Does the volume boost work the other way around and can you use it on system apps? I'd really like to lower the volume of incoming facebook messages and the camera shutter since it doesn't seem to be affected by changing any sounds except for silent mode.
[Android Apps and Games] Tefanym:
nice app

:good:
[Android Apps and Games] hav0c:
Great app. Any plans for releasing it in Play store?
[Android Apps and Games] unfugor:
maybe not all to exciting because cm10 is still in the experimental stage and the s2 has problematic audio to begin with, but the volume boost does not work for me on cm10/i9100. if logs are needed i can provide them
[Android Apps and Games] knochenjochen:
really great work !!

i love the volume boost :D

in my opinion the s3 is not so loud as the s2 :(

but now :D
[Android Apps and Games] blackhand1001:
Any chance of per app animator duration for this program. Apps read that value when they start and keep it until they are closed and restarted. Shouldn't be that hard to implement since they read the value on launch.
[Android Apps and Games] letters_to_cleo:
It would be great if this app could also modify system apps. I'd love to raise the volume of my default stock FM radio and Music Player. Unfortunately this app only works with user installed apps and not those that comes from stock itself.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Odd about the system apps. I've got Phone and Contacts modified to turn off rotation, so at least some system apps work.

Window animations are evil: they add latency. Everyone should always have them off. :)

Seems like a great concept, but I'm getting a LOT of FC. Seems like I can only click/touch one item before it goes black or becomes unresponsive. Running a stock, rooted, deodexed JB ROM on a Galaxy Nexus.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
If it's crashing, get catlog from Play, and right after a crash email me a log: arpruss at gmail dot com.
[Android Apps and Games] monkeychef:
Any chance of making the application look at a different build.prop on a per app basis? Currently working on modding an app that looks at that, but I haven't come up with anything.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
1. Everybody should upgrade to 0.10. 0.09 was really hogging resources due to a bug.

2. The GPS idea is great, but I can't figure out how to do it. There is an OS bug that lets you set GPS values in 2.2 and below, and on some 2.3 phones, but I'd rather have a general-purpose way of doing it. And I can't figure out how to change the GPS settings in software. If anybody can tell me how to do it, I'd love to do it.

3. Ditto the screen density and other build.prop stuff. As far as I can tell, it can only be done on reboot. setprop ro.sf.lcd_density 230 has no effect, and putting ro.sf.lcd_density=230 into local.prop has no effect without a reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I wouldn't recommend this, as it would also down-boost your ringer.

For the shutter, you can get my Earpiece app from the Market. Buried in its settings is an experimental option to severely reduce camera shutter volume. Your mileage may vary. Earpiece works by (a) downboosting the volume and (b) redirecting audio to the much quieter earpiece speaker. Moreover, it only does this during the actual camera click (assuming it works on your device), so you shouldn't have the problem of down-boosting your ringer.
[Android Apps and Games] KCuadrado:
Great idea man. I'm installing it now.
[Android Apps and Games] little-vince:
Hi! Would it be possible to add a "Always run in full screen" option?

Sometimes the notification bar can be annoying so it would be brilliant if it could hide the notification bar when the app is running.

Cheers.
[Android Apps and Games] Ticklefish:
This sounds like it could be useful.. Thanks, I'll try it on my Sony Xperia Mini Pro and my Samsung Tab GT-P1010 and I'll let you know if there are any problems. :)
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
This app is exactly what I've been looking for months. Will never understand why this is not implemented in Android.

Thank you for the app.
[Android Apps and Games] ryandigweed:
Good Tool. ! :) Definitely a good idea. Something that is verry useful :)

Good Luck with the developing :)

[Android Apps and Games] nascarrunner:
I'm on 0.10 and when I click on the app I want to change the screen darkens and asks for permission from supersu I click grants and the screen darkens and nothing comes up.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
This is on JB, right?

Can you send me a log after this happens? Since it's JB, catlog won't work for you, but you can generate a log with adb if you have adb installed.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
By the way, here's something important: If you uninstall or update PerApp, first uncheck the checkmark in it to turn it off.

If you don't do that, you'll get some orphan processes. To get rid of them, you can reboot, or you can do:

su
ps | grep logcat

and then kill them by number.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I just posted 0.11:

- added more orientation lock features: lock to OS default, lock to portrait, landscape, reverse portrait and reverse landscape (even if the app does not support this)

- bug fixes

- added warning that you should uncheck "Active" before upgrading or uninstalling or you will suffer from wasted resources.

language

Hi,

This app sounds very interesting.

