Hello,
I'm searching for an application (or xposed mod) which allow to set localisation per application
I would like to be able to set high/low/off localisation depending on the app. High for outside application (Waze), low for apps who are used inside and off app who don't need any localisation
Does this thing exist ?
Juste use appsxposed module....work perfectly with 4.4....5.0..... And 5.1.1....
And with it you can adjsut all the permissions of all the apps :cyclops:
I tried it but it's not what I'm looking for. I don't want to adjust permissions, I want GPS switched on automatically when I launch a specific app.
From now, each time I want to use Waze, I must go to settings=>Localisation=>switch on localisation=>choose High accuracy mode ! And I quit Waze I must come back and switch localisation off0
And I would like to launch Waze directly with High accuracy. I hope it's more clear now..
Off course, I could let the localisation set to high accuracy mode all the time but it drains battery too fast.
With xposed module you can adjust the gesture on the home screen, for me when i slide down on left it's notification normaly, and when i slide on the right it's the quick setting....so it's allready fast....no?but if you want an application of automatisation the phone's opération you want...sure it's exist on the Google play or xda but i don't know the name....search about that
The best automatization app is TASKER, if you need that, otherwise there was APP SETTINGS with xposed, but seems to don't work good with android 5.1

Whenever anyone asks about stuff running the background and how to kill it, the responses always include - "don't worry about it" - Why not? Why should I be ok with the idea that a program that I downloaded, but never ran, is running in the background?
People don't say its 'ok' for all of those apps to be running in the background. It just depends on the type of app before you start to worry. It's 'ok' for some of those apps since they may do some sort of service which is required by either the user or the system.
Another thing to remember is that Android will manage running apps by itself, so when necessary it will kill apps to make sure it has enough available memory to run stuff that you manually start up.
If you'd rather be in control of manually killing running apps then I'd recommend a free all-in-one app called ZDBox (available via the android market):

