Get locked / unlocked status from another app

[frmz]

Hi! In my live wallpaper i am currently using "KeyguardManager.inKeyguardRestrictedInputMode()" to understand if lockscreen is currently displayed or not however my users are reporting that this is not detected correctly in ACDisplay while it works without issues in standard lockscreen, should i add something else to support ACDisplay too?

It should be fine on KitKat or lower, but won't work correctly on Lollipop or higher. At this moment, there's no way to fix it.

Wow, that's quick. Any way to provide a broadcast on lock/unlock? Shouldn't be too much of a security issue and its a cheap workaround. I see a lot of users moving away from ACDisplay just because of this.

P.S. just curious, what's the issue on Lollipop? is that a bug?

Any update?

@frmz no, cause I'm too busy to work on the app.

Here you go. Now AcDisplay broadcasts those intents: "com.achep.acdisplay.STATE_START", "com.achep.acdisplay.STATE_RESUME", "com.achep.acdisplay.STATE_PAUSE", "com.achep.acdisplay.STATE_STOP".

Great!
