Hey guys!
I recently began to use Roms which is based on stock again, and one of the feautures i miss the most from cm7/miui is the ability to force-close an app with a long press on the back key.
Does anyone know of a MOD or something that can enable this feature on stock roms?
Or can point me in the right direction or something?
Would be awesome to have it on stock roms!!

FC appears when an app is stucked, at least this is happening to me. If I keep pressed back button, it will display a dialog.

On stock roms you can view the running programs through the inbuilt program monitor and close them .

I think it's a feature of CM
I could be wrong

Yes, but this isn't the same, nor as easy.
I'd hope for this feature too, as I'm about to go from a Droid 2 with CM7 to a Droid 4 ... root will give me most of the things I want, except this.
In galaxy s2 you can use jk deluxe settings (search it) to use this function on stock (need root) rom
Settings>Developer options
First activate them at the top, then head to the bottom of the list, the entry furthest down is the one you want.
This should work for any ROM with dev options available, which frankly I think is everyone...

Its a ROM specific function and as far as I know there is not any mods available sadly

Title says it all really. Is it possible to add apps to pie controls? I've seen pictures, but can't find out how from anywhere.

hi lazy guy...the i-net is full of howto´s. if you use lmt, then go to lmt, on the top hit pie. than i.e. push pie item 1 - than select app and choose your app. that´s it.

So I have to use that. That's all I wanted to know, just thought it would be more efficient to use the one that was already there if possible.
Whats the big deal with the pie control? Its almost useless , you can use your button to navigate, sliding on the edge of the screen and using it almost same with the existing physical button is making your life too complicated

Hard to reach back button one handed on Note for me at least, so I find it very nice to use.

What about phones which do not have physical buttons?
I don't know the best way to word this, but on like the S3, S4, if the screen times out and shuts off, you have a few seconds to turn wake it up again WITHOUT having to swipe/drag anything...
Does that make sense? ha...
I want that...
That makes sense. It's built in the MIUI ROM on my Xperia S at least, would be interesting to see if there is an app for it.

An app would be nice too, I just don't want some 3rd party lock screen.. I like my Sense! I also love Viper so I don't really want a different ROM..

What you're referring to is actually under display settings, but regardless that isn't what I mean. I want it to automatically lock, but on the occasion that I'm not ready for it to happen, I want to wake within a few seconds without a drag. Like the galaxy phones.

Ahh on stock that makes sense. Sleep just determines how long until the screen shuts off. I don't want to change that.

To be quite honest, the "lock after" option under Security does exactly what you're requesting (unless I'm misreading your post, which I doubt). However, that option only appears if you have some kind of security lock enabled, as opposed to just one of HTC's lockscreens from the Personalize menu.

Regardless, I still have to 'pull up to unlock' which is what I don't want to have to do if the screen JUST shut off.
I can put a vid of what samsung does I guess, since its tough to explain..
However I do appreciate the help attempts!

I own several Samsung devices, so I'm aware. You do know that there is the "No lock screen" option in Personalize that you can combine with a security lock, right?

Must just be the ROM I'm using then. If have no lock screen, I don't get any options for security lock. Also there is never anything in personalize.
I can disable the lock screen yes, but I don't want a security lock..
No security lock. Are you sure you know what I mean? No offense meant, but so far nothing has been relevant for what I actually want.
I have installed CM 1.2 and I hate it. The wifi is worse, all of the popular apps (Instagram, Facebook, Whatsapp, etc.) are not available trough Google Play, the battery drains about 5% per hour in idle, it's buggy because it won't lock when I press the power button.
I can't find any differece between CM and JB except that CM has a bit different settings and more bugs.
How do I go back to ICS? JB sucks on P880 because the phone will get laggy due to low RAM.
If I go back to ICS, can I use my warranty for the phone or is it screwed because I have unlocked the bootloader? Is there no way to lock it again?

I did not say that CM is laggy. I tend to never get spelling errors on the CM keyboard, but on the JB stock keyboard I do a lot of spelling errors...
Anyway I hate CM because:
- Sometimes I can not lock the phone by pressing the power button.
- When the phone is locked the display will be black for 2-3 seconds when I press the power button
- My WiFi connection is weaker
Yeah, it pretty much just feels like JB but more buggy...

Ehm this here is xda, we are developers, its not easy.
If you dont want all this flashing fixing then go and stay on your sweet stock rom or buy nokia 3300...

If your ROM is so good coded, why can you not make a guide that is easy to follow? There are so many ****ty steps and tons of different threads made by kids that you have to go through in order to install CM.
Also the battery icon is disproportionately thin. It's so ugly and looks so unaligned that I want to cry every time I see it.

My first impression when trying to install CM on a smartphone is "this is messy and the documentation is bad", which doesn't increase my hope for the ROM at all... If the developers can't make it easy to install, then how good is the actual code?

to me it looks like that!
- if u cant lock the phone properly then maybe something is wrong with your gapps u used.
- if u have big latency to unlock maybe: either u run on low cpu values/ powersave or conserve governor/ homescreen is with some live wallpaper connecting to the internet to send ads and a theme thats overweight.
- wifi definately isnt weaker. maybe it sometimes shows wrong signal bars on statusbar ( for example im above my router and sometimes i see 3 bars out of 4, but checking the signal further i see that its at his maximum power ).
About cm ? yea first impression is always the tough one. even when we saw boobs for the first time when we were kids, we thought OMG those are nice. it cant everything be so easy, click here and everything is done...

agreed to that xD iphone is so easy to jailbreak etc. cydia has everything setup so easy, "press a button and do your magic"
but we are on 5s now and still the galaxy s4 is better when we buy apple, we pay the apple logo. this apple logo costs one and a half months salary in greece.
This is just a trick of my mind.
Requirements-
Nova launcher
Screen off & lock https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock
Steps-
Screenshot added
Note-
You need to tap power button to unlock,this trick is just works for screen off

hi! i can't select Relock workaround option 2...i'm on apex launcher pro.
Yeah ! This thing is pretty Cool !
Aaye! I am also using the same thing! It feels very cool
However, I have assigned the Screen Off app to Swipe Down gesture of the Nova launcher.
Yes, its sad that we have no way to Switch On with any gesture as it needs hardware interaction. But, still, I have tried some solutions, which included Proximity Sensor of the Phone, and they were just amazing
i use slimbean
and with volume wake and this lock trick, i don't touch my lock button at all ^^

i only hope that that will not lead to big battery consumption :fingers-crossed:
Touchscreen has to stay awake. So yes it will drain some small amount more. But you can always disable it if you dont like/need it.
