Hi there,

I really love this app; would it be possible to have an option to replace the ROM lockscreen?

I circled the block of a few lines of text in this screenshot:

This example is from Inbox, is also happens in Hangouts (when you receive a message that only contains an image, the "Picture" text is black).

Please add a setting to disable locking the screen, or allow the sleep timers to go to 0 (meaning turning off the screen will be left to android). Rationale: android allows automatic locking as much as after 30 minutes after using the phone, which is independent of the display timeout (typically set to 30 seconds). However the current behavior of AcDisplay locks our phones even though though we don't want to lock them unless 30 minutes have passed. So such a setting will allow android to turn off the screen (which does not lock the phone).

The new mussic control has two little "issues" with the album artwork.

The fist one: The image its too blurred and you can difference between some artworks, maybe reducing the blur a little would help

Second: if you have a background and then the album artwork appear you get some sort of weird image where you cant see anything, maybe you should make the background change to the album artwork when its music playing

I use a Chromecast on a regular basis, and when a video is playing, sometimes I want to skip ahead a little without having to unlock my phone to do so. The pause and play buttons work, but not the forward and reverse buttons, would it be possible to add this functionality?

In the setting of the phone you can set a "timeout" for the phone to block, 5 minutes or so of inactivity block your phone, less of the configured doesnt block it.

The problem with AcDisplay is directly related with google policy, when a device administrator turn the screen of, the only way to do it its blocking your phone, so, everytime AcDisplay put your screen off by any mean the phone gets blocked.

I've readed that a workaround for this issue its that everytime AcDisplay turn your screen off, it also delete the password/PIN/pattern, and add it again after passed the configured time.

I've got a Note 4 running 4.4.4. Every time I get a notification from Facebook or whatever my screen turns on in my pocket and if I'm walking the phone will unlock itself with my leg and start skipping songs, rearranging my home screen etc. I'd think the app should check the proximity sensor and not turn the screen on if the sensor is covered.

This appears to be an issue with a lockscreen widget not working properly:

E.g. if the notification mode is "priority", the screen should stay off rather than waking up briefly when a notification is received. Obviously the "None" mode would have to go into that too.

I found a case where the screen isn't coming on after a notifications. What happens is I have the phone face down (or im my pocket) and hear the notification sound. I turn the phone over immediately and the screen doesn't come on (but notification icon is blinking). No matter how long I wait it never turns on. If I turn it back over (hiding the sensor) and wait a few more seconds, and then look at the phone the screen does turn on. This won't occur if I wait 5 or so seconds after the notification, in that case it works fine.

This only happens if active mode is on and "no notifications" option is off and I don't wait long enough after a notification before turning the phone over (or taking it out of my pocket). If I enable "no notifications" then the screen will come on immediately.

It seems there is a timing issue where the sensor isn't being checked immediately after a notification.

Are others seeing the same issue?

Settings
Lockscreen - off
Active Mode - on
Enabled when no notifications - disabled
Wakeup notificaitons - enabled
Low priority - disabled / enabled (doesn't matter)

This is a notification from an OTA beta testing system in one of my apps. There should be a little download icon next to the "Download" text, but it's a black icon. AcDisplay should add a white color filter to expandable action icons when the black background is enabled in order to make it visible.

I'm using AcDisplay mostly as a lock screen replacement because I think that the default active screen on Motorola reacts better and probably uses less battery(it's a native app after all). My problem is that when I unlock my phone directly from Motorolas active screen I still see AcDisplay instead of directly unlocking my phone. I believe that the bug relies on the way Motorola "quick unlocks" the screen, it actually opens the unlock screen but with some kind of unlock command that AcDisplay isn't managing correctly or just can't manage depending on how it's done.

when using tasker to enable/disable acdisplay via the provided intents the toast messages are reversed.
When is enabled the toast message shows "AcDisplay is disabled"
and when is disabled the toast message shows "AcDisplay is enabled"

I put my phone in a desktop stand so it's comfortable for me to view notifications even without touching the phone. Android auto-expands the first notification so I would like something similar from AcDisplay - to auto open either the first one or (better) the latest incoming notification. (As I use "Wake up on notification").
I already tried calling method which gets and shows the latest widget from AcDisplayFragment.updateNotificationList() and updateNotificationList.onStart() (and it works). It doesn't seem to be impossible to do though proper solution would probably require use of some queue etc.
I would really like to see an option in AcDisplay allowing such auto preview of notification without any user action.

