Hey gang, I was considering purchasing spigen's new slim armor with the sview cover on it. The problem is, I no longer use the touchwiz based roms anymore. Will the sview functionality (the little preview window) work on an AOSP-based rom? Or is that a samsung specific functionality?
Oh and if it doesn't work out of the box in AOSP does anyone know of an xposed mod or anything else like that that would enable it?
Thanks,
Nico

S-View still works with AOSP but it is limited to just calling. The clock works but text messages & timers & such to not display because it only works with samsung apps.

So I have a flip case for the S4, and it has this little cut out of glass that gives me a black screen with some basic information in it.
I have no idea what to call that screen but is there a way to say change the black to an image, and maybe change the color of the text ?
Think it's not allowed because of the hit in battery. It's black and has limited info because of the oled screen. But there may be a way to customize.
The s view is what it is called. It can be changed with 3minit on sacs ROM.

Thanks, I have not got around to flashing a custom ROM after I rooted it. but I will check out that ROM or see if there is a way I can flash the 3minit framework to the stock rom.
It helps knowing what I am wanting to change. I was searching things like "close cover screen" and got nothing.

yeah with 3minit you can change color text and there is an xposed app that lets you display meta info from any music player like spotify and google all access i think it was called S-View Controls

I do have xposed installed , and that has made it so I dont feel the need to flash a custom ROM so far. The only real things I want to change is the s-view and remove a TON of bloat from the phone.
Here is a link to the 3minit framework if anyone else sees this and wants to try.

I am going to read more about it latter on, and see if it will work with a Stock ROM - Even if not, I guess its time to flash a custom ROM anyway.

I recommend Sacs Custom Rom, Its constantly being updated fast and good battery life, all bloatware has been removed and its 3Minit certified. Check it out.
Just make sure when you modify the S-View settings you don't pick anything to bright. The phones that utilize the s-view case usually suffer from severe screen burn in after awhile.
so what i really like in my stock 4.4.2 is the knock on /off and I tried CM 10.2 but sadly I noticed I dont have knock off...
I want a simple rom...I like how nexus clean version of android looks and feels..I want a minimalistic rom...
I really liked the option in the oneplus one to drow a pattern when the screen is of and activate a certian app if theres a rom wich include it ill like to hear(I guess maybe CM 11 but I havent tried it yet becuse its still in nightly version)
I have a VS980, and I have flashed most of the ROMs available in the dev section for it. I don't believe that any AOSP-based ROM is going to have knock-off, so you would have to use one of the stock based (such as Malladus or XDABBEB). These in general aren't going to have minimalist look of AOSP based ROMs though.
Your other choice is to run an AOSP ROM with Xposed. I know that the Xposed GEL Settings module has an option to set double-tap to an action, though that may be a premium feature you have to donate to receive (which I recommend anyway, as it is an amazing module).

Paranoid Android has knock on + knock off (you have to use the notification bar; doesn't work anywhere else as far as I know).
The list of features is here: [Change Log] Paranoid Android [AOSPA]

yeah but i dont want to reach every time...and it wont be comftrable while driving for example
Another option, if you're OK with using a launcher other than the GEL, is to install the Apex launcher. I believe it gives you desktop knock off in its free version.
Using this launcher, you can use any ROM you'd like, as long as it provides knock on. I think most ROMs for the G2 provide that.

I think you should search for voice controlled apps and such. I don't know if Google Voice can help you.

I meant I dont want to reach the notification bar...becuse the way the phone is set at my car I can reach the bottom half of the screen without streching....
anyway...Ive seen several mods that gives me full KNOCK OFF and I am currently looking for a clean AOSP style ROM to use...if someone have a link for a guide that teachs how to use 2 roms so I can test a new one without having to back up and stuff i'd love to get it
I keep looking for a way to disable the knock on feature with KitKat based ROMs, but haven't found a way yet. I'm running SlimKat on a LS980 right now, but none of the other ROMs have had the option to disable the knock on feature.
It is great to have until I try running with the phone or using it to do manual work while listening to music. It keeps changing songs, opening websites from Google now, rearranging my home screen apps, and sometimes managing to call people.
Does any one know a easy way (or stable ROM) to have the ability to deactivate knock on? I'd love to be able to turn it on and off easily like WiFi or Bluetooth so when I need the feature I can have it, but when I don't it isn't a pain.

you should specify you want a solution for aosp based kitkat because on stock(the lg themed one that came with the phone) you can go to settings>gestures and turn it off/if the proximity sensor is covered it doesn't allow knock on to work to prevent it from unlocking while in pockets and stuff
BUMP!
I'd like to know as well! The screen keeps coming on while in my pocket. What file/code/apk/ect is responsible for Knock-On?
I'm running AOSP C-ROM 7.1.

It is mainly kernel which is in charge of knock on so unless you know how to create kernel there isn't much you can do

Access the hidden menu on your phone and disable knock on
EDIT: that would be for stock lg rom, but you could still try with your aosp kk rom

[Q] As above peeps. Im currently running a Samsung based rom and the open close of the cover kills the screen....but not on the AOSP based roms....is there an app for this or is there some functionality in the aosp rom that I can use to switch this on - if I can then id rather go the aosp route.
Cheers to anyone that chips in.
I'm using cm11 snapshot m11, device turn on/off works fine with s-view cover. You can also install hal monitor if you want more features..

So, your saying from a stock install you can open and close the cover and it works....?
Yes..
OK - brilliant - ill try that rom.....I can only thing it was one of the ones I was using just happened not to have that functionality....cheers
Hi guys.
Do any of you have an idea how to get the sview cover to work on CM12, or if it's even possible to get it to work?
From what I've googled, people say it requires Samsung framework, but there are (as far as I can see) apps that support CM11 and others.
CM12 runs fantastic on my 9005, but I really miss the sview functionality.

I tried the Lite version of this before and tried it again. Still, nothing. (I assume I would be wasting my money on the PRO version if the lite version doesn't work)..
Did you do anything in particular to make it work? (I mean, other than starting the service in the app)
Thanks. For me, the s-view is an important thing... keeps me on a stock rom.
Problem is that original sview cover uses magnetic sensor and 3rd party are proximity, so the apps on playstore just turns off the screen.
