FAQ

My ROM already has gesture unlock, how is this better?

The module has a lot of customization options, like, gesture colours, gesture visibility, text visibility, show gesture correct or incorrect, show or hide emergency button and text, and even full screen gesture. You even launch custom shortcuts directly from the lock screen.

Does this work with screen off?

No, that is device specific and I can't implement it without having a device in hand, and even then, it is beyond my abilities.

Module does not work at all

Give me logcat, SystemUI.apk or any other lockscreen.apk which your device uses, I will try to implement it.

Some features, particularly emergency button related, do not work

Give me logcat, SystemUI.apk or any other lockscreen.apk which your device uses, I will try to fix it, but if it gets too difficult to manage because of your OEM ROM, it will not be done.

I am stuck on the lock screen, please help!

Long press the gesture view 3 times and draw a gesture. Your stock pattern will be restored.

CM / HTC / Xperia / TouchWiz support?

Works on some HTC, Xperia and TouchWiz devices and not all features work properly.

CM is supported before 20th June nightly I believe.

working well, thanks so much
[Xposed Framework Modules] prestodigiti:
Hi again. I disabled the knock code module as you said and it worked. However, i noticed that there's something wrong with the gesture entry. I feel like it's not working as it should. Sometimes the gesture gets recognised from the first attempt sometimes it requires multiple attempts. I don't know if it's something from my side but the gesture entry feels so laggy and not working properly.
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tyaginator:
Great work. One thing, it just feels a little slow.

Sent from a Device using an App!
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Try reducing the minimum prediction score? I didn't face this at all. A little more information will do good.

What feels slow? Some things may lag because of the automatic preference reloader, try a reboot?
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tyaginator:
I mean its slow as compared to knock code, it takes a bit more time to unlock, haven't tried reboot just did a keyguard restart. I'll try doing a reboot.

Sent from a Device using an App!
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Turn off show gesture correct?
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I think there is a lag when using custom shortcuts to unlock, but not when unlocking normally. Is that what you're talking about [MENTION=5327227]Tyaginator[/MENTION]?

EDIT : Cannot reproduce any longer after reboot it seems?
[Xposed Framework Modules] NTLinhHaHa:
Now THIS is what I was looking for :3
[Xposed Framework Modules] Tyaginator:
No i was talking about normal unlock only, it's just minor. Currently i'm back to knock code coz I've kinda habit of that and maybe i feel it slow coz i'm too quick in unlocking via knock code. I'll keep on checking further updates.

this work with screen off?
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
No, it doesn't
[Xposed Framework Modules] nereuseng:
Thank you so much for creating this module!

I have waited too long for this! ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] prestodigiti:
The full screen gesture does not work for me. I tried a full reboot instead of just restarting the keyguard but still no luck. Also, there is a little "t" missing in "Directly show gesture entry" in the "Gesture Settings" section.

here it is
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
It should, but untested.

Checking
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
It should work as far as I can tell. Give me Xposed logs?
[Xposed Framework Modules] prestodigiti:
This ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Everything seems alright, maybe another module is conflicting? Can you check with other modules disabled and provide a log if it does not work?
[Xposed Framework Modules] prestodigiti:
Sure
[Xposed Framework Modules] prestodigiti:
I disabled all the modules and it did not work. Maybe i did not get what the full screen gesture is supposed to do. Could you please explain so i can know whether i did understand its purpose or not? Anyway, here's the log.
[Xposed Framework Modules] DaksAnkit:
Thanks man , the module works fine on my cm12.1 based rom , but it takes little time to unlock the phone after input gesture ?
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Attached, you can even hide the emergency button so it appears full screen completely.

Try turning off show gesture correct, it causes the green gesture to show up, wait for 0.3 s and then unlock. I will reduce the time in next release.
[Xposed Framework Modules] prestodigiti:
Well, that's not working for me then. Only the bottom part is active.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Sorry, can't do anything. Logs say everything works.
[Xposed Framework Modules] greg285:
Working fine on latest RR marshmallow rom

