* This is an Xposed module. You MUST have Xposed Framework installed. Otherwise this app WILL NOT FUNCTION.. You can download Xposed here: http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer
With Quick Access, you can allow your selected apps to be launched over the lockscreen without unlocking your device. You can also swipe up from the on-screen home button to launch Google Now or launch applications from lockscreen widgets without unlocking your phone . For example, allow your camera, music, and to-do list applications to be launched over the lockscreen to access them in an instant. Allow your friends to browse your music library without fully unlocking your device, quickly add a task to your to-do list; or never miss that photo opportunity; with Quick Access the possibilities are limitless!
In addition, Quick Access also enables you to expand your status bar in secure lockscreen and also show all widgets (instead of only lockscreen widgets) in lockscreen widget picker
Computer Mode: This allows you to let the timer keep going, even when the screen is off. This means that you can use EyeRelax to limit your time on the computer, television, or whatever other device you own, without using battery to keep the screen on and the timer running!
Notes:
- To launch applications from DashClock widget, please select DashClock in Quick Access. Or more specifically the activity: com.google.android.apps.dashclock.WidgetClickProxyActivity.
- To launch Google Now by swiping up from the on-screen home button while in the lockscreen, please select Google Now in Quick Access, or more specifically the activities: com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.SearchActivity AND com.google.android.velvet.ui.VelvetActivity.
- This application does not actually launch the applications (yet), it just allows them to be launch (via other methods) over the lockscreen. A good application to do that is DashClock.

Yes it should work with all stock Android lockscreens.
experiencing what I believe is a bug:
I had three apps check to allow quick access, I rebooted, and now when I go back into QA they are all unchecked, and I can no longer check any other apps due to the 3 app restriction.
Sry but i don't really understand how it works. I tried it with some apps. Can someone post a example pic?

I'll give an example. If you select your music application in Quick Access, you don't have to unlock your lockscreen to view that app. If you launch your music app and turn your screen off and on again, normally you'll have to unlock the lockscreen to access your music app, but with QA the music app will be displayed over the lockscreen so it's the first thing you see when you turn your screen on.
Another example with lockscreen widgets. If you have a google now widget on your lockscreen and click on it, normally you'll have to unlock first; with QA google now will be displayed over the lockscreen.
I have the examples make sense.
Ahh know i understand, thx!
Have trouble with this. I select the apps in QA, reboot, and nothing on my lockscreen.
Any suggestions?

If your Downloads page is set to sort by status, it's right there in alphabetical order. If it's sorted by last update, it's the fifth listed. If it's sorted by creation date, it's the first one at the top of the page. And this is ignoring the fact that Xposed has a search function.
Quick Access (v. 1.3) crashes every time I try to launch it.
I'm on a Samsung Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 with stock ROM (4.3).

Sounds like a root issue to me.
FWIW, it's better to just use the reboot option in the power menu anyways. The reboot option in the power menu allows apps and processes to terminate gracefully whereas when an app reboots it just kills all apps and processes.
interesting concept. so is this the same kind of idea as what google maps does then? where if the screen goes off, and you unlock, it will just wake up to maps? and then if you try to back out, it'll request that you do the passcode?

Hello,
I have a rooted Nexus 5 with stock rom.
I tried to use xposed module "flying android", it works when I start it within apps overview, but not as explained in the video by pressing long the home button. I always get the google now icon.
Could anybody help me please?
Thank you!
Matthias

After installing and enabling Flying Android, you need to launch "FA Toggle" to move the window of the Activity. But this module does NOT provide any way to launch it. So you should prepare other apps to do it such as Gravity Box, SwipePad, etc. In the demo movie, I use Gravity Box to show "FA Toggle" on the Navi-ring (popup when long-pressing the home button).
Oh ok, I understand.
Thank you!

version 0.6.0 causing other apps to FC all over the place. I had to revert to 0.5.6.