I am from Switzerland. My native language is German, but i like to have my Android set to English, so it is easier to google error messages etc. But some Apps I'd like to have in German, for example Google Maps and some local Swiss Apps like the phonebook etc. Would it be possible to include the option to set the language per App in your PerApp App? (*insert Inception or Xzibit meme here*)
[Android Apps and Games] -DarkKnight-:
you don't have to listen to me:

proposed new feature: change dpi settings like in paranoid android, and change phone/tablet ui settings. tjhat would be awesome. like you can have dpi at 120, 160, 240 or any number you want
[Android Apps and Games] little-vince:
If that was easy, wouldn't paranoid have released an Android app onto the app store and made a few bucks already?

don't get me wrong, it's a great idea and all just saying it's probably uber difficult.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Yeah, it's a great idea, but unfortunately the ro.sf.lcd_density setting is only read by the system when zygote starts up, so if one changes it one has to restart zygote (basically like a reboot, but faster). I don't know of a way of doing it per-app without some serious hacking which is beyond me.
[Android Apps and Games] ryandigweed:
I was wondering if you would be able to add an option to tinker the start up of certain appa. I am using Android assistant to manage the start up items but it doesn't forcefully close apps like yahoo Hotmail etc on startup

[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Why don't you just Autostarts (it's a $1.50 in Play, but you can also download the GPL source code and build your own for free)
[Android Apps and Games] Bilgets:
maybe you can make a feature like paranoid android setting, the Per App Density!! O_o
[Android Apps and Games] little-vince:
Maybe you can read a post on this thread like a few posts above yours.
[Android Apps and Games] -DarkKnight-:
Man the dpi settings are the only reason I use paranoid android

Otherwise I would use AOKP

Sent from the My Little Pony Official App
[Android Apps and Games] Bilgets:
owh lol sorry was getting to excited for the app :o
[Android Apps and Games] ryandigweed:
Thanks for that recommendation. I will try it out :)
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
1. Here's an idea for the GPS control: I could add the option to control the GPS for those users who are willing to install PerApp in /system/bin.

2. Let's be nice to users who don't read the whole thread. It's hard to read everything in a thread.

3. Alas, as I said before, I don't know how to change the density on the fly.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I just posted 0.12 which lets you adjust font size. This does not need root, but only works on some devices and apps, namely the ones on which Spare Parts' font size adjustment works (I just use the same method, but via reflection).

This isn't exactly the same as the density adjust that people request, but it's something.

It looks like I might be able to do per-app locale switching if more than one user wants it. :)
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
How about brightness per app? For galerie maximum, for whatsapp 50% and for turning on 5-10%.
[Android Apps and Games] drfie:
Autostart

Great app! I use the orientation setting to force landscape for Adobe Reader, VLC player, Quick Dilbert, TextWarrior. don't know any other way how to do it so easily and for free. Thanks.

The only thing I miss (or it does not work?) is autostart (of PerApp) after boot. I have to start it manually (or find a way how to make android do it).

SGS2/stock ICS 4.0.3 rooted
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
It starts on boot for me under 2.3. I think this is another victim of the fact that in ICS you need the android.permission.RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED to start on boot. Try 0.13.
[Android Apps and Games] drfie:
Yep, 0.13 works. Thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I just posted 0.14. There are some UI changes. The main non-UI change is that now when you start PerApp itself, it sets all the settings to reasonable defaults (no CPU adjustment, no orientation adjustment, 5 minutes (I think) of screen timeout, etc.) This way, if you turn off one of the settings, you get the default.
[Android Apps and Games] DrZiggy:
Misleading

Although I understand why the program works like this, I do think its description and settings are a bit misleading when it comes to volume control. I wanted to boost the volume of one app, to be able to hear it better when playing music. But instead of just boosting the volume of that one app, it boost the entire volume including the music. So the net result is pointless.

So its more a "Change settings on app start" than "Change settings for each app".
[Android Apps and Games] ermacwins:
Gonna give it a whirl, hope it activated GPS for Google Maps and Navigation...
[Android Apps and Games] Publiuss:
Hi

I like you app very much, it's simple and effective.

I just have a problem with my home launcher: i have a modified xperia home , it's installed in /system/app, but is not listed in PerApp.

So, if I turn the app on, whatever default I choose I have unwanted orientation behaviour in my home.

Why is it not listed in PerApp so i can customize its behaviour?
[Android Apps and Games] vNa5h:
If you add the dpi settings like otheres suggested...

