Quick Question:

I bought the app several months ago, and I've been using the Beta Dev version (aka the lite version with a dev-generated key) since. However since I put all my apps on auto update, I didn't notice when my dev7.0 version got upgraded to the regular lite 6.3.4 (which doesn't have recordable gesture capabilities).

I know recordable gestures were/are not going to be supported for a while, so basically my question is: is there ANY reason to continue using the lite version? Any goodies or beta functions or anything I'm missing? Or should I just bite the bullet and head back to the paid version, remake my gestures, and stick with that version moving forward?

I'm assuming the answer is: go with the paid version --- just figured I'd check first. Thanks a ton for any info.

New GMD Gesture Control version

6.4.0:

- Added option to disable gestures in Notifications and Settings panel.

- Fixed issues on CM 10.2

Same answer as below.

I won't be posting Lite development versions anymore. Go with paid version and join my G+ beta testing community. I will only post new beta versions there. Don't forget to join beta for this particular app when it is posted (there is no beta version at the moment).

I think I know what is happening here, but it is not fixed yet. I guess you have to disable all touch consumption on S4 for now. Please send me log cat too.

I have no plans to support mouse at the moment.
[Android Apps and Games] Fruktsallad:
Great, I'll get you a log cat! Since posting the above it has actually occurred a few times even without touch consumption being enabled. I'll try and capture that for you as well.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] Rtyfgat:
Well, sorry to hear that. Would definitely buy it if it supported mouse, and may be some other people too.

You can install GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys and you will be able to reach auto hide navigation bar (Quick Bar) any time. It works on Note too and it has Menu key.
[Android Apps and Games] stryker01:
Hi there. Thanks for a great app.

Also I found a some kind of bug. On my Motorola XT910 (RAZR MAXX) I use GC in "Phone mode" and turned off all default gestures, using only a custom gestures. But when I swype from left edge of screen (first default swype) - GC hide a bottom icon line of Motorola's launcher. Pressing "Back" or "Home" buttons restores icons

Motorola launcher:

"Lost" icons after swyping to the right

GC settings:
[Android Apps and Games] Rtyfgat:
Really good suggestion. Already installed, tried and upgraded to pro. It's really what I needed, I think it siuts even better to my specific needs then GC. Thanks a lot.

Only, I didn't find how to exit the app, there is no dedicated button like in GC, so that means only through apps manager or reboot?
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
If you want to exit it completely, uncheck 'Notification' and turn OFF 'Enabled'.

Please open 'Touch Consumption' tab and turn OFF 'Consume events in starting zones'. Let me know if it helps with this issue. I know it will scroll you screen then, but I want to know if its related.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Hey definitely a nice app, i love to use it

Two questions:

Is there something like a favourite list for the 'next/ last application' action? I don't want to reach recent apps but some apps always. If it's in tell me where if not pls add this

And would it be possible to add a gesture to wake up screen (double tap for example) like on lg g2?
[Android Apps and Games] edan1979:
Dont know why but back function is not working on note 8.
[Android Apps and Games] stryker01:
Done.

Everething worked as planned - bottom line of icons not hiding. Also turn on default gesture from left edge - also worked fine.

Gestures While Screen is Off

Love the app...first install on every android device for the whole fam :) Was hoping there would be the ability to use some/all gestures while screen is off...imagine if while phone is playing music you could double tap either side of the screen to skip tracks. Not to mention all the other actions that could be used. I am not sure all what is possible with android, but gesture while screen off would be awesome.
[Android Apps and Games] jarayn:
Hi.

Is it not possible to make the page top and page end functions work again. It's been a good six months since they got broken.

Probably the best browser shortcut too.

Oh and what about icon themes. Any way to apply those?

Thanks

Random clash with Slide2Wake of Siyah?

Really loving this app. I bought the licensed version just a few hours after trying out the lite version - definitely a winner app. Can't believe I survived 1.5 years without it. :victory:

I am using it in conjunction with Siyah's Slide2Wake feature - which means I am hardly every using the hardware buttons anymore. :laugh: I have noticed that after installing GMD GestureControl, the slide-to-wake doesn't work every now and then (roughly 25% of the time I use it) - it's pretty random so I can't really predict when it will happen - the only thing that might be common for when it doesn't work is that the device has been off for a longer period. I want to point out that I never had this problem at all with Slide2Wake before installing GMD.

Has anyone else experienced the same problem? Can you suggest some tweak to GMD settings that might prevent the issue with Slide2Wake? My device is Samsung GS3 with stock ROM.

Thanks,

Viper21

Support for Pantech Element ICS

Hi,

I was wondering what the configuration is for the tablet Pantech Element, running the stock rooted AT&T rom, on ICS 4.0.4. I tried the above instructions, but on the step 3, the device is not listed so I tried with another one with no success.

