I don't know what device and Rom you're running - But I don't know why you have to Reboot your device to enable the Nav Bar (unless it's a build.prop edit - which you'd have to do regardless of LMT).

You could also go to Settings - Apps - Click on the Gear - Scroll to the bottom - Click on Special access - Draw over other apps and change LMT to Off.

If you're doing a Clean Flash (Factory Reset etc) Just allow Storage Permissions to the apps you want Before you enable LMT...

At any rate it's not the fault of LMT.

I just installed v2.8 and I can't find some app I installed, I have tried restart my device and didn't help. I have been using LMT for many years so I should know how it works

Anyone can help?

Thanks

menu and recentapps

Why do the menu and recentapps do the same thing??

They both display recent apps.

I have 2.8 installed.
[Android Software Development] EMJI79:
Yeah, I am hiding navigation bar with build prop.

I am using Sony z5 premium with stock ROM.

I have just installed my apps so I didn't yet set up apps. Once it is done there would be no problem.

Maybe you think it is not an issue with LMT but maybe further development will fix my issue, you never know.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
There is not much I can do from LMT side. The issue is fixed in Android N though...
[Android Software Development] EMJI79:
Good news [emoji1]
[Android Software Development] starche_old:
Quick question here. I'm on LMT v2.8.

I moved from nexus 5 to galaxy s6. I've got used to direct dial coz it was working perfectly fine on nexus 5. But now I'm out of luck with S6. When I'm tapping on direct dial, just nothing happens. For sure, i gave LMT permission to call the phone.

What I'm doing wrong? Thank you.

Maybe this was asked before, sorry if i missed it. Is it possible to launch a "floating window" with LMT on Nougat? Online they say to enable "Freeform Windows" and install Taskbar from the Play Store. Why would i do the LMT is the best launch utility.

Thanks!

Hi noname81,

I was using LMT v2.4 just to have the pie controls as my hardware keys barely work but today it stopped working.

Then I realized it expired :(

Is there a way to extend the expiration date in this version? Which other lightweight version works as of today?

Big thanks for such a great job!
[Android Software Development] MrKaon:
Use the latest version 2.8

Kill App and Kill All Apps doesn't wotk for me.

Hi there..

Thanks for this fantastic, functional app.

Yesterday my LMT v2.1 has been expired, forcing me to install 2.8, but the kill app is not working on it as it just act like the homescreen button and does not force stop the current app. (eventhough it granted my superuser permission)

I was facing the same issue on the old versions of LMT like 1.x but it was fixed in 2.1 now it just stopped working again... :(

My device is GT-N7100 and android is stock 4.1.2 jelly beans (I had to stick with it for some reasons so plz don't blame me using that...)

Thanks so much. :)
[Android Software Development] Ali._.Goli:
I realized that this problem has began to appear from LMT 2.2 (which its bakward compatiblity had been broken before it's been corrected in the 2.3)

So my request is, to remove the time limit for the old versions (in case you maybe one day wanted to remove backward compatiblity for old APIs)

So please do this favor for us/yourself and remove the time limit. (I can understand that if you ,one day for exp, make the program non-free,(for any cause like not being donated anymore) you may want the others to pay for the old versions but plz consider, it might also get your fantastic app, to be patched)

Thanks so much.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
I won't activate old versions of LMT anymore. Instead I'll try to fix your issue for LMT v2.9. Can you please provide a logcat for this issue? Thanks!
[Android Software Development] Ali._.Goli:
Thanks for answering this soon.

You said you won't activate old versions ANYMORE, did you mean that you used to do this before? and is it possible for me to know the reason? (Didn't mean anything just asking..)

Heres the logcat, I opened The ES Explorer and tried to close it once with ka and once with kaa. none if them lead to force stop and by the way, it has reseted my wallpaper!:

(Please let me know if you needed a log for LMT 2.1 too.)

Thanks again...

In the ISA action selector, Pie Pointer is selectable but trying to call it up with the swipe doesn't work. It would be cool if you could have ISAs launch Pie Pointer and Pie. That way you could call up Pie with a swipe rather than a press.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
The trace does not show much. But I have an idea why it broke. I need to reactivate an old phone running KitKat for testing. :D Let's see...
[Android Software Development] Ali._.Goli:
Are you doing this for me? Thanks man! I really appreciate it;:laugh:

(And for the log, maybe because it was in default verbose mode not debug mode? However I'm not familiar with it at all ! but I would be glad to prepare any other things needed..:o )

Thanks in advance!

