abe
for voice access you specified an activation button (in the settings) I hope (the back key is good for it). also get rid of the worthless voice access symbol which is on every screen (deactivate in the settings)

chaimontherun If the owner sent it out it shouldn't be stealing.

But it's avlb now in the app section to download.

Myi Right but the admins post was before that.
Is the one in the app section the same one?

L-B somehow if i set the camera button i simply cant use the camera button anymore for taking pictures
no matter if i set it for long press or double tap

is it working by you fine?

Myi can you tell me how? i dont see such a setting

L-B

abe
no sorry i set other functions for single press of camera anyway (i have it set to open the apps4flip launcher on single press) as i dont plan on taking any pictures with this phone and if i do need to i can get to the camera from the menu

chaimontherun You have to ask someone that paid for the program for you to know if the info that's avlb is the same as the one on the site.

Techgen

Myi Admin said its the same one thats on the site, and that one looks like its modeled after the open source one from Virresh

Techgen I hear, guess if I get a few minutes will try it on the exalt, Kyocera and lg classic/wine.

Has same problem as many other people. Deleted voice access completely, but the phone still announces all incoming calls. I went to accessibility settings (LG Classic) and turned "Readout" on, and then off again and that worked, but as soon as I did that the Apps4Flip cursor lost all accessibility permissions. Something seems to be intertwined with the application using the accessibility hack (apparently through readout), it also enables some components of the readout feature...

so someone has to tell us how to uninstall this readout

L-B

yteps
I think there are instructions for uninstalling readout somewhere else on this blog but i'm afraid to try

L-B Run a cmd list command and see if anything of the like comes up and try installing it.

L-B

I seem to have found it (after uninstalling some other stuff which didn't accomplish anything and which I truly hope I wont regret)
the package is com.lge.tts.sfplus
if you uninstall via pm uninstall -k --user 0 it no longer announces. I take NO ACHRAYUS

L-B Not that much to regret other than having to wipe and restart and kill an hour resetting the phone with all your apps.

But thanks for being the ginny pig to test it for us. I appreciate that. Upvote well deserved.

L-B I take it you used webabd?

L-B

Myi
yes

Hey all. An update has been pushed by @BoruchAdler to the cursor app. It now contains a way to disable scroll mode, a new way to enable the permission it needs without adb on non lg phones, and other improvements. We were unable to test it or review, but feel free to download it from the main site and post your feedback here.

Apps4Flip-Admin Thanks for the update. So I would assume it won't go into enter select mode being that there's no scroll mode.

Techgen

L-B That would explain why I never had the issue with the XP3. Btw when testing these stuff you can try adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 and then if anything goes wrong you can reenable

L-B so whats the adb to uninstall it ?
pm uninstall -k --user 0 or com.lge.tts.sfplus?

L-B got it! it worked! thanks so much

L-B wow finnaly i took off that annoying readout

if you are so good with the commands maybe now try to figure out how to remove voice access and mouse from staying all the time in the notifications
im sure there is a way to do it thru the adb commands

Apps4Flip-Admin

Myi It appears so.

The scroll mode is now a toggle, so if it is disabled then it should not go into the enter mode

L-B

leiby
No sorry I'm not that good i just googled it and found that the reading out is called tts (text to speech) and then i searched the phone for a package that had tts in it and tried it. Someone who really knows their stuff has to work on the notification annoyance

abe you can set the single press to open camera

Apps4Flip-Admin how can you scroll if there is no scroll mode?

most pages u need to scroll and in mouse mode u cant scroll

leiby voice access you can turn off the notification with the settings app from here xxdeafgirl but the mouse you cant because its a system notification not the app

Techgen

mg5077 by the sonim it works by going to apps and notifications, show system and turning notifications off for android system and back on. Is there such a thing in that settings app?

Techgen no you don't have an option to turn off the system notification

@L-B
I know how to disable permanent notifications on phones (ex. the weather "widget" ), but the problem with specifically the voice access and mouse apps, is that they don't display their own permanent notification through their own package (because it isn't them, it's the system notifying you that someone is using special privelages), rather it's through the "system notifications". So I can tell you how to disable those, but then notifications like charging, usb debugging, file transfer, low battery, possibly bluetooth files, and other system notifications will also be disabled. Soooooo...

Apps4Flip-Admin

Once you have an ADB Shell run cmd appops set android POST_NOTIFICATION ignore

Apps4Flip-Admin Will that ignore all Notifications or only mouse and Voice Access?

Techgen

yteps on my phone (XP3) for the mouse it worked to turn off system notifications, and when I turned it back on it stayed off, so maybe people can try your way to turn off system notifications and then turn it back on and see what happens. Also for voice access turning off notifications for voice access worked

Techgen how did u turn off system notifications?

Apps4Flip-Admin will that turn off all notifications? or just the mouse and voice acesss??

Techgen

abe On the sonim xp3 you can go to settings apps and notifications, and in the notification settings when you see all the apps press the option key (top left) and press show system, then you'll see Android system on the list

L-B is your voice access still working properly after doing this command?

im not sure its related to this but my voice access started to maker problems since yesterday
like when im trying to type messages with it suddenly it will number everything in messages
also it will only listen for what i say the first time then once its typed even the 3 dots are still on top it will not listen anymore to what i say, sometimes it will pop up on top please update your google

L-B

leiby
Oy I do see that it only listens for the first time by me too. Oh well... (the other issues I haven't noticed)

L-B so u do notice that after the command it only listens for the first time?
when before it was listening all the time

just wanna make sure i know from where the problem comes from

L-B when u go into messages (to type a message) you have numbers displayed on the left side screen?

L-B

leiby
Im not sure what you mean

L-B

L-B
when i press my voice access button it does number all the stuff on the screen but it always did that

L-B even in messages? like when you type a message the screen will have numbers on it?

L-B

leiby
yes before it would listen again. It sure does seem to be from this command

L-B my question was if you also notice that after doing the command to stop the calling out the incoming calls, it will make voice access just listen to you the first second and not all the time the 3 dots are on top?

L-B

leiby
I just tried on my wifes phone which I didnt run the command on and its exactly the same as mine as far as numbering the stuff on the screen in messaging

got you

so looks like this command does make some damage at least to voice access
