long press on lock screen slider to turn on light - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

Hello folks! I've tried searching but cant find what I'm looking for, maybe I'm just not searching with the right words but non the less,, I would appreciate help. Back when I was a flash-o-hollic ( going to meetings now ) I remember flashing a non touch wiz rom that had an option to long press on the lock screen slider and turn the torch light on and the off when you let go. I miss that function and would love to have it back. I'm on Slim Bean right now. If anyone can help or point me in the right direction to have back that feature I would thank you!

Suggestion for new fullscreen mod.

Hi, i didn't want to make trash of development section so I came here to ask or suggest of making mod that will allow us to use 100% of the screen without any on screen buttons visible.
I know that there is a mod that is doing same thing, but it's uncomfortable to use. (You press on the screen corner and then on screen buttons magically appear)
So here's my suggestion how could it work.
You will have to put your finger under the screen on the left, right or center depending on which action you want to launch. Then swype your finger up and release it.
For example I want to go back from settings so I press back button:
I put finger on the bottom left of the phone and then swype it up to the screen and release it.
If any developer could make that kind of gesture readable by phone, and attach it to a proper action would be great
Sorry for my "not best English" I tried how I could to present my idea most clearly.
And please don't say that screen is big enough so this kind of mod is unnecessary..
Edit: See attached image below

This actually has been suggested before and I thought it was a really good idea, but the majority of the community ripped the OP of the other thread a new one and told him to just use button savior or LMT launcher or something. It was pretty messed up. Hopefully we can actually get that sooner or later!
I completely agree. I use LMT, but it seems like it would be more convenient the way you suggested. Also less accidental presses if you swiped from the bottom.

I thought of extending lmt to support also that feature. But I would more see completely configurable touch/swipe areas. They could be placed on the left, right and also at the bottom. What do you think?

Have a look at GMD gesture control. It does exactly what you want
I also did that for myself.

Thank you for comments
I've attached image showing my idea (go to first post), so everything is clear now. I'm sure you can't do this with LMT.

I've just installed lite version of GMD gesture tool and it seems to work
Unfortunately, to use custom gestures I will have to buy full/paid version but it's worth it's money!!
Yeah its really worth the money
I tried your way of gestures and it works a hundred precent
i like the idea
now i use button savior (not good as your idea)

It's very accurate. Even if someone is having problems, try to recalibrate borders, changing border detection area and gesture size
I found this apk very useful on my Motorola Defy to activate recent apps by swyping from the top of the screen

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0

I'm not sure about the second question, but for the first:
You must have enabled custom lockscreen targets in settings -> rom control -> lock screen accidently, this removes google now and camera from the lockscreen, you can reset this by going to custom targets and pressing the reset button in the top-right corner
Good luck, Jake
Edit: for the third question, what's your input language?

gesture or better shake to unlock screen

hi all guys, i'm messin' around witih roms and now i'm quite happy with slimkat (actually can't post in the development forum)
trying to find out something like the old touchcontrol/pgm app (official thread locked) in order to switch on screen without pressing power or volume button; there are options in the slimkat rom so you can manage specific app with shaking horizontally or vertically, and i tried to set "home" with shaking, but it won't go: probably it's me, but this could be a very useful feature to me.
so how do you switch on screen on your device starting from black? thanks
