[GUIDE] Alert Slider - Partial Workaround - OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Since I had the Oneplus 5 I noticed the alert slider's functionality is pretty dumb. I have looked everywhere for a way to have it in silence/vibrate/all and I finally found a partial solution.
This lets you get SILENCE/ALL/VIBRATE in this order from top to bottom positions
Download OnePlus Mode Switcher.
The app lets you set the volume of the standard "ALL" setting to vibrate. It works in the background and you can set it to open on startup.
Set the slider options like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This has been tested and is working on OOS 4.5.10, but it should also work on any other OOS custom rom.
For those who need a much more customizable slider, I suggest MoKee or RR. These roms have the MoKee slider options but they're not OOS based.

don't see how getting used to op5 slider is hard. tbh it's logical that bottom is and top is mute.

It's badly implemented. It doesn't reflect the standard Android settings of silence/vibrate/all.
It breaks all those apps that revolve around those statuses, since they didn't even flag the position change the same way.
The priority setting is useless (for me), it doesn't allow you to mute apps, and so if you're in a meeting you can only choose between them hearing everything or you not hearing anything.
The volume in all/priority can't be set to 0. This is basically them brute forcing a design flaw on us so that we use it as they wanted it.
The settings cannot be changed without Xposed [which for now is unstable and so the old module devs (for 3/3T) are waiting]. This is just stupid, we're on android, not iOS. It's literally just a triggered action, they could change it in maybe 3 minutes counting system bootup and IDE opening time. How much money is that, less than 1$?

I agree. I don't ever use the slider 'cause it's useless..

[Sug] Possible to remove time from top right of notification bar?

Hi guys,
I was going to post this in general, but as it is possible development I thought it may best be suited here. Sorry if it isn't!!
Anyway, I'm no developer so I don't know if this is even possible, hence why I thought I'd throw it out there.
What I was thinking is, as a user of the flip clock and also using Stericson lock screen, I have the time in full view of my home screen / lock screen all the time.
The fact it is in the top right corner is of no use to me really. It's also apparent that when you have several icons in the notification bar (especially when plugged in on USB) it gets crowded and tends to hide alot of them.
What is the feasibilty of removing / hiding the clock from the notification bar, and moving the 3g/wifi/bt/battery icons into the right hand corner?
Would this actually be possible? I know this wouldn't suit all users but some people may like this as it would give more space for other icons to appear there.
Any Devs care to elaborate on this?
Thanks.
If you wanted to hide the time, you could just make it transparent using Ohsaka's colorChange.jar. Of course, that wouldn't help with the crowded icons.
I like the time in the right corner, useful for when I'm browsing the web on a break from work.
Or try alternative home app: Home++

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Sadly this has been asked quite a few times, problem is they wont answer even though people want it.
I guess for now home++ is a good alternative - though I do like using advanced launcher, so removing it properly from the notification bar would be better.
I guess it's just one of them things - although an official yes or no it can't be done would be nice from a dev?!
Thanks.

Few questions about Jelly Bean and Semaphore kernel

Hello, few days ago i've installed (with @xsenman help) JB ROM and Semaphore kernel.
First of all i have questions about notification bar. What is a difference of this two types of volume:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Second question: there is no auto-rotate in that bar. Why is that? I often change it and i liked to have it in notifications.
Similar issue: in the 'OFF phone options' there is no data access enabler.
I know I can find any widget, but sometimes when I'm using applications i want to change these options quickly. Is there any solution to hack it?
/// I found in internet screen like this:
So how can i edit notification bar?
And other case. I think the JB's Semaphore manager is poorer than GB's version. I remember the options about changing the touch sensitivity and screen quality. I remember too that the best option of quality was generating the green colour small issue when it was going OFF, maybe you know what i'm talking about Now i don't see any options like this and i think that sharpness is a little bit worse than GB's & Semaphore.
Well, if you have any ideas for me, please say it
Answering to first question. The difference between these two toggles is the second enable vibration+sound on incoming calls, etc.
Secondly, on the second (buttery butter ^^) screen is presented AOKP ROM with normal toggles. On this screenshoot has been changed DPI (probably to 160-182)
Back to Semaphore. Well, the code has been changed, Android too. You can ask @stratosk for this
Thanks for your answer, so can I edit these toggles?
Yes you can. It's in settings - > notification or something like that. Can't remember it off the top of my head.

