Multi window bug

Hey! This works very nicely! I'm having no problems so far. However, on my stock 4.4.2 Samsung Note 3 N900W8, I've noticed that if I have Multi Window on (use two apps at the same time), the multi window tab shows on the screen when Knockr becomes active. Specifically, I turn off my screen using the power button, and a second or two later the tab pops up. I don't know if this can be prevented without turning multi window off entirely, but thought I'd bring it up. Great app!
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Not at the moment this is not possible. I currently have no plans of building in notifications.

I have thought about allowing widgets on the 'lockscreen only' option. If I do this I could also enable the tap to show the widget. This way you can choose a notifications widget to do the same thing.
[Android Apps and Games] Kevinnme:
Cool, i don't know if this is possible, but can you make an option to use the accelerometer to listen for movement (i.e. user picking up phone), and stops the touch listener and proximity sensor when the phone is lying face up on the table, say after 5 minute idle. (if proximity sensor is covered, then the accelerometer would not listen)

(i know you already can use the proximity sensor for facing down, but it could perhaps save battery when the user forget to put it face down:silly, plus it can be more convenient to the user: )
[Android Apps and Games] Ismail.A:
Thanks for this app works flawlessly on my lg g2 also donated for full version
[Android Apps and Games] XMEN1:
The app is good and much useful but needs to fix many bugs and optimize code including the conflicts in proximity sensor during a call does not work well and at the end of the call the sensor is always active. Need an option to turn off during a call, etc. Tested on my S4 mini and not drain battery. unfortunately does not work with other lockscreens eg with acdisplay,dynamicnotifications etc. :good:

How to configure it

Does this work on Samsung galaxy note 10.1 2014 edition if yes tell me how to configure it

Thanking you:good:
[Android Apps and Games] ruinkhan:
Looks like another abandoned thread by developer. :( Wonderful app though
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Not abandoned. I just have no new information to give. I am trying to update knockr with some more features but ever since android l preview came out eclipse has been working correctly. Sometimes it works and other times it tells me that all my projects have errors. Just have to be patient.
[Android Apps and Games] super114:
Did you not see him answering questions 3 days before your post? lol
[Android Apps and Games] h4rdXc0r3:
Thanks heaps! Been looking for something like this. Lovin' it.. :)

I just wanted to request if the drop down swipe for notifications during lock state can be disabled. :D

Thank yoü! :cool:
[Android Apps and Games] NandishV:
Didn't need to hate man

Just searched it and seems like S4 does have an AMOLED display so I'm confused but no need to flame me bruh
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
amOLED :)
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Just published a new update and it is live now. This update addresses bugs with the lockscreen, power management and knockr everywhere that was causing the app to crash.

Also in this update I included Tasker integration. You can turn the "off"/black screen on or off. You can also toggle the screen sleep, the same way the power management system in Knockr does. I have done limited testing on this but do know everything functions correctly. If you decide to use Tasker to control Knockr please switch Knockr off from the apps settings and if you use the toggle feature and don't want Knockr to use the proximity sensor to toggle please uncheck the power management in the apps settings.

Let me know if there is any other features you would like me to Integrate into Tasker.

The next update I will be trying to improve the settings and gesture selection screens so they load faster.
[Android Apps and Games] XMEN1:
Hi, why you do not added an option to disable during the call, the tests I've done the problem is at the end of calls sometimes the sensor does not turn off even in pocket...Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
I addressed this issue in a previous update. You have to check screen locked in the settings and Knockr will only activate when you lock the screen. If that option doesn't work try figuring something to suit your needs with Tasker.
[Android Apps and Games] XMEN1:
I understand but even with this option checked sometimes the sensor does not turn off unfortunately...thanks anyway good app :good:
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Still hope for knock code :-X And this to be an xposed module... process gets killed from time to time
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Uploaded a new version last night and it should be available now. This update includes a few bug fixes, a changed UI and a separate page for Knockr Everywhere settings.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Last time I used the app I recognised that you can still pull down statusbar, change volume etc when screen is "off"

Can you fix that? :)

I have HTC Desire 816 and unfortunately Battery drain was crazy while using this app :(
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Htc desire 816 has an LCD screen. The always listening feature is for OLED screens only. You can however select lockscreen only and have Knockr as ur lockscreen.
[Android Apps and Games] AndroidState:
Nice app.

