If you have a Note Edge that's been updated to Lollipop, Samsung changed the camera app and moved the capture button to match most the other Android devices.....
I won't like the new camera app for this reason.
So there is no way to bring all camera controls on edge screen
I too dont like new camera app now...

Selfies are easy, you can use the heat-rate sensor on the back to snap a picture.

Help please I have the same issue >> I need the camera control on Edge screen not in the main screen , can any body extract apk of the stock camera from kk ?
Edge Camera
Hi,
It's better to use voice command than switching to camera tap on main screen.
I also talked to Samsung customer service but those morons are acting like they have no clue what happened wrong.
Regarding selfies either prefer voice command or use your index finger on the sensor below the camera( at the back) , it will capture pics.
but the place of shutter control over Edge screen is much better ,, it is the reason why I bought galaxy note Edge
Please help >>
Edge Camera
We were using kitkat for nearly 4 months with the camera tap on edge screen and had no expectation that this will be removed in lollipop update.
So its like we all are facing the same issue but Samsung seems to act like an idiot by changing the edge screen functionality from camera app.
Have no clue to get it back other than downgrading to Kitkat.
if downgrading to kk will erase and wipe all data I will not do it ,,, so we need help here

Titanium?
my problem is customaising the forldes and downloading program data which will take 3 days of my time .. titanium not restoring these things
2 options that work for me
1. Samsung Smart Switch for PC. This has replaced Kies and copies your images and documents as well to their respective folders. It also copies the app apk. So after that you can just restore the app data from Titanium
2. For a full copy of the sd card, Unified Android Toolkit works pretty well. It's useful if you have very customised data folders.
folders of icons of my downloaded software in the app menu ,, no way to restore the order and content of folders which I made it
Restoring launcher data from titanium restores any folders and app order in both the home screen and app drawer

Just did a factory reset on 915G. Used Titanium and successfully restored all the folders and settings in app menu, launcher and edge bars in stock Touchwiz launcher as well as Nova. All icons, folder content, and order were correct. Just remember to do them last, after restoring all the apps.

What we need to do is open a law sue about it.
Im for real, the same thing happen with sony when they removed "other os"
So we need to together and complain.
They didnt give us any warning.
I remember i rooted a phone to to get rid of the ota update naggying screen. I didnt want to update.
But short of all that we cant change it.
I decided to open this thread due to the fact that the Galaxy s7 Edge Always on Display does not recognize/rotate in landscape mode when the screen is off.
For some it may not matter. For others it will. For me it matters.
Now I was able to achieve landscape mode on my Lockscreen
Adding these two lines to build.prop:
log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE
lockscreen.rot_override=true
Also I achieved Landscape on my launcher with Nova Launcher, then in settings, look and feel I enabled auto rotate.
As for the always on Display I have not been able to find any information.
If anyone has any information on the subject it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Not sure just yet. This method does not work with touchwiz unfortunately.
At one point I could rotate my display in any direction (even upside down) and always on display, as well as touchwiz, would rotate. For some reason that no longer works. I guess a bug gave me what I wanted for a bit. The camera app can be used upside down and you can temporarily use the phone upside down after closing the camera app but it doesn't seem to effect Always On Diaplay. I want to use my phone as an alarm clock on a stand, preferably in landscape so this is a disappointment.

I'm sure all in due time and if we all spread the word and gain interest we can make this happen. Just have to figure out the proper resources and direction to take to remedy the issue.
Would be nice if samsung just enabled rotation support for always on display and Lockscreen.
I'm using
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=nl.fameit.rotate
For autorotate. Works for touchwiz and lockscreen.
Unfortunately not for Always on screen

Me too. Used this app in the past with my s3/s4 and my first mirrorlink radio
Under display turn Always on off and try turning on night clock I like it better than always on
the night clock is to dark at daylight
I've developed an android app for bringing Always On to all android devices with AMOLED screens. It's called "Always On: Ambient Clock" . And it does support landscape mode.
I can't post a link now since I have only 5 posts but you can search for it on Play Store.
Needs the ability for everything being displayed to move random after about a minute. For it to stay stationary is not good for the display.
Also it prevents the wave to wake feature from working on samsung devices.
Needs some work.