Thanks for your message, I fixed the bug at version 0.6.1 already uploaded.
0.6.1 is not working correctly. I can't control the black list: the checkboxes for each app don't work. The "Show only black" checkbox works. But once I open the black list, Flying Android stops working correctly until the next time I reboot my phone: when I fly an app, the fly window turns into Flying Android's app window, and when I unfly, my context has been switched to FA. If I reboot and don't open FA, it works correctly.
In addition, with 0.6.x, I'm now able to fly gReader and my phone app, which I couldn't do before.
Also, AquaMail now flies, and Firefox flies without displaying messed up graphics.

OK, I revert Black list's layout to previous version. And FA Toggle's behavior you said is probably Android's specification. Because FA Toggle is an Activity within Flying Android package, it brings another Activity within same package to top of app's stack if the another Activity is running on background. I think FA Toggle's flag is bad, but I couldn't fix it. Therefore, please exit Flying Android's app by pressing Back key before fly.

My Galaxy Note's phone app still cannot fly. And Firefox works correctly even if flying.
I feel that model-dependent behaviors are increased on version 0.6.x. I also received a report that FA's icon is displayed on the top if FA is enabled on HTC's phone.
With 0.5.6, I couldn't even use my phone app. I don't mean flying it, I mean it wouldn't work and I couldn't answer calls with FA enabled. I'd have to disable FA in Xposed and then reboot to make a call. But now it's ok.
Is it possible to add an option to disable FA without having to reboot? I've seen other Xposed modules that have a disable feature.

Could you answer calls with 0.5.6 if appends the phone app to the black list? It works as FA is disabled if the app is added to the black list.
Now, I uploaded FA version 0.6.3. The new version can change settings without rebooting, requires to recreate Activity instead.

No, I had the phone app and contacts blacklisted, along with the system phone app (blacklisted by default?), but I simply could not use my phone, except in a very limited way. The phone app would pop up a warning dialog, and if I dismissed it, the phone call would disconnect. Plus, I couldn't use the keypad at all.
0.6.3 has a similar problem, and I've discovered that 0.6.2 doesn't work properly with the phone app, either. I've blacklisted the phone app and com.android.phone. I can make a phone call, but the screen goes black and then com.android.phone pops up an FC dialog. The phone call continues, but if I dismiss the dialog, the phone call will cut off. At that point, I see the keypad again and can make a new call, but the same thing happens. Also, there's a persistent notification of an ongoing phone call that I can only clear by rebooting my phone.
The other features of 0.6.3 look good and I haven't seen problems with any other apps yet.
EDIT: I want to suggest a new feature: fly the pull-down notification window. When I open notifications, I can't clear them one-handed because I can't reach the "clear" button.
Thank you for details. I have understood the problem as last. In version 0.6.4, I fixed the bug that cause to FC in call on Galaxy. I tested by Galaxy Note, but I think that other Galaxy devices are same behavior.

The "in call" bug is fixed on my Galaxy S4. So I took the phone app contacts off the blacklist, and they fly correctly. The pin options look good, and option changes take effect after restarting apps that were already running so that we don't have to reboot.
EDIT: suggestion: I only find the pin function useful in a few apps (that do internal scrolling). It's annoying to display the pin for apps that don't need it because I might accidentally touch it. So I suggest a whitelist for the pin function.
@tkgktyk: I got a cycle reboot at sony ericsson ray (os 2.3.4 stock)
It doesn't work well with ezPDF, so I had to blacklist it. When you view this app's recent items list, FA changes the list's coloring to mostly white so that it's hard to read. I guess that has something to do with the "Force set window background" feature, which I have checked. Then, when you fly ezPDF while in the recent items list, it takes two clicks to un-fly it completely. I don't really need to fly this app, but if the bugs associated with ezPDF are fixed, I imagine it will make FA work better with other apps, too.

