Adding tabs to Manila, or customizing existing tabs' contents?

Hi,

I tried several Manila ROMS (NATF v3 and v4, Hyperdragon III) but couldn't get used to not being able to customize the screens as I like (say like using SPB Shell and customizing the contents of any given tab).

Further, I have several apps that use a Today plugin (eg Newsbreak, PocketWeather), and I'd like to find a way to incorporate these into the Home page, or to create a Today Plugins tab, or just create a separate tab for each.

The weather tab, for example, is not practical for me, as I live in one city, work in another city, and constantly follow the weather in cities where I (or my wife) are about to travel. So having a single city weather page is of no use to me, and this is why I need to have the PocketWeather tab available.

Another thing would be able to have a separate tab for each application group (eg Navigation, Multimedia, Office...), just like creating folders that are shown in Start-Programs.

I've spent a couple of hours (actually longer) searching for a solution. Many posts direct to the Manila customizer thread, but even there I could not find anything (not to say that even the author warns that the tool is "dangerous").

I'd appreciate any ideas.

Thank you.

Task tab in Manila is one of my to-do: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=591794
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Dishe:
Yeah, but your application has stopped development, as you wrote.

This along with the separated SMS and Email tabs (I just want icons on my home panel with notification! I don't need swipe/click/swipe sliding fancy animations on separate tabs just to see my last couple of messages) are the 2 main reasons I can't use TF3D/Sense full time.

Anyone want to help pick this up with me?
[Samsung Galaxy A71 5G Questions & Answers] HartsCottage:
Greetings!

About 10 years ago, I left the smartphone world.

Recently, with the retirement of everyone's CDMA equipment, I've been all but forced to start using a smartphone again (and I'm glad I did). I can see things have become a great deal more complicated than what they used to be...

I had unlocked my HTC Touch Pro and was able to get into and change anything there, because I had found an abundance of resources on this site for editing registry entries to change icons, sounds, and all sorts of other things I wanted to customize. That was a WIndows phone, of course, which appears to be nothing like Android's system.

But now I'm using an A71 5G (A716U), and though I've been able to find a lot of guidance in making the phone my own (much of it from here), I've not found any fruitful information about how to change those annoying system sounds outside of rooting or bootloader unlocking, neither of which I'll be doing. Screen taps, charge-start notifier, default notifications....don't like any of'em.

So, with all that, this is my question: Is there any way that some genius here might know of to customize any and every internal system audio file without rooting or using the bootloader unlock? I've spent a good deal of time over the last 4 weeks trying to find a method to make this happen, but every resource eventually comes down to having to root the phone.

...Along the same lines, I would also (of course) absolutely love to replace the entirety of the startup and shutdown splashes and sounds....

Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to offer!

The screen turns on when I lift the phone. (Black and white lock screen.)

"Lift to wake" and "Tap to Check" are both off.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] roirraW "edor" ehT:
We're guessing it's a bug (I know, that post was after yours). I'm sure most things will be fixed in software over time - until Google looses interest, that is. :)
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
I think it might have something to do with using fingerprint unlock. This was happening to me as well, then I deleted all my fingerprints and it is no longer happening. Not sure if it is a bug or a "feature" connected with fingerprint unlocking.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] marko_s:
Hi all, I am having same problem with Pixel 6 and Android 12. As @Lughnasadh said removing fingerprint(s) problem is solved. It is really frustrating, if you are sitting and just holding your phone, small move would turn on the screen for no reason.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DespairFactor:
This is 100% to do with having a fingerprint setup on the phone
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] xpdragon:
Enabling the AOD would help alleviate the problem without removing fingerprint(s).
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Cares:
I have AOD off and Lift to Check off with Fingerprints on. Working as intended.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Lughnasadh:
Here is a workaround if people want to keep their fingerprint(s) but still disable Lift to Check (even when it's already disabled in your settings):

adb shell settings put secure doze_quick_pickup_gesture 0
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] DinarQ8:
There is two option for Lift to check phone

1- lift to check black screen

2- lift to check wake up the screen

If you write this code:

adb shell settings put secure doze_quick_pickup_gesture 0

you will disable the lift to check black screen

THE best settings for me to i keep lift black screen and i can control lift check wake up screen

first, you have to enable Lift to check phone from Settings - Gestures

then write this code to enable Lift to check phone

adb shell settings put secure doze_quick_pickup_gesture 1

then you can any time to control Lift to check phone ON/OFF

That's a lot of damage. Do you know if the mobo is still good? Don't go throwing much money at it otherwise especially if it hit on the mobo side.

I recommend observing ESD protocols when working on it. Out circuit the mobo and display are suspectable to ESD damage. A earth grounded ESD mat and wrist strap are best. At least raise the humidity of the room to 50% and wear cotton clothing.

If it doesn't break the bank, go for it.

At the worst you'll have a parts queen, which is fine if your intentions are to keep using this model.

The smartphone releases this year have been nothing but disappointment. Android 11 and 12 are DOA. Next year looks bad for both as well.

I can see why you want to stick with a model/OS version you like. I'm doing the same myself.

