You mean to keep the screen on? (since technically, an AMOLED screen doesn't actually have a backlight?)
Check out "KeepScreen" in the Play Store.
Hi mate two thing, First check this, all from Play Store:
Screen Timeout Widget
Screen Timeout Toggle
Power Widget lite
Second , no needed to write with big font and all in red for one questions.

don't flame me....maybe a stupid Q.....but still a very annoying use problem, that I can't figure out:
meny times In a middle of texting/browsing or using an app....I'm disturb by something else......and the phone goes to standby>>>>....OK?
The problem is : that when I wake it up....I have to do all the way to the specific last app/sms
is there a way to customise that wake up ? so it will take you directly to your last action?

yes I use widget locker & and yes the app is still running >>> that is not the point :
My problem is that I have to brows few screens to get there
for example if I read an article?....and the screen turns off?
I have to open my browser again and find the icon first >>>>> instead of getting right back to the original article >>> when I turn the screen on
think that you are on windows and the screen goes to sleep ?
you are moving the mouth......and ? landing to the same place
simple no ?
I can't figure it out how to apply that on my phone
Take widget locker off, personally I don't see the benefit of such things.
You touch the home button and have the options on the lock screen to call etc. But with the likes of no lock, when you touch the home button, it will open at your last app, or your home screen where you can text call from, same thing! Yes?
Anyway I posted this today, quicker and will have the result you want...

U may have changed a setting somewhere, because whatever screen was active on my phone when the screen turned off would also be active when i unlock the device. And when I say active, I mean if I was on a webpage and the screen turns off, when I unlock, the webpage is the first thing I see

The benefit of widget locker is that it provides me with the type of lockscreen that I want on my device, and the benefit of Android is that I actually have that choice, just as you have the choice to not use it as you don't see the benefit...

Guys I think we all should help each other by sharing the best apps and games you've been using yourself and believe that will help other Quattro owner to enjoy the device to the fullest. Please do share them along with the benefits/fun you got using it.
Let me start a few from my end.
1. Smart Screen ON: This app has helped me alot to turn the backlight on without pressing the home button making it safer from early wear and tear. This is surely help you guys as well. :good:
2. Air-Call Accept: It a great app with very limited features, Turn it on. And when there a is a call swipe your hand over the phone or accept or reject the call or you may straight away put the phone close to your ears to answer the phone. (The best thing of it I like). Try it and you'll love it. :victory:
3. Lux Lite - Auto Brightness App: Again one of my favourite apps. You can select camera as an sensor for detecting light and it will auto adjust the screen brightness. Love the way it works. Read complete HOW TO use the app and you'll understand it more.
4. Photo Editor by Aviary: Quick and precise phone editor I've ever used. I use many others too but believe me this is real quick for our phone and have many options to use for editing photos. You can also add memes to the images .Try it.
5. Clean Master (Cleaner) - FREE: Again this is a great app that helps you maintain your phone better and make you stop complaining about its speed and lags and all. It is necessary to clean up the unnecessary cache files to make the phone work smoother. This app serves the purpose. :highfive:
Now, You cannot miss an app that everyone wants it first when they buy a phone. (Best Battery Saver)
According to me that app is Du Battery Saver free.
6. DU Battery Saver & Widgets: Haven't tried many other battery saver apps, but I will share the one that I'm very comfortable with and hope when you use, you'll be at ease too. This app does the work that is expected from it. The various Modes help alot in setting up the battery accordingly. There is not regret in using it since I bought my phone in early May 2013 just few days after its launch.
I hope these apps will help you maintain your phone better. Some of you might already be using it, if yes, please don't think the post is boring. I've tried to help the others who don't know about these apps.:good:
Thanks and Cheers to all happy and to be happy owners of this phone (Galaxy Grand Quattro).
Use the Swipe Home Button App- with that you can customise the swipe to make it work like the home button, as a result you do not have to long press the Home button to view running apps...hence this app takes a lot of load off the physical home button
Nice app ! ! !

A Very decent app it is for all of us. :good:
I'm already using the gesture controls of Nova Prime Launcher and this started conflicting a bit with previous gesture controls.
But this is really a great app with multiple gestures performing various frequently using tasks. Keep it up. :victory:

why dont u try the same by using gravity box then using any app..,also gravity box has many tweaking as i moded the long press of the menu button to load previous app which gives some fun of multi window also the long press of the back button has the same function as that of long press of the home button.....
I'm using Lux and it works very well using front camera! Most auto-brightness apps don't have this feature (they require light sensor instead). But I didn't get how SMART SCREEN ON works...

