Notification Centre

Hey, I dropped my phone and cracked the bottom portion of gorilla glass,so i am using this app to make that bottom portion black.The bottom margin works fine with apps but not with notification Centre. Any idea? and while changing the phone to landscape mode,margin too changes to landscape. Is there any fix?

I think it would be the best if the apps allow at least two one-handed modes to toggle, i.e. the user can set one for left bottom, and another one for right bottom, the users who sometimes use phone with left hand but sometimes with right hand can enjoy more by toggling between these three mode (normal mode, one-handed mode 1, one-handed mode 2).

I really hope this function can be put into your planned feature, thank you very much;)

Do you plan support pop-up wndows/messages, lock screens?
Upset that actually not all apps are supported. For Sony Xperia Z1 compact, for example, incorrectly rendered the dialer and camera (lock screen, home screen had to be replaced by others).. Sorry status bar, keyboard and navigation bar are not changed. Screen rotation is not correct. Already bought ( .
 
I had been using this module for a while, and I didn't know there was a donation option, but I have discovered it at last. Great app!

Has the VPN issue been resolved, though? I see others have brought this up earlier in the thread: with One-handed Mode enabled in Xposed, all VPN apps (seem to) cease to work in Android. The reason is that the pop-up asking you to trust the VPN application, such as Tunnel Bear or Hideman, cannot be displayed while One-handed Mode is enabled in Xposed. The screen flashes for a split second, but no pop-up. I need to disable One-handed Mode and reboot, before I can connect to a VPN server.

Do you think a solution is possible at all? Or should we give up either VPN or One-handed Mode?

I use an LG G2, Kitkat 4.4.2, Xposed 2.7 experimental 1, ROM is CloudyG2 (latest version).

VPN issue hopefully resolved

This has been reported many times I'll look into it tonight, I probably should have before

I found a issue where this module causes some conflict with my VPN service (tunnelbear). For some reason when this module is activated the VPN pop-up dialog box will not appear (the one that asks if you trust this VPN yadda yadda) making it impossible to use the service. Shame because I really like this app but the VPN is more important to me. :crying:

It seems that you need to add VPNDialogs (com.android.vpndialogs) to the apps black list and the relevant security pop-up will start to show up again. That's what worked for me.

Hopefully this helped.

Ah, perfect! Thank you. I had bought the premium version, but I didn't know it contained new functions. I have tested blacklisting the VPN Dialog, and it works! Yay!

Thanks for the app. Works great. I have one small problem though. Trying to use the toggle activity always launches the settings app instead of just toggling the state. Does anyone else see this? For example, if you create a nova or lmt launcher activity shortcut to the one handed mode toggle activity, and click the activity shortcut, it toggles one handed mode, but also launches the one handed mode settings. I don't think it should launch the settings.


Edit: strange, it seems to have suddenly stopped opening the settings when I toggle with the activity now. So nevermore for now I guess.

I've had this happen too. But it doesn't happen all the time, it fluctuates. My solution was to make a Tasker app (export a Tasker task as an app). The task uses the plug-in Secure Settings to trigger the right toggle activity from Onehand Mode.

Then settings activity is launched if you toggle while the onehandmode app is in the recents app list

May I get help? All the presets do the same bottom right preset. I can't pick a different one nor put in a custom setting. The only place it DOES work is in the notification menu.
Please help. This app is the only reason I rooted my phone.
Also, may someone explain to me what the difference is between the free version and the premium version?

Your issue is strange I've never seen it before. Try editing the values manually and don't touch the preset button, and then go back to save
In the premium version you can blacklist apps and you can also have different settings for each app

It works on Nexus 6P, but there are some flaws:

- If you use the color option, you get many messages, that the app (OneHandMode) was closed. So you can't use that feature.
- Chrome shows some content and graphic glitches outside of the shrinked app - it works but it's not looking good.
- Status and button bars are not shrinked.
- Keyboard is not shrinked.

I don't know if some of those problems are the expected behavior or something specific to Android 6.

Thanks for the reply. I went with a different module called niwatori. It has most of the same issues but it doesn't force close and it can open and shrink the notification drawer, which is all I need from the status bar.

About Premium

Premium version will now (as of version 2.5) require the free version to stay installed. The free version will act as the actual mod (this is what you tick in the Xposed Installer) whereas the premium version will be the settings page. Ignore the free versions setting page

This is because I can no longer distribute the mod part as a separate package (Play Store policy)

This works but only on the home screen, once you go into any other apps its just the normal screen size.

    Hello,

    This is a general reminder to all, please stop asking for ETAs. It's rude and bad etiquette. Making mods is not a full time job and people are doing this work in their spare time for free. The least you all can do is be patient. People have lives that don't revolve around this website and/or creating these mods. Harassing developers for the next update will not make them work faster. It will most likely make them do the opposite. Instead of this becoming a cool pastime for them it will become like a job for a bunch of unappreciative, needy, and entitled folks. Having to do anything for people like that isn't fun for anyone. So again, please be patient and you will get updates whenever the developer is ready to give them to you.

    Regards

    Development update

    So it's been a while since the last update, 2.1

    Some followers of this thread will be aware that I am trying to get solid background working
    Here is what's going on

    Currently, if i open an app, lets say Chrome, then toggle OneHand Mode (OHM) on then it will put solid borders around it. This is what i wanted and is good
    The problem is, when i switch off OHM, from within Chrome (using the notification) the border DOESN'T disappear, so the content goes back to normal size, but is partly covered by the border.
    You need to close and re-open Chrome

    I might be able to fix this in a minute. Maybe itll take an hour. Maybe a day. Or a week. Or a few. i can't say

    This post was just so you know i haven't given up on this module, I am still working on it ;)
