Access isn't granted! Turn screen off

I searched the thread and didn't find any results related to my issue....

I downloaded the apk from the OP:

Android: 4.3+

Download: Latest version

Once installed, I was able to activate the "Notifications" portion (the app directed me to my phone settings, where I checked next to AcDisplay).

However, when I select the "Turn screen off" selection, it highlights, but nothing happens.

I activated the Xposed Module and rebooted, but still cannot finish activating the app.

(Stock Rom on my Verizon Galaxy S4, running Android 4.3)

Am I missing something???

Also, is this the same version as available with in the play store?

If so, which one is it? "AcDisplay" or "AcDisplay (Depreciated)"

If not, should I install one of those instead of the apk from the OP, so that I get updates?

Update: After combing through my phone settings, I was finally able to activate the app by going to More>Security>Device administrators, where I found another location to check next to AcDisplay. When I checked this, left my phone settings and executed the app again, the "Turn screen off" notification was no longer present and I was able to finish activating the app... I am wondering if there is a bug preventing the app from auto-directing me to this menu setting?
[Android Apps and Games] Thracks:
This solved my problem!

I didn't have the AcDisplay device administrator option enabled, and NOWHERE in the app or Xposed module was this stated as a requirement.

What I meant was would there ever be a way to use the lockscreen without the persistent notification, bit thanks anyway =)
[Android Apps and Games] kevinbakon:
I went to my phone settings and turned off the notifications for the app... this seems to have removed the lockscreen notification, but not the active mode notification :(
[Android Apps and Games] Shijn:
How do I unlock straight to the app??

To view notification = Tap and hold on icon.

To move notification = Tap and hold on icon and swipe left or right.

To go into the app causing the notification = ???
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Swipe the icon and release over the text.

And dismissing notifications is a quick swipe left or right.

That's weird because it disables all notifications from being shown. System wide.

[Android Apps and Games] tv31284:
I think I'm pretty well versed with smartphones but I do have great difficulty dismissing notifications. I feel like the movement to dismiss notifications should have the ease of dismissing a notification from the notification bar since it's an ingrained system wide gesture. With the current implementation 3/4s of the time I have to try again or I accidentally open the notification. I've reverted to using to the deprecated version in the mean time. Hopefully you consider my position. I love the app otherwise. It's far better than Peek.
[Android Apps and Games] kevinbakon:
I found it weird too. All or none right is what I thought would happen... Initially both notifications were removed, but eventually the active mode one returned and hasn't gone away again

Update: I toggled the notifications back on, went to my home screen, then back into the settings to toggle it back off and both are now gone again (for now)
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Can you tap and hold the notification, then click "app-info" and uncheck and then check the notification box again?

Hi,

First of all, congratulations for this awesome app, it looks awesome !

Could you please tell me if it's possible to activate wake on of the screen only for particular notifications but not for all of them ? I mean I'd like to have my screen waking on for SMS but not for email.

Besides, does anyone have the willing of doing a quick video review of this new version ??

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] kevinbakon:
Yes, I not only find this to be the most direct way to access the phone app settings, but this method also verifies that the AcDisplay is indeed the app crating the notification.

Update: Even after "forcing" the notification off again, not only did the active mode notification return once again, but after a while the lockscreen notification also returned. This is after doing virtually nothing on my phone other than allowing it to sleep. I am going to try and "force" it to go away again by toggling on then off, then reboot my phone to see if there is a difference.

[Android Apps and Games] DalSegno:
Hi,

I can't get it to unlock to the app. If I have a notification, I can swipe the notification icon up into the information about it, and i get a vibrate, and it highlights to show I'm in the text area, but when I release it doesn't unlock, just acts as if I released it somewhere else.

edit: maybe it was just the test notification. works fine for gmail for example.
[Android Apps and Games] jpen:
This is amazing! Awesome job! There are 3 things that would make this perfect.

1. Show temperature.

2. Have a camera shortcut. Probably similar to android kit kat with it in the bottom corner.

3. Show music playing. I like having acdisplay as my lock screen but when I'm listening to music I can't see what's playing. I enjoy the KitKat lock screen full music display. So maybe somehow do the same as the stock lock screen for music or have it so if music is playing it shows the stock lockscreen.

Besides those 3 minor things it is great. Love the look and feel.
[Android Apps and Games] Neur0Nerd:
Hi, there is something that happens sometimes. It displays me to slide to the bottom the notification bar, like the first use of a smartphone or tablet.

Oh .. Thanks a lot !
[Android Apps and Games] vineshbalan:
Suggestion for peeking the notifications

Just a suggestion. Now we have the "Notification Icon" by which we can peek the notification, instead(or as an option), can any of the capacitive buttons(Eg: Home button) be used for the same?

It can be used just to peek, and maybe some combinations or gestures to do the rest.

Regards,

Vinesh

[Android Apps and Games] nmyeti:
Great app. One comment, I installed via the play store today and active mode worked for about 30 minutes. I could flip the phone over and the AC display screen would show. All of a sudden it stopped working and I can't seem to get it back. Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] K3VYNC:
Do you have "Enable when are no notifications" on?

