[How-To] Customize Alert Slider on One Plus Devices Using Xposed Module
Alert Slider of One Plus Devices Customizable With Xposed Module: The launch of One Plus 5 and later One Plus 5T was a huge hit among the global markets with both the devices ringing the numbers in terms of record sales. The company is all set to bring its latest flagship phone One Plus 6 into the market. But one thing that proved to be a major setback for One Plus 5 and One Plus 5T is the lack of complete functionality in the alert slider. The alert slider available on One Plus Devices, unlike Apple, can be switched to three different states namely Ringing, Vibrate & Silent.
However, the problem lies in the fact that even if a person moves the Alert Slider to Silent Mode the vibration is still on. A person has to follow a different set of steps to turn the vibration mode off as it is not done by default. Moreover, the customization options present in the device are either not enough or of no use at all. You can check the following screenshot to check the available options for the Alert Slider.
Earlier, by providing root access to One Plus device, a person used to get a variety of customization options in terms of alert slider but the same doesn’t holds now due to the merger of Oxygen OS and Hydrogen OS.
