Is there anyway to change the double tap camera to the GCam App? I have it set as default but I don't know if there's a way to change it system wise. I'd assume that would take root access? or something like that?

So basically u want ro remap double tap to open gcam app ryt?
I just changed the default camera app to gcam, then double tap the power button. Then a popup came asking me which app do i want to open it with, then i selected gcam and always. This remaps the double tap power button to always open gcam.

it only opens gcam when the phone is unlocked. if on lockscreen or even screen off that double tap always opens OP cam. Even if you deactivate the op-cam, it doesnt help. on lockscreen then simply no cam is opened at all.

Well I would like to use tasker to create a gesture to open my camera app. But I don't want just to turn the phone on side, but also tapping screen, or any key or something like that. Is there any way to do it with Tasker or other app?

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.

Awesome!

Thanks for the update. Works great on my stock rooted 6.0.1 Nexus 6p:good:
Works and then stops working as soon as you leave the app
Many of you might know this trick but those who do not know this can use it
You can take screenshot of snaps quietly meaning your friend will not know that you took a screenshot i.e. NO NOTIFICATION
How to take screenshot:
1. First enable Google Now on Tap from google now settings.
2. Open snapchat and open the snap you want to capture.
3. As soon as you open the snap long press home button and now on tap will activate
4. Press the share button in now on tap menu
Now you can send the screenshot to your friend or upload it to google photos or google drive, i dont know how to save it to gallery if anyone knows please tell me...Enjoy

Thanks, does it still works?
You can use a screen recorder as well. If you have a phone running Android version 10 or above, then there are chances that it comes preinstalled with a screen recorder feature.
To find it, scroll down from the top of the screen to open the notification panel. On the top, you will find a quick access shortcuts bar.
Within the section, scroll and find the Screen Recorder. You might even find the Screenshot option in there.
Here’s how we will be using this screen recorder tool to capture Snapchat stories without notification:
Open the Snapchat app.
Find the story you want to capture.
Scroll down the notification panel and tap on the Screen Recorder option.
It will begin recording your screen. If it isn’t already, then tap on the record button.
Now open the snap story and watch through it.
Once done, tap on the stop recording button.
The screen recording will be stored in your internal storage. Or in the specified folder if you have changed the default preferences.
It is important to note here that screen recording, at times, can send notifications too. But it works for most people.
So since you are going to try this for the first time, I will recommend you to try it with a friend who won’t bother you by taking screenshots of the snaps or stories. I found some more ways here to Snapchat screenshot stories but not sure which will work like airplane mode.
I wanted to write a quick guide on how to hide the navigation bar permanently, in the easiest way possible and then use gestures to replace the nav bar soft keys.
This solution has been tested on the Exynos S9+ and you need to be rooted in order for it to work.
Steps:
1. Have root
2. Install the gesture control app of your liking, before proceeding with the next step. Set it up and make sure it works after rebooting. I would recommend either all in one gestures (free) or edge gestures (paid). I actually prefer edge gestures. Play around with the settings to get the most intuitive gesture navigation for you, I have added screenshots of my settings for inspiration.
3. Navigate to the system folder with a root explorer and open build.prop with a text editor. Add the following line to the bottom of the text qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 and save. This tells your device that it has physical navigation keys, so it should disable permanently the soft keys. To revert this simply switch the '1' with a '0', or delete the line, save and reboot.
4. Reboot your device.
I'm not a developer, I just had to piece together this simple solution for a much more natural navigation experience.
I don't notice any slowdowns or battery drain with this solution.

I just tried the app "edge gestures" and it is well done, very customizable and works very well... apparently.
I installed the companion app "more gestures" to get a few more things to do. I wanted to swipe and hold from the right to turn off and lock the screen.
The shortcut works and it locks the screen as it should, but, for some reasons, I can't unlock my phone using fingerprint or face unlock, even though those settings are enabled. As soon as I touch the sensor I get prompted to use my pin, and if I hit the back key under the numpad, I go straight to the lock-screen, and as soon as I swipe up, I'm back with the pin and no use of the unlock sensors.
I had the same option (to swipe and hold to lock the phone) from Samsung's "one handed operation +", but I wanted to use one single app to have the 3 edges of the phone covered and this one seemed optimal for that, instead of using xda "navigation gestures" together with the Samsung's one.
As soon as I disabled this "edge gestures" app, and reinstated Samsung's and xda's one back, everything turned back to normal, face and finger unlock working again.
I wonder if I should have enabled other settings or permissions I'm unaware of, for these apps to work without conflicting with the unlock part.
Has that happened to anyone of you too??
Hello, how can I disable the accessibility icon in the button bar ?
Maybe it's impossible
Same issue here. I had it activated for something to do with FFBE on my other phone and it carried over to my OnePlus. Unfortunately, there is no option to disable or enable it, they've seemingly only added "triple tap to zoom" and hidden the icon zoom.

Sorry to hear that...it's quite annoying for me because this button use the right place of the back button of my old OP3 !
I tried the navigation gestures ans it's no no no...
Cheers
Disable the android Accessibility suite. Search for it in your settings, disable the app and it should go away.
