I have the 6p on 7.1.1. it is definitely turning on the accessibility. I turned it on and it was just the buttons, I turned it off and it was the new sliding option. I can repeat it over and over.

I figured you were on the Nexus 6p looks like they updated the dialer on the pixel because it no longer works that way it's just answer or decline which I'm not cool with

Mine too, however the app works whether I enable it in accessibility or not. I turned it back on in accessibility because the pop-up is annoying!

So I noticed that you can put the phone to sleep with accessibility off, but you cant toggle notifications while accessibility is off. I don't use the sleep option since I'm not rooted.

But having it on definitely changes the accept and decline call options.

    Perform quick actions via tap/swipe on fingerprint sensor.

    Demo video by @Andromjb (App version 0.4.0) (Original post)

    At the beginning, I just want to develop a simple app to sleep my device via tap fingerprint sensor. But for more users to be convenient, I decide to add more features.

    Google Pixel has a feature that expand/collapse notification panel via swipe fingerprint sensor, However detect swipe on fingerprint sensor requires hardware support, so I thought of an alternative to clicking/swiping on the Fingerprint Sensor to toggle notification panel.

    Fingerprint Quick Action use Accessibility to detect interface switching and perform some quick actions, so you need to turn on the application's accessibility features so that it can work properly.

    Fingerprint Quick Action use DevicePolicyManager API to sleep your device by default, however, in many ROMs, it will result in Smart Lock and fingerprint to unlock doesn't work, by my test, it is only works properly on MIUI ROMs. So the app provide another way to sleep your device, that is simulating a power button press, this method requires Root Access.

    When other apps using the fingerprint sensor, Fingerprint to Unlock will be temporarily disabled until you switch to another interface.

    TODO
    • Add More Quick Actions
    • Double Tap Action
    • Per Fingerprint Action
    • Xposed Implementation (Done)

    Identifying the direction of the slide and long press events requires hardware support that can not be done with the application alone.

    We will soon see this application in the play store. I applied the developer account for a long time but has not been successful. At present, I temporarily use my friend's account to release.

    I found something about the Google Dialer problems.
    Read here: https://code.google.com/p/android/i... Priority Owner Summary Stars Reporter Opened

    So its not a problem with your App, @ztc1997

    OK, I see this. I will try to make some of the features no longer rely on accessibility, and make turning on accessibility as an optional feature