I'll buy a Pixel 4a if the patient doesn't survive. HTC, unfortunately, has bit the dust for phones .

In US Android, there seems to be only Samsmug and Pixel left. At least the Pixel have some lineage to HTC.

One plus has not been around long enough to trust.

But I'm not buying another glass backed phone.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
I'm using the Note 10+'s Snapdragon variant. However no 3.5 mm jack which you likely hate not having. I use the Buds+ which sound pretty good using the proprietary SSC bt codec.

The 10+ was the last great flagship release from Samsung. Fast, stable, a drop dead gorgeous display, reliable, a solid workhorse if running on Android 9 or 10... 11 not so much so.

My oldest 10+ is 2 years old, one battery replacement, it looks and runs like new after heavy usage. The glass back has been no issue and is cheap to replace. Use care though when replacing the battery removing the rear panel.

The other nice thing is the Samsung UI and its customization. Its fast, friendly and extremely customizable with hundreds of free themes, icon packs and UI apps like the Good Lock family from the Galaxy store. It doesn't look or act like a Pixel... thank god.

Always use a good case. I use the Zizo Bolt case. Without it my 10+ be a wreck. Over half a dozen 2-4 foot drops onto concrete, zero damage. However after a couplre hard corner hits I replace the case out of concerns of material fatigue. The only visible case damage is a shiny appearance at the hit corner indicating fatigue.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] metropical:
No headphone jack doesn't bother me. Have a Shure BT w/535. Sounds quite good.

Funny thing, never dropped a phone til the 1st month I had this. Bummer. Case too late.

But it's 3 yrs on now. Which is why I'm willing to chance the repair or replace.

What do you not like about the Pixel? To me Android is Android. The UI doesn't change much that I've seen, except for the awful LG interface that I had for a couple years before I gave up on it. This is my 3rd HTC in 10 years. They've all been good, but HTC had missed the boat a long while back when they released the 10. Many issues. The U11 has been very good even through the damaging drop.

Prior to the N10 I'd never have even thought about the Sam
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
I'm watching Pixel and not impressed.

No SD card slot. Android 11 and 12 are dogs.

Scoped storage isn't needed and makes it a pain to use.

Samsung has always been hit or miss. But when they're hot, they're hot. So far in my estimation the 10+/Snapdragon is their best Note overall.

I rejected the N20U because of display, 5G, battery and Android 11 issues. The 10+ isn't the best stat wise now, but it's a solid dependable workhorse that's a snappy fast, stable platform. It does everything well. A 1.25 to 1.5tb dual drive handheld PC is no joke.

At this point it be hard to give up the Samsung IU. It's nothing like a "pure" Android such as Pixel, thank god. Samsung has dozens of little system apks to take the edge off of Android 10 and make it more usable. You can mold the IU to fit your needs rather than the other way around.

My Q version Note can be made to look and behave like my Pie version. Even retaining the screen button navigation rather than being force to swipe navigate. I already use swipe control anyway with One Handed Operation + as well as Samsung Edge.

The native spen's Smart Select and bt remote shutter release are great when you need them.

My stock 10+'s are heavily optimized though. I use a package disabler and Karma Firewall. That was a steep learning curve and one of the reasons they run so well. The tools are available for anyone who wants to use them to modify the device without rooting.

It's just a fun device to use and play with... after 2 years it's still fun.

For $800 you can still get a new one and much less for a used one however as with all internet vendors you need to be careful. A lot of scamming going on right now.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] metropical:
I bought this U11 used off Swappa. Been very good. Don't think I'd go anywhere else. I think they have their rules in place.

After all the crappy mSD cards I've had from both Samsung and SanDisk, I think I'd rather just built in storage next time.

I just use it for music. If I seldom want to watch something, I stream from my Emby at home.

Not a gamer. Almost entirely email, text, calls, and some interwebbing.

This one is rooted as have the last couple. But the OS has become efficient enough that I don't think I'd bother.

The ads are more annoying than any other issue.

Never heard of package disabler or Karma. I'll have to look into that. Toying is fun now and then.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Package Disabler is more a Samsung targeted thing but there's a version for other devices. No clue if/how that variant works.

Karma Firewall is a freeware VPN based one with logging features if running on Pie or under. Very low battery consumption.

No issues with my latest Lexar .5tb card. It's important to format it in the phone and best to leave it there. I have over 200gb of wav and hdcd files alone so... yeah I use it.

One of the benefits of using a SD card is for backups. All critical data goes here, only the loaded apps, DCIM and download folders go on internal memory. I keep installable copies of all my apps. I can do a complete reload from the data drive. I redundantly backup the SD card to hdds as well. A may lose a little data but never all. Every PC I set up is as a dual drive even laptops. It saves pain and suffering🤣
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] metropical:
I already have protonVPN, not free, but available to me on all my electronic contraptions.

Package disable would be redundant .
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
You're already rooted, it be a downgrade from what's available for a rooted phone.

If you wanted to run a stock Samsung though, it applies.
[HTC U11  Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
When buying a SD card review its full specs.

Some are rated to work at -13F others only 32F, wtf? Likewise view rated storage temps.

