It doesn't work.

I've the barcode scanner app from zxing already.

When I open the app, the phone changes to landscape mode.

The "bottom" is actually the left side of the phone. The activation has no problem.

however the actual bottom (right side in the app) activation area still doesn't work.

Thanks anyway!

I just switched over to android oreo and I noticed that in certain windows, pie control isn't avaiable, for example in the app rights-management section. Display over other apps setting is enabled. I'm using lmt launcher 2.8.

Can anyone help?
[Android Software Development] agayabag:
Not sure this would help or not, but maybe you can install the lastest beta which is 2.9 beta2. It's just several pages back. Cheers man.
[Android Software Development] ShadowJP88:
Could it be possible to set a time for the pie status info rotation so I could read notifications?
[Android Software Development] MrMarques01:
This is normal. Android prevents other apps from drawing over the screen in certain security relevant parts of the settings.
[Android Software Development] trohn_javolta:
Thx for clarification, actually makes sense. Still a way to bypass that would be nice because as long as pie control doesn't work systemwide, I cannot disable all other buttons.
[Android Software Development] scoobyjenkins:
You can press the back button within settings though, at the top left, then use pie again
[Android Software Development] HidrauliChicken:
some icons not showing

Hey folks,

HTC 10 Android 8.0 leedroid ROM here.

After configuring LMT pie some of the icons don't show up, only "app" label.

Did anyone experience this?
[Android Software Development] damngood98:
What version are you on? Latest is 2.9 beta 2.. Should fix your issues
[Android Software Development] HidrauliChicken:
Right, that helped, just didn't know there was a beta :) thanks.

On that note I found that logcat didn't seem to show any problems regarding the missing icons on version 2.8. [MENTION=1864347]noname81[/MENTION]

How to click with the pie pointer? Lol. I could not figure out. I activate it but can not clickⁿ
[Android Software Development] r.albu:
Are you rooted? That only works on rooted phones. Otherwise it shows up but doesn't do anything.
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
I have no idea what you mean by "pie pointer", but to use pie, you finger-down to display it (actually slide in from the edge) and then slide (holding your finger down) to your selection, and lift your finger on your selected action. Please ignore if that's not what you meant:o
[Android Software Development] mc191:
Yes I am rooted and granted permissions. Accesibility permission is also granted.
[Android Software Development] r.albu:
I'm not rooted now so unfortunately I can´t use that handy feature but, as I remember, you click by moving and releasing the cursor where you want to "click".
[Android Software Development] Mao04:
Lift your finger when the target (circle} is over the object you want to "click".
[Android Software Development] shaqman89:
Please forgive my ignorance, but what are the use cases for the pie pointer?
[Android Software Development] juliusedward:
Single handed operation
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
My phone actually has hardware buttons, but since they tried to make the phone as small as possible (with a 5" screen), using the hardware buttons makes it very easy to drop it. Also, its obviously fixed at 3 HW buttons, my pie has 5 (in the inner circle, let alone the extras on the outer circle). To be clear, pie is all I use, I don't use the gestures of LMT.

Also, pie provides the ability to access functions/apps directly from ANY screen. for eg, one of my pie controls is the menu key, which on a 5" screen is difficult to access at the top of the screen, while I use a swipe from the bottom to show the pie. The phone would of been dropped and almost impossible to use (one handed) without it

NB: On previous phones and ROMs I used a custom navigation bar to do the same thing, so its "familiar" for me, I am not a fan of gestures (which are also already in my ROM anyway, so is pie but its crippled)
[Android Software Development] shaqman89:
I see. I finally got the idea and it seems it could be my next favorite feature :D

I agree, LMT is the best for pie. Initially, I also used it just for the pie, but now I am using it with ISAS.

Anyway, I was asking about pie pointer, which have been answered above, but thanks anyway for it.

While on the topic, are there any plans to expand gestures capability for it to be able to start from any spot in the screen?

In my understanding, currently it is limited only to its hotspot areas.
[Android Software Development] neekless:
You have explained pie, not pie pointer.

