MOD - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Make a mod in the call pickup (receive) from the fingerprint senser, for the Redmi 5 Plus or all xiaomi devices,,,, please thank you xda devloper team...

I've been searching for that feature left and right ... i have no idea why it doesn't exist.
Edit : MIUI Pro has a feature where it can utilize the Home Button for answering, but that is not a physical button or sensor. Pretty useless if u ask me.

Yes.I need it too.

I don´t know if it is exactly what you are looking for, there is an app called "Easy Gestures - Fingerprint gesture app" in Play Store that it looks that can do this, I never tried.

99% there won't be a pick up call gesture in that app , it needs to be made specifically for the device i think. Built into a Rom or something.

Not needed, fingerprint is a feature present in all newer devices actually, it just need some elevated permissions to work correctly. It works perfect in miui roms, I didn´t try yet in aosp roms.
Of course all of the apps that are implemented natively with the rom they suppose to work better, more responsive and with a lower battery consumption.

Fingerprint sensor as button/swipe surface in CM

Hi,
I'm currently using CM13 on my Honor 5x. Is it possible to use the fingerprint sensor in the same way as in the stock ROM to pull down the status-/settingsbar?
Not at the moment
Is it planned? (let me guess: drivers not available/no hardware documentation?)
I have no idea but it could be, however if 7.1 is brought to 5x then you will use (it's backed in it)

I just did some research:
- As you stated 7.1 (API level 24) will bring this feature (Moves (Fingerprint swipe down gesture - opt-in); https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Android_version_history#Android_7.0_Nougat_.28API_level_24.29)
- As far as I understand CM14 will be based on Android 7.0 which means -> I have to wait for CM14.1 or whatever name the Android 7.1 based Cyanogenmod will have
You're right, our bet to get CM14.1 on devices is like 4 months at least
CM is dead but now there is LineageOS 14.1 with fingerprint sensor support since today.
Anyone knows if it's possible to use the fingerprint sensor as button/swipe surface now? If yes please explain how

Not yet i think, fingerprint gesture was very recently released in the rom so maybe in a newer stage of the rom or in one of the coming next updates they will implement it... (i hope)
but i think you dont expect it for minimaly a week yet...
You have an app in playstore "fingerprint quick action".
Tried it, but only one tap worked for me. Swipe i.e. fast touch and double tap not working.
Swipe gesture need software based on hardware so not so easy to implement

Miui has the function but CM13 dont have the fingerprint camera shutter function.

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.

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.

Follow the instructions exactly on the original thread and the top of the app itself. Turn off AOD and give all permissions. When selecting the apps you want to enable click the app name and select the color you want for that particular app (It doesn't seem to work unless you do that), the name of the app will change to that color. Once it's working you can switch AOD back on.

The Chinese rom could be the problem. Try NoLED on here instead. It's old but still works and does the same thing basically.

I'm on global Pie too and it didn't work until I assigned colors to the enabled apps. Ensure you click confirm for the colors.
However try these solutions:
1) Reboot your device and enable again
2) Uninstall and reinstall
3) Disable AOD before setting up
4) Ensure notification access, autostart etc are enabled.
5) Lock the app in recents
6) Basically give it all the permissions it requires.

Hmmm. App was working great until a few days ago when it started draining the battery on my Nex. All of sudden it started showing up near the top of the battery stats. Uninstalled and everything is back to normal but I miss the functionality. Maybe the next update will rectify whatever it is the developer changed.

How-To Enable Two-Button Navigation on the OnePlus 8 Pro

I love that OnePlus gives us the option to use either gesture or three-button navigation. But I wish we had two-button navigation too! It's the best of both worlds! The good news is that it's super easy to enable Two Button Navigation with a super quick and easy ADB command. You will need USB Debugging enabled on your phone and ADB installed on your computer.
ADB Command: adb shell cmd overlay enable com.android.internal.systemui.navbar.twobutton
Check out the video here to see it in action.
If you are on Android 11, the first method will not work. Please watch this video for instructions on how to get Two Button Navigation working on Android 11 (root required):
Would you happen to know how to get the original OnePlus gestures back to? Just figured I'd ask. Thanks.

they were the OnePlus gestures found on the OnePlus 6t that's what I came from and the back was a swipe up from the bottom corner of the left or the right side and then swipe up home was straight up from the center and then recents was swipe up and hold and then you can also jump to your last app that you opened by swiping up and to the right.

So it took me a few minutes to refresh my memory but I figured out what you're looking for! Good news is that I have the answer, bad news is that it's not what you're looking for.
When Google rolled out Android 10 they basically gave OEM's requirements on how the navigation bar had to work. The old implementation you're looking for is OnePlus's take on gesture navigation and Google basically says don't do it. So when they rolled out the OnePlus 7, they got rid of that option.
There might still be a way to enable it, but I haven't found anything yet. If I do, I'll be sure to let you know!
Here's a really good write up that explains the change. https://www.xda-developers.com/google-gesture-navigation-android-10/

Yes should be nice...
On 6T Android10 , we have both options to choose, google implementation and this one from OnePlus, for gesture navigation..
I believe this app will provide you all the gestures you need, posted elsewhere on these forums.

FWIW, Google doesn't force OEMs to get rid of their own gesture implementation - they just have to hide it behind one extra Settings layer. For example, on the OPPO Find X2 Pro running ColorOS 7.1, you can still enable the swipe-up gestures (the same one from older versions of OxygenOS) as well as Google's full-screen gestures.

I wish it was a bug! Unfortunately, it's 100% by design. With Android 10, Google basically retired any navigation options that weren't their gesture or three-button options. Manufacturers can still include their own options but they have to do it in a submenu and can't use the Google framework files for it. They basically have to repack a bunch of files to get their stuff in the right spot on the menus, to get the overlay to work correctly, and then they have to still push the Google options as the default. It's just not cost-effective for OnePlus (or any manufacturer other than maybe Samsung) to use another option now. This method worked because OnePlus already had the work done on the framework, they just didn't update the menu to show their navigation options. With Android 11, there was enough of a rebase going on that they didn't go through the effort of adding it back in. But hey, this is XDA. I'm sure we'll see some mods in the future that will bring it back though!

why is there no pie control anymore?

i loved to use Paranoid Android's PIE Control on my old phone for years, now on Poco, no Custom-Rom seems to have this feature. Why?

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..
