If you're rooted then give GMD gesture control a try. Fully customizable gesture support. It's one of the primary reasons why I root my devices. I particularly like having custom edge gestures to make one handed operation very easy. I've got several apps and functions mapped to thumb gestures of various shapes/directions from the right edge. Works great.

why not just swipe down from the top with two fingers?

I know its not 'anywhere' on the screen, but its just what you want.

Unfortunately I'm not rooted do to using my phone for work. I did see that though.

Because I'd rather be able to swipe from anywhere on the screen like you can set up in Nova Launcher.

Hopefully I'm wrong but my gut tells me that in order to get what you want an app would have to intercept touchscreen input while the default home screen is active . . . and that would require root.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ENIGmAdr:
Hi,

I replaced my Nexus's battery yesterday. Everything went well but trying to turn on my phone, it didn't lunch and but the led kept flashing in red. Reading here, I saw someone saying that it's a battery drain and to leave the phone charging for a couple of hours. Still nothing.

I tried to disconnect the battery from the board and start the phone and it worked. I then reconnected the battery (while the phone is lunching) and it's working but the battery percentage doesn't show and the red led is still flashing. See here (I know it small but look at the battery) -

[IMG="No battery percentage"]https://ibin.co/3579q6sFfoj6.jpg[/IMG].

[IMG="GSam"]https://ibin.co/357dp3XbDJig.jpg[/IMG]

[IMG="GSam_Status"]https://ibin.co/357e42hZip9y.jpg[/IMG]

I assume there's a problem with the board because I have two devices and I tried to switch the batteries between them and they work on the other device and red-led-flash on mine.

I'm using DU rom.

Anyone have any idea?

Thanks!

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] texaslittleangel:
I was looking forward to buying the samsung note 7 this December as a gift from me to me. I had done my research and was simply waiting for the holiday's. And then poooooof it all goes up in smokes.

I am now back to square 1. What's the next best thing? The Samsung Galaxy 7 Edge was something I was considering and I think it is something I read in regards to the curved edges that put me off. Thoughts?

I need a phone with a good camera as I travel quite a bit. Internal storage as well as the ability to add the extra storage is a must as I use the phone a lot for work.

Previous phones have included nexus 4&5, LG, Z3 & Samsung 6. I was looking into the Pixel but like all other Google phones, you don't have the ability to add an sd card :confused:

Recommendations?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Kubas_inko_CZ:
S7 camera is like good compact (amazing camera ever). 32 GB internal might not be the best, but u can use microSD. It depends. If u want to wait for perfect phone, that might never come, but S7/S7E is good option. For now and future.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] liam_davenport:

At this point, if the S8 comes out in early March, it might be best to hold off. Otherwise, the Pixel XL is awesome. Might want to try that.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Shuthefrontdoor:
I think you'll get buyers remorse if you buy an s7 now as the s8 is so close away, and with the pixel if 128gb can suffice for you it's a really awesome phone, camera is just a hair worse than s7e which IMO has the best mobile camera atm

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] texaslittleangel:
Greatly appreciate everyone's input. At the price that the Pixel is going for in Aus (aprox $1400 for the 128gb), I might as well wait for the samsung 8 :eek:
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] thedarkmunk:
I upgraded to the S7 Edge after I saw the price and issues associated with the Note 7 too. I had a Note 4 and to be honest the price I ended up getting the S7 Edge at definitely contributed to my purchase.

If you've got an S6 right now, the S7 Edge is only slightly faster in my experience and the camera is better, but the s6 still has a stellar camera (brother had one for a bit).

If you can get the S7 Edge for a good price (I paid £400 for mine back in June, hence why I bought it) then I'd get it.

The S8 will run of course be expensive to begin with, but it will also drop like the S7, so if you CAN wait, then go for the S8, if not, find the S7E at a good price and you won't be disappointed.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] LightspeeDLee:
got an S7 Edge today online. Will be delivered to me in the next few days. Only reason is cuz my beloved Note 4 sm-N910G died on me :( At first i thought it was the battery, so i brought a new original battery from eBay but hence... no cigar. It still wouldn't turn on or recharge. Now i'm thinking how good is the S7 Edge compared to the late 2014, early 2015 flagship Note 4 ?

I agree. Coming from Cyanogenmod ROMs, permission management on OxygenOS feels very limited.

Also, wanted to say, if auto run and keep awake are your only 2 points (I'm guessing probably not), and if your phone is rooted and has Xposed, try out the module BootManager, and, of course, Greenify. I would think that you already know, but, thought I'd mention it just in case.

I just found out that it's possibly more of an issue with Android standard permissions available for Marshmallow and up.

Compare "Review app permissions thru Android 5.9" https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/6014972?co=GENIE.Platform=Android&oco=1

With: "Control your app permissions on Android 6.0 and up" https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/6270602?hl=en

... for the second page, the listed permissions at the bottom is pretty similar to what is available with OxygenOS, so, it's following AOSP.