ezPDF is fixed.
EDIT:
The status bar pin mostly works. But after I fly it once, the next time, it won't fly until I touch the pin two times. The same behavior when I un-fly the status bar without dismissing it. To re-fly it, I have to touch the pin two times.
The pin white list doesn't work. I white list an app, but all apps continue to show the pin. When I return to FA to check the white list, it shows no whitelisted items, so white list selection isn't sticking. I tried rebooting, but that doesn't fix it.
Also, the pin behavior changed as of a couple of versions ago (I forgot to mention it). I want to pin the app Solid Explorer, which is a file browser. Previously, when I pinned it, I could then scroll the file list inside the pinned, flying window. But now when I pin it, I can't scroll the file list: the flying window is just pinned in place until I unpin or unfly it.
@tkgktyk: I will try.
the status bar doesn't fly if it only contains ongoing notifications.
Hello there to you all. As I noted in the title for this thread, I can´t make Now work since I installed Themer. I have a Xperia L and even though I have updated everything it still isn't working. Now starts but no cards are displayed and if you try to search it closes inmediately.
Any suggestions? Is it a known bug?
Thanks in advance.

What device are you using? If it's a OnePlus, then that is from their side. Themer has no relation to altering your Google Now settings, and we haven't had any other issues like this before. We recommend checking apps that you have currently installed as something else may have triggered this problem.
Install UCCW from Play Store.
2. Download this theme and and open it. Now tap on Install Skin button.
3. After you're done with installation, Long press on the Homescreen and select UCCW Widget and select the required widget as indicated by their name.
5. Go to UCCW app, press menu button and make sure the Lock Widgets are 'ON'
Instructions for adding your own app shortcuts in widgets (Hotspots)
If you want to edit or add custom apps in widgets then follow these steps -
1. Open UCCW app and select Hotspot (Lock Widget) from the menu option.
2. Turn "OFF" the Hotspots.
3. Go to desktop and tap the button on widget you want to edit.
4. Select the app you want from the appropriate Hotspots.
5. After you have done editing, make sure you turn "ON" the Hotspot again to apply the changes.

If I hibernate an app like Facebook, its hibernated.. why does it wake back up? how can it wake back up if I dont open it or call it or do anything to share to it etc...Makes no sense.
I am rooted with greenify installed, I hibernate Facebook. Facebook is set to no chat, no notifications, nothing.. it has everything you can disable disabled... yet time after time again of hibernating it, I wake my screen up and do a manual manual hibernation OR i open greenify and Facebook is right there under Apps that will be hibernated soon. i can see the message tha says "Facebook was hibernated when i do a manual hibernation but it always seems to come back on its own.
There are quite a few apps which will wake up Facebook in the background. In particular, any apps which offer to allow you to sign in via a Facebook identity. Even though you might not have signed up via Facebook, those apps will often wake up FB anyway.
If you want to ensure FB doesn't wake up, then you need to install Xposed framework, enable the Greenify module in Xposed and then tick the option on Greenify for Wake-up Tracker and Cut-off. You can then disable having other apps open FB.

Hmm, quite difficult to take a screenshot, as I can't find another app on my device which wakes up other apps as I have already cut off all such apps.
Try the following steps:
1. Open an app of which you know that it wakes up FB.
2. Close this app or go back to your homescreen.
3. Open Greenify and go to the section, where all apps that are greenified are shown (not the section where you can add apps to be greenified!) -> should be start page by default.
4. Now you should see that the app you have opened is running, but also FB, which has been woken up by this app.
5. Long press on the FB entry.
6. Now the scissor symbol should appear in the action bar and you can prevent FB from being woken up.

You seem to have some issue. I see that one app says it was woken up by 'Home' which means that Wake up Tracker and Cutoff is enabled. But the other apps do not say how they were woken up.
Better uninstall Greenify and then reinstall following the recommended procedure and for good measure clean up data also.

Had the same problem, and this solved it! Thanx, this setting is sooooo non-intuitive...
I cut FB from SayHi and Skout. then i decided that i might actually want to have SayHi to be able to wake up FB, so I reattached it. but it seems to have reattached everything else to FB. and I can't see the scissors icon anymore. FB doesn't say "woken up by..", it now says "content provided: AttributionIdProvider". I have tried clearing data and reinstalling the 3 apps and Greenify itself, didn't fix it. Any ideas? Thanks!
I'm on rooted S4 mini LTE running Android 4.4.2 stock and Greenify 2.6 beta 8.
nvm, scissors are showing on Greenify 2.5.2.

Yesterday the Dev stated this in another sub thread:
"Since the wake-up cut-off engine is upgraded in 2.6, Greenify now does not list the detailed paths cut-off due to the complexity, and the "re-attach" action re-attaches all the paths cut-off. I'm planning to bring back more details in Greenify for cut-off paths in the future version."
So is the Cut-off thing just for the donation version?

As I am using the donation version and have this option available, whereas you don't have this option, I would say: yes. But have you tried looking for the scissor icon for different apps? The wakeup-path cut-off option does not work for all apps, so you might want to check it by clicking on apps that are listed under "running" when you open Greenify (main screen).

I FOUND A WAY!
Okay, so for this you need:
Magisk
Xposed for Magisk (possibly also works with normal Xposed)
UnrestrictedGetTasks module found in Xposed Installer
The Apk at the bottom of the first post (Credits to in.abhi9) installed in /system/priv-app (just pop it in any magisk module you have installed in the same folders, so ./system/priv-app/theapk.apk).
a fingerprint gestures app like this that can launch shortcuts or tasker tasks.
using Tasker: In Tasker you need to create two tasks each containing the "run shell" action (they need root). In the first you put "am start in.abhi9.apphistory/in.abhi9.recentswipo.SwipeLeftActivity" and in the second "am start in.abhi9.apphistory/in.abhi9.recentswipo.SwipeRightActivity"
finally link left- and right swipes from the Fingerprint Gestures app to the correct tasker tasks and Bob's your uncle.
using shortcuts: you will need a launcher like nova or action launcher that can launch app activities. In the fingerprint gestures app, select shortcuts, nova/action activities, Recentswipo, and then SwipeLeftActivity and SwipeRightActivity accordingly.
enjoy superior app switching!
Of course you can map any trigger to the tasks you created, they don't have to be fingerprint swipes. I suppose screen swipe gestures can come in handy too!
Original post:
The latest Lenovo Zuk phones have an amazing feature (named U-touch) that let's users swipe their fingerprint scanner to switch apps. This is not just the switch-to-last-app feature we had since Nougat, but it remembers the app-order. Here are two video's to demonstrate what I mean:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wS-LSoraPZg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3sYf4H8yMHw
It seems like the fastest way ever to switch between open apps and as I like to multitask a lot (between more than 2 apps) I'm looking for an app, mod, module, Tasker profile, whatever, to make this happen. It doesn't really matter if it uses the fingerprint scanner (using the Oreo fingerprint gestures api) or if we have to swipe over our navigation bar. Does such a thing exist at all?

One thing I really miss about my z2 force was being able to lock the phone with the fingerprint scanner can you use this with tasker to make that happen?

Yes you can, tasker can already do that with "system lock" (however that disables the use of the fingerprint reader on the lock screen).
Are you rooted? Then you can simply create a task with a shell command (with root enabled) "input keyevent POWER", that will emulate a power button press. If you like you can then execute that task from the fingerprint gestures app
Works here without Xposed installed

Nice! I tried that as well but the recent apps wouldn't be loaded due to Google removing the ActivityManager.getRecentTasks() command in AOSP, are you perhaps running a custom rom?
I also found out you can just run GMD gestures to go to the previous and next app without xposed (but with root) either with gestures or with the fingerprint swipe mapped to a gmd shortcut

With GMD, would I still need unrestricted get tasks and tasker?
Thanks!

Can you elaborate a little bit more about how to set this up with GMD and Fingerprint Swipes?

If you open the fingerprint gestures app and assign a shortcut to a certain swipe, select the gmd shortcuts from the list, application, next/previous app respectively.
I however still use the xposed version as it can reach the homescreen using swipes (similar to the Zuk) instead of cycling the opened apps and the animation is smoother.