You can find it on the active mode menu

:D
[Android Apps and Games] nmyeti:
Yes, i also sent myself a test notification to make sure that the checkbox was actually "sticking." I left the phone face down on the table. Sent the text, waited about 2 minutes after it was received and then flipped over the phone. It didn't wake up.

Granted it may be a bit much to hope that the Nexus 5 will work as well as my wife's moto x for this feature, but i'm trying to figure out why this was working and stopped. It appears to come back for a little while if i uninstall and reinstall the app, so something is happening post install to break this feature.

My settings are pretty simple, i use my wallpaper, the circle notification icon, and flip on active display. That's it.
[Android Apps and Games] desertmod1:
Do you guys only use your thumbs with your phones ?

Like even when it's on the table in front of you ? Pretty much everyone uses their index or middle finger when the phone is on the table, unless you place these fingers flat on the screen (which is just uncomfortable) you will block the view of the message box.
[Android Apps and Games] 2k4ever:
Thanks for your great app, AChep!

i use it as full lockscreen replacement and it works really well

few suggestions that could improve AcDisplay

Max Brightness option

Option to increase the font size of the notifications / custom font size option

Tasker integration - listening to a simple intent to activate and deactivate AcDisplay that can be sent by Tasker would suffice - similar to the widget you have already implemented

thanks

[Android Apps and Games] meyerweb:
Is there any function or feature that has only one app available supporting it? Most types of apps have hundreds or thousands of variations in the play store. Right now I'm using Dynamic Notifications, but it's good to have options, and competition may make both products better. (If the developer of this app is actually responsive to user concerns, that would be an improvement over DN.)

ATM, this app clearly isn't as far along as DN,, but I look forward to seeing where it, and DN, go.

But I do agree on what another member said, and I will quot

Please can we get some help on that, and then the thumbs up? I have not yet tested whether the "2" thumbs meaning only 2 notification or what.

Is it possible to get an unlimited thumb for the amount of notifications?:confused:

Great app, really! The notification LED on my One S is not customisable (two colours) and way small - so this is perfect!

I actually like that it does not replace the lockscreen (I always use pattern lock). Works out great. Still need to test if there is any problems when carrying your phone around in your pocket, but shouldn't.

UPDATE

I think I solved it. I have an app called temperature guard pro that constantly displays the battery temp as a notification. I didn't pick up on the fact that it was waking the screen because the displayed temp wasn't changing. Apparently it was sending the notification even though the temp hadn't changed. Anyhow I disabled that notification and now the device isn't constantly waking. I should have noticed it. Sorry for the post. Great app. Really enjoying it so far.
[Android Apps and Games] jackdubl:
Perhaps someone can tell me where I am going wrong with this app, because I'm failing to see the point of it. First, does the active message display more than once, because I've not yet looked at my screen within the 25 max seconds that the active notification displays, and so I have never seen it. I thought it would repeat periodically. Second, even when I see it, isn't it giving me the exact same info I get by swiping down my notification bar(I have all notification expanded by default), which takes the same or less time with roughly the same finger involvement? Thanks, hope I don't sound unpleasant. I really want to like this app but haven't figured out what the hold is about yet.

I love the new edition as is qworking great. The only thing I wanted to point out is that it is very hard to dismiss notifications by swiping them to the left. It takes a couple tries and requires 2 hands. Am I doing something wrong or can you look into it.

[Android Apps and Games] weiteck:
I would also like this option.
[Android Apps and Games] kevinbakon:
Ditto.... Despite my best efforts, the notifications come back (most often the active mode and rarely the lockscreen notification). This is after numerous attempts through the phone's app settings as well as attempting to block ongoing notifications via a third-party notification blocker. I cannot seem to figure out what triggers the return, each time. Sometimes its after the phone has been sleeping, sometimes its after a reboot and most often it returns throughout the day at some random time... I want my notification panel as clean as possible and it's quite a nuisance

Otherwise, fantastic app! Keep up the great improvements too!

[Android Apps and Games] burdo:
Awesome app!

Best app for android I've tested along with Tasker.

Just one question. I use pattern lock. I'd like NOT TO have ACd as lockscreen when there are NO notifications since I have to unlock the ACd lockscreen and then it takes me to the pattern unlock screen.

The only way I found is to disable lockscreen in ACd and wake up the screen with new notifications. The problem here is that it will show for some time, but if I turn on the screen manually ACd is gone and Im taken to the pattern unlock screen.

Anybody help?

Thanks to the dev! I'll be donating tomorrow!

PS: What does Enable shadows do ?
[Android Apps and Games] SMillerNL:
Not an option yet. Maybe it'll be added later like it is with active mode.

It enables shadows. They're very subtle but they're there behind the clock for example.

You could in theory disable them through app settings but since they are required for ensuring that the app keeps working I would advise against it.

Why do people use anything really. In my experience with a pin as lock it's quicker because I don't have to unlock first and overall it's just a more pleasant experience.

If you didn't look at it within the original timeout time you should set it as a lockscreen so that you can manually enable it or you can enable active mode for it to activate when you take it out of your pocket.
