Touch Screen Fix for OnePlus One. (Notification panel opening problem during phone call)

OnePlus One's screen has some bugs. One them is BACON-347 (https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-347) The first touch in any location while a phone call, pulls down the notification panel. This app can fix notificaiton panel opening problem while a phone call.

Immersive mode without root or xposed mode. Now it is possible to prevent this bug FOREVER.

Please remember that this app only work during phone call. If you have other touch screen issues please report that bugs to OnePlus.

Until this post 500+ users installed and 43 of them gave 4.75 point for review. According to Flurry, this app fixed this problem more than 40.000 times for these 500+ users in just a month.

What is the problem: The problem is shown in the BACON-347 (https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-347). There is some ghost touch above status bar which cause to open notification panel. After first touch to screen, phone assume that these two touches releated (Your touch and ghost touch) and tell to system there is a slide from first touch to second one. This action opens the notification panel. But if the second touch is for hang up to call phone cant do that because it assume that you want to open notification.

How this app works: During a phone call, this app put a view above status bar and absorbs the effect of ghost touch(When this happened, fix count increase) After user's first touch, if user try to hang up call, app assists user and close the call. But if user touch any other position other than close button, app closes and dont open the notification panel. That is all.

How to change position of MyLocationButton on new Map API v2 - 2

In my previuos post[1], i mention a workaround for changing buttons on Google Map which we use with google services. It is good to know they listen developers and make their products more development friendly. (I hope it goes like that way all the time and all the product lines of Google) Now we have a method for setting padding of map. It is add padding to useful area of map. We can see full screen map but with padding we can use prefered area of it. It is good for overlay action bar and other things on map view. [ 2] They write a blog and take a video about it. Read blog and watch video if you are using google map in your app :) [3] And finally, They add this method because of this issue. That means, if you find a bug or want extra feature from and api, write to google via this issue tracking system.

Using Accelerometer when Screen Off

Introduction Android Phones have a lot of built-in sensor such as gyro, proximity and accelerometer. Using Accelerometer in Android is a known thing. For listening sensors, class or service needs a SensorEventListener implementation. An Activity is only exists when you are seeing it. When phone enters standby mode, activity which was recently active frozen and restored whenever needed. While this frozen time, activity doesn’t run. Because of that it doesn’t need sensor updates. And Android stop to listen some sensors for power management. Services have this condition like classes (activity). In contrast to class, a service run every time, even when phone is in standby mode. Therefore Services needs sensor updates for some situations. But android stop to listen some sensor(accelerometer) in some different phones. There is a solution for that. This is not an exact solution but it work with a lot of phones. With a BroadcastReceiver listen   Intent. ACTION_SCREEN_O