I'll probably go with a Sandisk Extreme even though it's $25 more. It has wider temperature operating parameters indicating better design and production standards.

Get a V30 rated card as well. Always stick to major name brands and avoid buying on ebay, etc.

If it doesn't format in the phone, return it as it will likely never perform properly even if you zero fill it and get it to format. I use Lexar and Sandisk flash memory, zero failures thus far in over 15 years of using them in different form factors.

I around a dozen or so.

just bought a Pixel 5 off Swappa and will retire the U11 as a back up.

So far, very nice phone.

Though the difference from AOS 9 to 13 are lots.

Pixel 6 Pro sitting next to a pixel 5..... The P6P has 5-10 dBm worse wifi reception. Right next to the router its about 5 dBm worse. Further away, the difference is much worse, 10 dBm or more. It drops from 5ghz to 2.4 ghz MUCH quicker than the pixel 5.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] xxxtncxxx:
Don't know about my old db but my link speeds are the same and better sometimes as my 5, don't have them both here next to each other.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] GohanBurner:
Have you updated to the latest offering from Google yet?
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] s3axel:
I'd be a bit careful about those dBm readings, those are not calibrated power measurement sensors.

What counts in the end is the link speed and maybe it would be worth checking what the signal strength reading at the Wifi router is (because there you use the same measurement method to compare two devices).....

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] kabirjedi:

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] 96carboard:
dB is NOT an absolute measurement. Its a relative measurement, so the number can change based on what was used as the base. If you want to compare, you need to use a common element, such as the signal reading from the AP if both devices are connected to the same radio (most AP's have multiple radios).

I was playing with the phone and out of nowhere it freezes, I tried to lock the screen but it did not react so I had to turn off the phone then I tried to turn it on but it did not turn on.

Thinking that the battery had run out, I left 1h charging through both ports (side and bottom) but it did not turn on the screen to charge. I left charging the phone for a whole night for several days but it won't turn on.

I tried with the help of internet guides, the volume keys + power button but did not get any response on the phone.

I also tried to connect the mobile to my pc and see if it recognizes the phone but does not emit any signal on the pc (sound or file explorer).

Hope you help me, thank you.

Mine is now facing the same issue.

5 days ago, Was at 92% unplugged, browsing news on chrome and suddenly freezes, restarts itself, and when the ROG logo comes up it was all pixely and looks bugged, then it shut itself down and cant turn back on since then. No response from button presses or charging. Let the battery drain for 2 days, plugged the charger in and the LED light blinks red really fast for a minute and still nothing. Let it sit on charging for a couple hours, still wont boot. When I hold Vol Down with power button for 30 secs while charging the red LED blinks once. Nothing else.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
For some strange reason, I noticed exactly this aswell (one time, this morning). I was working out and my phone laid on the table, when I saw it lit up because it restarted for no reason.

I guess it's a software bug.

And no, there was no automatic system update - I checked, I'm still running the old version.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
Is there a bugfix list of any sort about the most recent sytsem update?

I tried to find one, but as of now I have been unsuccessful.

[Google Pixel 6 Pro] skyman631:
I had the November update and all apps had been updated as well. It would freeze and then reboot.

I did a factory reset and did not restore any of my apps, just ran it with the factory apps, and it still did it. Since no one else is having the issue, I'm feeling confident it was a bad unit. I had the 128 gb version.

It's back to the pixel 5 for another week or so. I had to exchange that after I got it too because of a bad proximity sensor. Either I just have really bad luck or Google needs to tweak their quality control department.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] copong:
Weird unexplainable OS crashes like that are usually due to faulty hardware, potentially RAM
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Az Biker:
If you're having issues, do yourself a favor and keep an itemized list (on your device, word doc on pc, somewhere) and notate the following for each occurrence:

-date / time

-the fault (self reboot, major lag, over heated, fast battery discharge, etc.)

-what you had to do to clear it (rebooted, closed app, powered off/on, etc.)

When talking with Google about a replacement, having THIS information ready to read off will make it extremely hard from them to give you any grief about you needing a warranty replacement.

An itemized list of faults is MUCH better evidence that you need a replacement than "well, it rebooted a few times last month" :p
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] Morgrain:
I am inclined to agree here, but my years of working with Windows and Android incl. rooting and using custom roms and kernels want to disagree here. There can be half a gazillion software based reasons for an OS crash, especially with a buggy release like Android 12. Not sure if you participated the beta, but it reminded me of Windows 11. There was a buggy beta build with about 100 bugs, they fixed 20, called it a day and released it. Now we new P6 owners can play beta testers Volume 2 for Google.

One very important thing here is also: Did you guys set up your phone "clean" or did you copy over your old phone by cable or did you use backup?

Any of these things can cause issues.

I, for example, used a cable to transfer all file and apps from my P4 XL to my P6 Pro. It's possible that this is the rootcause for some issues, or maybe it's not. Maybe there are even problems that occur only if you transfer your files from specific phone models to this one, you never know.
[Google Pixel 6 Pro] copong:
Sure, but the OP stated the crashes are happening right after a factory reset, and anecdotal evidence on this thread suggests it's not widespread. It does point to some sort of hardware problem.