Hi, I just pushed an update for fixing burn-in issue.
I don't think it's possible to add the wave to unlock feature as the proximity sensor is used to detect if the device is in pocket or flipped.

I think if you set a slight delay for in pocket detection may help. Or make it less sensitive, it goes black if I just hover my hand over the screen. Should be a delay or less chance of accidently enabling it.
Samsung has it on the s7 edge that you can have pocket detection and wave to wake.
Must be a way around it.
What is the font of the Samsung default clock?
Thanks in advance
Figured out a workaround.
I realize this post is almost a year old but I have discovered a workaround, at least for the Photo Frame option of the Always On Display. If you make a separate album in your photo gallery with your pictures ROTATED to landscape orientation, and then assign that specific album, it will work.
nice app - just installed it -anyone know if the battery usage / screen burnin issues on this are better / worse than the s8 always-on?
I really appreciate the landscape - hate in the middle of the night the night to see it sideways
Found a way if your rooted

If you are rooted and have Xposed installer go ahead and get gravity box and enable lock screen rotation it should work it worked for me on my Galaxy S6
EDIT: I recommend to update to LOS14.1 built by Cozzmy13 since May 2017, seem stable without any major issues besides video recording freezing at 30s mark, so can't really record anything longer than 30s FIXED, pretty much everything else works fine. You should be able to do dirty update, but just in case always make backup. Don't forget to download ARM64 SuAddon for superuser and flash opengapps pico ARM64 7.1. Continue in this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4c/development/unofficial-lineageos-14-1-t3602604
Unofficial Cyanogenmod 14.1 (Android 7.1 Nougat) for Xiaomi Mi4c brought to you by @AndropaX (I am not author of this ROM, all respect to @AndropaX)
Download build 20161105 - 497.8MB - MD5 - 2686946d15d929f8c8e6a60c60dcf9aa
Flash together with OpenGapps ARM64 7.1 Pico
Works:
RIL (calls/messaging/mobile data)
Wifi
GPS
IR blaster (tested with Peel on LG TV)
camera incl. video/120fps/HDR
and pretty much everything else except Bugs
Bugs 20161029:
- battery saver and performance menu crash - fixed, can be changed to Efficiency
- battery indicator style - fixed, can be changed to big text percentage
- missing reboot in power menu - fixed, also Advanced power menu through developer options works
- button brightness settings - not fixed
- fingerprint sensor notification - removed, fixed
- double twist for camera - removed, so i guess fixed
- preferred network type in system profiles crash - not fixed
- default SIM for calls/data blank (select manually in SIM settings)
short review
boot is faster than Hikari No Tenshi, default theme seem to be a bit darker than HnT at least in quick tiles, Last app through Menu button works fine, no wifi 5/2.4ghz switch (as in other CM14 builds), switching from full brightness in camera to previous brightness elsewhere seem to work OK, default vibration has normal intensity, not as strong as in HnT
new (untested) - lift to wake, power on sounds option, extra settings edge double tap (was in HnT build too actually), force allow apps on external, force activities to be resizeable
wew that was fast
great work @AndropaX and please keep this thread maintained
i'm still in cm14 now, and waiting stable version for this cm 14.1
Thanks btw
Few more bugs to add;
(Note, may be caused by flashing STOCK GAPPS post setup wizard)
-Google Keyboard crashes (if installed via stock gapps, this leaves the user without a keyboard)
-Pebble app crashes
-Google app crashes (latest beta - used to enable assistant)
-Fingerprint setup shows in setup (got my hopes up slightly as a Mi-4S user... sadly, non-functioning)
-DoubleTwist for camera is non-functioning (at least, on Mi-4S)
-Default Sim for calls/data is not set by default. This causes Stock GAPPS to fail in allowing the user to complete setup (dialer crashes back to "turn on data" screen). If this could be fixed, it would allow for that to work
The good news:
-Rom is very smooth, RAM usage is less than 1gb for me (Kuma CM13 is closer to 2gb used at idle)
-Antutu score of 69k! great for a first build! congrats @AndropaX
-Snap Camera works (even 1080p shooting)
-Best news of all - SD card is working in Mi-4S which has failed in every other CM14 build I've tried (including my own). Well done mate!
All in all, a seriously good start. Needs work, but more than that, it needs a round of applause for @AndropaX. Well done mate, very impressed. Please keep it up and know that if you need any Aqua testing/logs, I'm your man.
Thanks

