Thanks tribbey this work on mines also appreciated a lot.

Does anyone know why this app was removed from the market?
What does it require full internet access for? Paypal donation? I'm a bit chary while installing apps from unknown sources so would appreciate any reassurance
After trying this app I uninstalled it because
1) it keeps requesting su permissions every few seconds and I don't like idea of disabling the notifications in the Superuser app
2) my motivation for turning off buttons back lights was battery saving, but I'm not sure if I will save anything if this app keeps running in the background

^^ MikGinger 3.0 has this function built into the "tweaks", works great.

App for restarting phone

Is there an app which can restart the phone but without rooting the phone..

Why do you need that ? Just press and hold the power button for a few second, the Phone options will pop-up, just choose restart to restart the device.

look at the first app in the list dude. You just might have to actually READ the Apps description. other than that you have to root.

This application does not actually reboot it just refreshes the phone..it's not even close to rebooting I am using this app from par three days it's basic function is to free up the space in RAM..try it out u'll know

Why do you even need to reboot your phone that much?

You could Quick Boot if you wish. Can also reboot straight to recovery and bootloader. Unfortunately I can't link to it as I've only recently joined XDA.

Quick Boot works on rooted phone only. He is asking for reboot app with no root access required.

I dun reboot that much..Just once a day..but I dun want my power button to get depressed because I have to rely on unlocking on the same button..which gets pressed quite a lot of times...
Also if you could suggest me some widgets or apps that can help me to lock my phone..I used extended controls which was not a great experience because when I unlocked the screen remained black till I switched on to some other application ..

I don't think it will harm the proximity sensor, it just that I don't like to see a red light on the proximity sensor light up when using this app as I guess it use more battery...and that's maybe the reason why they have a time-out to kill the app after certain time. Once the app is killed, you still need to press power on. Anyhow, this is my personal opinion only, nothing against the app; I maybe wrong.

Thanks tell me since when are you using this phone??do you find your power button by any chance pressed inside even a little??Also I dun think that it uses much battery as the Statistics posted by the App developer state..it would be great if someone would throw some light on it though..

Since Apr 3rd, two days after the HOX officially launched in my country. Do not really notice that, maybe because I seldom use the power button as my device is rooted, using quick boot for reboot, reboot to bootloader & recovery, swipe to power on and so on.

Why are you even rebooting once a day? It isn't necessary and will solve all of your problems.

Tv off effect

Is it possible to get the tube tv effect when I put my screen to sleep on the stock rom?

??

Its called crt animation and not on stock roms! Im sure in time there will be a custom rom that will contain that soon
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

Try this
There's an app that I used on my TF101. It is a shortcut that locks your screen with a variety of effects:
Screen off and lock
It's free in the Play Store. No root required.

I dont want a custom rom on this phone.

What are you talking about? Did you even try to install the app that I linked to?

Lol

my bad, I meant to reply to tyshemi, not you. I did install that app. It does not work with the power button, and the animation is not as nice..=

The CRT off animation doesn't play well with JB from what I've seen a couple devs say, which is why it isn't even on the custom ROMs, so chances of getting it on a regular phone are slim and none I'd say.

I never said it worked with the power button. It's an icon you can tap; might actually be nicer. But I'm sorry to hear that you don't like it as much!

Thanks for the info. I kind of like the tv static plus crt close.
I have the off button on my screen now. For when I actually remember to use it, vs muscle memory of hitting the physical button.

No problem! Just a word of caution - When I use this in combination with WidgetLocker the unlock doesn't work. I had to turn the screen off with the power button then it worked again. Most likely caused by the way that WidgetLocker is an app and not a system function.

3.5mm Klick Click Button

3.5mm Klick Click Button & USB OTG
Since I almost never use 3.5 port, this additional button nicely fits on my Nexus 5.
To control this little device, need to use KlicK. By using Tasker and Secure Settings I got functional second power button. However, I've no idea how to get exact power button, cause in my case I cannot press one to wake display and press again to turn it off.
It possible to use 1, 2, 3 click action and program them to any installed app.
Also, I got a nice small black USB OTG.
Battery draws just a little bit more by 7 hours sleep I spent 4% and usually for the same without it, drawing is about 3.5 hours per 1%.
Unfortunately, I found that in Skype sound is dispersing while this button is connected.
p.s. BTW, would be great to get the same idea for microusb, cause I almost do not use it too.

It would be a lot harder to get the same functionality over the USB port as it is not hard wired for this kind of things.
For extra buttons I'd recommend you Dimple or something similar.
Have a nice day!

The one you got is the cheap version of real one. Probably will end up with bugs and unsupported app.

My wife owns a xiaomi phone, she is Chinese, and I copied the Mikey app off of it. Then I did some digging and found a English version of the Mikey app at the this site:
http://en.miui.com/thread-18958-1-1.html
Wondering if anyone is willing to test it.....

How exactly did you get this working with the klick app? I have one, but there's no shortcut or tasker option I see on there.

It's very easy, while you made an action in tasker, you just need make an app via tasker, install it and direct those app for klick.

New update of Chinese app "klick" and now Skype as normal without interruption.
so far a nice button,
not sure yet how correctly make a wake up app for in.

no need anymore tricks with tasker.

that's been one of my profiles since the first day
1 click - home (power on)
2 clicks - starts endomondo (i cycle a lot)
3 clicks - starts camera
long click - quick settings

The "available on lock screen" option has a bit of a security issue, if you have a pattern lock and start the camera with the app you're able to view previous pics. Normally they're locked out if you have a pin/pattern lock.
Other than that this thing works great

Just wanted to say was on the Mahdi rom and was getting a google voice to text message so decided to try android L. Klick works much better on L then it did on that rom.
1 - home
2 - camera
long - flashlight
Works well (though the double click you have to time it a bit)

Is there a way to skip tracks for songs?

By long pressing the volume buttons?

I'm interested in this as well. I know there is a button remapper app, but not sure if it will work with skipping tracks. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.homebutton

I tried it a month ago no go.

I think something like Tasker could still work on Oreo

Yes it can be done with the screen off. You need to enable 'Screen Off Actions' in the 'Advance' menu. Scroll to the bottom.

Worked on a P10 with EMUI 8, android 8 Oreo, when nothing else would work. Forced it to see it as AOSP in the settings but maybe not necessary

Smart pocket does a pretty good job. Double/single click instead of long press, but it works.

just flash Ressurection remix and u can do what u want =)
