Nav bar menu thing, w/ Google Now - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
I am currently using the Maximus ROM with Sense 6 and I was wondering how you call the pop-up slider thingie which you get when you swipe up from the home button? The one where you can slide to Google Now.
I am wondering this because I would like to know if it is possible to add other buttons to this menu, but I haven't got a clue how it is called so I cannot search for it.
Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

In the Sense Toolbox Xposed module, there is an option to add Voice Dial and APM shortcuts to that ring. They call the mod "Extended Assist Panel" under Control Mods. I haven't seen anything that allows you to customize the shortcuts to put there, but I really haven't looked.

Thanks for your reply.
I also found another setting in the control section of the Sense 6 toolbox, which brings your device to sleep when swiping up from the home button (so no more Google now, but I don't really care) so I'm all good!

[Q] Quick question

I searched for this but found nothing, is their any mod or app that has a press to unlock feature? Instead of a slider, just a press to unlock. Thanks for any help in advance.
i think widget locker may have that option using the hardware keys rather than on screen touch
yeah it does, im really wanting to find a on screen button. i had it on my old iphone 3g which i just cut on for the first time in over a year, and relized how nifftie it was lol
I like your icons btw

[Q] Longpress Home Google Now changeable ?

Sup,
When you longpress the Home button you can swipe it up to the Google Now.
I don't really like this Google Now. It would be way better if you could start any App via Home button. i.e Camera.
So does anyone know of a fix/hack/mod to change Google now ?

and i don think on stock rom maybe u can change it by custom rom like CM

You're right. But Longpress also works ^^
Ah well, I'll wait for official 4.2 and switch toa custom ROM then.
Hey @Haldi4803
I suggest you take a look at the excellent Slide Launcher which allows for launching multiple custom actions, including camera app, quicktext a contact, etc.
If all you want is launch a single app, no question asked, you may use Home Button Launcher
that looks awesome! Thx dude!

[Q] Access to quicksettings from swiping [Home] up.

Hi guys,
Currently on HTC one, we can access to google now by swiping up from Home button.
Can we somehow use that to access to quicksettings instead?
Thanks.

Never seen any Mod that does that ... Why would you want that, it really isn't any quicker than swiping from the top with two fingers
Try Google Now Swipe.This app save me from Google Now.Now when i swipe from home it opens My Car app.

If you are root, you can try the LMT launcher.
With that, you can customize all the gesture.
For now this launcher is not working great with the HTC one. Everytime you reboot your phone, you need to re-select the correct type of device (it change randomly).
I recommend you to disable the pie and only use the swipe part.
Thanks guys, google now disabler works.

Viperone can map all the buttons to whatever you like. Works flawlessly. I have swipe up to search, not Google now. Useful for searching within apps.
Sent using xda app on ViperOne.
Yeah viperone Rom maps buttons love it works great

[Q] Fastest way to access Google Now "Voice"?

Anyone know how to access Google Now "Voice" on the Xperia Z lockscreen or before you unlock your phone?
Google Now widget doesn't allow that.
Currently I can either have google search widget or icon on home screen.
Even if I can change the "long hold soft home key" to go directly to voice instead of search that would be great.
Thanks!

There are plenty of ways if you are rooted, I personally have it as the center shortcut on LMT pie controls.
U can also use gestures to activategoogle now coice using LMT.

Thanks for your reply.
I should have added that I would like to keep stock launcher/lockscreen and without any additional apps running in the background if possible.
I really have no use for additional controls.

Ok then if you can, install uccw and create a widget with a google voice hotspot.
My phone is going through the flashing process or else i would've seen what else was possible.

Yeah, been searching around and looks like I may have to install an app.
uccw sounds ok. I just want something as unobtrusive as possible.
Checking out the playstore for some gesture apps as well.
Did you try holding the home button for a second then swipe upward after you see Google now icon appears. Then say "Google" it will automatically activate Voice command. I hope it helps.

just swiping up from the home button is enough, I think.

Disable one button nav touch and hold gesture

Hi,
for the most part I quite like the One button navigation feature to be able to get rid of the on-screen buttons. But sometimes a longer touch gets interpreted as touch & hold and the Google app opens which is annoying.
Does anybody know of a way to disable the touch & hold gesture? Or is it possible to configure the actions? Maybe open a different app? Thanks.
Doesn't seem possible with the Moto app. Maybe when ROMs come out for this device there will be a way to modify the actions.

Go to settings, search for Assist & Voice input, or go to settings-app, then touch the gear for more settings and you should see Assist & Voice input settings. Once there, change the assist app to none. It will show you all the apps that can set themselves as the assist app. I use Cortana.

Woohoo, thanks! That did it!
I'd thought I've been through all settings screens, but I totally missed that one.