Then this would be an ultimate app...
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Because I didn't realize that Launchers needed to be searched for with Intent.CATEGORY_HOME. It's fixed in 1.01.

And now PerApp is in Google Play. Still free, and the only ad is the link to my other apps.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I don't think this can be done on standard Android builds as the DPI settings are read only when the framework starts. The font size thing is a poor man's substitute.
[Android Apps and Games] Phalanx7621:
I get this when trying to install. Obviously no I haven't changed dpi or anything.
[Android Apps and Games] Publiuss:
Wow, you have been extra fast and nice! Thank you very much! :good:

Will you put in play the same versions you have in googlecode or the branches will be developed asynchronously?
[Android Apps and Games] ArmorD:
I've the same problem... Anyone have a mirror?

I uploaded to Play. Eventually, I might stop updating the googlecode version, though I will keep on updating the source code.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
code.google.com/p/perapp
[Android Apps and Games] drfie:
Two quibbles about the latest version:

1. When I open PerApp app, I can't get out with back button. And when I kill it, it kills the service too. Restart helps. I used to work in 0.12.

2. The names of the installed apps are not sorted with respect to locale? Now apps starting with 'Č' are at the end of the list. But in czech it is c < č < d. It may be my problem because I have language set to english, but other apps, e.g. application list in the system settings sort it right.

SGS2 / rooted stock ICS 4.0.4
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
The first should be fixed in 1.02.

The second, I don't know. If your language is set to English, the behavior is probably correct. Try setting the language to Czech and see if the order changes.
[Android Apps and Games] drfie:
Thanks. It works.

Unfortunately, it does not help. Some apps get czech names, but the order is still wrong.

I did a little research on it and I even built the app from the source :). You would have to use Collator for string comparison in MyApplicationInfo.LabelComparator

something like:

private static final Collator collator = Collator.getInstance();

and:

return collator.compare(a.label.toUpperCase(), b.label.toUpperCase());

With language set to english it still does not work well (it behaves like c==č), but it is better and it works correctly when I set the language to czech.

(BTW: I wish I could set Android GUI language and locale separately...)
[Android Apps and Games] emre.yv:
Nice app dude, i'm currently using the 1.02 version and it works like a charm. My TW 5.0 Launcher doesn't open in landspace mode now even if i toggle rotation! And the per app CPU control is awesome for 3D games. Keep up good work :)
[Android Apps and Games] thatscooldude:
This is cool..much simple than tasker..thanks
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
May I make a suggestion for further developement.

How about including profiles to the app.

Maybe time controlled, during day maximum, at night 50% volume. Or if I plug in earphones it automatically switches media volume to 80%.

Not sure if possible, but maybe some people like this idea too.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
That's what Tasker and Locale are for. :)
[Android Apps and Games] pdppdp:
Will take a look.
[Android Apps and Games] .Ejekt:
Having the ability to force high CPU states for more demanding apps (games, 720p video, etc.) is incredibly convenient. Thanks for this app. Looking forward to updates!

Regarding screen timeout

Hello guys!

It's unbelievable the fact that there is nowhere an option about screen timeout to never end...I use everyday the maps application and every 10 minutes i have to touch the screen just to be sure it will not switch off...
[Android Apps and Games] orrorin:
Can the minimum screen timeout be set to something below 30 seconds?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I can't figure out how to do that, even with root. I wanted to use app_process to start a main class with root privileges and then set the secure setting for GPS, but unfortunately I couldn't find a way to get a working Context.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Done.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I posted 1.03 on Google Play (should be available in a few hours). The new feature is adjusting the input method on a per-app basis.
[Android Apps and Games] arman68:
Using latest version, on Motorola Razr i with official JB update, I cannot get it to work. It does not crash or anything, notification and services are running, but it does not change orientation on any app I try.

Any log or debug mode I can run, if you would like to check what is wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Is your device rooted? In JB, PerApp needs root.
[Android Apps and Games] Droidphilev:
Excellent app, thanks!

Would per app screen brightness be possible please?
[Android Apps and Games] arman68:
Yes, and root rights are granted. I have used on 3 other rooted android devices (xperia play, desire s, kindle fire hd) without problem. Only on the Motorola Razr i, it gives me problems; could it be because it is a x86 processor?
[Android Apps and Games] mrgodai:
does CPU speed settings needs a kernel that allows it? not working on stock S3 T999
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
It should only require root. But maybe the way speed is controlled has changed.
[Android Apps and Games] Delo718:
This app is awesome! I overclock my gpu for games, and it makes them run smoothly when they would otherwise lag a little bit. Also i love the screen orientation lock. One problem that i had when i was on a custom 4.2.1 ROM, whenever I opened the app it wouldn't start, so i would kill it and re-open it and it would always open on the second try. Although, it would always stay running unless i tried to open the app itself. I'm switching to a custom 4.2.2 ROM I will post my results.

