[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
I noticed that the auto apply functionality doesn't work sometimes. I noticed it with gamma and color mutipliers but it's probably not specific to these two but colour settings are the only settings that have an immediate effect when you apply them.

It works after rebooting though.

There also appears to be a conflict with the CM9 gnexus advance settings menu (for color) and this mod. The CM9 menu disables itself with lean/franco kernels but not with CMplus. There should be a way to disable setting colour settings altogether.

For example, I set the colour offsets in CM9 and when I rebooted, it was reset to -88,-88,-88. Even in the script it now says "Default : -88,-88,-88". The colour multipliers were set to 0.325,0.353,0.465. Screenshot: https://bu.mp/dgpaBy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Which app did you use to edit the text file? I have only tested root explorer and es explorer, those work fine every time.

My mod is supposed to override ROM color control as I haven't added in any mechanism that makes it back off. In any case, check your PM I think I'll need your help for this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Solid Explorer.

PM sent!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diggmc:
Umm wouldn't this be a race condition? If tricks runs before the users app for any kernel features, then the app gets the final say on settings? or am I missing something. I've been trying to duplicate the problem on TricksterRom 1.21, but I don't have any apps that tweak kernel parameters installed.

Sorry forgot to add, that I've even used windows notepad, msoffice, and vim for windows and not a single problem with editing the tricks.conf and then having the changes recognized.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Yeah, you can call it that. I'll add a back-off feature for the next release. Basically COLOR var will have three values 0 to not do anything, 1 to let Trickster do it and 2 for Google default. I will group gamma (0-10) and contrast tweaks into this group as well.

Still, on android each file manager app saves file a different way, making detecting the trigger complicated. As for the parsing, there's still room for improvement. I forgot that crap like this VAR=`bad command` can still be executed. Next version will take that into account. I'm OCD.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
May I suggest a few more defaults? like -4,0,5 and 180,190,200 that a lot of people are running.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
That's easy to add, but what should we call it, franco's default :D?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
I don't think franco is gonna sue you if you use "Neutral" :)

For most of the screens out there, this setting gives a neural white.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
As I tested Solid Explorer and it works the same as ES Explorer when saving file, so it's actually something else. CMPlus kernel has a problem I think. It seems like this sysfs /sys/class/misc/samoled_color/green_v1_offset is broken. Check it on your side by editing that file by hand. I am using the latest version and changing that sysfs doesn't do anything now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ArmanUV:
Yes it does appear to be broken. I never noticed it because I always keep green constant and change red and blue.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Nexus Project:
Tested different file exolorers(Solid Explorer, ES, Root Explorer, Astro, Linda) Root Explorer is my goto File explorer. Although Solid Explorer is pretty fancy and seems to be an app to watch coming out of beta

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KRJ_87:
As this is new to me, I am a little confused with what this Trickster thing is. It isn't a ROM or kernel from what I've read in this thread. Is it like something that can complement my custom ROM/kernel combination? I am using AOKP b38 with Francos 181. I am excited to incorporate this Trickster thing if I can.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Yeah, you got it right. It can be installed on any Nexus that satisfies its requirement (CWM).

@all: Next version will be sent for private testing soon :D.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] diggmc:
Oh boy, oh boy :-)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Segnale007:
Thanks for the script, I am going to give it a try. However, do you think it can mess with V6Supercharged script at some point?

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
I took a look at V6 before, I would recommend you to get rid of it as some of the tweaks are included here already. This thing is built specifically for our Nexus.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKarido:
Tried this Mod on Paranoid Android+CMPlus Kernel.

Had FCs on all my gapps. Cleared cache and dalvik and also cleared data after I booted but it didn't help.

Might try another rom today and will flash this again.

Thanks for your work
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
You enabled sqlite optimization right? That's the cause. As sqlite is done at boot and these apps are also started at boot. They can't access their dbs so they FC, but they should work like normal afterward.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] iKarido:
If its enabled by default on first boot this I guess it was.

I cleared everything and flashed the Mod and booted, thats was it.

