Unfortunately it is not working on my device. I'm using the Xperia S with MIUI.

I can test the pie as long as the 'Pie Control' app is opened, but after closing it the pie doesn't appear any longer.

In logcat a failure appears appears every time after closing 'Pie Control'

works perfect on Desire with GB 2.3.7 EuroSkank ... fast and highly customizable ... great job!!
[Android Apps and Games] mmarta:
Good! Works perfect on Xperia S with CM10! Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Thanks. I'll take a look. Btw could you send me the whole logcat as a file right after boot up and opening the app? That would help a lot. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Novastylez:
I think it is a ROM problem, as MIUI is only a port. I tested LMT (the other pie app) and it is not working either. The same MDP errors are appearing in logcat, so I think you can't help. Propably it's a kernel issue.

not working on Acer A700

Hi, thanks for this awesome job and thanks for giving it freely for XDA.

but PIE control doesn't work on my tablet (ACER A700 rooted,CWM and CM 10.1.2) :(

it ask me about root permission, it's only possible to use the home button.

the PIE included in CM (less complete than yours) work without problems, even with bottom control ;)

Bad luck for me
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Did you give it SuperUser permissions? Otherwise it won't work.

the settings are very laggy and slow, and the pie doesnt appears
[Android Apps and Games] Tunderpimp:
Anyway I could get this to appear from the bottom?
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Can you give a few more details as to what is not working?

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Yes, please wait for the next update. I'll add an option for that. :)
[Android Apps and Games] souljaboy:
There is app for it in market that can do it. It would be very useful if this app also had it, so we don't have to install/buy it too.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1535740

Its a feature of this app, with old trial version of it you can do it for free.

Great work!

I'm using it on my HTC One and I'm really happy with it.The built-in hold-home-button-to-access-menu-method didn't work reliably (about 50% of my attemps to open the menu threw me back to my homescreeninstead of showing the menu :mad:) so it's great to have a fully working method now without having that huge three-dot-menu button on the screen.

There's a short delay of about 1 or 2 seconds between pressing the menu button and showing the menu itself but that's not a big problem.

The only thing I would like the have is an option to hide controls I don't need. For me home, back and menu would be enough I guess.

Again, thanks for this great app! Really like it :good:

I will add that feature too. You can select the options that you like from now.

wow! nice work! :good:

the home button of my galaxy s2 isn't working so good lastly...

so, with this app I can press a virtual home button

thanks! ;)
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
You are welcome. :)
[Android Apps and Games] meydon:
Hi,thanks for the app.

I currently have an issue with it.

There's a delay before the back and menu button responds unlike the home button.I'm thinking its because of the root access needed for those two buttons in particular. Works flawlessly apart from that. And it would be nice if you could please add recent apps key.thanks
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Hello.

There is nothing to be done about the delay since the system needs to register the Key Events from an external app. I would however look into the matter. The delay may be reduced if it is installed as a system app but I'm not so sure about it. I'll take a look.

Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] VIPOA:
:D

Hi :D

I love your app and it's the best pie app I've tried!

But i would recommend two things:

1. Add a recents button.

2. Enable bottom edge trigger.

Thanks for your awesome app!!!!!
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Bottom trigger and even more features coming with next update!
[Android Apps and Games] VIPOA:
Awesome!

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] meydon:
Okay, I would check the response again after installing it as a system app. Would report back. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] 11Zero4:
Great app

Bought it from playstore a few minutes ago and I love it. Works on both my SG2 and Asus Me172v. Cant wait for some nice improvements. :good:
[Android Apps and Games] Android Cowboy:
I actually paid for the app through Play Store but couldn't get it to work on my Sprint GS3. I have root and enable pie but would not show up. Any suggestions.
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Did you give it permissions? Check once if it is allowed to have root access in the SuperUser app. I did test it on S3 and it worked fine. Please report back.
[Android Apps and Games] meydon:
I installed it as a system app and the delay reduces as you've predicted but not enough to be unnoticed... Takes like 6/7 seconds before registering hits when installed as user and now it takes 4/5 seconds when in system position.

Don't know if the accessibility option can be used instead of root, it might make it faster and also it would serve well for people who can't afford to root. :D

Thanks again for your effort.

Thanks for the app works flawlessly

Hi,

looks like a pretty good thing,,,, but i can't get it to work! :( I can see the bars, i can touch them, it vibrates.... and than.. nothing. One time i had a short blue flicker and than again nothing. Superuserpermission is given. Maybe not working with CM 10.1? Any idea? You can see my configuration from signature.

