Hook 2,940 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) On 11/18/2019 at 11:11 AM, Waxberry said: There is a know "bug": Under desktop, long press a key will launch app shortcut (quick launch apps) but short type will go to google search. However every time Google search is launched this way, the cursor will return to the left after user typed the first letter. This is the bug from Google Search app, unfortunately we have nothing to do with it. What we have considered is to have search for drawer when type under desktop, instead of launching Google Search. Related to this. A problem occurs when you assign a key to launch an app and the app opens ready for input. So I assign a key to my password locker and I end up with the password field filled with multiple instances of that letter. I open my word processor and I end up with that letter typed multiple times into whatever document, blank or otherwise, was set to open. Somehow, the software needs to stop reading the input if the key is held. I don't know how tricky that is, but I can't use this feature while this problem exists. If there isn't a workaround that I haven't figured out, I will likely go back to Nova which I have used for years. Edited December 12, 2019 by Hook Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Craig 1,435 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 (edited) To elaborate, it's not just supertux and android games, what it really matters even more for are DOS games under dosbox, console emulator games, etc. Since the keyboard doesn't recognize two buttons at once, it makes play somewhat difficult (can't run and shoot/jump/turn at same time, etc). Also the key labeled 'Esc' doesn't function as Esc, which is needed in some dos programs/games, etc. And F-keys... not sure if they're implemented somehow already.

I guess it was intended to be that way when the device is locked, so you can take a picture, but not snook in existing ones. But I agree that it is a bug when the device is currently not locked.

I think we are saying the same thing. I don't want someone looking through my photos of my locked phone through the camera button. I wouldn't want them to see the photos and I wouldn't want them to use the "share" function to open other apps and look around in those either. I wouldn't want them to see notifications from other applications if I have that set to not display on the lock screen as well (even if we aren't in the lock screen, but are in whatever app the camera button takes us to when pressed when we are on the lock screen). Basically, there shouldn't be a way to get access to any information by someone using the camera button on the lock screen that isn't visible when on the lock screen. I do want to be able to take pictures with the camera button without unlocking the screen, since the main benefit of the camera button is not having to navigate to the camera app before taking a quick photo. It is probably a tricky thing to implement all this in a way that is clean. It would be nice to be able to tap something on the screen when in the app that the camera button opens, to go to the unlock screen, instead of having to use the power button. It would also be most ideal, in my mind, to be able to have the button open whichever camera app we prefer, not just a hard coded one (the default camera app), so that we are taking pictures with our settings all ready in the app we use the most. If I end up using, for example, the google camera app for taking most of my photos instead of the stock camera app, because I prefer the way they look (this is hypothetical), then I'd be much less likely to use the hardware button for taking my normal photos and would only use it in emergency situations where I *really* want to take a photo fast (not that often). I'll start a new topic about how the button works currently, so as to not put too much in this thread. Edited December 16, 2019 by david Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gon009 70 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 (edited) Bugs: Autorotate on hardware keyboard just stopped working and I can't get it back to working, I need to manually press the rotate button every time. What is interesting, it still works in Home Screen and returning to Home Screen also aligns the screen in correct position. I think it started happening after I installed KeyMapper but even after uninstalling it the bug is still there. Rebooting doesn't work. This bug is CRITICAL and I hope will be fixed in following weeks. Also, I won't factory reset the phone after entire day configuring it and moving all the data from my old phone. Upper drop-down menu goes beyond the screen in landscape. Gesture home button is broken in portrait. When in portrait mode, trying to open app window also opens the "used apps" window or whatever it's called, it's difficult to open apps window because you need to keep your finger moving all the way to the top of the screen, it's impossible to do when holding a phone with one hand. There is no such problem in landscape. I doesn't bother me that much because first thing I do is to disable gesture button but for others it may be annoying. I don't know if it's problem of Android in general or Fxtec software Phone doesn't read my SD card at all. Sandisk SDHC 32GB Camera button doesn't work in WhatsApp Icons in camera app look pixelated and it's sometimes difficult to notice it taking a picture. There should some graphical effect to indicate a photo being taken. Edited December 20, 2019 by Gon009 removed nonbug 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I 100% agree this is is not a bug at all, but it's annoying - so much so that I bricked my phone trying to fix it, so it's not just gon009 who doesn't like it! I wanted to get rid of the quick launch icons from notifications, cuz in landscape orientation the waste a lot of the screen (and I would just use two fingers to pull down the quick settings if needed). I tried a systemui tweak and killed my phone, so I get to factory reset or wait for twrp to fix it... 1 hour ago, Gon009 said: Camera button doesn't work in WhatsApp This I think is the only known bug you actually reported. The Camera button doesn't appear to work in any camera app besides snapdragon. And longpress always opens snapdragon camera, even when another camera is default. 52 minutes ago, Hook said: if you open the camera when the screen is locked, it will not show you a thumbnail I think we've already established that it happens even when the screen is unlocked, so this is a real bug as far as I'm concerned. 1 hour ago, Gon009 said: There should some graphical effect to indicate a photo being taken. There two known bugs on stock camera app kinda related - no shutter sound, and know thumbnaisl, so I agree very hard to know when photo is taken. One workaround is to open the camera app from the icon, then at least you get thumbnails. Also other camera apps have shutter sound. But as to adding another graphical effect to the snapdragon app, that's a feature request, and you'd probably have to ask Qualcomm to add that to their camera app... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, sorry, I did get this mixed up in my head. I really have to remember to review things on my phone when trying to help. It is indeed button vs icon, not locked vs unlocked. It's just that the locked vs unlocked almost makes sense. 😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
