Is there any way to disable full screen keyboard in landscape? - Magisk

Hi. I use a tablet permanently in landscape mode. But in many apps when keyboard pop up, it uses all the screen. In many cases you don't even see what you typing regardless the all screen view.. I really don't understand why they made it this way. I remember in past there was an xposed plugin to fix this. Can't be done something with magisk? I think it is just to much to install xposed only for this. Is there any way to use xposed only for this, without making the system slower?
Thanks,

It's so so annoying, I fully agree! Unfortuately I don't know other ways to do that, but you caught my attention with this Xposed module... Do you remember its name? If it's old, it probably won't work on newer Androids, but maybe worth a shot since I use Xposed

Actually I did a quick research and found out that this module is present in Play Store. And moreover, it's still working on Android 11! Thank you so much for the hint!
As for Xposed, these days we have much more device-friendly Xposed solution named LSPosed. It allows to hook only the apps that are necessary for a module to work. I really recommend it for you if you won't find any other solution. Also I use many other useful modules, if you are rooted and familiar with Xposed to some extent, it's a great field to explore

Thanks.. I already reading how to install xposed.. I'll read about LSPosed then...
I readed that an xposed plugin, Apps settings reborn, is still has a working version of full screen keyboard fix per app, and dpi changing per app. And jt works in android 11.. It looks good.

Oh, I have this module installed too and didnt know it has this feature! By the way, LSPosed doesnt have the official thread on XDA (the one existing is unofficial, created by a regular user to discuss about it), but they have official Telegram chat and channel, easy to find

Well i installed it, it looks promising. But for full screen keyboard fix, it doesn't looks like app settings reborn sstting is working.. Most other settings work, so it looks like, some do, some doesn't.. Perhaps i must find an xposed plugin especially for this if it still works..
I'll post if i have a solution.

Edit, it works after all. I set to not display keyboard in full screen, to the app i wanted + system ui + SwiftKey keyboard.. And reboot. Something of all this did the trick..

[SOLVED] Is There a Way to Hide Icons without LauncherPro?

Hi guys!
I've been searching around for a simple solution to OC/neat-freak people such as myself...
What has been bothering me for the longest time is the fact that some apps that don't really do anything still add an icon to the app drawer even if it is never needed.
Ex. Document Scanner's Add-On (It is literally just a second icon leading to the same program)
There are also some apps that are needed for other people but I, myself, really do not need to see or access them.
Ex. SuperUser, BusyBox
And there are others that come right out of the box courtesy of Google but I can't uninstall because it will mess things up.
Ex. Google Talk
I eventually found a solution to this using LauncherPro and other launcher alternatives since they all have the feature of hiding whatever application icon you choose...but the thing is:
I don't really like the look of it. I want to stick to the default look of my Samsung Galaxy S (Yes, I like TouchWiz!) It looks a lot nicer, IMHO. And it feels so much smoother also. I also like to organize my app drawer the way I want which is easy to do with TouchWiz.
I know Android ideally uses the homescreens for all the apps you need or use the most and everything else gets hidden in the app drawer..but I like keeping my homescreens tidy with widgets and very few shortcuts only.
So I was wondering...if LauncherPro can implement the feature of app hiding (which really just shows a list of all your apps and let's you check whatever apps you want hidden) then isn't there a mod or a simple app out there or that can be made that simply does this? I don't mind paying a bit.
* After a bit of digging, I came across an old thread on this forum by Irrenhaus about his Advanced Launcher. He apparently customized the launcher that came with Cyanogen (I only skimmed his post, sorry!) where he implemented a lot of great features like folders in the app drawer, app icon hiding and the like. I am very much interested in these features...but again I really don't want to change the look of my Samsung Galaxy S.
* I saw a lot of people posting the TouchWiz Launcher apk for use with other phones... is it possible then to just modify the twlauncher.apk file and implement these other features just like Irrenhaus did? If so, can someone go about doing this for me? I'm willing to pay a reasonable amount. I really do not know how to do this on my own...
* I saw some random dead-end posts in other forums that state that by deleting a line in an app's code or something you can allow the app to install without placing a shortcut. I'm not sure if it works though since there were no replies after that...
Here is the line of code in the manifest file to remove:
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
Is this possible with downloaded apps? Seems illegal to tamper with other people's codes... Or is that just a solution for people who make their own apps... I am only familiar with Java so I don't know how to go about these code modifications in Android.
I'm sorry for the lengthy-looking post! I hope I can get some answers or suggestions soon enough.
Thank you all in advance!
SOLVED!!!
Nvm! Found an app for this!
The app is called "Smart Bar" the dev says it currently doesn't work well for Froyo but I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S running JPM ("official" froyo) right now and the hide app feature works just fine.
Best of all, it's completely free! It also has a ton of interesting/useful features. I have yet to play around with the other features so I can't confirm they all work in JPM.
At first I was afraid that the app would literally just "disable" but not delete the app via the renaming the apk method since when one clicks to hide an app it says "Disabling ____" ...so I thought oh great it hides the app icon and stops it from working too... But I tried it out with the Document Scanner Add-On and it still works fine from the main app.
Hope this information helps people out! Should be very useful for people who want to hide those add-ons and packs that for some reason have their own icons upon installing but just need the main app.
Nice

