Screenshot delay with Nougat - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

After the nougat update, taking a screenshot is no longer instant like it was on 6.0.1 You need to press and hold power down for a second before the action is triggered. I happen to take a lot of screenshots, and find it annoying/inconvenient. Does anyone else share the same?
Is any dev here able to port the screenshot utility from 6.0 to 7.1.1?
@DrakenFX @Unjustified Dev any inputs? If any files are needed, I'm still on 6.0.1 and can help you with those.
Others feel free to chime in as well!
Thanks.

It's not lag. Now it required to press and hold both buttons.
I have no idea why they changed this but on LineageOS it's the same.

I know that it's not lag. On 6.0.1, it was modified by ZTE to not require to press and hold. Just a short press of both the buttons would trigger a screenshot, which made it extremely convenient. I want to have the same functionality on 7.1.1. I don't think it'll be a big task to change that, but I don't really know how to

Just enable the 3 finger pinch setting in settings/gestures.

It isn't convenient. Power+volume down is a perfect one-handed gesture.

Is it not possible at all to change the long-press delay for screenshots? It has really been bugging me, after the convenience on 6.0.1

Its all good with B02 7.1.1.

I've still got it on 7.1.1(MiFavor4.2) A2017.
Also I just need to press both buttons to take a screenshot not holding them.

I'm also running 7.1.1, MiFavor 4.2.15. But 3 finger pinch doesn't do anything.
In Marshmallow they used to have a Settings menu for the pinch to screenshot feature. That has been removed entirely. Searching for screenshot has no results in the settings search.

Searching doesn't work. You should go to Settings/Features/Gestures and Motions/three-finger pinch

Why double tap or any number of taps??
If you tap on your screens, you may have a chance of mistakenly opening an app!
This following solution is more practical:
"Swipe home button" in Play store. An easy and practical way to get to home screen, works well.

How's battery usage? Is it significant?
Also, I'm using the version you posted but it's not working when the screen is off. I'm sure I deactivated all app-killing process. I don't think it's this.

Some parts are, I am unable to do things like remap buttons etc and it crashes if you try to do any quick management editing (which is to be expected). On the plus side, the developer has just ordered the 3t and is planning on making a full;y comparable version for us

That's right. But I still have to wait to have device in my hands as it's currently hard for me to assess what it will take and whether it is worth to work on Marshmallow version considering 3T is receiving Nougat in couple of weeks, which seems to be quite different (hopefully more AOSPish) compared to OOS 3.5.
The only one I seem to find a use for is "Ringer and notification unlink" so that I can separately set notification levels. It adds the slider with the others in settings/sound.
Is there any module to auto hide the navbar after a certain time to prevent burn-in?

a must have is "app settings 1.13" for the simple reason you can change orientation, dpi, keep on, and much more on any app

I tried the pro version but couldn't find it so I did a refund. I can only get it to start an app.
That's sad, maybe I've just been using it for so long it seems simple to me. I guess it just wasn't meant to be for you then because it works perfectly on every phone I've ever had including this one.

I read somewhere that you have to long keep pressed both buttons.
Also, on Marshmallow there was a gesture you could enable that was three-finger pinch in to take a screenshot. Is that still available?

What is your phone language set to? Searching for gesture finds 'Gestures & motions' perfectly fine.
...otherwise just go to Settings > Features ?

Oh, it's hidden behind a slider ?.
One would have thought, that a setting with a slider only allows you to change the slider position on/off and doesn't contain another list of settings.
// I see now, there is a small bar to the left of the slider...
Thank you
Sure.

Navigation Geatures question.

For those that are using the navigation gestures. Have you noticed that the back button on the right or left stops working. Only gesture that works is the swipe home.
Everything is fine on my phone. Stock ROM, blu.spark kernel, rooted, OOS 9.0.5.
Haven't had any problems here either, working as it should the whole time
I am on stock 9.0.5 and it happens every once in awhile.

I've been using gestures nav since I got the device 2 days ago and so far I haven't had any issues with it.
I just had the issue 5 minutes ago. The back just stops working. I get the haptic feedback but does nothing. Only swipe to go home works. After I go home it starts working again.

That could be the app that you were running at the time. They can override the default behaviour of the back button. Can you remember what app you were using? I know for a fact I have a few apps that make you press back twice before they will exit.

The nice and quick "drag and throw" kind of gesture doesn't work in landscape, if that's what you're referring to. You just get the recent apps list and select the last app from there.

Yes, which is how you can bring up the recent apps list, but you can't do the quick throw gesture to toggle the last app, like you can in portrait.

[HOW TO] Use old OnePlus Gestures on OnePlus 5T running OxygenOS 10

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!!!

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

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.
