[Q] Looking for a Smart Screen Lock App - HTC One X

Hi there,
So I was looking for an app and done some searches but cant seem to see one out there. I`d thought I would post here as if there isnt one it could be a pet project for someone
Basically the app I am looking does this:
When on my local wifi network the screen lock is a simple pull down. However, when I venture outside it becomes a pattern/pin based lock screen.
So I wondered if there is an app out there that meets these prerequisites?
Thanks for reading!

You could try app like tasker. search on google.it is an app which will perform certain tasks on certain conditions being fulfilled.

Are you on JB ? Flash the Alex V S2W kernel, then you can turn the phone on and off by sweeping the touchbuttons !

LG Touch LED Notifications (Updated to Support Nitro!!)

Hello all,
I am creating this thread since we all at one point had a discussion regarding having some kind of notification alert on our phones the moment we achieve Unlock.
Well guess what, Xigzil aka MARTIN BÖRJESSON has an app on the market called LG 2X/Black/3D Notifications. I've installed this on the phone, and unfortunately, it does fully support the phone yet to work properly. I've reached to Xigzil and he will try to help and update his app so it will work with our phone but he will be needing our help. Since he does not have the phone, he will need things from us, so let's do our best to help Xigzil in achieving this.
For now, this will just be placeholder until he has decided to visit us here. Hopefully it won't be long
App has been UPDATED!! Nitro is now supported, download it here: LG Touch LED Notifications
What unlock?
/me confused.

Bootloader sir....we had a long discussion over here about notification LED remember, n there was some consensus that it would be the first thing to do once we achieve an unlock bootloader

UPDATE!!
So Xigzil has just updated his app!! It is now called LG Touch LED Notifications since it supports much much more LG phones, including our dear LG Nitro HD (P930)! I have not tried it just yet, just noticed that the update kicked in and that one of the supported phones is the Nitro. So go download it and give it a try and let us know how it is!
You can download it here: LG Touch LED Notifications
To Admin/Chris: Please move this thread to either General or Themes/Apps as it no longer pertains to a development effort. Thank you.
Hmm. Not sure whether I like it or not. I though maybe it'll be a fade in and out kind of effect but it just blinks. And all three buttons blink. Going to keel it for a while and see if its really useful.

I thought the same thing too. I guess it's kind of useful if I just have my phone on the table and I'm staring at something else, until it starts blinking and gains my attention. I do think however fade options would be fantastic, and if only one button would light up.
Maybe something like Gmail - Menu button
SMS - Home button
Other - Back button
Moved to general as asked. Don't forget, if you need me just send me a pm.

Is the ability to control each of those buttons individually built into the software, though? I mean, I thought it was all or nothing when it came to the button LED's.
eh, no K9 and google voice support

Yeah all or nothing for the buttons. Atleast we have some kind of notification now for the Nitro/Optimus LTE !
I like putting my phone face down so the speaker is up. Would it be possible for a notification app to blink the camera's LED flash?

Lol! [email protected], that's exactly the same thing that's on this thread, the same app made by the same guy
Liteon, to answer your question, I use this: Flashlight Notifier
It basically flashes the camera's LED when something triggers it. You can set it however you want, and the pattern on how the LED flashes too. It's very cool, but mind you, they flash really really bright, so in a dark area, expect people to jump out of their skin when this thing goes off lol!
I use both LG touch Notification and the Flashlight Notifier on this phone, so I can see the notification regardless of how you face your phone.

App for restarting phone

Is there an app which can restart the phone but without rooting the phone..
Why do you need that ? Just press and hold the power button for a few second, the Phone options will pop-up, just choose restart to restart the device.

This application does not actually reboot it just refreshes the phone..it's not even close to rebooting I am using this app from par three days it's basic function is to free up the space in RAM..try it out u'll know
Why do you even need to reboot your phone that much?

You could Quick Boot if you wish. Can also reboot straight to recovery and bootloader. Unfortunately I can't link to it as I've only recently joined XDA.

I dun reboot that much..Just once a day..but I dun want my power button to get depressed because I have to rely on unlocking on the same button..which gets pressed quite a lot of times...
Also if you could suggest me some widgets or apps that can help me to lock my phone..I used extended controls which was not a great experience because when I unlocked the screen remained black till I switched on to some other application ..

I don't think it will harm the proximity sensor, it just that I don't like to see a red light on the proximity sensor light up when using this app as I guess it use more battery...and that's maybe the reason why they have a time-out to kill the app after certain time. Once the app is killed, you still need to press power on. Anyhow, this is my personal opinion only, nothing against the app; I maybe wrong.

Thanks tell me since when are you using this phone??do you find your power button by any chance pressed inside even a little??Also I dun think that it uses much battery as the Statistics posted by the App developer state..it would be great if someone would throw some light on it though..

Since Apr 3rd, two days after the HOX officially launched in my country. Do not really notice that, maybe because I seldom use the power button as my device is rooted, using quick boot for reboot, reboot to bootloader & recovery, swipe to power on and so on.
Why are you even rebooting once a day? It isn't necessary and will solve all of your problems.

Tv off effect

Is it possible to get the tube tv effect when I put my screen to sleep on the stock rom?
??
Its called crt animation and not on stock roms! Im sure in time there will be a custom rom that will contain that soon
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Try this
There's an app that I used on my TF101. It is a shortcut that locks your screen with a variety of effects:
Screen off and lock
It's free in the Play Store. No root required.
I dont want a custom rom on this phone.

my bad, I meant to reply to tyshemi, not you. I did install that app. It does not work with the power button, and the animation is not as nice..=
The CRT off animation doesn't play well with JB from what I've seen a couple devs say, which is why it isn't even on the custom ROMs, so chances of getting it on a regular phone are slim and none I'd say.

I never said it worked with the power button. It's an icon you can tap; might actually be nicer. But I'm sorry to hear that you don't like it as much!

Thanks for the info. I kind of like the tv static plus crt close.
I have the off button on my screen now. For when I actually remember to use it, vs muscle memory of hitting the physical button.

No problem! Just a word of caution - When I use this in combination with WidgetLocker the unlock doesn't work. I had to turn the screen off with the power button then it worked again. Most likely caused by the way that WidgetLocker is an app and not a system function.

I just saw this yesterday on xda news. Requires kitkat tho.

It might be what you're looking for. However, I have never tried it and I don't know if it will work for huawei p6. I'm not sure if it works with double tapping screen... but I assume that it should since it is imitating the moto x lockscreen.
EDIT: On google play now. No need for root I think.

The Active notification feature requires AMOLED screen for best performance, while Huawei devices don't use AMOLED screen. And its not the same as LG's tap to wake feature, which is compatible with our device.
