So I just set up nova, ive used it for nearly every phone. My question is, how can I get the double tap screen on and off back? The original LGG3 launcher has that and ive grown accustomed to it. Ive looked in activities and tried a couple different things like monitor activity, but that just disabled the monitor to where I needed to pull the battery. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Install an app called "screen off and lock." Then you'll be able to set the double tap gesture to "screen off" in Nova's settings.
I've used that app and it works great. If you already use greenify you can goto gestures in Nova and select doubletap and the choose greenify screen off/hibernate shortcut or use that screen off app.
Thanks guys, the app worked great
If you dont want to install and app you can double tap on the notification bar
I actually ended up deleting the app and using greenify
I haven't tried on Nova yet, but using Google Now Launcher double tab on lock screen still works. Double tab the status bar on the homescreen locks the device.
Try double tapping the status bar?
Just ran across Floatify in the Playstore: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.floatify
Seems to work on the lockscreen the way Android Marshmallow notifications should work! I disabled the heads up setting in the app, but in my 5 minutes of playing with it, the lockscreen works GREAT! You can keep your ZTE lockscreen, the notifications just display on top of it and you can swipe them away. You do disable the stock notifications, but this has worked fine in my email and text test as well as a few Dropbox notifications.
It lets you expand the notifications too.
Only down side I've seen so far, you need the "pro" version ($1.49) to get the notifications to stack on top of each other.....Otherwise, with the free version it still works....But the newest one is on top, when you swipe it away there is one under it....so if you get 6 notifications, to see the first one you'll need to swipe away all the others on top. I've already purchased the "pro" version, otherwise I'd test that setting out to make sure I'm correct in telling you this?
But all's I know, I'm really happy with this $1.49 app!
Nice find! How well does it handle music playback notifications?
does it work with the fingerprint scanner?

Well, when I first tried it, it didn't show anything... Then when I was about to post this, I checked again and it shows up just like a standard notification (along with the others).
I'm using Shuttle+ and the top one is the music notification. No controls, just "what's playing".
Lol.....It even reminds me that my wife took the Kohl's card last month and used it (busted).
Best solution I've seen so far.

It's a flashable .zip font called "ChinaCat". You have to be rooted to use it, since it flashed via TWRP.
Yes, amazing. I hated that bell, now it's six feet under.
I just wanted to provide a different option for anybody who wants the finger print scanner + album art to work.
Hi Locker.
Main benefits: full album art with the audio controls and works with finger print scanner.
The main downfall is if you want to do the finger print scanner, you have to have ZTE's stock lock screen enabled which means you'll have two lock screens.
It works two different ways.
1. If you press the power button, it'll bring up the ZTE lock screen with the bell. If you have your lock screen set at swipe, it'll then go to the Hi Locker lock screen which will display notifications. If you press the button, you can unlock by using the finger print scanner twice. So, ultimately, using the power button and swiping immediately will bring you to the next screen and that will have all your notifications including album art taking over the wall paper and audio controls.
2. If you use the finger print scanner, it'll bypass the ZTE lock screen and go straight to the Hi Locker screen. Now you'll be able to function with all the other above. You can then use the finger print scanner a second time and you'll completely unlock the phone.
It's a weird way but this was the best way to get the finger print scanner and album art going at the same time... until ZTE releases something.

Great!
tele_jas, Thanks for sharing this one! I think it's much better than having a second lockscreen. I left my native notifications turned on,but just turned on the "Show on the lock screen" option (to kill the bell). Then, inside Floatify's settings, under Heads-up, then under "When", I disable "On Notification", but left "On Lockscreen" set to All Notifications. So I have Floatify only on top the lockscreen, and the default system notifications everywhere else.
Great find!
Thanks for this thread, love this app it's a massive improvement to the Axon 7.

Looks very promising.
Just bought it.
Just one question how disable the bell icon being on lock screen or it's not possible to all time hide it?
Edit: I don't know but find it very complicated through setting.
Too many settings and similar option
Missing simplicity from the app.

Just uninstalled and got refund.
Sorry I find the app too messy and complicated with dozens of similar option and settings.
Prefer next lock screen as lock screen replacement and I'm using glimpse notification to wake up screen on notification alert and double tap to sleep from lock screen.
Or just wait if being stock until ZTE make the bell optional witch not being late until released via software update.