Since you don't need to use them, why you download them?
Well, I think the free all-in-one app is a good choice.
there are lots of apps functioning like that
Because google loves to spy on us.
It's ok because it's how you get a lot of functionality from some apps. Some Widgets for example need to update regularly (while you are on the homescreen at least) so that you get the latest information.
A well written app will only update / run when necessary (using the AlarmManager class typically). Too frequent updating will cause problems with battery life, none at all will cause out of date data being shown (e.g. for my Awesome Widgets I have to update my clock widget very regularly while it is being viewed in order that I can update the clock time (and weather if it has changed)).
It's not about spying, it's about getting functionality out of your Android device.
All the best,
Ash
its just bull****! sory! i have had bRIA take up like 40% of battery even tho i never ran it and i thought it wasnt running ... had to uninstall it... android for sure is great in some areas but definately not perfect,and pls dont tell average users about startup managers etc.
lol nice rant
Hi everyone.
After one of the recent updates to Google Maps on my Android the traffic layer is turned on by default so every time I open the app I see the different colors for traffic congestion. I know how to turn it off manually but I have to do it every time I open the app. It didn't use to be like that. It used to be off by default.
Is there any way to turn off the traffic layer by default so it's not on when I start the app?
Thank you.
Would like to disable it too.
Please where is this function? And battery optimization permission.... Are same things ? Thank
From what I've been able to determine, there is no 'protected apps' menu option on Emui 8.
The place to adjust them is in - Settings - Battery - Launch. Personally I find Huawei's management way too agressive, so I turned off managing all automatically. Then in batch manually set everything to allowed and let Android sort it out. It doesn't seem to have made any difference to my battery life, but at least most notifications seem to work now. You could manually set only the ones you want to allow to run in the background though and it might help.
From settings - battery I also went into the settings icon top right and turned off the 'power intensive prompt' option because it was annoying - Google maps is SUPPOSED to be using frequent positioning, and my podcast app isn't much use if it isn't running in the background!
The whole power management seems to be designed for a phone with a tiny battery, where micro management is needed - but on a phone with the largest battery out of any flagship it seems needlessly aggressive....
Edit: It is also possible in the running apps/recent apps screen to click the lock icon on a program which is supposed to prevent Android from closing that app - but not sure how effective that is on EMUI.
Hello to all. I have installed in huawei mate 10 pro and I would like to use an application to notify gmail emails and whatsapp messages on always on display. use led blinker application that works properly when the phone is charging, while when it is without cable the notifications arrive only when I turn on the screen. I can think that it is a protection of consumption but I have activated all possibilities. could someone tell me what I could activate to solve this problem? thank you
This does exist. It's in the recent apps page (bottom left/right button, depending on your settings).
If you press the lock icon on an app it should "lock" the app from automatically closing.
It also prevents that app closing when you tap the recycle bin icon in the recent apps page.
This is exactly what I need, but I am running EMUI 9 on mate 10 pro and I cannot find this "lock"!! Yet I am sure I have seen it at some point in time... X-(
I just got the Android Pie/EMUI 9 upgrade last week and I found the lock by accident. When viewing your apps in the recents view, find the app you want to lock and drag it down towards the trash icon. You should now see the lock icon for that app at the top, and it should be protected from clearing recents. Clicking the lock or dragging it down again should toggle the lock.
On recent apps list, slide down the app window to lock - lock pad on top. Slide again to unlock
Hi guys,
I cooked up some tasker mods to address some of the graciously few problems I have with the software of the mate 20x. I thought they might be useful to some of you guys so I figured I'd share. The plugins used are AutoInput, AutoLaunch, AutoNotifications, and AutoTools.
Mod List:
1. Fixed Auto-rotate Lock: uses the quick tile to auto-rotate or lock to any orientation
2. Swipe Recent Apps Switcher: cycle through previous apps by swiping on the bottom of the screen ala iPhone
3. Auto-disable Eye comfort: pop-up prompt when activating chosen apps that automatically disables eye comfort mode
4. Automatic Screen Filter: activates the free app Night Screen when brightness is set to minimum and disables it when brightness is raised
1. Fix Auto-rotate Lock
There are two versions of this mod, one which uses the system quick tile and one which uses an AutoNotifications quick tile. The AutoNotifications quick tile is more reliable and allows you to seamlessly lock orientation in landscape or inverted. The system quick tile is more clunky and you cannot lock in inverted, but it's a bit faster. If anyone knows where to find the system quick tile icons please tell!
Simply import the profiles to Tasker and turn them on. Choose "Rotate On" for the system qt or "AltRotate On" for the AutoNotifications qt.
2. Swipe Recent Apps Switcher
This mod will track all activated apps in an array so they can be systematically called back. It also offers swipe gestures at the bottom of the screen which can be used to cycle through them. Swipe left or right to go back and forth through your recent apps. After settling on an app, the app list will be updated to bring your active app to the front.
To install, import and turn on all profiles and run the swipe task. The Swipe task must be ran to provide gestures. The overlay providing gestures is at the very bottom of the screen, so just swipe your finger along the screen edge. Modify your settings and profiles to make sure that Swipe, AutoTools, and Tasker stay on with full permissions. This mod requires that tasker monitoring use accessibility. In the no root version some apps will refresh their state when activated (es explorer). This is because apps are 'launched' and not 'brought to foreground'. In the root version this is not an issue.
3. Auto-disable Eye comfort
This will provide a discrete pop-up in the corner of your screen when you activate the selected apps. I set up the profile with the apps I use for photo and video editing. When you click the pop up it will automatically open the drawer and disable the eye comfort quick tile. The pop up will go away in 5 seconds if not clicked, or can be swiped away.
To install, place the "bubble" folder in your AutoTools webscreen folder. The file paths should match up, but you may need to modify them. Import and turn on. The no root plugin uses AutoInput to press the fourth quick tile. If you have eye comfort on another quick tile you will need to change the touch coordinates. The root option will, if prompted, automatically switch eye comfort on and off as you switch between monitored apps. If you dismiss the prompt it will not ask again until eye comfort is toggled.
4. Automatic Screen Filter
When brightness is lowered to the minimum level, this mod will launch the app Night Screen to lower the brightness with a screen filter. When the brightness is raised above minimum it will turn night screen off.
You can change the app used, but it must have a toggle or on/off activity to be launched by secure settings. I found Night Screen to be the best for me. Import and turn on profiles.
There may be some bugs due to inconsistent Tasker monitoring and the system messing with things. Unfortunately there is little I can do about this.
ps. the zip is NOT installable
Sorry I'm stumped about how to embed youtube videos. Here's links.

