[Q] Power button instant lock - how to turn off? - Huawei Ascend Mate 2

Hi, got HAM2. Very impressed. Wish it had Qi, but aside really good.
Q: How do I turn off power button instant lock?
Android always has this option, but for some reason I can't find it in settings!

In my MT2-L05 EMUI3.0 it's in Settings/Security/Power button instantly locks.

Settings > Security

No matter the option I choose it still locks immediately after hitting the power button. This option is only if the phone goes to sleep itself after 30 seconds or whatever you have your sleep set to.. I'm looking for a work around for the power button. xposed forms here we go!.. any help from anyone would be helpful

Wow, I just tried it myself and I get the same problem. Good job, Huawei...

Ya... and I'm having a hard time finding a module. any help would be appreciated

My HAM2 doesn't have this problem. I have the Delayed Lock app from the play store which modifies the locking though. I've also frozen the hwunlock lock screen since it was interfering.

Happy to hear. Also if you want to clean up the notification, the Delayed Lock app can still run if you hide it's notification (long press on it then uncheck show notifications), it still works fine and the Notification bar is clean. Mine is set to auto lock after about 20 mins from when I turn off my screen and I also created a shortcut on my home screen to instantly lock it and turn off the screen (have to set wake to lock mode in the settings of the app). If you want to a shortcut like that you can do this in Nova Launcher (or something similar in other launchers). Long press and empty space on the homescreen. Choose shortcuts then delayed lock shortcuts then Lock now (which also turns off the screen).
HAM(2) on Bro!

will Loopy tweak help to keep it work after heavy use ?
I have no idea, but you can try it. I only now that this app have cause some issue when the phone is in Airplane Mode. (you can't connect to network)
Oh haven't checked this. But I won't use this lockscreen due to missing quick setting of sound / vibration .. but i could try to use it from status bar .. i will try once more xD thanks anyway

I made it with loopy tweak and excluded from task killer and even if i reboot the processes with FMR (great app) it's still alive only the airplane mode problem. I think the Pin insertion is included in standard launcher /lockscreen so it doesn't work but i don't need airplane mode LOL so everything 's good.

[SHARE][APP] SwiftOpen - Fast Launcher

Hello. Yesterday, i was searching for an launcher (NOT a home launcher} which allow me to run apps more quickly from any app I'm running at an moment.
I found this app named SwiftOpen. It's thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-swiftopen-fast-launcher-beta-t2871523 .
It allow you to add apps shortcuts, even some settings like wifi, so you can put wifi on more easy. You swipe from right (you can change the place from where to swipe) and the launcher come.Read the whole description of it's thread. Oh, and don't forget to press thanks button to the developer
Review / My opinion:
In my opinion it does a great job. I don't even have to press home button to go in another app. It use about 15 MB ram. Last night i had 58% battery and i kept this app running in background and today, in the morning, i had same battery percent. So, it seems that it doesn't drain battery.
Now i don't even need to use the home button, as i placed an shortcut of "home" in the bottom left
I downloaded the latest version released. I encountered one bug: when i want to change the place of an shortcut, the app crash, but the shortcut get moved.
Here is an screenshot. You see an white square in the right, it's because i kept my finger there to take an screenshot, otherwise the launcher dissapear. By the way, you can add more shortcuts, even Tasker ones !!!

btw i doubt that our SMART phone will stand this kind of multi tasking if i have FB installed
Also found this app recently, it's the best launcher by a long shot. I have a G4 and I hate the softkeys taking up screen space, as you mentioned this app means you don't need any other buttons or home button.
Thanks for the tip to put this launcher in the place of the home button, I had it on the side but now that you mention it that's naturally the best spot to put it.
Do you use it on Lollipop and use the Alt-tab feature?
That's not working for me on 5.1, think it's a lollipop issue?

Fully customise OPX'S capacitive buttons

Rooting and custom kernels has really opened up how much I can push my phones battery life and this hasn't been helped more so than with greenify.
However, when lots of apps start and I want to lock my device, unless I use the hibernate and lock screen shortcut, the battery drain while in standby is present.
Currently, in the OOS buttons section I have my long press or home button set to lock my phone but what I'm really after is for it to lock+hibernate at the same time. Over the past few days I've tried as many different ways as I can and was most hopeful that gravitybox would do the trick but even if I set my buttons in OOS to none, it appears as though this overrides it or gravitybox is not recognising the capacitive buttons on the device
I appreciate any help on any other ways to go about doing this.
Thanks.
I haven't tried this, but what about Tasker? Should be as easy as setting up a profile which launches/activates the hibernation app/widget then use the Secure Settings plugin to lock the screen. You could then assign it to a button in your notification area or activate it when you turn the display off. Just an idea.

Hmm, didn't think about that, I'll give it a go. Cheers.
Heres the solution!
Go to button setting
Keep the long press (home) to search assistant.
And if greenify is installed with xposed , then long press the home button and a pop up will show u to choose ,
Hibernate+sleep ,
Tap on it and tap on always,
And u r ready to hibernate and sleep the device by long pressing ur home button.
It works on cm12.1 and i m using it , but i believe it will work on every rom!

That seems like a great idea! Weirdly though I just tried it and for some reason the screen is still turning off with the long press... Even after a reboot. Odd right?
No idea what's conflicting with it. However your idea seems to work as I managed to the same with the recents capacitive button.
Thanks though, hopefully I can figure it out!

Simpler access to Do Not Disturb?

I recently upgraded from a G3 to a G5. I've done pretty well at adjusting it to my needs, or adjusting to its ways of doing things. But the Do Not DIsturb being buried solely in the Settings menu is really driving me nuts. On the G3, when you hit any volume button, and it opens the volume panel, the Do Not Disturb was accessible there. You could turn it on, set it to Silent or Priority and set a time duration, all from that panel. Now I can turn Do Not Disturb on from the main drop-down on the phone, but I have to open up the settings, from the Settings menu, in order to put in what type of Do Not Disturb I want, and for how long. I have a lot of doctors appointments and I'm starting classes in a few weeks. I would really prefer to have a faster and easier way to access DnD, similar to what was on the G3.
Does anyone know if there's a setting, shortcut, widget, or anything along those lines, that can simplify turn on DnD, with access to its settings at the time you activate it? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Maybe this is not what you're looking for, but a "do not disturb" button can be added to the notification screen. Short press to turn it on/off, long press will take you into settings.
This screenshot is from my G6, but my wife's G5 works the same way. "Do no disturb" is second from right.

It doesn't fully give me what I'd like - which is the ability to turn on DnD and set the parameters of it all at once, on the home screen, as I could with the G3. But it does save me several steps in the process, in several processes actually, knowing that if I hold down on those items in the notification screen it will open straight to their settings. I did not know that. And it's going to simplify a lot of things for me. Just knowing I can easily open Wifi networks, Bluetooth devices, and the like, from that screen, is extremely helpful. Thanks!

I just switched from Mi Max3 to black shark 3 pro.
For Mi Max 3, when I got notification while the screen was turned off. I got the information of that notification right away as in the picture. It's very convenient. Just glance at the screen and get information.
But for BS 3pro, when I got notification while the screen was turned off. It just make a sound and show only the black screen with fingerprint icon as I called "first lock screen".
I have to press power button or unlock it first to see information which is not convenient at all when compare to Mi Max3.
Is there any way to remove first lock screen? Please help.
And you can turn on raise to wake.

Already got used to the lazy way with mi max3.
how about always on screen. you can set it to recognise your face with face unlock and show your notifications or bring you straight to the home screen.