no problem with Google keyboard through Opengapps
fingerprint setup notification on top of settings for Mi4c (which lacks FPS) was also in penultimate build by Hikari no tenshi but you can just swipe it away and ignore, very minor annoyance
blank default SIM for mobile data even when using only 1 SIM was also in all previous HnT builds, I dont really consider it bug, just go to SIM settings and select it first time and it's fine, it's minor annoyance at first install
can't verify pebble and google app
double tap on power button for camera works fine, double twist doesn't work (or i don't understand how to do it properly, tried many ways, none of them work)
RAM was 1.2GB for me, don't care about Antutu, I would prefer actually Efficiency mode for longer battery life, will play with kernel adiutor i guess
default DPI is 440 btw.
very smooth on my Mi4S, no problems with keyboard. I think there should be a pack of gapps from opengapps that works correctly, includes Google App.
As usual, no fingerprint sensor support

select it manually in SIM cards settings, it's mentioned in OP, if still having problems remove all APN and add appropriate one for your carrier
I can confirm some bug founded by @BlackXhorneT,
And I'm found another bug (maybe only me),
-Calendar app force closes,
-And in setting > display, I can to turn on everything like ambient display etc, and after closing setting app (by pressing back button), and retry open display setting, some options come back to off again by itself. But ambient display etc still work.
Another bug. When you make a system profile and you go to select to changepreferred network type it says cyanogenmod settings stop and it goes back to the settings menu.....
Very important(for me) to have a profile for home for the road for the car etc......
If anyone else has the same please report........

Overall this phone has been way above expectations. There are a few quirks that hopefully will get addressed in a future update and hopefully Huawei is watching...
1. USB charging from laptop/desktop/car. It trickle charges at 200ma, most other phones charge at 1 amp and up connected to my car. Same with my laptop. Not having good charging in the car is a problem because I cannot use another charger with Android Auto, I have to have it plugged into the car's USB port. All my other phones would get at least 1 AMP charging rates, I don't need super charging or anything, but 1 amp or what the car can support out would be nice.
2. Camera crashing. I have to reboot the phone almost every day because I go to fire up the camera app and it cannot connect to the camera. I am not a heavy camera users either, but I do use video chatting about an hour a day. Basically all the cameras front and back just go offline after some use.
3. Using a 3rd party launcher like Nova, it's fairly buggy, but it sounds like this fix is already in the works so we'll leave it at that.
4. When using gesture navigation the left and right swipes for back need to be physically lowered on the screen to say the bottom third. There are a few apps that need this swiping action (Google play) that will close. I have to do the swipe way way up high to get the phone to not invoke the back button.
5. Less aggressive background task killing. I still have some things that get killed once in a while even with all the appropriate things set.
6. Some sort of on screen notification light or alert in conjunction with the always on screen so we can visually see at a glace if there is a message waiting. Just a simple flashing dot in the corner would do.
The only other thing I had noticed and this only happened once so might be a fluke was that the alarm clock failed to play my custom alarm tone, it instead played some fairly quiet beeping noise. Not good if you rely on the alarms waking you up.
The bugs I would like to see fixed are the gestures as well and the systemUI issue when using the minimum width setting in developer options and the fact that it resets after every reboot. Ive never had a camera issue with my device so I'm not sure if it's just related to something you have installed or just a glitch as I factory reset mine after I got it. Double tap to wake would be nice also.
What's buggy about Nova Launcher? It's working perfectly on my end.

