[Q] Auto Redial - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Im using an Australian HTC One M8.
Android 5.0.1
Sense 6.0
Software 4.19.841.5
and am looking for the Auto Redial function that i found on the Verizon M8 version
http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-95975/
Auto Retry
From a Home screen, tap Apps Apps icon (located at the bottom).
Tap Settings.
Note If unavailable, tap the dropdown menu Apps dropdown menu icon (located in the upper left) then tap Alphabetical. If still unavailable, refer to Manage App Icons.
From the DEVICE section, tap Call.
From the OTHER CALL SETTINGS section, tap Auto retry to enable/disable.
Note Enabled when a check mark is present.
I'd prefer to use the function embedded in the firmware, rather than an app.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks

[Q+A] Long tap to select, double tap to toggle?

Hi,
I've bought an used LG Pad 8.3 which was resetted to default configuration.
For me it's behaviour is very strange. One has to tap long on a widget or button to select and to tap twice to choose it. And a voice tells me all the time what I'm doing...
Because of this behaviour I can't scroll through lists so I am not able to reach any option below "Security" in the settings. I even cannot see the firmware version which is installed.
What do I have to do to get the standard behaviour?
Thx a lot
Asellus
Solved: TalkBack
I have found a way to scroll down and found TalkBack. After switching it off the pad works as expected.

Question on how to set up which settings appear in the "quick settings" area

Question on how to set up which settings appear in the "quick settings" area
I may not be referring to the "Quick Settings" area by the proper name, but it's the group of settings available when you pull down from the notification bar twice. On my HTC One M8, there were a number of options to select from, and I could choose which settings I wanted there, and in what order. The settings in there included things like WiFi, Bluetooth, Airplane Mode, Auto Rotate, Brightness, Sound Profile, DND, etc. In the current analogous area for the HTC 10 some, but not all, of the settings I'd like to be able to control appear, and I see no way to change the selection, or even to change the arrangement of the settings that do appear.
I'm sure there's a way to change the settings that appear, and the order they appear in. Can someone who has figured this out please share the secret?
Thanks!
Nope.....

Question about specific notification and also Xposed Module

I am currently running leedroid rom on my HTC 10.
1. I am constantly on wifi networks, and am constantly switching wifi networks. Because of this, I am constantly getting the notification on my lockscreen and status bar that reads "Connected to xxxx wireless network". Is there any way to permanently disable this and any other system notifications?
2. I am also running Xposed framework with the module Android N-ify. One thing I have noticed is that the "Clear All" button for notifications does not work anymore. What actually appears to be happening is that by default there is one button to clear all which is part of the rom, but then the android N-ify module tries to change that. So if I look closely, I can see that there are two "Clear all" buttons stacked on top of each other.
When I had Xposed I used a module called NotifyClean. Worked pretty well for blocking certain notifications. If I recall you would have to block each "Connected to xxx network" notification once, for every time you connect to a new network. Else you would have to block all notifications from "System", which you may not want to do.
Another user also mentioned an app called Notifications Off which you can find on the Play Store. Looks similar to NotifyClean.

Single tap to swipe option is gone!

Hello everybody,
Soon after getting the Pie update, after the first security small update, i noticed that on my wife's Galaxy S9 the setting "Single tap to swipe" option is gone. Anybody else having this problem ?
Thanks!
Same here. I have also preferred tap instead of swipe... Definitely i am going to change this Samsung brand...
Mee too! I'm very angry...
LOL, you guys break me up, so fickle that you'll change phones because of single tap to swipe feature missing. There is no way you could have even liked the phone if you'll drop it for this.
Same on S9+. It worked on One UI security patch January 1, but it is gone after February 1 update.
Lame, I thought my phone got stuck, took me few days until I tried to swipe, LOL...
I am used to end the call with Power key but never got the hang of using the Volume up key for answering calls, so I just used tap instead of swipe.
Now I guess I am doomed.
My workaround will be to try to get used to using Bixby key for answering calls since bxActions app has such an option.
Until they break that with some update also.
On Note 9 still working after the last update, hope they will not mess with it.
For some reason in latest update they moved it under: Interaction and dexterity -> assistant menu -> Single tap to swipe ....
but now i am stuck with useless menu on my screen (kept only one option in the menu) but when disabling the menu - single tap stops working
Thanks kabangena, with your help i found it. I have set the maximum transparency to the small assistant menu and i moved it in the upper right corner. I cannot see the icon anymore. It's a temporary fix, hope Samsung will do something about it.

same here , but it's still very annoying
Is anyone solved the issue, even with the third-party app? That's really annoying; why don't left that useful option "as is"?
You can hide the assistant menu by long press on it and a circle with "X Hide Here" appears in top center of the screen, drag it into the circle. This hides assistant menu in the notification panel. You have to see the notification every time you swipe down to open the panel, but it is completely hidden from the home screen.

Except, after the screen closes and I hit Home to open it again, this little piece of worthless junk is back.
I'd just leave it somewhere and ignore this POS, but it covers parts of apps that I regularly use.
Why do people think that deleting functionality is a good thing?
Finally I found the solution (not a permanent but still affordable).
- turn Settings->Accessibility->Interaction and dexterity->Assistant menu on and (inside "Assistant menu") set Single tap to swipe is on
- weird floating icon should appear but don't worry
- go to Settings->Apps, press "3 dots" in the top right corner and tap on Show system apps
- find an app called Accessibility, tap on, scroll all way down and remove Appear on top advanced permission (I've also disabled Change system setting)
- now scroll up, and tap on Force stop button
Weird button will disappear and re-appear after reboot only (you should repeat last step again after reboot but it's OK, I believe so)
Enjoy!
P.S. Thanks to user drmusou for his post.
[UPDATE] There is a permanent solution! Set Single tap to swipe option and disable package com.samsung.accessibility by Package Disabler Pro+ (Samsung).
Or just with ADB shell:
c:\adb>adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.samsung.accessibility
If you tap and hold the assistant menu you will have the option to hide it " it will re appear after reboot" but can do the same again ?

Themes / Apps / Mods [APP] Quick Tap App to change Ringer (Vibrate/Silent) for P6/P6P

Hey everyone,
So since Google removed the PWR+VolUp button combo to put phones into vibrate and require multiple clicks, I had previously found the suggestion to use Quick Tap with a mute app.
Since I'm personally more of a VIBRATE person (and no app exists), I created a quick and dirty app to cycle through NORMAL -> VIBRATE -> SILENT
Instructions are simple:
Install the build apk under Releases
Under Settings -> System -> Gestures -> Quick Tap to start action -> Open App, select 'Shhh"
On first use/update, it may request notification permissions (if not granted already)
Double tap back of phone to cycle through the 3 notification options (Toast notifications will also notify you of current setting)
Let me know any suggestions or bugs so I can fix it. I've only tried it on the Pixel 6 Pro running A12/A12L
Cheers!
This seems to be working exactly as you described. I am running the P6P on 12L.
Isn't simpler to tap on the bell icon above the volume slider?
a Tasker task does the trick as well....of course you need Tasker

This is a fantastic idea. Nicely done . I come from the OnePlus phones the past 5 years and kind of missing the physical toggle switch they all had. This is a good replacement.
