I use the Tilt.
I reuploaded it, now there shouldnt be Scroll Bars Anymore
Just so I'm clear, what kind of help are you asking for at this stage? I can help test the product but I haven't done any mobile development.
If you haven't done developement just Keep trying it and report bugs! If you have special wishes or ideas for the GUI you are welcome
Im just programming the Launcher Part
All I'm after is an app that uses motion for unlocking. In the purest form it can be like the iPhone unlocker where there's a bar to slide but, unlike S2SU, the bar should be positionable and it shouldn't write over anything else on the screen. That means if you have something like SpB Mobile Shell, when your phone is locked it shows the Now screen. I would want to see the Now screen still. Here's a mockup:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
More advanced features can be things like custom-defined motions for unlocking including no visual hints which in effect will function like a password. As for functionality outside of unlocking...it doesn't really interest me because so many other applications already do that. Is there something you need tested now? When I ran it, it didn't seem like it was at that stage yet.

IMHO, "Invisible Lock Screen" and "Gesture to Unlock" are 2 distinct challenges. I agree it would be cool to combine the 2. But you may need to prioritize those 2 efforts.
My personal opinion would be to implement a small, very efficient gesture recognition module that generates an event based on the a successful gesture match. It would be like "Gesture 2 Action". Then others like A_C could perhaps integrate or make it an option for S2U2. With G2A, then again, it could be used to do anything - launch an app, set an alarm, disable bluetooth, etc...
The invisible lock screen would be nice also, but I think it presents entirely different challenges.
I will reupload Preview B in some minutes, there you will be able to Launch programs by Gestures
You can configurate it in a text file
Scilor, aren't there already apps that launch programs via gesture? Touch Commander is one. I'm sure there are more. What are your development priorities?

But those are usually simple one-directional gestures. Not more complex ones.

I guess what I'm after is what's not available now. To start, a very simple low-impact unlock slider that doesn't override the visible screen, and to finish a custom-motion unlocker with option to hide the visible hint i.e. slider track.

That's true. If the primary purpose of this new app will be to one-up Touch Commander with complex gestures, I guess that would be something new.
I just Uploaded the new Version!
now you can launch programs with it (configuratible in the gestures.cfg)
interesting app, works on my touch. Thanks!
I just uploaded a new Version Alpha 0.0.1
I little improved the gesture recognition and made it a littel bit Skinnable
Iam Primary working on a Launcher, because i dont' know how to block buttons, if iam able to do this, i will implent the Locking function
interesting project but in future it should be possible to make gestures in any app!

What is WkTASK?
WkTASK shares features of both Task Manager and Program Launcher for Windows Mobile. You can switch all running programs smoothly like desktop Windows, and launch applications easily. Not only stylus operation but also key operation is available. Although the look & feel closely matches the theme color and make the 3D gradation, its CPU and memory usage are low.
Features
Task-list
Using the upper bar, you can watch, switch, close and force termination running programs.
To exclude a task from the list, tap&hold it and select 'Hide'.
X button
Using the X button, you can use some actions as follows:
Tap: really close
Tap&Hold: show context menu
Drag: some gestures (To minimize, drag toward down. To show Today, drag toward left.)
Program Launcher
Using key or tap, You can launch some applications, functions and contacts(phone call or e-mail).
Key operation
To shift the Key operation mode, double-execute WkTask.exe or WkTaskCmd.exe(recommended because of smaller size). Some start options are available too.
Brightness/Volume controller
You can control them in real time with key or tap.
Other functions rotation, suspend, reboot, network connection, etc.
Preferences
To customize, it has a great deal of parameters. Enjoy your self!
FAQ
Q. I want to move and resize a Task-list.
A. To move and resize it, tap&drag the edge or adjust values in Preference->General1->Offsets.
Q. I cannot see any directories except "My Documents" to configure the skins and launcher.
A. It is a bad culture of Window Mobile and Pocket PC. To see all directories, install FileDialogChanger and gsgetfile for international(direct link).
Q. I would like to translate WkTASK to my native language. / The translation is a bit off.
A. Thank you for your help. I will create a MUI file from your mapping table and upload to this site. Please send me the table which format is as follows:
[English Text 1] [TAB] [Translated Text 1]
[English Text 2] [TAB] [Translated Text 2]

