Definitely not playing nicely with Android Phone dp3

Android initially blocked the installation. Had to allow it.

Then, apps and the pointer wouldn't register. Just key buttons (home, back, resents).

Uninstalled. Need to see how I can reinstall to get some logs

What method is everyone using to hide the default navbar? I'm running a custom ROM just to do that because I couldn't find a stable way to do it on a stock ROM (immersive mode, build.prop edits, etc...). I'd love to go back to stock, but LMT pie controls are a must have...
[Android Software Development] doctorew:
ADB

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=*
[Android Software Development] OSheden:
I don't enable navbar with my custom rom but Navigation Gesture has an option to hide it: https://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/official-xda-navigation-gestures-iphone-t3792361
[Android Software Development] GermainZ:
This may be a better solution, as not excluding the Google app causes issues with the lockscreen freezing for a few seconds on unlock:

adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.navigation=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

It's what I use.
[Android Software Development] EMJI79:
Try using Xda iPhone X navigation gestures app to get rid of the nav bar and then use LMT.
[Android Software Development] xawen:
Thanks for the suggestions everyone.

Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but I've tried both of these. The problem I had with both was that the bottom edge of the screen wouldn't work for pie controls. With immersive mode, the nav bar shows up when you swipe up. With Navigation Gestures, it just doesn't work.

Is anyone using either of these to hide the navbar and using the bottom edge for pie?
[Android Software Development] Nevermindthelabel:
I use the hide navigation bar magisk module, works great on my Marlin and could easily be re-enabled if something breaks
[Android Software Development] noname81:
The method with permanent immersive mode works quite good for pie on the sides but won't work for bottom pie, since the navbar shows up on swipe as mentioned. FYI: This is also what LMT does when you use its fullscreen toggle action. So you don't need adb or other apps for it.

Navigation gestures uses as far as I know the WindowManager overscan feature to just move the navbar out of the screen. You could now make LMT's pie trigger area a lot bigger so it will work from the bottom in this setup again.

If your Rom has a navbar hide feature or via Magisk or Xposed module you could permanently remove the navbar.
[Android Software Development] xawen:
Using the overscan method with a large trigger area is a good idea. The only problem with that is that the side triggers would be too big. It would probably need to be somewhere around 150-170. Any way it would be possible to have separate settings for the bottom and side trigger areas?

That would actually solve this issue for a lot of devices without needing to use some of the messier methods. The overscan commands are really easy to use through Nav Gestures, ADB or even Tasker. They also seem to work on just about every device.
[Android Software Development] Ztones:
I just installed Oreo (resurrection remix) and I sudden my can't set apps as shortcuts to pie. It just says "app" (literally). In settings I click on set app, clock on the app but nothing... Doesn't change.

I did use mybackup pro to restore settings,something I always used to do successfully. It did restore some of the settings like color, size,position and couple of app shortcuts do work, but not most.

Thanks

Update: the shortcuts do triggered the app, they're just not displaying the icons .
[Android Software Development] noname81:
There is is beta in the thread some pages back which fixes the icons. I never released the beta on the OP. I should do it soon since more and more people use Oreo now. :) I should also fix LMT on Android P soon. :D

"Last active app" has no animation, any idea why?

Also is there a "key" code that does the same thing?
[Android Software Development] DiamondJohn:
Look here for a list of keycodes: https://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/KeyEvent#KEYCODE_APP_SWITCH

The only thing that differs between our Info-tabs is that I have "ExternalStorageWrite: true", but I can't see how that would make a difference in this scenario. I'm on a stock OOS 5.1.8 base and running Renovate Ice 3.3 (along side their custom Magisk 16.5 build) + ElementalX 1.09.
[Android Software Development] [Jaco69]:
I did some test, the problem is not the kernel (tested stock, blu_spark and ElementalX with same result). Maybe depending on Magisk mod? How can I test it? Or maybe you can test with official Magisk?

[Android Software Development] KnifeFed:
Their custom Magisk build is in this thread: https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/development/renovate-ice-stables-nightlies-svn-t3801364/

However, I didn't have any problems on Magisk 16.0 or 16.4 either.
[Android Software Development] [Jaco69]:
Tested custom Magisk build, no result. I also tried to deactivate all magisk modules, no result. LMT seems working soon after reboot, then after toast message "LMT is started" and "LMT obtain superuser", not launching apps anymore. I would really appreciate any suggestion, any idea!

I'm on nitrogen os with my pixel 2 xl.

Version lmt 2.8 did not fully work, the apps did not load it added to the pie, only the notification drop down did. Read the thread and tried the 2.9beta and it worked nicely but after a while the apps will stop working again. notification drop down works all the time though. When I reboot it'll work again but stop after a while.

Hello to all.

I've been using this Launcher for a long time and I find it fantastic.

A question: why does it have an expiration date?

I ask because I would be sorry if I could not use it anymore if it were not then updated. Thanks to those who will answer me.
[Android Software Development] Nevermindthelabel:
I believe the dev just wants everyone to be on the latest version
[Android Software Development] glowerita:
So ... is there a new version once a year?

I hope that the developer does not abandon this fantastic application.
[Android Software Development] mauam:
It's far from be abandoned. Check this post.

Just wanted to report a bug. The pie control stopped working without explanation. Normal gestures still worked, but the pie control wouldn't restart even when I force closed the LMT process. Reboot fixed it though.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Do you have a special usecase to reproduce the bug? What device/ROM? Can you make a logcat when the problem occurs a second time? Thanks!

