this method works fine! but if i enable Button Mapper accessibility service, i can't enable "one hand mode" with swiping from home to back/recents button.
any idea how to use both features?

Yeah it's a great convenience comparing to the stock softkey! Now I can use my phone easily with just my right hand thumb!
Does it work just like ParanoidAndroid? Slide finger to any side of the screen?

You'd better try it out! It's easily customizable. There're many pie-activate positions in the latest release (1.910) (right and bottom, right and left, etc)
well im having trouble with this app when playing games like avengers initiative or minion rush. the game sumtimes take so much RAM it FC the pie control, n sumtimes i have to wait several minutes for the pie to restart. i tried making the pie a system app, or using local.prop to make the pie unkillable, but no luck. so i had to revert back to normal with buttons

I use LMT and play Minion Rush - too - and even Real Racing 3 without any problem. Maybe the key is that I have Ram Manager Pro configured the suitable memory policy for my specified demands.
Have a look on it (at Play store)! :good:

Hey Wytosandroid, how did you remove/hide your navbar?
I'm so looking forward to using PIE because it's hard for me to reach the back button (left handed)
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the quick response!
Did you use UDN to hide the navbar too? I wonder if the "dangerous method" would work.. and if the build.prop tweak will be able to brick my device? Cause otherwise I could just re-flash my ROM and it'll be fixed I guess :silly:
The safe method requires "Xposed module", I'll research on that in the meanwhile
Thanks again!

[MOD] request: Scrolling Screen Capture + Double Tap to open Camera

Hey there,
Can someone port the Scrolling Screen Capture feature over from the N5 to the N4?
also is it possible to Port the Double Tap to open the Camera while Screen is off/with a secure Lockscreen from the N5/S6 to the N4? I don't want to use Home2 Button.
Greetings,
Kivikaki:
Double tap can easy be set by download xposed and gravitybox and under the hardware buttons you can set the home button to open camera app by double tap

Latest Version of Kyubi already have this scrolling capture ported.

PsiPhiDan said:
Hello All! I currently own an LG V20 and am getting the Pixel XL in February (allegedly). One feature I will need a proper replacement for is the Capture+ app. If you have never used it, It was much like the Note 5/7 in that you can get screenshots of only pertinent parts of the screen.
Being a system app it cannot be downloaded , but I cannot find any apps that do something similar. Does anyone know of any apps that do this? Any other suggestions for quickly getting partial screenshots?

Can't speak for LG, but I'm missing this feature too coming from a Note 4. Since getting this phone I am forced to take full screenshots only, even though most times I needed a small portion only. Would really like to know if there's an app or something for this.

I too wanna port of an app called "Smart Select"【https://youtu.be/OWcAeMXUuS4】 in Samsung S8 which can capture a small rectangular portion, capture in different shapes (predefined or using lasso tool), LONG CAPTURE and a GIF CAPTURE with various pro editing options.
If someone finds any app with all the above features, please reply!!!

And whats that??
The scrolling capture is available by just update your Smart select apk. I'm using 2.0.53 version and it works pretty well. It also will add the gif capture feature. And if you want to scroll capture without taking out s pen to capture with Screen Write, just enable the setting in Display>Enable Edit After Capture. If the option not available, just edit in system/etc/floating_feature and find line with Edit After Capture and change the word FALSE to TRUE
Note: You need to update the Smart select first.

I am using v2.0.55 and there is no scrolling capture feature.... Or do we mean different things...? I mean for example a long screenshot, a screenshot made by scrolling down and capuring everything on the way.

I'm not the developer but in the original linked thread. I believe that feature has been requested!
Currently if you use the action to sleep, it will interfere with MIUI camera function, sleeping the device instead of taking a picture.

Xposed Module Beta
Confirmed working and more stable than without the module.
ztc1997 said:
Early version of the xposed implementation was just completed. I upload it for test only, you need to bear the risk of testing yourself. In addition to xposed implementation, it is no different from the 0.5.0 version, if you do not want to test the Xposed module, there is no need to update.

This is an app you need to install yourself. Doesn't come pre-installed.
The latest version can be found attached to this post or also available from xda labs <<< Open with XDA Labs app.
Fingerprint Gestures
There is an alternative app called "Fingerprint Gestures" that people may like to try instead. But requires allot of permissions.
It marked my device as incompatible, but is also available from xda labs.
Edit: - Just tested on my device and is incompatible for a reason, it doesn't work.

Anyhow, Google has removed the mechanism used by these apps (also the XDA gesture one) in Android 11, so pie controls don't have much future unfortunately...

damnit google ^^ well i found a workaround because i really don't want to use the stock navigation, i now use LMT and fortunally the custom-rom i use offer a navigation switch quick panel, so if i really need to go inside the settings, i can switch it on, navigate with the stock one and can still use LMT again outside. Thats kinda dumb but it works and it's at least something..

Themes / Apps / Mods How-To Enable Two-Button Navigation on Android 12 (Root Required)!

I am a huge fan of the old Two-Button Navigation that Google gave us with Android 9. I always try the latest and greatest with nav gestures and always come away feeling like they are lacking. Unfortunately, Google officially removed Two-Button Navigation with Android 10. Fortunately, there's a way to bring it back! And it's even easier now than it was before! Just install the Magisk Module and enable it in Settings.
Magisk Module: https://www.rwilco12.com/downloads.php?dir=Files/Misc Files/Magisk Modules/Two-Button Navigation

The link won't take you directly to the files like in the video. IDK if they were moved or what, but you can find them pretty easily if you navigate through the folders and find one named "Magisk modules". Confirmed that this does work on the Pixel 6 (oriole).

Lol that's actually not you at all! That's 100% on me and the noob I was when I built the site 10+ years ago. I put a space in "Misc Files" instead of an underscore or something and most browsers don't like spaces. I've wanted to fix that for years but it would require some massive overhauls and updating hundreds of links all over the Internet. Sorry for the pain!

Can you try testing the following:
Turn off Auto Rotate.
Turn your phone sideways while using an app that supports sideways view.
Check if the "rotate display" icon appears.
The reason I am asking is because the "rotate display" icon no longer shows up for me after updating to Android 13.
