Hi everyone
DISCLAIMER :

TL;DR
If your hotspot doesn't work and you don't know why, try this, it's not magical, but it may work

Here's the problem : my provider allow me to use hotspot, but my phone don't.
I managed to resolve this thanks to this thread.
But I thought a little flashable zip could help some others people
So i made one, originally for my Oukitel K6000 Pro, but i thinks it may apply for most of android 6+ phones (maybe 5+ ... anyone can confirm ?)
What this script does :
- Edit or add net.tethering.noprovisioning=true in build.prop
- Enable init.d script (without busybox)
- Do `settings put global tether_dun_required 0` on each start with init.d script
- Add ',dun' to your enabled APNs
Required :
- Your phone
- Your head
- A backup of your phone (just in case)
- An USB cable
- A recovery (tested only on TWRP but CWM should work no problem)
Installation :
- Push zip to phone
- Reboot phone to recovery
- Flash tetherByPass.zip
- Reboot
- Try & enjoy
You shouldn't need to clean cache/dalvik, or mount system (or data) before flashing.
Everything is done in script, but feel free to do it if you want =)
Known bug :
- Doesn't work on phones which doesn't show tethering menu (like Sprint galaxy note 4) yet ...
Corrected in v0.92 :
- settings put cmd in init.d script doesn't work on some devices
Corrected in v0.91 :
- telephony.db causing FC of com.android.phone at restart.
If you have this problem, via adb shell do "rm /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db"
You don't even need to restart your phone, it should rebuild the database itself.
I know why it does this, i'm actually trying to correct this
Changelog :
v0.92:
- Fixed init.d script : some devices didn't keep settings information
- Added uninstaller
- Deleted GDrive download link
- Added files to thread
v0.91:
- fixed com.android.phone FC after reboot
v0.9:
- choose good sqlite3-static by arch
- add ',dun' to APNs via sqlite3 to telephony.db
v0.8:
- updated universal mount method using fstab
- build.prop is now correctly edited
- /tmp is now correctly cleaned (in case of multi zip flashing)
v0.5:
- Initial release

Well, it pretty must apply everything that has been done in this thread.
Originally for Nexus 6, those things has been applied for a lot of different phone. Some worked, some don't.
I put every manipulation I found in this little script.
There is no big modification (only init.d enabler, which is already enable on almost every phone which has a custom recovery). So I didn't make an uninstaller, Should I ?

Thank you for the link.
I tried it on my SM-N910P (Sprint galaxy note 4) with MM 6.0.1 and systemless root supersu 2.78 but it didn't work.
I flashed it from twrp recovery.

Hmm, ok let's check some stuff before look deeper :
- In your build.prop you should find "net.tethering.noprovisioning", probably at the end - confirm ?
- It should be followed by "1" or "true" - confirm ?
- Then via ADB, do "settings get global tether_dun_required", it should give you a "0" (zero) - confirm ?
If those three things are ok, we didn't find a solution for you phone yet.
Maybe try to add ",dun" in your APN (do you know how to ?) but my script should allow your phone to bypass this.
EDIT : If you don't know, you can follow this : http://techbeasts.com/how-to-enable-wifi-tethering-on-sprint-galaxy-note-4-note-edge/
Tell me if it works. I'm looking for inject ",dun" rule in APN through my script

1) net.tethering.noprovisioning in build.prop (not available)
2) Using adb shell settings get global tether_dun_required gives me "0"
3)Adding ,dun in APN doesn't work for me because I am outside USA and I use XAS csc instead of SPR and there is no data in my APN settings.
update: I added (net.tethering.noprovisioning=1 or true) manually to buid.prop
but didn't work.
Update to v0.8:
- updated universal mount method using fstab
- build.prop is now correctly edited
- /tmp is now correctly cleaned (in case of multi zip flashing)

You could try again but I don't think it will change anything, I'm looking for a solution about your APN.
I didn't even knew there were different kind of APN :/
Are you sure this is just "Secure APN" where you can't edit them ?
EDIT : updates
v0.9:
- choose good sqlite3-static by arch
- add ',dun' to APNs via sqlite3 to telephony.db
v0.91:
- fixed com.android.phone FC after reboot
EDIT : @anees02 : You should re-try the last version. Even for single CSC roms there is APN settings. But you just can't see nor edit them.

