Re: [APP] LMT Launcher v1.8 for GNex/Nexus4/Nexus7/GSIII/HD2 and more... (ROOT)

Yep, it's as easy as that. If you have a gnex, you probably won't have that line in your build.prop. Just add it and set out to 1 (basically tells the os that you have physical buttons, so nave bar is turned off). Set to 0 to undo or remove the line.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Can you check if this LMT version doesn't have the described problem? If you still have it, can you make a logcat?

Btw: In this version the status info in animation is based on the "pie animation" settings. When you set pie animation to "0" also the status info comes up immediately.

So I should still be able to access pie when keyboard is up? I can't seem to make it work regardless where I try. I'm probably missing something simple but I can't find it.

Also, v1.8 test3 fixed my app issue with accessibility. Thanks! I didn't expect you to fix it so fast! I wish all app developers could work like you! lol

When you change a pie activation area setting, I color the activation areas black instead transparent. When you then open the keyboard, (without using bottom pie) you will see the area(s). I move them all upwards...

Re: [APP] LMT Launcher v1.8 for GNex/Nexus4/Nexus7/GSIII/HD2 and more... (ROOT)

OK. I tried again and I can get it to come up now. I swear I tried before but couldn't get it to work. I think I just wasn't hitting the right spot. I didn't realize how specific of an area you have to hit because swiping from the bottom of the screen is easier. You don't have to worry about the Y area so much when its coming from the absolute bottom. lol. I know all of that is adjustable though. Sorry about that. Thanks again! Thanks for that fix, too. Seems to be working perfect through several reboots so I'd say its good! :D

Re: [APP] LMT Launcher v1.8 for GNex/Nexus4/Nexus7/GSIII/HD2 and more... (ROOT)

I agree... The Pie concept is obviously derived from the stock ICS browser. However, if the PA team didn't know about this app (which has been around for quite a while), then they're pretty clueless (most devs are keenly aware of popular apps like this). Regardless of who came up with what, it's great to see devs working together and sharing code and ideas, because it really drives the Android platform forward. :)
[Android Software Development] ic2:
Install this app HERE, grant it root, disable nav bar and restart. Before you do any of that you should already have lmt installed and configured otherwise when you restart you phone there will be no navigation icons for you to use.
[Android Software Development] krzych:

[Android Software Development] noname81:
All fixes and features for v0.7 implemented. Now I need to test the new version a little bit, so the upload will be tomorrow. And yes, ActivitySelect will be included... :D
[Android Software Development] krzych:
Thanks. And I have a new feature request - quite easy I suppose. If you can, add a "shortcut" as an acton to take after swipe. Why? (many reasons, but one is really usable) - look at Elixir app. This app has every action you could imagine to take when "switching" something based exactly on shortcuts. I'm using it for example when entering/leaving car - it switches gps/wifi/bluetooth/power/timeouts/lockscreen/and many many more, and paralelly launches all car apps needed like blackbox, navigation, car music player and so on. It would be nice if your app could in the future support such a wide range of paralell actions, but we don't need to invent the wheel while having Elixir and it's shortcuts/profiles etc.

So, adding shortcut - isn't it another additional switch? If not (and I suppose not), there should be another "browser" class for it...

:)

And again, thanks and congratulations for the good job already done :).
[Android Software Development] noname81:
v0.7 uploaded to OP. Some fixes and improvements, the new activity select feature and also a blacklist to be able to exclude some apps from gesture recognition (e.g. for games where LMT just interferes with the onscreen input). Enjoy!
[Android Software Development] gnash.s:
Hello noname81,

Thanks for this awesome port. I have used the LMT for windows right from your first version and this was something that I missed the most in android. It's great to see that this is running fine in Android. You are doing great!

Couple of things..

1. It looks like there is a delay in the gesture recognition and command action. I'm using HD2. Does this happen on Evo3d as well?

2. Blacklist for Switch commands (next, previous). I need to exclude some apps like the launcher while switching.

Thanks,

Nash
[Android Software Development] krzych:
Yes Sir! ;D

I hope, I won't get boring with those feature requests, but here's antoher one! ;)

An icon where the "app" can be choosen while it is already choosen. Good to know what's beneath rarely used gesture when you try to learn them all and set up ergonomically
[Android Software Development] IvanNCase:
Would this be possible:

making the hardware key area allow single touch point gestures. You'd be able to hit the hardware keys like normal but you could launch commands by sliding left or right a half inch or so. Basically you could map them two the left and right keys and it would emulate having am optical joystick.I know on my thunderbolt the hardware key area is just an extension of the screen and that the two finger gestures work even when one finger is on it.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
1. There will always be more delay between gesture recognition and the actual command in android compared to winmo. But this is because of the Android framework and not LMT so I can't optimize it.

2. Could be done, but where should I place the UI items? On the settings page?

[Android Software Development] noname81:
Yeah, good idea for v0.8 :D ...

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Android Software Development] noname81:
This could be easily done but it would be totally device specific. I never thought that LMT would ever run on so many android devices while doing so many low level stuff...

