XDA-Developers: Customize the Google Pixel 2’s Active Edge to do any action with Edge Sense Plus [XDA Spotlight]
What is Edge Sense Plus?
Edge Sense Plus was initially just meant for the HTC U series. It let's you customize the squeeze action and adds some more squeeze gestures and features.
But with the Pixel2 and Pixel3 also coming with a squeezable frame I found a way to make it compatible too.
Since google locked active edge down to just only be able to start Assistant it will require a device rooted with magisk
Requirements
it works both on rooted and unrooted devices, the unrooted version is a bit limited on features though and requires you to make Edge Sense Plus the Default assistant
Install the Active Edge System Mod Magisk Module from the MagiskManager Repo and the EdgeSensePlus from the playstore and you are ready to go!
Telegram Group
Join Telegram Edge Sense Plus Group
How does it work
To make it working on the Pixel3 I had to modify the SystemUIGoogle.apk that runs the ElmyraService (Service that processes the squeeze gestures).
I intercept the events and pass them to the EdgeSensePlus Application that starts the appropriate action then that you selected.
Some more adjustments were made, so the squeezing also works when you are in immersive mode, camera or when Google Assistant is deactivated/uninstalled.
With Android 10 it works now also on unrooted devices but it requires you to make Edge Sense Plus the Default assistant
What can it do?
Custom actions:
Currently you can choose from over different actions
Quickly Start camera - Also when screen is off and locked
Per App Action - Execute different squeeze actions depending in what app you are!

Gesture Panel - Draw custom gestures to start different actions
Custom App

Per app actions:
With the per app action, you can define different squeeze actions per app. So the chosen action will be executed dependent in what app you are currently are.
Double Squeeze: (Premium)
If you often accidentally trigger a short squeeze, that won't happen anymore if you map your desired action to the double squeeze gesture.
You can define a double squeeze interval, to ensure you are quick enough to trigger it every time.
Long Squeeze:
Missed a long squeeze action on your Pixel? Edge Sense Plus has it!
G-Sensor usage: (Premium)
If enabled, will be able to execute different actions depending on the current position of your device, whether it is flat or upright in your hand.
That way you can have six different squeeze gestures: short, long, doublepress in flat or upright device position.
Media control:
The media control will override your set squeeze actions while media is playing so you can control your media.
That includes play/pause, increase/decrease volume and skip to next and previous track.
Squeeze sounds:
Ever thought it would be funny if a squeeze of your Pixel 3 XL would make a sound, if it is a *click*, *oink* , *fart* or whatever you think of?
You can use any .mp3 file to make that happen!
Sidebar:
The Sidebar has 4 different panels, Applications, Shortcuts, Recent Apps (Premium), Quicksettings (Premium).
Panel colors are customizable
Instructions
Unrooted Version:
Install Edge Sense Plus from the playstore and follow the in app instructions
Rooted Version:
Root with Magisk is required since the magisk module is mandatory!
It is recommended to have a working TWRP backup in case something goes wrong. Check the FAQ for help too.
Like always: Flash on your own risk. I'm not responsible for any damaga to your device
Flash the Magisk Module in Magisk Manager
Install Edge Sense Plus
Enjoy.
Downloads
Now also available via the MagiskManager Repo:
I recommend to install and update the Magisk Module directly via the MagiskManager repository directly in the MagiskManager app.
All releases will be also available on the GitHub repository

Hello @j to the 4n
Was going to look for your Telegram thread, but then saw you post this here. Basically here's my post from Tulsadiver's thread with his modifications including your Active Edge module support:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pi...sk-module-mod-installer-t3992635/post80752815
tldr of it is, when the Active Edge module is added, the phone seems to either have lag or lockups necessitating a complete reboot of the phone. Sometimes this doesn't happen for a while or sometimes is as soon as the phone boots.
Any ideas?

Mhh, no clue tbh. It worked fine for years on the Pixel2/Pixel 3. The Pixel 4 Version is not any different.
Can you maybe pull a logcat when it happens again?

Just installed this on my P4XL.
Couple things -- I have a long press set to trigger Assistant, and it seems to launch the old Assistant, the white full screen one. Any way to launch the new Assistant at the bottom of the display?
Also, I'm rooted with Magisk, but when I try to toggle the root option on the app, it says the "device seems not to be rooted.'

