I use System Settings » Security » Privacy Guard quite often (cynaogenmod 11). So I would like to add a shortcut to that on my home screen. How do I do that?
(I would appreciate if there is a way to do this without a 3rd party app)
Download Launcher 3 from KitKat (CM11) ROM....this stock launcher has this as an inbuilt feature....
now i am on cyanogenmod 11. how do i add the Privacy Guard shortcut to my home screen?
not possible? is there at least an xposed module for this?
I Know this is old but it can be done know with app called quickshortcutmaker. Install through google play store, open and search for privacy. This will bring up a few setting process that can be created as shortcuts. You can also try the shortcut before creating so you know it will work. The correct process to create the shortcut is call $AppOpsSummaryActivity
Hello XDA members,
Sadly, the new S6 and S6 edge comes with pre-installed Whatsapp. Which prevents the installation of any other Whatsapp MOD, such ash Whatsapp+ or others.
The Old project was abandoned, a NEW project called YoWA is now available with more features and better support!
Check it here
BUT NOT ANYMORE! Thanks to Whatsapp MOD by (Archit Jan), I was able to find a way to install a MODED Whatsapp with all privacy mods and visual mods on the S6 and S6 EDGE! WITHOUT ROOT OR UN-INSTALLATION of the original Whatsapp.
The new APP is Called WhatsMapp SOLO, and what makes it different than other MODS, is that it can be installed next to the original Whatsapp. ]
So Basically, you can have 2 numbers on your phone, if you want to.

- Chat balloons colors not working.
How to Install properly (without losing chats or media):
1- Open the Original Whatsapp (pre-installed)
2- Go to settings → Chat settings → Back up Chats (do this 2-3 times)
3- Restart you phone (just to make sure you backups are saved)
4- Back up Chats (one more time)
5- Close Whatsapp from Recents and Turn off WIFI & Mobile DATA (in order not to receive new messages)

I am looking for a feature that disables any notifications from group chats. Example say, once I press mute and untick "Show Notifications", I want the notification completely gone. Example as is I have 2 friends texting me and one group chat going off. I only want to see " 2 messages from 2 conversations".

If you want to permanently disable notification, go to phone settings > Apps > under downloaded tab choose and "WhatsApp" and untick notification. I am not sure whether this is the one you want to achieve.
how i can customize this mode ?

What I meant was if if you have 3 conversations incoming. 2 from separate individuals and 1 group chat. When I press mute and untick "Show Notifications" for the group chat. In the notifications shade, I only want to see " X messages from 2 conversations" instead of "X messages from 3 conversations"
Is it possible to have this running alongside the other whatsapp? Or do I have to disable the orignal whatsapp to use this?
I tried to install it, but it says the version became obsolete because it is old. Any tips on how to get around that?

Only one option is their op should integrate latest whatsapp files in his apk.
Tip : Do not use such whatsapp which disabled your last scene because whatsapp is banning.

