Hello,
I want to use the patern lock method. The problem is that when I want to unlock the phone I must swipe the screen first and then to use the patern.(I select the only the patern method). I have searched the web(a lot) and still I can't get an answer.... On my previous phone(Note4 with Android 6.1) this behavior was not present. Is there a "magic " setting that can end my suffering?
Thank you in advance!
What happens when you also include fingerprint as a option?... meaning you have both pin and fingerprint as options.
You also have to swipe to use the iris scanner too...annoying for sure.

There's an option to have it scan for you iris as soon as you hit the unlock button.
The swipe is present if I chose pattern+face or pattern+iris...I just can get ride of it...I must swipe first and then biometrics or pattern...
No swipe needed, go to settings>display>navigation bar then turn on Unlock with home button, no need to swipe now just push the home button.
looking to slove this as well on galaxy s7 active...
we don't have the nav bar option...
Hi
I want to create a shortcut for one hand mode (3x home button) so that it is an action like "back" on the navigation bar so that I can put it in my swiftly switch pro menu and access one hand mode with a single action instead of pressing the home button 3x.
Any ideas how to do that? (I just switched from iPhone to Android and am a newbie)
Regards

Hi man. I'm from Russia, firmware may differ. But I have a choice: a jesture or a 3-push of a button. I prefer jesture.
To make it work you should swype diagonally from edge of screen (down and right edge). Also, if you hold a bit longer, you can change the size of the screen (bigger / less). See "One-handed mode Galaxy s8" on YouTube
It is completely legitimate to make a shortcut button or icon to one hand mode instead of thosr cumbersome gestures.
Here is how to do it :
Simply run this terminal command from any method or script '
am startservice -n com.sec.android.easyonehand/.EasyOneHandService
This works on the galaxy s5. This rune the service to activate the one hand mode.

There is, at least according to my intense research and my logic, no way to open directly an app in pop-up mode. Indeed even Samsung doesn't have a shortcut for this, at least not at my knowledge.
But, it is possible to launch the multi window launcher and then launch an app from here in terminal with root :
am startservice com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService/.MultiWindowTrayService
This command is only for the launcher. Normally there should also be a terminal command to put the currently on-screen app in pop-up, just like the slide from corner gesture.

Yes and no, what I mean is that the app is not directly launched in pop-up because you need the extra step of opening the side launcher.
One way is as I did, to replace the home button with the side launcher (1 tap = side launcher, 2 taps = home screen) , it is possible with Nova Launcher.
What would be equally perfect is to find a way to open the app directly in pop-up with an activity on the home screen or, once the app is launched thanks to Tasker for example force the app to go in pop-up automatically. It must be possible because the side corner swipe to put the app in pop-up is simply an activity or service or some thing of some sort, but I haven't manage to find the command line.

The thing is i am on android pie so i dont have the multi window "launcher" the way i can open a app in pop-up window is either thru swiping from the edge of the screen or going into the recents apps and clicking the app icon and clicking open in pop-up mode

On this android version it is easier because there are root apps in Play store or in Xposed to manage this, isn't there? I think a saw few apps claiming to manage multiwindow for this version.

1. I never saw any
2. I cant root
When trying to move the PIP window to the right side of the screen, it would close the window. If i try to move to the right just a little, it would bounce back to the left. It would be nice if there is an option to disable swipe to close
Anyone got this issue where when I change from gesture to button navigation, then going back to gesture got the prompt to learn the gesture so i just tick the remember option and cancel, then wham it not change to gesture navigation and stay at button navigation.
After that i can never change back to gesture navigation.
I find this is so annoyinganyone got solution or workaround?