Double tap to wake is a good one...
Nova Launcher - when swiping up to go to the home screen, most of the time it actually goes to the recent tasks. But I thought others that didn't use gestures had alot more issues?
I will clear data and cache on the camera app and see if that does any thing.... Possibly its the Line app I use for video chatting as that uses the camera alot.

Install OnePlus gestures from the Play Store (it's cheap) and use that. It will override the Huawei bottom gestures. You'll still have the Huawei side gestures though.

1. They won't change it. This is why the have a super charger for the car.
2. Never had a single camera issue.
3. Nova works like a champ. Uninstall stock launcher via ADB. Install fluid gestures from store, ZERO problems.
4. Use Fluid Gestures from play store.
5. You can change the background killing in development settings. To be less aggressive.
6. Won't happen. Have to find a workaround.

Fluid Gestures is indeed better than OnePlus Gestures...
1. A Car supercharger wont work with Android Auto, I can't imagine this is intentional as with any generic wall charger and cable I get about 2 amp charge rates.
Thanks a bunch for the Fluid Gestures. I always swiped to the home screen.

I was finally able to get ADB working and grant Fluid Gesture the capability to remove the navigation bar, however what I notice is that any time my keyboard is on screen (Swiftkey) the navigation buttons show up at the bottom again.
Are you guys seeing this too?
EDIT: I found the option to disable this in Fluid Gestures!
Set the system navigation to gestures. Fluid over rides it. No more navbar and perfect working gestures

Unfortunately that doesn't work. The Huawei gestures still run and work. If I swipe in from the right edge up high above the Fluid Gestures region the Huawei gesture does kick off unfortunately.
But I am able to disable the Huawei gestures completely and this is now working good. Especially since with Fluid I can disable only the left gesture, which make sliding out the Google Play drawer from the left work great now without closing the app.

While you're on your PC using adb I would also disable the Huawei launcher and any other apps you don't use. I got rid of about 60 apps that I don't use, most of them were Huawei ones like email, calendar, dialer, contacts etc.

I'd love to do that, but i'm afraid of breaking something I can't back out of....
When you say Disable do you mean delete?

It disables the apps. Just remove the launcher and the small Huawei things like email or whatever you don't use. You can leave everything else to be safe.
I'd like to see some camera updates.
The portrait mode for both the front and rear cameras are subpar. They don't perform as well as the GCam found on the 6T, let alone the actual GCam on Pixel phones.
I'm also experiencing Bluetooth issues with my headphones. They'll connect but audio will be significantly chopped up and delayed. I have to disconnect them and reconnect sometimes, and last time I had to unpair them.
Also would like to see better use of screen real estate. It looks bad having 5 quick setting tiles per row on such a big phone. 6 or even 7 would look great.

Unfortunately that doesn't work. The Huawei gestures still run and work. If I swipe in from the right edge up high above the Fluid Gestures region the Huawei gesture does kick off unfortunately.
But I am able to disable the Huawei gestures completely and this is now working good. Especially since with Fluid I can disable only the left gesture, which make sliding out the Google Play drawer from the left work great now without closing the app.

How did you remove the Gestures? Is there a specific app to remove via ADB?

They are off by default, It's under System Navigation.
Just leave Three-key navigation on and the system won't do gestures, then in fluid you do the ADB permissions to enable it to hide the Huawei bar.
UPDATE
So after using the phone for a while now, I'd like to update my original list of things that need addressing....
1. The constant crashing with the camera appears to have been fixed with a factory reset, so that is now fixed!
2. With Fluid Gestures it seems we have a decent work around for gesture controls with 3rd party launchers.
3. Less aggressive background task killing. I still have things once in a while that don't notify me on time with messages. When I open the app then the notifications come right in, this tells me the app is getting killed in the background. (Happens most frequently with the messaging app "Line")
4. I'd still really like some sort of notification icon on the screen with the always on screen, but I guess that's not a huge deal.
5. Really the only major thing is the USB charging at super slow speeds from my laptop or in the car. 200ma is just way too slow and is not like any other phone charging from the same sources.