Hey,
Great software. Two things though. First, when activated by vertical drag the launcher shows but hides immediately after lifting the stylus to tap an application. Second, is there a way to adjust the hight of the task bar? It leaves a few pixels from the top and bottom and when I click the start menu white shadow shows behind the bar.
Thanks,
dEM
Anyone..?
i've been using WkTask for about a week.
If i use the launcher it stays ther so i can tap as many boxes as i want. Its not a feature i use though so have not loaded any apps into it.
dont think you can resize the task bar, but that said i have not noticed any white lines. (apart fromthe battary life indicator cross the top)

Stupid me! Thanx!
In my Taskbar I have ActiveSync listed and one other executable which I would like to hide because if they are active all the time, there isn't much point in having them displayed (when I terminate both of them, they come straight back).
What is the path to disable AS from the taskmanager as it does not show up when I look for it from within WkTask?
Also, I presume the executable is TF3D as when I terminate that, TF3D closes and restarts. Anyone know how to hide that executable if it TF3D?
Regards

Hold your stylus on the app you want to hide and after a second a menu pops up where you can choose to always hide it. There is an option in the preferences 1st page to 'always show' so that must be switched off as well.
The TF3D app is named 'Start', repeat the above for it too.
Holding the stylus on the close button also beings up a menu which includes the option of hiding.
Excellent, thanks, worked a treat.

Wow, Great! How/where is the password stored?
Thanks T! I'm with the flash thing now .

The default password is the top left dot (just click on it). Once you have setted your own pattern (you can do that by tap&hold and then select change pattern) it's stored on a file called lockcode.txt in the app folder.
Ohhh! Looks amazing, installing ASAP !
EDIT: First thoughts:
WOW! This app is amazing, especially for the first beta. Honestly, I'd use this as is with no changes. I think I'm going to skin it later this weekend to see how it looks. Therer were a few things I noticed however.
If you enter the wrong pattern, "again" is spelled "aggain".
The load time took about 5-6 seconds on my touch.
That was really all that I noticed with it. Works very smooth and and I really like the transparent affect on it!
Just a few suggestions:
Please keep it simple like it is, too much extra will just slow it down.
The option to overlap existing lines in the pattern would give some extra security.
Making it full screen with an extra row of dots.
Sorry to sound like a pain, but I really like this development and would like to see this grow a lot.
Again, excellent work, keep it up !
Omgawd. Alfonso. I love you. You always come out with the things i need at exactly the right time I was looking for something like the iPhone S2U. I know A_C almost perfected it, but i really wanted a passcode thing. I'm going to double lock my phone now, Throttle Lock under my S2U2.
i think maybe it would be faster if the background was all black. i think transparency slows it down...
anyways, this is amazing.
EDIT: nevermind black background looks ugly.
WOW. Dude, you've done it again, this is ground breaking stuff.
I can;t fault it apart from the slow loading times. It's awesome
Also, is there anyway you can allow diagonals from one to the other? If you see what I mean?
Nice work!
Thanks, coooooool app. T M Z
Hi,
It looks awesome! Can anyone report on the effect on battery life?
Battery Life: ive only been using for about an hour and nothing bad. plus it only opens when you wake up your deivce so its not ALWAYS running.
I'm skinning it as we speak!
Very nice work APBilbo. Thank You. I have been looking for something like this for a while now. S2U2 is just to overloaded for my liking. It didn't seem to work right at first after I set the pattern, so I soft reset and now it works flawless on my Sprint Touch stock 6.1 ROM. Again Thank You, BOO
One Word... "Fabulous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Loving it.. lookin forward to the creativity to continue..
Bien Hecho!
I've been looking for an Android lock app ever since i saw the video preview of googles android OS.. what ive been looking for
great work!
Are you planning on adding features like S2U2? I asked A_C to add the patter feature to his unlock and he would not so I'm hoping you add the features he has so we can all have the best of everything.
Having an option to make the pattern "pads" invisible would allow the features from S2U2 can be added onscreen
so i made a "skin" for this.

