Shortcuts. - Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any way to clear all recent apps at once? Or a way to use the chop to turn flashlight on?

Enable the double chop in the Moto app for the flashlight to work.
Moto, Stars in the upper right hand corner, Actions, Chop Twice for Flashlight.

As for clearing all apps at once? Don't think there's an option for that on moto phones.

Question about use of sensor on back

I love that I can tap the back heart rate sensor to take pictures instead of tapping the on screen button. My question is this.
Is it possible, once rooted, to somehow use the sensor to take screenshots instead of the karate chop hand swipe or removing the s pen? I think it would be very useful if possible.

Pretty sure...but you can also use the Power+Home button to take a screenshot. Push and hold both buttons down.

Home Button Double tap?

Is there a way to change the double tap of the home button to something other then the camera. I'd like to put a different app on this if possible?

I've been using a combination of Home2 Shortcut and Recent Task 2 to have my home button launch recent apps when I double tap it. You must disable the double tap camera function on your S7 to get it to work.
Home2 Shortcut is a really old app but it still works. It acts as a home launcher replacement that listen to how many times the home button is tapped. The app's settings lets you choose what app to open when it's double tapped and what home launcher to open when it's single tapped.
Thanks, shoremunkey, I'll try them out.
Yes, download "Home2 Shortcut" app.

Thanks, that's what I was looking for.
Also "all in one gestures". It doesn't have the double tap feature, but it allows you to reassign the home back and recent buttons to whatever you like. It provides different functions for holding, and also gives the option to use edge swiping.
For example I changed the "back" function to the recent button because I'm left handed, when I that button it kills the foreground app. The back button has the recents function and when it's held it takes a screen shot. Then I used a swiping gesture from the bottom of the screen to drop the notification drawer. It works great especially using finger print unlock because as soon as it unlocks I swipe my thumb up the screen and it shows my notifications.
Hey do you mind telling me how you got home2 shortcut to work. I disabled the camera double tap shortcut and assigned an application in step one however for the last step "close" closing the dialog, I am not presented with an option to choose a launcher like the app says. Thanks

easy way to do print screen and disable "place finger to unlock" stage

I keep trying to do a print screen by pressing the rear power button and volume down but its very difficult as most times the volume just goes down. never had such an issue with the g4 I had
another thing is double tapping and going in through the draw password.
when double tap the screen it doesnt give you the option to draw the password. I have to swipe first then I can draw the password which is a pita. any way to enable a double tap to go straight to draw password option? why dont this people test these things?
how the hell do I disable google assistant crap "ok google" ?
1. easiest to do the screenshot with the VOL- button just before power.
2. No.
3. not sure as i like assisstant.
@rocketman1 I keep trying to do a print screen by pressing the rear power button and volume down but its very difficult as most times the volume just goes down. never had such an issue with the g4 I had
This one can be easier, you can use the quick memo ( Aka Capture + Plus )options and it will take screenshots for you, as i believe holding Vol down will do the quick memo screen shot if its on in the settings under ( Shortcut Keys)

This is to keep your code from accidentally being put in during pocked use if it turns on. I dont believe it can be shut off without some bigger edits to systemui

disable the google app from your app settings.

Or just disable the Google Assistant, if you prefer:
Here's how to disable Google Assistant:
1. Open Google app
2. Tap on Menu (three lines) on top left
3. Tap Settings
4. Under Google Assistant, tap Settings
5. Scroll halfway down the menu, and voila! A toggle to turn the Assistant off.
2. Funny, coming from the G3 I had similar questions. Not sure I need to swipe before entering knock code. Worked fine without on the G3. At least you can knock directly with the screen off, bypassing this, but sometimes I turn on my screen to see the notifications and the extra swipe is an annoyance.
3. Unfortunately if you disable it in the settings, then you lose the "Ok Google" from Google Now. Instead it just prompts you to turn Google Assistant back on. Similarly, if you turn on Google Assistant but don't give it Web & App Activity + Device Information data (which is every app switch you do, every movement of your phone or touch of the screen), then it takes your question but then just *****es at you.
Only workaround I've found for now (probably won't last forever) is to set your keyboard language to English US Virgin Islands, a region where Google Assistant is not yet supported. You might need the root app Language Enabler or some other method to enable that language. Hopefully someone finds a better resolution.

Double tap vs single tap options

What are people's thoughts on double tap to wake or the ambient display option of single tap. You can't have both. Selecting one will disable the other.
What's the difference? I can't really tell.
I like the single tap.

Double tap goes to the lock screen (and immediately enabling Face Unlock for those who use it), and single tap enables the Ambient Display.
Double tap is like the power button, single tap is like picking up the phone.
Single tap cant light up the phone in a trusted place, you will still have to unlock it after you bring up the ambient. Not sure if that matters to most people but it's why I'm on double tap.

Possible to clone stock camera on OOS 10?

Hi, i have stock OOS 10 and I am looking for a way to clone the stock camera app (mine is ver 3.0.66) so that i can have a "duplicate" stock camera.
I´m trying to have a duplicate camera so that i can deactivate the main one, thus making it impossible to access it from the lock screen (bottom right corner).
I have tried using App Cloner but the cloned camera doesn't seem to work properly, as some features are not available (such as 1080p 60fps video recording, portrait photos, google lens, and some other settings). I tried playing a little bit with the options but i really have no idea what mos of those are for.
I like the stock camera, it does more than enough for what I want so moving to another one is not an option. Does anyone know how can i properly clone it, or maybe someone can upload a cloned APK ready-to-install?
Thanks in advance!

No interest... Why do complicate when you can do simple
Just use Gesture for Run OOS Cam from the Double Tap bouton ON/OFF
Settings > Button & gestures > "Quickly turn on camera"
(press power button twice for camera)
or
Settings > Button & gestures > Quick gestures > Screeen of Gestures
(Choose a "Draw O/V/S/M/W" shortcut for launch camera, advise the O, gesture is quick and simple)

Thanks, and I'm already doing that, but what I'm trying to do is get rid of the camera shortcut icon on the bottom right corner without having to root. If i disable stock camera, then that shortcut disappears, but I'm left without a camera, and i really like the stock one, that's why i want to clone it with a different package name
