Does multiuser support work with this rom? I assume so, but wondering how the unlock works, and also assuming the np remote is probably not going to work for that. A mouse is needed? Or can the np tablet/phone app work for unlocking?
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
You can create the shortcut of leanback launcher and start it like a normal app instead of a standard launcher.

But i also understand, that normal apps are better than leanback apps. No exception.

If you want, this leanback launcher version have also mouse support:

[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
Normal Netflix app is not 1080p because Netflix limit it but i not know the reason.

The leanback version instead, that you can find in apkmirror website is 1080p

Maybe is just a question of build.prop or because for Netflix all nexus player users must use the leanback version. In others word is not a firmware problem and you can still watch at 1080p if you use the leanback version.

You can set when the display go in sleep from android settings. I set it to 30 minutes of inactivity. But you can also remove the sleep from developer settings. Stay awake.

This firmware is full widevine enabled and very secure for DRM apps ( you can't record videos with drm ), so you can complain with Netflix if create problems to users in this way, without any valid reason.

Or find a better video services. Many users use kodi and addons for this reason.

[MENTION=1469500]zulu99[/MENTION], can I use a VPN with your 6.0 ROM? My ISP always seems to throttle Netflix and Youtube streams, but when I connect my VPN I get the full 1080p streams almost instantly, but only when using my VPN (Private Internet Access). So I am always forced to use my Desktop computer for streaming to the TV.

I also wanted to know why you used the MRA58K and not the newest MRA58N? I know its only a security update, but still curious why. Thanks for your great work. :good:
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] zulu99:
You can use vpn, but i not tested. Let me know if there are problems but i don't think

About version, because is just a security update. When others more important things will be corrected, and there are many important things to correct for Nexus Player in AOSP, i will update. This firmware is not perfect, but the problems are on AOSP and are about graphical operations / video decode. On the stock firmware is the same.

About security update, we have root, we are more secure :) Despite what Google say.

With root we can remove the infection if we get one because we can see all process, we can kill and delete everything.

We are Android users, not Iphone users. :)
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] SkOrPn:
Haha, you can say that again. I never once even looked at an Iphone and I pray I never will... ;)
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] QTeknology:
Netflix

There are 2 apps of Netflix on Play Store:

Netflix and Netflix for Android Tv

"Netflix for Android Tv" is for leanback launcher

and probably you are using "standard" Netflix app with Google Now Launcher...

Use Leanback launcher and Install Netflix app and check if works well, then you could do a shorcut on Google Now Launcher as Zulu teached us.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMqz8e33oq8

PLEASE, let me know if Netflix works @ 1080p with 5.1

Thanks !

ps.

I'm a minix user and I just bought a Nexus Player only for Netflix (1080p + 5.1) :D
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] pallain:
has anyone tired the NexusPlayer-kodi-keymap-streaming-fix-signed.zip ? I just noticed it under the cyanogenmod thread for NP.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] treezy26:
and what exactly is that for?
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] pallain:
it says "This zip will enable the play/pause button on the nexus remote to be used as the contextual menu button in Kodi. It also optimizes the streaming settings for a device with 1GB of RAM to prevent playback interuptions and allow continuous streaming. If you have your own advancedsettings.xml you may not want to flash this."
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] treezy26:
I have no idea what advancedsettings.xml is so I probably don't have it...or at least I don't think I do. But that would seem like I would need that. I use kodi a lot but it does buffer a lot...:rolleyes:
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] nickhaven:
It's possible it will work because the advancedsetting.xml is for kodi alone. I would try to manually put the file in the correct directory.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] npjohnson:
Hey [MENTION=1469500]zulu99[/MENTION], I know back on LoliRock v2.1, you shared the /device, and /vendor directories. Any chance you'd be willing to share the ones you crafted for this ROM?
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] KLit75:
Im attempting to do what was mentioned a few posts up(netflix leanback) but im not sure how. I installed leanback through chrome browser but it only has 5 apps on home and select button doesn't work. Luckily seetings was still in my recents.

Does this need to be flashed with another gapps package? I still want full android i think, but trying to get leanback Netflix with HD. Watched the video but it appears to just be a demo with no instructions or download links. Thanks.

Btw--think that advanced settings zip will modify your cache (fix buffering) but also put a new keymap that probably assign context menu to a key. I used keymap editor to make the back button stop video but its not working for context menu. If anyone has a keymap that does both please share.

Edit-nevermind. Found it myself...

http://kodi.wiki/view/Alternative_keymaps_for_Nexus_Player_remote

Anyone who doesnt know. Just copy the text to a blank document with whatever text editor you have. Save as a. xml file then put it in your keymaps folder. Restart kodi and youll have a more functional remote.
[Nexus Player Original Android Development] Onismurai:
Can you please share the way you use to connect the Nexus remote in this ROM? I can't find one and already searched in hopeless. No one answer me :crying:

Easy Lock

Double tap status bar/nav bar/lockscreen/notification shade to quickly put your device to sleep!