I use the flashlight a lot more than I'd like to admit and this would be awesome. maybe like a double tap or hold down both volume buttons?

The translated string reads (this is (almost) correct)

Aktiv Modus, Sperrbildschirm

The app displays (which is not correct):

Aktiv modus, sperrbildschirm

Please see this screenshot:

Implement swipe left/right actions for fast camera/dialpad access. Enable option to turn this feature on/off.

I maintain a fork of yaaic called Atomic and want to make sure that some of my users, who use acDisplay, can get notifications from my application.

To conserve having a million and one icons, I use a service/sticky notification. Though I realize that having every one of these could lead to a horrible mess of icons in acDisplay, a whitelist would be a wonderful thing.

Hey, great app.

I have a request to add an option to not dim the wallpaper on AcDisplay.

I purposefully choose wallpapers that don't conflict with the white display text and would love for AcDisplay to respect that.

It creates a bit of a jarring display when you go from lockscreen to homescreen, and I would love a more unified display.

Thanks, devs!

Hey!

I recently upgraded to these development builds from the Play Store build and I notice that the little "timeout countdown" bar is missing. It was a series is dots that counted down the screen-on time until AcDisplay locked the phone again. It would be nice to have this back - at least as an option.

Thank you!

M.

I'm getting a lot of similar ANR dumps.

When listening to music from Amazon MP3, the lock screen is bypassed and the music player is opened automatically.

Following the shake detection changes in the latest update, my phone now wakes constantly while driving on rougher roads (California freeways are awful) with the phone charging. Would it be possible to add an option to disable shake detection entirely?

Notification appears as heads up, but doesn't display on the lock screen itself.

This is redundant and interrupts the black lock screen flow. Not sure if there's a way to prevent heads up notifications while AcDisplay is active or not.

If I set my Nexus 6 (with Lollipop) down, with active mode on, it'll wake up the screen every 5 seconds or so even when I have no notifications.

I saw the following lines in the FAQ on Google Play:

Q: I have installed this app but can't find Pocket mode. Where's it?
A: It's in my to-do list. Be patient and stay tuned.

I assume pocket mode refers to the ability of the phone to turn on the display briefly whenever it is removed from your pocket, likely using the proximity sensor and/or accelerometer.

In the Moto X, one of the low power application processors is dedicated to this task. In other devices, won't we suffer a pretty significant battery drain from keeping these sensors and the CPU active?

Also, do we have any ETA available, or a high level overview of how this feature will work? I'm a decent programmer, but I've never done Android development before, so I likely can't contribute too much out of the box. :(

I currently use AcDisplay as lockscreen replacement and figured it would be nice if AcDisplay provided an option to disable the automatic inactivity sleep timer when the phone is docked or charging. That way it could be used as a simple, nice desk clock.

Alternatively (or additionally), I suppose AcDisplay could also implement the Daydream API to provide desk clock functionality without much coding overhead.

The proximity sensor should put the screen on when is "unblocked" (i dont know what term use) and put the screen of when it is blocked for some seconds.

The issue i've found is the proximity sensor doesnt put the screen off when is "blocked", its easy to test, just put the screen on (for example with the lock button of your device) and the block the proximity sensor with your finger, you will see that nothing happen, and the phone just goes off if the time passes.

Found AcDisplay yesterday; as my Xperia Z2 doesn't feature full screen media art in the lockscreen for some reason (I am on version 4.4.4 though, but that's besides the point), this app has become my new lockscreen, and I don't really like having the beautiful album art blurred, however, I like having my launcher wallpaper blurred.
What would be nice is to have options in the lockscreen settings that allow to tweak blurring to our likings, if possible.

Nice project, love the result!

PS: Yes, I want to have a "as stock as possible" lockscreen because I love it and it's beautiful, but bootloader being locked by the carrier I can't install ROMs ... :(

Double tap locks the screen. In my case this is undesirable. I use double tap in my phone to wake the screen however this is not always reliable, so sometimes need to tap the screen multiple times to wake the phone but if not careful the phone wakes and we accidentally doubletap AcDisplay which locks the phone again. It happens to me feequently so it would be nice to be able to disable the double tap.

