What's this app name? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello I'm jonathan michael. And I was wondering if someone knows this app.
Description of the app:
This app needs of root access I think lolz. It has the options to turn to the next home screen by passing your hand true the phone without touching it and it don't use the front camera to be able to use this options. It also can turn the device off by passing your hand up or down left or right whatever the option you choosed, and you can do all this without touching the device or use the camera. It just like a hand motion thing. I'm hoping someone knows what's the name of this app!

Not sure about Changing the home screens.. But there is one app with which you can lock and unlock device by swiping fingers near display.. It's smart screen on/off

Seemed to make my touchscreen better.
Im sorry I should have been more clear after awaking the device the 1st and usually the second swipe or touch doesn't register ...it kind of gets annoying

You might try using widgetlocker, though that is a paid app. It allows you to customize your lock sceen with different unlock themes and widgets. I've never had an issue with it registering my unlock after wake.
I found the problem ...fancy widget when enabling weather animation the touch screen lags for a second or two works good now

[Q] Favorite Forgotten Feature?

Pretty certain mine is the ability to swipe the notification bar left to right to adjust the brightness (assuming the auto-brightness is off).
So, whats your fav lost feature?
I know I have posted a lot of these in the tips/tricks, but its been a year.. some are old and forgotten. Could be new to people. Maybe there are new Tricks since I made that guide.

The thing with numbers I think its called dial pad but you put in a sequence of numbers and you can actually talk to your friends. That's pretty cool.

Swiping the letters to get specific artist names in songs to the music player. Swipe it while swiping it and you'll get and even more in depth search..

Facial Recognition locking app

I found this app in the Samsung GS2 forum.
From what I understand this app is also available through the android market. I am not taking credit in anyway for the development of this app just liked it and decided to post it here for us too use.

Thanks for sharing, this is great. But one gripe, it puts an icon in the notification bar and of you drop it down and select it, it takes you to the setting so anyone can change the settings.

If you turn off the lock notification, you cant launch the app from the pulldown.

Thank you, that works! Also in the setting you can check off the app also so if you try opening the app itself, it is also protected..I should have thought of that lol.

It works its just that my brother and mom can get in with no problem. Haha I'll test it out on some friends to see if its worth keeping.
thanks alot cool app works great on my 3vo
I have tried it with a few friends it kept them out. Not saying its perfect but you can also try raising the security level to high. Just makes sure you take a variety of test pics in different lighting for the best results

I found a flaw though. On sense 3.0 if the application you have locked is on your lock screen, it somehow opens the app anyways, therefore this app is useless.

Are you sure the app was running? I just tried my lockscreen and it locked it for me. Make sure you have the notification on and that the icon is in your notification bar, so can make sure the app is running. Something else you can try, there is a setting that allows you change whether or not you have to constantly unlock it or unlock one app and it stays unlocked

Can this be used as a lock screen? Is there a setting I may have missed?
Great idea and app.
Thanks for any assistance.

you can turn the setting off where it stops prompting to Face Rec every time you turn off the screen and open the app.
I cant wait for it to be used in conjunction with the lockscreen/unlocking the phone...
It makes me feel like im somebody off of mission impossible or something...

I figured out a workaround...
Install "Agile Lock" (free on Market, and a Sense 3.0 lockscreen that's meant for AOSP ROMS normally) https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.SenseScreen
and set the app to activate when used...
Profit.

I set this to lock golauncher, which works well as phone wont launch after unlocking it until face verified. UNLESS, you slide an app to the lockring, then it bypasses it and I think crashes visidon, becuse i then have to open the app and back out to make it work again. Would be a sweet app if this was fixed.

rezound touch screen responses bigger than we know?!cool discovery

okay so last night i was just messing around with the app drawer when i noticed i could drag the sliding bars across the bottom around even when my finger was basically off the screen , basically touch the slide bar then slowly drag ur finger down until just above the htc symbol (where menu back ect ) then slide normally left to right , now this works with all things like this such as file browsers internet ect. this is crazy did they build a working touch screen section just for the softkeys, i believe this could open up door in development such as gestures (swiping from home to search to go to previous app or something ) possibilities are endless when you have an extra cm of touchsreen space lol anyways i just wanted to get it out there and let ppl and devs know that theres a whole area we are not rly using to the full potential and to see the types of stuff we could create from it
ill attach a photo of the extra area mine goes a lil past the htc symbol
Just confirmed this. In the app drawer, hold & press "All apps" to rearrange, then (while still pressing) slide your finger down/ across the home/menu function keys. The touch screen still responds in this area. pretty cool.
Doesn't work that well.

Interesting...I wonder if its just there for the capacitive buttons but since you started with your finger on the visual part of the display it continues to work with the GUI instead of the buttons.

Apps for TFs keyboard

Hi there. I was just wondering if there are any apps which would make some of keyboard's or maybe mouse's buttons work like tapping some certain points on the screen. It could work amazingly with many games or apps. Is there something like that?

Like a macro, pressing and tapping automatically?
I'm not sure what "macro" is. you mean "the toucher" or similar apps (they record your moves and then repeat it)? I wanted to try but all of them need root which I didn't make. Either way I think this is not what I'm looking for.