WhatsApp temporarily banning the number for using modded apps... Any idea ?
Dear Tasker-Masters,
My goal:
I want to limit the use of certain apps on my son's phone (running CM12.1) using tasker. Some apps (basically games) are time-limited, others shall not be accessible at all.
What I did (apart from deactivating the guest account):
I've defined a profile "No access" that activates when certain apps start (including play store and settings). This profile starts a task calling for a lock screen asking for a code. Locking settings is especially needed to deactivate the option to developer options and root access, access to other appstores, or the device admin section.
What my son did:
He found out, that the locked app appears in the app history. Clicking the locked app in the history immediatly brings up the lockscreen. However, there's a tiny time frame of maybe 0.1 seconds, where the locked app reacts to strokes on the display. This way, it's possible to scroll down the "setting" app until you get to the "security" and "device admin" section, and then to disable tasker from there. Now, profiles cannot read or react to whatever appears in the foreground of the display.
My question:
1. Can you think about a secure way to lock access to android settings? How would that be?
2. is it possible to deactivate the appearence of (only!) the android settings in the app history?
1. Create a profile -> Application -> Settings. This will trigger when someone goes into the settings app (yes even settings its an app).
In the task itself you can just "Go Home".
The task will trigger even if he goes to the settings from the recent app screen.
2. If your phone is rooted then just kill the settings app from running.
If not use AutoInput to press that "kill all" button (unfortunately).
Make sure also that tasker is a device administrator. You don't want your son to "accidentally" uninstall it.
You can't uninstall device admin apps without turning off that setting and he cant go into settings.
I hope these guidelines will help you.
So today, after loading an app, my Nokia 8 decided to reboot itself. After rebooting, a few things ceased to function.
The Home button no longer worked. The recent apps button stopped working, I can pull down the notification bar however, the settings button and extending the notification bar to show notifications no longer functioned.
On top of this, Google Play stopped functioning with regards to installing software and you will notice that you cannot access the developer options anymore (as well as all your personal settings being reset!)
Was at a complete loss at what to do... I managed to install the Nova Launcher from an apk file from there accessed the short cuts to the Setting Wizard and re-ran it.
You can re-run the setting with the same email address and as soon as it's finished, everything should be working back to normal. You may need to reset a few preferences (such as keyboards etc / glance screen etc) but at least all the buttons work again.
Step instructions:
- Download Nova Launcher. If you cannot from the google play store, search for it on Chrome and download an apk version
- Install it (you may get a pop up advising you need to let apps installed from chrome, go to settings and allow it)
- Once installed, click on Open. This should launch the Nova Launcher
- Long press anywhere on the screen
- Choose Widgets.
- Look for the Activities widget and hold and place it anywhere on the screen.
- Scroll down to Setup Wizard. There's two, one that's "Setup Wizard" and the other "SetupWizard" without a space. Choose the first. There should be an option under it called ".SetupWizardUpgradeActivity". It might be slightly different for you pending the version OS you have but that's what came up for me.
- Select that to create the widget shortcut then click to open.
- This will bring you to the setup wizard and then just click Next all the way through (turn off any preferences you may have in the past)
And voila. Back to normal afterwards!
Note: You don't need to use Nova Launcher as your default launcher. You can even uninstall it if you want.
Works!
Thank you, this totally worked!
I think Skype crashing and crashing the phone caused this for me. It's getting an uninstall as a special thank you.
Cheers,
Peter
Please help! I don't see any option for setup wizard!
Android Auto - XLauncher Unlocked v2.0.1
Custom Android Auto launcher, unleash your AA app, unlock more features!
- Source code
- Documentation
- Releases
- XDA Thread
Features
NameDescriptionRoot requiredXposed requiredDefaultSet the next used launch option as defaultClassicLaunch the Android Auto settings, with the classic/stable styleMaterial3Launch the Android Auto settings, with the hidden/experimental Material3 styleDebugLaunch various hidden Android Auto debug screensXposed ModuleUnlock more 3th party Android Auto apps! (e.g. Fermata, OsmAnd, S2A, ...)
Description
XLauncher Unlocked is a separate app, to unlock more features in your Android Auto app.
It can launch existing / hidden Android Auto screens with root / ADB commands.
Classic can be launched without root.
If using the Xposed module,
then it will also hook into an existing Android Auto function,
to run some additional code behind it,
to make some of the "installed as Google Play" checks always come back as valid,
which does not modify the AA app itself.
Due to the nature of the implementation of the features,
you should not have to be afraid of "having to wipe AA data to test".
Because no AA data is touched / no AA files are edited in a persistent way.
Default "launch option"
The "Set the next used launch option as default" check-mark can be used to
automatically launch the "launch option" behind the button you click after checking the check-mark.
After a default "launch option" is configured, the next times you open XLauncher Unlocked,
it will automatically open that "launch option" for you.
This works for every "launch option" (Classic, Material3, Debug options),
and can easily be re-configured by selecting another "launch option" with the check-mark still configured.
Clearing/resetting the usage of the default "launch option" is as easy as un-checking the check-mark

New v2.0 release is out which added a bunch of launcher functions!
You can download it from GitHub: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked/releases/tag/v2.0
Thank you. Interesting app, I will have to play and investigate
I use PlayStore and Play Protect did not let me to install.
I could have to disable Play Protect but I repackaged your app and installed pretending it as it was installed by PlayStore (screenshot).
Now it runs ok and Play protect does not complain
I have just an observation about the main screen. Buttons don't fit to my display (probably since I use enlarged text) and there is no way to scroll and to read the cut-off part on the right side.
Screenshot attached
The other Material screens I tried were ok
Thank you for the feedback @zgfg
Just reworked the installation instructions,
now pointing users to KingInstaller to install the app.
I'll try to figure out a fix to make the UI display correctly on enlarged screens.
However, scrolling up/down appears to work when I enlarge my screen
What's the difference between Classic, Default and Material3? Do you have screenshots?

Classic launches AA with the 'classic' design, Material3 with the Material 3 design - screenshots
I suppose Default can make Material to become default style for the future launches (not necessarily from this launcher) but I don't want to wipe AA data to test

Classic = The old / default user interface.
Material3 = The new / hidden / experimental user interface.
Check the attached files for comparison screenshots.

XLauncher Unlocked is a separate app which doesn't modify any Android Auto related things (files/settings).
It simply launches existing / hidden Android Auto screens with root / ADB commands.
And if using the Xposed module, then it will also hook into an existing Android Auto function,
to run some additional code behind it, to make some of the "installed as Google Play" checks always come back as valid, which does not modify the AA app itself.
Due to the nature of the implementation of the features,

I know, you've reported this earlier, v2.0 is not optimized to handle screen enlargement.
Work Around - GUI cropped on enlarged screens
To make the GUI display correctly, please open your Settings app and go to:
Display => Display size and text => Display size => Reduce the size by a few clicks.
Restore the Display size again once you're done playing with XLauncher Unlocked
and once you have a default "launch option" configured.

Thank you very much for the screenshots.
I thought the app will change the Android Auto view in the car. But the app changes the Android Auto phone app. Thank you very much for the clarification.
Maybe I missed in the menus... Is it possible to have the option to switch on/off CoolWalk view in the car
It is possible by AA AIO Tweaker but I don't know is it just some setting for AA or AIO Tweaker has to tweak the AA db
New v2.0.1 release is out which fixed the non-scroll-able Debug "launch options" section on enlarged screens!
You can download it from GitHub: https://github.com/Rikj000/Android-Auto-XLauncher-Unlocked/releases/tag/v2.0.1

It's not possible with AAXLU (Android Auto XLauncher Unlocked),
but afaik it should be as simple as renaming following file at
/data/data/com.google.android.projection.gearhead/files/phenotype/shared/
- From: com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb
- To: com.google.android.projection.gearhead.pb.bak (Or smth similar, al long as the original "doesn't exist")
Then close Android Auto / reboot.
That file is at least what was required to make CoolWalk / TaskBar-Widgets work / appear on MicroG.

Thanks a million for this app/ Xposed module. All I needed was to make "unauthorized apps" to work, and until recently, the only way to do that was cumbersome phenotype.db edits with triggers (battery drain!) and wiping AA data.
Working perfectly for me, count me in for a follower/ tester/ anything I can do to help!
News/update, only for MicroG users:
aaxlu (v2.0.1) now comes pre-included with aa4mg (v0.6)
If you manually installed aaxlu before,
then please uninstall aaxlu, before you install aa4mg v0.6.

I think I must be missing something. I have root and the lsposed module installed etc. I have Screen2Auto installed but the app isn't visible in Android Auto. What are the steps to get third party apps to work? Thanks
Edit: more info. Have magisk, zygisk and lsposed module activated

S2A is by far the most restricted app.
I've posted all restrictions/by-passes which are within my knowledge in the S2A thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...r-root-devices.4062787/page-147#post-88392893
With those steps I've been able to get S2A showing up reliably.
Maybe I've missed something but what is the purpose of this app, other than to change the look of AA settings? What other 'hidden' features does it show, other than to be found in Developer settings? Thanks.
