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!

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.

Hi all, I am just wondering if anyone on the latest stable release 9.5.8.0 can confirm the App Vault it toggleable for the home screen. I dislike using it and prefer to disable it (which I currently can on the latest dev build).
Example: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jtyabenqn5ndn56/Screenshot_2018-05-24-19-27-09-272_com.miui.home.png?dl=0
Thanks in advance,
Kaji.
Nobody running this latest stable?
Few are comments, some commenting on a battery drop, no in-built alarm sound, and so on. Probably because of similar comments, some still waiting from updating and commenting on your question.

No worries, are these comments regarding the latest build? If so I probably wouldn't bother updating. Just wanted to check this one thing with the hope the build was actually working fully.

Like, completely gone from launcher or the setting is not there? FYI, the app vault toggle in my screenshot disables the shelf left of the home page of your launcher which includes notes, calander, search etc.
Thanks!
Ah yes sorry, the toggle in the settings is gone but the shelf left on the home screen is still there !

Go to someone you're following and hit the notification bell by "Following" then see if it's turned on for each individual tweet you're following. I turn mine on and off for only the ones I want to follow.

And try a 3rd party twitter app instead of the official one, you don't get those spammy promoted tweets from people you're not following with 3rd party, I recommend "Owly" for a free app

You're welcome, I only found it a couple months ago myself, seems to get pretty regular updates too
Since MIUI 11, a lot of us apparently have trouble making Notifybuddy work properly on our devices.
As it seems like dev of the app has not time / doesn't want to fix the app for MIUI users, I was wondering what was your go to app for screen notifications.
I tried several that don't work either, so I ended using "always on amoled" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.newgen.alwayson).
I spent some time configuring it in the most minimalistic way and it does the job.
What are you using ?

I tried that app and I liked it but the phone never goes to sleep if the clock is active...
I'm using True Edge app, from the same developer.

This is a valid alternative indeed.
But I must say I like seeing the app notification icon on my screen all the time and glowing edges for a small amount of time (and possibly edge reminder every 5 or 10 min)

Such a madness or sis substratum theme
Madness is paid byt sis not
And I'm not sure that works on stock rom you know
However it's mire wise to use custom rom tgat have more clocks by default and you can use themes without any major problem
Hey thank you i wasnt able to find them on playstore. can you link them here

I couldn't get S.I.S. to work. I didn't feel like registering for Telegram just for this, so I didn't look very far into it. Building the lockscreen themes stated that it couldn't find certain resources to replace, so it aborted.
I did get Madness to work, however. Since it focused so much on the lockscreen and not AOD, I was a bit skeptical... but every lockscreen clock I tried out worked just fine with AOD, though finding one I wanted to use was a bit time consuming. All I wanted was a large clock despite using tiny DPI text in the OS. There were a couple larger clocks that were not affected/ruined by my DPI settings.
It seems like there's an issue when the device is unplugged, the AOD clock doesn't reliably update. I've heard that homescreen widgets can have this issue if a non-system font is used for the clock. I may have to do some more research about this as it's a sizable problem to have a visible clock with the wrong time. (sometimes off by more than an hour)

The AOD clock is controlled by System UI. Adaptive Battery has never interfered with Android's own clock before. Help me understand what your thought process is...?
I admit that I haven't done a lot of research on the internals of substratum, but my impression was that it did not use an active process to make the changes.
Turning off adaptive battery didn't help.
This is what I'm experiencing that only started after using the substratum modification.

Thanks for tracking this thread down before I had the chance to look at Telegram, heh.
I tried rebooting without making any substratum changes, then disabling and re-enabling Motion Sense. Unfortunately, it didn't help.
It seems that it takes a couple hours idle for it to start happening. Then once it happens, it will keep happening until the phone is fully unlocked. Tapping the screen will update the time once, but it still requires an unlock or similar(?) to fix for longer than a minute.
Approaching the phone with only motion sense waking the phone will not even update the time, even though it shows the lockscreen wallpaper instead of being dark.