Overall this phone has been way above expectations. There are a few quirks that hopefully will get addressed in a future update and hopefully Huawei is watching...
2. Camera crashing. I have to reboot the phone almost every day because I go to fire up the camera app and it cannot connect to the camera. I am not a heavy camera users either, but I do use video chatting about an hour a day. Basically all the cameras front and back just go offline after some use.

Do you have the width setting in developer options on something other than the default? I noticed the camera crashed a lot when I had it set to 600 dp. Now I left it back to the default of 423 dp (text and screen at smallest settings). Icons and screen settings are still too big for me but everything is working fine.
Praying for root soon.

I didn't change anything in developer settings, I just move the 2 sliders in the display setting all the way to the smallest size.
But Factory Reset did fixed the camera crashing.....
Tap, Tap is a port of the double tap on back of device gesture from Pixels running Android 12 to any Android 7.0+ device*.
Tap, Tap provides over 50 actions that can be run from double or triple taps on the back of your device, including:
Launching an app
Launching a shortcut
Toggling the flashlight
Simulating button presses, such as home or back
Running a Tasker task
Quick Tap to Snap**
... and many more!
The gesture can also be fully controlled, to only run under certain conditions, or run different actions in different scenarios; such as only when an app is running, the screen is off, or when listening to music (many more options are available).
The sensitivity and response of the gesture can be controlled, picking from 8 "models", trained for devices ranging in size from 5.7" to 6.3" in height, as well as finer control of the sensitivity of gesture detection, meaning there is a configuration that will work well for most devices.
Tap, Tap also tries to be easy on the battery, only running the gesture detection when required, and integrates with the "low power mode" available on select Pixel devices, otherwise using the lower-power machine learning capabilities of devices, where available.
* Your device must have an accelerometer and gyroscope.
** Requires a compatible Pixel device or root, see this page for more info.

Changelog said:
Version 1.6.1
- Fixed crash on Android 14 Beta 3
- Updated dependencies
Version 1.6
- Added support for Android 14 DP1
- Fixed Low Power Mode on some Android 13/14 builds
- The "Apps" requirement now displays the selected app on the requirement list
- Removed checks from switches since it broke the animation
Version 1.5:
- Added new Samsung model from RegiStar
- Added new action to simulate rotating the device
- Added support for LG DualScreen devices for foldable gate
- Fixed a number of crashes
- UI tweaks
Version 1.4:
- Fixed Native Mode on Android 13, and as a result it now requires Shizuku or Sui. This is because of restrictions to the READ_LOGS permission on Android 13
- Added Notification Permission prompt for Android 13
- Updated Material switches to newer Material You style
- Updated dependencies
- Added touch on screen action, thanks mauri870
- Updated Traditional Chinese translation, thanks cracky5322
- Fixed incorrect button action during setup
- Fixed crash on Android 10
- Fixed incorrect notification for gesture actions
Version 1.3:
Introducing Native Mode, a new low-battery usage mode for Pixels with official Quick Tap support. This mode, similar to the existing low-power mode, uses the system component, but does so without needing root (on Android 13) or a constantly running Shizuku service (on Android 12). To set it up, you will need to use ADB or root once to grant a permission, after that it will run without further actions being required.
Please note that Native Mode does not work while the screen is off, and you may find triple tap is harder to use with it enabled. Both of these are system restrictions and cannot be worked around.
In addition, 1.3 fixes some crashes, updates translations, and fixes Quick Tap to Snap from the lockscreen.
Version 1.2:
Tap, Tap v1.2 disables the Tensor Low Power Mode by default as it was causing issues with some devices not working with the gesture.
If it was previously working for you on 1.x, and you experienced battery improvements, you can re-enable it in the advanced settings.
Low Power Mode on supported Pixels with Shizuku or Sui is not affected by this change.
- Added missing alarm permission
- Fixed more app shortcut crashes
- Improve foldable gates
- Added monochrome icon for Android 13
- Translation updates
Version 1.1:
- Fixes for Android 13
- Fixed app shortcut related crashes
- Fixed service starting on boot even if it's disabled
- Fixed crash on start on Android 7.0
- Added Do not Disturb enabling action, thanks Kylian Meulin
- Updated translations
Important: If you are on Android 13, you MUST now use Sui to use Low Power Mode (Sui requires root). This is due to platform restrictions, there is no workaround.
Version 1.0.1:
- Fixes for various crashes including Snapchat, App Shortcuts and network issues.
- Improvements to device specs lookup for model recommendation
- Improvements to notification & quick settings expand/collapse actions
- Actions & Gates that are unsupported will now give a reason why they are
- Added Battery Saver gate
Version 1.0 is a full rewrite of the app, from scratch. It contains a brand new UI, a number of new actions and gates, and implementation of the Android 12 'Columbus' gesture code and models, including a new Low Power Mode for Pixels.

