Hey this is a great app you have made, but for some reason the media play/pause does not work for standard action and action on lockscreen for Spotify when you ask Google Assistant to play a song. It can pause the song but it can't resume the song. I can successfully play and pause a video on YouTube so I believe it could be app related (i'm probably wrong so take it with a pinch of salt). So far I can fix this by restarting the phone, but I was hoping you have an alternative solution to this. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] npopson:
I too am having issues with Spotify through Google Assistant on the lock screen (using OK Google or a button). I haven't been able to pinpoint exactly what breaks it, it seems random when it works or does not work. Not certain it is related to bxActions either, seems like it might be because I haven't had the issue with bxActions disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
bxActions just sends Media events to the system. The system then decides what to do with it.

If there are multiple apps opeopener the system may get confused.

I have the same model. Doesn't work with me at all.

bxActions works perfectly on S9 or S9+

If you need any help on setup, just ask.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] meyerweb:
Figure anything out for this yet? I find it hard to accept that it's a Samsung bug, since both of the other methods for taking screenshots work fine, without crashing AOD.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
Please check changelog of latest bxActions 4.6.

Its already fixed by a workaround. And it actually was a bug in Samsungs firmware.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] meyerweb:
In that case, I have to say it's not fixed. Whenever I use the screenshot option in bxActions, AOD turns off. Every time.

Works perfectly here on S9. Just give it a try :good:
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
Just tested with new bxActions update and could not reproduce the error.

Seems its fixed.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] psouza4:
Nope, definitely not.

I have bxActions 4.6.1 from the Play Store and it's about a 10 second delay if I try to rotate any apps after having used the Bixby button to take a screen shot via bxActions. If I use Package Disabler to disable bxActions, the delay instantly disappears. If I re-enable bxActions via Package Disabler, it's a painful 10-second wait again per rotation.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
I have arcc firmware installed, march security update and all runs fine.

Which firmware do you have installed?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] psouza4:
I have the latest Verizon firmware update available (1 OTA patch since I received my phone), which reads February 1, 2018. There are no OTA's available when I check.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] newbkilla:
To piggyback off of what you said, I also have latest firmware, security says February update. I am running bxActions, 4.6.0 (you said 4.6.1, shows up as 4.6.0 on my end?), upgraded to pro/coffee within the app. Unlocked snapdragon.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] psouza4:
Play Store says 4.6.1, Settings > Apps says 4.61. Also donated with in-app purchase, if it matters. Not an unlocked phone here, though.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] newbkilla:
Lol I don't know why ours differ.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] psouza4:
Not that it matters... both versions are affected equally, it seems.

S9+ on U1ARCC screenshot does not work
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
4.61 is a beta release, should make no difference.

You have to allow bxActions to capture screen content. Otherwise it will not work. There is a popup requesting access when you start the action.

This is not so. Check prior posts -- we've submitted all the info you asked for.

Willing to provide logcats or any other details you need.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] sirsomething:
It works amazingly but when in home screen, single press button lags like hell but long press works nice. Of course I made all the steps to configure bxactions. When any app is open the single press action works flawlessly. Is this a problem anyone is having? I'm using Nova launcher btw, dunno if that's what causes the problem - GS9+ exynos

With bxActions disabled the screen rotates fast as it should. Enabled, it takes nearly 30 seconds for it to rotate. I really hope this gets sorted it out or I'm gonna have to stop using it and get a refund.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Huigie:
Nope.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
So do you have ARCC base version firmware with march security update installed?

If not it should be released soon by your carrier.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] psouza4:
It's disappointing to hear that you're willfully excluding support for most of North America with OEM locked S9/S9+ variants. These carriers take forever to update, sometimes months.

Verizon: https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s9-plus-update/ (U1ARBG - Released March 16, 2108)

T-Mobile: https://support.t-mobile.com/docs/DOC-37152 (U1ARBG - released March 16, 2018)

AT&T: https://www.att.com/devicehowto/tut...tep_KM1253489?make=Samsung&model=SamsungG965U (U1ARBI - Released March 16, 2018)

etc.

All currently on U1ARB* firmware and will likely stay for a while as they were all released on March 16th, 2018 (only a few weeks ago) and tagged as "Android Security Patch Level" / "SPL" of February 1, 2018. This is how American carriers work and I wouldn't be surprised for it to be another few weeks or longer for March's SPL to roll to carrier OEM. At which time, I suspect a new SPL will be available for your phone and then suddenly there might not be bxActions support for the firmware we're on again.

I've been trying to figure out for weeks why my AOD won't turn off in my pocket and I finally figured out it is bxActions. I stopped the app and sure enough AOD started turning off with proximity covered. Do you think you could fix this bug?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] meyerweb:
There appears to be a bug with bxActions interacting with AOD. If I have bxActions turned on, the AOD screen doesn't shut off when the phone is face down or in a pocket, like it's supposed to. If I turn bxActions off, AOD works correctly.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] stevedensmore:
I have an unlocked Samsung S9+ purchased directly from Samsung that I use as a WiFi device. I've doublechecked and all everything is up-to-date.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
Its not that i dont want to fix the problem, i just cant. bxActions uses a standard android api called mediaprojection to take screenshots. This api works fine on all android devices including Samsung devices.