How to:
Sorry not able to upload images. I forgot usb cable somewhere.... :silly:
Step 1. Install and tap on the icon and click on BASIC. Tick Enable Smart Screen ON (SSON), Start on boot and Hide icon (if you want).
Step 2. Tap on wave hand mode. Tap set automatic value, now wave your hand over the device the way you want the lights to go ON. Means wave hand once and tap I like these values, if you want the lights to turn on in single wave. Or wave twice and select I like these Values
And ofcourse turn that feature ON.
Step 3. Only if you need. Tap and swipe On. This does the same thing as a hand wave does, but instead of hand wave you tap once on the sensor or swipe your finger across it.
Step 4. Now tap Save and restart app. And you are ready to go. :fingers-crossed:
When done. Screen off your phone and wave hand over the phone. And the backlight will turn on, so that you can atleast see the any notifications you received.
Note: SSON sometimes don't work because it supports devices without screen lock better than devices with screen lock turned ON. This is very rare when it doesn't work. Maybe once in every 15 or 20 times. Pretty decent, Isn't it?
Cheers :good:
Wow! It's so cool! Thanks for tutorial! Works perfectly.
Hi i want to share what apps i use in my GT-I8552. ill be very brief and simple.
1. Tasker - i use this app for:
~Automatically changing my wallpaper. (i have a parameter to save battery).
~Sound and light profile. (i use this to change modes, Day/Night mode).
~Removing my PIN LOCK when i am home.
~Automatically put my phone in Power Saving Mode
~Automatically Turn On my GPS for Specific Apps
~Automatically Turn Off my GPS/WIFI/Bluetooth after sometime of inactivity (or even i turn it on, it will check if i am using this functions or not)
~Automatically Turn On Screen Rotate for specific apps (buggy or i just dont really like my screen to rotate).
Note: i used an extension for some settings the app named -Secure Setting-
2. Foldersync - i love this app even though it can be used with tasker but the app alone is awesome! i use this to sync my music/pictures/video to different cloud storage. but in music i use 2way function because i am downloading music in my pc and i just want my phone to sync wirelessly.
3. Camera Zoom FX <- Awesome for taking pictures (if you can suggest better app why not? )
4. Adaway
5. Titanium Backup
Thanks will be appreciated ! ! !

Hello,
been loving my mate 10 which I own for 3 weeks now.. but there are just somethings that keeps bugging me. I try to check hi care to see but don't to use the phone to talk about something I know the support from our country can't answer.. So here are some questions that you guys might have some solution to...
1. Notofications DPI - been trying to resize this via dev mode, but to no avail.. Is it just me or that thing is really big?
2. mini display view when not using nav bar - no instructions how to do this is you don't like to use the nav bar and maximize the screen.
3. PiP - i know this doesn't work in youtube unless you are a red subscriber but, it doesn't work with chrome as well..
I'll try to add more if I see some, but the 1st one is tbd biggest problem I have. I tried going to a huawei store and they just showed me the mate 10 pro and p10 capable of minimizing font in notifs when view mode is set to small...

Hi all,
Any ideas where I can find a floating dock for Nokia 8? My primary purpose is to be able to avoid using the button on the side to turn the screen off/lock the device. There are several available on the Play Store however they do not offer the ability to turn the screen off individually. I have to enter the pin when I wake up the device?
Alternatively, any gesture app would work too...I coud doube tap anywhere on the homescreen to turn the screen off!
Thanks!

You can use Microsoft Launcher and set home button as turn off screen.
If you don't mind widgets, Screen Lock by Prahallad works. No problem with fingerprint/PIN (have to enable support in settings). Doesn't fully lock immediately; screen blanks then in few seconds device enters actual locked state.

yeah well, then again, its a whole launcher....I like my pixel launcher as is....just need a small app for the dock...not looking to install an entire launcher for that purpose. But thanks man!
P.s. I did install it and check it out....however, it locks the device rather than turns the screen off....so back to square one
Hello all!
I've seen it somewhat posted throughout the comments here but no thread on it directly. I figure the potential of this this deserves it's own thread and tutorial for those who are coming from Google to try and do exactly this without reading through a few threads.
Anyways:
How to enable Wide View on every app:
Download this app,G8x WideMode.
This puts a new icon in the top bar in the notification shade. If you don't see it, pull down twice and hit the pencil to edit the icons. Find the new one and place it somewhere near the top to keep it close by.
When the dual screen is open, tapping that will force wide screen in every app! There are some limitations:
Intent changes seem to revert the phone back to two separate pages. For instance, the mobile Reddit app Sync closes wide screen if I click any link to an external picture, video or site.
Some apps do f play nice in wide screen due to this, and you can't keep the phone permanently in the mode like a tablet, but it's a great improvement to a great phone idea.
This is super simple so I didn't think pictures were necessary, but let me know if I wasn't clear on anything or if you have problems somewhere!
This is very much appreciated! It works like a charm. It's not the floating dual screen thingy but the toggle buttons that you swipe down from the top. Make sure you add it.
Hey, this app seems to work great! I did have an issue with one app called Steam Link. Steam Link allows you to connect to a computer running Steam and remotely control it from your Android device. When I launch a game and try to use WideMode the Steam Link app refreshes and goes back to a single screen. I would love to be able to play some of my steam games over both screens.

I don't understand. couldn't you just auto rotate? you can also use the rotation control app to lock rotation, which helps with wide Mode

auto rotation did not work because some apps are forced landscape/portrait.
I did end up using the rotation control app with the per-app conditions. :good:
Next nice thing would be if some apps would restart at the new resolution, instead of stretching the single-screen app - some apps/games work perfectly, but others don't (and I think they should have a similar resolution compatible because I've used the axon M, which has "dual screen" retained through home with those apps).