The original assistant can be just called when the root option is enabled.
DId you by chance denied root access once? Check in Magisk Manager->SuperUser

It's the bootloop protection of my module.
When an Security patch gets released I need to make the module compatible first.
Takes usually 24h when I have all files. Give me another hour and it will be done.
Then just reinstall the module.
Oh that's my bad. I saw P4XL in the change notes and since I just got the device today, I didn't even think to consider the November update.
Thanks.

ensure that you have either "User Usage" Access permissions given or have enabled the root toggle.
If it still doesnt work, send me a logcat please.
Previous users that had issues had mutliple camers installed or somehow tasker was set as default for the camera action.

I was working on it, but someone beat me to it.
There was a xda article about it already
I've noticed that when I map squeeze (single) to pull down the status bar or expand/retract it doesn't work the first time and I receive a toast that ES has been granted SU and then it works after that, but occasionally without a reboot it will stop working. Squeeze always pulls up the new assistant but doesn't consistently execute the action mapped to single squeeze for me. Sometimes it will expand the status bar but also the assistant so I can't interact with the notification shade until assistant goes away. All of this happens with assistant disabled, so not sure what else I can try.

About the issue that the expand collapse action does not work at the first time sometimes:
There is no way to check, if the status bar is expanded or not. I can only save the state if the squeeze executed the expand command, so that the next squeeze will execute a collapse action.
If you would collapse the statusbar manually after the first squeeze which expanded the statusbar, the 2nd squeeze would fail too, because it would execute the collapse command, altough you already manually collapsed it before.
Expanding and collapsing the statusbar does not need root permissions, so no idea why an SU popup appears.
About your second issue I'm not sure if I understood it correctly.
You mean that sometimes the mapped action does not get executed, but instead the stock action with GA?
That would be a weird behavior, because once the magisk module is mounted, that can't happen. Or are you non rooted?

First of all, this thread is not for ranting about the issue. This is about finding a solution. So, please save your rants for other threads.
Many users are reporting notification problems using their LeEco Le Pro 3. I actually refuse to call it a problem. EUI is very aggressive about the memory and power management. And these options are by default turned on. There are few tools available that can allow apps to run more freely in the background. I absolutely hate that stock android doesn't provide any such tool to limit wakelocks or control apps running in the background. So, for every android phones I have used in the past, I used Greenify, Amplify, AppOps to gain those controls.
Now obviously we don't want all of the apps to get limited. A smartphone is about connectivity, and timely syncing is essential for some of the apps. Below are some of the steps that can be taken to get more control of the apps running in the background.
1. Notification Management
Go to Settings>Notification management
Set as 'Important notice' for all the apps you need more frequent notification from.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Disable Auto Cleaning
EUI automatically cleans up app from memory. Disable it for the apps which you need to run in the background.
Go to Phone Manager > Power saving management > App protection
Disable auto cleaning for the necessary apps. I recommend having it enabled for your launcher, if you are using a 3rd party one.
This can also be accessed from the recents menu. Pull down on the desired apps to keep it in memory. This is sometimes useful, because for whatever reason, not all the apps are listed on the previous menu.
2. Sleep Mode Clean up.
Go to Phone Manager > Power saving management
a. Disable Lock-screen cleanup. (This works like the greenify app, once the screen goes off, the background apps get killed)
b. Disable Ultra-long standby during sleep. (Phone basically goes to power-saving mode at night)
Chose depending on what you need. I am keeping the Ultra-long standby on, but Lock-screen clean up off.
3. Wakelock Limit
This works like the Amplify app, but unfortunately we don't have control on which wakelocks to block.
Go to Phone Manager > Power saving management > Align wake up
Disable the options you prefer. They are self-explanatory. I have both of them on, but not having any sync issues with the apps I care about.
4. Auto Launch Limit
Self Explanatory. I used to access this option form AppOps module. Manages which apps can wake up the device from sleep. Enable for apps needed.
Go to Phone Manager > Privacy safety > Manage Auto Launch
5. Background resource control
Dial *#*#46360000#*#* and uncheck 'Enable background resource control'.
Of course all these steps are gonna take a toll on the battery to some extent. Play with the settings as you wish. Every people has different needs. Choose whatever works best for you. Feel free to share your observations and recommendations. I shall update this thread accordingly.
LeEco's latest update actually disabled most of these battery saving features by default. All apps are allowed to run in the background and wake by themselves. So, you may want to do the opposite now. Block wakelock and restrict background operation for the apps you do not want.
Looking forward to trying this, thanks for sharing!
It's impressive they added all these battery saving features into the rom. I really like this phone alot.