When Samsung updated S8 / S9 to Oreo they introduced a bug, that would disable aod and also the rotation bug when using the mediaprojection api. With their latest updates (march security level patch) it seems they fixed these bugs.

As i dont have access to Samsungs source i cannot fix this problem. Only Samsung can. Hope you understand.

Just tested and AOD turns off in pocket even if bxActions is running (firmware: ARCC march security patch)

What firmware and security patch do you have?
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] meyerweb:
Still on the February security patch. Should get the March patch soon, so I'll hope that fixes it. I'll let you know. Thanks.

Is there a way to set this up to use the Bixby button to launch the Samsung Pay screen that swipes up from the bottom of the launcher? I can get it to launch the app but not this screen. Love this app!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] azian_advanced:
I've been using the app for a couple of weeks now. One issue I found is the app doesn't work well with the Samsung LED view case (and probably the clear view case). While the flap cover is closed, none of the assigned actions work except single-press actions on the Bixby button. Hopefully an update can take care of this issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
Do you have "pocket mode" enabled in bxActions?

Please disable it, the it should work fine.

Maybe it can get lauched by -> launch shortcut -> Samsung pay?

Not available in my country so i cant test.

My AOD app got an update recently, maybe thats enough to fix the problem. You could try to check samsung apps for updates.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] silegeek:
I have found this app very useful.

Initially I just disabled Bixby as I have no use for it. But I didn't really want the button to go to waste.

Initially I set it so that it launched the camera, but when holding the phone in landscape and when reaching (of which slightly more is required on the S9+) for the volume I would press the button, and the camera popped up so I turned that off.

Currently I have it set so that a long press will launch the camera. When the screen is off, one press will play/pause audio and a long press will turn the flash on and off.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] stevedensmore:
I think I may have remedied the screen rotation delay bug. I'm not sure which made the difference but I disabled the bxActions' "in pocket" feature and cleared the system cache from the recovery mode.

I'm going to assume it was clearing the system's cache that made the difference because reenabling "in pocket" didn't make the screen rotation delay come back.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] stevedensmore:
I spoke too soon, the screen rotation bug has reemerged. :(
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] markamps:
Great app. But I have a problem when launching apps when the screen is off. Whether short, double or long press, the app will run but it will only appear when I unlock the phone. I am trying to open camera app while the screen is off because I'm annoyed of the double power button quick launch shortcut. Hope there is a way to bypass the lock screen.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] CatsAreGods:
I have a similar problem, but I think it actually might help diagnose a bug. I used bxActions to remap the BB to launch the camera, and I'm in an area where my phone is unlocked. If I turn Edge Lighting on, and the screen is off, hitting the BB activates Edge Lighting with what seems to be a null notification, but the phone never unlocks. If Edge Lighting is off, the screen unlocks and the camera launches. So I think there's a stray notification getting in the way.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] markamps:
Thanks for this. I turned off edge lighting and now I can launch camera using BB directly even when is screen is off. Though it is a bit slower compared to default quick launch because it has to show up the lock screen first before opening the camera. But I like it more than the default power button quick launch. I find it really difficult to double press the power button. I always end up activating the SOS message (triple power button press).
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
As already answered, this problem occurs when Edge Lighting is activated.

Samsung messed up the implementation of Edge Lighting, which prevents other apps from waking the screen when its showing...

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] buddahj:
First off great app. I was looking for a one step method for taking a screenshot and this does the trick beautifully. The only thing I've noticed is that if you're taking a screenshot of something inside a folder it seems to default to the the first image in the folder and when trying to screenshot a pic from Twitter. It will revert back to the post and screenshot that, not the selected image.

Hi! Just bought you a cup of coffee!

Tested the extra power mode, it would trigger the flash light ON, but then it would get stuck there. Pressing the bixby button won't turn off the flashlight. Additionally, toggling the Flash Light button doesn't work, and it keeps saying that the flashlight is being used by another app.

Is this a known bug?

I'm on ver 4.7, bixby home v 2.1.09.7, voice v 1.0.21.10.

Feb security patch, build ARBG

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] blaineth:
Thanks for the app! I bought you a coffee.

Just a very minor issue:

I am using the long press to activate the flashlight. If I have the Samsung keyboard open, Bixby button long press will activate the voice typing and won't turn the flashlight on. If I have google keyboard opened it will complain that Samsung Keyboard has stopped. It's completely fine but I do not know if this has some other implications.
[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Jawomo:
Thats a known bug from bixby and 3rd party keyboards, also happens without bxActions.

[Samsung Galaxy S9+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] baymon:
Hi! Just updated and tried again, still the same thing.

If I set to Extra power flash, it will trigger it. Pressing bixby button again will only bring up the bixby home screen. Then pressing it again will bring the bxbutton menu back.

Same thing, can't turn on through the flashlight toggle button.

Hi there!

A question: I do not want to use Bixby at all, but this app here sounds promising to put this button to some good use.

However i want to disable all unnecessary Bixby apps/services running in the background to save some juice. Will this app still work with Bixby completely disabled in the background?

Thanks for this update. I've noticed slightly less battery use by bxActions with this update. With the previous version, it appeared to be using about 1 mAh per hour.