Does it require any cutom kernel or with stock enforcing kernel it works?

I tried this before and tried it again.
The only thing that works for me is the mods which some developers do in services.jar and makes wifi Hotspot works.
When I used Galaxy Tools GT3.1.5 by idone the WiFi Hotspot seems to work but I couldn't see tethering and Hotspot in settings.
I have to tap on hotspot settings in GT snd the hotspot launches.
But under settings there's no thing tells hotspot.

So the menu doesn't exist in your phone ... I did some research and ... it's kinda weird :|
My mod aim to delete provider provisioning, but I don't know how to re-enable your menu and I thinks that only an app (or service) can use your wifi :/
Sooooo my mod is useless for you ... I will to enhance my mod so phone like yours can share their connection. But not for now.

If you want any help or any files from my device I am ready just pm me.

I already make workaround solution to get WifiHotspot, instead of the option in the settings I used nova launcher activities to make a shortcut in my home page and the WiFi Hotspot started successfully but when I connect from any device it stucks on (obtaining IP address).
Is there any fix for this?

Don't know yet, But we can find out why
I'm working on this mod too, so update will not be fast as I want.

Updated to v0.92, init.d update & uninstaller added
does this work with nexus 5x? I saw mention of it in a 5x topic, but not sure if you actually tested/used it on a nexus 5x or were just kind of advertising about your work

Well It should work. But for some people the problem still remains. It seems that android 7.* ignore net.tethering.noprovisioning=true in build prop.
As there is an uninstaller, you cans till try and tell me if it works.
And, as allways, do a backup in case somethings goes wrong
Will this mod work on the note 4 910t2 4.4.4 kk fw?

It should work, try it anyway
If it doesn't work, just use uninstaller.zip to clean all the modifications the mod made.
And, as always, do a backup before install in case something goes wrong
Thank you very much.!!!!!
Working good on ulephone power 3 7.1.1 V35
see you

haven't tried it yet but it looks really impressive. Still some thinks I would change and will put back into this rom, because I think it is a little bit TOO slim, but this is everybody's own decision.
looks really nice and will be tested on the weekend.
looks promising.
a couple of questions; you've removed conversations.apk and messaging.apk. what sms app does your rom use?
i can see that you have removed talk.apk. isn't it needed to be on the phone to access the market?
Good job. Thanks for that tutorial on knocking off some cmg. Can you by any chance tell us how to make those boot only files that other mods put up. It really helps to downgrade that way. I will try this once I am back home from work.
cheers
Very clean Rom, at the moment all work for me, market work perfectly, i will test sms and this evening...

Maybe if you dont do a factory reset before installing the rom (rom does a reset before anyways). So if Talk is setup in the first place its required (I'm guessing), but so far without it works fine. Added screenshot above of market with paypal on screen.
Also tiggggr is right, the messaging apps where replaced with a stock MMS app.

If your talking about things like the Android 2.2.1 - 3.4.2-107 TMobile US modified bootloader. No idea, this flashing method I dicuss does not use/make a modified bootloader. Its just removing the Froyo bootloader and system partitions from the sbf.

Ok no problem, only modify the media.stagefright.enable-player=true to false or use this buil.prop
One thanks for me plz

Was uploading the new version already but thanks.
Yup Stagefright being enabled for the youtube player was causing the issue. Flash the new version and should be all set.
coming from pays 3.3
I found pays 3.3 to be laggy when trying to close apps and the network connection quite slow and jumping between 3G and H a lot. I think the network issue is causing the lag.
coming from pays 3.3 on 3.4.2_145-003. I thought I'd wipe and factory reset before installing Lawnchair.zip
This left me with a clean ROM but with no home app and having wiped in clockwork recovery meant no debug for an ADB push. I didn't check for ADB connection but I found that voice commands would run and that allowed the selection of clockwork, so no need to reflash sbf.
Just a note if anyone sees this.
ROM has booted now and looks good, people shouldn't complain about what's missing, nothing's missing if you have ever used Titanium or Appmonster.

Ya the reason for re-flashing the sbf is because other rom's (and mine) do remove apps from the system folder. Something which a factory reset wont fix.
However, because my rom does include all stock system apps; yes this should work but like you said if your missing a Launcher in your system folder it will make it complicated.
Otherwise, glad to here its up and running.
thank you very much for the work. the downgrade method you just included are new to me. As long as i´m working on DefyFroyoSense Beta01 and cant fix the camera flash problem, i think your way to flash Froyo and keep downgradability will fix this issue. BTW you optimized rom is great for those who wanna have a personalized system running. Thanks again and keep it coming.