Double-tapping status bar does NOT work in Android 8 and above. Only double tap anywhere or double tap homescreen will work due to changes in system APIs.

[IMG="App icon"]http://aravindsagar.github.io/EasyLock/images/app_icon.png[/IMG]​

Especially useful in devices where power button is hard to reach

Often faster and easier than using the power button

Reduce the wear and tear of power button :)

Also has the option of double tapping anywhere/double tapping homescreen to lock.

_

Requirements

Android 4.0 (ICS) or higher

NO root required

Downloads

Version 1.3: http://bit.ly/2oDv77H (Please uninstall the previous version first)

All features of the app are available for free, without any ads. (The in-app purchase inside the app will not work as the app has been removed from play store)

Please do not mirror without permission. Link to this thread or play store page if you want to share this app elsewhere. So that users will know where to check for updates and get support from.

Please note: Hopefully it won't come to this, but just in case, to uninstall the app, you'll have to deactivate device admin permission first (Settings -> Security -> Device Admin -> Easy Lock).[/SIZE]

_

Permissions explained

Admin permission is required to turn of the screen and put the phone to sleep

Lollipop smart lock is not supported by Device Admin. It's an Android system limitation. However, smart lock is supported by Easy Lock if you have root access. If you see a prompt for root access, this is what that's for.

Draw over other apps permission is required to detect double taps.

App Usage Statistics (in Lollipop and above) is required if you enable the option 'Try to avoid soft key presses'. This permission will be requested only if you enable this option.

Update v1.1

Added option to avoid lock screen touches

Minor bug fixes

Update is currently rolling out in Google Play.
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
Update to Easy Lock

v1.3

- Fixed a bug which causes the app to request admin permissions even when it was already granted.

Update is available in Google Play Store.

I had added an option to enable double-tap anywhere to lock the screen. I'm sure it'll be a nuisance for most people, since it'll get activated while typing, double tap to zoom photos etc, but there were some requests for it. However, that update was rejected by Play Store. Hence I've disabled that feature in the play store version of the app. If anyone is interested in the above mentioned feature, I can upload an apk having double tap anywhere to lock functionality. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Wani Aamir:
Not available in Google play, can u please give me the download link, i love this app
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
Unfortunately the app has been removed from the Play Store because it interacts too much with System UI. I'll upload the apk here by tomorrow.
[Android Apps and Games] 00471:
Could you upload apk already? :p thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
Sorry it took so long, I was away from my system. OP has been updated with a download link. :)
[Android Apps and Games] 00471:
No problem and thanks, anyway the double tap on softkey to sleep is big problem, even the function to prevent it doesnt work, good luck

Amazing work!

I've traditionally always rooted my android devices, but with marshmallow I'm trying to keep them stock for the security/stability benefits. My new Huawei Honor 8 didn't have a double tap to sleep feature built in, and with no root I couldn't use gravitybox to get it. I also couldn't find anything satisfactory in the app store, as I just wanted something that would make the device sleep, but not wake up (my phone wakes up by itself as soon as you touch the fingerprint scanner). The V1.2 of this app works perfectly! I lowered the double tap to 150ms, which seems to be about as fast as I can comfortably double tap the status bar/nav bar, but is faster than I would normally mash the back button, removing the need for ignoring the nav buttons. Plus it seems to take no more than 40mb of ram, with it averaging more about 25mb, which is great. Luckily for me, Huawei's EMUI implementation of android prevents your app from interfering with the fingerprint scanner, even without root. I tested your app on my galaxy tab s2 (also running android 6.0.1) and as expected, using it to sleep the device interfered with the fingerprint scanner, but not so on this great little Huawei device (I just had it on my tablet for testing, it already turns itself on/off with its flip cover). I can understand why Google removed it from the play store (at anything over 250ms it's easily to accidentally trigger with the back button) but I'm glad I found it. I've never actually had a button wear out or break on me because I upgrade phones too often, but it still feels nice to be able to turn my phone on and off without any buttons. Great work!

Edit: it's really too bad that the donate button doesn't work. Do you have any other apps in the play store that I could buy/donate to support you?
[Android Apps and Games] adl:
Wow, thanks for the app! Working great on my S7 edge (unrooted).
[Android Apps and Games] shadowdrag96:
Just tried it on my pixel xl works great but the only gripe I have is that when it locks the phone I can't use my fingerprint reader to open it after which is making me not use it anymore because it's so much faster to use the fingerprint scanner. If that's fixed I'll definitely be using it.

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Thibault1171:
[MENTION=4494783]aravindsagar[/MENTION] Hi, I have the same problem on my Z5 Compact. When I double tap the status bar, the phone locks.

