Edit: Got enough internal testers, thanks! A live version will be up soon.

Pmd

Sir. If you want to test on note 10 plus exonious let me know:good:

I know you are full but would be happy to help if a spot opens up. Really appreciate your work and it really looks awesome!

can't wait to see how this thing works.

I would like to make a suggestion.
I tried it, and I like it. However, during charging, on the lock screen, there should be an option to show or not show the ring. Right now, I use a black screen saver to save my screen from burn-in (the lower part showing the charge percentage), but with the app, the ring remains when the black screen saver is running, which kind of defeating my original intent to save the screen.
Other than that, it is a very cool app.

Now to disable the stock battery icon...

Got it, love it. Have it set up for 4 different colors at 4 different percentages and honestly, it's really cool. I dont need my battery percent on my active notification panel so my upper-screen looks less clittered!

Pretty sure you can do this with GoodLock (from the Samsung Store) and one of its plugins. It allows you to show/hide all of the system icons and move the clock around.
The plugin you want is called QuickStar.
I just tried this App for the S10 linked in the OP and love the idea. It would also be a great notification indicator, as I noticed the S10s no longer have a status LED.
May be nice to somehow incorporate a numeric percentage somewhere, maybe above the camera hole where there is dead space.

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded GoodLock, but can't seem to find the QuickStar plugin. I find the plugin through the Galaxy Store, and not through the GoodLock app, right?

HTC Widget for Brightness?

Is there an HTC widget available for brightness? I am usually on auto, but at times I need to change it. It is a lot of swipes to do so in the interface.
I know there are some in market, but all the ones I see dont work with the auto setting.
the Power widget will let you adjust brightness from auto>full>minimum.
Weather & Toggle Widgets has an awesome brightness widget.
SwitchPro has a nice configurable widget bar, I like it better than Powerstrip.
It does, cost .99 where Powerstrip is free, but you can always refund if you end up not liking it.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/alei.switchpro
edit: Powerstrip doesn't work with auto brightness anyway, SwitchPro does.
i use brigtness level widget. it's got a slider and predefined quick settings.
Thanks for the suggestions, guys. Will try them out.

I'm not quite finished it but I've been editing a widget I got in the Market to match the style of the HTC ones. I'm a complete noob at the process so I've been going in circles but am nearly done. I'll be happy to send it to you when I'm done.

Here is the basic design:
The images were the easy part. Getting them to show up on the home screen correctly has been a pain in the *ss. I've been tweaking the XML of a widget I got in the market but haven't yet perfected it. Schedule is prettyl light today so I am hoping to finish it tonight.

Perfect look. What would the functionality be? Would the switch control auto-brightness?
How would one access the sliding scale?
I'm playing around with a widget that has five settings. Tapping the widget cycles through the different settings.
Ideally I'd like to have one with the same functionality of the Dazzle widget which has 4 settings including Auto as well as a sliding scale. If you know of a free brightness widget other than Dazzle with that functionality I'll give it a try. The Dazzle one looks to be a bit more difficult to edit.
Just to update you. I am making progress but not finished. I'm editing a widget with a sliding scale and that displays the current setting.
I've got the Widget to display at the right size but I am having trouble figuring out how to get a background to the label. It shouldn't be too hard to reposition the value setting so that it is centered in the widget at which point I'll redesign it to be cleaner. But, need to figure out the shadow first...

Looks great. Can't wait to see the final product!
The value level number is killer
P.S. I kinda like the number right where it is

Well, if you put it that way
I got the spacing figured out for the text label (it was skewing to the left before). And, I changed the brightness icon from blue to gray because I thought there was too much blue if the value indicator is going to stay.
That said, there are still two issues I've yet to figure out:
1. I've yet to add the background behind the text label. This is not a big deal with dark wallpaper, as you can see in the pic. But, with lighter wallpaper it looks like sh*t (see earlier screenshot).
2. Because this is merely an edited Market App there is a good chance the Marketplace will still prompt for an update if there is one. I need to figure out how to remove whatever signature is there to prevent that.
Needless to say, I'm still working on it... But, since it is currently usable with a dark wallpaper, I've added a link so you can download and use it while I figure the rest out.
link removed (updated versions in later posts)
Will install now, and let you know what I think in the morning.
Thanks so much for the effort!
Also, with appbrain, it is easy to tell it "ignore market updates"
When an update is found, click on the X and it is an option.
Very quick feedback-
If auto is set in the HTC settings, it overrides the slider in about half a second.
If I turn off auto in HTC settings, then slider works as expected.
Is there a way to make this compatible with "auto"?
I use auto most of the time, except in the dark, when auto is still too bright.
Genius. Thanks for sharing. Works great!
PS A little blue in the center wouldn't be bad. Would go along with the other HTC Settings widgets better.
Either way though, this is a great little tool.
yeah I think this is awesome, cant wait to see how it goes with the little fixes you wanted.
Great job!

