navigation bar middle button - can i lock my phone with it? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

opo cm 13.1 , just flashed from 12.1 i think.
i was used (like almost a year and a half) to lock my phone with the middle (circle) navigation bar - just long press on it and move my finger up.
after the 13.1 update i just cant find this feautre, has it gone?

Set the middle button as double tap to turn screen off, and have instant lock.

I was in same exact situation after upgrading to Marshmallow. The thing you used to use is called Navigation Ring Targets. Marshmallow removed this functionality in favor of long press Now on tap which I personally hate (don't ask why). So, after that, on Marshmallow I started using Greenify's "Long-press action on nav-bar" option. Just install Greenify, go to Settings, select that option and follow the steps. You'll be set plus you cal also save some precious battery life . I use Fling Nav bar available on various custom ROMs which beyond perfect if you set it up correctly.

I actually don't know about COS 13.1 but every CM based ROM or for that matter AOSP based ROM I've used, had this option. Just search for "Sound" in Settings, if it is there, you're good to go, if not, then I don't know. Even if it is there, it might not work with Greenify's screen off method.

[CM11][LG G2] How to disable the Knock On feature

I've looked everywhere for an answer to this, but so far to no avail. Is there a way to manually disable this Knock On feature included in the stock software? I'm running CyanogenMod 11 nightlies and it causes my phone to crash 50% of the time and gets annoying after a while. I looked through all the system files on the phone and can't even find a pointer. Be as complicated as you want with your answer. Thanks.
P.S. This is not a new problem with CM11. Did this with 10.2 as well.
On the stock software its easy !! Go to configurations > general > gesture > on/off screen (its the first option) !!
Hope i could help:good:

If your still trying to figure it out i found it after about 3 hours of searching its located in settings under display and lights just uncheck "double tap to wake"
Disable Knock on / Knock Off
Go to settings, device, display and lights, and uncheck double tap to wake. Then settings , personalization, Interface, Status bar, and uncheck double tap to sleep..
Worked for me.. Hope this helps
Thank you!
Is there a way to disable knock on during calls only? My face keeps unlocking my phone and apps are opened or settings changed. It's annoying.
Found a FIX disable Tap 2 Wake/ Knock code
Hi all, I have a LG F220K (LG Optimus GK). :silly:
And I'm running a modified version of LG G2 CM11 (currently on M6) on my mobile.
After flashing CM11 ROM I figured that the option to deactivate the Tap to wake/ Knock code feature is not available in the Settings menu itself.
The Tap wake function is something I hate as it turns on display and press buttons during calls, so somehow I was lost with all the forums having only questions yet no answers...
This is How I sorted it!!! (Sorry, I am not allowed to post images or links as a newbie)
1. Please install Kernel Tweaker from the play market (It's free).
2. Open the Kernel Tweaker, access the main menu of the app by tapping the top left hand corner.
3. Browse through to Kernel (Under Kernel Params) tap open.
4. You will see that it has two options Under Kernel Tweaks "Double Tap 2 wake" and "Sweep 2 Wake", there will be two ticked boxes.
5. Untick both boxes and exit!!!
Now you can tap on screen like no tomorrow but Tap to Wake/ Knock code is no more... :highfive:
A THANK wouldn't hurt!!!

Me as well! I hate Knock-On as it always turns on the screen in my pocket.
I tried Kernel Tweaker but there arent any options under Kernel Tweaks for me to choose from. Im running C-Rom 7.1 which is CM based I believe.
Is there an .apk or sys file I can disable? What kind of file and what is the name of the file/code that is responsible for Knock-On?

[Magisk20+][OOS9,10][CustomROM]Fingerprint Swipe Gestures(Back,Home,Recents,Sleep)

Fingerprint Swipe (left,right,up for Back, Home, Recents/Sleep)
The third party custom fingerprint apps were not working after Pie update, which was so useful since this is a huge phone, so made a custom module inspired by rori's module.
UPDATE
Couldn't update for a long time since I moved to OP7T.
Anyway got some free time in lockdown, so here we go
Fingerprint_swipe v3 Magisk20+ Changelog
Support for Magisk 20+ (Tested on Magisk 20.4)
Uses Latest MMT-Ex from Zackptg5
Works on OOS10 Open Beta
INSTALLATION : Remove other old Modules and flash this in Magisk (Should work on OOS and Custom ROMs)
What it does?
Swipe left for BACK/Close notification
Swipe right for HOME
Swipe up for RECENTS
Swipe up twice for switching to LAST APP

You can't customize on the go. You can unzip the module zip and alter the key layout file to customise the swipe gesture values to the required one if you know the particular key value for that action.
For example, Key value for RECENTS menu = APP_SWITCH
Make sure you don't change the power button values.