Have anyone got the solution as i am also looking for a app to hide only icon.I do not want to disable app.I just want to hide some apps.
i also would like to know the answer to this, the method you have added is okay but unfortunately theres no solution to starting the process eg. i have added an option to open superSU, STK etc in settings, that option will not work with it hidden...

Xposed framework & Clock plus Daydream don't get along well

I've been running into Daydream problems in conjuction with Xposed Installer. Specifically with Clock plus DayDream by @martinpelant.
You can find all the information I was able to gather here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54258696&postcount=31
As I think this is more a problem of that app I posted the information there. However, when I uninstalled Xposed Framework (that is to say the patches to the system, not the Installer nor the applications that use Xposed) the problem was also gone. Before that step I also tried unselecting ALL Xposed modules and rebooting, deactivating them, uninstalling, etc, etc. As I said the app began working correctly after uninstalling Xposed Framework and problem arose again upon installing the Framework. I must also mention that this problem only happen when using Clock plus Daydream as I tested with other "daydream" apps and they work properly.
In the aforementioned post you will find catlogs, a video and some other information that might be useful.
PS: I repurposed this post as I first posted the problem here before realizing the culpruit was Clock plus

This looks like a short wakelock to me. As Xposed doesn't use any wakelocks, it seems unlikely that it's the culprit. I obviously can't speak for all the modules, so you should try if it still occurs if you disable them. Or even easier: Just press the uninstall button in Xposed Installer and reboot. If it still occurs, you can be sure that it's neither Xposed nor any module.

I'm really sorry @rovo89. I was in the middle of this post when I was able to find the problem. Somehow it seems I pressed the Post button on the unfinished post. Really sorry about that. The problem was (is) on Clock Plus Daydream. I will repurpose the OP as Xposed might still be somewhat responsible.

Any way to force desktop formatting in Chrome?

Well now that I've got a six inch screen to browse on, I'd like to take advantage of it and disable mobile site views/force desktop view on all sites when using Chrome. Anyone know of any particular method for accomplishing that? The "Request Desktop" checkbox in Chrome itself is unreliable so I was hoping for a root alternative if necessary. Tried this method but it's terribly outdated so I wasn't very surprised when it didn't work.
I haven't tried this yet, but this app looks like it might be worth trying - "Chrome User Agent Switcher". At least the description sounds like it's what you need, plus it looks like it survives reboots in the same UA mode.

Boo. I'm going to pick mine up in a couple of hours (if they actually have one in stock like they say they do). I'll do some testing and let you know if I find something that works.
Chrome User Agent works great. I've been using it for a while. But you do need root.
EDIT: Hmmmm. I see that you are rooted. I haven't tried it on the N6 yet, but perhaps you need Busybox installed for the app to run properly?
Just installed BusyBox and still no change. Do I need to do anything in particular with BusyBox?