Interesting unlock feature !! Thanks for this
[Xposed Framework Modules] DaksAnkit:
[MENTION=6065596]Rijul.A[/MENTION] thanks for the suggestion, will do that , anyhow its a cool one , your work is appreciated bro.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Please try the latest version, it has lower lag (0.05 s) and no lag if you don't show gesture correct. Now it will also provide a message warning about this small lag.
[Xposed Framework Modules] krittin98:
[MENTION=6065596]Rijul.A[/MENTION] a module I have been waiting for. Working perfectly on dirty unicorns v10. Just one suggestion: if any unauthorised person wants to access my phone, then they can soon realise that they just need to draw a gesture. He can then have full access to my phone. What I suggest is that, you should get the unlock gesture entered, after entering a custom gesture. Otherwise, everything is working fine
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
That's like saying that somebody will see a pattern screen, realise that they need to draw a pattern, so to avoid that, you have the lockscreen with two patterns.
[Xposed Framework Modules] krittin98:
Mathematically speaking, the probability will decrease with what I said. I also use gesture anywhere and would like to use those gestures on my lockscreen too. Sometimes, gesture anywhere also does not work properly. I just want to request you to add an option to enable or disable it. Rest is your wish.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I think I misunderstood. Let me try again, when the option is enabled, you want the user to input a gesture and then the app should

1. Match it with a custom shortcut gesture, if it matches,

2. Ask for the main unlock password, if it matches, unlock the phone and show the shortcut?
[Xposed Framework Modules] krittin98:
Exactly
[Xposed Framework Modules] n0j0e:
Nice module! Is working fine here on latest ViperOne 9 Rom (HTC One M7, Sense 7, Android 5.0.2, ASOP Lockscreen Tweak). ⭐⭐⭐⭐
[Xposed Framework Modules] DaksAnkit:
works like a charm , now kudos !!
[Xposed Framework Modules] krittin98:
[MENTION=6065596]Rijul.A[/MENTION] any plans to include in my suggestion?
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
In due time, I'll have a look, right now I've an assignment from college.
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEHOLYG0D:
This was the mod I was looking for years, hush. Very awesome work brother, just one request can you add a feature to set screen brightness while the gesture is shown? Because when in the sun the screen is not visible :3

And yeah how do we remove a custom gesture :3
[Xposed Framework Modules] TimDawg:
Xperia Z5

Tried this on my xperia Z5 and it wouldn't boot after. Stock ROM and stock kernel apart from security blocks disabled for rooting.

Fixed issue by doing the following to temporally disable xposed so I could boot and uninstall problem module.

Boot into Recovery

TWRP > Advanced > Terminal command

Create a file /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/disabled, which causes Xposed to be bypassed:

touch /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/disabled

rename/delete file once module is uninstalled and boot as normal.

Cheers
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Sorry, I haven't tested on Xperia device. PS : Next time, delete /data/app/me.rijul.gestureunlock-*/base.apk to get rid of the module. Also, the module does nothing that would prevent booting of the device, if you'd like to investigate this, please give me SystemUI.apk and logs. Thanks.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Which part of the screen's brightness? The actual device brightness, or the background opacity?

You can't remove a shortcut, it's a known bug. Delete app data and redo them.
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEHOLYG0D:
Entire screen :3 background opacity will also work ????
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Use Tasker or automatic brightness or something I'll add an option for the opacity

EDIT : Xposed module called Bright Lockscreen will be useful
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEHOLYG0D:
Thanks for the heads up :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] nereis:
Love this module!

I would like to suggest launching apps over the lockscreen without deactivating it for better security. Just need to make the target apps always on top so that it shows over the lockscreen, and we can go back to the pattern lock once the app is exited.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Will consider it
[Xposed Framework Modules] nixie2121:
thanks for all you do, very responsive to suggestions. great job here, THANKS!
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
You're welcome, I am trying to figure out a mechanism to 'pin' the launched activity on screen without any user prompt. Will keep you updated.
[Xposed Framework Modules] nereis:
With the aid of app settings we can have apps stay in foreground without deactivating the screen lock.
[Xposed Framework Modules] terroboy k9:
Can you tell how it can be achieved normally ??
[Xposed Framework Modules] nereis:
no I am not sure how it can be done, I think app settings hook into the individual app launch and make them always on top. Might not be a bad idea to advise using it with app settings or quick access (from lockscreen) module. Back in the day when kitkat introduced lockscreen widgets and dashclock was the de facto lockscreen launcher, there was a lot more demand for stuff to run over the lockscreen, maybe if the code for the above 2 modules are open source, you can have a look at how it's done.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Check out the latest release! Added option to launch shortcut without unlocking, and option to set background opacity of the gesutre (Bright Lockscreen if used is still required, and not made redundant by this feature)
[Xposed Framework Modules] THEHOLYG0D:
Damn that was very fast thanks a lot, Kudos Brother ????

