yes

I thought i was smart enough, i got the Moto Action latest apk, the latest update (March 2017) is dedicated for Moto G5 and includes the One Nav Button. Well problem is you cant update the moto action via google play because it says it is running the latest version. So i took the apk from another source. Turned out the installation failed.
Wish there was a way to bypass this.

https://forums.lenovo.com/t5/Moto-Z-Play/Moto-z-play-fingerprint-gestures/m-p/3615682#M2908 " There are no plans of adding this feature in the next update. If our customers are not happy with what the phone's native feature, there is Play store where you can download third party apps which suit your style and customization."

Getting rid of the nav-bar is one of the main reasons I'm planning to root my Moto Z Play. Too bad the one button-feature doesn't work there. I'd rather keep the phone locked (warranty) and on stock Android.

I use this.

sounds good, but the navbar is still visible so thats only 50% of the "one button navigation" thing
any ideas for hiding the navbar without root?

This app is an ugly workaround and broke the first thing I tested it with: When its running, long presses aren't working any more in Nova Launcher.
I really hope some dev will be able to migrate the Moto Action-app that includes the One Button-feature to Moto Z without the need of root.

Friend jeromejeremytay, could you facilitate the apk? I would appreciate

*push* any update?

I can work on that latest apk and make it work on Moto devices(Especially on Z Play).
Please provide me that apk by uploading in drive or in any other cloud storage.

Hi here is the link
https://m.downloadatoz.com/moto-actions/com.motorola.actions/moto-actions,v2.00.14.html
Yes you have to install that apk first in order to get the Moto Action within that app.

I think We have to uninstall the moto actions app of our device and then install this..

The problem with this apk is it will not pass installing stage. Not parsing error.

If you are on Marshmallow with Xposed but if you're in Nougat can't do nothing or install Lineage OS and activate the Expanded Desktop feature.

I use this app. I assigned navigation keys to different swipe edge locations. You can customize settings such as edge width or swipe distance under edge preference. Use immersive mode to get rid of the navbar.
This app does not work perfectly on a non-rooted device as keyboard doesn't function well in immersive mode, but it has been working fine since I rooted my phone. I noticed that key popups that I type appear on weird locations though, so I just disabled that option.

Bluetooth trusted thingys and Skip for Moto X

This looks interesting. I have also seen a small Bluetooth device for your keys that works as a trusted connection to keep your phone unlocked which would be a better solution. Also using a Pebble watch or the like would work too.
Skip for Moto X

Trusted Bluetooth devices: A must-have for every smartphone going forward
http://www.androidcentral.com/trusted-bluetooth-devices-must-have-every-smartphone-going-forward
As far as I know, the Ultra/Mini/Maxx cannot do NFC unlock like the Moto X can, so those Skip tags won't help with an Ultra/Mini/Maxx. However, I have a Pebble watch, and, as a trusted BT device, it's great.
The last update put Motorola Skip Setup on my Maxx, so maybe it will work soon. Also, if you have the Xposed framework installed, you can install the NFC LockscreenOff Enabler module and use a NFC sticker/keychain to unlock your phone. While you are at it, get the GravityBox module as well. It has some awesome options to customize your phone.

One thing to note is that the Skip app is installed though I cannot see anything available to get to the settings like you can on the Moto X...

If you buy the skip and touch it to the back, it suppose to start the setup. I had to watch about 5 YouTube videos to find that out.

Moto Camera 6.0.43.10 APK Request

Hi Guys,
I don't suppose anyone could post the APK from the Moto Camera version 6.0.43.10 ?
I ported the last version supplied in this section of the forum to the moto x style and would like to try and do the same again.
Thanks to anybody that can help.

Thanks but that's the apk for com.motorola.camera and is version 4.0.7.5
I'm looking for com.motorola.cameraone which is a more up-to-date app for the moto g4 and z range of phones but it can also be ported to work on older last years range of moto phones.
Aaa, ok. Then this is right.

Photo storage location
I'm unable to disable the shutter sound, and also unable to change the photo storage location in my Moto G4 plus. I flashed cypheros 3.1.1 cheesecake, and there was no native camera app included in the ROM. I had to install this camera app, and I think the phone now treats this like any other user installed app, and doesn't allow me to change the storage location. What do I do?

[APK] Moto Display from Moto X4

Hey guys,
I've been digging through the Moto apps from the X4 to see how much is compatible with my Z, and to my surprise the Moto Display APK works perfectly and upgrade the Z's to that of the Z2 series, complete with the option to reply without unlocking the screen. No root needed, just install like any other APK. Thought I'd share. Enjoy! :good:
Where did you find the Moto x4 apks? Also thanks for the info!

On a Moto X4.
I extracted everything that looked useful/interesting, have had limited success with most of the rest though - was really hoping to find a way to enable Night Display without root as it's the only feature of the current gen I'm sorely missing on my Z. A number of other apps install but don't work, like the Moto app (which demands it be uninstalled when launched) and the updated Voice APK which appears to work and completes enrollment yet doesn't respond to the ShowMe commands.
Lol makes sense ?, well hopefully you can find some more interest stuff that will work.
If your able to upload what you've extracted I'd love to take a look at some.of the apps.
Thanks

They both don't install on MM. Probably are Nougat+ only apks...
how to uninstall them?
Disabling the apps will uninstall them, then just enable again.

Moto display works on Moto X Style with nougat update, can't seem to download Moto action apk
Unable to install moto actions, "error while parsing the package"
The Moto display APK works on my g5+ but the other APK refuses to parse. The new Display APK does nothing but change the appearance slightly but its pretty neat.
works fine on my z play with nougat, thank you!
The Moto display works on the Moto G4 plus, updating it to the new look, the actions is not compatible tho
Works perfectly on my Moto Z Play with Nougat 7.1.1.
Thank you!
Looking forward to see if there's anything else you can come up with!
now the real question is, how to revert back if it suddenly stopped working? (it still works fine for me)

You can disable the app and then re-enable it. Since android treats this APK as an update it should revert it.

Really? I just do the twist motion to switch. That's still available to do luckily for me.
They removed the grid button from the quick toggles but would've been nice if they let you customize it. A portrait mode quick toggle would save me a tap.

No dumb questions!
To be honest, I'm not 100% sure. I'm pretty confident that you can as its still an official verison.
Come to think about it I'm sure I've also updated an app manually like this and then updated it on its next release (I think I did this with android wear).
I noticed the "subscribe to pushbullet updates" on apk mirror so did that for the Google camera. That way can get the update a little faster

Sure. I did the same thing with the phone apk a while back when it was updated to 16.0. Sometimes it just takes google a little longer to catch up with their own apps ??
So they replaced a really good feature (double tap to zoom) with double tap to switch cameras? I hope it doesn't do that during a recording.
Edit: So I have camera version 5.2 and it's the same as before.
They have improved noise levels in the photos recently, I liked that
Edit Edit : There's tons of new settings yay
Thanks google

Oh, No problem, you can choose if you want to zoom or switch camera! Do not worry
I always download APK updates whenever I can just cause I'm impatient. Android Police is quick on getting Google updates post with APK links. And yes, you can get regular updates through the Google Play Store still.
I would actually have liked the double tap to switch cameras with the video recording as I see iPhone Instagram stories doing it. It's cool to film something then show your reaction.

Gestures are slightly different with Task Changer running but they all work fine for me. See the images attached for some help. The arrows show the gestures used to launch the different actions.