But when I wake it up, if I use my fingerprint to unlock, I also have my patern (or pin, or password, whatever security is set) → Double security instead of one.

I only encounter this issue while using your app. If Easy Lock is disabled, I can unlock my phone just with my fingerprint.

Is their a way to fix this issue? (or an alternative to double tap status bar to lock?)

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] Ayan Uchiha Choudhury:
same problem, any way to fix this issue?
[Android Apps and Games] mcgrathpatj:
Bump on this. Love it but need to be able to unlock with fingerprint sensor.

Other apps get around this by simply turning the screen off. Works great with amoled. Not sure how easy that is to implement.
[Android Apps and Games] roirraW "edor" ehT:
I would donate for this if it would implement the method to lock the screen with root instead of using Admin (so, as mentioned in previous posts above, I could use the fingerprint reader to unlock afterwards). The shell command "input keyevent 26" does this as long as it's done with superuser access. I have a QuickTile through the Automate script app do exactly that currently, but I'd prefer to be able to double-tap the status bar instead of using a prime Quick Tile space.
[Android Apps and Games] V0idst4r:
This is horrible and will never replace the custom ROM feature. I can't use my fingerprint and I can't even enter my password without it locking again. It also locks when I double tap a softkey (even with the option to prevent against it).
[Android Apps and Games] fahmi182:
If use device administrator, open lock cant using fingerprint, btw good app.. i search tap to sleep app that can using fingerprint to wake/unlock..
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Arrow launcher has this. Always work.

Trying the Lawnchair (Pixel) launcher which lacks this feature. Only works on status bar. Users of this launcher want this!

(All permissions set up. MIUI device.)
[Android Apps and Games] roirraW "edor" ehT:
Just a note, Arrow launcher has double tap anywhere to sleep, not double tap status bar, and it also has to be set to be a device Admin, so again the fingerprint reader is rendered useless. Not knocking Arrow Launcher, just wanted to specify in case others with fingerprint readers are tempted to try it for this purpose.
[Android Apps and Games] sivakrishnanj:
Is any option double tap to wake the device ?
[Android Apps and Games] dego007:
exactly .. need double tap for waking up too

then only this will be complete IMO
[Android Apps and Games] Thibault1171:
Hi, it's on home page only now for an obscure reason. But there is still this problem : we CAN'T use FINGERPRINT scanner AFTER double tap to lock
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Correction: Now working. Draw-over permission did not "take," Actually

BUG: App keeps requesting it even though I got it set and it works fine. Might be MIUI related.

Note: Arrow's double-tap also seems to interfere with fingerprint unlock!
[Android Apps and Games] Venjex Blade:
You know this app is like a huge revolution for Indian people having old devices. Coz Indian market has a great share of Micromax and other brands and those didn't got a custom ROM even custom recovery support. When my friends see me doing double tap they say that I want this feature and I end up saying no your device didn't support.

But with this app all of them are going to be happy and the big part is it doesn't even need root access to work. Hence there's no need of rooting there device coz its a hard task and goes even worst when I go with Chinese software's like KingRoot.

Thanks a lot buddy!
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
More on BUG:

Had to redo draw-over permission after reboot.

Repeated notification likely has to do with the apps persistent notification. Simply excluded in "lock screen" to get rid of annoyance. Still a bug.

Exercising that notification takes me to a keep-screen-on app to install plugins, paid version, etc. Why should it do that?
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
Could you please comfirm that using fingerprint to unlock will never work on non-rooted devices? I.e. when using admin mode to lock the screen, fingerprint is forcefully disabled by the OS?
[Android Apps and Games] hackslash:
Why don't you try All in One Gestures. It has single tap, double tap and long press on Status Bar to perform various actions and shortcuts. Could be integrated with screen off and custom root scripts (if you like).
[Android Apps and Games] rmrbpt:
Works on status bar and on Lockscreen.

For me it does all that I needed.

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] RevanEphys:
For me it works perfectly but different point of touches count as double tap , i was hoping the double tap to sleep only works at one touch point (atleast nearby each other between first touch and second touch)

Else works perfectly

Keep up the good works :D
[Android Apps and Games] jean0927:
it's good but my only problem is that whenever i type it locks the phone
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Consistent BUG:

Must re-enable draw-over permission, restart app after every reboot.

UPDATE: This is a problem if the permission is set from app's prompt. Setting "enable draw over" (or "enable popup") from system settings will work fine!
[Android Apps and Games] RedSkull23:
Looks nice, I'll try it as I'll have time to preserve my power button life :)
[Android Apps and Games] DarkNate34:
It doesn't work with fingerprint unlock.

Stock Samsung Galaxy S6.
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
This problem is endemic since Arrow launcher with double-tap lock has the same problem!

