I've purchased the pro app and I'm testing in a Galaxy S2 i9100.

I tested the sensor and I found out its range its pretty short, so all the test commented after this line are doing with the hand really close to the sensor.

My impression is that this works randomly. I can repeat the same moviment 10 times in a row. 6 of them it works and suddently it doesnt for 2, but then works for the other 2.

I don't understand the logic of the "double swipe" movement. The 'delay' is the window time that it waits for after reading the first swipe? then if I put it to 500, it means that it waits 0,5s for a second swipe or it does the primary action, right? But doing like the test before, repeating 10 double-swipes in sequence, a get like 1,1,1,1,2,1,2,3,1,1,2 or so combinations, while:

1 - double swipe, and the second swipe is read really fast

2 - normal swipe, even if the second swipe came before 0,5s after the first one, it was like it didnt read it and so did a normal one

3- not even a normal swipe, nothing.

Can you please add some kind of sensor testing into the app? to see if the sensor on the machine is slow/fast and to tell the user if it is doing good or not given the delay parameters..

Also, the app works on the Gallery app, but not on the Camera app after you swipe right and are into the photo gallery. Could you add swipe reading too, please?

Keep up the good work, but this needs a little polish :P

Working great on my phone :highfive:

Please make "quick glance" image better. I mean icons are too big and the resolution is not that good. Please make it look HD :D
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
There is already a sensor testing funktion under "sensor settings" wich even shows you the delay times of ur swipes...

For the camera-gallery, have u checked the "pause in camera" ? If so, try with unchecked then it should work
[Android Apps and Games] NexusGTS:
how do you uninstall this app ?
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
U have to go to administrator settings and remove it from there first, then u can uninstall like normal.

But why would u do that? ;)
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
The Admin funktion is kind of an android security function (app needs admin rights for lock ur phone)

Take a look in Android settings>>security>>Device administrator

Questioning why wasn't meant serious, sry

Dear forgin,

I installed 1.3.5 on my s5830i. Unfortunately, lock/unlock screen only works when the phone is connected to the charger.

Though, I can open apps with single and double swap, but auto answer has never worked for me.

I request you to guide me to get this amazing app work on my phone.

P.S. I am currently running ACE CREAM, custom ROM.

I would buy this app but remove internet access! So many permissions! I understand but you don't need the internet access in my phone, thank you for understanding

Not installing
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
Nothin bad here, dev added some adds. Thats the only use for internet acces in this app... if u buy, there should be no adds and of course no intrnet usage
[Android Apps and Games] maysider:
Ok, there is no full internet access, thank you!

Why don't you use TSP hovering?

It's here: phone call code *#0*# and choose TSP hovering

It's a real touchless display with sgs4!

What do you think?
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
You're welcome but pls hit thx button ;)

Not everybody has a sgs4...... :(
[Android Apps and Games] maysider:
Not everybody has an IR blaster but there is a lot of apps just for sgs4 or HTC one....because these people are willing to pay more

Just imagine.... 20 mil of sgs4 users :)

That would be a lot of money....

But this is for all the people without a sgs4

sorry being for the time passed..i am very very bussy with my job practice from highschool...ehhhhmmm seems something about battery saver or something like that for when the phone is with screen off? and thats why it works when connected to charger i guess....and auto answer hmmm...i should investigate it more, i have some other options to do the trick that i should try too.

IR blaster? whats that? anyway, sorry being so "aussent" all these days, i am very ****ing bussy with this practice in a little company (of course it is not paid, its for ending my 2 years programming studies and this practice are not paid, i work for free hehehe xD) i will try to work hard on the app this week i swear!
[Android Apps and Games] treb88:
Tried your app, and I really like it. Just an idea if it is possible. When trying to unlock phone using the wave twice, when the phone is off the proximity sensor is always turned on right?? What if, if possible when using that option when the screen is off the proximity sensor will also turned off then to turn it on we will gonna shake it first to turn on the proximity sensor then wave twice to unlock phone. Is it possible?? it would be nice in order for the proximity will not always on using unlock screen using wave twice option. Thanks a lot for this amazing app.
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
I think he means a infrared transmitter like in a remote control...

No need to be sry for livin ur live man, at least u can probably learn something and make contacts for future in that practice, i hope

So don't streß urself ;)

Great work developer.. good and works flawless in s3 4.4.2 glance s4

request... if I could switch screen off would be great. also contacts scroll similar to browser scroll

looking for it
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
If u are root, screen off should be available in settings for hover hold or do u mean change the gesture for doing that?