I unzipped the file and I found where to configure the values, but there are 8 of them. I know "Up,Down,Left,Right" but what are the other four? Also how do you know which is which. I mean which one represents Up, represents Down, represents Left....
Please forgive me if this is obvious I'm new to this process.
Works flawlessly on ob21 | op5t
Many thanks OP for this ! Works flawlessly.
Great mod and I have you rep on the other thread!
So when I'm on the home screen and finger down it shows quick settings, but when I finger up to minimize quick settings it automatically shows recents. I know that that's how you designed it but would it be possible to make it so that it closes the quick settings back first and back to home screen? Then I can finger up again to show recents. I hope my explanation isn't confusing.
Thanks

As you can see in the op post, when you want to close the quick settings use swipe left (Back) or swipe right (Home). Else I can only make a separate module with swipe up making notification close and recents action removed.
And coming to the complex action you have request where a same gesture works differently based on the current situation, its not possible in the file I modified. I need to look into other files to understand how things work.

In the order
up
Left
Right
Down
Other values may represent something else, maybe like long pressing in camera clicks pics, long press from locked device open payment service. But am not sure yet.

bypass fingerprint lock?

So I was messing around with some settings today and using the double tap power button to launch camera from either ambient display or the lock screen. Well that's all fine and dandy and it works but I also let's anyone unlock your phone cause once in camera app you can hit the home button or back button and it'll allow access to the phone in its entirety. Kinda a fail set up. Hopefully fixed. Truly IDC caus no one uses my phone that I don't trust and I NEVER leave it anywhere that I feel wouldn't be safe. Let alone on table at Starbucks or a bar like I see sooo many people do.
All input is welcome on this subject
i couldn't get mine to unlock, but then again I am using Navigation Gestures not the Nav Bar
Nevermind I'm a retard, but as I stated I was messing around with settings today. I set the "on body" to keep device unlocked. Lol live and learn right?

Honestly I really really wanted to use the gestures, make things feel new and all coming from my old phone but truly I can't they are too show. I always use the double tap recent to almost instantly go back to last open app and switching apps is world's faster this way.

I've never heard such kind of gestures. Which phone/magisk module was that ? Google pixel ?
I also use gestures but once my thumb is on the top half of the phone it's a long way to reach the bottom of the screen [emoji2356]
So I couple it with pie controls

I use pie controls as well. All phones with Oreo and above have the option to double tap the recents button and it will instantly switch back to the last app open. Say I'm in Facebook and leave to Samsung browser. If I double tap quickly on the recent apps button. I can switch back and forth very quickly between the 2 apps.

My phone's stock firmware broke my power button

Hello everyone. I would like to know if anyone experienced this, and if anyone has a solution (or at least an idea why).
The power button of my Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) (SM-A750G) phone does not work at unlocking the screen (if it works in the rest of the functions such as opening the shutdown menu, entering recovery, etc.) when I am using stock firmware, but it works perfectly when using a GSI or any other custom OS.
Do you have any idea what could happen? It should be noted that this happened to me when my phone had the stock firmware and I had never modified my equipment at all... It just happened suddenly and for that reason I switched to a GSI. But now I would like to use the stock firmware, but I will not be able to do it with this "bug".
Thanks 4 the help
You mean unlocking or just turning the screen on an unlocked phone?
The app DoubleTap does away with using any buttons to turn the screen on/off. Simply 2x tap it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/...apk&pcampaignid=APPU_1_oD7zX7-SMMvesAWsh5_ADA

That's strange. Have you tried remapping the button? Are there options to do so in settings?
Possibly another 3rd party apk remapped without you being aware of it?
I been using this app for over a year. To spite the ad warnings, it has none. Uses almost zero battery, never connects with the internet and is rock solid stable. Saves button life just keep the screen pointed away from your flesh when in your pocket to avoid accidentally taps.
Note: I never gave it administrator privileges as I never use a lock screen. So not sure about its behavior in that mode of operation.

