Help with lockscreen / screen off tweak - Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm looking for ideas that are not "try gravitybox"
The goal is to fix the lockscreen coming up a second or two before the screen turns off.
Currently the lockscreen comes up just before the screen turns off.
Rom doesn't have any screen or lockscreen settings to tweak this.
Using SlimLP 5.1.1

Cosmetic issue, correct? You have answered your own question. CM and Nexus do not exhibit this behavior (don't know about the others). Gravitybox and likely a few other Xposed modules can indirectly fix it. What else is there to know?

Purely cosmetic yes
I'd run Gravitybox on the Nexus rom..
Since Slim is already modded more so I just don't want to load up the big suite for 1 feature & hope nothing else conflicts

A choice you'll have to make in absence of a fix from the rom maintainer. Be aware none of the GravityBox features are 'active' until you take action. Using lockscreen tweaks leave the remaining features inert.

Cyanogen Mod 6 Final?

I've had RC1 since it came out and haven't updated since I never knew what was changed or added.
The official changelog doesn't list what was changed from version to version -- very annoying.
So... For anyone who is running CM6 Final, is there any benefit to updating from RC1? Any new features? Performance improvements? Anything worthwhile at all?
There is a lot of great stuff in there. Check out the change log. http://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_vendor_cyanogen/blob/froyo/CHANGELOG.mkdn I believe everything below "Common: Other camera enhancements - Cyanogen" has been added since RC1
Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
The best way in my opinion to keep up with changes is to either follow @cmsrc & all the various CM contributors in your twitter feeds or subscribe to Cyanogen's Github, twitter, and CM forum RSS feeds. I do both. I keep a folder in my Google Reader labeled "cyanogen" that keeps me pretty much up to date with whats going on.
To attempt to answer your question a couple things I think are different from RC1 to Stable would be the
RenderFX widget
restart into bootloader/recovery directly from the power button
obviously ADWLauncher with custom shortcuts & a few other goodies
exporting the XML from custom notifications started working
maybe the new power settings widget?
Touch to focus is the coolest new feature and it works beautifully.
Moving from RC1 means you'll see quite a few changes... most notable would be
1. True 720p video recording
2. Enhanced camera app with ISO settings and many more manual settings
3. Camera touch to focus
4. Ability to set custom trackball colors for apps notifications
5. Enhanced audio DSP (equalizer)
6. System-wide proxy settings

But to answer your question, yes u want to update.

Does this mean Trackball Alert is not needed?
I've never used trackball alert but I would say it isn't needed anymore.
You can choose any color and blink rate for any notification.
It includes options for:
Succession
Pulse in order
Random Colors
Blend Notifications

I never tried it on the rc3 either, but since i have upgraded to the CM6 final, I went to the camera, touched the screen to bring up the auto focus option on top right and switched to touch to focus.
Do you not have that option under rc3?

It's on the Nexus theme and apps board but if you have Rom Manager, it will link you directly to the updated CM6 final version.

[Q] Moto X Lockscreen options

I've got a new Moto X - XT1053 (Tmobile / Dev Ed). Unlocked, rooted and TWRP recovery installed.
I'm mulling over my options in terms of ROMs. There don't seem to be to many stable choices out there until CM get the kinks out.
The problem is I'm spoiled by the custom tweaks in CM based ROMs that have come to seem like the basics>
In the Moto X stock ROM is there any way to:
*add more targets to the unlock slider?
*modify the shortcut bar at the top of the slider?
*modify the shortcuts in the quick links (?) drop down menu?
* adjust the brightness?
For starters, sounds like you need xposed and gravity box. It can do lots of customizations.

Woah. Thanks for that. That is definitely a new way of thinking. I've been out of the game for a while I see.
If gravity box is the starting point, are there any other recommended modules for the main event?

I think gravity box might be enough. Its what most seem to use. There's always apps for this or that too. Like brightness control.

[q&a] [rom][m7][sep2014] aicp - 6.0 - kk 4.4.4

Q&A for [ROM][M7][SEP2014] AICP - 6.0 - KK 4.4.4
Some developers prefer that questions remain separate from their main development thread to help keep things organized. Placing your question within this thread will increase its chances of being answered by a member of the community or by the developer. Thanks for understanding and for helping to keep XDA neat and tidy! :smile:
I've had this flashed for some time on my M7_UL because it functions so beautifully.
I love it so much that I've forgiven it for making my phone crash 50% of the time when trying to answer a phone call, and at other random times about once a day. Not sure if the newest 7.0 release has fixed that or not.
One feature I'd suggest is enable some sort of default CPU O/C controls and maybe smartassv2.
EDIT: Didn't mean for this to end up in Q&A

Even though the rom now supports wake gestures, the Wake Gestures xposed module doesn't seems to recognize it. It says the kernel doesn't support it or it's not enabled.