---------- Post added at 08:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:47 PM ----------

Even more Fast, had even asked how to delete custom Gesture withing minutes of that update saw this on the other device :3 Keep Up, and yeah that Screen Opacity keeping it a little Translucent white Works Like A Charm :D
[Xposed Framework Modules] krittin98:
Thanks for considering my suggestion. I am on du v10, and I am experiencing some lag. There is also some problem in gesture recognition. Also, in place of using the unlock gesture, van you add an option where we can use the pattern lock after an app has been opened using a gesture? Waiting for the next update.
[Xposed Framework Modules] D-m-x:
[MENTION=6065596]Rijul.A[/MENTION]: The new feature "Launch without unlocking" seems to be a bit bugged. I enabled it after Reboot, restarted Keyguard and it wouldn't move past the Unlock Screen but just on certain Apps (Whatsapp, Inbox) others like SMS it would launch fine without Unlock prompt.

I disabled it again, rebooted and now all Apps work without unlocking first despite the Option being turned off.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
No, I don't like that idea. What lags? What problems? Be more specific please.

I don't understand much of what you are saying, but I had some problems too with the launched activities. I am working on a fix, you should wait for a new release and report back.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
New release up, check please.

EDIT : Let me explain the feature to you guys, let's say my normal master gesture is R, and that for dialer is P. If that setting is off, drawing a P will launch phone and unlock the device. If it is on, dialer will be launched over the keyguard without unlocking the device, and exiting the dialer will take you to your lock screen instead of home.
[Xposed Framework Modules] D-m-x:
[MENTION=6065596]Rijul.A[/MENTION]: Ah ok, i understood the feature wrong that's why you didn't understand much of what I was saying i guess. I installed the Update but I still have that problem, let me explain further. I have "Launch shortcuts without unlocking" turned in because I want to open them without unlocking the whole phone. However If I open say Whatsapp from Lockscreen the App won't actually be started above the Lockscreen but behind. This is what I'm getting when inputting the Whatsapp Gesture (see Attachments).

If I go back and unlock the Phone I can see Whatsapp has been launched correctly just not above my Secure Lockscreen. Altough and this is important: It's not happening with every App, if I launch the SMS App for example it works how it should, opening SMS/MMS App above the Lockscreen and going back to it secured whenever I'm done and go back. So it is working in general just not on any App

I'm on Benzo Rom (AOSP) and a Nexus 6P. I'll also upload a Xposed Log but i coulnd't see much in it, I'm guessing it won't be any help to you sadly.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Alright, I think I understand why that happens. Working on a fix.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Hi, check the new version, it seems to work with many more apps now, but not gesture unlock's add button in custom shortcuts in particular.
[Xposed Framework Modules] D-m-x:
What do you mean by the last sentence, I didn't really understand that!? Could you explain that further :)

And thanks for the update I'm trying it in a hour or so when I'm back home because I don't have my 6p with me :)

[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Well, it will launch the app, but resuming it won't work, and for example, clicking on the contact name in a chat will also show the lockscreen. It's very hacky right now, it seems. I am trying to think of a better way but I honestly cannot figure it out. If it doesn't work well, I will remove it.
[Xposed Framework Modules] D-m-x:
Ah ok, so you meant the feature won't work with every App there is.

I was confused because you were talking about the add button but you just meant it won't work with any app there is ?

Thanks for the clarification :)

Gonna try the Update and report back (maybe just edit the post) ;)

Edit: Ok, works better now, and Its just like you said, some things dont work and get you back to the lockscreen. Thank you :)

After delete the custom app, the rule is still there in gesture unlock settings. And if i use the gesture to try to launch the deleted app, the wallpaper becomes to default.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Cannot reproduce, but can you check the attached version? I have an idea
[Xposed Framework Modules] dlhxr:
Bug is still there.

Maybe I didn't explain well. E.g. I set up a custom gesture for WhatsApp, and then uninstall WhatsApp. Then I draw the custom gesture from the lockscreen, then boom. Firstly, there's a black screen. Then it come back to the lockscreen and the wallpaper becomes the default one.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
Sorry, I misunderstood earlier. Can you give me your Xposed logs when that happens? It seems to be an uncaught exception crashing the SystemUI, I will fix it soon although I cannot reproduce it - for me the gesture does stays there and does nothing. I'll fix that too.
[Xposed Framework Modules] dlhxr:
Here's the adb logcat.

