Amaaazing screen off app!!!

This free app lets you turn the screen off by waving at the proximity sensor near your earpiece! No Widgets to press! Just the swipe of your hand!
Marketplace Search: ProximityScreenOff
A lil thanks if you like it will be appreciated ;D

The idea is nice but beeing left handed it triggers accidentally too much for me. Works pretty sweet though. Wish the prox sensor was on the right

Be cautious... Just tried playing with this on CM7 #B30, and almost couldn't get it off my phone. Also, didn't appear to work properly (I'm guessing its a Gingerbread issue). Not sure if these results are typical, but I had to reboot 3 times, uninstall through both the market, and app manager, and without being able to do nandroid yet, I was a little nervous.
Idea sounds great though. It'd be a fun trick to show friends, that's why I gave it a shot.

I am LOVING this!
This is the type of app that makes me go week at the knees! <3

You don't follow directions. And it worked fine on my gingerbread build. To delete it fully, you first need to to in to settings, locations&security, then select device admin. Untidiness the checkmark, and select deactivate. Then delete.
Personally this was a bit too sensitive for me, but very cool concept.

You're right, I didn't follow those directions because I never saw them. Regardless, it still didn't work for me, and I wanted to let others know of a possible implication. I even mentioned that I was unsure if the result would be typical.

If you'd read the information on the app market, before just downloading, you'd have seen.

Pretty cool but sometimes I use my left hand and lock it by mistake. And it doesn't disable when I'm in landscape mode for some reason. I had the check box for that feature checked. Is it supposed to be unchecked?

Haaah made my 8 year old sister believe I was jesus with this app
But yeah, I don't know how it'll affect my battery life, and half the time I couldn't get the screen to turn off I wish the sensitivity was adjustable. Uninstalled for now.

You want to get laid by even hotter chicks? Casually mention in passing that you're running a "gingerbread" CM7 ROM. That's super underground.

The Proximity sensor is on the very left side of the metal grill for the earspeaker thing in the front...
maybe try swiping there...

It's a good idea but its a bit too sensitive... maybe after a few adjustments, I'd use it. Nice find though!

This one is pretty chill, but I prefer tap tap app, you can turn your screen on and off with the sensor.

Disable Touch Key Backlight on Google Edition

I hope someone can help me out with this (I guess most of my posts arent worth bothering with as they usually go untouched by anyone). I'm trying to figure out a way to disable the touch button backlight on a Google Edition ROM. I have been searching for an answer since the Google Edition hit. All I can ever find is how to disable on GSIII ROMs (non ge). If anyone can please help me out I would very much appreciate it. Thanks!

Screen Filter is an app that can disable the backlight of the softkeys. Set it to auto-start at boot and you should be good. I know its not a direct fix but its a low impact app that shouldnt effect battery life or operation.

Seems to work for me. Did it dim the screen at all (thats its main function)? Did you see the check box "enable softkey back light" (uncheck it) at the bottom of the app ui?

Yes, it did dim the screen, but if i uncheck the enable softkey back light, anytime I touch the screen the backlights still come on. Are you on a G.E. rom? I am currently on Infamouse G.E.

No im not. I am on AOSP (Slim Bean) though.

There are options to do this in AOKP and CM roms. Anybody know how those builds pull it off?

Okay i am having troubles setting it to off on boot. But here is a "toggle" version of it where you can toggle them on or off. Will try and fix the boot issue tomorrow.

Nice app
Great app man, it works fine. But i think it should let the user select which app to make use of the function.

Thank you for the feedback
and i'm very happy to hear back..i'm working on it..will bee out soon...!

Will be updating to a new version before October 2nd
this will have features of a pro version but it just gives the feel not the functionality
Please let me know your comments

Good job!! I love the app, the concept is great. I think the idea is better than Samsung's Smart Stay(or something like that) that never worked well enough for me. I'd surely use this app daily when it's finished. I didn't vote on the playstore because it needs some more development.
Here's a major bug I encountered: It sometimes doesn't work until you switch the feature off and on again, and switch between apps.
Also the sensibility is kinda low, i think ot should be higher(or maybe let the user select some kind of levels?).
Anyways, I call this app a good example of great use of a smartphone's sensor.
I have a question, does this app only work on Samsung devices? if not, I think you should make a thread in a general forum so any people can give you feedback, not only s3 owners.
I'm a student developer, so I hope I will submit an app to the store soon.
Cheers!!:good:

Thank you for the valuable feedback....
Its a strange issue..! Will definitely look in to the issue
When you said its not working are telling based on the Message you see on the screen when you open the app..if so that message will be displayed only for the first launch of the app.
right now sensitivity is at the best lowest as possible
you need not move the device slight angle change will also be considered

Good Luck with you app
and this will support all phones running android 4.0 and above

I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you what I meant by "it doesn't work".
Well...sometimes the screen just forgets to turn off, even if phone is on the table.
About the sensibility, I think the app should detect a trembling hand, so it knows you're holding the phone. It's just a suggestion, I don't know how practical this would be.

cool...from the last movement detected phone will wait for (defaultscreentimeout - say 3 seconds) to actually turn off the screen..
is the screen staying on for more than defaultscreentimeout value...!

Yes it is, the screen timeout was actually 15 secons...just for testing. But the screen just refused to turn off while on the selected app. So I had tu turn the app off and on again few times till it worked. I think it's only the first time, after you install the app, I'm not sure. But it happened more tan once. Needs more testing.

It happened to me again. The default timeout was 15 seconds. I just started Word app and kept the phone still. But the screen just refused to turn off(I waited 2 minutes). I solved this by turning the app off and on and switching between timeout times. However, it may be a rom bug (I'm running a cm12 based rom), as I found out it happens even after I turn off the app.
Good luck!!

Hello
Thank you for the info i tried to reproduce but couldnt
please find the screen shot please check if the app is correct "Word app"
since you have the issue even when you turn off the service i think its not related to SmartScreen

No buddy, I meant the "Word" application. You know...the one from Microsoft. Lol!! Anyway, the bug happened also with firefox...
Yeah maybe it's my rom's fault. I'll give it a try again when I switch to another one.
Good luck with the app!!

Ooops sure let me know if you come up with any issues..working on optimizing it so may be an update with minor improvements will be out later some time...

[7T Pro STOCK] Permissions issues

Hello,
I need a bit of help on this, my phone has really weird permissions issues. For example, when I want to configure an app for the first time that tells me to go enable notification access and it sends me to the screen where you can toggle notification access for a lot of apps and you activate the access for the app in question, the app doesn't see that you turned the permission on when it is on (double checked). I'll link a YT video I made that shows the issue perfectly. (please take note that this happens on EVERY app that asks for permissions this way)
The video might be blurry due to YT taking its time to process the video in its full HD glory.
https://youtu.be/lPkQYS7XURo
I tried resetting the phone and clearing the dalvik cache to no avail... And I don't know if its related, but both the Facebook app and the Messenger App crash really easily while doing the most mundane stuff (sending an image is often too much). They both have full permissions enabled. Weird, huh ?
If you know how to fix this, don't hesitate to post your method in this thread

Sorry, I just edited the YT link, now the vid is in english

Hello,
I don't know if it's allowed but I'm desperate soooo... Bump.

Okay i just saw the video. Can you disable notifications during the setup just so that you finish setting up the buds then try again enabling notification access from within the app after finishing setting it up

I tried, it keeps asking for notification permissions and won't go forward. And it does that for other apps that rely on notifications (NotifyEdge for example).

Maybe something wrong with the European firmware. That BA at the end indicates that. Try global firmware. Either stable or beta

Thanks for the advice man, I'll try with the beta and I'll get back to youas soon as possible to let you know and maybe make a psa about EU fw if it's that.

Alright, I'm downloading the beta rn and I'll update you on that ASAP.

Troubleshooting
1. App not getting lauched at boot by macro
Solution :- manually click app on every boot
Or I can provide solution by Tasker but then ppl don't like tasker

Yeah best thing about root is the charge disable capability.
I've been using the Advanced Charging Controller Magisk Module with the AccA frontend app to limit my charge which has been working flawlessly.
I'm curious if your app is a more streamlined version of that?

I hardly believe that setting up AccA on your phone requires more time than setting up yours. And once it has been set up, it does not require further configuration. So mu question would be that what actually makes your app better than AccA?

No, I don't need to set up any dj's in order for to limit my phone to 80% charge. I get what you are trying to do, but just because it is easier to set up does not mean it is necessarily better than AccA. Try to create something that has not already been done, for example the fingerprint reader only works, when you have already pressed the power button etc.. Since alot of custom roms would need that app.

You should improve your attitude. No one is saying that your app is bad, but creating "clones" of other apps is not going to convince users to stop using well known solutions that were created before your apps. All I am saying is that you should try to create something original, be calm and respectful with others and trust me, you will become a much better developer.