If so I'll give it another go now and leave it for a while.

Thanks alot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] KRJ_87:
I've zipped it from recovery and then rebooted system. I cannot tell if there are any system performance changes. Am I supposed to find an application that cane with this mod?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks all!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Neo3D:
This looks sweet! Does anyone know what these things do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] julian.kueh:
How will I know if the mod is installed?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
If it's installed correctly. There's a trickster directory in your sdcard. Currently there's no frontend GUI for this MOD, but I'm writing one.

These are kernel features. You would find more information on them if you search around kernel threads.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] julian.kueh:
OK. So I found the directory. Do I need to change any of the values to improve performance and battery life?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Default settings are good, unless you want to OC or enable optional feature like force fast charge, fast wifi in sleep mode... Of course you need kernel with these features though.

On another note, I'm gonna release a new version tomorrow, with a lot of changes so just leave it that way.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] julian.kueh:
Thanks for the info. Looking forward to the update.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] benrees21:
Would love a GUI. Happy to hear your working on it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
New version 20120616 released, with a lot of changes. Please read the changelog and usage section in first post carefully.

Shorter version of changelog:

- trickster.conf is now split into multiple files for easier manipulation

- Smarter configuration parser and configuration directory watcher to better serve users

- Add more color profiles

- Added MUL_MIN_LIMIT and MUL_MAX_LIMIT to limit valid color component multiplier range

- Under the hood fixes and optimizations
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] julian.kueh:
Do i install this over the previous mod?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Updating is the same as installing.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] swanwila:
1 question.

VAR=0 means enable or disable?

I'm curious because of 'screen off WIFI high performance' setting says...

Value = binary(0,1) or boolean(Y,N)

which means 0=Y and 1=N?

But typically 0=N and 1=Y (for myself).

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Y, 1 mean ON. N, 0 mean OFF. We're working with computers. But I'll change the wording anyway.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] The Nexus Project:
Is there a setting to increase call volume?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Unfortunately that needs a recompiled ROM with patched source so no, not here.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avyonix:
You have a generic hotplug mod in this mod of yours. I was wondering whether it will work with cheeky's cmplus kernel. I think cheeky removed hotplugging from his kernel sometime back, correct me if I am wrong.

**edit** PS: If there is no hotplugging in cmplus, will I be able to use the hotplug option in your mod?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
The hotplug option, that used to be available in cmplus, was made using shell script and was not stable. The one included in my script is for the old generic hotplug mod from franco that was also removed by him recently.

Now I could do what ch33ky did and implement it in script for every kernel out there, but I won't because the chip in our phone already does that by itself. Doing it by yourself would just spell troubles (SOD) and give little to no battery benefit.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] avyonix:
Ok, got it bigeyes0x0, thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bouod:
Hi bigeyes0x0..

just tried your MOD with aokpM5 & trinityA95

every thing is fine, but could not found "Touch wake and touch wake duration" settings!!

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
Trinity kernel does not have Touch wake sysfs IIRC, my MOD exposes a way to config kernel sysfs, it does not add features to kernel.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bouod:
thanks, I thought Trinity has Touch wake.

great MOD, keep it up:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
New version up in first post,

This version introduces THE CONTROL APP and also bring the biggest amount of changes so far internally. For users, new features and changes I made are:

- Add def and set arguments for tricks script, to be used with GUI

- Add fsync support for franco’s kernel (why did he do it different to Ezekeel’s???!!!)