Impressions & Reviews and thoughts about KitKat + EMUI 2.3! (B510)

I thought, would be nice to talk separetly about the KitKat International B510 firmware. Also we can write reviews.
My FIRST impression about this KitKat update is mixed. I missing a lot of features, like Permission manager for push services?!
Video playing is really bad! Standalone and online also. If i open videos online, and rotate the screen, i only hear the sound but the screen flashing all the time. Also video image slides alot!
Sometimes the launcher freez, when scrolling to another page. At multi-tasking when i close app with gesture, (not clicking on "X") it closes not smoothly.
Permission manager is gone? A lot of apps needed that, to work properly. For example: Facebook Messenger Cheat heads blocked, so i cant use it because of that.
Others? Whats your imressions overall?

This is BETA, so it's undestandable to have some issues and missing apps. All apps will be there in the official release.
Is it worth upgrading from B507 to B510 ?

Yes. Give it a shot, it is much faster and all the new functions are running very smooth. The performance is much better.
Update this beta version through OTA (I attended to do beta tester).
No problem with standalone and online video, about launcher seems slightly less fluid, I recommend using a theme created for 2.3 EMUI version.
About the permission manager, I suppose it's changed the method of management with the app "phone management"
I love the new keyboard and the new lock screen !

Yes, im okey with changes, but if it's working well. In phone management you'll not finding any options to set up, permissions neither push options. So it's not a good "change".

I find instead the new implementation significantly easier to use than before, for example, the widget is really functional and also the new management once you understand how it works, I do not mind at all.
It is true, I have not found the settings about notifications, but the rest is "smarter" :highfive:
for me no problem with video playback ( i sugest hwreset)
and Permission manager is now phone manager... so nothing is missing at all ;p
it runs good as for day of usage ;p

@BeyondTheHorizon (assuming your working for Huawei)
My impressions, after updating from B506 to B510. Note that since i have already used Emui2.3 beta (B014) and Emui 2.0 (official) i will not get into mentioning its improvements over Emui1.6.
- Magazine lockscreen is awesome. But i don't understand why magazine option is enabled only for a selected theme, while a few other theme have weather option on lockscreen, and why not instead have them all for all themes. (Also haven't figured out what the "link" option is within the magazine lockscreen menu).
- Overall there is lags and inconsistency in transition and animation speeds everywhere.
Examples:
> Pulling down notification panel has slower animation then when pulling it back up. While on the other hand there is also a jamming lag when notification panel goes back up.
>Random lags when moving about homscreen pages.
> lag in settings sections when entering each settings item.
- I personally dont like the splitting of drop down panel into two "notification" and "switches". The combined was much better. Even in the split form, there is design inconsistency, for example in the switch panel there is lot of free empty space on the bottom half and there is no point in having a slide down arrow to reveal just one row of switches. Furthermore it would have made sense to have the switches fill the bottom half, as it makes it easier for one hand usage. But i still prefer the the combined form which just two rows of switches and brightness option, while the rest hidden under the slide down.
- Thankfully the weather 4x2 widget is proper size, compared to the huge size on B506 and B014. But the transparent clock widget (first introduced on Honor 3c & 3x) is not yet available on this rom.
- The video player app is missing (and like others mentioned, the permission and startup apps manager, one hand option and navigation bar hiding option is missing too)
- I was hoping for changes in the "customize" section of the theme changer app. The old problem of swiping right/left a lot to get to the end of the lockscreen styles, or icons types, etc remains a burden.
- As someone said, its time to change the grey color of navigation bar. Either allow users to customize it, or have a number of colors that changes according to apps.
- In contacts "favorite" section, there is Chinese fonts.
- I don't think there is a need to have all the google apps pre-installed. Just a couple of them would be enough, while the rest can be downloaded from playstore.
- The water mark option in camera is nice. Cant find the "Cheeze" to take pics option. The photo editor is great and fun too. Video recorded on camera comes out dark. In case of taking selfie pics, once you hit the shoot button, the screen weirdly gets all yellow before taking the pic. Photos looks grainy too. But im no expert on camera, so i could be wrong.
- The Chinese rom had an app center app, and at times the latest version of the Huawei apps would be available on that. Such app updates are not available on this rom.
- The types of transition effects for homescreen keeps decreasing with every new rom update, when instead we should be getting newer ones added.
- The homescreen icons on this rom appear slightly bigger compared to them on the Chinese rom. Can be noticed when applying emui2.0 theme icons on this emui2.3 launcher.
Good and bad in B510
Good
- Magazine lockscreen is really good. I like it, hope more themes are like that.
- I like the splitting of drop down panel into two "notification" and "switches". But I hope they could have a setting to enable/disable it.
- Floating apps are awesome.
- Torch in notifications is very useful.
- Ultra power saving mode changes UI to dark black --> seems convincing that it will save battery life. Overall this rom has decent battery life.
- External SD settings
Bad
- Just hope that when I use other music players it can get the controls on the lock screen. Also, if there was a music slider to skip a few seconds of music was available on lockscreen that would be good.
- Hope that the default launcher could have a drawer. Having all the apps on the screen is messy.
- The radio widget still isn't transparent while the other huawei widgets are. It stands out and looks ugly.
- No permissions manager. It blocks facebook chatheads by default because it draws over other apps. No way to unblock it because permission settings are missing.
- The grey color of navigation bar is horrendous. Hopefully they notice this and they make it black or able to customize.
- Camera pictures look grainy.
- GPS still sucks. Don't know if it is a hardware issue.
- No ART mode
Other
- I don't know what to think about the carrier name. I feel like it's ok, don't hate it or like it.
The carrier name HAS to go! Why do they need to put it there anyway?
I agree with @warea about the notification panel that is better in Emui 2.0. Having it separate could work if you can change the settings of how you want it to be opened.
I find that the rom is a bit laggy most of the time, but for a beta I can live with it.