This looks like an awesome application. It will help me not to tap the status bar when I am tapping on the on-screen-keyboard.

Thanks,
[Android Apps and Games] marlowe310:
I'm having a recent odd issue - before and after updating to the beta. Basically, it seems to allow gestures when the keyboard is on the screen even when you have set that gesture not to. Thanks for any help - love the app.
[Android Apps and Games] ichbinich:
I did like you descriped, but I bought this app via Paypal because I had no creditcard back then. So now I cannot download the beta version, I have to buy it first (again via Playstore) :(
[Android Apps and Games] lambstone:
[MENTION=4147454]StupidIdea[/MENTION], would it be possible to pause gesture using proximity or light sensor?

I'm using the galaxy s4 with the S-View case, when the case is covered, the phone goes into the "s-view" mode. Screen is still on and able to register touches. For some reason, the flip cover tends to cause phantom touches which causes 3-5 finger gestures through the flip cover.

It would be great if the gestures could be disabled.
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
Is screen locked in S View mode (in other words is it lock screen)?
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
Please fix the delay for buttons like back. It's noticeable since beta 7.0
[Android Apps and Games] lambstone:
From what I can tell, it isn't.

It seem to be an app overlay or just simply an app/system function whereby it pops up over your current phone's app/games.

That being said, it cannot be added into the black list.

When S View activates, it is able to receive touch screen touches for a couple of seconds before the phone goes into standby. Kinda like lock screen but not really.
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
Do you feel only Back is slower or other actions too? I had to do some changes to Back as it was not working on some devices.

How you like 7.0 beta overall?
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
thx,for asking here is what i think so far.

I´d say most if not all gestures feel slightly slower to be honest. They lost its snappy feeling.

Changes I´d like to see

1. dark theme (I think a lot of people want that as well)

2. i would like to have the possibility to direclty disable gesture without having to enter the gesture first. Makes testing way easier and faster.

3. option so that the keyboard doesn´t open up when entering or creating a gesture. It can be a bit annoying especially when you only want to edit like changing the action and don´t even plan to type anything.

4. wider arrows for sorting, I think there´s enough open space left. Then i don´t have to disable gmd while sorting because i use a lot of bezel gestures and i often trigger them by accident while trying to sort.

5.would be amazing if path gestres could be shown visually with arrows as well like the recorded ones.

6.launcher arrangement that actually looks like the one appearing while sorting,so not just one column but the same layout with drag and drop.Would make the arranging way faster and more convenient.

7. There is still no long press time out

8.customizable long press time in milliseconds

9. alt-tab/last app gestures has sometimes an extreme delay on certain apps for me somehow,not sure if it doesn´t interfere with certain similar gestures though

i know this looks like there is a lot wrong but it isn´t the app itself is still the bes (besides the slower gestures atm) but I think those changes could make it even better and easier to use,especially for newbies.
[Android Apps and Games] tiho5:
I'm on this version (6.4.0).

1. These options are on the first tab and I couldn't find them at first. May consider moving them to settings tab?

2. When disable gestures in Notifications and Settings panel is activated:

- they're not working in Notifications (OK)

- but they're working in Settings panel.

- when I swipe up Notifications pulldown gestures don't work for almost 3 seconds. After that they're back.

-but if I exit the notification pulldown by back button this 3 seconds inactivity doesn't happen.

3. There is one more setting just under "disable gestures in Notifications and Settings panel":

-disable while keyboard on screen. This one, when tricked and keyboard is on screen gestures work. I don't have it ticked as I like to set this inside each gesture settings. Or may be I don't understand well what this option is for?

Edit: HTC One, Android 4.2.2

And I want to bump this (did you try reproducing it and is this only happening with me?):

---------- Post added at 12:33 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:11 AM ----------

While I'm on bumping spree, what about this one? I'm aching to have this fixed. Hope you've found the way!
[Android Apps and Games] marlowe310:
One more bug popping up with Beta 7.0: on both my Nexus 7 (2012) and my Xperia Tablet Z, I have the top launchpad set with a toggle for the status bar. Since updating to the beta, however, that toggle doesn't work (this is both with and without the Busybox Toggle checked).

HOWEVER: whenever I enter the app and toggle it manually with the button under settings, it DOES work.

Any idea how to resolve this and (for bonus points!) The keyboard issue I described in my earlier post? Thanks a ton, this app is so useful I just can't function when it's not working.