Ugh had it turned off, go for it now heh.
I really liked the rom, although what i did experience was a some random lagging occurring.. after switching on the screen the device seemed to hang completely then just as i was about to pull the battery it began working again. i hadnt installed any apps and i had followed all steps exactly.
I had to reflash an alternative rom in the end because of the freezing...
I am looking forward to trying new builds - cant think of any features needed really, it would just be nice to know if others had similar issue to me and if there was a fix for it.

PDroid allows blocking access for any installed application to the following data separately:
Device ID (IMEI/MEID/ESN)
Subscriber ID (IMSI)
SIM serial (ICCID)
Phone and mailbox number
Incoming call number
Outgoing call number
GPS location
Network location
List of accounts (including your google e-mail address)
Account auth tokens
Contacts
Call logs
Calendar
SMS
MMS
Browser bookmarks and history
System logs
SIM info (operator, country)
Network info (operator, country)
For device ID, phone and mailbox number, SIM serial, subscriber ID and device location it also allows supplying custom or random values.
Why you would want to use it:
Applicaitons do NOT crash when access to private data is blocked (unlike with Permissions Denied or CM)
Fine-grained tuning of access to private data
No background service needed
Very small memory footprint (~700KB)
No impact on battery life
No impact on performance (5ms overhead on access to private data; yes, that's 0.005s)
100% reliable unlike ROOT applications (LBE), which need to start their background service on boot (see android underground to learn why this is an issue)
No ROOT required for the app to run
No Android permissions required for the app to run
Open-source
Download:
Automatic PDroid Patcher for Windows (XP/Vista/7):
JDK 6 or newer is required (get it here http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-6u25-download-346242.html)
Install JDK 6 into the default directory (don't change anything when installing)
.NET Framework 2.0 or newer required (ships with Windows since XP SP2)
Currently only supports Gingerbread (Android 2.3)
Will only work with deodexed ROMs (take a look into your ROM's system/framework directory; if there are any *.odex files, your ROM is NOT deodexed)
You will need to re-create your settings backup after updating from version 1.27 (it is not compatible with the newer version)
Download PDroid Patcher v1.32 Beta 0.321 for Windows
Patch Installation Requirements:
ROOTED device
For HTC devices: S-OFF ([TOOL] One click ENG S-OFF for HTC Desire HD)
ClockworkMod Recovery 3.0.2.6 or newer
If you "integrated sys Dalvik into ROM" with Titanium Backup, you will have to undo it
Installation Instructions:
BACKUP YOUR ROM (HOWTO)
Make a PDroid Patch for your ROM with the PDroid Patcher and put the patch on your SD card
Boot your device into your custom (CWM) recovery (Desire HD: vol down + power)
If you flashed the patch before but PDroid said it still was not installed, then select "mount /system"
Select "install zip from sdcard"
Select "choose zip from sdcard"
Select the PDroid patch you have put on your SD card
After flashing is finished, reboot the device
Install the PDroid app from the Android Market
Rate the app at the Android market (let me know, if you have any issues beforehand)

What about controlling the internet access?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Controlling access to the network/internet requires either patching the kernel or using ROOT access within the PDroid app. I try avoiding the former due to portability and the latter due to user privacy/security reasons. I am looking into adding internet access control in a way, which would be the most acceptable/convenient for the user. However, this feature currently isn't on the top of my to-do list.
How do I make a patch manually myself?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For experienced developers the following basic steps for creating a PDroid patch should be enough to get you started:
Make a clean AOSP build (2.3.4, assuming that your ROM is based on 2.3.x)
Make another build with PDroid sources added
Decompile the framework.jar, services.jar and core.jar files inside the system/framework directory (of both above builds) using apktool
Diff the output so that you know, which parts were changed by PDroid
Decompile the above three files from your ROM, you want to patch
Add the missing code to your ROM files based on the above diff
Recompile your patched ROM files using apktool
Do you plan on adding Froyo/ICS support?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes. But I have not ported PDroid to Froyo or ICS yet. No ETAs yet. You'll need some patience there.