How disable not interact badly on lock screen when pull down notification while playing music??
Also interact badly with player pro widget on notification center when pull down while playing music.
I don't know how disable music player widget on floatify.
Even disable player pro widget on player pro it continues to show both player pro and floating app music player widget together on Notification Center.

Sorry to those not happy with it and are asking me questions on how to use it?..... I liked it and found it useful and posted the link. I don't really know much of, or any of the technical stuff about it, I just set it up and left it alone and haven't touched it since day one. No, it's not perfect and not as useful as real stock android notifications, but I still like it MUCH better than the "bell".
I do know when you "start the app", you'll get the option to disable the stock android notifications (the three choice menu). You want to choose to not show any notifications and this will disable the "bell". There is someone on here uses it a slightly different way and left instructions on how they used it.
[APP] PaceOn v5.4 - Keep Pace/Stratos screen on, Lock Screen, Quick Switches & more
PaceOn v5.4
{
"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",

}
Sometimes, I just want my Aamzfit Pace to stay awake a bit longer, so I make this app.
PaceOn is designed specifically for Amazfit Pace to keep its screen on and unlocked as long as I want. It also works on Amazfit Stratos.
Surely, keeping the screen on affects the device's battery, but for whatever reason you may want it.
For me, it's quite useful when transferring files via wifi, needing to see some app screen details for a period of time or just always showing off that beautiful watchface.
This is the first app of my Pace(X) series (On, Off, Up & Down).
Disclaimer:
I am not responsible for any bad things caused by using this app, and blah, blah, blah.
Instruction:
Just sideload the app. Root is not required.
This can be done using ADB.
Here is how.
To uninstall:
adb uninstall com.anox.paceon
Features:
On/Off = PaceOn service keeping the watch awake and unlocked
The service can be automatically turned off on a selectable schedule.
Dim = Allow the screen to dim
Launcher = Launcher Service
Once activated, a small triangle area at the bottom left of the screen becomes a launcher area. The area is only visible on PaceOn screen, but active on any screen.
- Swipe up from the area (on any screen) launches PaceOn app.
- Double tap toggles PaceOn service on/off without opening the app.
- Swipe right to lock the screen.
- Swipe diagonally (roughly 45 degrees upward to the right) to bring up Quick Switch panel
Please see the last attached image for the instruction. The service will automatically turn on after booting, if the option was previously on before the boot.
Lock screen
The idea here is to have a transparent lock screen to protect the screen on from touches or taps. When this lock screen is on, the watch is still fully awake.
- To activate the lock screen, swipe right on Launcher area.
- To unlock, just double tap anywhere on the lock screen.
Return Home option
This is a workaround to the notification issue (raised by a few people). When receiving a new notification, the notification screen won't automatically be dismissed and another notification won't trigger a vibration. This can only be turned on, when both PaceOn & Launcher services are selected.
When this option is selected, it will have an effect only when the lock screen is on. After activating the lock screen, the watch will return to the home screen (from any screen) in every 30 seconds.
Bear in mind "this is supposed to consume more battery power."
Auto On... = Auto On When Charging option (off by default)
When turned on, PaceOn service is automatically activated when the watch is plugged into a power source, and deactivated when unplugging it. This option always keeps the screen fully on (not dim) to get rid of the system charging animation. This is designed to work only if PaceOn service is NOT already on.
How about a Pace as a desk clock
Quick Switch panel
- Swipe roughly 45 degrees upward to the right from Launcher area to bring up Quick Switch panel which contains:
1) Brightness Seekbar
Quickly set the screen brightness to any value from 0 to 255 or to Auto Mode.
2) Bluetooth switch
Now, the Bluetooth can be turned on/off at will.
3) WiFi switch
Yes, the wifi too can be turned on/off at will.
- To dismiss Quick Switch panel, just tap on the brightness number or swipe the panel away to the right.
These switches work independently of the system settings. They can even turn on when Airplane mode is on.
How about a quick glance to check if your bluetooth/wifi is on (just like your phone Status bar)
CXN svc. = Connection service
The Connection service improves the bluetooth/wifi connection visibility. It lets us know when bluetooth/wifi is connected/disconnected with a toast message and vibration (only vibration, when screen off). It also tells us what device/AP the watch is connected to/disconnected from.
The service will automatically turn on after booting, if the option was previously on before the boot.
Now, we always know what the bluetooth/wifi on our watch is up to.
Usage:
To enable PaceOn service (to keep the screen awake and unlocked)
- Open the app
- Tick []On/Off (Optionally, tick []Dim)
- To activate Launcher service, tick []Launcher
- Click OK. PaceOn service will start with a confirmation message.
- The app will then be put into the background.
- Then, do whatever you want. The screen will stay unlocked as long as PaceOn service is active.
While PaceOn service is active, the watch can be forced to sleep by pressing the power button from Home screen. Waking up the watch will also reactivate PaceOn service.
To turn PaceOn service off
If Launcher service is active, just Double tap on Launcher area.
If not, Open the app, de-select []On/Off and click OK. PaceOn service will stop with a confirmation message and the app exits.
To turn Launcher service on/off
- Open the app, toggle []Launcher and click OK. Launcher service will start/stop and the app exits.
Note:
- While the app's UI is in the foreground, the screen stays on.
- The app (any app for that matter) can be killed by Android system if the resources are needed. If killed, the "Keep Screen Unlocked" effect will also be lost.
- The app is free for personal use.