Sadly there are only three options: reboot, screenshot and profiles.
//i'm sorry, i wrote about 'off options'
/// so thanks, now i have everything I wanted

Recents key long press for "menu"

Anyone know if this can be changed through settings (or even an app of some kind)? I can't find anything on it.
I really miss this feature from my S5, especially since I don't ever use split screen which is the default for longpress on the S6
also searching for a solution

I agree. Sorry no answer... but I have seen several threads elsewhere on the topic and this is driving me nuts. From a user perspective: I was previously able to surf on my phone and bookmark / share via the menu key with only one hand. Now I can't because of the change in this key. This is not just a case of stubborness: one handed usability is important for many groups - from the physically compromised to late-night-feeding mothers. I hope a developer can offer a work around soon.

If you're willing to root, you can install LMT for one handed control, including menu button access and the thumb reach stretching pointer.

[Request/Thought] Stock FM radio experience port for N960U?

I know it's been discussed before, but according to the N9600 variant getting root recently, the dev @Mentalmuso made up my mind with his WETA thread unsurprisingly the .apk I've been looking for was there but obviously it's unable to install for being a system thing which makes me wonder:
Since the system partition is untouchable without root (which is not in sight) and this apk has to be placed there to work, flashing it somehow is the only option I suppose.
Just for the clarification - I don't like the Next radio experience at all and I'll name the reasons from top to bottom:
1. No record button - this is the most critical for me. The Recforge workaround which I counted on no longer works here.
2. No RDS. There is a built in database that gathers up information on your current location and names the frequencies to the stations in this area. For people outside U.S.A this feature is useless.
3. No swipe for fast navigation across the dial. Inconvenient manual frequency typing forces me to empty the field then type in the desired value, must insert a "."dot for decimal separation.
4. Only odd numbers are displayed. It may as well pick up the even ones properly (since 2016 it should) but still display them as odds.
5. On screen advertisements - I wish to use a service that is already commercial, why do I need such obstacles in the way?
6. Load times - though quite minor flaw but Next radio has a splash screen for at least 2~3 seconds then it takes a few more seconds from the moment you push the operate button until you can hear a sound, compared to the stock operation which takes almost instantly. Also the seek buttons have a small delay in Next radio.
Again, only the miss of record is really bugging me to the point I consider a switch to N9600. If Recforge did it for me (or a sound recorder equivalent) I could live with the rest. Apart from this I'm completely fine unrooted.
Any idea of how to legit flash this .apk or a new way to record that doesn't involve aux and streaming?

Question Changed Samsung for Motorola/Google, worst choice ever, reasons!

First of all, I will say that Google is the most arrogant/ignorant company that I've ever heard of. There are milions of complaints regarding the "NavBar stupid/sht pill"/StatusBar. Why, the hell would I invest in a phone with good screen to body ratio and dpi, if I cant take full advantage of it. Before Android 12/13, you could easily remove statusbar/navbar(pill) the way you wanted. But, Google decided they are the boss and removed all those possibilities to remove those via adb. Another thing, if I try to use a custom gesture app, I can only use the diagonal gestures because the normal ones(left,right) cannot be overriden because Google never allowed that. How shty can a company be to not even care of their users and even do everything against them, really!!
Another thing, is that I still dont have Android 13 on my Moto Edge 30 Ultra while I got bored of it when having S20 Ultra! And another thing is that touching the screen doesnt always wakes it up. Maybe is some sort of measure from Motorola to conserve battery because I dont find them capable of doing something good as Samsung did. Is anyone else experiencing/experienced this?
As I said, on my S20 Ultra I could do all the things, apps like System UI Tuner, cmd commands and gesture, everything worked flawlessly such that I always had a FULL immersive experience. After I changed the company, everything is havoc! Google, shame on you!
If you guys emphatize with how I feel, please thumbs up! Take care!
Look how ugly it looks like. 3 years later and will be in the same situation if we rely on these thieves!!

1. I can hide my navigation bar via Settings

2. No issue with tapping the display to wake up screen. Btw, it's not double tap but single tap.
3. I LOVE the new Motorola homescreen especially the new Motorola widget. Everything is there - the battery widget, alarm widget, weather and clock in one. Very consistent, minimal and uncluttered. Good job, Moto!