For Contacts scroll, dev is adding new features all the time (btw, thanks to u forgin) so i think it's just a matter of time till we can scoll thru any lists...

Any Help Would Be Appreciated!

Thank You.
[Android Apps and Games] Okluzhion:
Wait... this app doesn't necessarily require root, no? >.> It does require administration rights, though, if you want to use hover hold to turn off screen.

[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
It should prompt if u use cotntrols in gallery or browser for the first time after u activated the option in settings

Try to update su library and check if its maybe allready in there and forbidden (may u hit the deny button by accident)

Oh and which phone and Rom are u running?

---------- Post added at 03:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 PM ----------

Yep that's right, administration rights are only for hover hold to turn screen off.... but the idea is good... maybe it causes trouble if it has no admin rights... dunno

Request

Hello. Thanks a lot for developing this application. However, I only had one request to make. Would it be possible for you, to make quick-glance exactly like it is found on the galaxy S-4. I mean, when you wave over the S-4, the quick-glance feature has a cool coloured animation with bubbles, I think. Thanking you once more for your help.

Working awesome in my Xperia V

In my opinion the previous app slide option should have work vice versa as forward n backward.
[Android Apps and Games] DJMaj07:
I am using the one swipe to show lock screen in combination with hover hold to lock phone. I've noticed whenever I swipe to show the lock screen and input my pattern, the phone unlocks but then relocks within seconds. Only happens when I've used the swipe to display the lock screen instead of pressing a button. Anyone else experience this? Any fix?
[Android Apps and Games] Okluzhion:
Yes. If you use swipe once for lockscreen preview, the screen will be turned off in a couple of seconds, even if you unlock the phone. However, this behavior wasn't present in earlier versions. In my opinion, the way it used to be was far more convenient and less annoying.

Beside that, for some reason swipe twice to unlock is very slow to respond (could be more than 15 seconds), and sometimes it doesn't respond at all. Also, the sensitivity is weird as well. Sometimes it will recognize the movement when I accidentally move my hand over the phone at 30+ cm, but when it's just couple of centimetres above the sensor, the sensitivity seems to be very low. I did sensor test in app, and everything seems okay there. But when it comes to unlocking the phone, the story is a bit different.

Sent from my Xperia Z
[Android Apps and Games] DJMaj07:
Glad to see I'm not alone. Are you aware of any fix or will we have to wait for the dev to take care of it?

Interesting, I haven't had any problem like that while using the swipe twice to unlock. Perhaps take a look at your sensor options and adjust the time? Not sure if that will help but worth a shot. As for sensitivity, I haven't had any issues but then again it's pretty subjective for me.
[Android Apps and Games] Okluzhion:
[MENTION=4401434]DJMaj07[/MENTION] unfortunately, I don't know of any workaround. We'll have to wait for the dev to look into it.

I've tried everything, but it's still hit and miss for me. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

[Android Apps and Games] DJMaj07:
I emailed him earlier about a different issue I was having and he was very quick with a helpful response. I'll email him again and see if he can look into it when he has time.

Hmm. Might have to do with your phone and its proximity sensor, or maybe your ROM and its deep sleep settings. Hopefully it's the latter so you can fix it!
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
Sorry all for being so away...i promised an update for last week and couldnt...i am so bussy with my job practice....almost have no time to sleep xDDDDD but fortunatelly yesterday i started hard on it and improved the quickglance appearance, its much cooler now. I am improving the settings layout adding options to choose what slide do what (will slowly add them step by steps) also adding options for quickglance settings like hour/date format.

i will release a version this weekend with whatever i get finished and so on for every weekend. so it get a little more active.

about screen locking after a few secs.. i will test it and try to find whats going on.

nice work bro it works with my tipo dual rooted...

Slide Direction?

Thanks for a great app.

Is there any chance you could detect the slide direction (using the proximity sensors)? I know there was some comments on this before, where it was suggested that it is not possible as most phones have a single sensor. However, this would be a really useful addition for those phones that do have the sensors.

Many thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] cd69:
I have to say that this app has been great. But the battery life is reduced by 30%.i know the sensors are on all the time and it's not the apps fault. Anywho appreciate the hard work and hopefully we have a battery friendly solution soon if possible

[Android Apps and Games] pejakovic1:
I AM SPEECHLESS ABOUT THE LAST VERSION!!! PERFECT!!! Tilt function is sooooo awesome on s3!!!
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
Damned man is google really that slow or haven't u uploaded the new version to playstore yet?

