GoTo Lockscreen

Had never heard of this app until today and I love it... Thought I'd give it a mention.
It's a complete lockscreen replacement.

does it feel as smooth as the standard lock screen? or does it cause some lag?

I haven't noticed any lag.
The only downside in my opinion, so far, is that the gmail icon counter only shows the count of your primary account. Hopefully they enhance that to show counts of multiple accounts soon.

The biggest down side about apps like this is its not a true replacement for the lock screen.. It is just an app that runs over top of the default one.. I bought widgetlocker and now dont use it. I will sometimes see the stock lock screen or it wont have lag when locking it.. I tried GoTo and its about the same..
I came from the iPhone and used intelliscreen which just added stuff to the default lock screen.. Was amazing.. Wish someone could come up with the same type of mod for the android lock screen.. =[

Testing more, the only time I ever see the normal lockscreen is if I enable the option to disable the volume/camera buttons. I reported it, not sure what they'll do about it.
That said, I don't actually want that option enabled so I never see the normal lockscreen in my real use.
I also still have not run into any lag, but I guess that will vary based on a zillion different factors from person to person.
You're right though, I wish that things like this could be true replacements.

Theres a way to disable the lock.screen on htc devices but that's cause its a .apk with some digging around I'm sure someone can disable the tw lock screen. Doing so would allow you to use the app without the stock lock screen showing up. Not to sure about lag thought

That'd be cool... I'll have to search around.

I need to use the phone for a bit longer and test more, but I went into Titanium and froze TWLauncher and I am no longer getting the normal lockscreen, even if I disable GOTO, so I think it is gone.
I do see the normal lockscreen very briefly if I reboot the the phone, but it goes away in a split second and I don't see it again unless I reboot again.
Perhaps that is all that is needed.

This app is the bomb

Nevermind... that SEEMED to work for a little bit, but now if I have the disable volume/camera option enabled I see the normal lockscreen for a split second again. It goes away quickly, but it does appear.
That said, I still never see it at all if I don't enable the disable volume/camera option.

Ok, I installed NoLock (free in the Market) and disabled the lockscreen with it and that works. I see the normal lockscreen very briefly upon a reboot, but never again after that.
I tested a bit longer this time before saying so, lol.

This thing works flawlessly for me. Sometimes my fat fingers have a hard time stopping on the text message one, but that is user error.

Goto is awesome... it even ran with no lag on my hero
Traced with Ultra Keyboard from my *Epic*

So I've been using this for a day now and I love it. Can change the shortcuts to similar apps, can unlock, doesn't make phone lag and it's only .99c

I've also been using it for a day now, and it's a really nice app!
Been seeing the regular homescreen quite a few times though, will try to disable the "enable the disable volume/camera option"' option...

yeah as someone else said you have to use nolock (market) with any lockscreen app but i've heard that it does make it pretty flawless

You can do this and it's probably easier to change your lockscreen over and over, but you can navigate the system, or apply a new theme which either way can change the system files. Someone more knowledgeable than me can chime in as to what you need to do, I'm not sure if you can delete it and disable it that way or if it just puts something else up instead, but I definitely know you can theme the lockscreen because I have seen different ROM's have different lockscreens.

Thanks for.posting this app. Its pretty good.

What about the power consumption?
After 7 hours the battery is completely empty. This is not normal, right? ( HTC DESIRE HD )

Disable Stay Awake

To make a short story long, I enabled the "Stay Awake" option when I did the KB1 update. After I was done doing everything I wanted to disable the option, however when I went to /applications/development the option is no longer there. So, now I am stuck with the option "on" and I would like to have the option back in the settings menu so that I can disable it.
I have pulled up the settings.apk and I can see that in the "development_perfs.xml" that there is the entry for the option.
Any ideas on how I can get this option back?

There are a few widgets in the market that toggle the 'stay awake' setting... see if one of them will work.

I have seen that there are a couple of apps out there that will do the same thing. I even had seen that there was a settings.apk for the vibrant that had the option in there. I would consider these methods as a last resort.
I'm looking to get the option back in the settings menu, so that I can toggle it from there.

Fix?
You could root and use sqlite to change the database, it is risky except that would disable the setting, just go to settings storage in sqlite and change the value from 1 to 0 that should disable it

I went and checked the /dbdata/databases/com.android.providers.settings/settings.db and found that the stay_on_while_plugged_in value was set to 0. So I rebooted the phone and things seem to be better with it now.
However it would be nice to be able to toggle the option from the settings UI.
Can any one point me in the right direction to get that done?

Check the 6 lockscreen mod thread. I saw the op there saying he had reenabled the setting I believe.

I use the highly customizable "Widgetsoid" widget for toggles for:
Mobile AP
USB Mount
Screen always on
Screen on while charging
Screen brightness (4 level)
(all items buried pretty deep in the menus).
Pretty much anything else is accessible to the Widgetsoid widget, too.

[Q] Disabling Notification on HtcPowerManager.apk

Is there a way to disable the notification that is always there in the drop down notification bar? I go to the settings and the option to disable it is greyed out. I don't want to remove it, because I like it how it is. But I really hate seeing it every time I pull down the notification bar. I tried following steps at http://teamdirt.me/showthread.php?126-Disable-Power-Saver_Notification but I guess I'm a noobie at decompiling. I used apk manager and it just gives me the files, not the code that the directions show. What do I need to do to do it properly? Thank you to anyone who reads this.

