Going round in circles trying to find what was very easy on the S5.
Is it possible to disable the feature that has the Galaxy phone a contact when swiping to the right? I cannot for the life of me find where I can change this setting? Any help would be appreciated

Not in mine. Contact-settings has the following options only:
1) Only contacts with phones
2) Sort list by
3) Display contacts by
4) Service numbers
5) Contact sharing settings
None of those allow the setting I'm looking for
We all know Xiaomi doesn't let us use multiwindow on its MIUI though its an android nougat feature. However there's a nifty trick to activate this feature on any nougat MIUI device including our Mi 5.
Note that this works on nougat based MIUI only.
First download the app called Button Mapper. You need the pro version.
Playstore link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.homebutton
Open the app and give permission for services.
Go back to the app and click the 'Menu' button. On top activate customisation. Click on long press. Scroll down and select Split screen.
Your device is now ready to use splitscreen or multiwindow feature. Open an app. Press and hold the menu or recents button. Slide your finger from the extreme bottom of the screen to slide the window up. Now you can open and run another app simultaneously. When using two apps at a time, press the outline separating the windows for a few options.
Make sure to allow the app to autostart in Security>Permissions>Autostart.
Not all apps are supported by default but you can do it by enabling force activities to be resizable from developer settings. And this won't always work like you intend. You may face a few bugs.

Just got news that miui is bringing multiwindow in miui 8. The alpha builds will get it first. Quick reoly is probably a long way to go, sadly.
Thank you
The quick reply is really much important and useful then the multitasking window , I hope someone here can find a workaround or an app that can do this without rooting , I have tried some floating apps like notifly but all doesn't provide any thing near the native quick reply feature
works only for menu button? tryed other and no effect

This app causes the 3 fingers slide screenshot to stop working ? Any idea how to avoid this ?

Havent looked into it. This is probably because the app alters input of the device. Does three finger screenshot stop working when using two windows at a time or just after configuring anything within the app?

Just after configuring anything within the app ? I think once you grant accessibility access it tottaly stop working in all cases
Hi everyone!
I found this very annoying problem with my LG G6 when I use an alternative launcher and I activate the gesture double tap to lock screen the phone show me a message with write that this option is not allowed !
Nova launcher have a smart solutions like turn the stand by at 5 sec after the double tap ...it's work but not best solution in addition not all launcher have this options...
LG G6 have in stock the options double tap to awake/sleep ... Why launcher can't works with this ?
I really want fix this annoying problem I hope without root ...
Thanks in advance
I don't have root and use Nova and can unlock my phone with a double tab.
Have you made Nova a system administrator?
Well I think no ... If you don't have this problem.. could you please tell me how do this? Thanks in advance

I wish I could, but I've never had this problem - I've used Nova for a few years, starting on my G4 and it has always just allowed the double tap function, and no different on my G6.
I'd start though by going into the Phone Settings screen > Fingerprints and Security > Phone Administrators and enabling Nova Launcher as admin. If that doesn't work, I'm out of ideas.
I tried your solution but now there's another kind of problem if I activate permission I can't unlock the phone with the sensor finger print ! It's unlock only with pin
Do you have the same ?
Do you use free or paid version of Nova Launcher?
I use the pay version but I have the same problem with all alternative launcher tsf shell for example...
I'm really the only one ?

Are you sure it isn't just asking you to unlock with a PIN for the first time?
I found this post, don't know if it will work not using Nova right now Quote: Go to gestures and click double tap to lockscreen and then choose root. It does work. If your having problems or dont have root, choose to set it as an administrator.
I already set like an administrator but it doesn't work ...

No it ask me everytime I lock with double tap
I found another strange thing .... When I lock phone with double tap on status bar all works perfectly..when I lock it doing double tap in other point of screen it doesn't work ...
Only remaining ideas I have then are to clear the data and the cache of Nova, then uninstall it (as well as any other Nova related apps you have like Tesla, Nova Prime etc). Reboot the phone, then reinstall Nova from the Play Store, then (if you have it) reinstall Nova Prime from the Play Store too.
Press the Home button (circle on the bottom of the screen) and when it asks you which launcher you want to use, select Nova and open it to then go through all the settings. Make sure you allow any permissions it asks for, and follow through with the set up. Then, once that's all done, make sure you make Nova an administrator as per my earlier post.
Hopefully that'll work!
Here is workaround for Tasker users:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=73462212
I read on the web that this annoying problem it's made because a security level introduced nougat that not allow to app to lock the screen ...
Anyway thanks to kulvetti now I solved this problem ! The solution using tasker it's perfect!!
Many many thanks!
Give a try to cm launcher and lockscreen. They provide better lockscreen and more customizations.

open camera, go to camera settings, enable quick launch
What I mean is that, it actually disappeared on the settings. I don't know what's wrong. I recently review all the things I've done but still nothing. Also I tried reflashing my Stock ROM, still nothing works..
I found a pretty easy way to use old OnePlus Gestures on OnePlus 5T running OxygenOS 10
No root required
1. Download this Settings Editor app
2. Open it
3. Choose "System Table"
4. Search for "op_gesture_button_side_enabled"
5. Set its value to "0"
Done! I tested it on a OnePlus 5 and it worked fine. To revert you'll have to set "1" to that property
where download?
Does this app need to be edited? Can you be clearer?
The apk is SETEDIT. and works! Thanks!!!

Yeap. It works flawlesly on 5T
Thks
This should be enabled by default instead of Android's weird gestures .
Funziona perfettamente. Mille grazie
The fact that this can be changed so easily makes me wonder why OnePlus just didn't add a switch to make this an option.
Anyway, thank you very much for saving my Android experience. I loved the classic op gesture because it works perfect even with a bulky protective case while on the other hand the new Google gesture is impossible because I can't touch the screen at the required position with my thumb.
Glad to see that you appreciate my discover
Did anyone realised that this setting is disabling rotation lock feature, too? The small rotation symbol appearing at the corner when you turn your phone is now gone. Hope someone find another hidden setting for this, too

Wow, this is such bs.
Makes me stay on the new gestures. This was one of the things that really made me want oos 10. They could have added that icon in android pie, but they were lazy, samsung had their own gestures in android 9 and they added the rotation button to theirs.
Working. THX.
Anyone else got problems with the activation of goggle assistant while swiping from bottom left or right?

You don't need to use this app if you use the stock gestures? I mean, with stock gestures and no additional tweaking the rotate icon shows up while using the regular gesture navigation right?

Sure, the problem begins when you try to hide navbar and pill. Otherwise it works.

This happen on AOSP rom too, when you try to hide the navigation bar indicator. Tested on crDroid latest version.
I guess this is an Android thing.