[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Accessibilty Option could have been used but only for ICS+ devices since GB would still need root to carry out options like accessing menu and back keys. Its pretty uncomfortable to let 2 services run in background when it can be done with only one. Not to mention the RAM consumption and bloating the app. But I'll see what I can do about it.
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
It may be a problem with your ROM since it runs perfect on PAC 4.3. Can you attach your logcat?
[Android Apps and Games] Bitman64:
Sure,

I took two. The first one includes the installation and the second one some minutes later. Funny thing: Atm sometimes it works and sometimes it is hooked.... I tried it with thicker bars, but it's the same. If it poduces nothing than there is an enormous lag and the complete phone isn't answering to nothing for 3 or 4 seconds. But if it works, everything is fine. Cool thing!

[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Thanks, I'll take a look. It maybe a problem with your rom since it messes up with MIUI too. But I'll release an update which can fix it.

I would have put up an update by now but I have my exams going on. :p

Update will come in a couple of days.

Thanks.

[Android Apps and Games] Davirus849:
Really amazing app and works perfect. My complain is about the lack of recent apps button or the ability to customize the functions. There are some other functions like... volume control and access to Google play store but not recent apps?

That's my only complaint, everything else is perfect and works so far without any crash or problems, really responsive.
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Recent button does not have a dedicated button for GB. Its only there for above ICS, hence I did not include it.

But a lot of people are asking for it, so I will add it in the next update. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] CrazyQuiz:
It sounds interesting!

Thanks for your work, but I wouldn't say first time ever since LMT app has been around since 2011 I think. That's how it came to paranadroid rom, only LMT has much more features and gesture control. I've been using it for like a year with zero bugs or issues.

Yes, you can't compare a new app (in developing) with another that have one year old or more :s, be patient I'm sure that the dev make one of the best app :eek:;)

Send from a far far away land using a couple
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Hello.

LMT is a great app. But it doesn't mean that only a single app can exist for something. That would mean all of us using the same phone with the same launcher with the same apps sitting on the same brand of sofa.

This is just the first version. I can release small updates any day but that would be inconvenient. The next update itself will be a big one with a lot of added features. Please be patient. Thank you.

Yes, I will definitely add more features. Thank you. :)
[Android Apps and Games] kolyan:
LMT is still in development, its been so since 2011. Its on 39th version now in different sub forum.

Yes of course. Sorry to even bring this up. I was just pointing out to 1st post "first time ever"......that's all :)
[Android Apps and Games] multifearz261:
Thank for your work :D

Can you add "Recently App" button?
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Yes, it will be there in the next update. :)
[Android Apps and Games] guachine:
It would be great if users can select buttons they want to show in pie, in example y don't use very often menu button, and i would prefer to have lockscreen button.

I guess this an obvious suggestion for next updates, don't know if anaybody mentioned before.

Great job, this app makes my day! I have a Note 2 and sometimes is difficult to manage it just with one hand, your app willmeke it easier.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
This has been added too. In fact, you can even choose to add any app to your pie. :D

I will release update soon. I'm getting a bit late coz of my exams and app needs a bit cleaning to remove useless code. Most probably I will update it by this week. :)
[Android Apps and Games] rathian:
Hi EatHeat, i rarely post or comment on any DEV related threads (unless its to help others)...

just a little suggestion for you to make this app better and cleaner for users across different platforms:

1. Enable "Recent Task" by default, but under options create a checkbox for those who are below ICS to uncheck

2. Alternatively, do a version check (via SDK level in build.prop) and enable the right features for different version users

3. It would be interesting to add a power option (reboot, shutdown, etc), and you may consider having tier 2 buttons too

4. I think trying to fully recreate PA's pie control with the clock is dumb, as all phones/tablets have working clocks at the top of the status bar (unless hidden) and there is no need to replicate a functionality that is already there...

just my two cents... :) but great job on first release, tiny bit of lag there in the menu button, but overall good app (will recommend and download it on my gf's note 2, i'm using it on my note 8 stock 4.2.2)...
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Thanks for your suggestions. I didn't get what you meant by the tier 2 buttons but I'll add the Recent Tasks in the next update.

The Screen Off option is already there, but I'll see about the shut down option too.

Thank you.
[Android Apps and Games] x-dira:
can u add button home long press (recent apps for GB) !

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
That is not possible since every device has its own "Recent Apps" app. But I can try to add a different window showing them independent of the device. I'll see what I can do.
[Android Apps and Games] Android Cowboy:
It does have permissions and shows up in Superuser app. I do also see the transparent bar on the sides once I enable it but nothing shows up when swiping on that side.
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Can you tell me the ROM you are using and attach the logcat?
[Android Apps and Games] Android Cowboy:
Running CM 10.2 9/27 nightly. Will have to get the logcat for you later.

[Android Apps and Games] ASepi:
please add one more feature

Hello!

Thanks for your work and thanks for making this free for xda members!