You need to flash a kernel that supports wake gestures. Elemental x for example.
Wake gestures are not support in th Stock M7 kernel.
Elemental x is for sense based roms. Not for aosp. And if this rom doesn't support wake gestures, whats this?

The problem still remains the same. I used Elemental x as an example (mainly because I don't know which kernels support wake gestures for aosp roms.)
But the fact remain weather a Rom support wake gestures or not is irrelevant if the kernel running it doesn't support wake gestures they won't work. These gestures are an after market feature for the m7. Only the m8 supports Wake gestures officially.

Currently I'm using dt2w with the AICP's default kernel... So doesn't it means the kernel supports wake gestures?

Looking at the main thread it would appear that wake gestures are a "work in progress" for the kernel with that Rom. :good:

Hi, is it possible to restore the old s2w and s2s behavior? I would love to update to 7.0 but since the new kernel, I can't wake my device when in deepsleep, or it needs 5 or 6 attempts. Can anyone advice me which kernel I need to flash?
What firmware are you guys using with this ROM for the m7_ul? I've got the ATT version and I want to make try to get rid of some freezing issues I've been having.

Tethering Issue
This only affects certain carriers. The below fix worked for me.
Do this from ADB shell:

Hi guys,
Just flashed latest nightly of lollipop.
Is the kernel included in the zip best for stability and battery time? Or is there an alternative to be recommended?
A few things I noticed :
Performance settings in ROM control leads to an empty screen that allows searching for all control panel items, is that intentional? I expected kernel tweaker?
Can the x pixel battery bar line be added?
Under settings, and screen, I have an advanced settings headline, but nothing below it? http://i.imgur.com/KYJWJP7.png
What is the status of lollipop in terms of mods that are ported? A lot from 4.4.4 is not ported yet, and xposed can't help due to art runtime. I am aware that lollipop is VERY different from kitkat, and I am not nagging about 'when will x and y be here', just a status from HQ about the transition from KK to LP
Does anyone know about customizing the soft keys and enabling logo key? And does the standard kernel support it?
Any way to customize toggles on kitkat?
I got the wrong apn settings from my carrier, but I guess that's their problem (or mine for running an unsupported Android version they probably do not detect correctly)..
Any way to remove carrier text and camera /call shortcuts from lock screen? So far I have found a guy who will mod system ui apk......
All in all lollipop is awesome, and running superb!! :good:
Thanks to all devs for their time and effort :good::good:
Kind Regards

Battery line at the top of the display. On AICP KK edition it can be 1 to 4 px thick.
Toggles and shortcuts, fair enough
Kernel advice / options?
I miss the Xposed framework, and the rom options for customization, but I will be patient, lollipop is very different from kitkat, and the work being put into this by devs is truly amazing!
I have had a few instant reboots, that's all the problems with this rom so far, and that's really very acceptable

Marshmallow update for Axon pro released

ZTE has released the marshmallow update for this beast. How's the update coming along for everyone so far?
The new update adds stock android features with little to no skinning.
Known issues/changes
•Some users are reporting stock launcher crashes, the problem can be alleviated by using a different launcher.
•Dolby Sound has gone missing, evidence provided by Arsenic53 suggest ZTE done goofed and accidentally removed it.
•The quick settings panel is now Dark and Transparent (very classy)
•Average RAM usage has gone up considerably due to system apps being badly optimized...or maybe they're just being rebellious?
•Bootloader still locked
•Battery drains quicker.
•Nice new booting screen
•Annoying WIFI calling issue has been resolved.
•Some users have reported lag even during the booting process.
•A user has reported that He/She cannot see the screen on some occasions especially when charging.
•The lockscreen is now closer to the stock version. The dialer shortcut has been replaced with a Google now voice function and the annoying "# more notifications" thing has been removed.
•Bloatware app "rockmyrun" can no longer be disabled.
P.S someone please link zte usa's twitter to this thread so they can go over it. Leave a reply so i can remove this message.

The doze feature doesnt come with a dedicated settings tab. if you want to choose which apps get dozed and which dont, go to apps(settings) click the gear and click battery optimization; from there you can white list certain apps from doze (I recommend greenify if you want doze to activate in just a few minutes as opposed to an hour.)

