is there an app that adjusts volume and brightness by swiping up or down on the sides of the tablet?
same feature that exists in popular media players, Dice Player to name one.
+1 for this. MX Player and Aldiko do it, it would be awesome to be able to do it everywhere. I think an Xposed module would be the best implementation for this.

I have a gesture set in gmd gesture control to pop up the volume slider and pulling down the notification bar is quick enough for brightness.
wouldn't that be in the way the way you describe it? It should at least be a 2 - finger swipe I think.

I have a gesture to bring up volume but can figure out how to do it to bring up brightness toggle directly.... Any ideas? Using GMD of course.
Is there a way to disable the soft keys when the keyboard is in use ? External desktop does not take.

Well if you flash a custom rom some have a navbar toggle for the notification pull down. You might be able to use tasker to set something up like that as in when the keyboard pops navbar hides then show back up after it's closed, but I'm not too sure as I haven't used it myself. Aside from manually toggling it I'd say that would be your best bet. I know for a fact that blisspop has the toggle.

Anybody know a way to use gesture control or active Edge to control the flashlight? I was using button mapper but apparently it does not work anymore. I swear I was on the same version ...25. I use the same steps as last time when I had it working. But after flashing factory images because I retardedly used substratum it isn't working.
I want to use third-part tools to activate one-hand mode like Tasker etc.
So if there is any shortcut to do this?

Is there any way you came across a way to do this? I want to do it in Tasker too.
NOTE: On a rooted device, this is the fastest, most reliable and problem-free method for remapping Bixby (no limitations, no setup)
Button Mapper allows you to remap any action you want to physical or capacitive hardware buttons. This includes volume buttons, Bixby button, and many buttons on game controllers and other hardware you attach to your phone.
You can map shortcuts, apps or actions to single press, double tap and long press for hardware buttons.
The Bixby button on the Galaxy S9 and S9+ is supported as of version 0.62
Bixby remapping of single, double and long press is completely free. No ads. Pro version not required.
Does not require root. If your device is rooted, you will have many more options (essentially unlimited). Also with root, Bixby remapping does not involve any hacks, it is implemented at the input level (native).
This does require an adb command to remap Bixby on unrooted devices. It's a one-time setup. I do not use the method used by other apps because it leads to a poor user experience (i.e. swiping right causes actions to occur, get stuck in a loop)
This app is continually updated with new features and improvements.
Download on XDA Labs:
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/flar2.homebutton
.
Big update update on the way soon.
You can remap all Bixby stuff for free with this app, and it has the most options of any remapping app.
I'm looking for volunteers to translate. Go to this link if interested

To click the shutter? You can do that with select/enter action, but it requires root.

I've deleted the bixby services without know that the remap apps wouldn't work anymore
This app doesn't work either.

It's the only way to detect Bixby since Samsung bypassed the usual Linux input system..
thanks for this app. works great!
Hi
Thanks for this great app.
I use pro version.
Does it possible to remap back, home and recent soft keys on S9 ?

I don't think so. It's definitely not possible using the methods used by this app.
So...people don't like free stuff? Should I make you guys pay for double press and long press?
Nice job with this app man. Very easy to turn on flashlight and get to google assistant. I'll be unlocking the pro version in a little bit.
It also appears that, even though I am not rooted, the bixby button works to turn on my flashlight while I'm on the AOD so that is SUPER helpful.
UPDATE!!
Version 0.74 has lots of new goodies. It's rolling out slowly on the Play Store, if you want it now you can download from XDA Labs:
https://labs.xda-developers.com/store/app/flar2.homebutton
-Menu action is now available without root
-Pause and resume remapping from notification, quick settings or public intents that can be used with Tasker or other automation apps
-If you use the notification, you can now change the priority
-Option to turn on screen with screen off actions, so if you launch an app with the screen off, the screen will automatically turn on (requires Pro version)
-Zello PTT toggle and hold actions (requires Pro version). This allows you to either set a button to toggle send, or hold the volume up or down button to talk
-Copy and paste actions
-Option to use VOICE_ASSIST for assistant
-Restore autobrightness when using brightness actions
-Fix shortcut bug
-Many other bugfixes and improvements
-Update translations
Here are the intents to pause and resume remapping. The first is a toggle, the other two explicitly pause or resume remapping. Use whichever best fit your needs.
flar2.homebutton.TOGGLE_REMAPPING
flar2.homebutton.PAUSE_REMAPPING
flar2.homebutton.RESUME_REMAPPING

Screenshot sound toggle doesn't work for me on Galaxy S9+
Can we also have an option to disable bixby single tap when the device is locked or in always on display mode?

Screenshot sound toggle only works for my screenshot implementation. It can't be controlled on the native screenshot (I assume you're rooted)

Sorry didn't get your point. How can choose your screenshot implementation? There is only one screenshot action available in the list.

If rooted, it uses the built-in screenshot. If not rooted, it uses my own custom screenshot because I can't access the built in one. The built-in is preferable to the custom screenshot, but there is no control over the sound in the built in screenshot.