Can I backup the privacy settings with TitaniumBackup?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, however you will need to backup your settings to internal memory (PDroid preferences) before making a backup with TitaniumBackup. After restoring with TitaniumBackup, you will need to restore the previously backed up settings. Alternatively you can backup privacy settings to the SD card.

Yes.
I have applied the correct patch but my device does not boot, how do I find out what the error is?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Restore your backup
Get the Android SDK
Install it (you don't need the eclipse part)
Enable USB-debugging on your device
Connect it to your PC
Start ddms, which is located in the android-sdk-[platform]\tools directory
Apply PDroid patch
Reboot the device
When your device appears in the ddms window, click on it to see the system log
Filter the log by "error"
Watch the system log for errors and post them here
I have flashed a patch but I am having very weird issues I didn't have before (like you cannot unlock the SIM card or there are weird graphics etc.)?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Have you flashed other mods to your ROM? If so, PDroid is most likely conflicting with them. You will need to create a patch for your customized ROM.
Also make sure that you are using a patch appropriate for your ROM (the CyanogenMod patches for stable 7.1 will mostly not work on nightlies unless the link says so).
How do I make a patch for my device after I have flashed some other mods?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If your other mods DO NOT replace any of the three files: framework.jar, services.jar or core.jar in /system/framework, you can just create a patch normally based on your original ROM file.
Otherwise you will need to extract those three files from your device (use a root file manager or adb pull), put them into your ROM zip (also in /system/framework) and then create a PDroid patch based on the ROM zip.
Reserved, just in case
Yes. This is awesome

You're right. It won't work with Sense 3.5 ROMs. I've added to the description that it currently only works with Sense 3.0. I might port it to Sense 3.5 soon.

With this tool, you can completely backup your device without root or unlocked bootloader.
I have tested it so far only with my Galaxy Nexus, but it should also work with other devices running Android 4.0+.
So you can unlock your bootloader without losing your data.
With version 1.1, not all parts of the program will be downloaded, only the necessary.
The most tools in the "Tools" section are for the Galaxy Nexus, but more devices will follow soon.
Now the final release of v2 is out!
The UI is complete, it's much easier to use.

Well...tried this on my GF's Droid Razr Maxx but all it did was display the adb.exe help text and then re-start. Does this util require an ADB connection? Or maybe anything else? I'm thinking some more info would be helpful...

A simple gift for this wonderful promising tool...
Since this uses ADB, if adb.exe is not found, it would not give any error/information to the user, of what is happening. It will just exit to the menu. Thus, I have added some ADB detection in the script here. http://pastebin.com/mFXJ3w36
PS: If @Gigadroid would put this up on github, more expansion and contribution is expected.

UI for your tool
Where can I contribute a simple Windows WinForms based UI for your tool? I am envisioning a save folder for backups, a file selection for restore. Backup name with date and time in file name if so desired, custom file name, ADB existense check, all garnished with explanative messages and an interminent progress bar so as to not block the UI while performing backup or restore.
BTW I just tried it on my SGS2 a day I after I rooted it for backups and it work fine
Now if I could only see how in ADB a package list can be retrieved with friendly names (Don't tell me... let me learn alone)

Option 3 is for backup device and app data.
That means when you restore you have only the system apps on your device.
The data of your apps is still present.
If you've done a mission in Dead trigger and install the app again, you're where you left off.
Option 4 is for backup your apps without data.
When you restore you aren't where you left off.
Option 5 is for backup music, pics, etc. hat are saved on your device
I would say you should choose 3 and 4, but with 1 you can do nothing wrong