---------- Post added at 02:05 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:57 AM ----------

You should check out an app by this dev called RootDim. It allows you to turn your brightness lower than stock allows you to, great for saving battery at night. I map RootDim to my navbar so it's easy to change, that might tide you over if he doesn't add it to PerApp's features. It you don't have the option to map apps to your navbar, check out FastLaunch if your phone has a default search key you can open up apps by long-pressing it.
[Android Apps and Games] steve.rand:
Same as above, it appears to work and I think that is fantastic. I *want* my GPS to be loud in the car, but I *don't* want my Candy Crush blasting everyone in the room. Problem solved!

I just disable cpu and all other functions except volume control, set default at 12, then set individual apps to 1!

I have the same issue as the guy above though, at 1.03 on my Note 2 with Samsung 4.1.2.. if I exit and go back in, it hangs and the system asks me to end or wait etc... it never recovers unless I end the app and relaunch it. My CPU graph shows all four cores barely used when this is happening.

Same problem here with a rooted Motorola Razr (xt910) and JB-Custom Rom (Evolution). Any solution by now?
[Android Apps and Games] Digital Desi:
Dear brother,

Last night, i installed PerApp 1.02 from fDroid.

I opened the application, activated it by clicking the left most

button at the top of the screen, deactivated it by clicking the same

button, and then uninstalled the application.

I did not do anything more than what i just told you.

I did not fiddle with any settings either.

Just before i uninstalled the app, i noticed following values shown to

be the default setting :-

Screen Timeout = 1 minute

Volume Boost = 0

Now after uninstalling PerApp, sound/audio settings of my phone are

messed up big time.

I have to now use handsfree all the time in order to be able to attend

calls, watch videos and listen mp3 songs.

If i don't use handsfree, i don't hear nothing.

I tried to fix the problem by changing sound settings of my phone but

found nothing unusual there.

I also tried to fix the problem by restarting my phone but it didn't work.

When nothing worked, i did a factory reset on my phone but still no luck.

Now you are my last hope, please help me fix the problem and make

sound/audio work the way it used to before.

Thanx in advance.

NOTE :- I am using non-rooted Sony Xperia Tipo Dual ST21i2 phone

running Android 4.0.4 Icecream Sandwich.

NOTE :- I can be contacted at

[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
Unless you blew the earpiece speaker with too much volume boost, I don't think it's due to PerApp. PerApp's settings should disappear after uninstall and reboot.
[Android Apps and Games] Digital Desi:
So i need to take my phone to sony service center and get the damaged earpiece speaker repaired/replaced, right.

What if i get it repaired at the neighborhood mobile shop, will it be fine?

If i get the damaged earpiece speaker replaced with non-sony one, is it going to be fine ?

And thanx a ton brother for replying in time.
[Android Apps and Games] arpruss:
I don't really know what the problem is, but if it survives a factory reset, it's probably a hardware issue.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] clozecall:
In this thread I've posted three separate video tutorials showing modding upgrades for the Infuse 4G. Follow these modding videos at your own risk, doing something wrong could damage your device.

Q: What's in the first video?

A: A tutorial on how to root the Infuse 4G (Rogers version only)

Q: What's in the second video?

A: A simple fix on how to get 30fps recording. It seems as though people running the Infuse 4G with Gingerbread can only record at 15fps instead of the full 30fps. In order to follow the fix, you need root, a stock or the Infused ROM (any other custom ROM user, research for a different fix method)

Q: What's in the third video?

A: Learn how to install the Infused ROM (only for users that follow my shown root method in the first video, other users do some research for a different method).

Q: Where are all the download links?

A: All of the necessary download links are found within the description on the YouTube page for each respective video.

Q: If I have trouble, do I contact you?

A: Please don't, simply because I am not the developer of any of these modding videos, I simply made the videos to make life easier for you.:DIf you need help contact the developer in the correct thread found in each YouTube video description, I take no credit for these methods either.

I think you are talking about baseband, if you upgrade your phone to March 12, 2012 baseband you won't be able to load any other rom except rooted stock 2.3.4., CWM has nothing to do with it.