[Android Software Development] chikimonke:
I don't have a specific use case, but I've had LMT stop working randomly as well on my VZW GNex running a preview/nightly build of AOKP based on 4.2.1. I generally don't need to restart to fix it, but I do have to at least go into the app and start the service again, and if that doesn't work, force stop it and then start the service again. On newer builds of AOKP it seems to be happening less though, so it may very well be ROM based, and no fault of your app.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
I'm testing lmt atm on 4.1 and 4.2 roms and it's working for days without these problems. So it would be really interesting to see a logcat from such a situation...

I see that 1.65 has an option to show the notification bar. It seems to work. I did get a few force closes. However, it does not work when running full screen (like the stock browser's full screen mode)

Is there a way to show just the status bar?
[Android Software Development] dakunesu:
yeah unless you use tablet status bar, the bar has to show in order to get the notifies shade
[Android Software Development] Mao04:
I am also getting force closes on a Verizon GNex. I am running Paranoid Android based on AOSP 4.2.1. I get them when ever I assign OpenNotificationBar to a pie position or when i assign it to an ISAS. For the pie position the F/C happens when the pie overlay is activated. For the ISAS it F/Cs when I swipe. If I assign OpenNotificationBar to a gesture it works fine and otherwise everything in the app works fine.

I included a logcat. let me know if you need anything more.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
The logcat is unfortunately too short and not showing the problem. I found the problem with the pie (just forgot to add an icon for this action) but I can't reproduce the isa crash. Can you post a complete logcat? Thanks!

[MENTION=1864347]noname81[/MENTION], LMT v. 2.9 beta 1 (I belive latest posted) is force closing just after reboot. After that I see notification Magisk is performing startup tasks. My guess is LMT asks root permissions too early after reboot before Magisk is ready and not obtaining rood is force closing. I have to open LMT app and enable it manually. Its OP5T running Candy 8.1 July security patch, Magisk 16.0.

I check das well with Magisk 16.6 and 16.7, in both cases LMT is not auto enabling pie after reboot.

Hi, I saw that you used v2.9 beta1. I crosschecked the code and saw that I already fixed the bug in beta 2 which I already posted! :D Could you do me a favor and test an even newer version? I did a lot of smaller changes and you could tell me, if beta 3 is still working as expected. Note: When I just tested the latest version on my Pixel 2 XL, LMT was flagged by Play Protect and gave me a warning!? Could you tell me, if it's the same on your device? Thanks!
[Android Software Development] Natakranta:
Pleasure on my side :)

Problem fixed. LMT is now auto enabling after reboot :good:

I remember I had LMT flagged by Play Protect some time ago, but didn't care as I switch off Play Protect.

I tested now, turned it on, run a scan and it is not flagging any of my apps. Screen **** attached.

I'll keep it now to see if it changes its mind and start disliking LMT again. I'll report back if so.

Thanks a mill for update. :good:

[Android Software Development] lynnharry:
Currently, without root, I'm using Last app switcher in combination with LMT and it works like wonders. With the exception that it will have a delay when you are at the home screen, which is a known problem that won't ever have a solution because of how Android works. LAW provides a shortcut, that whenever is activated will take you to the last app. Just set one of the pie to LAW shortcut and you are good to go.

Last app switcher does need an extra "usage access" permission.
[Android Software Development] :
Sooo... Is LMT going to use Android's notification access feature to display notifications by 2.9 final or are we going to wait a bit longer for that one?
[Android Software Development] lynnux:
Arrghh, been using LMT for a few years, first time I can't get it to work. Just rooted Essential phone, running P beta. Before root it worked, now only the basics that load on installation work (recents, home, back, menu). When I add apps, nothing happens. I've checked the usual, accessibility, draw over other apps, etc. Any ideas?

Edit: right after posting this, out of desperation I tried one more thing and it worked. In order to root on the P beta I had to use the Magisk 16.7 beta to patch the boot.img. I just downgraded to Magisk 16.0, rebooted, and now it's working as usual.
[Android Software Development] NBruderman:
Do you know what causing the Google Protect faliure? Should I ignore it?
[Android Software Development] noname81:
I don't know exactly but I would like to know... :D I updated the build system and sdk so it could be that now Play Protect is able to better inspect my code! :D I mean LMT always used code for the root features as some other root apps do, which are not compliant with Google's Play Store rules.

Short answer: You can ignore it! :D
[Android Software Development] Natakranta:
I've just checked again and LMT is still not being flagged by Play Protect, I rerun the scan and it says "Looks fine. No harmful apps found"

For anybody bothered, just switch Play Protect off ;)

Hi noname81:

just tried beta3 on my 1+3T(no root), I have some suggestions:

1, could you make the " previous app" available without root?

2, I like the PIERECENT, but sometimes I might accidentally activate it, can we return to the original PIE status when our touch point moves back to

the point we start it?

3, I can't find way to activate pointer, does it needs root too?

4, could you give us a lock screen button without root?

I have to install some company app, so I have to keep my phone unrooted, sorry

I read that LMT needed to be constantly in the background in this thread and I use on the right side. But then I use another gesture app for the bottom and I didn't have any issue with it although there is no notification about the gesture app running in background (on Oreo)

Only difference I see is LMT is instantly ready to use after a reboot.

Does LMT really need to be kept working in background when it is used only for replacing the navigation bar like for me?
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Hm, this should only happen on Android 9. Can you post a logcat from the first app launch? Thanks!
[Android Software Development] noname81:
I think the other app is also running a service in the background. It could be, that it's trying to hide the notification though. Since Oreo you can easily silence the notification via Android so I didn't want to do hacky stuff in LMT to hide it.