- Add SR toggles for core, iva and mpu

- Add CM9 vibrator control support

- Add new argument install for tricks script. This argument is for modifying boot.img ramdisk to include Trickster MOD service. It is run during CWM installation and user can also use it to reapply Trickster MOD service into the ramdisk if they install a new kernel in boot.img format

- Change touch wake delay to use second instead of millisec

- Change some internal VAR names

- Change COLOR tweak values to strings

- Rewrite zipalign procedure so it’s now more robust and fix a rare case when Trickster MOD can set the wrong permission on apk causing disappearance of apk. e.g. loss of navbar and statusbar, sorry for this guys, but there’re still a lot of mods with failed signature out there also causing the same ****

- Rewrite certain tweaks (gamma offset, wifi PM mode,...) to be universal between kernel implementations

- Remove KER_SS and VM_SS as there’s no need to tweak them individually

- Remove MUL_MAX_LIMIT and MUL_MIN_LIMIT, as they’re too complicated to be included in GUI meaningfully, there’ll be a warning instead

- Fix file permission issues on JellyBean

- Fix VIB_STR range

For even more gory details read the changelog for two previous private releases and this public release. The bold line above is about a new argument I added into tricks script to modify ramdisk to create a new boot service for Trickster MOD instead of relying on the unreliable and messy init.d. The downside will be when user installs a kernel that includes its own ramdisk (leanKernel, franco) they will either need to reinstall Trickster MOD, run "tricks install" from adb root shell or terminal, or apply this CWM zip from recovery.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bigeyes0x0:
I'm gonna move every updates regarding Trickster MOD to the app thread and stop maintaining this thread, so I won't have to follow a bunch of threads any more. Also expect a small updates with bug fixes mostly, soon.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imaudi5000:
ok so ive searched everywhere and tried reading everything but im very confused. i see that it is going to be very hard to root my tf101 since i have the latest asus ota update (build #9.2.1.24) but i cant quite wrap my head around how to do it.

i tried using the backup exploit and sparkyroot but those dont work on the latest ota. i already have Rom Manager installed and tried the recoveryinstaller.apk from Gnufabio but those didnt do anything either.

iv read the thread about downgrading (Wolf's guide) but im hesitant to do that since i dont understand it and i have no experience using the shell command (is that the same as using a terminal emulator?) can anyone please explain the terminology and how to downgrade? what program do i need on my computer (running windows vista)? please be gentle and dumb it down for me and include any links to programs or files i may need

thanks so much

p.s. is a "Blob" the same thing as an SBF? and if i did a factory data wipe, would that downgrade from ics 9.2.1.24 or keep it the same?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Adb shell is the same as running a terminal emulator, just google android sdk download and click the first link. Follow wolf's instructions carefully using your favorite recoveryblob from the development and you should be perfectly fine. Never use Rom manager, please just uninstall it now. If you factory reset, the recovery will still be there, as a reset only deletes user data, to return to stock you would need to flash stock recovery over cwm (not recommended) or flash a whole ASUS ota package from their website (better, removes any root and rom you have, cross that bridge when you get to it) What are the first 4 digits of your serial number? (for ex: mine are B70K) If they start with B60 or lower (B50,B40,etc..) you can just use NvFlash instead of having to use wolf's guide to root. Don't be too scared, it isn't that bad, just follow instructions carefully.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imaudi5000:
Thanks for the reply. My serial is b60. After more searching I was able to find an adb dummies guide and was able to downgrade to .17 but I didn't read one extra post to see that sparkyroot doesn't work with .17 :(

So I had to do it all over again and go down to .11 and that worked and then I used sparkyroot and voodoo ota rootkeeper. Will rootkeeper work/stay if I do a factory reset? Cuz some apps and services aren't working. Or should I just do the ota to .17 and then .24? And now I can use nvflash in order to flash a new rom? Is that in the market or just google it?

Thanks again :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
You didn't need to go through all that since you have NvFlash, but good learning process I suppose :p

At this point, since you're rooted, use recoveryinstaller again to install CWM recovery, download a kernel.zip (I recommend Guevor's kernel) your favorite ROM .zip, and a new recovery.zip (as 3.2.0.1 works but is pretty outdated) [OR you can go to team rouge's thread in dev for an NvFlash version of recovery and NvFlash instead of recovery installer and update, then apply rom and kernel .zips in new recovery]

Make sure to place the .zips on external SD card if you're using 3.2.0.1. Any other Qs?