Perhaps one could think about a more generic approach: allowing single touch swipes in a special area which the user can define!? What device are you talking about?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Android Software Development] IvanNCase:
I've got a thunderbolt (480x800). I figured different resalutions would make it tricky but maybe a setting where the user can set how many lines in portrait from the top e.g 800 to set the second zone and then the same for how many over in landscape (Should always be the same but who knows). That would leave it open to the user to play around and maybe even set it to say 700 or 750 to open it up a little to make room for up and down gestures without encroaching to far into the normal working area. Mind you I don't know which corner the touchscreen starts in and there's a bit to account for the alternate landscape and even upside down if it's enabled.

Edit: Actually maybe just letting the user enter all four sides of the main window from whichever corner is XY0 like Top(0), Bottom(800), Left(0), Right(480). and anything outside of those limits would allow single point gestures. That would make it easyer to add tablets to the mix and allow peaple to play around with setting an area with a few pixels on an edge that could launch things or skip tracks.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Had a problem with swipes and recognition performance on my GSN. So I fixed the bug and refactored the whole TouchService to make it more performant/save battery. I also adjusted the compiler settings for the lib to reduce the size and to gain more speed :D ...

so voila: v0.7 uploaded to OP...
[Android Software Development] krzych:
Does not work. Still one position for Sygic which launches downloader instead main app.
[Android Software Development] gnash.s:
1. Got it. No problem. Even with the delay, this is still better than switching through long home press.

2. Great. Yes you can put this like the other blacklist option.

Thanks
[Android Software Development] noname81:
OK I didn't test it before with sygic but now I downloaded it: it's showing 3 activities for me: downloader, navi, and resolver activity. When starting the navi activity via LMT the following is executed:

01-21 19:49:11.360 D/LMT::Launcher(8341): Fire action Type: 18 String: com.sygic.aura/com.sygic.aura.SygicNaviActivity

Isn't this correct? Did you use the activity or app command?

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
[Android Software Development] krzych:
S*^%&, got me :D Sorry :D Didn't supposed you made another "button" :) Even thou, I was confused when displaying activities and saw only one Sygic... At last, when I clicked it, it revealed the three options :) Thanks :) And sorry again, my bad clicking app button :)

Now this one will be my main launcher ;P :D. Did you think about rotation?
[Android Software Development] jodeltje:
I have a Note too and really really want this too!

The activity is:

Hope this helps making it possible to lauch it using LMT!

[Android Software Development] noname81:

EDIT : okaaaaaay, I have no idea what that was going on about, I don't have ADB, and don't understand how that code would become something I could run (my guess would be that I would save the text.... Forget it, I'm just guessing randon ****.

Could you give me a few pointers, or if it's just a little work, do it for me?

Whatever you decide, I'm very happy with the application you ported!
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Ok, it should be something like this:

am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.sec.android.app.controlpanel/com.sec.android.app.controlpanel.activity.RunningAppsListActivity

When you don't have an adb connection to your phone test it via e.g. terminal emulator from the market. When the command is working there, just create a script executing that command.

Info Timing

The clock and info text are a great additions, however, they 'toggle' back-and-forth very quickly. The awkward angle of the text makes it take a little longer to read and it toggles before I'm finished reading.

I like the PA inspired color, is there any way of being able to change the color when you hover over a piece of pie? I've tried a few different things, nada.

I've also tried to theme it so that 4 of the pieces of pie are one color, then the middle piece is a different color. I tried putting different hex codes in the 'set pie color' but it didn't work. Anyone got any suggestions?

[Android Software Development] noname81:
Yes, With the latest build you can change the color for everything: pie, select, clock, notifications. So e.g. try "gray,yellow,black,yellow,white". You can use hex codes or those Android color constants:

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/graphics/Color.html
[Android Software Development] CPTBeaker:
For the color options, how do I make the icons display normally without being colored? I tried assigning an arbitrary color and make it transparent (tried opaque also) and the icons are invisible or tinted.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Just swipe on the outer area, the animation will pause and you can read your notification. When you swipe to the inner pie again, the animation is resumed.
[Android Software Development] molesarecoming:
you must know that developing means you have your head stuck in the sand. you see nothing you are unaware of everything. it means your own android device has no soul, no installed apps. it just makes no sense because you wipe it so often at some point you give it up. developing and enjoying android thats not possible. for me at least. my joy is the joy of those that like my stuff.

we did not look to lmt for pie of course. we wrote our own pie in the beginning, months and months ago, i still have the apk here - it was so ****ty that we looked at the aosp browser control next. i dont know if its visible to you but heres a test: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XLG9pgYY2U it goes back to earlier talks a couple of months ago. november we made the decision to look for the aosp browser control (*) at this point we havent known or seen lmt, if it existed, fine with me as well

yes i saw lmt on the front page oné day and i was really pissed for a moment, not because its similiar, its really not - we wanted a dedicated UI, he gives root users means to navigate, both have their right to exist, i was pissed because i know i would be in the mud now, having to defend myself. theres some crazy people going to our g+ channel saying rip off blabla. its sick. all this happens while noname and i never lost one ounce of respect or exchanged one bad word. i will try lmt one day and see if i can get some inspiration from it, and im kinda honored he's taking up our ideas now for his project, why not.

not to spam this thread, ok? just want to have clarity in this matter and i hope we get less trolling now. (-:
