Guys, beta version updated, try it.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Is the 1.8 beta different from the Play Store 1.8 that I just updated to? With the Play Store version the button still moves down when I dock/undock my phone.
[Android Apps and Games] c3k:
PSA: donate version is live!

Let's say thanks to this great dev:

[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I was about to upload version 1.81 to beta (which included the docking bug fix), when I promoted v1.8 to production, but I found some bugs in v1.81 which needed to be fixed before uploading. Since it was already midnight, I will be uploading the fixes today as v1.82 beta. Thanks for showing patience.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Awesome man, we appreciate your hard work and dedication!

[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Fixed! Update to v1.82 beta.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Sorry, it still moves when down an inch or so everytime I dock/undock (enter or leave desk dock mode). Should I have uninstalled the previous version first?
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
No, no need I guess there is a problem somewhere else in my program.

Actually I have never docked my phone anywhere. Neither I know how to. Moreover, I have a phone with a small screen. So I cannot spot most of the changes, unless they are big enough. Still I will Google some more to see what can I do. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Switched to Android Studio, oh my!

Just switched to Android Studio, and everything seems like from some alien planet:eek:

So, It may take sometime for my next update:silly::mad: Sorry friends... Oh my head!
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Hi. Any chances you can add a function to hide the bubble if a certain app like camera is stared and than show it again if the app is closed / in background?

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
An app exclusion list, right. It's already in //TODO and it's coming soon. I am currently working on several bug fixes. Thanks for being patient.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Updated to V1.86
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Since we now have the ongoing notification could you add an option to remove the big LAS if you move the bubble.?

Thanks ☺
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
:D ohk
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Done :)
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Thank you! :D :good: :D
[Android Apps and Games] Dhiraj:
Pl. Make the toggle button little bit brighter and if possible close to material look.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Ok, I will try.
[Android Apps and Games] t61p:
Hello. Thank you for very useful app!

May I ask if the following behavior is normal?

1. Clear recent apps list.

2. Launch app A and app B then tap LAS's bubble several times to switch between app A and app B.

3. Close app A by "Back button". Then app B becomes foreground.

4. Now, tap LAS's bubble. Then it brings home screen but not app A.

5. Tap the bubble once again brings app B. Further tapping the bubble switches app A and app B.

I don't understand why home screen appears at 4 because the option "Home screen application is excluded..." is ON.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I think there is a problem in home screen exclusion algorithm. Thanks for reporting.
[Android Apps and Games] dstormz02:
Awesome! Please keep up the good work.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Update

Version 1.91 (Beta)

# Added: Option to show/hide in notification.

# Added: Option to change color of the floater.

# Minor UI changes.﻿
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Update

Version 1.92 (Beta)

# Major bug fix for large devices.

# Alternative option for bubble or shortcut.
[Android Apps and Games] wirtzpeitz:
Love this app, especially the speed compared to the laggy built-in task switcher. However, I wish there was an option to make the floater disappear or fade away after a specified number of seconds. I want to use the floater to quickly switch back and forth between two apps (e.g., for copy/paste). I don't want it to be there when I spend a long time in the same app, e.g. when I'm reading on my phone. Just a suggestion. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] godly967:
For copying I have been using something called CopyBubble check it out.
[Android Apps and Games] t61p:
I see. I hope the problem will be eventually solved when Home screen exclusion is replaced by App exclusion list ;)

Please take Japanese translation of the Application strings.

I found that texts in notification are missing. Could you also add them to Application strings for translation?
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Do you mean the floater should appear when you switch to an app but when you don't use it for a long time it should disappear, isn't it. Good idea, but there is a problem. Android doesn't provide any way to know If user has switched to a different application and only way to determine it is continuously checking the current application, which I think will make LAS a battery hog. What do you think?

Any ways, thanks for a great suggestion.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I thought of that idea but oh it's already there :) Will try it. But I think a bubble is not the best possible way to have a clipboard manager which you don't need every time. I have a better alternative ;)
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
String updated, and for your convenience I am putting it here,

Thanks for helping me with translations.
[Android Apps and Games] t61p:
Thanks. Here is the additional translations.

<string name="notification_title">LAS を実行しています</string>
<string name="notification_text">タップして LAS バブルを表示/非表示します</string>

It seems that 1.94 beta doesn't have Japanese translations yet. Don't worry I'm not in a hurry so I just wait for next version.

You are welcome :)
[Android Apps and Games] wirtzpeitz:
I didn't realize this was technically difficult. Tasker monitors the current app without too much battery drain, but for sure there is some drain.

I find the floater most distracting when an app is in full-screen mode (like in Chrome, Kindle, Pocket, etc.). So an alternative might be to hide the floater in that situation. Does Android provide a way for LAS to know whether the current app is in full-screen mode?
[Android Apps and Games] c3k:
What about add an auto hide timeout for the button, and call the first switch from the notification panel that wake up the button too?
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I push beta versions as soon as they are finished. Translation will be added I stable releases. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I guess there is, but not sure that will work or not. I'll try. Thanks for suggestions.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Good idea. But that is going to require a whole lot of changes (lazy :P).

I would better implement an app exclusion least before that.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Hey Jim, I think the latest update fixes the dock/undock problem. Can you please check out if everything is fine or not.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Sorry pal, no difference with 1.98 beta. It still drops about an inch when I dock it and another inch when I undock it. Is there a log I can capture for you?
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Not sure if it's related or not, but maybe this will help your debugging. If I put the button on the right side of the screen, when I dock/undock the button moves down an inch AND moves to the left side of the screen.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
And this is happening when snap to edge is switched off, isn't it? If yes, then I have probably caught the problem. The app is somehow taking this as an orientation change, and then moves the floater to the new coordinates.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
No, that was with snap to edge on. With snap to edge off, if I put it on the right side, it moves down and to the left an inch or so. It still might be detecting it as an orientation change though. Sounds like you're getting closer!
[Android Apps and Games] teh_lorax:
Can someone walk me through how to have Tasker control this?
[Android Apps and Games] awakened77:
This is an excellent and useful little app, many thanks to the developer! I'd like to ask if it's possible to add an option to fix the bubble shortcut in a chosen place permanently, meaning I often swipe over it accidentally and it moves from its position. Thanks for any response and keep up the good work!
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Hi. Could you make the bubble hide when lookscreen is activated, you still can see the buble and even move it around
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Sorry for a late reply, my exams are going on.

Umm, I don't have tasker, but these things might help you

Task / Shortcut Widgets: Tasker

Extending Home Screen Shortcuts in Android with Tasker
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Thanks for suggestion, it's coming in LAS 2.0
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I am going to consider that too, thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] teh_lorax:
I know how to use Tasker. What I need is to know how to make Tasker execute LAS.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
What I understand after reading a lot is, that you have to add the LAS shortcut to your desired trigger, however since a bug the LAS shortcut could not be found by all applications, which will be fixed in the next update. Thanks for your patience.
[Android Apps and Games] umeshxda:
Feature request :

Long tapping the bubble to close the app.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Ok, I will consider it in LAS 2.0.
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
Better would be "long click" opens recent apps :) That would be nice!
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
The button still jumps down and left every time I remove my phone from my desk dock. Have you had any luck with that bug?
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
For me it only jumps of I reboot the device.

After a reboot it's in almost in the middle of the screen and I have to move it back to its position. But that's not a problem.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
You're not using the OEM desk dock though, are you?
[Android Apps and Games] DirkStorck:
No. That's true. I don't.
[Android Apps and Games] JimSmith94:
Mine doesn't move when I reboot though.
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
This bug is haunting me down! I am trying and trying with no result. Let me see if there is anything left to do.

BTW thanks for showing patience :)
[Android Apps and Games] c3k:
Nooo! Android L or LAS? Can't choose !!! Could you please help me expanding compatibility? :)
[Android Apps and Games] castaway1:
So LastApp is not working in Android 5.0. Will it work one day? :) can i help somehow?
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
Android L has changed the way, the API's, I have used to get the list of recent applications, used to work. It is instead going to return the list of activities of my application (i.e. LAS), that is, the app's home page. And so taping the floater will open the app's homepage again and again. No hope!:confused::(

PS; Not sure, but maybe I have heard about an Xposed Module that could make it work.
[Android Apps and Games] c3k:
have you tried with last build?

I think there should be another way...

...don't count on Xposed because is not (and is not sure that will be) compatible with ART and android 5 :crying:
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
OMG! WHAT? Cannot even imagine Android without Xposed. All those customisations? All those personalizations? Let me Google some whys and hows...

BTW haven't tested LAS with the latest version of Lollipop yet, slow internet connection!
[Android Apps and Games] c3k:
start from this post from rovo89

hope to get good news from you soon
[Android Apps and Games] Abhishek verma:
I think I have got a solution. How about injecting alt+tab key events. That will automatically switch to the last activity and won't even have to get the list of recent apps. Only one flaw, I won't have any access to the list of last used applications therefore I cannot exclude home apps or any other app.

[Hardware Hacking General] Inalcanzable:
I bought a note 2 running on us cellular but whenever you call out or do anything calling related verizons automated voice comes on. I bought the phone for 50 bucks and its 9/10 condition so i figured if i cant get it to work the phone its self works perfectly. But now that i invested around 8 or 9 hours trying to figure out why i cant do anything and why verizon comes on a US cellular phone. But If anyone could help me out it would be great. The phone is indeed rooted running 4.4.2 and i have access to supersu and i have some CWM 6.0 version or something. Any ideas? Even if i can just get it back on the us cellular tower would be fine but if i could just unlock the device so it DOES work on verizon that would be even better.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NamNamNom:
I've been using this phone for around 14 months now. I've always thought about how LG managed to build a phone like this and sell it for 300 bucks. Well two days ago I got the answer. The lower part of my screen just stopped functioning, thus disabling my buttons. I searched for this problem and found a MASSIVE thread on google support forums about this. Basically the lower part of the digitizer just goes full retard. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. And when it doesn't work it makes the entire phone lag (on a custom rom)(it doesn't work 95% of the time).

To fix this i tried to make the navbar slightly bigger, but that resulted in a growth of the defected part. And using PIE or button saviour is just a pain for me.

I made this thread to let people know that this problem exists. If the next Nexus phone is made by LG, I'm buying something else.

This is an open discussion, so anyone with a similar problem/fix can post.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CCody:
I really dont know, what you guys actually do with your phones. I am using my nexus 4 for about 1 and a half year now, has been dropped twice with two scratches on the edges - no screen broken, no bootloop ever, no nothing. I can say of myself that I am not the friend of bumpers or screen protectors or any of those ugly things. I also flash a lot, try out a lot of apps - my nexus 4 has seen it all.

But not only the nexus 4, also my previous phones are fine and they still work (a nokia 5130 xpress music and a sony ericsson u10i). Thats why I thing a phone is just as good/stable/great as the user do. Of course there are a lot of issues out there but I think they dont appear from nowhere.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maulich:
4 nexus 4's in the family most almost 2 years old......never a problem. This kind of crap reminds me of the " my back glass just exploded on its own" thread. Let's not make blanket statements.....digitizers on phones malfunction all the time....on all brands, probably due to your mistreatment.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crashDebug:
I do not understand the point of blaming it on the user though. Yeah, many phones from different brand have digitizer issues. Yeah, digitizers fail. But if a lot (and I mean a lot) of users are complaining on the same exact issue there is a manufacturing problem for sure. And it's pretty clear that you did not bother checking the related thread at google's support forum, otherwise you would notice how many "mistreating", as you say, users are all having the same digitizer issues in exactly the same part of the screen. Now, does that mean that every nexus 4 sold will have the digitizer fail at some point or another? absolutely not. Maybe its' only one every 100, or even 1.000 or 10.000. Maybe it was a defect of a relatively small batch of screens (seems legit since the issue always occurs after a certain amount of months), that were sold in a period where you didn't buy the your four statistically (ir)relevant devices.

when will you guys understand that just because your phone does not have the issue, doesn't mean that NO phone has that issue??

(and even if it's not one but 5, 10 phones, how much relevance do you think it has compared to the hundreds of thousands of shipped devices?)

for what matters to the actual thread, anyway, I read LG replaces the defective devices under warranty without fuss. If the device is out of warranty, a diy repair is pretty easy to people savvy with tools.

Anyway, there is a couple threads here that talk about the issue:
