ROM with Profiles

I am looking to replace CyanogenMod on my N6, but am attached to their System Profiles feature. Specifically the ability to completely skip the lockscreen when attached to WiFi or Bluetooth.
The new LP system security feature adds a lockscreen that I don't want, and cannot bypass even with lockscreen notifications turned off.
I'd be happy with the stock ROM and a tweak to bypass the lockscreen if anyone knows of one.
I've been reading all of the various ROM features, but none have this listed (that I saw. Bit of a needle in a haystack). It may be there, but I missed it, or just not considered important enough to list as a feature.
Thanks.

I just use tasker and secure settings for this. Though I haven't used 5.1 so cannot confirm it works

Thanks. I will take a look. I have a Tasker license, although I haven't used it in ages.

ROM Recommendation #DontHate

Love pure nexus, have also been in chroma and liked it but not since I returned my faulty device. I remember days on my note 2 where I could go full screen and have pie settings. . Any stable ROMS capable of that stuff?
Dustin

There are a few options. I am unsure if the ROM(s) you are using have PIE built in, but a lot do. If not, you can probably disable the navigation bar, and install something like LMT. A quick glance at Pure Nexus' page it looks to have the option to disable the navbar, so you can use something like LMT or some other pie launcher (I don't know if LMT is still the go-to for pie) if they don't include one.
Alternatively, if you use Xposed, something like Gravitybox should be able to accomplish all of this.
Or third, flash a ROM that has it built in. There are likely many ROMs that include it, or a version of it natively.

Benzorom has pie controls built in. But its not stable compared to pure nexus IMO

Stock plus Xposed/GravityBox/any other modules. Stable but with all the options you'll find in a custom ROM.

Do most (or all) allow for wi fi tethering w/o having a tethering plan? As a grandfathered Verizon unlimited data customer that's an absolute necessity for me.

[PORTING] [NEED HELP] [N] Gravitybox for Nougat Unofficial

outdated
go to here
Gravitybox for nougat
removed the "gravitybox framework not responding" error on api 24 and 25
also re-branded the app as gravitybox for nougat
tested working:
battery (kind of)
center clock + day of the week
data transmission Monitor
power setting menu
skip tracks with volume buttons
clock settings
you tell me...
Not working:
Stock battery with percentage
Quick Settings
Lock screen shortcuts
Setting of the optional button
deactivate network type indicator in status bar
Navigation bar tweaks (BRICK WARNING!)
you tell me...
sources for helpers
download links for sdk 24 and 25 are the same
Code:
uninstall the old one, otherwise it'll give "Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_DUPLICATE_PERMISSION: Package com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox attempting to redeclare permission gravitybox.permission.UNLOCK already owned by com.ceco.marshmallow.gravitybox]" error
Since I won't have a lot of time to port everything (btw, I'm already late for one thing right now) so I expect the community to help.
That's why I posted the source at github, this way anyone can collaborate to the code.
Anyone that helps me will get credit too, just claim it someway I can see it
brick fix by @photoguy29
To fix this: Reboot to TWRP recovery and navigate to: Advanced>File Manager>data>data>com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox
Once you are in the com.ceco.nougat.gravitybox folder, in the bottom right corner is a folder Icon. Tap that icon>delete
This will delete all the changes you made in Gravitybox, and upon reboot, the System UI functions properly. The gravitybox apk will also still be installed, so you can go and re-activate your tweaks that WERE working.

For me works:
battery
center clock + day of the week
data transmission Monitor
power setting menu
Not works:
Lock screen shortcuts
Setting of the optional button

Why that rush?
I have already migrated like 90% of the module to Nougat after working for almost 2 weeks on it non-stop. Currently QS management is undergoing redesign and there's still quite a lot of work left. It's still a work in progress - not suitable to be made available to the masses and also, I am still not convinced whether to release something as there is no official Xposed Framework. I'll see.

@ C3CO76
Because I like it a lot your gravity box [emoji41] [emoji39]
Wysłane z mojego Moto G (4) przy użyciu Tapatalka

I'm glad you like it. But then it doesn't make any sense to release a version that is far from working when you could keep it for personal use.
Feel me?

@C3C076 i guess people love GB so much
This ported xposed for N situation is confusing but people are desperate to have xposed and their beloved modules even if its partially working

Can't live without gb's pie control

sorry, I didn't knew it, I looked into the git and thought that no one would do it anymore (because nougat had been here for a long time)
but still a lot of people are just crazy like me that wants it even if sacrifices need to be made, just like people wants an unstable xposed rather then nothing, they want the gravitybox
and no one uses every tweak available like me, I just use one or two and both works
I'm glad to see you haven't abandoned the project, I wouldn't be able to do it like you
and please release it, for people like us, there are 66422 downloads on the xposed for nougat thread (counting the xposed installer app because it's the same for both api levels and only one version) not counting people like me that downloaded it from the alternate link.
sort of 66422 persons waiting for gravitybox to be released even if it breaks something
and not everyone knows how to release a version that is far from working when you could keep it for personal use, I learned how to use xposed 3 years before learning something that would allow me to do this port (and it still sucks)

Yes, I understand. Hard to tell what comes next at this time. I will be taking decisions after I am happy enough with the migration results and the results of internal testing on various device/OS combinations I have at hand.

not working : deactivate network type indicator in status bar

Is lockscreen transparency and blur working

Not working: Navigation bar tweaks
Activating the master switch will cause the System UI to crash upon reboot.

Stock battery with percentage not working for me.

I believe what this guy is doing, is a good thing, if people get into installing Xposed modules that are unofficial they should know that it's unstable, and in most cases can brick your device. CT, I do see where you're coming from, but it's along the lines of "People don't kill people, guns do." No, that's not how the world works, and everyone on the Internet should be able to share what they want.

Thanks for the mod, working battery percentage (buggy), skip tracks with volume buttons, clock settings, advances power menu. Moto G5+ stock rom sdk 24 Xposed systemless (magisk)

Patience is a virtue...

yes, that's what I meant
if you use any xposed version with any module, custom roms, root, any mods you shouldn't care about stability (people do but they shoudn't)
by the way, I looked on the Gravitybox git and I saw no nougat branch
so I did this because I thought that either the creator wouldn't make any more releases or he hadn't started (and if he wanted to use my as base because of the mm to n naming changes could save him like 5 minutes and I wanted to help and this is all the only help I can give)
and I had this mod for myself because Center clock and round battery works and I only use thoose
but I thought on the people at the same situation that coudn't do It by themselves
but thanks again for C3C076 for being patient with my impatience
I'm happy it won't be my job to port the rest of it because it'd be baaad

Are you rooted and why?

Just as the title says I'm just asking those of you who are rooted and a quick brief explanation of why? Even those not rooted I would also encourage to Express your reasonings.
Personally I'm not rooted right now because I don't have TWRP and Google pay is iffy at the moment but I would love to root for substratum, adaway, and Viper sound mods.
Thanks guys.

Google Pay works with a simple fix in Termux app - no issues with it unless you use EdXposed.
I'm rooted for modding, theming, ability to install custom kernel, Button Mapper capabilities, Swift Backup, ability to fix device ambient EQ, ability to mod Active Edge, ability to use Lawnchair with QuickStep recents. mod accent colors to cool neon colors, iYTPB YouTube mod.. Substratum (not using currently but will be soon), ability to hide navbar.. the list goes on.
I'm rooted because this is a Google device with open source code and active development so modding and customizing my device is easy, fun, and I am able to see the changes being made without the blind guesswork and hackery involved in trying to develop for so many half-baked source release devices.

rooted so I can use;
- AdAway
- ViPER4Android
- EdXposed
As previously mentioned, Gpay is working fine.
And you don't "need" TWRP to root the P4XL.

Thanks for your input guys but I'm a little confused through googling I see a magisk module that supposedly does all the necessary scripting in the background and then like mentioned here I see manually editing via termux. So I'm just wondering what is the exact procedure or is there a thread I can't seem to find with the exact instructions?

I recommend this Termux fix, believe spaceman860 from DU is the first I saw using this but could be wrong, copying this from Telegram
Gpay fix v2
1. Install Termux app and open the app
2. Type pkg install sqlite hit enter and let it install.
3. Type su hit enter
4. Copy and paste this then hit enter
am force-stop /data/data/com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel && chmod 777 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db && /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db "update main set c='0' where a like '%attest%';" && chmod 444 /data/data/com.google.android.gms/databases/dg.db
5. Reboot

I'm rooted mainly so I can install a custom kernel. I always end up rooting for one small reason or another.

Because i can

Adaway for now.

I root for,
AdAway
YouTube Vanced
Active Edge Mod
Custom Fonts
Themes (Swift Installer and Substratum)
Viper4Android
Centre Clock Mod
Build prop edits (just to change volume steps, really)
Screen recorder with internal audio recording
iOS Emojis
Some Tasker stuff that requires root
Swift Backup
SD Maid Pro

Main feature is custom kernel... It can realy provide a boost

@rickysidhu_ can you give me a link to the screen recording app please?

- EX Kernel

Yes, rooted.
Because I use:
Custom Kernels (battery saving)
BlackenedMod (battery saving)
AdAway (no ads!)
YouTube Vanced (YouTube without ads and other cool features!)
Custom Themes (just a better colour palate for OEM colours in styles)
Viper4Android (awesome sound on speakers/earphones)
Centre Clock Mod (purely aesthetic)
TiB (backing up and restoring apps)

I haven't rooted since the first pixel. Haven't needed to. Adguard premium does what I need along with YouTube vanced.
I'll never bother messing with my phones again.

I'm rocking a P3xl, but I rooted for...
Advanced Charging Control module - allows me to control how the battery is charged - (ie lower the max charge to 80% and other things that should increase overall battery life)
Active Edge Mod (mostly standard settings, but can squeeze to take a picture when the camera is open instead of having to press the shutter button on the screen. This really helps when trying to hold the phone with one hand).
Viper4Android
AdAway
YouTube Vanced
ExperimentalX kernel - great kernel and it has high brightness mode (HBM) support too. (Like the Pixel 4 series, the 3a series has a max brightness that is actually lower than the screen is capable of. HBM overrides this and truly maxes the brightness. It really helps when using the phone outside in bright sunlight).
With the Pixel 4 series, I think being able to map the Soli gestures for other things might be very interesting too.

FINGERFACE!!!!!! How can Google release a flagship model with no FP sensor before getting all the banking/security apps to support the Face-unlock API???

They don't call it the bleeding edge for nothing and something had to come first; there would never be support without need and there is no need until someone creates it. Realistically Google has used their power over the ecosystem to require support and it's going to be ubiquitous in the near future. For now, some of us have to bleed a little bit...

No need to bleed, just root and install EdXposed and Fingerface.

No longer feel the need to root. System is working just fine and I'm using DNS66 from f-Droid with AdAway hosts. It's working absolutely fine without rooting.

EdXposed and Gravitybox working on ROG phone 3?

As the title asks, does anyone know if EdXposed amd GravityBox are working on the ASUS ROG Phone 3? If they are working, are there any features that are known to cause problems and should not be used?
Thanks all and stay healthy!

Exposed should work fine (haven't tried it myself though).
I thought GravityBox was for Samsung devices only......?
You can also try SystemUI Tuner - a lot of its tweaks do work.

Hey, thanks for the response. As for GravityBox, as far as I know (I could certainly be wrong though) it's developer originally designed it for OnePlus phones due to OnePlus's willingness to give out it's android source code to make it easier for users to root it. Later on, the developer decided to add support for other phones as well.
As for SystemUI Tuner, I've never heard of it. Does it require root? (Im asking because obviously root allows far more customization and that is what I'm looking for.) I am a several year GravityBox user and I want to have at least most of the customization features from GravityBox if I am going to be using a different app/piece of software. For example, I would like to still have the feature such as being able to customize the number of rows and columns in quick settings, keeping the screen off when the charger is plugged in and unplugged, changing the carrier text (i.e. instead of "MyCarrier" you can put anything you want), having the network speed & date AND time in the status bar and changing the position of all of the items in the status bar, having right and left arrow keys in the NavBar when the keyboard is showing, amongst other things.