The carrier name it's something new for this update. And everything else it's really just a matter of opinion. The most important thing is that this ROM must run smooth and fast without any lag when it will be released as official/final. Everything else is just customization that can be added or removed by rooting and installing third party apps.
Also noticed, my phone is really hot, even for simple use. And the battery is really bad on this rom.

[Xposed] [OP2] OnePlus 2 / OxygenOS-specific Xposed modules

Hi all,
Since it didn't seem like anybody had written Xposed modules for some features I wanted, I wrote a couple myself. These are OxygenOS-specific. If you have any other OxygenOS-specific Xposed modules you'd like to see, let me know in this thread. I'm just getting started using Xposed, so I'm learning as I go.
No Quick Pulldown: http://repo.xposed.info/module/io.gavinhungry.xposed.oneplus.noquickpulldown
This disables the "quick pulldown" (which is when you swipe down on the right side of your statusbar, it skips the notifications and takes you straight to quick settings). This module also disables "smart pulldown" (which is when you get the quick pulldown behavior only when you have no notifications). As a side-effect, it also disables "two-finger quick pulldown." Since I don't use that, I don't care, but I could rework it if needed.
Reverse Alert Slider: http://repo.xposed.info/module/io.gavinhungry.xposed.oneplus.reversealertslider
This reverses the direction of the alert slider, so now the bottom position is "No interruptions," and the top position is "All notifications." It also disables the toast notification you see when moving the slider, and it removes the status from below the volume slider, both of which I found annoying (if you want to change the alert slider to control vibratation instead, check out VibrateMode).
No Quick Settings Edit Button: http://repo.xposed.info/module/io.gavinhungry.xposed.oneplus.noqseditbutton
This one is pretty minor, but since I only need to set the ordering of my Quick Settings tiles once, I don't want to see the little edit icon every day in my statusbar. This removes the icon. If you want to reorder your Quick Settings some more, you'll need to disable this module.
Thanks for putting in work?

The biggest reason I disabled that was because I couldn't figure out how to get it stay in sync with the slider - also, I never used it and found it annoying.
Introducing that as an option relies on 2 things - me be able to figure out how to keep it in sync, and me being able to create a UI. I'm not much of an Android developer, I'm afraid. If I can do those, I may also just combine these into a single module, then keep adding options to it.
Great job.
Why don't you add all these options in one app like wanam xposed does to Samsung devices?

