Tried in dark :( really makes no difference..I mean those edges did not add to anything useful for now...As our phones do not have these edges from where these light can really protrude...But a really good try to achieve something which is so new :)

Really interesting, week done. Downloaded to LgG2 and the App displays the notification, however it doesn't work when I actually call the phone.

Well...indeed if the phone is side down, the screen is totally covered (we have no s6 edge with rounded edges xD) anyway, i plan to add it to notifications, for example, when you get a whatsapp notification, your edges will glow green for a little, for facebook will glow blue and so on... also, i will add an option where you can set a color for uknown callers (with unkonwn number or not stored in contact list).
What is more, i plan to add the rest of the edge features like you can have in s6 edge home screen, those slide screenies.

which android version? when a call is ringing it doesnt show up? when you open the app, does the edges appear?

It works when go into the app itself - it just doesn't work when I call the phone! I'll try it on my Note.

Nevertheless, I think this kind of thing is fantastic. Well done.

Working on Note 4 Qualcomm with LP 5.0.1

¡Funciona! :good:
With a transparent case that elevates the phone a little when it's face down, the effect is visible but because all the other screen colors the contact color is not clear... but a good idea!

Thanks!

Making the strippes width higher improves the glow...but what is most interesting is at night, or low light, where you can see who is calling with the glow color from distance xD

Great Work!
In Galaxy S2 NFC (i9100P) with CM12 works correctly.

I hope you can add in near future some other features like selection of different effect and color for different app (and why not multiple notification like in the screenshot below) and more other features.

I plan to add other apps notifications....need to find a good way to show them without making it messy.



New version released!!
Option to set color for each of your contacts added (need deep test of this features, as there are tons of phone number types and might not work in all cases)

    Hello!! recently viewed the samsung galaxy s6 presentation.......and saw the new features (not much to see actually...)
    Well, so i decided to start a new proyect to "clone" the s6 edge border color notification when calling (next versions will include the contacts feature too).
    This first version is the very first one, just a color for incoming calls...next version contact color will be available.

    Google Play url for automatic updates:

    Write back your thoughts and opinions!!!
    Feedback is welcome!

    Anyone willing to translate to his language? here is the string.xml file, example:
    <string name="side_bars">Side bars</string>
    to spanish:
    <string name="side_bars">Bordes laterales</string>
    thx!!


    Latest Stable Version: 1.1.18
    Code:

    - Fixed notifications not showing after some time since app started (Android killing the process and not restarting it).
    - Improved code to run less time and prevent unnecessary checks.
    v 1.1.17
    - Apps Edge available as a first approach.
    - Remade App Icon
    - People Edge Animation is smoother.
    - Cleaned code to improve battery and ram usage.
    - People Edge SMS option to previw sms.
    - Changed People Edge floating tabs behaviour to tray to make them always visible, but sometimes it can hides...just open the app or turn screen off/on
    - French and Finnish translations and more things!


    Download attached.

    Works as intended with Screen lock permission enabled, but it disabled my swipe unlock on Galaxy Note 3. It no longer asks me to swipe to unlock. Forced to use pattern lock now. Could be a bug. Waiting for People tab :D Thank you so much :good:

    I set the app to auto unlock non-secured lockscreens, i guess that i will make it so if you check "tap to open" it will disable it but not if this option is not checked. This week i am releasing the version with the notification update, and then focus on people edge

    Long time!! got a little bussy with other life things....but already started a few weeks ago a revamp of the app notifications and already started the people edge (working on animations......i hate them, i am so bad animating xDD)

    Sorry. First, my phone screen was off. Then I had a notification for an sms (handcent sms app), so I click on the notification icon shown by Edge app. After reading & closing the message, then closing my screen, after the defined interval (1 minute) the notification icon keeps appearing again. When this happens, I tried pressing the 'turn off notification" red button in the edge app, but it still keeps happening. Until now the notification keeps appearing.

    could you try the version attached in this message?
