Update Zip to enable DT2W on Huawei / Honor devices - Honor 8 Guides, News, & Discussion

If you are using a Huawei / Honor device without DT2W (double tap to wake), you can enable it using this zip file (apply from TWRP).

Have you tried it for the honor 8?

we need a kernel to support dt2w

I tried it, the option shows in settings but only DT2S works on lockscreen. When i try to DT2W nothing happens. Probably kernel related. I know that we have fingerprint for unlock...but could be nice to use this feature, after all almost every huawei device has it. We have to hope in a custom kernel...someday

I use the 'ALWAYS ON DISPLAY' app from the playstore, supports dt2w, a feature I've grown quite faint of since owning a LG before this phone... It's a way to get it back plus the always on display from the s7/s8

Hi there,
How much does it shorten the battery life? Obviously the phone is not sleeping when this is on and unlike oled, the LCD requires backlight to be on to work.
Also can you choose another style? I'd like something more minimalistic if I were to use it.

I too would like to know how much battery resorses this app needs?
Please tell us more about your experiance with this app and dt2w

It does have several other modes, some of which are definitely more minimal...
As for battery life I can't really complain of a huge difference. Especially with root because this app works great in conjunction with Greenify, also helps to keep the brightness turned down low, and pocket mode enabled (turns screen off when proximity sensor is covered). All in all it does seem to very from day to day tho. Some days I can't even tell that it's affected my battery life whatsoever, and some days I can tell that it does somewhat. But never go the point that I reconsider it's worth. To me it's a no Brainer!

Thanks @BigBrad75

I'm actually using it right now. So far, I like it a lot (especially the whole Angry Birds theme, I'm really into cheeseball themes
But, I'm trying to figure out why my wifi isn't working. In logcat, wifi fails with a message "wpa_supplicant failed" or something like that (eating right now, too lazy to copy + paste log message verbatim). If I get wifi working, this rom is a keeper!

Should you use this as a daily ROM? I think yes. This is the most mature ICS rom Samsung has released, with 97% of things working. There will be people who don't like TWlauncher, but it's just a matter of haters gonna' hate. Besides, there will probably be a lot more people complaining if things were drasticaly changed.

In previous alpha builds the gallery would freeze up on me viewing pics and videos. Do you see any lagging or have any weird force closes yet?

What's horizontal swiping like?
The LPB kernel on CM9 works great, with the exception of a much longer swipe being required to go from screen to screen.
Edit: should add the GPS module works as it should on LPB as well.
Thanks a lot for saving my work. Please update it with more points, it will help us all.
No, gallery very smooth. And I have lots of pics.

Tool: Analyse your battery drain.

Hello all,
Here is my 2 cents contribution to all the people that are wondering why their batteries are out in 10 hours!
I would like to share my tool, and maybe get help with my code if people are interested.
This goal of this app is to help you to detect what is going wrong with your battery by displaying values of the drain. It will never analyse or detect an app!

This is pretty cool.
I was getting tired of calculating battery per time.
Maybe it would be better if it record battery usage per time.
(ex , partial wakelock)
just downloading and testing
thanks
Downloading, will give it a shot
Useful app and a good start.
cool i will give it a whirl and see how it goes..
Cool app, will test it and see, if I can help with ideas.
Great. I wanted to compare battery drains in using different kernel or different cpu scaling governor. I think your app will come in handy. Thanks...

I probably have the wrong end of the stick, but when I searched for it by application title, it didn't appear. So instead I searched for it using Waze_Be and found it in the list.

Looks nice. Could we have an alarm that warns you when battery draw is higher than normal (only when the screen is off)?
My phone sometimes starts sucking power when my Exchange connection goes haywire. I'd love to be warned that it's in a high-draw situation instead of it just going dead.
I installed it on my Transformer Prime. So far, so good. Around 2/3 of the time under 1%/hr of battery usage.
Would be nice, if you would add a "min/mean/max" CPU usage for the time period of possible. Basically, instead of only collecting time/battery percentage, you could collect other system useful data.
And why not, trying to figure the "charging speed". This would also be nice, I suspect some of my USB chargers to be less efficient/fast.
And... It might be possible to detect batteries that will soon die! Above average %hr... I have a lot of ideas for you.

Go Launcher HD for Tablets v1.0 Beta

I just stumbled across this today and so far I really like it. I was using the Trebuchet launcher on Thor's ICS v96, and although it does have a lot of customization it is slightly laggy. So far Go Launcher HD is running super smooth with no noticeable lag.

It appears there is very minimal options available (It is a BETA, I will forgive them)
Themeing is not a option, yet.. Maybe keep an eye out.
I like the new dock, but they need to use more of the screen for available widgets, utilizing ALL of the screen.
I can compare say, Stock Launcher, to GoLauncher Ex, where the margins on the side are smaller, giving more space, maybe I am insane. At this stage, I have set up something, but I am not a huge fan and will go back to GoLauncherEX until they sort out the theme issue and give us more options. Hopefully they can implement all those of the normal EX and maybe some more? EG, making wallpapers work better (most of us are faced to use Multipicture Live to correct incorrect showing wallpaper)
in short, it is good, but not great.. yet. Hopefully with updates, this is fixed
It's only a beta but so far so good. I'm sure themes will be an option down the line, and I agree that the top and bottom margins are way too big.
Really like it can't wait to see what happens next really sleek and fast launcher compared to the phone ver. On tablets...

screens only show next UI's features, they are not taken from next LG's flagship.
God their ui is a mess.
guys look this
https://www.twitter.com/xach24/status/696000162381041664?p=v

			
				
so.. as expected all UI changes mentioned earlier are there on G5
.
Design is very subtle, really pretty. I like it very much
The design of the UI is something like Samsung Android 6.0 Touchwiz with white accents.
Now without the app drawer (I like it because my home screen is always empty so the home screen is useless for me and settings app looks more cleaner but they bloated with a tons of features that you use it for first time and then not use it at all.
Some people will use these features daily but the average Joe will just use the phone like any other phone. OEM needs some work to advertise these new features when you buy a new phone and the most common thing is to have it enabled by default like the active display otherwise no average user will ding down in settings to see what features does this phone has. Some will some not.

I've been seeing mentions of Dual Window being removed. Not cool.
I really like where they're going with the g5. Kinda tired of getting a flagship that just has a processor updates, some hardware updates, and maybe a few gadget apps. This modular thing could really come in handy. Seems like the options could be endless to what module they or third party can make. And wireless charging, I'm sure LG or a third party come up with something. I'll bite!

I think the only reason would be that there weren't many apps that could be used with this dual windows mode. And some rumors said that the Android N will bring us dual windows mode so it would be better and more useful (for many other apps).