If the above does not work, which they did not for me, another member discovered a thread from the India forums mentioning a bug in EUI software causing the notification issue. A fix that appears to be working for me so far is:
Dial *#*#46360000#*#* and disable “Enable background resource control”.

Holy **** I think that did it, including the pesky Nine email client issue that none of the other settings helped.
I still had to add Nine to allow auto-launch but I think it's working. Going to continue testing .
I wonder how the guys at Indian Forum discovered this.

Hi!
I am on a LEX720, with current 5.8.018S (build id WAXCNFN5801811012S).
I tried all the steps from OP and this makes notifications much more reliable (as the apps continue to run in the background and won't be killed). But google cloud messaging is still not working correctly (and the steps in the OP don't fix this).
I tested like this:
I made sure that the application (I tested with the "Signal" app) is definitely not running (i.e. manually killed it over adb).
Then I sent a message to my device and monitored if the Google Play Services are receiving a notification on the device and in fact, yes it does.
BUT: The target app get's NOT started (and so I won't see the message until I open the messaging app later myself).
When I look into logcat I see that Play Services received the C2DM (cloud-to-device-message) but did not deliver the intent (which should cause the relevant app to be started, if it is not running yet):
Code:
11-16 15:33:34.688 W/GCM-DMM (31553): broadcast intent callback: result=CANCELLED forIntent { act=com.google.android.c2dm.intent.RECEIVE flg=0x10000000 pkg=org.thoughtcrime.securesms (has extras) }
This behaviour is the same for me for all apps which use Google cloud notification (WhatsApp, Threema, Signal, etc..).
It can also easily be tested with this app here: Push Notification Tester
Everything works fine as long as the app is open. But if you request a notification in 20 seconds, and then in the meantime kill the app (by swiping it away in the recent apps screen), you won't get any notification. Just the warning message in logcat (just filter for "W/GCM-DMM").
Can anybody else confirm this?

Have you tried this?: Dial *#*#46360000#*#* and disable “Enable background resource control”
That's the only thing that's made my notifications finally from within apps (aside from also enabling notifications in settings, priority notifications, not 'cleaning' apps etc. I don't use what'sapp though. But before that, google clock wouldn't wake it for alarms or timers... now it does. I also wasn't getting push notifications for Voxer messages or in the Amazon Flex driver's app that I use for work. They all work fine now after disabling that background resource control crap. They need to remove that as being on by default immediately!!!

Yes, I have disabled this setting. Nevertheless push notifications don't work as expected.
As soon as the app which should receive the push notification is no longer running in the background, the notification will not be shown. This affects every app which uses Google's push notification service.
Here is a short demonstration video how it normally should work (shown on a Nexus 6): https://goo.gl/photos/zV6D4dKm7hufnTTi6
(The app in the video is the Push Notification Tester app I've mentioned before.)
As you can see in the video normally notifications will be received, even if the target app process is not even running. Google Play Services takes care to send an Intent which starts the app so that it can handle the incoming notification.
Unfortunately this seems not work on my LePro 3.
Does this work for anybody else?

I cannot seem to recreate that issue. I set the notification delay to 10 seconds, started the test notification, swiped up on the app to remove it from memory and about 4 seconds later I got my test notification.
However, if I put the timer to 30 seconds and start the test notification and then go to the app details and force stop it, I never get my notification, I am not sure if this is by design though.

I am getting notification even if I set it to 5 mins, and remove the app from memory. Doesn't make sense, why it would be different....

It's working (I am stupid)!