Missing LED - kinda replacement

Hello folks
I am terribly missing notification LED. AOD ( Samsung ) is not for me. I do not want to see clock constantly or upon screentouch.
I found an app which in some way is substitute ( for me )
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tomer.alwayson&hl=en
App is highly customisable.
It uses AOD technology
You can make clock and the rest invisible so the screen is dark.
When notification arrives and you miss it there a pretty big icon appears on the screen ( size and brightness customisable ) and is moving around.
Maybe you will like it.
The AOD is not only just a "clock" it has more customizable options and you can make it exactly like the app you suggested does. Check your settings.

One workaround I can suggest is using the inbuilt theme that supports GIF and using a black image instead of a GIF.
However, you will still get a digital clock and battery percentage in addition to the notifications. If I come across a better theme, I will update it here.
There is an app for blinking AOD dot where You can define their position and "fatness"... But i can't remember app name
try AOE
There is NoLED apk LINK to download latest version v6.0.20 (it's a liitle older apk but working like a charm).
I am settled up for a white dot for all notifications and not for coloured icon...
Try it and enjoy!

Dark mode while using theme?

Hey now, just was wondering if there was a way to enable dark mode throughout all my apps while using a theme? I've been interested in android customization for years but am still un educated on it all. I don't have root on my note10+, is there a way to do this without it? Thanks all
I'm running Pie with night mode always on.
Works pretty well.
Stock Samsungs especially the 10+ are very customizable. The Good Lock family of apps.
Hundreds of free icon packs and themes.
No 3rd party launcher needed nor desirable.
Pick theme/icon pack, set background wallpaper, done.
I'm using one of the high contrast themes. Stock icon pack from Galaxy store. Quickstar customizing the pulldown menu.
I wanted to have dark mode enabled due to it effecting a lot of apps interfaces but can't seem to have it enabled along with a theme at the same time. Is there a way around it?

As I described above. It doesn't work in some apps like gmail but works in Brave, Samsung browser and in most of the Samsung system apps. Pick the theme that has the desired colors for phone, keyboard etc.
It takes a few hours to sort through the many icon packs but you'll find free ones you will like.
The basic high contrast theme works best for me. Use One Handed Operation Plus for side switches.
From Playstore:
I use the apps Color wallpaper and Color Wallpaper to generate custom backgrounds for homepage, and additional pages. Digi Clock widget allows you to make customized clock faces, colors, sizes, etc. Low battery usage.
Includes 4 custom assignable switch quadrants.
Samsung's are the most customizable stock Androids on the planets.
It ain't no lame homely plain Jane iPhone

Why u didn't use Samsung Theme Park? With that app you can change the whole Android Theme. You must install Goodlock to use this.

Care to share what you defined for your swipes in those 4 handles of One-Handed Operation?

It will go up to 6 handles. If you want though you can enter up to 36 separate switches
Long/short stroke doubles the number. Enabling this makes it more problematic to use though so it best the keep it simple.
The power window is one, navigation commands come in real handy, and a couple apps. I copy some commands to more than one handle. Depending on the position of the handle some of the swipe positions are awkward and best not used. I need to spend some time with the settings/apps and optimize it proper.
My Digi Clock widget also has a set of quad touch switches I use constantly.

Right, 36 switches, that's a lot.
What's the exact name, is it 'Digi Clock Widget'? It allows switches too? Thanks!
This widget is so cool. Any colors, fonts you want. Allows for 100% seamless backup, works with SmartSwitch too. Low battery use. Rock solid.
One of my favorite apps.
Not sure, but I noticed it's very similar to the one I'm using: Digital Clock and Weather Widget, and it's much cheaper. Don't know yet though, if there's much/significant difference.

It's the free version. No ads on mine are showing. I can block ads anyway if needed.
It has my 4 most used apps linked to it, no wasted space.

Can you share your tool(s) for ads blocking too? I'm not rooted though. One UI has improved a lot in past years that I never had the need to root. Thanks.

Thanks bro. Youtube and apkmirror seem to dodge it and makes you wait. Perhaps there's some other trick for YT ads? Cheers again!

You're welcome
The Adguard works best for app ads on the phone. Brave picks off a lot too but Adguard seems to be getting some. It will block some sites and occasionally slow loading down but generally runs smoothly as is.
Loading the Adguard app probably make it much more functional. Just not on the front burner...
YT is a menace... I tend to limit it's use because of that.