EDIT: More info: okay the behavior is a little more complicated than I previously described. Using the button from WITHIN the app does still toggle status bar ON and OFF. However, using the shortcut toggle does NOT -- but it DOES disable the home button on the status bar, and neither the toggle, nor the in-app button can restore that Home button functionality -- only a reboot seems to work.

Additionally: I can't say 100% for certain that GMD is to blame for the following bug, but it seems likely with the wallpaper/status bar connection. Basically, if BusyBox is checked and I use the in-App Button to toggle Status Bar OFF, then the wallpaper vanishes as soon as I perform any further action and CANNOT be restored. In fact, no wallpaper can be set to display for any longer than the second or two it displays as the tablet boots up so long as that setting remains. This has occured ONLY on my Xperia Tablet Z.

Thanks again for any help.

This app has cool animations when you switch between apps. Could you please add them?
[Android Apps and Games] ngoonee:
Animations just slow down the actual switching, really....
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
If optional this would be up to the user, right? :)
[Android Apps and Games] ngoonee:
And (in my opinion) a waste of StupidIdea's time.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Well, it was just a question cause i like that.
[Android Apps and Games] lan2sdv:
Please add ability to allow any action on desktop only.
[Android Apps and Games] ichbinich:
Is there any solution for this?
[Android Apps and Games] marlowe310:
Is anyone else having the issue I described above (unable to toggle the status bar EXCEPT from within the app itself)? I've been searching for a solution, but nothing as yet. Just wanted to see if I'm alone on this one.

SIDENOTE: I tried out GMD SoftKey hiding app -- that works fine. However I really would rather keep all the functions I'm used to confined within Gesture Control, so let me know if any further info is needed from my end to isolate the issue.

I would be okay with just going into the app and toggling it each time if that was all that was necessary, but the loss of the wallpaper makes me think there's a deeper issue going on and I don't want to mess with it. NB: I'm using a live wallpaper.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Have you tried using a different gesture? Sounds silly, I know, but it made a difference in my case.
[Android Apps and Games] marlowe310:
Thanks for the idea -- I just tried several different configs (making the shortcut a button in a launchpad; making a gesture that directly toggles the status bar; etc), but no dice. Still only able to toggle from within the app itself.
[Android Apps and Games] gabripranzo:
I have an issue with my note 8.0. The back command is almost not working. May I ask for a fix?

I tried deleting app data, uninstalling and so on but no success.

Just to let you know, it seems the problem with back gesture has gone away after I've installed Xposed framework. I don't know if it's just the framework or some module, but everything works fine now :thumbup:

Inviato dal mio GT-N5100 con Tapatalk 4

Update: I was wrong, works a little better than before, but sometimes I have to repeat the gesture 2-3 times to make it work, so I hope this can be fixed soon.
[Android Apps and Games] jbird951:
I searched thru this thread and didn't see anything that helps my problem. I'm running the latest PAC rom, but I had the same issue with my previous rom (PA 4.3) I have the paid version, it worked for me flawlessly for ages. When I perform a swipe an icon for the app and app name pops up at the bottom of the screen, but the app never opens. I've tried about 10 of my shortcuts and all of them the same thing happens. What I've done

rebooted into recovery and cleared the cache, checked to see if the GDM has root access - when my phone's about fully booted I see the "granted root access to GMD" pop up at the bottom so that seems right.

What should I try? It's a Nexus 4 with the latest PAC nightly build, I've tried about 3 different builds of the rom, same thing. It's 4.3
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Could you please elaborate?
[Android Apps and Games] jbird951:
I perform the swipe to open let's say Any.Do, my phone vibrates and at the bottom I see the Any.Do icon with the name under it. But Any.Do doesn't open up. At this point it's like the phone locks up because I can't click on an icon or swipe down my notification or do anything. I have to turn the screen off and on to be able to use the phone again. I have about 10 custom ones set up and all of them do the same thing.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
You are using a gesture to open the bottom launchpad?
[Android Apps and Games] jbird951:
No, these are the same gestures I've always used. They worked for me up until I installed a PA rom, Which may or may not be the problem. But I can't figure out any other reason. I just uninstalled the app, rebooted into recovery did a cache wipe and will reinstall and try again right now.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
I was just trying to picture an icon appearing randomly at the bottom of the screen. Very weird.

New version 7.0.0

7.0.0:

- Major update

- Graphical gestures

- Android 4.3 issues fix

- New devices

I was not able to finish everything I wanted for new version but decided to split the update so more improvements will be added in the future.

A lot of internal changes went into this version so if you had any issues with previous versions, please try this new version and let me know if you still encounter these problems. I will only investigate problems reported for new version.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Looking forward to testing the latest, but, where is it? Clicking through G+ > join > tester > download brings me to version 6.4.4.
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
It can take a couple of hours to receive the update.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Got it, thanks. Looks awesome.
[Android Apps and Games] tiho5:
Awesome! Just fantastic! Thank you!

