on/off feature

Is there an LG knock knock apk app available for the Moto X?

AFAIK , no. but there's a few apps that can turn your phone on by shaking it

Swiping down when Active Notifications is displaying turns on the device. I actually prefer this to knock on.

I think it has to be built into the kernel. There are double tap to wake features that can be built into a kernel, I use DT2W on my Nexus 7.2 and it is really nice, and i agree that the active notifications make it easy, but there are sometimes i don't want to nudge my phone (first world problems) to get them to activate. A simple double tap makes things that much easier.

This and I double tap on my homescreen to turn it off with Screen Off and Lock (Donate) via a gesture in Nova Launcher Prime.

Moto X - Lock Screen Widgets

I just picked up a Moto X earlier this evening and I had two questions about it.
1. Can you add slider shorcuts on the lock screen like you can on CM11?
2. Is there a way to disable the vibrate feature when using active display?
Thanks in advance

1. Not on stock, maybe there is a mod or something like that, but you would have to unlock your bootloader and root ( assuming you are on 4.4.2)
2. There is since the last update, go to your settings -> sound and uncheck vibrate on touch

If you have a carrier branded model (vzw, or at&t) you will not be able to unlock the boot loader... You can however root the device and with gravity box you can have lock screen widget shortcuts when you touch the unlock symbol it will show the shortcuts you preset.
MOTO X SLAPPED

[Q] How to disable "Swipe down from the top to exit full screen" message?

I keep getting this notification when I have various apps open. It doesn't happen with the offending apps on every occasion but I sure as heck would like to disable this obnoxious message permanently of possible. Currently unrooted running stock 4.4.2.
Attached screenshot is the Dynamic Notifications app, not the stock active display.

Looks like you're using Gravity Box, with "expanded desktop" enabled? If so that's probably the issue. Try turning off expanded desktop and let us know if that helps...

Ah...
Ok, here is your answer:
Open Dynamic Notification, click advanced options. Now click advanced options in the drop down menu.
UNCHECK "Use Immersive mode"
The status bar will probably show, but problem solved. Its immersive mode that causes the message to appear.
Any app that uses immersive mode will trigger the pop-up.

Alright thanks. I did try that and it does remove the message, I was just hoping I could get the full screen experience out of it. I'm guessing this is the app's issue? Wish I could just disable hints completely. Don't need em. Thanks man

I don't think its the apps issue...more like a 'bug' in android. Not sure if I would even call it a bug...there just isn't any option anywhere to turn off the immersive mode "swipe down" messages. I imagine it was intentional....cause you just know that 10,000 people would call in to tech support saying they're stuck in full screen and can't get out.
I guess this is one advantage active display has over dynamic notification....that and power saving. AD doesn't actually wake your phone...one of the co-processors in the "X8" system is able to provide the notifications while sipping battery power.

I didn't know that about Active Display in respect to saving battery. Very cool! Might switch back. I was just used to Dynamic Notifications on my old phone.
UPDATE: Per your round-about recommendation I'm now using Active Display. Really like it! Guess I was quick on the trigger with disabling it and installing Dynamic Notifications when I first got the phone. I appreciate it.

Swipe down to exit full screen on xbmc box
Having recently acquired on xbmc box from my son ( he couldn't be bothered to set it up) I was extremely frustrated by the swipe message so I googled it & no one had the answer, so I purchased a wireless keyboard mouse, Bingo Fn+ mouse hover curser over OK & it's gone, if that doesn't work , re install & try again.

Is there a location for the image file in the root folder somewhere so I can delete it? Or a way to change the build.prop?

Oh God don't up a 2 years old thread!

Lock screen shows when I get a notification and not Moto Display

So i might be crazy but I thought before when I got a notification Moto Display would appear and not the lock screen. However, right now when I get a notification the lock screen turns on, and then after the screen times out, Moto Display appears like normal. Which is it supposed to be and if it is supposed to be Moto Display how do I fix it?

You're most likely getting facebook messenger notifications, aren't you? If so, disable the chat heads within the app and they will show again properly on Moto Display.

Nope I don't use messenger. It seems to be my text app and snapchat notifications mainly. But I haven't gotten any other ones so I'm not positive.

Do you have ambient display turned on under display settings?

Nope. But I just figured it out. I went into the apps and notification settings for them and there was the option to "Wake Screen" and that was causing it to show the lockscreen before the Moto Display. However, the "Wake Screen" has been set since I got the phone and it was working fine until yesterday. Not sure what happened to change the behavior of it, but at least I know it is that option in case it happens with a different app.

Cool

Or u can use this app...

as it turns out, you need to have Dev Options turned OFF before turning UI tuner. Then you can enable it. after you see the option, you can enable dev options again
Thats how it worked in my case anyways.

I love you

Nice thing, thanx

Just looked at the video... This is great, but I don't like the number inside the battery... Too tiny to actually read. Anyone have an app to show it as a number next to the battery? My old LG had that as an option in the battery settings... I preferred that. ?

Worked even with dev options on for me though

hmmm. weird. oh well, glad its working

anyone know how to enable the % to the right of the battery instead of within it?

I've done some extensive searching and I could not find an answer. I'd imagine this is a setting in the ROM.
I am now wondering if anyone has found an app that maybe does this. Certainly some apps provide a battery indicator, but specifically one that always sits immediately to the left of the battery icon.

Good work

For those who don't have the System UI Tuner active here is how to enable it:
http://www.greenbot.com/article/3156309/android/androids-system-ui-tuner-what-it-is-and-how-to-use-it.html
First, you need to pull down the notification shade. Then, tap and hold the gear icon in the top right of the screen for a few seconds (on newer phones you’ll feel a vibration upon activation). Once you let go, the tiny cog will roll away and you’ll be taken to the Settings app and a box will appear saying, “Congrats! System UI has been added to Settings.”
To get to the menu, scroll all the way to the bottom of the settings screen. In the second-to-last spot, you’ll see a new System UI Tuner option, right above the About phone tab. Tap it and you’ll open up a set of options for tweaking the interface.