If you are on 4.3 it doesn't show up unless Enabled, if you are rooted and on 4.3 then you can use Disable Service to disable the notification service through that app. If on 4.1 then it shows when both Enabled AND Disabled so then you can use that same app if rooted to disable the Noti Service. Now, if you aren't rooted then all you need to do is go ahead and Force Stop the app through Settings but will have to Force Stop every time the Status of the Power Management changes. Going this route, same as with the rooted method, will still Power Management and Power Saver to run but not show the Noti Icon.

if you're rooted, we have a mod in our mod pack to remove it from notifications

Thanks a bunch, using the disable service app really did the trick.

You're welcome, I personally do not like installing modifications or modifying system apps due to the high risk of messing something else up but with that app it only disables that service instead of removing it which I am perfectly fine with.

[Q] Missing "Setup" App

Am running the galaxy gear with null rom. I installed the nova launcher and sort of gave up on that, and went back to touchwiz.
Something strange happened recently - my Setup app on the gear itself is missing. It doesnt show in the gear manager on the phone. I tried clearing the gear manager cache on the phone - but it wont show up. It used to show up as one of those black+white big icons on the main screen if you side scroll. I had reordered a few of the main icons - but setup is totally missing.
Actually - I may even be confused. Sometimes if i double-finger tap - I can get a google-style setup screen (starts with a blank screen and a funny icon on the top right). From here I can see "settings" menu - tiny font - rather than the very unfunctional original Samsung setup - which had Display/Sound/etc.
I'm confused what I am seeing really because of the launcher confusion. (I can occasionally see the wifi/BT/battery status at the top).
Its really annoying because I cant easily see the battery status (despite having set this on the setup menu to display - when I could access the setup menu); and the note in the previous paragraph - that I can see the battery status is erratic - sometimes I can see the tiny status line but never when I want to see it - to check battery status).
I have rebooted the device.

null_22.1
Just tried to double tap my home screen - its so erratic - no joy. I succeeded 5 mins ago.

You need to re flash null rom and select the gear set up wizard to be installed. It is one of the options you can select when flashing the rom. There may be an easier fix but worst case scenario that should solve your problem. Also if you don't want Nova you can deselect it during flashing. That screen you are seeing is like on your phone when you slide down from the top of the screen (notifications, settings, etc)

Thank you - let me try that. I remember fiddling with the options on install - so this could be the magic clue.
Cant think why one would not want setup to be installed!

I had the same issue. Ended up flashing the latest null rom which included the set up wizard. Hope this works for you too.

Question [Origin OS Ocean] How to get push notification from various apps (like social and messaging)

Like the title say, I'm in trouble getting the notification of any app I install : I disabled vivo.pem as suggested in one other thread and allow notofication per single app (that were turned off before) and last disabled the background battery optimization for those apps.
No luck after all, as nothing show up when I send whatsapp mess e.g.
Any ideas?

I had to use the uninstall command on vivo.pem to get my notifications to work, disable didn't help me on the latest firmware.
Also, check the app permissions, hold down app, info, app permissions.
Turn off (remove permissions if app isn't used)
Single permission settings (turn all on the switches), you can also review permissions
Go back 2 screens and select notifications, select all sliders and then check your desired app notification is going out via priority display.
Finally go to settings, battery, background power consumption management, and change the setting for the app you want to not sleep by choosing high background power usage.
So annoying, I know, too many settings and easy to forget one
Good luck!

Thanks for the time spent in the long answer; however still no notifications on the tested app (whatsaap) with all the reccomended settings.
Is since 2015 I think that I don't have a chinese firmware phone and the things have changed, in fact, before, was enough to install play store and all the notification were received without further settings.

Hey Guys,
i also did every setting as told and my Notification for especially WhatsApp isn't working at all.
Sometimes it does, but then all of a sudden it just refreshes when I open the App itself.
I even put it down in the Bar with the 5 Main Apps, in hope those would be refreshed or kept alive in the Background.
Not sure anyway what you mean with uninstalling vivo.pem.
Suckz kind of, because apart from that it really is a great Phone... aside from Android Auto not working.

You have to plug in phone on computerand run ADB command to uninstall vivo.pem.
Vivo.pem is a system that aggressively shut down apps to save battery power, to much shut downs and notifications stop working.
Check the thread "Origin Os initail review" on here and you will find out how to do it. Takes only 10 minutes

After doing the uninstalling did it stop the issue?

I uninstalled, rather than disabled, their power saving vivo.pem, ensured all my apps had priority permissions for notifications, disabled battery saving, and added them to 'autostart' in their respective permissions, and I get proper notifications for all the social media and messaging apps. The only small glitch come with Google Messages which won't display notifications in system wide dark mode. You can get around that by enabling the 'chat bubbles' option in Google Messages settings as they do work in dark mode.

Notifications are not the only issue , i cannot select Mock gps location app in Developer Mode ...
I press on the app i want to use ,but nothing happend , the app is not selected .
Anyone noticed that too ?
Thanks

There is no need to uninstall vivo.pem, I think. Just some few steps:
1. Go to recent apps and lock it.
2. Settings -> Apps & permissions -> App manager -> WhatsApp -> Permissions -> Single permission settings -> Autostart and Startup enabled.
3. Settings -> Battery -> Background power consumption management -> WhatsApp -> Select high background power usage.
4. Settings -> Battery -> More settings -> Disable Sleep mode.
Works fine for me.

Do you use Whatssup? after the latest OS update it cannot connect to linked devices
