[APP] Smart lockscreen protector

Hi all i made an app to avoid unwanted people can power off, teh device (or put in airplane,mute ot reboot) , this from lockscreen.
if you hold power button a power menu will show, so even with any password everyone can turn off the device. if you have apps like Cerberus for tracking, any thieve can turn off the device, so this app can avoid or at least make difficult turn off the device and works better for non removable batteries (i know you can use hardware buttons, but not everyone knows this).
So my app block the long press power button and close "power menu options", only when you are in lockscreen, you can use in other circumstances. its battery friendly
No need root, but if you want use a custom menu, you will need for reboot y power off only.
Any issue please let me know, if you like my app please give me 5 stars, any issue please contact me before leave a bad feedback or 1 star.

Hi folks. Works on 5.0? actually doesn´t work for me. 5.0 LG G3 D855P + Root. =( Thanks from Brazil dev!

Hello dev, i bought the premium version and i am loving this app, really useful
I saw today (06/10) that it's been updated to v2.1 and before i update i read the description where it says: "removed optional Notification(sorry it will be always on to prevent stop working)"
It works fine for me the way it is right now (marshmallow 6.0.1 on rooted galaxy s7 flat) and i absolutely hate having a persistent notification up there, but i am willing to try and see whats happens, but just in case i don't like it, where can i download the previous version of the apk (2.0 i'm guessing)?
Thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

You don't have to,I will return the notification optional

Cool idea! I'll try to use it

Thanks for your app, which I had purchased. It fully worked on stock Android 7.1.2 on the Google Pixel for blocking both the power dialog and status bar from being pulled down. On the final Android 8.0 on the Pixel, it still works for the power dialog but doesn't block the status bar from being pulled down on the lockscreen.
I hope you would consider updating your app to make it work again for that part. I would absolutely donate another $1 to have that feature again.
Thanks!

[APP] Bixby Remapper - Works even after Samsung's patches + Google Assistant Support!

Bixby Button Remapper is an app with a main focus around simplicity and performance. There are 2 different modes: "More Stable" mode, which is very carefully curated so as to not impede on device performance whatsoever, and "No Delay" mode which works like every other Bixby remapping app these days and uses more CPU power. Luckily, you have 2 options!
Play Store Link
APK

Bravo (sir)!
Thank you! I'm using it to open AutoVoice (maybe other AutoApps tools) which opens up the world to Assistant, Alexa, or Tasker. I'm sticking with double tap power for camera.
I got it through Play store to give you visible credit!
Thankfully the S8 is fast enough that you don't care that Bixby flashes before this kicks in.
Try this app, we need to support our devs!

Kick ass! Works great on my unlocked S8+! Though I haven't yet installed the ota update!

Great work! I'm keeping bixby assigned to the button but glad developers are finding ways to add user choice.
Bravo.

This app is great!
thank you

Works fine for me

Works well! but you have to have Bixby enabled (I disabled it with Package disabler pro) otherwise the button doesn't launch anything at all. Would be great if you was able to make the app function without the need of Bixby being present.

After T-Mobile update, this still works a treat! Great job and thank you.

Has anyone tweeted the guy from Samsung yet letting him know they got pwned? Lol, maybe we should just keep it to ourselves... Excellent work on this!

Still works on my T-Mobile S8 after OTA update. Now if I could just figure out what I want to pen instead. Have it set to do nothing for now. Bixby was getting on my nerves, but I didn't want to completely disable it. I'll give Bixby another shot once they add the voice functionality, but don't know if I'll use the button for that.

would it help on the bixby screen i see ?
i mapped it to my messages and when i press the button you see it open the bixby screen for a seccond then it openeds messages , i have to option for shorter delay enabled as well, app working great but when i was using bixbye i didn't see bixby screen at all. so just wondering.

i still havent even been prompted for the update at this point. Nor have I even set up Bixy. For this app to work you're saying I need to go through the setup of bixby and basically turn it on?

Yeah, unfortunately at this time that's the only way for remapping to work. Sorry about that!