Anyway i took xda version for now.

Here's my feedback

New menu looks really nice and organised and tilt funktion is cool too, but a little slow for me, takes about one sec to change screens.

And when i lock my phone and unlock it again tilt funktion stops to work, it's even unchecked in ur app

And i have some problems with unlocking and quickglance: it's luck if unlock with two slides works, mostly it doesn't work

And quickglance is really slow now.... but new pic is nice

Can't control mxplayer (video player) anymore

And app crashes randomly....
[Android Apps and Games] smar:
Disable for specific apps

I have hover enabled to turn off the phone. I noticed today whilst using Viber that the phone was turned off whenever I had the phone by my ear and required the usual power button or home key plus swipe to turn back on (i.e. it wasn't just the normal screen off when holding up against one's ear).

Any chance to filter for this?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
didnt uploaded yest, wanted to do some tests first.

those problems didnt happen in previous versions?
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
hmm yay...this happens because viber uses voip not a common call...hmm i think best bet is to add a blacklist of apps to make hovering control pauses when they are in foreground.
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
mxplayer...did you set the music or video player in settings?
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
Had none of these issues in previous version

I set both since there is an option for both....

Didn't tried with set only one of them

Oh and just saw when i open option to set music player there is written "choose video player app" on top

Maybe something is messed up there?
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
about that video player text its ok, just a little misstext, about music not working...i think i messed it a little xD i am working on it right now...i might turn it back to previous code for music control (deleting the music player chooser) until i fix it
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
Ah ok

But music works, it's video that doesn't
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
mxplayer ?? hmm i think i have just tested it and worked :S could you choose it again in settings?

is the video playing in landscape? is pause when landscape set? i encountered that problem, when vid is landscape it stops working because of pause when landscape
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
Ok false alarm....

In settings mxplayer is there twice, just took the other one then before and now it works fine.

Just a question, why is it there twice? Same thing with nova launcher in gesture settings
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
well...the list is populated with activities that accept media buttons intents....that means mxplayer has 2 activities for this...but for any reason just 1 is the good one :S i will investigate this in future.
[Android Apps and Games] MSTRoyal:
Ok thx
[Android Apps and Games] smar:
Would be great if you could add that. Another option that might be useful is if we could select the number of slides for QuickGlance activation, as at the moment I'm finding that it keeps coming on accidentally throughout the day whilst holding the phone in my hand etc.

Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
about quickglance, may be i could add a check if phone is horizontall position (like in a table)? or set it to not show if the phone is moving too much?
[Android Apps and Games] smar:
Having used Samsung's "horizontal only" quickglance, personally I find the fact that on your app quickglance works without requiring the phone to be horizontal to be quite useful as I use the phone in a dock at night and in the car dock - its much easier to wave at the phone as opposed to trying to find the buttons to turn it on whilst docked! In terms of detecting movement etc, would this not impact battery? However, as the proximity sensor is always on, might it work better if we could set the number of swipes to say 2 or 3 (swipe right, then left, then right if we can detect direction)? That way, there is reduced likelihood of the proximity sensor registering an accidental quickglance request.
[Android Apps and Games] forgin:
found the bug on music controls...fixed and uploading new version here and google play. 1.3.7

By the way, the file is supposed to be in Unicode UTF-8, so there shouldn't be any problem with special characters... I'm just starting to develop for Android but I'd think that IS enough...?

EDIT2:

The amount of apparently unused strings seems... disturbing

Yeah...there are some unused at first sight but there are not used code where i test things...anyway cleaning unused strings is not priority now. I did the spanish translation as i am spanish ^^

Hey all!!

while making updates to hovering controls, i started a little new project just today, to work on it while not on other things, its not big project but it is usefull for me xD

the project consist in:

you have your phone with whatsapp at home, you are in your computer....both devices connected to same network.

so, you recieve a whatsapp msg...and its shown in your computer! and also you can reply it back!!

you get the msg on your phone and this will send it to your pc too.

what do you think? i didnt find any tool like this...all i found is "create a new number bla bla bla" anyone willing to test this in near future?

Please remove the full-screen adds, because it's very annoying when all 15 minutes there is an add opening. Often you are tapping than on the add instead of the area where you wanted to tap before.

Otherwise I will have to unis tall the app, because it's much to intrusive :(