Thank you for the hint. I am stupid, I really forgot to allow auto-start for the test app (I know it was mentioned in the OP and I have read it, no idea why I forgot it). If I enable the test-app in "Phone Manager" -> "Privacy Safety" -> "Manage auto launch" everything works as expected and notifications are displayed even if the app process has been killed in the meantime.
Thank you all for the feedback!
I did a few more tests and I unambiguously could verify that the
"Manage auto launch" permission is directly related with Google Push Notifications working or not.
Now that I think about it, it also makes sense this way. If you don't allow auto-launch for an app, this doesn't just mean, that it can't launch automatically at boot time, but also means that it cannot be launched automatically via a Push Message from the app publisher (if the app is not running yet). Hence push notifications will not work after the app has ended.

AFAIK, this is by design. If you use force-stop from Settings, then nothing in this app will run again automatically. This includes the BroadcastReceiver which receives the Push Notification Intents. Only after one of the app components is started again manually (e.g. by manually launching the app again) the app will receive Broadcasts again.

Anybody running PIE controls instead navbar?
First I did hide navbar by xposed and xmiui tweaks (2.0). After that I tried different apps for PIE.
Well-known LMT launcher isn't working for me. simple PIE also isn't working properly because I don't see icons and edges of my PIE.
As last I tried xposed module "unique controls". It is working fine but hasn't second or long press actions...
Has anybody similar experiences?

Thanks for sharing information, Mix's screen is great at full!
Only edited build.prop and added lmt. All works incl. user images. Only quirk I'm having is that everytime i reboot I must make sure to go into the app first, which automatically takes me to the drawing over other apps toggle. It turns off on reboot. This is something I have come across before. Only on marshmallow roms though, not on lollipop or nougat.
qemu.hw.mainkeys = 1

That's all or changed you anything more for working LMT?

Yup. There are two empty lines at the bottom. Just add and leave one empty line. No need to add another. Doubt it matters though.
In my "short" post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-mix/how-to/guide-flash-global-china-rom-root-gapps-t3510592/page4
I mention lmt. Just gonna quote myself:
"On lmt launcher I had to set the touch area thickness to 35 for pie to register my finger. So i checked CIT (hardware test. Go to: about phone => press kernel version 4x).
And I can see my digitzer doesn't register my finger when I slide in from the sides up until i reach 32 pixels in. If I start from anywhere else and go towards the edge, it follows me perfectly.
Can anyone replicate this? I'm guessing this has to do with not getting unwanted touches when holding the phone."
I'm not sure the same applies to the top and bottom.
And by touch area thickness I mean activation area thickness:silly:
Thx a lot...
Only to set area thickness to 35 was my solution for get working LMT...

One thing i forgot to mention. By increasing the activation area, you are also increasing the chance of triggering pie when you hit the edgekeys on your keyboard for example. I would avoid making it long enough to reach that far down (this is if you have the triggers on the sides).
If you use bottom then the same pertains to stuff you might have there. But I guess this is very obvious.
Don't you just love it. All screen, all the time. I have yet to see a perfect alternative. All app/OS solutions still make the nav bar glitch around at times.
No worries...
I'm using LMT for many years (especially on smaller screens like Nexus 4 and 5)
[emoji6]
just wondering - did you try using the gravitybox module in xposed? i use that for pretty much everything. this is the first thing i'm going to do is setup pie controls, i really have no idea why everyone doesn't prefer them so much quicker and more efficient

where is xmiui tweaks found at? i search for it on the xposed modules and i'm not finding that. is there a different place to find modules for miui? thanks
edit - ahhh...it is in the playstore
I am using simple control from the same creator of simple pie:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ace.jun.simplecontrol&hl=en
I found this behave much better for my taste. you click the bottom to bring up the navigation bar, you set delay and auto hide to suit your taste, the bar disappear after a while to maintain the full screen experience on Mix.
With PIE, or simple PIE, you have to swipe then click, and the pie bar is gone instantly which i don't think is ideal. And more importantly, because you need to swipe and click, that's one gesture less you are free to use.
I haven't rooted my phone (still waiting for unlock code), so the swipe up action brings the navbar back if you don't use xposed modules. Simple control solve that problem as it's purely click action.
Ok, i actually found something I think that's better, FloatMenu
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ksxkq.floating&hl=en_GB
No more buttons what so ever, just do swipe actions from edges and you get the home/back/recent actions. Unlike PIE which you have to swipe and click, more importantly, you don't have the ugly (imo) pie overlay. There is no overlay at all if you use Float Menu. And it has some advanced options such as disable during keyboard...etc.
p.s. I am still waiting for my BL unlock code to root my phone so I can completely get rid of Mi Nav Bar, once that's done, I can test all these methods more realistically.