Update 1.04 - Apr 24
* This app now ONLY receives Accessibility Service events from the Bixby app. There should be no device performance decrease whatsoever by using this app.

[App] BixBye - New and fast Bixby button remapper!

Latest Update: Here we go! The Alpha_5.0 version of the App now supports the latest Samsung update. For those who haven't got the Samsung update yet, you will be pleased to know that BixBye will continue to work.
Latest Update: Tasker Plugin is now added - you can now BixBye to any complicated task.
Major Update: BixBye is now the only App to perform actions without launching Bixby itself (invisible to your slow, naked eyes!)
Hi everyone! After some private testing with some kind XDA members, introducing BixBye.

BixBye, lets you remap the Bixby button even after the Samsung patch, I have noticed more such Apps popping up. However, I have got some feedback that this one is a bit snappy. Let me know how is your experience.
As it goes without saying, the App is highly experimental and is in Alpha Stage, things may not work as you expect to. However, your feedback will definitely help me improve the App.
For this initial release there is some limited amount of options available, more will be added if the App works well for you guys.
Download from Google Play Store. (Please don't forget to leave a review at Google Play Store!)
BixBye in action:
UPDATE/NOTE: From the reports I have received so far, what I understand is that, Bixby itself is a bit inconsistent in its behaviour when the physical Bixby button is pressed. Sometimes it takes a single press to launch and at other times a double press or long press.
BixBye relies on Bixby to function. Once Bixby is in memory, you will notice that BixBye functions quite fast.
It's very likely that Samsung will issue more updates to improve the snappiness of Bixby itself, as a side effect BixBye will become even more snappy. So, updates from here on will be win-win for us.
Thank you @bstapley, @yaddam205 and @xPr0metheus for helping me test the App.
Thank you @theherkman, @xPr0metheus and @apoapostolov who have especially helped me do countless tests to optimize BixBye for Lockscreen! A lot of patience and time, much appreciated!
If anyone is interested in helping me test bleeding edge builds/experiments/improvements please PM me your Skype ID, timezone, free time availability.

Thank you all for the support.

Please upload another link. The link is broken.

Just gave it a try and it works great.

If you can't download it from your phone, it works downloading it from a PC

Sweet can't wait to get my S8 and try this

Works for me on a exynos S8 up to date.
It would be even better if we could enable some options with the button, like immersive mode
Thanks for your job !

Working fine here on a VZW S8+ w/ the latest update. Great job!

On T-Mobile and it does not work. If you turn it on, button does nothing. Turn it off and Bixby works. Installed from play store.
Edit: It does work with double press. Side note, if you uninstall it with it turned on it seems to disable the button.

Seems to be working fine for me. Now just need double tap and hold. (AT&T)

It works half. I use it for going back to home. It opens Bixby in a flash and then goes home. So it opens the app

The App relies on Bixby itself to work, so you may often see Bixby peeping in every now and then.

Interesting notes. So from what I understand so far, Bixby itself sometimes takes time to load up, and sometimes doesn't even respond to the button properly. I have got reports that, once Bixby itself is loaded properly and stays in memory, BixBye works very fast.
I will add a note to the first post about the same for new users who may be confused.
The good thing is, when Samsung improves Bixby with future updates, especially regarding its responsiveness, as a byproduct BixBye will also improve without any code changes from my side.

Can you make a "do nothing" option?

Package disabler, select all the Bixby files. No root or reboot.

A "do nothing" option is possible but it would still bring up Bixby for a split second.

After testing all of the current ones, this one is definitely the fastest. Obviously you still see Bixby for a split second but it's the quickest to get out of it. Sometimes you don't even see Bixby at all.

Major Update: BixBye is now the only App to perform actions without launching Bixby itself (invisible to your slow, naked eyes!)

Wow excellent work on this, doesn't even bring up Bixby for a second. Great work dev.

Bixby app updates ! Bixby today ?