Observations:

- all back gestures (I use a few) have a delay of around 1 second. The toast appears immediately. So is the vibraton. But then there is one second of nothing happening and then BACK command is executed (interesting that a vibraton and a toast are also made once more with the execution of the command)

- in the custom gestures tab one can't determine which gesture is activated and which isn't. It would be good to have some indication.

- in custom gestures section I can't find the field to put the gesture name any more.

- on my device with the former GMD versions I wasn't able to do a 2 touch points gesture with touching one of the points and making the path only with the other. Now this works better.

The new UI is great!

Thank you once again! Hats down for this fantastic work!

[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
1) Back - old back implementation was not working on some devices (Note 8) I know this one is slower, but I don't know how to detect if old (faster) implementation works on particular device or not.

2) Inactive gestures are drawn in red color and active in blue. I will add some additional effect to make it more obvious.

3) Name was removed as I don't think it is needed. Lets see what other users think about it.
[Android Apps and Games] tiho5:
I'm not sure if I understand you fully. Is this new implementation temporary?

Because to be honest, now I consider BACK not to be working on my device.:)

This delay is quite unpleasant and BACK is probably the most used gesture...

Every other gesture is instantaneous
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
Can't you make both back implementations optional so everybody can try both ways and see which one works better on his device?
[Android Apps and Games] gabripranzo:
Well, back is working better in my note 8, but has a delay in my S2, so I have restored GMD 6.40 in the S2, while I'm happy with this release in my note :confused:

I'd be happy if I could choose which implementation works better for each device, but I understand it's difficult for you

Inviato dal mio GT-N5100 con Tapatalk 4
[Android Apps and Games] StupidIdea:
I'm trying to figure out why it is not working on some devices. If I cannot fix the "fast" Back I will add an option, but I didn't want to delay the release just because of slightly slower Back :o

Anyone has Note 8 and can help me test it?

Edit: status bar hiding gesture was not working on initial ver 7.0.0, so I uploaded fixed version already. Please wait for an update if that gesture does not work for you.
[Android Apps and Games] nimrodity:
did you seem my last post with a couple of suggestion, i never saw an answer. Would be nice to know, thx
[Android Apps and Games] gabripranzo:
Let me know which kind of test you need. This release seems to work fine here, but I have Xposed framework installed with many modules, so I'm not sure my device is completely affordable for testing ;)

[Android Apps and Games] marlowe310:
Sorry to add to any frustrations, but the issue I mentioned in earlier posts (toggle status bar no longer working EXCEPT from within the app itself) is still present in this latest version. Let me know if there's anything I can try or any other way I could help to resolve it! Thanks much.

EDIT: More Info

A couple more symptoms:

1) No notification messages for successful gestures (I've tried both templates)

2) I'm also experiencing the "back" command delay (stock rooted Sony Xperia Tablet Z)

3) Just wiped GMD from my tablet, redownloaded from the Play store and made a couple test gestures trying to see if I could get that toggle functionality back -- no dice unfortunately. All the above symptoms remain.

Sorry to be such a bummer, btw -- I really appreciate all the hard work you're putting into this app.
[Android Apps and Games] browy:
Can someone please try out this gesture: T-T-H (tap-tap-hold) with one finger for any action. Somehow the hold feature doesn't work for me.
[Android Apps and Games] marlowe310:
UPDATE: I'm not exactly certain what changed, but I now have regained the ability to toggle the status bar through shortcuts/gestures! Hooray!

Minor issues still remaining:

1) toggling the status bar OFF removes the wallpaper (live) and does not restore it until the status bar is toggled back ON. I'll try static wallpapers when i get a chance.

2) Still no notifications upon successful gesture

3) Still a noticeable delay in BACK command, but definitely live-with-able.

Thanks for any info, and let me know if there's anything needing testing.
[Android Apps and Games] PhilipTD:
Works. (But, it's quite unwieldy for me - gets triggered accidentally when double tapping to zoom, and, when typing, forget it)

Hey, I just installed the second 7.0.0 update from the Play Store but status bar hiding is still not working here on both the Nexus 4 and 10 with Android 4.3. The first 7.0.0 only changed the home button into a dotted circle (and removed its functionality), the second 7.0.0 acts like the gesture (double tab T-T in my case) is not being recognized at all. This was working perfectly well with 6.4.0 on both devices so please fix it.
[Android Apps and Games] hasenbein1966:
Could you please re-release the old version (parallel to the new, like "Gesture Control Classic" or so) so that the people which have problems with the new one can go back and have a fully functional device again? Thanks!