When do you have to click on Pie? You just swipe in from one side and let go when you reach the right key.. you can also adjust longpress time for second layer of keys. If you use lmt, you can also add custom gestures etc. But I find it better to have an overlay with quick access to fav apps. Quicker to switch that way than through recents menu.. best would be as you say to not have anything.. Pie offers more keys/shortcuts quickly. Best would be no overlay, but hardly the most functional. Can only imagine replacing all my shortcuts/keys with gestures. Seems like a nightmare to remember.
But if you don't like it, you don't like it

I think it's all down to preference, when I said you need to click in PIE, i meant you need to swipe in from side, then you need to look at overlay and locate the keys you want to press then releáse, this whole process is longer than the method I use.
So in quick summary:
In PIE, swipe->locate->release
In Floating Menu, Swipe->release
You take out the locate step and you also get rid of the ugly(imo) overlay. Downside is you also get rid of the quick access app option but i personally don't like it at all. If quick access app is a must, there are tones of app that can let you do that with swipe action, i just don't want it to mix with my nav bar bottom swipe.
I set my floating menu at the bottom, so recent app in bottom left, home in bottom mid, back key in bottom right, just like where you have the physical or Nav bottom, and I can swipe it without looking at the phone, and because there is no overlay, i don't need to locate also. In real usage, it has the least learning curve i think.
I am enjoying this method a lot more than others apps, but that's my preference.

When you have used pie for half a day or less, your thumb can pretty quickly slide in to the right key. You don't think consciously, just muscle memory or whatever one calls it :laugh:
But you want it clean, I understand
Can you customize the looks on simple pie? It can look better than stock. At least with lmt. Just had to squeeze that in there.

You can certainly customize the looks on simple pie, but it remain to be "pie shape" xD, which i don't like.
I would rather go with simple control which I linked a few posts above if I still want the overlay.

I think you need to try a tasty english meat pie / apple pie, to change your perceptions on this lovely shape

Only edited build.prop and added lmt. All works incl. user images. Only quirk I'm having is that everytime i reboot I must make sure to go into the app first, which automatically takes me to the drawing over other apps toggle. It turns off on reboot. This is something I have come across before. Only on marshmallow roms though, not on lollipop or nougat.

have you figured out how to make LMT automatically launch on a reboot without making you go in and toggle the overlay again? this happens to me even sometimes without rebooting i have to go in and do it again. so annoying i also can't seem to get it working on the bottom of the screen but can on the sides.

No, I really haven't. As long as I have it locked in the recents menu, it never fails. But have to do the toggle on reboot. Just checked, on the bottom I can put the activation area thickness down to as little as 5 and it still responds everytime. What happens when you choose bottom?
I'm on 6.12.8 now btw. What are you on?
I'm hoping this blows over when nougat builds starts coming out, but it is not that much of a pain. Takes three seconds. I have only run nougat roms on my nexus 9, but it has never happened there.
Also, after using it for years, I don't honestly find the "pie" look that great either. I often just choose transparent for all the colors, so it's just my buttons and icons showing.