How much percantage of battery will this take approximately?
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
UPDATE: Just uploaded an update to Knockr. This update has some minor stability fixes mainly for Android Lollipop. Also I updated the colors of the app to give it some splash. I also changed the camera button on the lock screen to make it look like a floating action button. The button utilizes the palette class to pull colors out of your wallpaper and apply them to the icon and background. Also on Android Lollipop the translucent nav bar didn't look right so I use the palette class to change the color of the nav bar.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
I often asked it I know, but please can you add knock code mate? [emoji17]
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
This is on the to do list I just have to decide what the best way to implement it is. The way I'm thinking of doing it is to have a choice of using the gestures or knock code (where different codes act like the different gestures). This way will take a complete rebuild of the entire app to implement properly and I just have to find the time to do it as well as do testing to find the best way of implementing knock code itself.
[Android Apps and Games] kryz70fr:
anyway to add action like next track or previous tracks on slide instead of an application ?
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
So I have started implementing a knock code. I am going to have it in addition to the gestures instead of making users choose. The only thing though is it may interfere with the double tap gesture. So I wanted to get user input into how I should fix this problem.

I will have 4 quadrants for knocks to be inputed. The first solution to avoid the double tap would be to make the second knock have to be in a different quadrant. The other would be to let the user know that having the first 2 knocks in the same quadrant may interfere with the double tap gesture and to avoid it they should choose 'nothing' for the double tap.

I feel the first way is taking away from the user but insuring there is no confusion and the second way is allowing the user do what they want but there may be confusion if they don't read.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Hmmm I would like it more to have either knockcode to wakeup or gestures. Or maybe there could be a choice.

also you can still pull the status bar down when screen is "off" would be cool to have this fixed.

And, the capacitive buttons on my device always flash one time (to show knockr is activated?) Is it possible to turn this off?

Also I have a very special question:

Knockr disables the LED. If it's not possible to fix this, could you include another way to make the user see there are notifications? I thought that there could be a white (or whatever color the LED would have in the app that got the notification) line at the top flashing every 10/15/30/60 seconds (or whatever)
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
I am going to do this after all. While doing some prelim testing it is much more accurate to just do it this way.

Will do this maybe in next update or the one after

No this is a hardware specific issue and there are no public methods that aren't already included in Knockr to change this

There is no way to turn the notification light on while Knockr is running since the screen is active.

I thought about doing your suggestion when I first published Knockr but haven't looked into it further. I do want to do something either highlight a little part of the screen with the color or maybe the moto x type notification. This may be the next big change after I implement knock code.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Awesome mate :) thank you
[Android Apps and Games] TraNe15:
OMG! I was all about battery drain but it's working great...
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Just uploaded new update. This one includes Knocks and some code optimizations. Knocks are limited to 3 unless a donation is made. Unfortunately when I first created the app I didn't implement a way to track donations so anyone who made a donation previously will have to make another to unlock unlimited Knocks. I will reimburse anyone who previously made a donation if they send me an email at angsTechnology@gmail.com with their order number. And as I am typing this I realized I forgot to implement a way to track donations over multiple devices, so look for an update later this week to fix that.
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
Waiting for the update to show up :)

Just to clarify, i can donate on new version to unlock knocks?

AMAZING! I had to recognise that i need to change settings for knock code :D

Two suggestions:

1. If possible, option to change the height (so that it is not only the lower part of the lock screen

2. Dark theme for the app

Great update :) i will donate when you answered to my first question :P
[Android Apps and Games] xPr0metheus:
I know this question is stupid but is there a possibility to send the phone to deep sleep whole knockr is running?
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Just uploaded another update. This one has a tutorial like opening for first time users to help them choose how to use Knockr. This will show up the first time you open the new update and current users can just click the skip button. I also found a bug that was giving everyone unlimited Knocks and fixed this. I refunded everyone who donated since Knocks was first implemented because the fix for that bug wouldn't recognize their donations. If anyone who donated before the Knock update wants a refund they just have to email me with their order number.

I also added some activity transitions for Lollipop devices and added the ability to turn off device administrator when turning off Knockr Everywhere. I don't know why I didn't do that earlier I just figured it couldn't be done cause every app I have used doesn't give the ability to turn off device admin.
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Not sure what exactly ur asking for but you can use Tasker to create a widget to and set it to turn Knockr on/off
[Android Apps and Games] daltonhrrll:
Not going to lie this is an awesome app but you need to block the home button because on my s5 active the home button wakes the phone so if I press it it just bypasses the black screen. Ik it's not actually waking the device since the device is already awake but maybe block the home button while knockr is active or displaying the black screen. Other then that though this app is sick lol I actually made a tap to unlock in tasker but it didn't have the other gestures. Also could you add shortcut support to the gestures

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:53 PM ----------

Also what kind of battery consumption are you all seeing from running this
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Uploaded a new update. This one adds Media Controls for devices running Lollipop. It may not work with all media apps because they haven't put the Lollipop media controls into their apps or in some cases haven't implemented them correctly. I have tested it with Google Play Music and Youtube, it works perfectly. With Pandora it works correctly unless you change the station in which case Pandora stops sending the song metadata so Knockr wont display the title or album art. Tune In radio it wont play/pause the media which is probably because Tune In doesn't use the public api provided by Android to play/pause media. Spotify works correctly but sometimes album art isn't sent to Knockr. I have also tested BubbleUPnP with it and that works correctly.

I also fixed a problem when Knockr Everywhere was hiding in Landscape and not reshowing when going back to Portrait.

ONE TAP

Great app,but please remove one tap to activate screen.
[Android Apps and Games] fran0:
request

I noticed that when I change /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness to 0 my screen turns off but touch is still active, is it possible to make knockr change brightness to 0 and then restore it to its previous value?

If so knock may work on some led screen as well.
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
It is possible but would still use to much battery on LCD screen and in previous tests doing it sometimes the brightness didn't change back.
[Android Apps and Games] mikus92:
Great app

Hi,

I'm using this great app but only the Knockr Everywhere mode (lockscreen by 2 tap)

I have an issue : it's impossible to delete the default knocks code (1,2,3,4 for unlock screen). When i delete it the code is active at each app reboot and the app ask me the knocks code when I want lock the screen by 2 taps...

An idea?

Thx
[Android Apps and Games] aritraroy:
Nice idea, good implementation. Good to see to innovation coming up. :)
[Android Apps and Games] soielbueno:
Great app congratulations
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
Do you mean the knockr lock screen keeps showing up or the knockr everywhere screen keeps showing up?

The 1,2,3,4 knock will automatically set itself if no other knock is setup as a safe guard.
[Android Apps and Games] mikus92:
Hi Acela1230,

Knockr Everywhere works perfectly but when i do the double tap on the transparent button instantly knock 1,2,3,4 screen appears for entering the code. This is often but randomly and not systematic (a transparent dark screen with a cross on the top left)

I would like to deactivate knock 1,2,3,4 but it's impossible. When I delete it from settings it automatically set in app....

I post screenshots of my settings.

Thx for ur help ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Acela1230:
You can't delete the 1, 2, 3, 4 knock if no other knock is set, as I said before it is a safe guard.

The transparent black screen is Knockr Everywhere and it is showing up probably because only a single tap is being detected and not a double tap. The taps are detected by android and has nothing to do with my actual code.

