Flashlight Gesture - Google Pixel 4a Questions & Answers

There was a thread discussing a flashlight gesture from Moto and OnePlus that's not in stock A10. I can't find it to respond in it.
I found an app that allows for a double tap of the back of the phone for that (or other actions). 4a is not officially supported yet but the app works.

Assistive Touch Update Idea/Wishlist (Nexus 6)

I were recently introduced to this app called "Assistive touch" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.easytouch.assistivetouch&hl=en) and it is nice but it would be more useful if you had the back button as an option or screenshot but mostly just the OPTION TO TURN DATA ON/OFF with one tap of a button as well as accessing notifications with a smooth interface. Mind you I have Rooted Nexus 6 device rocking the latest CM12.1 Mod and with that being said is there any roms that could provide that or apk apps or am I pretty much SHOL..

Nice work! But double tap registers as fast tap like 9 of 10 times (whichever delay value i use).
Swipe (fast tap) does not work on a Honor 5x with CM13

Try to tap it a bit slower. It takes experience...

Do not tap too quickly.
Does smart lock and fingerprint to unlock functions works without root?

Swipe function do not work, no matter how quick or slow tapping. There is no reaction.
Is root necessary for it to work, or is it just not supported?
In stock rom swipe is working with fingerprint.

No way found to do this without root (yet).

Root is not needed for swipe fast tap. I cannot test Huawei over here, closest thing is a Nexus 6P (Huawei made) which works. Maybe some other members can reply.
Do you get a "finger moved too fast" on your lockscreen when you do a fast tap/swipe? This is to determine whether the app works.

No, there is no message showing up.
All other functions work in your app. I tried also the functions where root is necessary, I rooted it to try out - everything works except swipe.
Why does this app require a persistent notification while Fingerprint Quick Action does not?
Great job on this vary helpful app. Works great on my stock rooted Nexus 6p 6.0.1

FQA has the option to prevent from being killed by system and it requires persistent notification. So, it's the same way.

why did it have limited number of tap ???
Nice app! Could you add an option to open the camera with single/double tapping? That world be great
Awesome!

OFF-Screen Gestures

How do I get off-screen gesture feature like YU, OnePlus, OPPO, and Vivo devices ?
Drawing gestures on display while the screen is locked and off triggers certain apps like camera, music and so on.
Including the 't' sign to trigger flashlight.
I tried most of the third-party apps but nothing works.
I'm running Enigma V4.1, I also installed lineage 14.1 previously but that doesn't work too.
Maybe Its not possible in our device.
Our kernel don't support that feature...

Ask: Fingerprint gesture on stock ROM

Hello, I just bought new Z6 and satisfy enough with the stock ROM. Current Firmware is 17.1810.2005.153.
Just 1 feature I need most, that is fingerprint gesture.
I see some custom ROMs here have this feature.
How can I enable this on stock ROM? Is there any magisk module for this?
Thx
Which gesture do you mean exactly?
With stock ROM there's only one fingerprint gesture available, swipe down on the fingerprint reader to drop down the notification area & quick settings.
This can be found under settings - advanced - gestures & motions - fingerprint gesture.

Exactly that feature i meant.
Other custom ROM has enriched this feature with addition gesture such as: swipe left, right, double tap, etc.
I have this feature on my old phone and very helpful.
I wonder if there is addition to stock ROM which is quite satisfying for me at this time.

[SOLVED] Double Tap to Wake ? (and other question (before maybe buy))...

Hi,
Have this phone (exactly "Moto G Pro"):
1. Double Tap to Wake (native) ?
2. work fine on it "XDA Navigation Gestures" ?
3a. is possible (while phone sleep) using FingerPrint for PowerOn and direct to home? (i plane using NovaLauncher)
3b. swiping (while phone is on) over FingerPrint show Notifications?
4. Have any type of "AmbientDisplay"? i mean, phone sleep on desk, i pick up it (without pres key, lcd, fingerprint) and for some sec is show time, notification icons, "etc"...
BTW: actualy i have Nokia 7 Plus, but after some update, lost AmbientDisplay, after replace broken LCD lost DoubleTabToWake and Proximity sensor is always on (while incoming&outgoing call is always black lcd and if need interaction must disable sensor before call)... Then i try find good replacement with AndroidOne(on market with A10), FingerPrint on back, DoubleTapToWake and nice to have stereo speaker, and "Moto G Pro" look as one of fev with stylus (although not "digitizer/wacom" but "only" capacitive) as nice bonus
Thanks
nobody have "Moto G Pro" ?
I know it has something similar to your ambient display question although Motorola calls it something different. I use it. When you pick up your phone or it knows your looking at it, it will display date, notification, etc. I don't think double tap to wake is supported natively.
@bigrooster88 thanks, i finally buy "Moto G Pro" and to me #0 question:
1 - practically yes in Settings/Display/PeekDisplay/Settings/TapToWake - this for one tap show PeekDisplay, with second tap&move switch do home/last_app, then for my use is same as dt2w
2 - XDA Navigation Gestures work like a charm
3a - yes FP (if not locked) go direct to home/last_app
3b - swiping over FP can be enabled to pulldown notification bar
4 - similar as AmbientDisplay[Nokia] have Motorola PeekDisplay and is better...
then i am satisfied
Yes I like peek display