PaceOn now has many options, but I still want to have only one single screen, without scrolling. So, buttons are used to maximise the space. A button represents a service, while a checkbox represents an option in a service. The bottom part of the screen also has a new design.
Auto On When Charging option added (off by default)
When turned on, PaceOn service is automatically activated when the watch is plugged into a power source, and deactivated when unplugging it. This option always keeps the screen fully on (not dim) to get rid of the system charging animation.
How about a Pace as a desk clock

When turning on PaceOn service, an off schedule can be selected to automatically turn off the service. The default is to turn it on forever.
Version 5.4
Settings now saved to the storage
All settings are saved to the storage before closing so that when the app opens the next time, all settings will be restored. This is so even after booting.
Auto-start after boot service changed
Launcher and CXN services each will automatically turn on after booting, if they were previously on before the boot.
Better handling of app closing
When the app is closed by clicking the OK button or pressing the Power button or swiping the app UI to the right, all settings are applied and saved to the storage.
Workaround to the issue of app UI appearing briefly when a notification arrives while charging
This issue can happen to any 3rd party app. It's kind of annoying to see. So, this version tries to avoid that.
If you like my work & want to buy me a cup of coffee or beer, I've just added a Paypal donation email to my profile.

Thank you for your feedback.
I've been testing the app for a few days without any vibration issues. When the screen is kept on by the app, my usual apps such as Walk, Run, Alarm, Timer and notifications from phone vibrate normally.
Could you please explain a bit more on the vibration issue you have? Some specific app doesn't vibrate? Thanks.
i'm running a zuk z2 with Nougat on it, 7.1.2, and lost vibration with Gmail, whatsapp and facebook messenger applications.
update: noticed that there's no vibration on Tapatalk as well.

OK, I think I know what happens here.
With or without this app,
When a notification (from any app) is received, Amazfit Pace vibrates only in one of these cases:
1) the screen is locked OR
2) you are NOT on the notification screen.
So, while the screen is kept on (but unlocked) by the app, the device vibrates if you are NOT on the notification screen.
Say you're on the home screen (watchface). Then, a notification is received, the device will vibrate and show the notification. Now, you're on the notification screen, and you won't be taken back to the home screen as there is no screen timeout. If you don't manually navigate from the notification screen to another screen, another notification will not trigger a vibration.
I hope my explanation makes sense, and I don't think I can do anything with the app to improve this.
got it!
What did you use for the app to keep the whatch on?
I started with a GolfCaddy app and because the watch sleeps after a few seconds I don't get the gps satellites.
Thank a lot
wow! it's useful for me Thank you very much for your creation. :laugh::laugh:

A big thank you ! As a paramedic it will be very useful to check pulse (seconds), some suggestions to preserve battery :
- Implement an "HD Mode"/On motion as in the new watchface (unlock the screen/activate on wrist motion / background light on maybe ?)
- add an on/off widget on the launcher ? (Don't know if huami allows it) ?
- Lock the screen (unlock with a double tap) ?
Thanks again ! Really great addition to the watch !