Android Authority: Edge Sense Plus makes the HTC U11 a shortcut machine
XDA-Developers: Edge Sense Plus for HTC U11 Quick Look: Get More Out of Every Squeeze
What is Edge Sense Plus?
You should already be familiar what Edge Sense is. By squeezing your device, it lets you perform some minor actions.
Edge Sense Plus extends those actions and adds some more features for you.
How does Edge Sense Plus work?
It is a simple app you install from playstore, linked at the bottom.
To get it working, you enable Advanced Mode'in the native Edge Sense Settings and select "Launch App" as custom action for both short and long squeeze
and pick the appropriate Edge Sense Plus Activity.
When the app starts the first time you'll get those instructions step by step again.
What can it do?
Custom actions:
Currently you can choose from 27 different actions
Sidebar
Custom App
Shortcuts - e.g. to make direct calls!
Recent Apps
Toggle Autorotation
Autobrightness (6 states: Auto, Min, Low, Mid, High, Max)
Split Screen
Expand/Collapse Statusbar
Toggle NFC (root)
Toggle Display on/off (root)
Toggle Autorotation
Toggle DND
Toggle Vibration
Toggle Bluetooth
Toggle WiFi
Music Play/Pause
Previous Track
Next Track
Toggle Keep awake
Google Assistent
Lock Screen
Back
Home
Toggle Sync
Sync all accounts
Previous App
Toggle Flashlight
Toggle Powersaver (root)
Toggle GPS
Camera (root)
Per app actions:
With the per app action, you can define different squeeze actions per app. So the chosen action will be executed dependent in what app you are currently are.
Double Squeeze: (Premium)
If you often accidentally trigger a short squeeze, that won't happen anymore if you map your desired action to the double squeeze gesture.
You can define a double squeeze interval, to ensure you are quick enough to trigger it every time.
G-Sensor usage:
If enabled, will be able to execute different actions depending on the current position of your device, whether it is flat or upright in your hand.
That way you can have six different squeeze gestures: short, long, doublepress in flat or upright device position.
Magisk system mod:
The magisk system mod replaces the native Edge Sense app and allows customizations on lowest level. That makes it possible to:
Execute actions while the screen is off/locked
Have pocket detection (disables edge sense when the proximity sensor is blocked)
Customize the colors of the feedback graphics
Media control:
The media control will override your set squeeze actions while media is playing so you can control your media.
That includes play/pause, increase/decrease volume and skip to next and previous track.
Squeeze sounds:
Ever thought it would be funny if a squeeze of your U11 would make a sound, if it is a *click*, *oink* or whatever you think of?
You can use any .mp3 file to make that happen!
Sidebar:
Remember that image?
We have that for real! Our Sidebar has three different panels, Applications, Recent Apps (Premium), Quicksettings (Premium).
You will also be able to customize the panel color to any color you like.

Google is Threatening to Remove Apps with Accessibility Services from the Play Store
Google has sent out mails to developers to remove apps with accessibility service permissions that violate their new poliy.
That is saying now, that the accessibiliy services may be just used to help users with disabilities.
For a more detailed explanation read this xda portal post: Google is Threatening to Remove Apps with Accessibility Services from the Play Store
To prevent Edge Sense Plus getting deleted on the playstore, I will provide an Helper app here, outside the playstore, to be still able to provide the Accessibiliy Service features in Edge Sense Plus.
Simply install it, start it once and grant accessibiliy service permissions for the #Edge Sense Plus - Accessibility Helper.
Attention, for some it can cause a noticible lag while scrolling and navigating: “Working As Intended” – An Exploration into Android’s Accessibility Lag

Try to enable notification access (second setting from the bottom) and see if it works now. If you already had it enabled, try enable "Use broadcasts" in the Media control section.
If nothing works, blame Apple. Really nothing I can do about if they don't implement the standards like every other android music player does.

That is already possible, but it needs root and magisk.
Android does not allow 3rd party apps to be started while the screen is locked, that is why root is needed.
@j to the 4n, thanks a lot bro.
Here is your great app infusion to my beloved HTC U11+.