In short, pie pointer allows you to click things out of reach (its like having a mouse), making one-handed operation easier on large screens.
[Android Software Development] doctorew:
I've been using pointer awhile. It's like the long claw arm my grandma used to reach the cans and dishes in the cabinets as she grew older and shorter.
[Android Software Development] kalinkazmajami:
I had to reset my phone to factory settings and now LMT crashes when i try to add shortcuts to arbitrary apps. The list of all apps is not even showing and LMT hangs.

Maybe somoene encountered something like this? I have root.
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
:o yep, after yout post I found what pie pointer is and how its different to Pie.:o my bad.

Have you tried:

Clearing data and cache for the app in settings?

uninstalling and re-installing LMT?

I would get a log cat of the crash and post it on www.hastebin.com, or zip it up and attach it here.
[Android Software Development] s7dhansh:
The latest 2.9beta too faces flak from Google Play Protect. Attached the screenshot. It should not be a ROM issue but fyi, I am on Pixel Experience for Oneplus 2. A few days ago it was working fine on AOSiP for the samem device. I am guessing, Google Play updated something on their front. Let me know if I can help with some logs.
[Android Software Development] bclark:
Odd since no issues on Omni on OP5T
[Android Software Development] damngood98:
Switched Roms 2 days ago on my Pixel 2 XL and an suddenly seeing it... Dismissed it twice, haven't seen it since though
[Android Software Development] s7dhansh:
Yes the notification has stopped but somehow it does not auto start on a reboot. I guess play services stop the lmt service.

What am I doing wrong? I have just recent, home and back buttons set up. Keeping simple. Only button that works is home. Back and recents isn't working. Stock Essential PH1 no toy root. Running latest version 2.8.1

Thanks
[Android Software Development] kevin.kvik:
I have a similar problem on several custom rom. In Resurrection Remix and crDroid do not work recent button. In ViperOS do not work LMT Launcher on botton position.
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
It is probably not your issue, but I noticed the same behavior until I enabled it in Accessibility options.I am running Nougat RR
[Android Software Development] RoccoN4:
I have Accessibility on and still not working
[Android Software Development] stormy_gale:
I intermittently get similar issues with 'recents' but have found toggling accessibility off/on cures it. Have you tried this m
[Android Software Development] RoccoN4:
Ok. So I uninstalled and reinstalled. Toggled Accessibility and now recents and back funtions are working. Now my other question is how to get it to work with the bottom on the screen? I disabled the nav buttons via ADB. LMT either works on both left and right but can't get it to work on the bottom. I'm also using X Home Bar and that works on the bottom.
[Android Software Development] EMJI79:
[MENTION=1864347]noname81[/MENTION] Would be great to have an option to make the pie totally invisible which would make it work easily like it was purely gestures
[Android Software Development] GermainZ:
It's already doable, just set all the colors to #00000000.
[Android Software Development] RoccoN4:
Hi. What am I doing wrong? If I get rid of my navbar via ADB, why won't the pie activate on the bottom portion of the screen? I'm sure I had it working once before. Thanks
[Android Software Development] EMJI79:
OK it works, except for the icons which are white.

Thé "last opened app" option for a part of the pie works without root in "gesture control" app so it should be possible on LMT?
[Android Software Development] Wh1t3Rose:
I searched for an answer to this and while a few people did ask this they never got a response.

How do you change the rate of the status info? It goes to fast to actually read it and it actually kind of glitches out.
[Android Software Development] shaggyskunk:
There's also another app that is similar to LMT (not as good in my opinion) that also allows Screen Shots and it does not require Root either - Not even adb commands.
[Android Software Development] r.albu:
Hi,

Don't remember if you can change only that.

But you can stop every status info by sliding your finger out of the pie and stop, without lifting the finger. It's not what you want but give it a go and try it.

Cheers
[Android Software Development] Wh1t3Rose:
That does work Thank you. I'm back on Android after taking a break for a couple years and I do remember the app having this option. Not sure why he took it out.
[Android Software Development] BostonDan:
Hi all,

I updated LMT to the latest beta and while the navigation buttons work fine, LMT won't launch any apps. I see the app on the pie (e.g. chrome) but when I press it, nothing happens. I am on Oreo 8.1 using Resurrection Remix ROM.

