Another stupid question?
Why does the touch key duration keep truning off?
FYI
It is AT$T drive mode app that is triggering this problem.

Haven't had this issue personally, but you can always just disable drivemode with Package Disabler Pro, unless you use drive mode, of course.

Yes I have used that software to disable stuff but I do you drive mode. Is a great software for the most part.

I'm on Bonsai 3.01 and it seems to be random whether it clears or not. I did notice if I hear the 3G beep after I boot then TWS stays near 0% and if I don't hear it after boot I get 50% so when I don't hear it I do the airplane mode toggle.
You have to cycle airplane mode after each boot. I use tasker to do it automaticaly but its a paid app, well worth it for all you can do with it tho.

Is there another app that can auto toggle airplane mode? I don't want to buy a $6.45 app when I only want that one specific function.

Not sure but tasker can do a lot more. For example when I get in my car it shuts down my Wifi turns on my gps and prompts me to select which music app I want to listen to.

I'm reading the description and don't see whether it's automated or not. Can you set it to flip at boot? There are tons of manual toggle widgets and that's not what I want.
If your running a custom rom couldn't you create a shell script to run from init.d ?

I already have Unknown Sources checked. I was able to download third party apps in the past. Now when i try to install third party apps, on the installation screen it will not let me press the "install" button and nothing happens. So i have to press the "cancel" button. Anybody else experience this and know whats wrong?

If you installed screen adjuster, turn it off. It is a bug of the app.
what exactly do you mean by a screen adjuster app? An app that gets you new wallpaper, a app that adjusts brightness, or an app that adjusts the color/gamma? Which one?

How bout a reboot?
When you open an apk file to install the app, do you get a list of options of which installer to use?

I power off my phone often and that has no effect.
yes. When you open the apk you get a list of which installers to use. I tried both installers and i could not get any third party apks to install.

Awesome!!! I couldn't figure this out for the life of me. I had to manually update my Note 3 to Kit Kat in which it wiped my phone, so I lost a bunch of 3rd party apps that I needed to reinstall. One of the new apps my buddy recommended during the in between time of me setting back up my phone was called "Twilight", a app to take the blues out and allow for more dimming of the screen for a better sleep before bed because of all those new studies saying the screen messes with melatonin levels and causes technology hangovers lol. A quick uninstall of that app and bam, it let me press the install button.

My son added the I am groot app to his sprint samsung galaxy s3 and now the phone won't do anything! I can't even boot into safe mode. I just want to uninstall this as quickly as possible. HOW??
I assume its the xPosed module that makes all text on your phone some variation of "I am Groot"? If it is, if you go to the app list, there should be an emblem of Groot's head. That's the settings menu for it, then turn it off. I believe there's a slider switch, but otherwise uncheck the boxes and it should work.

Safe mode is regularly booted by holding down the volume down key while booting. It prevents apps from autostarting while booting or just after it finishes booting. Can help with virus removal.

What's with the fingerprint sensor? I thought it was to allow you into your phone at will. although many times I use it I still have to enter a pin. thanks

Not always.
Do you use an app or the like to turn your screen off or lock your phone?
Yes. Just tested that. Using app requires pin. Using button or letting go of itself. No pin. No way to get around this?

A little confused by your wording. What do you mean by "using app requires pin"? Using app for what?
For me, the only time it requires me to use my pattern is after a restart and after disconnecting a Bluetooth device that is listed under Smart Lock.
Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk
For example I use a tasker gesture on the screen to lock my phone and at that point I use my fingerprint to turn on the phone but the pin screen appears so I have to enter my pin first and then it unlocks.

For what I know, only if you turn your screen off with the power button the fingerprint scanner will unlock your phone immediatly afterwards.
Then I guess the question would be what app can mimic a power button press so that I can continue using gestures and or background apps to turn off the screen? Or forego using the fingerprint scanner?

If you are rooted this is super simple with tasker...
Create a new task with whatever name you want.
Select the Code Action Category.
Select Run Shell Code Action.
In the Command input type:
Code:
input keyevent 26
Check the Use Root box.
Leave all other options untouched.
Then use that Task for your gesture. Note that at some point Tasker is going to ask for root privileges. You obviously need to grant them to it.
Enjoy...

You're overcomplicating it. See this post. You don't have to use tasker. You can use at least one widget plus launcher gestures as long as you have root, and it works.

Yep, the Tasker Task I wrote is really, really complicated. The op is going to **** a brick when he sees that he would need to use Tasker to do what he is already using Tasker to do but this time it will work.

"the basic idea is quite simple, but some people tend to overcomplicate it"
Again, the Tasker Task is as simple as they come. It would take longer for the op to download that app than make the task. And considering he is using Tasker to turn the phone off with a gesture, he would still have to create a task to run the app. That, sport, is overcomplicating it.