Those were the exact steps I took, but for some reason after I select "next/previous app" it just returns to the list of shortcuts instead of registering the shortcut with the gesture. However, I'm going to give the xposed version a try after your insight about the animation being smoother. I'm all for smoother animations! :good: Thanks again for your help.

Oh that's odd, oh well... You'll probably enjoy Xposed, I haven't used it since Marshmallow due to it lacking behind, so it's fun to be able to use it again (go Gravitybox)! And I don't even notice a performance hit at all (which I was worried about), the only downside is the safety net, but hey, Android Pay isn't available here anyway.

If you use systemless Xposed for Magisk you can just disable the module and reboot to pass Safety Net. Works for all my banking apps and Android Pay :good:
Thank you for showing this awesome feature!
How exactly do you install it as system app? Is it even necessary? I was successful just installing the apk as normal app and then using Nova launcher.
Tried using the tasker method but the finger gesture app kept crashing even though the Tasker tasks seemed to work when testing inside Tasker.

It's probably crashing because it's isn't a system app yet. The easiest way to make it a system app is using a systemizer module in magisk (I believe it uses terminal emulator when it's installed, it's explained in the module description anyway). Or you could do it the "cheating" way and put the apk in your root directory /magisk/(a module)/system/priv-app/RecentSwipo/RecentSwipo.apk
Installing to priv-app wont work, app wont appear. Installing it to /system/app or simply install the apk work though. Although if it installed as user app, the service might be killed in the background.
GMD Solution wont work, the Fingerprint Swipe app unable to assign the proper shortcut. I think the problem is with the GMD.

Works for me... put the apk in root/system/priv-app and changed the permissions to 755
Can't get the shell code to work: getting this when ran in terminal

Error type 3
Error: Activity class {in.abhi9.apphistory/i

ot exist.
I used systemizer module from Magisk to turn the app to a system apk, installed BusyBox and changed SeLinux to premissive. What am I doing wrong?

Is recentswipo already listed in ypur app drawer ?
Also, no need for the terminal stuff, just use nova or any other app that can get shortcut to activities

Thanks, that was what was missing... Used Magisk to turn it into a system app. Good to go
Loving my Mate 20 Pro, coming from HTC U11 big difference! (though to be honest am missing my phone a bit :crying: )
Anyway on the HTC I had the option to hide apps from the app list/drawer. Not uninstall them, just hide them from the list of installed apps. Is this possible with the Huwaei? Don't want nosy husband/kids to know all the apps I have installed. And yes they all have access to my phone
EMUI has a "Hidden Application Menu" which you can access by doing a two finger zoom gesture on the home screen (reverse of a pinch)
After opening this tap the + to add apps. Then just pinch to go back to normal.
Just remembered - this is disabled by default on the M20P so do the following:
- Install "Tweaker for Huawei" from the Play Store
- When you go to turn on the hidden application menu it will say you can't and to download an addon
- download the addon and tap to install it - you will be prompted to allow installs
- enable the hidden application menu then restart the phone
That should be it.

Thank you! I have installed and installed the add on and enabled hidden application menu no problem. I am zooming in on all screens, nothing. Zooming in on all pages does nothing, and cannot find a setting anywhere to hide an app.
You need to zoom out XD
Aha I actually meant out as in a reverse pinch. Nothing a happening
And your setting in Tweaker looks like this?
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ZSflN9lSx3biVDRbZOVC6zlY1A1hfxHX/view?usp=sharing
Yes exactly.
Then I don't know That should be it as long as you restarted the phone after enabling it.

I can now hide applications running on my Mate 20 pro
I have been faced with the problem of hiding applications but applied the solution suggested by you, but I must explain to you why you did not work first after you have all the steps listed + restart the device must return to the same option and activate it again and on activation you will see a message that was activated and after this step You must change Drawer and make Standard and then work with you

Hello, if you change "Drawer" to "Standard" and now hide the app and then select back "Drawer", does the app stays hidden or it shows inside the app drawer?
Thank you