What is PWM?

Default PWM curve:

On 100% brightness it shows a rather flat curve with 60hz, this is tolerable even for flicker sensitive people.

On 75% brightness the PWM sequence changes to 240hz with high amplitude alternating, this can be already noticable for flicker insensitive people.

Below 50% you get the typical stroboscopic effect which can have a negative impact on your eyesight.

Adjusted PWM curve:

The lowest possible PWM sequence with a 60hz refresh cycle will be used on all brightness levels.

Here are two videos to show the difference in motion:

Recorded with S7 slow motion camera mode; Starting with 100% brightness -> 60% -> 20% -> 5%.

The first video shows the default Samsung kernel.

The second video shows the pwmfree kernel.

I'm currently testing a custom kernel with the suggested fix included.

The PWM frequency is consistent even on lowest brightness but it also shows the mentioned issues:

Probably needs to include a slightly increased PWM on brightness <40 cd/m2.

You can test the PWM flicker by shaking your hand on a white background at 50% brightness, you will notice a stroboscopic effect.

Some information about the mentioned deterioration that increases on low brightness; it is called mura defects:

In short: mura defects are small irregularities / deviations caused by the OLED production process.

Although this is a typical behaviour for AMOLED displays, the pwmfree kernel might increase the visibility of those mura defects due to the reduced pixel current on lower brightness.

The PWM effect is also used to mask those mura defects, so they become less visible:

I searched for some information if the modified PWM mechanism might (negatively) impact OLED lifetime.

But interestingly enough it seems that the pwm free approach might even increase it's lifetime:

The adjustment of the nominal current must be realized by the DC amplitude of the driver (see above). Nevertheless, dimming of OLEDs is allowed also by pulse width modulation (PWM).

Reduction of the DC amplitude for dimming will increase the OLED lifetime disproportionally (figure 7), but may lead to color shifts at white OLEDs.

Reduction of the mean current by pulse width modulation (PWM) will increase the OLED lifetime not that much (only proportionally, figure 7) but keeps the color point of white OLEDs stable.

Summary:

150% OLED lifetime without PWM and more visible mura defects.

100% OLED lifetime with PWM and less visible mura defects.

Color shifts are less noticeable due to better AMOLED panel quality and color correction mechanisms.

I've purchased S7 Edge today just to try PWMFree kernel (I wasn't able to use SAMOLED phones since Galaxy S3 / Note 3 onwards), but have to report that after flashing it (latest version 11) the phone is stuck on logo (Galaxy S7 Edge powered by Android).

Okay, I'm very happy to report that your PWMfree kernel does the magic!

Will have to use the phone for a few more days in order to make a final judgement whether that remaining 60Hz flicker makes any discomfort or not, but I can already confirm that with your kernel I can again use newer Samsung devices - the difference is night and day =)

Is there a way for you to make a test kernel even without 60Hz flicker for comparison?

And how/where can I donate?

Hi,

I’m from Portugal and I’ve bought a Mi5 some days ago.

I have a problem for which I don’t find any solution.

The phone came with a modified fake ROM from the Chinese store but was working fine.

I unlocked the phone and installed TWRP to flash other ROMs. I flashed MIUI 8 global stable and a custom ROM from Xiaomi.eu without any problem.

Everything was working fine with the phone but I noticed that a lot of files from prior fake ROM (the one from the Chinese store) remained in the phone. So I decided to swipe everything in TWRP (including system and internal storage) and flashed MIUI Global Stable ROM again.

From this point, I never again been able to connect to a WiFi network and the 2G, 3G LTE connection became very weak and instable. The phone scan the wifi network available without problem, but after introducing the password, it tries to connect and just shows “Saved”.

I tried a lot of stuff. Static IP, reboot router, change router channel, change router security settings, flash different ROM, tweak build.prop file, but the problem persist.

In the phone test menu, when I try to connect to a WiFi I see that the phone scan, connect, disconnect, scan, connect, disconnect…

Any help?

Do you think it’s Hardware related issue? Or phone firmware and driver problem?

I’ll be very grateful for any assistance.

Good Afternoon,

Im looking for a solution for an idea I have for an app and was wondering if anyone could assist from a technical perspective.

Basically im in the very early stages of developing a app which is for drinks and food discount codes for bars/restaurants. What im looking for is some form of router whereby the user of the app walks into the venue and connects to router (Bluetooth for example) then opens the app and there is a unique code generated for the particular bar and time. The code would then appear on the app and could be used for the discount.

I was thinking about a simple WiFi router but then you would have to save each WiFi password on your phone and would undoubtedly be complicated.

I've seen some Bluetooth routers but im unsure how this would work.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
