[Q] S-Cover with Lollipop

I'm enjoying Lollipop on my S4 Mini, but I have a problem..
With Lollipop, you can't customize the lock screen clock, right?
I haven't found a solution, because I would like to put the clock more up, so it shows on my S-Cover display.
So I tried to install other Lock screens, but the problem I have then is that the screen doesn't show if I press the power button, while the cover is closed. That only works with the Lollipop lock screen.
So how can I solve this? Does anybody know a solution?
Either can you customize the clock on Lollipop lock screen?
Or can you enable that the screen shows when I press the power button while I'm on another lock screen?

hi !
you can try with this app => https://github.com/durka/hallmonitor ,maybe it can work ,i don't know ...
(download : https://github.com/durka/HallMonitor/blob/0.4.1/bin/HallMonitor-debug.apk?raw=true , put it on ex-SD and on a file explorer ,install it with "unknown source" enabled on security parameters )

I have tried Hallmonitor, but it made my screen go black after a phone call. I had to restart the phone to be able to use it again, so I uninstalled it. I also tried S-View Lite from Google Play, but it's the same problem there like with all the other lockscreens from Google Play, I can't put the screen on with power button if the cover is closed. That only works with Lollipop default lockscreen.

I don't think it is as easy as just getting an app since the s-view cover uses an sensor and the holo sensor to activate it. I guess we will have to wait till some developers start in that or Samsung releases an SDK or even better Lolipop Update

Hall sensor works in cm11 and 12 what is missing is the sview lockscreen

State of HallMonitor development
Development of HallMonitor seems to have stopped since version 0.4.2 (latest commit of the author "durka" is from 22 Jul 2014). This version doesn't support CM12(.1) (see issue 52 on durka's GitHub page).
The suggested installation of the "MagnetOff" Xposed module is not a very useful workaround since you can't use the hall sensor (magnet sensor) anymore and would have to fall back on the proximity sensor (which is a pain in the a**).
The GitHub user "manusfreedom" has added several features and took development up to his version 2.0.2 beta (but his last commit is quite old too, from 21 Sep 2014). Has anyone tested manusfreedoms fork on CM12(.1)? Or does anyone know about a revival of HallMonitor's development? Would be so awesome to have this for CM12.1 ... :cyclops:

To customize the clock position, try this.
You need Xposed for this. -->> http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/app-lock-screen-clock-mods-t3069272/post59810253
Works perfectly!

[Q] Lockscreen (Knockcode) Swipe Camera disappeared (D855 v20h)

Hi all,
I've had 3 or 4 OTA updates on my LGG3 since I got it last year, one of the ones around 20h made the swipe to camera icon disappear. The one in the bottom right...
How do I get it back?
Also, how do I change volume down to launch a third party camera (XCam LG)

This is possibly due to the change in Android Lollipop's lock screen settings. If you see stock ROMs or vanilla Nexus, there isn't any lock screen widgets anymore either.
However, I've inspected the ROM packaging (at least for Cloudy's ROM), this code is still there, it just doesn't show up for some reason.
I'll let some other pro answer this...
Solution? Wait for v30-base from G4's LG UX 4.0 software, if not you can download third-party lock screen apps (i.e. WidgetLocker or HiLocker)

Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm having the same issue.

I installed zui locker, played around with it's camera settings then uninstalled it. Funny the camera widget appeared and remained in the stock lockscreen.

alternative app to the ASUS Cover app for cynogenmod 13

the cover:
https: //www .asus.com/media/global/products/AW7BzTzWWiUW8zEN/P_setting_fff_1_90_end_500. png
I've checked the other 5 forum requests that are asking for ports of the Asus Cover app for CM and it seems that it either can't be done or its just not going to happen. I'm curious if there is another option to use my asus cover with another app that allows usage of a view window in CM 13. The features I liked most for the orig app were the flashlight, music control and a clock. I always used 3rd party apps for sms and email so the orig app never properly grabbed information from these 3rd party notifications rendering the windowed notification display to be useless. Buuuuut if there WAS an app in existence that had these features in a window that one could choose the shape and size to match that of the window on my cover, I'd deff want to know what that is.
Side Note:
I just managed to get CM 13 installed on the senfone 2 with all regular features working and xposed and all kinds of other cool ****, ALL DUE TO THE AMAZING EFFORTS of the great people of this forum. Thanks people. I hated the ZENUI and bloatware this phone came with. You all made my day.:good:

Once MM sources are released, the cm13 devs may be able to get asus flip cover working.

CM 13 vs Smart Cover and NFC

Hi there,
I have problem with smart cover for my s4 mini. I just switched from stock rom to CM 13. It's running and looks great, but i cant find a solution to bring back smart cover. It was awesome feature, but looks like CM13 is not supporting it anymore by itself. I tried to find an app on google store - there was something like S-View, but it didnt work and the rest of them is for turn on/off screen. The thing is cover IS turning screen on/off, but there is no special screen with time, notification, music info.
Also - i can't find NFC icon anyware. Is it still working?

You can use SlimKat rom. It has smart cover support

Once you go Android 6, you cant go back.
So - NFC is not supported at all, i hope it will be fixed in upcoming releases. I didn't test nightly build (cuz i just started with android), so can you tell me if this is upcoming feature?
And about that smart cover. I noticed that apps i was talking about earlier - S-View for example - work with p-sensor, no magnetic sensor. It's kinda problem.
You know - power button can turn on screen with case closed ONLY with system lock screen, but... clock is just too low ;_; Any lockscreen from market just doesnt react to power button when case i closed. Is there any way to way to (restore from stock rom for example) and change system's lock screen? Or change the position of clock with some magic tricks?

Idk much about it but modder can help you

Actually at this point i don't know if even modder can help me I think it's impossible to write an app that will work 'above' default lockscreen. Also only this one works properly with magnet sensor - any other custom lockscreen won't turn on the screen with button, when case is closed.
I found a solution in xposed framework - i just moved clock in default screen to the height of window in case. It's doing its job. I also adjusted the dark overlay, so it looks almost like S-View - ofc without picking calls and notifications number (tho if there is any notification the clock is slightly higher - coinsider it as bug or feature ).
Here is a snapshot of my current lockscreen: i.imgur.com/RMhAvYf.png
The better solution can come from widget that will show clock, date, notifications, maybe even give possibility to pick up calls. It can be done by another xposed apk, that let you add widgets to your default lockscreen.

Smart flip case - Is it there?

Hello.
In the settings I see option to enable flip cover smart action. To unlock when you open the case and sleep when you close.
So, which flip cover can work? Anything from the Indian sites?
Thanks

Ok. Does it work though for custom ROMs?
And only pink is available

As I know

Thanks. I already have the case. It's working fine with stock ZUI ROM. I recently switched to a custom ROM. I wanted to know if there is an app which can do the same clock when the cover is flipped close