To make things easier you could just long click instead of double tapping.
[Android Apps and Games] mikus92:
OK thanks for your help.

I 'll follow your advice about the long click...
[Android Apps and Games] deagle-lim:
hi Acela1230

im new to this app

im using note2 n7100 and if im not mistaken it's OLED screen (am i right ?)

i set my screen timeout to "2mins"

set my screen lock to "none" means no pattern no pin no swipe etc

and i use double tap as "unlock", knockr wherewhere OFF

my question is when i lock my screen with greenify or lock/unlock button and double tap to wake up my phone

i can see that my screen timeout is change into 15sec?

is this normal?

also when my phone turn into black screen i realized that i can "draw" my screen may i know how to turn this off because i used to hold my phone and walk, not putting it into my pocket

also i have a suggestion is add blacklist app so that in certain app (play games or reading some notes/news/fb?) knockr will be turn off temporary because 15secs is too short
[Android Apps and Games] hackerpower:
Double tap to wake only turns on black screen, lock screen doesn't appear.

Can draw swipes but lock screen doesn't appear.

What am i doing wrong?

Hi! Great work, i love the feature! And if i keep my s6 face down it s also power efficient! But i found what i could call a bug, for no reason sometimes the phone switch the screen on time before off to 1 sec and it Can be annoying! Thanks again for the great app! Keep up the good work!

Hey the link is not working. Where can I get this app?:confused:
[Android Apps and Games] Zheen:
Very Nice

The idea is very cool, but obviously there are some issues. For example, when this app is running the screen is not turned off, it's turned on but it shows a black screen. And the problem with this is that the LED notification light never turns on because the screen is turned on.
[Android Apps and Games] hjmrox:
nice idea

This app is a great idea. !! Just checking. Will this stop the CPU from going to deep sleep ? Thanks !!
[Android Apps and Games] PeterImmel:
same for Moto G
[Android Apps and Games] Kurotsuchi:
really awesome app, I tested it on S4 GT-I9500.

at first it worked perfect, then after that, whenever I was swiping at all sides , it first shows a Black Screen ( it actually turns on the screen but the screen is black) then by second swipe it will open.

so in my case, I was swiping at any side of the screen, then the screen was on ( blackscreen) ) then in order to open the app I was swiping in the direction I want to open the app that I assigned.

another thing is that you can't turn on the screen via power button of your phone , I mean it does turn on the screen but it's black,which means by activating Knockr we'll lose the ability to unlock the phone normally.

but, this is only beta, so I will be keenly waiting for solving these issue in your future updates.

really really nice app! Thanks :)

I am loving this app but my physical power button no longer works when I use the double tap to unlock feature. I am using the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S5.
[Android Apps and Games] chachoi:
wow thank you for this, It's working on my Galaxy Note 1 which has a Super AMOLED display. I'll be observing the battery consumption. Goodbye proximity and gyroscopic sensor based apps! Just this weekend this was implemented in a cydia tweak for IOS as well so its been a good week so far :highfive:

Issues with Galaxy Note 2(GT-N7100)

I have just downloaded the app and tried the app. Everything seems to work perfectly as you described here. But as you are using OLED screens "If it is black it is turned off" theory and you are not actually locking the device, accept you are just killing the display keeping the digitizer alive for gesture the power button has become useless in order to unlocking the device. I guess that will confuse some of the people and in a moment of urgency might cause a moment of panic too. I hope you will look into this in in the coming versions of the app.

Now Case No. 2: The Proximity Sensor stays alive even if I turn off the pocket detection in the app. Is that supposed to be that way ?

Case No 3: Though I did not noticed any lag in the response of the app, it does fails to respond to my gesture inputs. In my case that is near around 50%. I believe this will be fixed too.
[Android Apps and Games] Benny Bosser:
Hey, I really like this idea!

I've only got one question: doesn't it wear out the screen pixels of they're constantly turned on?