I woke up this morning and all Bixby apps awaiting updates in Samsung Apps. Bixby Voice isn't working yet and AT&T customers awaiting to check it out (not having access to beta.)Rumored to be today so there's hope !

It first showed up as an orange notification in the top right of the message app. Clicking the notification took me to galaxy apps and updated my messaging app. I then went to my apps within the galaxy apps and it had several bixby installations....I think it was like 5-7 bixby items that were being installed. I first noticed the change when I went to send a message and accidentally hit the stupid bixby button. I seen bixby come up and I was able to dictate my message. Dictation worked great!
Believe what you want, I know what my phone did and that's good enough for me. I could careless what you believe and when you get the update, you can go through the same update process that I did, and thennnnn you can remember back when you was a >@$% for saying FOS!!!

I updated but no Bixby voice since Samsung is not ready yet. For what I know it maybe at end of this month in USA.
On Edge of Galaxy

I wanted to chime in that my Bixby updated earlier butndidnt work. Just tried a bit earlier and it's working. I've been playing around with it and it seems pretty cool so far. Ive been reward points playing it. Seems silly but fun I guess.

Mine just updated. Att s8+ with unbranded firmware. Working well, can do more than I expected. The dedicated button is a little less useless now lol.

I updated a bunch of Samsung apps through the galaxy store including bixby voice earlier today and it did not work. Just went to galaxy store again and now i have a new app to update called Samsung personalization client. I updated/ installed it and the setup for bixby voice came right up and it is working perfectly.

Same here, bixby voice just started working for me

Question Override hardware keys?

On Galaxy phones, the Bixby button can be overrided completely to allow for a number of customizations using 3rd party apps and ADB.
Is there potential for this to work on GW4 for the Samsung Pay and Bixby shortcuts? I'd love to be able to use Google pay and GA Go instead for the hardware long press shortcuts.

I'm using Google pay... Think it's country dependant..

Google pay.... double tap...
hold two get bixby

I don't use Google Pay, but I mapped Google Go (assistant) to the top button double press. I don't think there is a way to unmap Bixby as top button long-press.

Yes I know that the double press can be remapped. I'm taking about the long press for hardware buttons.

Thanks! I considered using AutoWear to do it since I'm actually an avid Tasker enthusiast with countless hours flushed away in if statements. However, it requires your phone nearby to work. It's a nice workaround just not the one I want. Thank you for the content though! I bet somebody will see it and use it.

Having to have the phone nearby is a major downfall. Not that it is the cleanest solution, but you can also make google assistant open right after Bixby opens using tasker/AutoWear as well.

Only as hint...
Maybe usefull to do some research... is it Kernel related... or Framework or any APK hold Key control...
I can remember other solutions for other devices...
Something with Bixby if I am not wrong...
Google and/or XDA search is your friend...
Best Regards

i found these in logcat entries, this is what happens when the back button is long pressed

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

i don't have samsung pay in my country so long pressing is useless. maybe someone could implement a listener for this AKEY_EVENT_FLAG_LONG_PRESS thing and have it do something else

Someone on reddit appears to have managed to replace samsung pay long press with google pay, but when I import his project it says I am missing a plugin.

I just got it to work, you need AutoWear beta installed

Yes, I forgot to edit my post that I too figured out that AutoWear beta is needed. Cheers!

Hello. can you describe in detail how you did it?

I haven't done Android stuff for quite some time so I decided to quickly throw something together.
This doesn't require a connection to the phone.
Seems to work nicely for now (though I haven't tested actually paying with it yet)

Why would you assume that I didn't research the topic first? Do you just go around trolling XDA forums "recommending" or "advising" people to do research on their questions? This thread is producing excellent information and content for possible workarounds by great minds putting their heads together. This is how it works so Please save it next time.

Has anyone tried this yet? Seems so simple compared to the tasker/autowear solution.

Oh wow now you got me excited. I'll be trying this first thing when I get home from work. I'll report my findings.

This is excellent information. I will try doing something with this when I get home using AutoWear.