Alternatively, allow AcDisplay to operate without being device administrator, meaning it will perform all functions except turning off the screen. Currently AcDisplay refuses to operate if it is not device administrator.

Allow user customization of locking/unlocking tone.

Hello! i've been testing the version you've uploaded to dropbox and for now i've encountered some little bugs:

The proximity sensor its turning on the screen correctly but isnt turn it off, i mean, if the screen is on on the app (On the notification lockscreen i mean) and i block the sensor nothing happens, it supposed to turn off the screen.

The blur of the songs artwork its too hard, and sometimes its hard to make a difference between similar artworks

An old bug that still in this version: AcDisplay ignore the timeout for blocking your dispositive, in the config of the phone i've putted that the phone will block after 5 minutes if i dont use it, but when AcDisplay blocks the screen (example, when i knock twice the screen) the device locks inmediately, i've readed somewhere that this happens because the only way for an app to turn of the screen is blocking the device, and a way to bypass this issue is deleting the device password and putting it again after the set timeout.

Something like, AcDisplay have to turn off the screen, so it delete the password and X minutes later (in my case 5) it put the password, or pattern again.

Great work by the way!

I'm using AcDisplay on my LG P880 with CM11. It works fine except for notifications from the app ProxyDroid (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.proxydroid). Everytime the app disconnects from or connects to a proxy it triggers a notification. I don't want my screen to wake up for this though. Therefore, I added ProxyDroid to the blacklist.
However, AcDisplay still turns on the screen for ProxyDroid notifications. There is no notification to select on the AcDisplay screen, but the screen will be definitely turned on everytime. Other apps that work with notifications have no problem ignoring ProxyDroid.
What can I do about this? Thanks in advance!

Per title.
I'd like both an option to disable the active mode and one to disable all acdisplay.

Thanks for developing acdisplay.

When you receive a notification, hold your finger on the icon, then tap the notification itself with another finger while the first finger is still on the icon. It causes the mentionted error message.

Notifications should be forced to use white text, and white icons (setColorFilter(Color.WHITE, PorterDuff.Mode.MULTIPLY) on an ImageView or Paint instance). They should already be white on API 11 and above, but apps like Inbox have faded-looking icons.

Although I am going to give disabling low priority a try I might also like to see the ability to hide notifications from things like app store updates.

Spotify doesn't connect and show audio controls or cover art on the lock screen after I updated to Android 5.0 in my Samsung Galaxy S5

Security features such as a pin, password, gesture, and/or fingerprint are crucial in my opinion.

HTC Desire 500 JB 4.1.2 - device unlock after pressing home button. Please add option to disable this button. I know that widgetlocker has that feature. That`s why I need to use stock locksreen that protect if I press home button accidentally :)

Seems to happen when a song is done and it moves onto the next song in the queue. I'm using Lollipop on a Nexus 6.

Hi guys, great app! I hope you resolve this bug.

If I tap home button (physical button) twice, the stock lockscreen appears, can you fix it?

PS: Another thing that i've realized. Sometimes when I wake up the phone, lockscreen stock appears directly bypassing AcDisplay (I think when the phone goes in deep mode).

(from galaxy s4, 4.4.2)

Hey Artem,

I'm using a Nexus 5 on KitKat 4.4.2. While using ACDisplay, the immersive mode instructions often appear with the notifications:

Swipe down from the top to exit full screen.

I realise this is likely a KitKat issue as it seems to happen with other immersive apps, but if you're willing to investigate this SO post might be a good place to start:

• http://stackoverflow.com/questions/20075041/immersive-mode-instructions-reappear-every-time-the-device-enters-this-mode

Fantastic work, by the way. Really slick app.

Screenshot

I believe this is similar to the bug listed for Lollipop, just posting to confirm it's not just a Lollipop issue.

As a side note, is there a way I can get the previous version of AcDisplay until this bug is fixed?

It happens enough that it makes the program unusable for me.

Have to unlock acdisplay for the call to start. (Nexus 5, Stock 4.4.2, Rooted)

How about adding a feature, allowing to set any custom picture as background? Would be really nice, especially when using this app as lockscreen.
