Hello...
Two Questions Come To Mind...
1) Are you simply trying to deny access to a person or persons of the Application in question ?
2) Are you trying to hide something nefarious... that your Wife / Girlfriend (Boyfriend) / Kids can't see due to embarassment ?
If your choice is: *Number 1* then you can do it by going to: Settings / Security & Privacy/ App Lock.. Just chose your code.
If your choice is: *Number 2* Then................. You need to..eh... search elsewhere (3rd Party Software).. :angel:

P.S.
Keep Your Device Stock!
Rooting at this stage of the game is a waste of time... the updates you are about to receive far outweigh what you can do with root.. even if it gives you access to something that can gesture hide your app.
And there are no easy methods to return to stock for the foreseeable future..

Try the pinch out gesture on the home screen and you will get a vault like pop up where you can add any app to hide it. There is no password protection though.

Launch any app with the screen off gestures

I have made a mod for the oneplus one. And since i think these devices have much in common I'm curious if the mod works on the find7 as well.
Is there anyone who wants to try it?

Anyone tried it?
@Thomson2412:
First of all - if anybody with Find 7 is to flash this, he will probably have a custom ROM and it does not have to be CM.
Your zip is obviously for CM ROM. I am using OmniROM with Android 7.1 at the moment.
I flashed it and found out it is not working at all. Altought, it does add the options to settings panel.
Setting any option does not do anything and checking Haptic feedback for any action causes crash.
---
When I flashed the Omni version you have in your original thread (after I removed the OnePlus related checks) the settings options were not there at all - it is in Settings - Device Features.
1. Setting app for Camera gesture works.
2. Clicking on setting vibrator strength causes crash.
And I might be wrong, but it seems that flashing that zip messed up my "menu button one-click".
I do not get any menu popups anymore. Even when I put the original version back..
@Thomson2412 hi I find it's nice feature since I have used this kind of feature when I had oppo f1... Now I am using zuk z1 a msm8974/sd801 device... Can you help me to port it for my device.? Thanks in advanced..

I can't add gestures to a rom that doesn't have them by default because that would require a kernel change and I'm not capable (yet) to implement "new" gestures. Currently I don't have the time nor interest in learning how to change a kernel. So if your device doesn't have gestures I'm afraid I cant be of any help. I only alter what gestures do not add them or create custom ones.
I hope this answers your question, if not feel free to ask some more

If you are talking those off screen gesture features which comes in OPPO phones mostly (like draw C to open camera or draw M to open music app ) then these kind of features "by default" we dont have in any stock or custom rom But
if Double to tap wake screen (D2W) feature is enough to work your mod on my device then yes we do have this thing in all ROMs by default(kernel enabled )....,,

Battery status of Bluetooth device

Hi guys,
I would like to know if there's a possibility to display the battery status of a connected Bluetooth device on the Oneplus 3? Natively or via a third party app? Ideally for me, it should work on the stock ROM but if necessary I would flash a custom one if it would only be possible that way.
Thanks in advance :good:

Have not used it personally though.

Thanks for the suggestion but it doesn't seem to work with my specific pair of headphones :/ If that means that they don't send battery information to the phone I probably can't get it to work with any solution.

Sorry to hear that.
FWIW after suggesting the app to you, I did try it out. It seemed to work with my pair of blue tooth headphones during the limited time I used it..
Going by the comments about the app in the play store, it looks like the usage is limited based on the manufacturer of the blue tooth device....
Just to close this topic: This feature was released in Open Beta 19 and for me it works great!
how to enable that??? by default its not showing when connected......... im on latest beta

How do you activate it? I have a watch connected and it's not showing anything
I didn't have to activate it. For me it just worked. Your Bluetooth device still has to support sending its battery information to the phone. In this months Open Beta update there were some fixes for this feature. Maybe it works for you now?
Edit: grammar

Open App/Unlock Phone with Fingerprint Scanner

Hi everyone,
Anyone know if you can set different fingerprints to open different apps/call a contact etc. from the lock screen? This was a feature on the Honor 5x (I'm not sure about 6x). You could set up to 5 different fingerprints, and I would set each one to open a different app from the lock screen. I've been looking for it on my phone Huawei Mate SE, but can't find it. Thanks.

That looks interesting and it's the first time I'm hearing it .I'm it's not present on current EMUI 5.1 or EMUI 8.0 for Honor 7x not sure about that SE though .I would like to know if it's possible to implement that feature in any way.

Hmm. Well if it's not present on EMUI 5.1 for Honor 7x, then it's probably not present on Mate SE either. It's running the same thing. Strange that it wouldn't be included... Also, it doesn't seem you can use the fingerprint scanner to take you to the home screen either, which is a feature that was on the Honor 5x as well.

It isn't an in built option but you can make it work using external apps like Finger Print Gestures Pro ( available on Playstore) it also has the feature to open apps for a particular gesture like double tap , swipe down fast etc., but I couldn't find any possiblity that allows us to use a particular registered fingerprint for opening an app like Touchid assignment on iPhone.

Does Dual apps usage enabled on LG G7?

Hi
I'm planning to pick this phone soon. However I use two WhatsApp accounts on my current phone Honor 8. Wanted to know if G7 supports dual apps? Can someone please confirm (if possible with screenshots)?
Even if not there. You can use parallel apps right

Read somewhere on this forum that even parallel space is not working on LG g7 for some reason. Also native support is always good to have than make it work thru a third party app.
Hence the query..
What you can do is create two accounts on the phone and use it that way

Btw i checked and can confirm postively that LG G7 despite having so many tweaks in its settings doesn't support dual apps..even parallel space crashes...

Hii Broo, sorry maybe its a little late, but right now icm using an app call island, it owrk on my g7plus u can download on playstore here is the link :
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oasisfeng.island
hope this will help u.
On pie u can do this
It's not natively enabled on Oreo, but it is included in pie.
But you can use apps like Island, create dual apps, which works really well. I have been using Island for so many months for dual WhatsApp accounts. Works like a charm
Just upgrade to pie.. No nead for any apps or hacks..

Does the UI still limit the amount of apps you can autostart? And you probably still have to log in to a vivo account to change launcher too?

i've logged-in to Vivo Account but for curiosity and not for other things. Still don't tried to change launcher because the stock here is pretty perfect and customizable .
I can receive notifications from all apps here and never had locked them in multitasking. Only need to grant all authorizations under settings

That's good to know about notifications, I just hate not having a app drawer lol
Thing that i don't like is that Google Pay it seems to not be supported.
I have an error when i try to finalize the registration. So no contactless options out there.
Maybe depends from Google License missed here ?

Ive never bought anything from Giztop before. Do you recommend? Also, do they open up the phones to inspect them? I know you said it was the Chinese version and it didnt come with playstore, so I assume it was preopened. I prefer that my phones arent opened by someone else.
