Re: [APP/MOD] TouchControl (a.k.a. PGM Nexus, a.k.a. Slide2Wake) - forget the buttons

$3 for an app that will instantly become the most used app on your phone is definitely worth it! I'm one that will buy again as soon as Trinity is supported! Glad you managed to get an n4 bponury

AW: [APP/MOD] TouchControl (a.k.a. PGM Nexus, a.k.a. Slide2Wake) - forget the buttons

How the settings if I want to have slide2lock on top? Think it's interfering with my Pi control on Paranoid ..

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] malavi:
Yep! I think we can just changing "parameters" :confused:

Another 2 things to make it perfect:

- When in "landscape" to hav "slide2lock" at botton instead of at right... (as option as all that have tablet/phablet mode has its navbar at botton)

- "Slide2Wake" with vertical gesture .... (as in S2W kernel does)

Thanks for your work! ;D Everything runs perfect,! :highfive:

Re: [APP/MOD] TouchControl (a.k.a. PGM Nexus, a.k.a. Slide2Wake) - forget the buttons

Wasn't the screen freeze fixed by performing a multitouch pinch or other gesture? (3 or more fingers).

Or was that on the g nexus?

I guess the only relevant bug report is if someone can REPRODUCE the freeze. Even then, I'm hoping his new version will not be affected by this random bug. :angel: Well, I never experience these freezes anyways :victory:

Don't recall seeing that as a fix so probably the G Nexus. Haven't had any screen freezes so can't confirm if it works for the N4 or not.

Your suggestion is wonderful but... . Imagine you were so smart that you could create something like this app that nobody else so far has figured out. Would you be altruistic enough.

Re: [APP/MOD] TouchControl (a.k.a. PGM Nexus, a.k.a. Slide2Wake) - forget the buttons

Well its not like we are asking for updates and fixes right away, we only ask for the dev to be more interactive in the forums, answer questions, listen to problems and just respond, we don't need a quick fix, we just need his feedback, don't u know how nice it is to have a dev that is constantly active in his app forum? It only takes like 5 min every night to sit and do a multi quote response to what the people have been posting during the day...

I just think that's the way it should be, but well u never know he might be that busy so he can't be very active here

Re: [APP/MOD] TouchControl (a.k.a. PGM Nexus, a.k.a. Slide2Wake) - forget the buttons

Not sure if this is TC caused but I've already tried clean flashing my rom and that didn't fix it... When I make phone calls some times, I get a screen lock noise then the phone call hangs up and phone reboots... Is it because I have the tap to unlock after screen time out?

After a few tests, even with the tap to wake disabled and the slide to wake and lock enabled, I still get reboots on phone calls...

But then when I disabled TC all together, I didn't get any reboots yet.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] frnt:
this app sometimes freeze the touchscreen, i'm using paid version, and now i cannot use this :(

battery drain, because i put the phone in my pocket with the phone's face towards my leg.

just an idea, maybe the developer can make this app activated whenever proximity sensor is not covered. i think that might help reducing battery usage, or the app always scanning for touch while in pocket.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] cocchiararo:
i bet polling that sensor would be even worse for battery :P (i mean, polling it ALL the time, if screen is off, does not seem good :P)

Hi bponury

During the phone call, the touch screen stays active light is off, the touch, the interview is caused by an involuntary termination, your knowledge.

Kernel: Matr1x v8.0
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jan.ringas:
I was experiencing this, too. You can use Tasker (or if you don't have that app you can use Actions, there's a free lite version available: https://play.google.com/store/apps/...EsImNvbS5zaWdtYWNlbC5hY3Rpb25zd29ya3NmcmVlIl0.) to disable Touch Control when a call is active and enable it afterwards automatically.

To enable/disable it:

To disable it run as a shell command:

echo disable > /proc/ponury/status

To enable it run as as shell command:

echo enable > /proc/ponury/status
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] MontAlbert:
For a Tasker noob like me, any chance you could export your tasks for this process for us and post them here? Thanks

***edit*** I think I figured it out. I made a phone call profile. The added a state to say phone call and any (outgoing and incoming), then set it to run a task that ran a shell and used the above command to disable. Then set an exit task to enable it again... Does that sound right?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jan.ringas:
That's exactly the same I did. Glad you figured it out, since I'm rather new to tasker as well I struggled a bit to find a possibility to export my settings :D

In each of the two tasks I additionally specified that the Tasker icon in the status bar gets changed to reflect the current state of Touch Control, but that's rather cosmetic.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] dahi:
thank you jan.ringas, it worked.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] ftarules:
Short answer YES.

Explanation : that is what I've learned from XDA. we are in it for the common good.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] bponury:
@ftarules: I didn't abandon project, I have other projects that also need time (PGM, WiFiKill, FaceNiff and a hell lot more outside of android ecosystem). I was away because it was Easter and I was away from my PC. And last two days I was building my new PC because I needed an upgrade so I could store all that kernels and compile them in some sane amount of time.

