Pros: It is easy to use compared to 2nd way.

2. Download and install Quick Shortcut Maker from PlayStore. Open it and under Activity tab search for AppLock. Under this search for and tap on activity ending with 'AppLockSettingsActivity'.

[APP] S-Pen Help and Buddy Page for Samsung Based ROMs

Like many people here I do not like the stock TouchWiz Launcher which we get, but when we change to another launcher like Nova etc. we lose the Page-buddy feature and hence have to launch the S-Note app every time we remove our SPen. So I thought of making an app which would launch the S-Note app when we remove our SPen.
Features:
-Launches the S-Note app (default) or the one chosen by you. (can be disabled)
-Shows a Notification (the message it displays can be whatever you like) in the bar for as long as the SPen is detached. (can be disabled)
-Launched app is closed when SPen is inserted.
-During a call the auto launch is disabled so that it does not conflict with S-Memo auto-launch.
-Can be used by Tasker do detect the SPen detachment/insertion.
-Can be updated directly from the Phone.
-QuickBar with desired applications in Notification Bar.
-The entire app can also be disabled.
-Shows a Notification (the message it displays can be whatever you like) in the bar whenever the Headset is plugged in. (can be disabled)
-QuickBar can also be setup for the Headset.
-Can select custom insert/detach sounds.
Future Plans:
-Be able to choose which app we want to launch. (Done)
-Show a notification in the notification bar for as long as the Pen is Detached like the TW launcher. (Done)
-Make app launch on its own without the need to start it. (Done)
-Add auto-update feature. (Done)
-Integrate as a Tasker Plugin. (Done)
-Upload to Play Store (Done)
-Enable quickbar in Notifications like TW launcher. (Done)
-Implement Headset Controls. (Done)
-Launch different apps when SPen is detached based on currently running app.
-Implement blacklist for auto-launch.
-Add option to disable closing the opened app.

Thank you very much
I was looking for something like this for when I'm using AOKP roms.
I'm a big fan of the AOKP stuff yet i don't like to lose the features that come stock

Swipe up from bottom

Hi
When you swipe up from the bottom of the screen you get that semi-circle which provides a shortcut to Google. Is there anyway of configuring that so it provides quicker access to a different application? I've looked through the settings but couldn't see anything.

The only way is for you to use G3 Tweakbox but you'll need to first root your device and install Xposed framework.
Better Solution if You Don't Want to Root
Try Home Launcher in the Google Play Store. It replace the Google Icon with a Rocket and it is easy to add / remove apps. You can make the list change appearances for easy viewing. I like it maybe you will too!

Fringed print app lock for p8000

Guys do you know any finger print app lock for p8000??
Also looking for it. I hope It'll come in the next main update !
Yah ...hoping so
Sent from my Auxus PRIME
isn't there any app for fingerprint apps locking ?
stock
hey can you just send stock rom of your auxus prime
1. App Locker - I'm using this app, the best. I strongly recommend you this app.
App Locker is the first app that you can try on your device. It’s a very basic app with a simple interface.
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.martianmode.applock&hl=en
apk: http://choilieng.com/apk-on-pc/com.martianmode.applock.apk
2. FingerSecurity
The second app that you can try is FingerSecurity and the initial setup is similar to App Locker. You will have to check is the app is compatible with the device and grant it Accessibility Access which is mandatory for such apps to function. Having done that, you are free to load the app lock list and enable toggle switch to lock the particular app.
No ads - that sounds good
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rickclephas.fingersecurity&hl=en
apk: http://choilieng.com/apk-on-pc/com.rickclephas.fingersecurity.apk
3. CM App Lock - Fingerprint Unlock
CM App Lock Fingerprint Unlock is the third and the most feature rich fingerprint app locker that you can install on your Android, the app has good ratings and works good, so there is no harm in trying it out. CM App Lock Fingerprint initial configuration is very similar and just like any other app, you will have to lock the apps from a list. The option to lock Bluetooth and Wi-Fi state is also an added feature.
The features that are worth mentioning about the app is that you can download several lock screen themes for free and give your lock screen a new color every day. Apart from that, you get the option to reset the password using the Google account you have on the Android. The app also gives you the option to snap a picture from the front camera if it detects multiple failed attempts to unlock the app (Intruder selfie) .I installed CM cleaner and this feature included but i rarely use this app. Anw, another good app to try :good:
Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cms.lock&hl=en
apk: http://choilieng.com/apk-on-pc/cms.lock.apk
Have fun.

Smart Bulletin

Hey all, I have a bit of a conundrum. Today I was digging through some hidden activities with activity manager, and I noticed that several functions from the g4 and g5 are found in the settings activities (for example, the smart cover, notification LEDs, and a few others). Activating most of them provide no effect, as I'm assuming they were disabled from use. However, looking in the LG home 4.0, I saw an activity called smart bulletin. And for those who don't know, it's the equivalent of the Google now page for LG apps. However, I cannot access any of the features, but it does appear on the home screen. Is there a method for enabling the use of this( perhaps through all sideloading or other means)? Also, as far as some of these hidden features go, is there any way to activate those? I have the k425 on 7.0 nougat.

Download Nova launcher and add an activities widget, when the screen to select activity appears, expand the selections for homescreen and long press on smart bulletin, when it's launched, activate it and then you can close Nova launcher. You don't have to select Nova as default homescreen though.

I didn't have to use nice to activate it; as a I mentioned earlier, I use activity launcher instead. It's activated, and it appears, but there's no options for it. It's as though LG simply removed the apps to make the feature work, and didn't fully remove this feature

Question Gripes with XIaomi's software limitations, anyone can help?

Hi guys,
I bought a Xiaomi 13 Pro recently for battery life and camera and I'm certainly happy with it! However, coming from an AOSP-ish experience I can't help but feeling very frustrated with the UI/UX of MIUI so far, setting up my new phone, especially:
1. Not being able to use full-frame gestures on third party launchers
2. The app manager cleaning my widget apps when I clean apps forcing them to close and not refresh widgets before I reload the app + reload the widget
3. Having to set up manually lockscreen notifications for every sub category of notifications within each and every app - by default, apps will not show lockscreen notifications and when the general toggle within the notification menu is switched on, I have to go into each notification subcategory to re-confirm my setting of actually having this notification show on the lockscreen in a secondary toggle - is there any way ALL can be selected to show on lockscreen = ON by default?
4. Lockscreen notifications disappearing when I unlock the screen once
5. Some apps just not working at all, like Tiktok (I'll write a different post on it)
6. Unnecessary bloatware I don't need
If you have any workarounds for any of these issues or know how to get something as close as AOSP as possible that would be very much appreciated, as much as I love the hardware of this phone, the software is difficult to manage and I don't want to end up selling the phone!
Thank you so much
1/This is a Xiaomi decision.
2/Try to put the apps concerned in automatic start and no restriction on the battery saver.

Settings/notification and control center/notification effect.
Settings/notification and control center/lock screen/Format.
If you use AOD, check that notification is activated on the theme.
5/Long press on the app icon/information/notifications/grant the necessary permissions (all except, refuse or resend empty messages).

***For this, notifications are indeed activated IN GENERAL for lockscreen, but subcategories are deactivated by default, essentially I have to do twice the activation for lockscreen notifications
5/Long press on the app icon/information/notifications/grant the necessary permissions (all except, refuse or resend empty messages).
***For this it's actually the app that can't connect to the internet, not the notifications. Nothing seems to be unlocking like if an invisible firewall was blocking the app.

Possible,Try: settings/connection share/DNS
You won't have this problem with a Xiaomi Eu rom.
