Themes / Apps / Mods [APP] Arc Lighting - Notification Light for Galaxy S22 ultra

[zzcool]

i have tested this app on the s22 ultra and it works perfectly even the aod works do not use override as it no longer is necessary, note that the s22 ultra is not officially supported so you will have to go in cutout settings and adjust the positioning and size of the ring, this is finicky but it's possible, these are all issues that were worked on before, the app has a tendency to crash when adjusting the position.

Arc Lighting adds a highly customizable ring of light around the camera cutout of your phone. You can use this light with various indicators such as audio visualization, notification lighting, critical or low battery warnings, as well as a charge indicator. The ring can also appear on your Always-On display. (to make aod work you need to make sure you have downloaded always on amoled and activated it, you also need to make sure samsung stock aod and samsung edge lighting is disabled under samsung display settings you also need to make sure that aod is enabled under arclighting with override set to off)


Features:

- Highly customizable lighting for holepunch devices. Select a variety of colors, animations, and styles.
- Always show ring with various gradient effects (add multiple colors and make them spin for a visual experience)
- An adjustable glow effect that can be turned on or off
- Notification lighting both when the display is on or off (update planned for only the lockscreen or only inapp)
- Music lighting that syncs the light to your music
- Battery indicator lighting for charging, low and critical battery states. (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appear)
- Device overheating indicator for gamers and power users (note it will not work until you configure the zones you want the colors to appear)
- Arc Lighting can be configured to match the color of your wallpaper, the app you're currently in, or both!

This app requires certain permissions to function correctly.

Accessibility: This permission is used for the ring to appear over your lock screen, always-on display, and for accessing the color of the current app you're in. This permission is required for the app to function properly.

Draw Over Other Apps: This permission allows the ring to show on top of other apps. This permission is required for the app to function properly.

Microphone Access: This permission is used to analyze the internal device audio for the music lighting. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to enable the Audio Visualizer indicator for the ring.

Storage Access: This permission is used to get the color of your wallpaper. You will not be asked for this permission unless you choose to use the color of your wallpaper for the ring.

Notification access: This permission is used to change the color of the ring after notifications

Burn-in concerns: Some Android displays may suffer from mild burn-in if a single item is displayed on the screen for an extremely significant amount of time. If you are concerned about this, feel free to enable the rotation animation in ring settings. That will ensure the display is constantly changing. Alternately, you can disable the default effect to only show the ring while an indicator is being triggered. Note: Samsung Galaxy devices come with burn-in protection that moves the pixels a little each time.

Hey zzcool would I be able to get a code from ya for gs22 ultra thanks man, and sorry to hear about your friend.

 

[the_scotsman]

Looks like a really nice app.

Has anyone experienced any kind of burn in with it? That would be a bit of a concern for me using this app.

Yes the original owner of this account unfortunately passed away due to Covid last year, I am a family member (cousin) who has taken over the account and ensuring the work he was working on is either finished and or passed back to the original owner. I would also appreciate you removing the deceased full name from the post @zzcool

There is no burn in, the animation fades in and out as well as a colour changing rotation.

Unsure why you feel the need to keep mentioning this.

the name has been removed i meant no disrespect i just wanted to honor him for the help he gave me i also thought he deserved to be mentioned on xda as he was a known member here i didn't think straight, and apologizing for doubting him, in the past when he stopped responding after i paid him i received a mysterious email claiming they have my sourcecode and that they wish to sell it to me, i made a thread about this on xda which plenty who are aware of this app probably read i didn't name him but i am sure some knew him and thats what i was trying to correct to take back anything i said saying i thought i got scammed and this is guilt that hurts right now as i didn't know, it had been months i didn't know what was happening, i didn't doubt him until suddenly someone emails me trying to sell me the code, i waited months for him and didn't think any of it.

i apologize for doubting him and i have felt bad about this ever since it happened which i told you in the original email that i sent to you, i have been scammed a lot by many i wasn't thinking straight and for that i apologize and have apologized multiple times i hope you forgive me as i didn't know, hence why i wanted to take this thread to mention it to correct my original assumption it was meant as an apology not the other way around.

i didn't mean any of this and i hope you know that he was a good friend and i enjoyed working with him he also was very compassionate it wasn't just work with him i enjoyed the time i spent knowing him i miss him

Hello. Sad news. My condolences.

Thanx for keeping this going, though.

Still possible to get a code for

Thanx for the replay

 

[BaGRoS]

Could I also ask for the code to the programme?

Kind regards.

 

[chillsen]

Would love to try the code please

 

[addictedC]

Would it be possible for you to also send me a code for the S22?

Also, thanks for taking over the project and my condolences. I recently recovered from COVID and I can attest that I hope no one ever has to go through it.

 

[JonSCSL]

Are you taking questions about the app or suggestions?

 

[Thepedrosos]

My condolendes ❤
Can i try it please?

 

[zzcool]

Are you taking questions about the app or suggestions?

well i am not sure of the future of the app currently but yes i am taking suggestions some things that i already know needs to be done or well not all of them it's just ideas i wanted originally on this app

realtime toggle needs to be removed as you have to manually turn it on or off, and the positioning system needs to be simplified, right now it's extremely finicky to adjust the position, positioning also needs to be possible despite a phone being supported, basically you have a menu you enter for positioning which makes the circle a clear color with an easy to adjust menu so rather than a menu mixed with everything else you get an isolated menu that turns off the ring and makes it a solid color, once you exit that menu the realtime toggle will be off.

some bugs
glow causes the ring to be frozen white very old bug
music light sometimes works sometimes not, some indicators makes the others turn off entirely i don't know how this works exactly i just know some make the others turn off.
crashes when adjusting position of the ring
sometimes the ring just stops working at which point you have to force restart it and redo the accessability permission

homescreen/app ring rather than just always show ring, so you can have the ring behave a specific way on the homescreen and inapp as well as everywhere so the ring can become a wallpaper addition, these features were already in my arc lighting navbar app so maybe this can be ported considering arc lighting was built off the navbar sourcecode

landscape issues this is a very known bug something that has an unknown cause as landscape works for me on my s22 ultra sometimes sometimes not

adding indicator options for each color so you can have color segments doing what you want like for example if you have one color spinning around then this one handles notifications while a color on the other side of the ring handles something else, this was an advanced idea though and not something i expect to be implemented.

turning off various app notfications right now you have to set it to transparent to turn it off.


not saying any of this will be done it's just what i wanted with the app originally