Still I would like to see one more feature in this app, to make it perfect: the "task switcher" button...I use it a lot!

In my vision the perfect button layout for pie controls is (from left to right or bottom to top): back/home/task (big buttons)/menu (smaller button) and search (smaller button). The last two should be optional...

I love the design of your PIE!

I am using GNexus 4
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Yes, I'll add it in the next update. :)
[Android Apps and Games] dan83m:

Thanks for the info! I am actually using LMT but I liked this app cause it's simpler, lighter and it's only PIE...and PIE it's all I need! :) Still I'm missing the task button to swhitch over to it... :(
[Android Apps and Games] sharksfan7:
Thanks for offering this app here. I've been using it on my Nexus 10 for about a week and it works great. But there are a few things that I've come across that I'm curious about. Not sure if you'd consider them bugs or just limitations of the app.

First, there are a few apps that I use where the 3dot menu trigger doesn't work; Google Now/Search, Evernote, and the app drawer in Apex Launcher are ones that I can remember right now.

Second, I use multiple users on my N10. Pie control works great for the primary user account, but it won't install in the secondary user account. I've enabled multi-user support in SuperSU, but when I try to install it in the secondary user account it fails every time. Is there a reason for this or a way to force it to install for the secondary user? I use this together with an Xposed module that hides the navbar. But it hides it for all the users. So without the Pie controls there's no way to navigate out of an app. I need to deactivate the module & reboot to bring back the nav bar if I want to switch users.

Lastly, have you been able to get the vibration setting to stick after rebooting? This was mentioned earlier in this thread but there was no mention if a fix will be in the next update.

Thanks again for this great app. Look forward to updates and more customization options.
[Android Apps and Games] rathian:
Just one more feature to request: Screenshot button
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
The menu button works if the physical menu button could make it work. It is not a bug. Maybe its something to do with the app itself.

Didn't know about that multi user thing, but I'll take a look.

And yes, the vibration setting is fixed.

I'm having a bit of delay in updating it coz of my exams and another app that I'm working on. Its another bug fix for GB users. As soon as its fixed, I'll push the update.

Thank you.

does it work only on pure google ROM base or it should also work on Samsung ROM base ?

I have Crash ROM GS4, and everything seems to be working well..... except the UI is not been found anywhere no matter what I'm doing.
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
Which UI exactly?
[Android Apps and Games] ys222:
"UI" you mean which launcher ? if so, I'm referring to native Samsung operation system base on TouchWiz (from any modified rooted ROM)
[Android Apps and Games] ASepi:
UI

UI means User Interface, as far as I saw this abreviation used anywere else.

...and for EatHeat: how's "that task switcher" button coming? :P

...and smaller buttons for stuff like: menu, search, kill task, etc. :D

Sorry for beeing so demanding...

Hi is it possible the recent button call out the stock original recent menu?
[Android Apps and Games] EatHeat:
This version does not support it. Most people were asking for updates so I updated it with 3.1+ as it uses APIs missing in GB. But I will support GB again with future versions. :)

What do you mean by crash? Can you tell me your device details and a logcat?

Swipe conflicts with Google Now sometimes. So its not added. The only reason there are so many trigger options.

Shortcuts to apps has been added in this version. I will try adding the other options that you mentioned too. :)

Its possible but that needs giving the app accessibility options. I figured out not many would like to give accessbility service to this, so made the other Recent App. If people are willing, I can add the stock too but that would mean having to give the app accessibility option.
[Android Apps and Games] bpsim:
Thanks for fast reply.

Well I'm one of the people willing.

The reason I want to use stock recent menu is because I can view ram stats and swipe close the app I don't need.

I stick with your Pie Control because it's the only one can also adjust volume and my tablet don't have volume hardware key...
[Android Apps and Games] Spovik:
Thanks. I have the app shortcuts and all that working. What i was referring to were things like SoundHound ID Now, Tesla LED, those types of shortcuts.
[Android Apps and Games] sharksfan7:
Thanks for the update. Really like being able to customize the slices to suit my needs. I spent a while setting it up before I even noticed I can add app shortcuts. And thanks for resolving the multi-user issue. That really helps a lot.

A couple of observations after poking around with it for a couple of hours:

* The haptic feedback setting still doesn't stick after a reboot. Well, the setting stays the same but it will still vibrate until I go into the menu once, even though I have it set not to vibrate. Once I enter the menu it stops vibrating until the next reboot.

*In the v1.0, when I had "Keep In Memory" checked, it showed in the notification pane that Pie Control was running but the icon didn't appear in the status bar. Or at least it was invisible. In this version, the icon does show up in the status bar. I know it's just an aesthetic thing, but would love to be able to keep the app in memory w/o the icon showing in the status bar.

Thanks again for your work.
