My plan is to do some testing with locking bootloader tomorrow and hopefully release something then. Lineage 23.1 will take a while (weeks to the first builds, months to official builds i’d guess), it is a lot of effort to port our changes after all the UI changes google did for QPR1.
Do you have some way to reproduce the bug? Which settings do you use for the slider?
Are there plans to add more functionality options for the switch?
It’s at the bottom of my priority list currently, but I’d like to add flashlight toggle support one day.
I’m open to other suggestions too and of course direct contributions are welcome as well.
Would love to see flashlight support for the yellow switch ![]()
Is the “detox mode" supported by Lineage OS at the moment or not?
No, and something like a detox mode has chances near zero to be implemented tbh. It’s just too complicated, for too little value that I doubt someone would write an open source re-implementation. As usual, open for contributions though if someone really cares ^^
Got it, no problems at all since I was mainly looking for to use it as a secondo switch for some useful features (like “toggle flashlight, camera etc on/off” or slt)
I’m going for a quick OT suggestion here now:
What about YAM Launcher? I think it’s a good compromise between a regular launcher (which it is) and that wellness mode, or whatever it’s called.
Here’s a screenshot of my only home screen. I find it nonedistracting and still useful.
YAM Launcher is available on F-Droid. And I assume it’s available on Play Store as well.
Great suggestion, thanks! My main question was about the fp6 detox menu availability on Lineage OS, but I suppose a good minimal launcher is a good alternative as well, since fdroid is full of FOSS launchers ^^
@ArianK16a Is it normal for the “Double-tap to wake” feature to wake the device up with just one tap?
Somewhat, yes. The touch driver reads 1 as single tap and 2 as double tap, but I couldn’t be bothered to implement both using a “sensor” yet and thus just hooked up the legacy power hal implementation for now, which just writes a 1.
I haven’t done Android development before, I’d be happy to try if you could point me in the direction of where to start. I’m not even sure what documentation I should be looking at ![]()
What does Apply the unmerged platform patches from the section above
from step 5 here mean?
Well, it means that you have to apply the mentioned patches to your locally cloned lineage tree.
That’s necessary because some patches were not merged to LineageOS (on lineage-22.2) and thus weren’t included in your sync.
As written in the section above, for lineage-23 you don’t need to apply any patches anymore.
There are many ways to achieve what you want and what you need to learn depends on that.
You might want to write an app which implements this simple mode, whether that’s a regular standalone app or integrated into SystemUI is up to you, but you have to write that app from scratch. Then in order to hook it up with the current moments switch implementation you need to adjust this app: GitHub - ArianK16a/android_packages_apps_AlertSlider
Can you possibly clear up the build instructions? I’m guessing android_device_fairphone_FP6 needs to be cloned into device/fairphone/FP6 but that’s not clear (and do you need to repo sync after step 2) and step 4 says to do it only if you did step 4. Thank you!
Hi,
thank you very much for your work so far.
I am concerned about the anti-rollback “feature”. Currently, my FP6 is running update FP6.QREL.15.151.0. The FP website states ‘Security patch level: October 2025’ without specifying a specific date. My device says that the Android security update is from 5 October 2025. Is this a newer security patch level than the one in your build (1 October 2025), or am I being unnecessarily precise?
Please don’t add steps to the instructions, you don’t need to explicitly clone the repo, that’s what step 2 is for. repo takes care of cloning it for you.
I corrected the typo, it was referring to step 3 of course.
It might be newer (2025-10-05? i haven’t checked), but that doesn’t matter, you can always flash to an older LineageOS version with an unlocked bootloader.
Thank you for your prompt reply. So the security patch level only becomes an issue if I try to lock the bootloader?
Yes, but note that you should under no circumstances lock the bootloader on LineageOS currently. I am working on this, but had no success yet.