[Xposed Framework Modules] Renegade1504:
Hello, thanks for this awesome stuff.

Loved it in previous custom roms and are happy now to have it in official CM. Nevertheless I have a small feature request:

Is it possible to remove the "correct gesture" message and show only the "incorrect gesture" message. This may improve unlocking speed a little bit as I personally need only the wrong gesture message to recognize that I need another attempt.

Thank you very much.
[Xposed Framework Modules] k_lucifuru:
+1

Nice work,..

I'm happy to have my gesture back again & it's even better than the kitkat/lollipop gesture lock

currently on v8 & everything is working great, the "bug" about some apps don't lunch on lockscreen or go back to lockscreen after clicking on something in the app is pretty normal, specially if you're familiar with the option in "App Settings" Module back on kitkat/lollipop... Exemple if you launch "Phone" app without unlocking the phone & then you want to view a number's details, you'll be redirected to the lockscreen !! Normal, Why ?? cause it's a different app/process, it's "Contacts" & not the "Phone"...

So removing the option to open shortcut w/o unlocking is not a good thing to do, if people can't make it work they should disable it & the ones who can/want to try it must enable it. :highfive:

So if it possible to add it back ( even in an official app ) would be great.

Thanks again for the great module.

Keep up the good work :good:
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
This is not the issue, the issue is navigation within the same app on some apps will bring you to the lockscreen. For example, clicking on a WhatsApp chat heading would bring you to the lockscreen.
[Xposed Framework Modules] k_lucifuru:
I don't have that problem (any problem, actually), i'm using "App Settings" LP/MM test version by Pyler & enabled the option to "Show when locked" for whatsapp & the apps that i'm using over the lockscreen. for now i can't disable it to test...

BTW I'm on Temasek's Unofficial CM13 on Samsung S3 & everything works flawlessly :cool:

If you need any more infos, i'm right here

Edit 1: after disabling the "Show when locked" option in App Settings I could reproduce the bug you mentioned before, so for a perfect workaround people should use the APP Settings Module.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I have copied the source from App Settings and modified a bit, but due to the app launching other new activities, it fails. I will either add a prompt in the next release about this feature, and how to get it to work, or I will retry to fix it in my module itself. Give me a week or so, right now I have exams. Thanks for your help.
[Xposed Framework Modules] k_lucifuru:
Take all the time you need ;)

& I'll be waiting to test it !

Good luck in your exams :good:

Been using this for a while, the freedom to draw the unlock pattern anywhere in any size makes unlocking much more secure, especially on large screen devices.

Now I can draw a tiny gesture to the side of my tablet, where most gets coveted by my palm when unlocking in public, and less chance of being read of unlock pattern through residual smudges on the screen!
[Xposed Framework Modules] nixie2121:
hello. I set up a gesture shortcut to toggle the flashlight. when I do it the screen unlocks? any way to stop the unlock? thanks

I am absolutely willing to help test for HTC. I have a T-Mobile rooted stock with Xposed and I really want to help as much as I can. At one time I was testing custom ROMs and themes for 7 different devices at once.

oh, also Sense 7 has a few gesture options included but they're more of a basic mils security. They can be disabled though

Damn , JerseyJohn23@gmail.com is the account everyone knows me by but I opened a 2nd for the phone technology and getting people's ideas and work to pay off.. a Gesture shortcut option is perfect for when you are driving. :svetius:

Sure, test for HTC and let me know what are the issues you face, with Xposed logs.

No.
[Xposed Framework Modules] YechiamTK:
Hi, installed this module, it is awesome.

I have only one question, can you make the gesture unlock as overlay over the default lockscreen, and not replace a lock pattern? I would love to have oxygen-like experience that they did with their lockscreen (even though they did it when the screen is off, which I guess will just drain the battery). Can you please try and make it as an option? Would be awesome.
[Xposed Framework Modules] :
I don't understand what you are asking for.

OxygenOS does not have any such option to use a gesture to unlock the screen.

EDIT : Are you asking for option to directly show gesture entry?
[Xposed Framework Modules] YechiamTK:
OxygenOS has an option to use gestures to activate certain features, like open camera or flashlight.

What I meant is that I want to be able to open my phone and directly use the gestures, not to slide and enter that black screen which I need to do the gestures in. I want the gestures to be right on the lockscreen. Is it possible? (did I explain it good enough? lol)