Reporting Issues & Feature Requests
If you have encountered a crash or error, please make an issue on the GitHub Issues page. For crashes, include a crash report, which Tap, Tap should create for you and show a notification after a hard crash (enable the option on the "More" page first if you have disabled it). Before making an issue, make sure it has not been reported before, and does not fall under the "service killed" pinned issue, as those will be closed and ignored.
To request a feature, either make an issue stating "Feature Request", or post a reply in the XDA thread. Note that only relatively simple features will be considered, anything more complex including toggling specific system features should be done using the Tasker capabilities of Tap, Tap, as the app is not meant to be a Tasker replacement.
I just installed it on my Pixel 4 XL and I'm really impressed by its accuracy. Also the UI looks very nice, good job!
I tried it on a Xiaomi mi8, works great
Wow, this works surprisingly well on OnePlus 7Pro, even with a case on. Although sometimes I'll go on a run of it working 10x times in a row, and then it won't work for the next few, and then go back to working again.
Currently using the Pixel 4XL model as I think it's the closest out of the three. It definitely needs more of a deliberate tap - tap instead of a super quick double tap to be more accurate, but that's not a problem at all.
Super excited to see what (if any) improvements can be made to the model, or sensitivity in the future.

Worked like a charm on the Mate 20 Pro using a Spigen case. This is awesome.
Tasker Integration
Can't wait to see the Tasker Integration to open up the whole new level of potential.
Thanks for the app!

Same on Redmi Note 8 Pro
Works well on my xperia 1! Thanks
Id love for this to work when the phone is locked. Perhaps with root or magisk? Definitely willing to pay
Working Perfectly on Mi A2 Lite Major thanks to such an awesome Developer
Nice work, installed on my Galaxy Z FLip and it works great, can you add the ability to double tap and choose a shortcut too
THank you for the greatwork!
Trying it with my s10 exynos and it works great, little weird at times with a case but it still works 90% of the time

Disable the screen off gate lol
And turn on the wake device up feedback if it's an app launching and not something that will work with the screen off

Double tapping might not be possible, the tensorflow model appears to be for a single tap only, but I might be able to figure something out eventually.
Shortcuts as in like launcher shortcuts to call someone or open Maps directions? Probably will add that.
Tried on my Redmi Note 7 Pro using Havoc. The default command seemed to work but I changed it to back button simulation, and it doesn't work. My phone vibrates, telling me that Tap, Tap recognized my tapping but the command wasn't executed.
EDIT: lock screen works

Do any of the other actions other than the default setup work? That would help rule out whether it's an issue with back or an issue with actions in general on that device

Sorry I was unclear. It is disabled. But from my experience in the past with apps such as button remapper I have been unable to get screen off commands to work properly. In that instance using volume buttons, it was possible. But not for dedicated camera keys etc.
Now, with the gate disabled, flashlight, Assistant do nothing when the screen is off. When it is on but in the lockscreen it still doesn't work. The phone is unlocked work trustedagent,too.
Works really nice on a Pixel 3. The app is really well made and I love the design.