So solving this would be appreciated by many!
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Note on reported bug: If enable popup-display (another word for draw over?) is checked in system setting for the app, then it works 100% Answering "yes" inside the app is temporary.

Idea: Foreground App/activity exclusion. Have that in many screen-on/screen-off apps. With this, no need to restrict to status bar to avoid turning of screen from keyboard or favorite game.
[Android Apps and Games] badmanleb:
Hello,

Thanks for your hard work :) your app saved me a lot.

i have Xperia Z5P nougat 7.1.1 everything works perfectly, but when using it to lock my screen, i can't use fingerprint to unlock the device and show me the device administration locked the device and force me to unlock it using PIN Code..!! Any fix will be much appreciated
[Android Apps and Games] Dovidhalevi:
Bug?

App gets kicked off even with notification. Set as "persistent?"

Happens even if MIUI's app controls set to leave it alone.
[Android Apps and Games] elban:
The app "screen lock" by Simi Studio found a way around the fingerprint issue, it works on my phone; could you please have a look, maybe you can adapt the same solution to your program.
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
I was on a break from app development for a while (basically I was busy at work). It's time to get back into the game :)

Based on the feedback I'm seeing, I'm planning 2 enhancements for the next version:

- Support fingerprint unlock

- Pause service for certain foreground apps

Thanks for all the feedback!
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
Also, fingerprint unlock is possible if you have root. There's an option 'support smart lock', and upon enabling this option, fingerprint reader should work. This option won't show up if you don't have root though. Some extremely hacky solutions for non-root support exist, let me see whether I can figure that out. Any help would be appreciated.
[Android Apps and Games] amin318:
I have an idea, my phone (all Huawei phones, idk about other brands) has this shortcut that we can add on home screen to lock the phone without fingerprint issue.

Can you please add an option in Easy Lock that we could choose to trigger this shourtcut instead?
[Android Apps and Games] Fullmetal Jun:
What does root do?
[Android Apps and Games] Sangean:
You can do what Nova Launcher does. It turns the screen black and locks after 5 seconds. Then fingerprint unlock works.
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
With root, the app will emulate a power button press. So the effects will be exactly the same as you pressing the power button. Without root, currently the app uses device admin APIs which disables fingerprint and smart lock for unlocking the phone next time.
[Android Apps and Games] bl0wndiff:
Not working on 8.1?

Works fine... But cannot unlock phone using fingerprint... When tried it says locked by administrator... Use pattern to unlock... I am using mi a1.
[Android Apps and Games] teohguangli:
I have root and had also enabled root access but I couldn't see the 'support smart lock' option. :confused:
[Android Apps and Games] addicteduser:
Lock via double tapping notification/status bar doesn't work for Android 8. My device is Nokia 6. Also please add support for double tap lock on anywhere in the home screen. The current version supports double tap lock anywhere, which means when in use of other apps.

Thanks! :)
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
Unfortunately, the API changes in Android 8 means that apps can no longer "watch" touch events in system UI areas, like status bar and lockscreen. Part of the updates to the window overlay elements. No way around it. Double tap status bar to lock will no longer work (from Oreo onwards).

Double tapping anywhere in home screen is doable, though. I'm working on it now.
[Android Apps and Games] aravindsagar:
Updated the app with an option to double tap anywhere in the home screen. Download link in OP. Please uninstall old version first (I lost the original keys). Double tapping status bar will still not work in Android 8 and above.
[Android Apps and Games] nerlim:
Something strange happens, at least once a day I have to open the application, to give the root permissions again. But, if I open magisk, the permissions are automatically balanced, as I could solve.

Thanks for this fantastic app.
[Android Apps and Games] Dr. Neuhaus:
When I typing quickly on soft keyboard, 'Easy Lock' turns the screen off. Also if I quickly touch two different screen zones (outside the soft keyboard) it turns off the screen too. Could you, please, fix it?
[Android Apps and Games] emiljano539:
When i lock the screen with it and then try to unlock my device with fingerprint requires only the pattern code which is annoying. How to disable it?
[Android Apps and Games] plazzmex:
You can't... This is an Android security thing. When a device is locked by an administrator privilege you need to reenter your lock key before being able to use any biometric unlock again...

And if you lock the device with this method each time then you can forget about fingerprint unlock...
[Android Apps and Games] T4Rsam:
Does this app use a lot of battery? Just got an S9+ and don't want it draining
[Android Apps and Games] hgurbuz78:
how is the uninstall?
[Android Apps and Games] Black Shade:
I believe you could use the accessibility service to overlay the status bar on Oreo
[Android Apps and Games] Pixel vtec:
It worked fine for me, just enable "support lollipop smart Lock"

---------- Post added at 01:37 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 AM ----------

You have to enable "double tap anywhere on lockscreen" instead of"double tap anywhere"

Enjoy