I vastly improved the app switcher to function much more intuitively and more like a native function. It's works pretty much exactly like on the iPhone, accept the animations are going the wrong way. I'll test it out a bit then update the post.
You sir are incredible
Post has been updated with a new app switcher, a root app switcher which fixes the launching problem, and a root eye comfort prompt which modifies the setting directly and has enhanced functionality. Also now none of the mods are dependent on the Secure Settings plugin

Such as:
Auto speakerphone when call connects by default
When I get in the car, show a list of media players as a popup (bc bt connected)
$60 via PayPal thx
I really appreciate the offer, but thats not how xda works. This is where people help people, and I've benefited far too much through the days on the generosity of others to be greedy now.
I took a quick look and it and there is a State profile called "BT Connected". You should be able to check your bluetooth settings for the exact name of your car and insert that into the Name field. Then you would make a Scene containing buttons corrosponding to your desired media player. This should be reletively straightforward. When the BT is connected, show the scene with the buttons then launch your choice. This can be done with the AutoLaunch plugin or by android intent by running code 'am start --activity-reorder-to-front PACKAGE_NAME/MAIN_ACTIVITY'. The main activity intent is easily found through terminal if you're rooted but I dont remember how to find it if you're not rooted.
For the call I would use the State profile "Call". I am not sure if this will activate after the call is connected or while the phone is ringing for incoming calls. If its when the phone is ringing I would then set up a loop with "AutoInput Query" to check whether the call was connected. Run a couple tests with the query to see what the variable values are when the call is connected and check for those values to escape the loop. When the call is connected, use auto input to click on the speakerphone button automaticly. You can use the auto option to configure this or you can go into developer mode on your phone and enable show pointer location to get the coordinates. Coordinates are faster that text matching, but you might have to add a wait for 500ms to avoid it touching too early.
That should be it, pretty straightforward. You've inspired me to update this list with my new rotate toolbar and fixes. Happy tinkering!
That being said, I would be willing to do it for you if you would rather pay for a finished solution. However, I greatly encourage you to give it a go yourself, the possibilities are endless once you get comfortable with Tasker.
There doesn't seem to be a way to turn on high performance mode outside of navigating to battery in the settings and then advanced battery settings. Does anyone know of a way to add a notification switch or even a widget on the home screen to quickly turn it on and off?
Also I have tried my best to eliminate the OS's ability to kill apps running in the background. The one I have issues with the most is PokemonGo. I will switch from one app to another and when going back to PokemonGO it will have killed it and it restarts when going back to it. Loading like I just opened the app for the first time.
Things I have done so far. Disabled battery optimization for the app in the battery settings and turned on "Allow background activity" in the app settings under app management.
I have no task killers installed and the OS is basically stock after a factory reset.
I'm rooted and on DE2118_11_C.16
Have you tried locking the PokemonGo app to prevent it from being suspended?
Also you should check setting under developer mode in APPS section: Susspend execution for cached apps.
I would lower the background process limit from 5 to 3 due to the limited amount of ram on this device and lock any app you want to continue to run if it falls into 4th place.
Also, I would tur off RAM Boost as it does not improve app selection based on my use.
I have it locked yes, still gets closed in the background at random it seems.
RAM Boost was off as well.
The Suspend execution for cashed apps can you explain a bit on how this works? Do I have to cache the app or something in addition for it to work?
I keep the VPN Hotspot, AD Guard, and Pokemon GO locked.

This will "freeze" apps that are cached (past the open app limit) and they will not take any resources. This also will cause them to stop responding like your Pokemon app.
