[?] For those with a flip cover case - One (M7) Accessories

If you use an app for smart cover functionality, which do you use and how well does it function? If you monitor battery stats, does it signicantly drain it?

try "Cover Algorithm" or "Smart Cover Lite(Screen off)both working quite well for me.
I tried half a dozen other and they did not work properly.

Is there any app that makes the screen on automatically when the flip cover is opened??

Yup it is indeed a great app

i've been using intellicover, free and ad free. but i will check out gravity screen off.

I've been using Cover algorithm, and it's working accurately with my flip cover. Tried other apps on the market and they are not accurate.

I also tried cover algorithm thanks to mig97 and it works flawlessly. :good:

Power saving features?

Hello on sense 3.5 you could set mobile data to auto switch off when phone not been used for while. But on sense 4 you dont have the option well I cant find it and my data is switching off when battery passes 50% and only comes back on when I unlock phone. Is there away to stop this?
Its a pain when using chat apps like liveprofile.

Anyway wifi CAN be fixed with "Wifi High Performance" widget from the market.
But mobile data cannot..
Apparently it has to do with ICS and it's very strange that only few have been complaining about it.

Did you find the power saver settings ?
1) install / run 'gesture search'
2) draw the word S E T T I N G S on screen
3) you will then see the 'power saver settings' - select this.
You can also find other hidden menus...try drawing T E S T I N G

[Q] SILENT LOCKSCREEN (feature from Moto x)

I love the new feature from new Google-Motorola phone "Moto X". The new "Silent Lockscreen Notification" feature is so neat, nice, useful...
I just love it
Unfortunately I am not a developer, so I don't have the skills to port it to our HOX but, wouldn't it be a great feature to have?
Youtube /watch?v=lbGmfk8yaZU, sorry i am not allowed to post external links as a newbie in XDA
The lockscreen feature is presented at 2 minute 30s mark.
:fingers-crossed:
What do you think? Would you like to see this feature in your Custom ROM?
Cheers

Not totally useless, only a bit more power consuming because the whole display would have to be activated instead only of part of it.
But screen would only glow in intervals (you could slow down the interval) when new notification arrives and when you take it out of pocket or flip it downside up with use of proximity sensor.
Bu yes, i agree, our battery is already a bit week.. :/
Seems pretty neat
Porting it to sense is impossible duo to sense framework work.
How ever its possible to port it to aosp if the necessary sources are out....
IMO its useless because its a battery sucker
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
there is an app called NoLED from the play store that does something somewhat similar. its not the same thing but it does give you a floating notification on the screen and tells you what app its from.
And yeah, LCD screens will use more power and will prevent the phone from properly sleeping. You can tune it to only turn on the screen if you flip it over.
Or you can use Active Notifications,it's verry verry similar to the Moto X:

Posted without reading the app description. When this app came out it only worked on 4.3 devices but now it works on the One X. Best to use with Low brightness.
Or you can create a Tasker profile that will make your screen pulse every few minutes until you dismiss the notification...

Hi works really well to turn on/off screen,but when you have it enabled for WiFi also it gets a bit confusing.when you swipe to unlock screen great,hold hand for 2 seconds great WiFi comes on but when you want to just turn off WiFi it turns off screen no matter and you need to swipe screen back on and turn off WiFi manually as it always turns off screen before you turn off wifi,not a complaint just an ob but a really great app
many thanks am using it to turn my screen on and off.

New update information
Hey guys I actually fixed a lot of stuff I did a lot of changes but some things are still delaying me from being able to release the new update.
Actually new update may be possible to be seen by the end of this week.
As long as I am working on it alone it is really hard for me and I am giving it, all the free time I have I spend a lot of nights on it.
So if you guys would be that kind please consider some small donation. I want to buy S4 to see how the things are going on it. Or an HTC One so I can test the app on powerful device and improve it more and faster. Or just buy me a coffee or a donut. Many thanks, many thanks.
I would really appreciate it and I'll give you credits in the OP
Note: If anyone made a donation, PM me. Thanks.

Sweeping Second Hand

Now the Facer app has been updated with a sweeping second hand does anyone know how to activate it? Any advice gratefully received.
enable it in settings
and add #DWFSS# to the second hand on the face(s) you want to use.
code for non-smooth seconds is #DWFS#

even when enabled with the tag and setting checked, it kinda sweeps and skips...i end up going back to regular ticks.

It looks the the movement of a lower jewel automatic movement. I think it looks great. Closely look at a 17 jewel older movement, and you will see it is not smooth sweeping either. Even the best automatic movements have a slight tick to them if you stare. There are only a few watches that truly sweep. The tuning fork Accutron movements, Bulova Precisionist, and I believe the spring drive Seiko. There may be more.
I love the new sweeping motion in Facer - looks awesome on my Moto360! No battery issues so far, will report back.

Same here. Not smooth at all. Even when smooth second hand is checked in settings.
Just picked up the WatchMaker beta - they have just added smooth second hands!!
The sweeping is VERY smooth - way more than Facer - they claim something like 30+ frames per sec as they use a gaming engine for rendering.
The pain for Facer and WatchMaker is that I want all my watches to use sweeping without changing the tags to drss each time - does anyone know how to do this?

Battery life has been soo much better then stock rom kicking it at about 10hrs screen on time maybe more. Currently at 11% but ot should be another 1 hour of sot with my luck.

Sorry but the power consumption for that usage is pretty low (unless you are streaming or playing music [while screen is off] behind the scene for 5 hours or more =D) so stock ROM can easily surpass that.

Stock is awesome for battery life, but I'm curious about how things would be with either Slim or Cm13. On WiFi I'd get even more, but might as well use my unlimited data.
There was a constant wake lock on the 12-31 build. If you're getting 9 hrs screen time, it's likely they fixed it in the latest nightly. Excellent. I read in the other thread about VoLTE in *#*#4636000#*#* toggle. Has that worked for anyone else yet?
Is anyone else getting no touchscreen upon boot?
Deal breaker for me was its lack of color control. Default white balance and color balance is just way far off.

Happened to me on the first boot but after holding the power button and rebooting it seemed to work.
Is everyone else still having the leaving wifi > no LTE issue? I've tried all sorts APN and preferred network settings and it happens much less but still getting it occasionally.
Also still not getting GPS lock on in device only (usually means hardware GPS not working). Funny though, it still works about 95% using turn by turn navigation so maybe GPS is just weak/slow.

I did a full wipe before installing and the IR blaster is working great for me on this build! I was not able to get it working on the CM Superluminal build for some reason. Really liking this ROM so far!!
What is the restriction of the issue "selinux permissive mode"? Is it only relevant if you use root? Will the fingerprint unlock work if you have root turned off?

It's weird how the IR blaster functionality seems to vary so much. I was having issues at one point using IR on CM but I ended up doing a clean flash with the Slim build and it's working now. Battery life seems much better on this build over CM also.
I was finally able to get a log dump of the extreme slowdown while disconnecting from Bluetooth. Hope this helps. Thanks!
