Lock screen effect on Android 4.2.2 - android

I would like to ask if it would be possible to emulate the lock ripple effect (in the lockscreen) inside an app.
I need this effect for displaying it in the touch event. It is very similar to the incoming call effect.
Is there an easy way? Do I need to create a custom effect?
Thank You.
Edit:
I found the ic_lockscreen_handle_normal.png file for implementing the lock, but I'm not able to find where it's used. What's the file for the lockscreen handle?

yea lot of projects which does this,
for example you could use the following project which enables the water ripple effect

Tasker : create a bubbled floating windows?

What i wanted to do, and didn't find any suitable solution, is :
create a scene in tasker (no problem on doing it :) )
display this scene on overlayed mode on other app (ex: waze,). Overlay is mandatory (as i know but i am maybe wrong) to let's the underlayed application work and refresh screen normally
allow interaction with button on the scene, just like we can do it if i choose the dialog mode for my scene. The problem with dialog mode is that the underlayed apps screen does not refresh.
In fact what i wanted to to is to display some button when i am running waze, to allow me to sens ETA Sms to my wife, or skip to the next track on my musics apps, or close waze quickly.....
As a resume i want to do what is
create floating windows like offered by apps like Overlays
but only using tasker
Best regards
Best

Creating custom android keyboard NOT from scratch (modify system keyboard)

What I need is to add a custom key to android keyboard. I know I can implement my own keyboard but implementing all the functionalities (dictionary, swipe, microphone button etc) sounds like a lot of work. I see two solutions:
modify system keyboard (I expect it not to be possible, but it's
sometimes good to ask :))
create my own keyboard but somehow deriving it from existing one
Is any of these possible? Any other ideas?
After an investigation, answers are:
not possible

blurring behind a popup in Cordova app on Android

How can I set up a popup window in an Android Cordova application to have a blurred background? The content behind it will not be known in advance, and may contain both images and other components from multiple sources. It will not necessarily only appear over a single image. The effect I'm looking for will look something like this:
Things I've investigated so far:
The approaches described in the answers to Background blur with CSS, which tend to rely on having the background already available as an image (e.g. here's a modification of the accepted answer that shows that only the background image gets blurred, and that any text placed on top of the background is lost by the effect), or use the CSS property backdrop-filter which isn't currently implemented on Android's web view component.
Using html2canvas and similar approaches to generate an image then blurring the image. This sort-of works, but is too slow to use on complex layouts on low end phones, resulting in an unacceptably long delay before the popup appears.
Is there another approach that can make this work?
If you use crosswalk-plugin for android, add --enable-experimental-web-platform-features to XWALK_COMMANDLINE, then you can use backdrop-filter, but It still have some bug. you can test this feature in you chrome, open chrome://flags and open enable-experimental-web-platform-features.
Did you try svg filter?
Maybe this can help you https://www.w3schools.com/graphics/svg_fegaussianblur.asp :)

Can't find information on how to add to this element, Android

[SOLVED = I can't add to it, it's based on the active ROM]
Sorry for the vague questioning, I wasn't sure quite how to create it.
I'm wanting to add toggle buttons, or at least other elements into this part of android;
I can't find any documents on how to add to this element of Android, and I'm wondering if we actually can? Does anyone know what this element is even called and can link me to the appropriate android doc?
Thanks!
This is an application that ships with Android, hence you cannot change its behavior. It has a predefined set of elements that can be present on it. If you want to create a custom version of it, you will need to create a custom ROM.
This looks similar to the quick settings screen on my Samsung and it created by the phone manufacturer. You could create a custom ROM, but I don't think this is what you really want.
The closest I think you can get is the notification bar, which can use a custom layout:
Change Notification Layout
Also Take a look at the WatchOn app, which has a relatively complex control embedded into the notification screen:

Enabling Multi-Touch/MultiClick

I am simply wondering how to enable multi touch when developing applications. I've googled it and these are the only things that show up
http://www.zdnet.com/blog/burnette/how-to-use-multi-touch-in-android-2-part-2-building-the-touch-example/1763?tag=mantle_skin;content
Multiple button presses for Android 2.x
I haven't had any luck with these, and it seems like the way to enable multitouch could (Might) have changed since then. All I want to do is be able to click more than one button at a time (think of a drum pad like function, for example). Thanks in advance
You do not need to "enable" multi-touch. It's there ready for you write code with. My answer to this question has an example of programming with the touch/multitouch API.