I checked permissions and security settings but nothing seems to be out of place. LMT has root access through Magisk.

Anybody else have this issue? Any ideas?

Cheers,

B.D.
[Android Software Development] NBruderman:
Works fine for me, make sure the app has root permissions. I had this problem once after re-flashing my rom, because the root permission was gone. After fixing that, everything went back to normal
[Android Software Development] BostonDan:
Thanks NBruderman. I didn't figure out what caused this, but I did regain this capability. I had dirty flashed the beta over LMT v2.8, and I think this caused the problem because I had apps already defined to launch with LMT in the Pie.

I wiped the apps from LMT Pie, and reboot before re-adding the apps. All is good now.

Cheers,

B.D.

I'm having an issue where my media volume randomly goes to full volume. I did some quick searching and it seems that people have run into this issue when they are using some type of navigation key replacement or app. I'm wondering if anyone has run across the same issue and if it is related to LMT.

I am on the latest beta of LMT on stock Pixel 2 XL.

If anybody has a solution or can point me in the right direction (if it is not LMT related) it would be much appreciated.

OMG!!! Just installed this for my Galaxy S8 Plus and i cannot contain my excitement!!! The ISAS gestures work flawlessly, and even better than some free/paid apps on the Play Store. Thanks for this guys, always hated the S series navbar, was too big and blocked quite a bit of the bottom view...
[Android Software Development] flame360:
Hey guys!

I've been using LMT for the past couple of years across several devices and it has always worked flawless, excellent app by the way!

But recently in the last 3 days, I have this strange issue, where after a reboot, LMT can launch once an app, after that I'm unable to use the app shortcuts to launch apps... Very weird, probably an Xposed module got updated and is causing this, never the less, I was curious to see if someone else is experiencing this?

Thanks a lot for your help!

Hey, I've been using LMT since it came out, every time I own a new device, LMT is a MUST!!!

Quick question: I installed LMT on my new device (S9+), but every time I "cast" it, the menu appears but the animation is very choppy.

This happened me once a while ago on another device, but I forgot how I fixed it, can anyone please help me here???

Awesome app!!!

You will need root for those buttons to work properly. If you're concerned about passing safetynet check, use Magisk for systemless root.

[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
A logcat has the history since the boot, if it is not manually cleared or cleared explicitly by some background app; ie it should be "long enough". You also have last_kmsg as well, which survives a reboot; and actually, now that I think of it, I don't think it can be manually cleared, but have seen it empty, obviously due to some bug.

did you activate LMT in the accessibility settings?
[Android Software Development] pizza_pablo:
I may have forgotten that step!

I think I looked for such a setting, before playing with the app, while reading about it.

I'll take a look. Thanks!

ETA, yup! That did it!

I reckon it helps to recall all instructions. :o

Now to figure out how to make the long press work properly.

I've used this APK for years on many different phones and never had issues. But on my OnePlus 6 it's really laggy when opening apps.

Could it be that it's because it's the first time I run it without root?
[Android Software Development] KnifeFed:
It works fine on my unrooted OP6.
[Android Software Development] tyArtifacts:

[Android Software Development] Lodberg:

[Android Software Development] KnifeFed:
Yeah, there's no difference for me.
[Android Software Development] phillibl:
It worked fine for me to before I rooted.
[Android Software Development] Lodberg:
I've done a bit of testing. If I end up at the home screen using the "home" button in LMT or the normal one at the bottom I can't open an app with LMT whiteout ~3 seconds of lag if I do it straight away.

If I wait approximately 3 seconds before I open an app after hitting home screen it open instantly.

If I end up at the home screen using the back button I can launch an app instantly.

It's really strange!
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
Have you checked if your launcher is hogging resources for 3 seconds when its given focus? It may be your launcher grabbing system resources when activated, that is the causal issue. Just a thought.
[Android Software Development] Lodberg:
I tried some different launchers but with the same result. Then I tried to monitor the CPU but without luck as my OnePlus 6 isn't rooted yet.

But I've just found a workaround using Nova launcher. Instead of configuring a normal home button in LMT I chose "shortcut" - "nova action" - "default page"

Now I don't get the lag...finallly ?
