So we all know the Nexus 4 camera rotates the ENTIRE screen (not just the button orientation) when you go from portrait to landscape. Well, I installed widgetsoid so I can have a custom notification bar widget, a flashlight on the homescreen, and the ability to disable the rotation sensor. Well, on 4.2.2 stock, if the rotation sensor is disabled and you open the camera, the screen won't rotate, but the pictures will be right side up at any orientation!
TL;DR. Disable screen rotation, take a picture. No more screen rotation delay.
I have a rooted 6p running the latest stock rom, and I have two questions about flashlight:
1) Is there a lockscreen widget that would allow me to turn on the (camera) flashlight by e.g. double tapping an icon on the lockscreen, without first unlocking the phone?
(I installed gravitybox and I can put on the lockscreen an icon of a third-party flashlight app, but to run that app I need to first unlock the phone with pin and/or fingerprint).
2) Is it possible to adjust the brightness of the flashlight when used as a flashlight and without affect the brightness when used with the camera?
Thanks!

First of, you do not need to unlock your phone to turn on the flashlight. You can pull down the notification screen even when the phone is locked. to turn on the flash light.
I do not think, you can adjust the brightness of the flashlight without using a third party app. Try Flashlight app.

You can use the wake gestures app. I have it set up so swiping right turns the flashlight on. Works without the screen being on as well.

Is it the wake on gesture app in the store by team.fluxion?
Not what you were asking for, but I use power button flashlight. 3 pushes of the power button turns the flashlight on.
You can also pay for the additional option if you want to turn the flashlight off using 3 presses. Otherwise you have to tap the app to turn the light off.
The flashlight 3 presses are more of a dash dash dash press, slower presses with a short pause between the presses. Whereas the camera 2 button presses are like a dot dot action (rapid presses one after the other Like Morse code).

Suppose Take the App Called Moon Plus Reader. It's a Text Reader for Android and it always opens in immersive mode I.e the taskbar at the bottom gets auto hidden. We can get it to show itself by Swiping up from the fingerprint sensor. But after the Nougat Update, the feature is seemed to be disabled. Is the feature entirely removed or can it be enabled from any setting?
I remember when I first got the G4 Plus , running Android 6.0, a tap on the fingerprint scanner revealed the on screen navigation buttons, similar to a swipe gesture from the edge of the screen, while in immersive mode. Is there a way to enable it manually?
Hi,
I know in the past there was an easy interface to allow you to choose per app whether or not to hide the navigation bar (home touch buttons).
Does anyone know if there is an easy way to always keep the navigation bar and status bar and to never have it go into immersive mode? With the taller screen, I'd like to give that a shot for a while.
There is a thread here about per app immersive mode: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g6/help/hiding-home-button-lg-g6-t3583536
I'm looking for a 'disable' immersive mode completely type of functionality.
Thanks for any assistance.