I've put together a Tasker project (based on the information I found in this post) which allows the OP5's capacitive button backlights to be kept on all the time and to easily be switched back and forth between different states, via either a popup dialog or quick settings tile. I've only used it on Android OOS versions of Oreo 8.1 and I have no idea if it works on Pie.
Once the project has been downloaded and imported, follow these steps to get things working and looking right:
If you plan to use the popup, set a shortcut to open the task "Backlight Status Control With Icons", this will open up a dialog from which you can choose how you want the backlights to behave. There's also a profile and tasks included to set up a quick settings tile to cycle through the different settings. The dialog and quick settings tile can be used alongside each other, as can the native settings app, nothing should cause conflicts.
Dialog / Scene icons: You can use the dialog as-is, but it'll look stupid and you'll get laughed at, which is why I've uploaded icons for you to add to it. It isn't hard to do. First, download the attached icons zip file and extract it wherever. In Tasker, open the scene "Backlights Menu" for editing and click on the "AZ" icon at the bottom left. This will open a list of all the scene elements. There are three icon elements, open these one at a time and point them to the corresponding icons from the extracted zip (Image>>Local Media>>extracted folder). There are also three dividers which all use the icon "divider.png", plug these in and you're all set!
Quick Settings tile: The profile and task I set up cycle the button backlights through each of the three states (default>>always on>>always off). To set a custom QS tile, pull down quick settings and click on the pencil icon at the bottom right to open it for editing. On the bottom half of the screen are the unused tiles. Tasker has three tiles available to use, the one farthest to the right is number three, and that's the one I've set up the profile to use. (If you're already using that one, open up the tasks "Backlights QS Tile", "Backlight Reset QS Tile" and "Backlights Kill QS Tile" and edit the actions in those so they don't conflict with your current setup.) Drag that one to the top half of the screen where the active tiles are, get everything arranged how you want it and then back out and go and open up Tasker. Import the project if you haven't already. Tap on the task ""Backlights Reset QS Tile" to open it and tap the play icon at the bottom left. The tile should now be initialized.
Recommended: I put a couple icons in the zip for the QS tile, "icon_default.png" and "icon_off.png". They should be added to the tasks "Button Backlights Off" (icon_off.png), "Button Backlights On" (icon_default.png), and "Button Backlights Default" (icon_default.png). Add them by opening each task for editing, clicking the grid icon at the bottom of the screen, and then navigating to the extracted icons (Local Media>>extracted icons folder).
Hello, Thanks for the work.
Do you know if it is possible to increase the brightness?

I'm absolutely sure I did find something involving scripts to adjust the brightness, but right now I can't seem to find it, I'll let you know if I do.
OK, I'll go ahead and upload the continuation of my work. It's a Tasker project which, when triggered, pops up a dialog with the options of setting the backlights always on, always off, or the default behavior; basically just a cleaner and easier way to toggle the settings back and forth. It also forces the lights off almost as soon as the screen turns off, as well as when the daydream/screen saver kicks in. I would love to export this as an apk, but I haven't managed to make that work, so Tasker (and root) are required.
Import the project into Tasker and set a shortcut/trigger for the task "Backlight Status Control", it's pretty much self-explanatory from there.
Update: Figured out how to get App Factory to work, so now there's an installable apk for those who don't have Tasker installed. Still requires root, of course, and I would also recommend turning off battery optimization for the app and clearing caches, it behaved a bit strangely before I did that. If you have Tasker, I recommend importing the project anyway as it seems to run just a touch faster.
All links are in the OP.
New version up, the main difference is that the chosen state survives a reboot whereas before rebooting with the lights set to Always On caused the lights to actually be always off when the device restarted. I probably fussed with the icons a bit as well, can't remember if I had already done that or not.
Links are in the first post.
And another one. This version fixes two things. First, it only keeps the profiles active when they're actually needed rather than all the time, giving you probably a minute or two of extra battery life. And then it (hopefully) fixes the last potential conflicts when switching states in the device's settings app rather than this project's dialog. This required an extra one each of profile, task and variable as well as adding some actions to a few existing tasks.
As of right now, I'm only uploading xml's, as the exported apk's have been unstable when I've tested them on my device. If you really want to try it and don't have Tasker installed, pm me and I'll send you the app to install at your own risk.
Anyone who has downloaded and imported the xml may have correctly guessed that I don't have a whole lot of experience with Tasker. I would like to take this opportunity to invite anyone who has noticed something that could be done better and/or differently to give me honest feedback. As simple as this project is, it has nevertheless been frustrating at times and I would love to have the benefits of others experience.
Can't import, Tasker says the project "contained bad data." File seemed to download fine, 41.83 kb.