Thank's everybody for the feedback!!
As i fas as I see there's no problems other than the speed thing... I'll try to speed it up a little bit. I can't promiss anything though.
About where will the throttle development go I don't plan to make it very complex. May be in the future I'll add:
- Full screen support.
- Some icon notifications for missed calls, new sms, new mail.
Understand that this is mostly a locking app to secure your device. Any info given on it will be public, so it will not show anything like next appointment, last called id, etc.... Though you're able to receive calls while the device is locked.
Thanks!!!
(2) I’ve been experimenting with new UI interfaces, the latest engine and API I’ve developed aims on blending in with Manila. You can see it in the new beta of nueLight3, which aims to replicate the look and feel of the HTC CommManager – It supports both orientations and uses the same style resources as the HTC comm manager, allowing easy porting of existing skins – it now also has the advantage of being able to use the same resources under multiple resolutions (automatic stretching). Hopefully this allows Windows Mobile to be a little more attractive in the future…. you can download a preview version here (note only the CAB is available right now). As usual, please avoid direct linking and mirroring. It uses the HTCCamera1.dll interface now, so it should be compatible with all HTC devices with flash. In addition, the morse code transmit rates are now calculated automatically based on desired WPM, using the (dit_time = 1200/WPM) “PARIS” method.

Other than the High Beam issue (flashes), it's working looks nice and works great.
Just one question - NET 3.5 required? I only ask because just like with your Power/Backlight CPL item, this crashes once I exit (with the "report this error to MS" crash).
I have NET2 and 3.5 (2 is default)

Thats a pitty.
An idea... could you make the application perform the flashes on the screen (fullscreen white light) for devices that do not have flash??
That will make everyone happy
pretty cool application, but my light wont go off, somehow it allows me to exit the program and wont turn the light off for anything, i have to restart my phone to turn it off, the camera app wont come up either. If you could fix this lil bug id use this over the htorch
will this run on any wm device? and version?
BUG - Exit app at instruction screen will cause LED to stay on
As far as the program exit issue: I will try to repeat it and gather/note any details reported or take a screenshot (generally happens upon exit, but hasn't happened since the first time using the app).
I did notice a bug, though (if it's a bug/feature, not sure):
1: Start the application
2: When presented with the notice about sliding finger up to bring up the menu, click the [X] to close it (must set HTC Task Manager to close app when clicking [X])
The LED will now stay on, and no other app will be able to control it (or, in some cases, even start, such as nueLight or hTorch).

really cool aaps,...
any qvga version?
Dude! I love this. You ought to contact D-MAN666 and see if it is possible to integrate this into TF3D!
agreeee,.
not bad.
how ever highbeam makes my x1's bright light flash instead of staying on.
also since the rez on my x1 is wvga after going into the about screen and then back the bottom of the background is no longer shown.
im guessing the background can be fixed with a theme edit. but any clues or ideas about highbeam flashing instead of staying on would be cool. unless its supposed to flash.

X7510 doesn't take to nueLight
During the installation a warning about the software being developed for an older version of WM appears.
Then it just wouldn't start.
Works great, wondering if you might release a new version. If you do could you just make in program files and not in its own folder.
would you make it compatible with samsung omnia ?
Awesome tool i've been using it for quite a while now. I love the morse-code option.
I have to agree with moullas and wanwarlock to add a feature for none HW flash device's to make it a complete and ultimate flashlite app.
ZLaunchy - version 0.2
This is still an early beta, so some things might not work
ZLaunchy was written mainly for those who like the way Windows Mobile dialer allows searching for contacts in a T9-like way - so that finding Adam means choosing 2326 in the phone application. ZLaunchy uses the same idea to run programs on your device. What it does is gives you a dialer keypad and when you type in a series of digits, it searches for all programs that match - for example to start Internet Explorer, start typing 4683 - Internet Explorer and Internet Sharing should show up in the result list.
Application performs a search using all items in the Start Menu. It also skips showing application icons, which causes it to work faster than usual application launchers. This makes ZLaunchy a perfect candidate for an application that's bound to a hardware key (using system settings) and have it always handy when you want to find an application quickly.
In order to search for a particular text as beginning of words, type the specified digits - for example 4683 to find Internet explorer. In order to search for specified letter(s) not only at beginning of words, add "1" at the end - for example 4681 will find PowerPoint Mobile.