Thanks! Let me know if you find something.

Edit: 2.7 and 2.6 beta 7 arent working either
[Android Software Development] noname81:
FYI: I fixed it. Will be part of LMT v2.9.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
I checked your trace: It's because of SELinux. Which root app and root app version are you using? You could try to temp set SELinux to permissive mode and start LMT again.

Thanks much for having a look.

I'm using SuperSU v2.79 SR2 which installed as systemless by default.
[Android Software Development] MysticGolem:
Hello noname81,

is it possible to try an alternative method to using LMT root functions using ADB granting permissions?

I have used the following instructions from chamonix to get Better Battery Stats to work without Root:

I personally use Pointer from LMT which currently requires Root access, but could it be possible to use ADB commands to grant LMT Launcher the necessary permission to use Pointer without root?

I use a few applications that use Root but I do think it would be nice to use applications without rooting, just like indicated in the above quote.

Looking forward to hearing from.

Cheers!
[Android Software Development] metalwraith:
Been having that issue with the last few versions myself. No idea, I think I commented about it a few months back to. I barely see half of my apps on my Note 3.
[Android Software Development] flight243:
Thanks, works like a charm. If only we could forget about the expiration date..... :rolleyes:
[Android Software Development] MrKaon:
I think expiry date is essential it forces you to come back here and update the app.
[Android Software Development] xSilas43:
No name stated why he uses an expiry date a few pages back and i personally agree with his method, if you don't like that, you're welcome to make your own pie launcher with no expiry.

Hi guys, is there a way of creating a flashable .zip file of the latest version? I would like to install it as system.

Im on RR M ROM and I can't seem to activate Screenshot function in LMT Pie, but the buit-in Pie of RR M ROM can take Screenshot. Everything works fine except for the Screenshot, LMT has root access as per Toast of SuperSU. Anyone have solution for this? Thank you.

Try giving LMT accessibility access in settings.
[Android Software Development] ednometry:
Nav Button Theming

Love the app, any chance you could make it read subfolders in the "user image search path" and have those folders show up as options under "Set Nav Button Style"? This way we could have a bunch of styles available to go with Substratum themes. Or maybe even have the option to point the "user image search path" to wherever Substratum themes store the overlays for the navbar, that way LMT would match up automatically to the Substratum theming of the navbar images.
[Android Software Development] 24imelqui:
I gave access to it and still does'nt take a SS. I'll just ignore it and put another shortcut. Thank you!
[Android Software Development] xSilas43:
What device and android version are you using? Cause the screenshot works for me nexus 6p on android N

Edit: saw your on RR, maybe an issue with the ROM. Works on nitrogen for me.

So we need to donate to remove expiration date? :)
[Android Software Development] shaggyskunk:
Donation is to support the development of LMT (HAPPILY donated btw).

Search the Thread for the reasons for expiration date - makes sense to me!

Using LMT 2.8 on OnePlus 3T with OxygenOS 4.0.2, I can't use the back and home buttons in the Pie, only 'recent' works.

I added LMT to the device's administrators, allowed the app to receive use infos, everything looks OK as it was on my Galaxy S5 with CM14.1, but no way to make the pie work correctly. :(
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Please activate LMT in the accessibility settings. Then it should work.
[Android Software Development] ScratMan38:
It is enabled, but still doesn't work.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Hm, then the Android version seems broken. The accessibility API is an official Android API and when LMT is activated in the accessibility settings, LMT uses this instead root to do back, home and recents actions.

[Android Software Development] Mao04:
I use the "pie pointer" for this. It's a bit clunky but works fine.
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Yes, or you could use a script action and issue the input command to do a swipe input from the left side of the screen, e.g.:

"input swipe 0 1000 500 1000 100"

"Do a 100 ms swipe from point 0,1000 to point 500,1000 on the screen. Then your side menu should pop up. Hth!
[Android Software Development] AndroidHtc101:
Pie pointer work very well thank you!

Could you guide me through those values to Input please? , the pointer is good put sometimes its hard to aim the pointer, basically I'm trying to swipe the hamburger menu open without reaching my thumb up.

Thanks for all your help and replies you guys are great:)
[Android Software Development] Mao04:
Wow, that is a handy script to know about. Many possibilities. Thanks!
[Android Software Development] noname81:
You could just paste the complete string I gave you into the script action input box from LMT and it should work. Perhaps just adjust the 1000 for your screen resolution. it should be ~ screen height / 2...
[Android Software Development] AndroidHtc101:
I don't get what to put in what box it's really difficult for me.

it set to the bottom but when I'm in landscape its on the bottom of the screen instead of on the right left.. it moves with screen rotation I want it to stay put.

