Hi,
I have just moved to Samsung M51 from my Moto G5S Plus device. Though i am loving M51 but i am missing my moto gestures in M51 like pick to switch on screen, shake to switch on flashlight, taking screenshots with 3 fingers and locking phone by touching the sensor again while the phone is on. Can i get these in my M51? I've tried few apps from google playstore but those are nowhere close to the features in Moto.
Thanks in advance for your help!!

I am really missing those features too. Coming from my Moto Z Play.
Best option I found so far is to configure the flashlight to left/right swipe on the lock screen. However not comparable to a simple phone chop gesture.
On the Moto Z Play I also loved that I don't even have to pick up the phone to activate the always-on screen to check the time or notifications. I just need to hover with my hand over the screen. On the M51 I can tap the screen (once to show always-on screen with time + notifications) which is "OK" but not at the same usability level as the Moto.
Since my phone usually is in a phone cradle I also preferred the front-mounted fingerprint scanner which allowed me to unlock at a fingerpress and to re-lock with immediate screen off by touching the sensor again. On the Galaxy I need to press a side-button which is less accessible.

What can be wrong? I've rooted and use G3's Tweaksbox. In camera settings, I just disabled shutter sounds and low battery warning. It no longer snaps instantly when tapping on the screen once focused.

I have the same tweaks on mine and working fine have you tried restarting the phone
Are you using the immersive mode? Without all the icons on screen. Tap to shoot should work then.
Warcow is right... U have to hide alll the icon in the camera's app to have touch to shoot working
Thanks everyone! That worked fine! Have to hide all the buttons
Now that this issue is settled.. got a question:
Does anyone know how to force navBar to show in camera? I hate how the back button on the camera is on the left, whereas I configured my back on the navBar to be on the right. while cycling back from sharing a photo, I tend to accidentally tap on the gallery icon on the cam.. as I keep tapping on the right side of my navBar (back).
Forcing the navBar to show would be the best solution though..
Hello guys!
I have problem like in TS.
Back camera don't focus.Use settings Mode->auto. Tap on screen and don't see focus. Tryed hide all icon on the top and with them, all foto without focus.
Front camera make beautiful foto.
It's "brak" camera?
Have Lg g3 F400k.
It is possible to activate finger print gestures in moto z play ?
i saw on YT that someone use that feature but i can't find where should i turn it on.
Here you go:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superthomaslab.fingerprintgestures
well that app have a very little functionality
I think it is a hardware limitation. The Z2 has a different scanner that is wider as well allowing the gestures to work pretty well.

When i lift my pixel 3xl, the Ambient display just lasts for less than a second and the lock screen shows up.
Anyone with the same issue.
Please help.
It's the new changes they made on Android 10, probably for pixel 4 with face unlock features.

Yes its there ****ty ne implementation and i hate it, ambient display only works when set to always on, the other settings like double tap to wake and tilt to wake just shows the lock screen, and notifications show up minus the wallpaper unless you tilt or tap, this is googles idea of new features, mess with the old ones and call it a new feature, remove stock android features because they are better than ours.
Hi V20 users!
One of my favorite features on the Honor 8 is that the fingerprint sensor is also a button that can be mapped to whatever you want. I've found myself very reliant on it as a flashlight toggle, and dread losing it when I get a new phone.
The V20 fingerprint sensor looks just like the Honor 8's, but I've seen no mention of a button build into it. Does it have one?
Has Honor included that feature on any of their phones since the 8/8X?
Thanks!
I don't know about flashlight, but it does support gestures on FP sensor like swipe down for notification pane, you can also use it as a shutter etc.
The Honor 8's Settings has a section called "Smart Key", where you can map apps to a Press, Double-press, and press and hold of the fingerprint button. Anything in the View 20's settings like that?
There are ony sections for "touch and hold" and "slide".
Here's a screenshot.
The Galaxy Z Fold series has always been about shapeshifting, with different ways to increase functionality, whether your device is opened or closed. With the new Taskbar, you can access and switch between apps faster than ever, providing a familiar PC-like layout that puts everything you need right at your fingertips.
With drag-and-drop support straight from the Taskbar, multitasking5 on Galaxy Z Fold is easier than ever. Dragging an app to the edge now opens split view, while dragging it into the center will open it in pop-up view, giving you multiple ways to see your apps and easy switching between views.
Sometimes the best apps come in twos and threes. If there are apps you find yourself using together, you can now add pairs or groups of apps to the Taskbar, allowing you to access your favorite app pairs all at once.
Multitasking features are also more intuitive and easier to interact with now, thanks to new gestures. With simple swipe gestures, you can instantly switch full-screen apps to pop-up windows or split your screen in half for more ways to manage your tasks.
The Galaxy Z series offers a truly versatile photography experience, making the most of its flexible form factors. With Dual Preview, you and your subject can see the shot at the same time before it’s captured by displaying the image both on the Main and Cover Screen. Now with full control of the camera right on the Cover Screen, you can take high-resolution selfies with the main camera using Rear Cam Selfie.