Speaking of open sourcing this (like it was never ever ever mentioned before) - I will not make it open source because I will get absolutely nothing from it. People like faux, franco and other would quickly add settings for it in their kernels-control apps and nobody would buy my paid app (what for?). I am absolutely sure about that it's exactly what happened with slide2wake app for Evo3D (that is a project I abandoned) it was open source and it was my first implementation which evolved to all that sweep2wakes and stuffs. I am not even mentioned in any credits. It would work this way:

1) I'm releasing it OS

2) kernel devs incorporate it in kernels all people are happy

3) people stop buying my app because they have in-kernel control features

4) I am abandoning project because it works for me and I can spend my free time riding a bike if I'm not paid for it

Either way I'm pushing update to PGM and will get back to implementing new version which was stalled for two weeks.

And a question, please somebody sum up on which kernel it doesn't work currently so I just test these quickly.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Stryder5:
I think faux 13 betas are the only one not working at the moment.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] wngmv:
I am really sorry and English is not my first language. Can anybody explain to me what does this post mean?

==========

The only time I had a screen touch freeze was when I was hiking, I was using My Tracks (and therefore GPS) to track my trails for more than 3 hours, and listening to music for more than one hour, and then opened Camera. I was able to take 2 pictures, then the screen completely stopped responding to touch. That was on a CM nightly (don't even remember how long ago) and Franco kernel.

Apart from that, I've been on stock/Franco, CM/Franco, and PA/Franco. Never had a screen freeze, reboot, or experiencing any battery drain. For all of you guys who "swear" it is this app that's been causing your battery drain, has anyone actually conducted "controlled" experiment to prove it?

For those who are putting the phones in your pants with the phone facing your leg, you know the purpose of this app is that a swipe would wake the device?

The entitlement is strong within this thread.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jan.ringas:
He was describing the problem that sometimes when in a call the display gets turned off by the proximity sensor, but the screen still responds to touch inputs. If you then happen to touch the screen (for example with your face) at the location of the hangup button the call gets ended.

One solution (that I'm using) is to use Tasker to disable Touch Control just when a call is active and reenable it afterwards.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] VegUnited:

Glad to hear the project is still on its way and imo you shouldn't make this app free (aka open source) as it's an awesome one that deserves the money (not gonna debate on the price :p)

On topic & from my experience it doesn't work on:

Franco Kernel r110 - r118 (latest)

Well it works, but like it's already well known, the app makes the digitizer freeze every now and again (randomly)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
I thought the issue was that the screen stays off once the proximity sensor starts activating. So after you pull your face away after a call the screen stays off unless you slide2wake or hit the power button. Either way it becomes a panic moment because I want to end the call as fast as I can, but am unable to because my screen doesn't turn back on unless I do something special. I'm too used to the proximity sensor functioning
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jan.ringas:
Well, it is not easy to understand what he meant and your interpretation might be correct, too.

But whether it's the screen reacting to inputs when it shouldn't or the display not turning on when it should: both bugs should be avoidable by disabling Touch Control while in a call and reenabling it afterwards (for example via Tasker).

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] mrxd:
My thinking is if you hit a hard object with the phone facing outwards there is a higher chance of a screen fracture. Having it facing inwards, the back of your phone will take the hit and your leg would absorb/cushion the screen. I'd just rather the bug just gets fixed than having to worry about which way my phone goes into my pocket :good:

Yea that's true. Well with my settings I've never seen my phone turn on in my pocket

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jan.ringas:
I had the unresponsive screen only very few times.

The few cases they occurred I had my phone in my pocket without my flip cover case and the screen facing towards my leg. Maybe that somehow has anything to do with the screen constantly receiving touches from my leg and therefore "locking" itself and not receiving any touches? Read a few times from people who had these freezes that were putting their phone without a protection into their pocket.

I am starting to think that it's more ROM related then kernel related so I started a poll (check first page). If you encounter a lot of freezes please select which ROM were/are you using when these freezes happened. Please do NOT take part in poll if you have just a few freezes per month.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] mko000:
Yesterday, instead of wearing a pair of jeans as usual, I wore a pair of cloth pants. Naturally, it is a very thin material compared to jeans.

I had a lot of freezes where only a hard reset helped while having the phone in my pocket. With the jeans I had them every few days at the most. So I guess it does have to do with how much the screen is touched while off.

I only have doubletap2wake enabled and I am running AOKP (whitehawkx build) with _motley's kernel.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] 3dawg:
Screen frequently becomes unresponsive after a call/ answering a call and the sides of the screen seem to stop responding to touch after using this module for a while. CM with Trinity kernel. Not complaining, just chiming in.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Foxnov1990:
Experiencing quite a lot of freezes. But I doubt that it's (entirely) ROM related.

Seeing as I've been running Rooted stock ROM for a couple months now without external kernel to start with. (no app either)

Then flashed Franco kernel r110 + TouchControl: no issues for approx 2 weeks.

Flashed r111 (and up, r121 now) and getting around 1-2 freezes an hour.

-------

Decided to test it, back to r110, no freezes for 2 days straight. Flashed r121 yesterday, first half hour, frozen (needed reboot).

---------

So basically my thought is that it is kernel related (maybe ROM too but can't say that as I'm sticking to stock)

[edit] As for in call that the screen stays black, has been said so many times but same goes here. Uninstalled the app, no more issues. Ofc Tasker could provide that workaround
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] NYZack:
I had a very similar experience. Using stock and Franco 110/M1 I had no freezes. Messed around with some other kernels and then went to Franco 111, and I had 3 freezes in a few hours. Back on Franco M1 without freezes for days. Again, this has been with stock ROM.