Hey, so I guess you have been asked about this before. Is there anyway to keep using the older versions, so we can keep LMT running in older smartphones/tablets?

I find this expirity thing, very dumb and useless, on such a piece of software. Why on the Earth, people shouldn't stick with an older version if keeps working just fine?!
[Android Software Development] xSilas43:
Older versions have bugs newer versions have fixed. For simplicity they expire after quite a while. No way to keep using the older versions, you can update without losing anything so I don't see the issue.

how to make a fresh install

I see. You can setup an area on the side as well as the bottom. So when you rotate you device you will have the option to use either one...

Mobile Data Toggle has a problem for me on newest LineageOS 14.1 (Android N) for serranoltexx (S4 Mini) It's possible to switch it off without problems but switching on doesn't work. The button is turned to "on" in the settings and the small "x" disappears but it never connects to mobile data. To get it working again I turn on flight mode once and after turning it off mobile data connects properly. Even when manually doing "svc data enable" via terminal the same thing happens. Accessibility is turned on. latest LMT v2.8. I'd upload a log file if needed. Thanks for your great work! Really love the app
[Android Software Development] kahzul:
Errm... Are you the developer?

The issue is that, I have been using LMT on my Nexus 7 since, well, since I can remember. Now, I just can't! When I try to install the latest version it gives me an error.

You say - older versions have bugs, so you need to update, blah, blah... I say - I haven't found a single bug yet, everything was ok and no need for updates in like, maybe anywhere near the next century... There's just no effin point.

Seriously, v2.2 of this app, did just fine. So maybe, you tell me what is wrong with this scenario?

This device has a specific purpose and I chose not to update any of its software, unless of course, some developer of the "clever" kind, forces me too.

I have been doing some reading here and there and, I don't get it. If the sole purpose for the expiration is evading older version support, why not just warning and letting people know they will not have it, to begin with?!
[Android Software Development] shaggyskunk:
Well if you've been reading - You undoubtedly saw the post regarding the expiration date - from the Developer here:

I've been using LMT since the good old days. It's definitely the best and always my only option to get rid of the software buttons. I've never had any issues until today. Someone gave me a mint LG G2 (yes I know, it's old). I unlocked it, and am using it with my spare line. When I install LMT, no matter how wide I set the activation length on the bottom (I always use bottom, not centered and use some number like 9999 for the length) it only works from the center of the screen to the right edge. From the center to the left edge nothing happens. It happens on the stock ROM as well as CM13 and Resurrection Remix. I've tried v2.7 & v2.8. I'm not sure what the issue could be. Has anyone ever encountered this?
[Android Software Development] noname81:
Hm, good question. Did you try setting more realistic values for your phone? Your phone's resolution is 1920x1080, so perhaps 1000 as width? Can you post all values you set in the PIE ACTIVATION section? Thanks!
[Android Software Development] kahzul:
Yeah, I saw that, and it doesn't add up. If I was a developer and I wanted people to use the latest version of a piece of software I developed, I would simply, strongly advised them to do so. I would tell them to bear with the lack of support for older versions, so that it makes a lesser burden on me to support only the latest changes to the code. No need to complicate even further, no need for extra useless crap. No need for justification either way, since this is after all, free software, and people should ask only, not demand for support at any given timeline. I merely saw something that I thought it wasn't right so, I'm sorry for feel like being crictic about it. I was happy enough with version 2.2 of this application. I would never ask the developer to support v2.2 to this day, as I would certainly never ask him to provide any upgrades from it, later on. IMO, he can drop the support for older versions as well as that expiration annoyance, any time he wants. God, I can't stress enough how terribly akward it feels to have to beg on my knees, to be able to, lonely and quietly, use a less than improved, (yet fine from where I stand) old piece of free software, these days! FFS!...

Also, why are the download links, for older versions, in the OP made avaiblable then? This whole thing doesn't make much sense...

Forget that, I had a corrupt apk file. I downloaded it again and installed v2.8 sucessfully. However, I found out that the pie's "Recent Apps" navigation command is not working. Already tried re-assigning it, again and, assigning it to another pie slice. Also tried changing from "Lollipop" to "KitKat" style icons, and still got nothing. Needless to say, this was working perfectly in v2.2.

Thanks anyway