Download - QVGA, WVGA, VGA, WVGA:
http://www.endorser.org/wm/zlaunchy
Change history for version 0.2
* Added support for square QVGA (240x240 and 320x320) devices
* Support for entering digits or text using hardware keyboard
* Configuration panel - vibration feedback, additional search location
* Added possibility of searching My Documents and one additional directory (multiple directories coming soon)
* Searching for strings not only at beginning of words (by appending 1 at the end)
* Optionally run on startup - starts and hides ZLaunchy in the background
* Minor bugfixes
Plans for future releases
* More configuration options
* Configurable, easily switchable "profiles" - i.e. "start menu", my documents, custom directories
* Ability to search in settings items - not sure on how to list items in there from C#
* Multi-language support - both translations and better locale-specific searching (only supports English and Polish nicely for now)
* Support for theming (result list and buttons separately)
Very cool... I don't think I'll need it but I like the idea. Nice work.
thanks for the app anyway, BUT...
you should have mentioned that this app was for VGA only...
you could have saved an install and an uninstall for me dude!

This shouldn't be VGA only. That's why it's still 0.1 - not quite final yet.
EDIT: Fixed - some screw-up in the CAB creation. Now there's a separate QVGA/VGA installer that works fine on both.
@dredd - care to retry?
Great concept seriously !
Oh my god that program is just AWESOME.
That's the thing i missed all the time on my WiMo-phone. On my computer, i'm only starting programs with launchy, it's much more faster than browsing a start-menu or something like that.
If you need help, ask me. I'm quite experienced with photoshop and also can help you with translations (german).
A version with a full QWERTY-keyboard (that covers 3/4 of the screen) would be great too.
Great idea! Wonder if I can use it like filemanager too? I'm always searching for a cab on my storage card. This is brilliant!..
I'll assign it to a button for quick launch.
Thanks for sharing..
Works great! Smooth, fast , Vibration feedback, finger scrolling! Very smart!
Thankyou very cool app anyway to turn off haptic feedback? If not could you implement for future release
Great stuff!
How about options to search for other file type by name? Photos, docs, etc? \
Might make it even more powerful.
As I sad, this is great!
wow it's really fast. thanks. maybe an option to remove the vibration in the next release?
interesting concept! going to try right now...

That's the thing i missed all the time on my WiMo-phone. On my computer, i'm only starting programs with launchy, it's much more faster than browsing a start-menu or something like that.
If you need help, ask me. I'm quite experienced with photoshop and also can help you with translations (german).
A version with a full QWERTY-keyboard (that covers 3/4 of the screen) would be great too.

As for help, if you want to make a better theme (I suck at graphics), PM me. We can work it out. As for translations, there are only 2 texts for now, but when I add in the configuration panel, then I would use your help.

Great idea! Wonder if I can use it like filemanager too? I'm always searching for a cab on my storage card. This is brilliant!..
I'll assign it to a button for quick launch.
Thanks for sharing..

Yeah, that's part of the TODO list. Engine is quite generic, so adding in My Documents or custom folder (i.e. *.cab in \Storage Card\installs) is mainly configuration issue. That's for v0.2 or a bit later.

Yes, one of the first things that needs to get done - a configuration panel.