I was talking about to behaviour of "Night Run" watchface (in pacefied and in 1.3.4f) : when locked, a wrist motion (motion when you watch the...watch) trigger the full color / resolution / seconds hand version of the watchface
With your app you could be able to implement that behaviour for every watchface ! An it will be very good for battery life (don't you want full version of a watchface when you see it ? not when you're watching anything else ?)
If we had tasker on mips, that's what I would try : (I'm not a developer unfortunately)
- Detect wrist motion -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
Or
- detect "backlight on" or backlight level > 0 (triggered by motion wrist if enabled in settings) -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
As a last suggestion, a simple configurable timer in seconds could be great (my case : every time I unlock I would like to see the seconds hand / NUM for a minute, time for me to check manually a heart rate / ventilatory rate of my patient then autolock), a sort of programmable autorelock !
For the lockscreen, can't you place an invisible overlay after returning on the watchface which could intercept touch, then capture only double tap as an event to disable that overlay ?
Again, Very useful, big thank ! Keep up !

I'm on 1.3.4f, there is Activate on Wrist option. When on, it just turns on the backlight for a few seconds, but doesn't wake the watch. So, you won't see the second hand. And, that works the same for all watchfaces.

I do see the importance of the watchface for you, but PaceOn is implemented to work universally with any app. What you can do now with PaceOn v1.0 is this:
- Open the app, activate "Screen On"
- Press Home (power) button to go Home,then press again to put the watch to sleep
- Whenever you need to take a heart rate reading, just wake the watch, After done, just put the watch back to sleep
I don't think the app consumes that much battery when the watch is asleep, though I've not actually measured it.
If we had tasker on mips, that's what I would try : (I'm not a developer unfortunately)
- Detect wrist motion -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock
Or
- detect "backlight on" or backlight level > 0 (triggered by motion wrist if enabled in settings) -> autounlock the watch for a programmed time -> relock

Yeah, my wish too.
Another thing is I have no idea what the system allows 3rd party apps do when the watch is asleep.
As a last suggestion, a simple configurable timer in seconds could be great (my case : every time I unlock I would like to see the seconds hand / NUM for a minute, time for me to check manually a heart rate / ventilatory rate of my patient then autolock), a sort of programmable autorelock !

That'd be the idea, but like I mentioned this is a custom android on which I see some simple android functions don't even work. What I'm doing here is mostly guesswork, just trial & error.
Thanks for the comments. We'll see how this goes.
V1.5 is up.
Version 1.5 is up (OP updated)
Changelog:
UI changes
- Theme change
- Some wording changes (hopefully clearer)
- New icon
Toast notifications added
- Confirmed messages when starting/stopping the PaceOn service
Internal Improvement
- Better app instance handling
- More persistent, less likely to be killed by system
- Lower resource usage
- Optimised and smaller apk
Please note that APK installer doesn't seem to support this optimised apk (attached to OP), though it can be installed via adb as usual. In case that you already have PaceOn on your watch, the command will be "adb install -r anox.PaceOn.v1.5.apk"
The next version will include some new functionality.
thanks for this app....i really like it since it make easier to check anything without double tap or unlock via button.
anyway i find some issues :
the activate on wrist are not working if PaceOn are active
notification wont "minimize" if PaceOn are active
Baterry drain (but this is acceptable i think since the watch are always "on" without baterry saving mode.
if you could fix it would really great ( if not it's still great app )
but overall are superB app, really appreciate it.
information :
Im using English rom 1.3.4f
cheers

The system's activate on wrist works only when the watch is asleep. When PaceOn is active, the watch is awake. I may look into this when implementing a lockscreen for PaceOn.
notification wont "minimize" if PaceOn are active

Right. It's the same reason. When PaceOn is active, the watch stays awake. So, the notification screen will stay on after receiving the notification. It has been discussed in post#6 . Once PaceOn has its own lockscreen, I'll try to improve this.
Baterry drain (but this is acceptable i think since the watch are always "on" without baterry saving mode.

PaceOn itself doesn't drain the battery (much), it's the screen on and the running apps while the watch is awake. When the watch is asleep, I find the battery consumed by PaceOn negligible. Everyone else who has measured the battery consumption may share their experience.
Thanks for the comments & stay tuned for the future versions.
BTW, another version is coming up tomorrow.
