Hey guys! This app is an attempt to replace on of the least customisable component of the Android UI: The Recent Apps screen.
Unlike existing task switchers on the Play Store, this app can truly act as a Recents screen replacement. This includes both task switching and task killing.
Unlike the hugely popular OmniSwitch, this app can include a wide range of interfaces for the user to choose from (Current release has only one interface, more will be added with time).
As I said earlier, this is only an attempt, and a crude representation of the actual Stable release.
To testers:
The app is open source (code on GitHub). Feel free to contribute to its development. Also send reports of the bugs that you may find.

hello guys (before i start sorry for my bad English), i have just decided two days ago, that there is nothing better than getting help from the community and other fellow developers. and i know for any successful application, it must meet the users exceptions by having a well functioning and neat application that does what it says and serve the user needs. and for all the other reasons, i have made my application Fast Access (Floating Toolbox) FREE &open source so people can use it and help me improve it as much as i can.
for those who are interested to check out the source code you can pull it from here: Source Code
for those who like to install the application: Play Store
The application has icon packs support and loads more features.
Please guys give a shot and help me to improve it by suggesting and reporting bugs whether here or through github.
thank you very much for your help.

I have a knack to take up old android projects that have been left in the dust and see if they have potential with our current devices and most used Android OS. This current project takes place of something that some of us remember and some of us that never even knew that it existed because the basic functionality of it was eh... So...Here we go.
Welcome to the Slab Open Beta! Slab is currently in development and you will encounter things of un-natural application behavior or just not working.
Slab is a fork of CyanogenMods CMhome application from cm11 rebooted as a Material application and supporting On-Tap on Android 5+. Android N is not officially supported at this time, more testing is underway. Slab will be open sourced in do time once everything is back to working order. My goal is to see this application back in CyanogenMod builds but I'm probably asking for to much.
Slab is a Dashclock extension host application that uses Dashclock widget apps and showcases them in a dashboard like approach. Use the most right fab to clear the "Slab" and use the most left fab to refresh the "Slab". Use the middle fab to bring up a bottom menu of which has a built in Google Search method for users who want to replace Google On-Tap with Slab. To set Slab as a On-Tap application, navigate to the app settings in the android setting and select the menu item default apps, than select assist apps and choose voice application as Slab. If the "Slab" is clear on launch, simply press the clear fab and refresh fab.
Current Issues:
Slab is still experiencing some force closes on entering and exiting so just ignore those until I find methods around them. Click on the Check menu item to exit the application without it hanging and causing errors after you've exiting and it monitors Dashclock Extensions successfully.
Some Extensions are locked to Dashclock Widget which is running out of date and I hope 3rd party extension devs take the time to understand this and allow them to be more free for apps like Chronus and Slab.
I want Slab to operate without the Dashclock Widget app installed.
Goal is to allow it to monitor Extensions without the use of Dashclock Widget installed.
Contributing:
If you'd like to contribute and have free time, I'll push this to github sooner than I plan to only if devs actively want to contribute. I don't want a grab and go operation. If no one wants to contribute than be patient with updates as I maintain other more important projects. This one is just for experience and free time.
Works well on AOSP and CyanogenMod firmware. Im building this application using Android Studio on Ubuntu 16.10, A Nexus 7 2013 with an AOSP 7.1 rom I built myself (Usually flashing different roms for different project reasons), my HTC10 and ofcourse the Virtual SDK.
Again, Application is not complete so some things are either not working correctly or null.

Small demo of the application running. Found that heavily modified or skinned firmware have a hard time running this app. Android 7 has a hard time using the Dashclock host, probably need to build a helper app.
Troubleshooting
The app is not 100 percent yet and you may come to install it and it may seem like its not working but its just hanging and confused so here is a tip to get it working.
Go ahead and Uninstall Slab. Install Dashclock Widget and a few Dashclock Extensions. Now install Slab and check your results.
I may take some time and develop a helper class to replace Dashclock Widget as it seems to be getting outdated. I wish Dlab to be a replacement.

i'm not a developer and have been out of XDA since my HTC HD2
like many of us i have security and privacy concerns regarding today's internet landscape. i had an idea which i'm not sure if it's feasible or not and therefore i'm dropping it here to see if anyone is willing to pick up the project.
i was considering a rom that could take advantage of the blockchain system for most of it's communications (i know, still not enough users), an with the following features:
- a sandbox system to run most apps, giving fabricated sensor data to the apps
- any internet access for the apps would have to be filtered through a firewall that would ask permission, (option for permanent permission or ask every time)
- the firewall would, where possible, identify the server/website that the app was contacting and provide some information about the data being transmitted
- some apps could be given trusted status by the user, (privacy warning given to the user).
- other security features such as the option to completely shutdown the radios.
i'm not aware of anything like this, specially the sandbox, any sugestions would be welcome

Looking at it through a different angle, if there was a spoof library for sensors, contacts, camera etc., we could do a default for all apps to use the spoof library and authorize some apps as we open them to access the real information?