Then you should install VGA one - although the page now clearly states it.
Very nice and useful app for me. Thank you very much!
Two quick concepts (VGA, without keyboard), one with icons and one without. The blue color indicates that this is the selected item.
The three results are chosen at random, they are only placeholders to see what it will look like
If you need these resources for a future release, call me.
gotta try this!! I've been looking for this functionality for so long!!!! thanks amigo!!!!
doesn't work on my i-mate ultimate 8150!yellow and white screen
[AOSP/CM/HTC][LP-MM] Gesture Unlock with Custom Shortcuts
This Xposed module enables gesture unlock for Lollipop and Marshmallow devices . The gesture unlock is highly customizable, from changing colours to visibility, error messages, background, etc. You can even hide the emergency button.
What's more, you can use gestures to directly open specific shortcuts from the lockscreen, for example use U to unlock, W to open WhatsApp, M for email, etc. These shortcuts don't have to be just apps, they can be anything on your device, like Direct Dial, open a specific Contact, etc.
The module is pretty self explanatory, and will prompt you to set a pattern on the lock screen, because that is what it replaces. Other than that, there are no specific instructions to use it.
The only caveats are because of the way Xposed works.
A. Your gestures will be visible to any one or any app on your device. No root required.
B. You need root to restart the keyguard after changing the gesture full screen option. It is not mandatory, you could manually reboot if you require. All other changes will be reflect automatically, but not this one.
Download : http://repo.xposed.info/module/me.rijul.gestureunlock
Source code : https://github.com/Rijul-Ahuja/GestureUnlock/
Compatibility :
I personally test on CM13, and I will support CM12.0, CM12.1, AOSP 5.x and 6.0.x and derivatives. HTC support is limited unless I find a tester. Support for other OEM ROMs is absent beyond basic working functionality.

FAQ
My ROM already has gesture unlock, how is this better?
The module has a lot of customization options, like, gesture colours, gesture visibility, text visibility, show gesture correct or incorrect, show or hide emergency button and text, and even full screen gesture. You even launch custom shortcuts directly from the lock screen.
Does this work with screen off?
No, that is device specific and I can't implement it without having a device in hand, and even then, it is beyond my abilities.
Module does not work at all
Give me logcat, SystemUI.apk or any other lockscreen.apk which your device uses, I will try to implement it.
Some features, particularly emergency button related, do not work
Give me logcat, SystemUI.apk or any other lockscreen.apk which your device uses, I will try to fix it, but if it gets too difficult to manage because of your OEM ROM, it will not be done.
I am stuck on the lock screen, please help!
Long press the gesture view 3 times and draw a gesture. Your stock pattern will be restored.

Works on some HTC, Xperia and TouchWiz devices and not all features work properly.

working well, thanks so much
Hi again. I disabled the knock code module as you said and it worked. However, i noticed that there's something wrong with the gesture entry. I feel like it's not working as it should. Sometimes the gesture gets recognised from the first attempt sometimes it requires multiple attempts. I don't know if it's something from my side but the gesture entry feels so laggy and not working properly.
Great work. One thing, it just feels a little slow.

Try reducing the minimum prediction score? I didn't face this at all. A little more information will do good.

What feels slow? Some things may lag because of the automatic preference reloader, try a reboot?

I mean its slow as compared to knock code, it takes a bit more time to unlock, haven't tried reboot just did a keyguard restart. I'll try doing a reboot.

Turn off show gesture correct?
I think there is a lag when using custom shortcuts to unlock, but not when unlocking normally. Is that what you're talking about @Tyaginator?
EDIT : Cannot reproduce any longer after reboot it seems?
Now THIS is what I was looking for :3

No i was talking about normal unlock only, it's just minor. Currently i'm back to knock code coz I've kinda habit of that and maybe i feel it slow coz i'm too quick in unlocking via knock code. I'll keep on checking further updates.

Thank you so much for creating this module!
I have waited too long for this! ?
The full screen gesture does not work for me. I tried a full reboot instead of just restarting the keyguard but still no luck. Also, there is a little "t" missing in "Directly show gesture entry" in the "Gesture Settings" section.
