Amazing thanks! Exactly what I needed with radon and double tap

Good, why would u disable it? Sometimes the sensor cannot recognize my finger so i need to open it via other method like pattern which is my favorite.
But, else it is great. Appreciate ur effort.

there's an option for this in NOS (one of the things that makes my life easier)
but it's good to know I can do it myself with other roms

Does it causing problem for a few rom? which is need to input the security code (pin/password/pattern) at every boot up?? Anyone tried with CAF AOSP?

[How To] Add More Apps in Ultra Power Saving Mode (UPSM)

UPSM is good way to save some battery when needed, but only a very limited apps we can use under UPSM. With root access, we can add more apps support in UPSM.
Well, the whole idea of UPSM is to save battery, why on earth we want to add more apps to drain the battery? Because we can :victory:
For the start, our mod will add a few applications so you can test it out before customizing your own application list.
Apps added in our mod:
1) Camera
2) Gallery
3) Torch (included AOSP torch.apk for this feature)
4) Chrome
5) Hangout
Instruction to add more apps to UPSM
1) Download the UPSM_Add_More_Apps.zip from : http://electron-team.com/ADDONS/other/
2) Put zip file in sd card.
3) Boot in recovery and clear cache partition
4) Flash the zip file and reboot your phone
5) Boot into UPSM to test the added applications
How to add your own apps?
6) Go to system/csc and open up allowed_apps_upsm.xml with text editor
7) Add your desired applications. You need to know the application Package Name and the Main Class Name. Check the app's Android.Manifest.xml to find out.
8) Then go to phone data/data/com.sec.android.emergencylauncher/databases/ and delete EmergencyLauncherUPSM.db
9) Reboot your phone.
10) Done.
Note: Music app doesn't work in UPSM because some background services has been turn off.
Wish to have Xposed module or app to easily add more app to UPSM? Me too. Let's hope somebody could make one in future.:fingers-crossed:

I made a quick app to easily add more apps to the upsm list. I am still testing it to make sure it is writing the list right. I will share it soon enough.

My S5 does not have in system/csc a file named "allowed_apps_upsm.xml". It only has: contents.db, customer.xml, default_workspace.xml, feature.xml, others.xml, and sales_code.dat. Help?!
Also will this work on a Sprint Galaxy S5? (SM-G900P)
I hope that someone will turn on music files on upsm.
hello, is it possible to have gps turned on while screen is off.
I want to run Sports Tracker in this mode, but it stops working after turning off the screen

if it doesnt have that file you can add it. No problem. Take one of the files published ona previous page, copy it into system/csc and give rw-r-r permissions. then reboot. It should work on all devices, including sprint. Cheers!

I don't have in com.android.sec.emergencylauncher this file.......db And upsm manager don't work on omega 7.1 why ?
Obviously if you run more apps, you'll use some more power when you're using those new apps in power save mode. But will adding more to the menu use any more power while you're not using these?
What I'm really trying to establish is if there's any negative point to adding more apps in power save mode.

Hey mate, I think I came across something today that may answer your question.
After adding settings with UPSM manager, I went into "manage apps" and discovered that whilst in this mode, all apps are marked as "disabled" except for those that work in upsm.
Based on this observation, it seems like UPSM actually disables all apps (and by consequence their background services) to save battery, not just hiding them.
So to answer your question, I'd guess that adding more apps will not in itself cause battery drain, unless the apps have battery/ram consuming background services. Therefore my approach is to enable as few apps as I need (whatsapp, music etc), whilst leaving off apps like facebook which has notifications etc.
Hope that helps you or someone
Work with NE5?
Does this work with NE5? I can't seem to get it to work. I am stock rooted without tripping KNOX.
I don't have either of the mentioned files:
system/csc/allowed_apps_upsm.xml
data/data/com.sec.android.emergencylauncher/databases/EmergencyLauncherUPSM.db
I don't even have the data/data/com.sec.android.emergencylauncher/databases directory.
Tried using the app and that adds the system/csc/allowed_apps_upsm.xml file but it doesn't affect the available applications list in UPM mode.
link doesn't work anymore (404). can somebody upload xml file I don't have it on my S5 . Will it work on lollipop?

