[Q] Disabling Doubletap to Zoom

Hey guys,
Is there a way to disable Doubletap to Zoom feature on Desire or Galaxy Tab? Cause i need to work on some programs which requires some double clicks and zooming while trying to double click is very very annoying.
Hope you can show me a way.

I think this is only possible in application settings, if app supports such function.

Why disable it...it's such a useful function. I think in Opera mobile there is option one tap to zoom...

[Trick] Quick open camera

I found this trick in one of the tips and tricks videos on youtube and have not seen it mentioned anywhere else so thought maybe many people didnt know about it, since tips and tricks are posted all the time here and there, and every time there are people who didnt know about it.
This one was one of my favorites of the many thare are..... anyways...
push the home button, or the power button when the screen is off WHILE holding the phone in portrait, then place a finger on the lock screen, NOW rotate the entire phone to landscape and walla, camera

Yep, saw that one on one of those annoying tips that pop up every ½ second when you first start up the phone. There is a bunch of stuff you can do if you go into the motion settings

Or I could just swipe the camera at the bottom on the lock screen...lol. I couldn't get this to work. Maybe I don't have it activated.

You dont have to activate it in motion settings. You cant turn it off. You can remove the camera shortcut on the lock screen and put something usefull there

You do and you can. There's an option for Quick Camera Start under Lock Screen Settings.
By the way, I find that the camera crashes if it's in video mode when I launch it via quick-start rotate gesture. But if it's in still-photo mode, or if I launch it by swiping the lock-screen camera icon instead of by the rotate gesture, then it starts normally.

Doesn't crash for me when I use the gesture when the camera is in video mode. I love the gesture and removed the camera quick launch icon.

[Q] Touch Zoom on lock screen legally blind could use some help.

Hello all,
I was just wondering if anyone knew of a way to enable magnification gestures or as LG is calling it "touch zoom" on the lock screen. For anyone who does not know what this feature is, it is a screen magnifier built into android that can be enabled from the accessibility menu. It lets the user triple tap with one finger to zoom the screen in on any app on the phone, for example if you needed to see what the app icon text is on the home screen you would triple tap and hold and the screen would zoom in and fallow your finger as you move it around the screen. On my nexus 7 and gs4 this worked on the lock screen, unfortunately it seems LG has disabled this feature on their lock screen. My first thought was knock on was causing the problem so I enabled the verizon hidden menu and disabled it unfortunately this did not help. I am rooted and am willing to try any suggestions. My only other thought would be to get in contact with the dev of g3 tweakbox because he seems to know a lot about the LG's implantation of android.
thanks in advance!

It works if you have a slide lock screen, but that's not very useful :/

[Q] Completely disable google now "swipe up"? (root)

I am trying to disable the softkey nav for the purpose of using pie controls.
I am able to disable the softkey by editing the build.prop, but the problem is pie controls are useless because when I swipe up from the bottom of my screen, the google now "swipe" is shown rather than pie controls.
Does anyone know how to completely disable this action from being registered? I've searched all over for it but couldn't find anything. I'm not interested in disabling google now from being the option when I swipe up, I am interested in completely disabling anything from happening when I swype up.

Hi
I am trying to do the same, but i didn't get any way in forum. I guess that using xposed module is possible to disable... But it is still unestable, and I prefer to wait for good release...
I hope someone else give us a solution...

Wrist Gestures working for you?

So I've been trying out the wrist gesture feature which seems cool, but is it just me or does only some of the Gestures work? If I shake the watch it, the display comes on, I can scroll through cards but that's it, no other Gestures work?
Is this the same for everyone? Wondering if my watch is faulty.

gesture are just for :
- activate screen , normal movement use
- scrool card up and down
nothing else

You've been looking at the google help pages for android wear? The other gestures will come with 1.4.
Gestures on google help pages.