[PORTING] [NEED HELP] [N] Gravitybox for Nougat Unofficial

outdated
go to here
Gravitybox for nougat
removed the "gravitybox framework not responding" error on api 24 and 25
also re-branded the app as gravitybox for nougat
tested working:
battery (kind of)
center clock + day of the week
data transmission Monitor
power setting menu
skip tracks with volume buttons
clock settings
you tell me...
Not working:
Stock battery with percentage
Quick Settings
Lock screen shortcuts
Setting of the optional button
deactivate network type indicator in status bar
Navigation bar tweaks (BRICK WARNING!)
you tell me...
sources for helpers
download links for sdk 24 and 25 are the same
Code:
uninstall the old one, otherwise it'll give "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION: Package com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox attempting to redeclare permission gravitybox.permission.UNLOCK already owned by com.ceco.marshmallow.gravitybox]" error
Since I won't have a lot of time to port everything (btw, I'm already late for one thing right now) so I expect the community to help.
That's why I posted the source at github, this way anyone can collaborate to the code.
Anyone that helps me will get credit too, just claim it someway I can see it
brick fix by @photoguy29
To fix this: Reboot to TWRP recovery and navigate to: Advanced>File Manager>data>data>com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox
Once you are in the com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox folder, in the bottom right corner is a folder Icon. Tap that icon>delete
This will delete all the changes you made in Gravitybox, and upon reboot, the System UI functions properly. The gravitybox apk will also still be installed, so you can go and re-activate your tweaks that WERE working.
credits to @C3C076 creator of gravitybox
For me works:
battery
center clock + day of the week
data transmission Monitor
power setting menu
Not works:
Lock screen shortcuts
Setting of the optional button
Why that rush?
I have already migrated like 90% of the module to Nougat after working for almost 2 weeks on it non-stop. Currently QS management is undergoing redesign and there's still quite a lot of work left. It's still a work in progress - not suitable to be made available to the masses and also, I am still not convinced whether to release something as there is no official Xposed Framework. I'll see.
@ C3CO76
Because I like it a lot your gravity box [emoji41] [emoji39]

I'm glad you like it. But then it doesn't make any sense to release a version that is far from working when you could keep it for personal use.
Feel me?
@C3C076 i guess people love GB so much
This ported xposed for N situation is confusing but people are desperate to have xposed and their beloved modules even if its partially working
Can't live without gb's pie control

sorry, I didn't knew it, I looked into the git and thought that no one would do it anymore (because nougat had been here for a long time)
but still a lot of people are just crazy like me that wants it even if sacrifices need to be made, just like people wants an unstable xposed rather then nothing, they want the gravitybox
and no one uses every tweak available like me, I just use one or two and both works
I'm glad to see you haven't abandoned the project, I wouldn't be able to do it like you
and please release it, for people like us, there are 66422 downloads on the xposed for nougat thread (counting the xposed installer app because it's the same for both api levels and only one version) not counting people like me that downloaded it from the alternate link.
sort of 66422 persons waiting for gravitybox to be released even if it breaks something
and not everyone knows how to release a version that is far from working when you could keep it for personal use, I learned how to use xposed 3 years before learning something that would allow me to do this port (and it still sucks)
Yes, I understand. Hard to tell what comes next at this time. I will be taking decisions after I am happy enough with the migration results and the results of internal testing on various device/OS combinations I have at hand.
not working : deactivate network type indicator in status bar
Is lockscreen transparency and blur working
Not working: Navigation bar tweaks
Activating the master switch will cause the System UI to crash upon reboot.

Stock battery with percentage not working for me.
I believe what this guy is doing, is a good thing, if people get into installing Xposed modules that are unofficial they should know that it's unstable, and in most cases can brick your device. CT, I do see where you're coming from, but it's along the lines of "People don't kill people, guns do." No, that's not how the world works, and everyone on the Internet should be able to share what they want.
Thanks for the mod, working battery percentage (buggy), skip tracks with volume buttons, clock settings, advances power menu. Moto G5+ stock rom sdk 24 Xposed systemless (magisk)

yes, that's what I meant
if you use any xposed version with any module, custom roms, root, any mods you shouldn't care about stability (people do but they shoudn't)
by the way, I looked on the Gravitybox git and I saw no nougat branch
so I did this because I thought that either the creator wouldn't make any more releases or he hadn't started (and if he wanted to use my as base because of the mm to n naming changes could save him like 5 minutes and I wanted to help and this is all the only help I can give)
and I had this mod for myself because Center clock and round battery works and I only use thoose
but I thought on the people at the same situation that coudn't do It by themselves
but thanks again for C3C076 for being patient with my impatience
I'm happy it won't be my job to port the rest of it because it'd be baaad