UnBloatMi - Xiaomi MIUI Bloatware Remover
I have been searching for a script to remove Bloatware from my Xiaomi Mi5s, and found a couple of different ones that do part of the job.
None were exactly what I was looking for, so I wrote a script of my own.
Although I tested the script on my MI5s only, it should be very usable for any Xiaomi device running MIUI 7 or 8.
In UnBloatMi I have combined multiple lists of MIUI 7 and 8 apps that should be safe to remove.
It also contains a couple that are less safe to remove, but the script will ask for confirmation before removing those.
Which is a big difference from other scripts; you get to choose what to remove and what to restore!
Backup location:
If you edit the script, you can change the backup location to use (by default "/sdcard/UnBloatMi")
You can of course also add more apps to remove to the list in the script. (instructions are in the comments)
It's not needed to remove files from the list, as it will not process files that are not on your device, and you can choose not to remove any app.
To Customize the Script:
Unzip the zip and edit the file under: META-INF\com\google\android\update-binary
This script is written in shell language (sh), so editing is somewhat different from "normal" EDIFY scripts that use the "updater-script" file.
I used part of the excellent template by osm0sis to create UnBloatMi
Install Custom Apps/Files:
You can also have the script install Custom files to /system folder. (So you can add another HomeLauncher, for example)
To have the script install Custom files, just add them to the Zip in "/system/app/" folder:
/system/app/YourCustomApp1/YourCustomApp1.apk
/system/app/YourCustomApp2/YourCustomApp2.apk
The script will automatically install them for you.
To use the Script:
You need to have TWRP Recovery installed.
BACKUP YOUR DEVICE BEFORE RUNNING THIS SCRIPT!!! (I recommend using TWRP Backup)
(even though the script allows you to restore your changes, something can always go wrong - press wrong button for example)
- Move the ZIP file to your SDCard, and install using TWRP Recovery
Basically, you can just follow the instructions on the screen, by pressing Volume buttons.
- The first run, you'll be asked what apps to remove. Backups are automatically made.
You can confirm each app, or choose to only confirm the more risky apps.
- If you run the script again (after testing your installation), it will detect the backups from the previous run.
You can then choose to restore the backup files, or delete them from your device.
- You can now also create a default UnBloat list, that can be used to UnBloat after flashing a (new) ROM.
It is created by checking for installed apps. If an app is not found on the device, it's added to the list.

}
Feel free to edit and change the script.
If you make any improvements, please let me know so I can add them to the script.
This includes reporting what apps caused problems when removed, or comments about apps.
You can find the script in: /META-INF/com/google/android/update-binary (or on GitHub by clicking the "Source Code" link below)
Instructions can be found in the comments of that file.
--UPDATE--
Added Step by Step Restore: You can now choose which apps to restore, so it is easier to troubleshoot your installation.

I'm using TWRP 3.0.2 as well...
Did the install reach the menu at all?
Can you look at the log file to investigate? (TWRP --> Advanced --> Copy Log --> Open log file from your SDCard)

Thanks for your bug-report and logfile!
It says it couldn't find the script, and after investigating I found the download link to GitHub creates a folder too many inside the zip.
I was hoping to have the available download automatically give the latest version...
I guess I'll have to create a release after every update, and update the link accordingly...
I adjusted the download link in the original post.
this is great! i made my own debloater script, but your is so much more elegant! i hope things dont change much when we update to 8.2....

I have just released version 0.4, which allows us to create a default UnBloat list.
This can be used to UnBloat again after flashing a new ROM.
(I'm hoping to use this in combination with OTA updates. I'll write a howto if I manage to get this all to work)
Thanks, i try it...
EDIT: i have removed many apps on my rn3se (kate), wipe davilcache but i've a bootloop :?
Good restore option
Hey @Zappo, did you already get the update to 8.2? Will you be updating the script for the new miui?

I'm running the MIUI Global ROM 8.0.3.0....
As far as I know, no updates yet...
If anyone knows of new or other Bloatware, I'll update the script accordingly.

If you have found the app causing your bootloop, please let me know. I'll add it to the risky apps list.
I use the "restore one by one" option, and try to find the problem-app that way...

Hi.
Big thanks for your hard work. At this moment i have personalized your list but i think that velvet.apk is a possible problem
This "# The file number doesn't have to be in order, but should be unique." is no true otherwise the script does not work well (es.: items 0-1-3-4)

You are both correct and wrong; they don't have to be in order, but do have to be ascending without interruptions (can't have missing numbers)
Ex: items 0-1-3-5-4-2 is OK.
I didn't think it would be a problem, as items don't have to be removed...
I will review your list, and add a comment to velvet.apk when I have the time. (however it didn't cause any problem on my Mi5s)
Ok, thanks.
Do you know where can i find mi apps description?

Yes, it should work for all MIUI 7&8 devices.
If software in the script is not found on your device, it will be automatically skipped.