I tried the app a few moments ago and it seems to work fine, the flesh thing is apparently configurable (assign the volume key, which is the most similar).
Regarding the mapping or 3rd party apks using the button, I see it almost impossible, not only because I don't use any app of this type (that reassigns keys) but in completely clean installations of stock firmware this happens to me (and I don't have any option key remapping that I know of).
It's very weird, at least for me. Because not only does it "break" to unlock, but it is only with stock firmware and even if I change the kernel (I tried using the quantum kernel) the key does not work when turning on the screen. But with the GSI it works without problems.
I even googled questions related to Always in display, power or something similar and nothing, there seems to be no conflicts.

Make sure there's no remapping options for it in settings. If so it may be buried or under accessibility options... I've seen hidden Sammy drop down menus with no indication they are there until you double tap the top label. Swell.
Or simply bypass and double tap it!

hehe, if it is true that there are really hidden things XD
Anyway, I am testing this app and if I see that it works I will be encouraged to install the stock firmware and by the way I will try to dig deep into the configuration in search of an option that I have overlooked

Personally, the one that I liked the most (and the one that works best) is the Google official (Android 10): https://developer.android.com/topic/generic-system-image/releases But one problem is that it is very outdated.
Anyway, here is a list of some GSIs that you can check and test which one works on your device: https://github.com/phhusson/treble_experimentations/wiki/Generic-System-Image-(GSI)-list

Thanks! I'll try that
EXACTLY same problem here. I will not repet your words, I'll just say you described EXACTLY what is happening with my phone, a Galaxy A7 2018 (128GB RAM, Brazilian model - A750G/DS).
I can confirm that:
1 - Problem of screen never turning on after being turned off for the first time happens at all stock ROMs. Tried at android 10, downgraded to 9, couldn't downgrade to 8 because odin would not write the image, but the problem persisted on ALL stock ROMs up untill now.
2 - Problem DOES NOT happen at the TWRP recovery. Flashed TWRP just now, so I can flash a GSI, and I can turn the screen on or off as many times as I wish at TWRP screen, without any problem.
These informations corroborate, almost without a shadow of doubt, the idea that this is actually a software problem, not a hardware one. I'm gonna flash the google 10 GSI now, with quantum kernel V3 (seems to be a requirement, I would like to make as litle changes as possible) and post the results.

Try this. You need flash a "GSI Boot Fix" to use a GSI on A750.

Question How to swap buttons, show network speed etc

Hi everyone,
I just bought the Pixel 7 Pro and rooted it. I am coming from a Oneplus 7 Pro and there are few thing I would like to change to make my phone closer to what I am used to, maybe using root or a module?
Swap back and recent buttons, I use the back button a lot more and I often use my phone with one hand which makes it hard to reach, is there a way to swap those buttons? (fixed with AOSPMods)
Show network speed in status bar, this is a great way for me to know when I am having internet issues (fixed with AOSPMods)
Change audio output device – on the oneplus I can stay connected to my bluetooth speaker but output sound from the phone's speaker just by using the menu that shows when I press the volume button, is there a way to do that here?
Is there a way to remove the widget at the top of the home page? I do not care for it
Is there a way to move the google search bar to the top of the home page screen?
Change the quick setting from internet to just wifi (I often toggle wifi on and off, having it merged with data is a pain)
Double tap to turn off on home screen (AOSPMods allowed me to have it on lock screen but not home)
Let me know if there are hidden settings or other tricks that I am missing to achieve these
Thank you!
1. You can't 2. You can't, 3. I don't know. 4 No. 5. No.
I hear you on the navigation buttons. My Samsung Galaxy S21U let me swap the back and menu buttons but it appears the Pixel does not (at least not without rooting or with a custom rom).
This drove my crazy at first, but I ended up just switching to gesture navigation and it's actually really grown on me.
As for your bottom two questions, I personally prefer Nova Launcher and I know that both are possible with Nova. I'll let others advise whether it's possible with the native Google launcher.
Root + AOSPMods (XDA thread) can enable point #2 and probably others.

I was wondering the same thing about the repositioning of the gesture buttons. Samsung allowed you to do that.

Do I need Xposed? I remember on my OP7Pro that Xposed did not pass safetynet, did that change?
It worked, with AOSPMods I was able to swap the buttons and show network speed!
Still looking for the rest and:
Change the quick setting from internet to just wifi (I often toggle wifi on and off, having it merged with data is a pain)
Double tap to turn off on home screen

LSPosed is required. Everything is system-less and I'm able to pass safetynet with the mods installed.