Sorry to hear it's not working for you. I've successfully downloaded and imported the project using two different devices, so the file itself doesn't seem to be the problem. It's possible, of course, that your download somehow got mangled along the way, so if you haven't already, try downloading it again and see what happens.
And... I'm honestly not sure what other advice to give you. Google just turned up really basic stuff like making sure you're not in beginner mode and that you're not actually trying to import it as a task or profile, stuff like that.
Tasker can be massively frustrating and picky, and I'm far from being an expert on it. Considering this is the first real feedback I've gotten on this thread, I don't know if anyone else has had similar issues, I just assumed no news is good news and that it works for everyone who's tried it. If anyone else has any ideas about why this would happen, feel free to share!
New xml up. No new functionality, I just debloated and cleaned things up a bit. Instructions in the first post still apply.
Updated xml now with HAPTIC FEEDBACK omg lol! Also changed/added quite a bit of stuff to hopefully make it run a bit more efficiently in the background, so a few less toast notifications and magisk log entries to look at, otherwise nothing really noticeable.
EDIT: Apologies to those who already downloaded the new one, but I just updated the update :/ Maybe it's just placebo, but it feels like decreasing the vibrate duration made it feel a bit more responsive, no need to redownload if you're already happy with it.
Any screenshots of this same in action?

I mean, the buttons aren't actually on the screen so no, I can't really screenshot how it looks. If you want a screenshot of the dialog box that you use to choose the state, then sure, I can do that...

I totally forgot that Tasker lets you set Quick Settings tiles! So I've uploaded a new version that can set up a quick tile to cycle through the button states, it's disabled by default and naturally requires a bit of work to get it going but the instructions are, as usual, in the first post along with the attachments. Note that if you're going to use the quick tile you might also want to download the new icons.zip as well, check out the instructions and screenshots to see how it looks. Otherwise the only other change is the dialog pop-up got a bit smaller and very slightly transparent, there's a screenshot of that as well to help you decide if it's worth the bother.
EDIT: If you had problems with the QS tile not cycling through the settings correctly, download the newest version, it seems to have fixed it. Sorry for the inconvenience.
New one up. The last version was inconsistent updating the QS tile when setting the lights from the settings app. Let's see how I screwed up this one then. Link and instructions in the first post, blablabla...
Another week, another try to make the QS tile behave the way I want. Seems to be working over the last days of testing it, but then I say that every time. I also changed some task names so that the labels under the QS icons are accurate, and I uploaded a new icon zip with icons that imo look better in the OOS beta builds, the ones for the stable builds are still in there as well. You guys are smart, you'll figure it out.
Hi, I'm quite new with the Tasker projects! I have tried this one on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4x (Android 7.0 Xiaomi.eu) and Samsung Galaxy Note 2014 Edition (LineageOS 14.1). I wanted to achieve buttons backlight when charger plugged in, but without screen waking. On Xiaomi it seems to work fine, but on Samsung I ended up with the error:
16.48.31/E Run Shell: ->

Can somebody explain me in a simple manner, what is wrong? I'm still begginer with Tasker ?

You're in a wrong thread and possibly wrong forum too. This is about AoD on OxygenOS, not MIUI or LOS or Tasker.
Thanks, you helped me a lot :good:

I mean, "Tasker" is in the thread title... And this thread is about the capacitive button backlights, which is what Lord Sithek is asking about, not AoD.

Sorry, I don't think I can help you, I don't really know that much about shell commands and definitely can't troubleshoot for an unfamiliar device. You'd be better off trying the Tasker forums on XDA or /r/tasker. Good luck!
Oh, thanks, it's a nicer reply It's true I rushed a little bit, I just googled "Tasker buttons backlight" and I didn't check what device is actually considered I'm still newbie here, but I want to learn more :cyclops: Thanks for the links, I will check the threads :good:
I haven't updated this in a few months because it more or less worked; however, I still encountered problems with the quick settings tile not cycling properly after a reboot, as well as Tasker throwing errors, although these didn't seem to affect functionality. Anyway, I had a few days off during the holidays and was able to stop the errors from occurring as well as come up with a workaround (although not a real solution) for the problems I had with the qs tile. And so, I present what should be the final version of this mod. Link in the first post, along with setup instructions.
Btw, anyone tried this with Pie? I'm not planning on making the jump anytime soon, so I'm just curious if it works or not.