data/
com.android.providers.settings/
databases/
settings.db/

I recently activated the Google Assistant on my OnePlus 2. Its a little different than installing on other devices.anyways, lets get started!
**I am not responsible for any problems in your device, This is just the method I used to activate Google Assistant for Myself(and my friends,worked every time!)**
Prerequisites:

2.Rooted OP2
3.Installed ES File Explorer!
4.Installed Android 7.x ROM.
How to get started:
Download the files from here : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=121914
Put All files in same folder in your phone internal memory.
Thanks to @FaserF
Now...
1.Boot to Recovery.
2.Flash the Zip GoogleAssistantVelvet.zip
3.Flash the ZipGoogleAssistantBuildProp.zip (this will install the "tweak.prop" into your build.prop)
Now boot to your device.
4.Open ES file explorer and Activate "Root Explorer".
5.Mount R/W in memory , /system directory.
Here you will find the file "build.prop"
6.Remove these lines :
ro.product.brand=OnePlus
ro.product.name=OnePlus2
7.In the place of removed lines, add this-
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
Now save the changes.

I am using FireHound 7.0 and nothing seems broken to me because of Google Assistant!
Beware if you're on AICP, this locked up my phone, had to restore my backup again. If you're on AICP, just use the other Google Assistant thread and add the entries to build.prop yourself.
I've tried flashing these two files on 3 different ROMs with pico gapps--- Official RR 6.0.1, Graraks CM14, Firehound OS 7.0 but every time, the phone gets struck at 1+ bootlogo. I don't know what's going wrong. Please help.
1 more thing, while flashing the 2nd zip, some Error 1 appears in twrp.
Edit: its working good. I just didn't downloaded that tweak.prop. Now it works flawlessly!
Thanks!✌

do you even read the requirements?
Just my two cents: there's no need to do any of that really to get Google assistant to work on Android N builds.
Just make sure that you have the latest version of the Google search app, then add these two lines to your build.prop file and reboot. After that, just clear Google search's data and then open the assistant using the same shortcut that you've used to open now on tap before(long press home by default), when asked about setting up "ok Google" select "I'll do it later"(to avoid crashes).
That's it

can u please explain which two lines to add? There is just one single line which is to be added in the build.prop.
The lines are:
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
After putting these in the build.prop and rebooting, clear Google search's data and the assistant should work
not working on Halogen OS 7.0
Just wanted to comment on the OP.
Adding the two lines works. No need to flash anything or delete any lines. It works just as on any other device.
At least on CM14/.1
Tried to activate assistant by put these two lines into build.prop... Seems to be OK but every time I finish voice recognition setup for "OK Google" and want to try it, it starts the setup again...
Any solution?
well can anyone try to help me ?

I've been looking how to apply theses steps o a Samsung Galaxy with Lineage OS.
You can follow the steps as described in the post, but you won't find button 703 on the "Generic.kl" file. You have to search for a file named "gpio_keys.kl" on the same folder:
/root/system/usr/keylayout/

Also, I've found other commands to try if you wish:
APP_SWITCH - Recent apps button
ASSIST - Google Assistant (with item display on the screen)
CALCULATOR - Open default calculator app
CALENDAR - Open default calendar
CALL - Open default call app
CAMERA - Open camera
CONTACTS - Open default contacts app
EXPLORER - Favorite internet browser
HOME - Homebutton
MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE - Play pause media
MESSAGE - Default messenger
MUSIC - starts your favorite music player
POWER - Power menu
QPANEL_ON_OFF - Notification area
SYSRQ - Take a screenshot
VOICE_ASSIST - Google Assistant
VOLUME_DOWN - Sets volume down
VOLUME_MUTE - Volume media (set default media volume in phone setting)
VOLUME_UP - Sets volume up
All the steps described above have worked for me on a Galaxy S8 and a Galaxy S9+, with Lineage OS 15.1 and Lineage OS 16.