I don't believe so. I also can't get it to work. I'm pretty sure it was working in lollipop on my N5 though, so I'm not sure that the problem is necessarily lollipop related. Perhaps it's related to a recent chrome update...I'm not sure.
That apps with for me, stock rooted n6.sweet!
Hmm. After not working at first, this is now working for me. Not sure why. Try it again and make sure you force close chrome after applying the user agent settings switch (and make sure you actually apply the settings switch by hitting the arrow in the top right of the app).

Substratum?

Hey all,
First off, I'm a newbie. Sorry if I offend the order around here, or anything!
So I am a long-time lover of substratum, and was looking forward to theming 9.0 on this Razer phone 2... But I've tried my damnedest since I got it back in early March, and from where I am now, it appears it's hopeless. Anybody gotten Subs working? I'm running mr0, magisk fully updated, trying to apply swift dark. (And yes, the magisk module installed properly for Subs), and I even get no error codes (in fact, the app claims everything's working), but no themes appear under the 'manage' tab. Halp!
Razer Phone 1 & 2 can only use themes signed with the system key thru Razer Theme store. It's coded in framework-res.apk to verify if I remember correctly. Someone might be able to remove the code check and make a install zip for TWRP that can be used with the deodexed ROM here.

Working fix for substratum
found this on another thread and im suprised to not see this anywhere else but anywho, this is the only working way to get substratum on the Razer 2 ive been able to find and its pretty easy to use. https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-smali-patcher-0-7-t3680053 get this, run the .exe, patch for signature verification (if you have any problems try a different charger, make sure you have usb debugging on, and run .exe as admin) then when its done running look for the .zip and run it through twrp/magisk.

Ok so update! Using both swift dark and swift black results in the same 2 issues=
-notifications almost go black, but are instead a light light gray on swift dark (making the white text hard to read) and go dark gray on swift black. I've never used swift black prior to tonight, so maybe I've just never seen how dark swift black does it's notifications, and am thus ignorant! For this issue, I double and triple checked I had both Android system & system ui themed, reboot, enable, reboot. To no avail.
I also noticed with both theme packs that the play store doesn't theme at all, but that when viewing an app's page, the title text is white (and thus invisible).
This is just a heads up for those of us working with this now. I'm gonna let the devs know and see if they have any advice or are able to bugfix. Thanks again guys -- play music is buttery black!
Just to clarify...

So I've been running subs for a little while through both methods, so either works. Both methods produce the same result, but I've found that the ROM has some minor bugs that can be obstructive at their worst. EG, every now and then my taps register as long holds (for example, on my keyboard I'll look up and see a bunch of jumbles of symbols instead of the words I tried to type)
But regardless, both methods fail to get the system themed. They try, but notifications are unreadable, and the theme color of the quick settings panels doesn't change from the Razer green.
tl'dr, I'd stick with the smali patcher method, as the ROM has some quirks that can make it a hassle to use as a daily driver.

Thanks for the response..
Just to followup regarding the smaili method, do I generate the signature for the Substratum install apk or the theme or both. Once the zip is generated then I install using TWRP? Just not really clear what needs the signature and what order things should be installed.

Generate the module zip for your phone. Copy it over and install with Magisk. As for theming, it's seems that the systemui overlay is the issue. Any theme that I install just seems to combine with the systemui one instead of replacing it, causing notifications and certain other areas like parts of setting menus to be unreadable. If we could disable systemui's theming, I think we could get somewhere.

180 and 360 rotation possible with root?

Is it possible to enable 180 and 360 rotation for the whole phone on a stock based rom?
It was possible on the S4 using Wanam Xposed, so you will probably need that if it's made for the S10 line or something similar to it.

Yeah every solution seems to need exposed which Im trying to stay away from since xposed will not pass safetynet anymore from what I understand. I was hoping there was a file edit some where that could do it. Therr used to be a way to do with build.prop edits but seems that doesn't work on newer Android os. I did however find someone who posted and ingenious way that works temporarily, if you open google maps, navigate to anywhere and then exit maps you can rotate any direction, doesn't work for apps with forced orientation though but better than nothing for now.
