I have changed the title now.
Even screen replacement is not a permanent solution. I have replaced display and within 3 weeks issue reoccurred
It fixed the issue
The night mode enabler has fixed the issue for now. But the screen is of some weird color(especially white background).
Anyways, Its good to see my phone screen without the screen burn issue after such a long time.
Thanks
RGB calibration is the best fix for screen burn in !
unfortunately if u r on stock rom ,Then you have to root ur device .

add an app to video enhancer feature manually on Samsung Galaxy Devices

are there any ways or hacks to add an application to video enhancer feature manually on Samsung Galaxy S8+?
my phone's display has cracked so there are some dark lines all over my screen all the time. but when I play a video on my phone with the video enhancer mode enabled, the dark lines fade away and the brightness becomes full. I can see the whole screen this way. if there is any way I can keep this feature turned on all the time or on all the apps I use, I can see the screen properly. it would be really helpful if anyone can help me with it and I would be grateful and appreciate it. thanks in advance... :angel:
what if I root it ?? will I be able to do it then ??
I want this too. But I really don't want to root it.
Just a man

Android 10 [Q] Features Report/Feedback

So I know there are other android 10 threads out there but I felt like y'all should get a list of whats new in front of your eyes instead of looking around:
**Improved night camera quality - Yes I have felt and improvement it is slight however, but it did get somewhat better.
**Google's new navigation gestures (I felt like I should write this because last updates, Sony phones did not get the nav gestures) however the new gestures seem just a tiny bit laggy -rarely though- and when in landscape mode, the slide down bar drops not in a symmetric way but rather drops right sided which makes things look out of place
**New CinemaPro app features - the app now has the levels of both phone microphones like on the v50 and also has aspect ratio check lines (if you want to shoot a video on cinema pro it only shoots 21/9 but you can have check lines to see whats being viewed in any other aspect ratio you choose and you also have a meter inside the camera to show you if youre in the frame or not)
**Dark mode - works on most apps, but I can't seem to activate it on my phone app, any suggestions?
**UI click sounds changed - yup! I love the new ones they sound more like Android rather than Sony and I do love Android!
**FINGERPRINT!!!! - Yes!! finally fingerprint scanner is way more responsive now!! before it was sooo strict about the cleanness and the angle, I registered 3 fingers and it only could recognize one of them because of the angle it provides, but now every finger on any angle with less cleanness is verry responsive! (could still be worked on, but im so happy with it at this moment)
**Sadly no more face unlock, even though I never used it but it worked surprisingly fast when I had the option available, but now it doesnt exist, good thing they improved the fingerprint scanner XD
**Slightly improved battery life - I only noticed it when I tested it, but if youre not a detailed tester you wont be able to recognize throughout the day, maybe if youre a slight user, yes you will notice the phone lasting 2/3 hours longer (overall usage and not screen on time) because I can tell they worked greatly on improving the idle drain.
**Speaker loudness - I think the phone got louder? I am not sure but defiantly notice something that didnt exist, not necessarily higher quality but I do notice something increasing in volume I cant tell if its volume or distortion lol but when I go to max volume there is something that makes you think, a little lower than max sounded like max on previous android but I cant tell if max here is actually louder or just more noisy especially with dolby atmos
**Some people reported signal drops? or bad signal? I havent noticed a difference here so thats good news
**Performance - the phone was fast enough to almost be the king of speed and smoothness so yah even if its better on android 10 I cant even feel the difference but it is VERY smooth even on a new android which means its pretty sick!
**Recent apps button (in old school 3 button nav bar) doesnt seem to do anything if you have custom launcher, but works on default sony launcher.
UPDATE!!
**one handed mode, which I use alot when im in bed, cant seem to be activated in the new navigation gestures, because you have to double tap home button but u dont have it in new gestures, so heres what i did:
Enabled side sense, i know it doesn't work properly, but now you have an option of controlling how to access it, You can actually enable the inside the screen tap rather than from the side (if you have a case on, this will really help you) , adjust sensitivity, position, transparency of the slide activators, and change the gestures of how it works, now i changed the double tap side sense from opening the side sense menu, to activate one handed mode, and now side sense works smoothly with gestures and i can activate one handed mode in new android nav gestures, youre welcome
Thx u for this thread
UI seems a lot smoother. I'm liking the android 10 gestures which adds to the "smoothness".
Can't really say about photo quality, haven't been using the camera much. I can definitely notice a better battery life compared to before.
Basically no issues just yet! Aside from me getting used to the new gestures (+ side sense)
Im using the google dialer app in play store. It has a way better ui, better icons and dark mode compatible. Set it as default and it's all good. I don't understand why sony have decided to use the "stock" google messenger app but not dialer... the dialer seems customized in some way idk
There is a bug that I noticed: when going back home using the gesture, if the app icon is on the dock, the icons a bit laggy and will flash for once. don't really know how to describe it
Someone can make a full review of android 10 and post it on youtube ?

Yah you just reminded me to add that bug, also if you on landscape mode the slide down bar is off place slides from the right rather than the middle of the screen

I will try to do so soon, when I have free time from work
Agree with you.
- about the signal, i notice less signals bar (1-2 signal bars most of the time), but no connection drop (yet)
- wifi Mac address new option, set by default at "random Mac address"
Here's a preview of the swipe up animation bug?

Does anyone else have a weird audio bug where when you pause music or a video the sound spikes up for a second before it pauses. I've only tested it on the native music app and YouTube. I don't use any music streaming service such as Spotify or Pandora. I think I've concluded that this is a software bug since I when I flashed back to the previous firmware and didn't have the same problem. Maybe my device is just strange. Any opinion?

Precisely, IDK if that happens with pixel or one plus devices, but I know that it happens with Xperia 1. When you go back to the app, let's just say it's inside a folder, app shows in the dock then the folder pops back. Then if you open an app let's just say dialer then you switch to camera with recent menu and you go back to home screen it shows dialer app on where the camera icon then you get the camera icon back in the dock. Am I right?

Question camera app --> screen comes dark

I have some wierd issue for a long time ( op9 pro ox 13) afte
when i open the default cam app usaly when there is light(sun) outside after one shot the screen get dark and i cannot see nothing, the light sensor is set to manual, the only way i can restore it to normal its to press to home button and again the cam app
is there any option when i read not to lock the phone ?
how can i disable this thing ??
Do you have the same problem if you set the screen brightness to automatic? If you are rooted and have magisk modules, try disabling all of it and see if this helps.
automatic is making the screen almost all the time darker ( outside)
Ok, I have no idea. I don't have this problem and the fact no one else has responded, chances are this problem is unique to you. Only other suggestion I have is to reach out to OnePlus and see what they say or send it it a service center if you have one in your area.