I agree this kind of got lost in the code...
New software is only installed when removing bloatware the first time (or when no backups are found).
It should be automatically installed when choosing "Remove/Restore bloatware" from the first menu.
However when a backup is present on the device (folder "UnBloatMi" by default), this is skipped...
I did this, presuming new software is installed after the first run, and if a backup is already created it doesn't have to be installed again.
Hey @Zappo , found this project for redmi note 2, and it's so heavily debloated, i haven't seen anything like it. Maybe you can look over it and add a few more things to debloat? I tried to recreate it but I don't know which qualcomm apps are essential to our phone, i had only bootloops... Anyway here's the link https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/development/best-sot-t3434915
Edit: i can provide you with a list of all the contents of the rom, i extracted the system partition.
{DEPRECATED}
This project won't release a new version because I see no reason for that since modified lib v.2.3 is working fine on OP5/5T without breaking OOS functionality.
Hi guys,
After intensive try. I’ll glad to tell you that I just found the way to fix GCam Front facing camera portrait mode without using Magisk module. (which break Face Unlock functionality in OOS)
Instead, my method will dynamic change library only when needs to use GCam and you can revert to default binary, then you still can use Face Unlock.
THIS MOD WAS TESTED WITH OXYGEN OS OREO ONLY
Warning:
Your warranty is now void.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards, your phone won’t boot. Use it at your own risk
Prerequisite:
1. Root with Magisk (My app/script only test with Magisk)
2. Busybox NDK (Magisk Module)
3. My file.
4. Disable all lib fix module. (prevent confliction)
5. Recommended Gcam APK: https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-arnova8G2/
How to:
Ver 3.5.1
1. Download my file here View attachment FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.1.zip and don't move to another folder. (should be in Download folder or XDA folder)
2. Install this app from the archive (FixGCam-by-aillez-Unified-V.3.5.zip)
3. Allow storage permission of my app. Long Press the app and choose App info > Permission > Storage > Enable it.

}
4. Open the app and tab Read me/Tutorial button and read it first.
5. Tab Create required file button.
6. Wait until it shows toast about "Required file has been created"
7. Auto-Mode is Fix binary and automatic revert after screen off. (It'll ask for root permission)
8. Manual Fix and Revert is for a user who wants to trigger it by their design time. (It'll ask for root permission)
9. Pick GCam dialog will show after you fix binary (either Auto-Mode or Manual) PS. Only supported for Pixel2Mod and Pixel3Mod by Arnova8G2
10. If you think this mod helps your life better and it worth for some donation. Please help donate
Troubleshooting.
1. If you get "Archive not found" when tab Create required file >>> Download My file first.
2. If you get "You don't have a required file" >>> Tab Create required file button.
3. If you get "Busybox not found" >> Install it.
4. If Create required file doesn't say anything to you. (report by some users).
You need to create a folder name "FixGCam-by-aillez" in internal storage and extract file from archive to there. (As a workaround) Folder structure should be like this.
and you should not tab Create required file.
5. After I fix binary Gcam still don't work/Capture Pink image. What should I do?
Sometimes Gcam already running before change library and load default binary. Fc Gcam and try again will help.
Updated: Should be fixed in V.3.5.1

Can you try this link?
how do I Import project??please make a step by step video of how to install or atleast write a step by step guide please
Hey! It works amazingly well....
So, I was thinking about triggering the revert task to exiting Gcam rather than screen off. The only problem is that it detects exiting Gcam if you go view your photos from within the camera app. I can't figure out how to make it work. Anyone with more Tasker knowledge know how to make this work... I.e. tie the fix to launching the app, then get it to revert on closing the app? I know there are downsides either way really.
Working great! Thanks ?

I use Nova launcher and I've set it so that if I swipe over the Gcam icon, it launches the Tasker fix. I modified the Tasker fix to launch the app after it successfully patches. So to run Gcam I swipe. To use it again before I turn off the screen I just tap the icon.
in my case the camera app doesn't take any picture in portrait mode with the front camera
No errors when the task is execute and works well the restore for the face unlock...but I can't take the photo
OB3 + Arnova's v6_beta15
EDIT: It's necessary to enabled hdr+ front camera
Thank you very much man I really prefer face unlock over fingerprint and I often use my camera (thank God we have gcam to replace stock camera) and it was a pain to have to reboot to get either gcam or face unlock.
It's working for me on OB3 with arnova Cam and other version of gcam.
Good to see it's working for you
I'll try to write a script to run without needs of Tasker since not everyone using Tasker.
But I can't give you ETA.