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] imaudi5000:
when you say that recovery.zip 3.2.0.1 is outdated do you mean the CWM version?

is flashing a new kernel safe? this is obviously my first time with a tablet with so much "freedom" compared to my droid2global lol

personal opinion, what do you think of android revolution rom? any other recommendations? :)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Thing O Doom:
Yes the CWM version, I did use 3.2.0.1 for awhile though, it works, it's just old.

Yes, flash away, just always remember to wipe cache and dalvik-cache before flashing anything.

Android revolution is a great stock based rom, if you like the tab the way ASUS sends it too you, I personally prefer AOSP based roms, so my other recommendation if you want to go that route is Megatron or AOKP Build 37

Guevor's v20 kernel is the best out atm, imo.

How to make video calls via 3G? Standard video call function to another 3g phone. No Skype, etc.

[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
just use gtalk, tango or skype. lots of options. all are great.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Mike3.8:
Not sure what you mean by "standard video call" but without an app you wont get far. Tango, Skype, Yahoo, and Gtalk. They all work over 3G but Sprint's 3G is slower than a constipated turd so its better over wifi.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sailord.gm:
Video Call service is available from any operator of 3G mobile networks (not in the U.S. in my opinion). In addition to the button "call" for 3G phones should be a button "call with video." All Win Mobile devices with a front camera, symbian nokia phones and other 3G phones with front camera has support for video calls. Please watch these videos:

On Samsung Galaxy S youtube.com/watch?v=2lbpCJE1lcY
[Motorola Photon 4G] na7q:
That's all pointless in the end. We don't all have the exact same phones. That's why Skype or other popular ones are best. Giving us more options. For every user on all devices. (:
[Motorola Photon 4G] sailord.gm:
Your own words I can say that Skype is pointless in the end. Because not all of my friends run Skype for the day. But 3g video call is a real replacement of traditional voice calls. If the subscriber does not support video call, then video call switches to traditional voice mode. Therefore, 3G video calls and video calls via Skype is a completely different services. sorry for my english
[Motorola Photon 4G] Mike3.8:
Trying to video call over Sprint's crappy 3g is pointless.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mdemons12:
Well I got the GPS dongle just yesterday after waiting for about a month and after a reset it works fine, it picks up about 16 satellites downstairs on a cloudy day instantly and then after about 20 seconds it will make a lock on around 7 of them. But, when I turn the GPS off then back on again or take the dongle off and on it doesn't work. I have to reset the tablet for it to work. Any ideas please?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
what firmware are you on? If you take dongle off while gps is still on, they yeah, itll likely act up. as its not meant to be disconnected while its activated and being used. Its only meant to be used at that time then detached immediately once you done using it. What do u specifically mean by cutting gps off n on again? Are you just doing this back to back, like constantly? or is there a time period in between you cutting it off, then on again? If there's a time lapse, then this goes back to other instruction on it. Don't leave it attached while gps is off.

You could try a soft reset to see if it clears things up. putting a little paper clip into small hole underneath micro sd card slot. Or try a cold boot. which is power off prime. then hold power and volume down button. keep holding till prime powers up and you see white lettering across the top. once you see that, release the buttons and don't press anything. The prime will automatically cold boot. it will say so also.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mdemons12:
I am on .21 and I am pretty sure its just when I turn the GPS off or on not taking the thing off while GPS is plugged in but I will do some testing just to clarify.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] mdemons12:
Ok so what I did was booted it so with the dongle in and then enabled the GPS. I turned GPS off in the settings and the took it off and put it back on again then enabled it in the settings. Didn't work.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
from my testing/use & instructions that came with dongle, Gps dongle is not to be attached until the prime is already on and gps is enabled. For me, i could just have prime on, attach dongle, then cut on gps and it'll work fine. Then once i was finished, i disabled gps, then detached the dongle since it was no longer being used and is not recommended to leave attached when not in use. Then for me, it would always work again, if i reattached it, and activated gps again. Make sure the latch on the dongle is slided to the lock position when its attached to the prime. This locks it in and enables it. A reboot or reset shouldn't be required to get it working again once reattached.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aschneid:
OK...Love this phone, but there is one thing bothering me that I can't find the answer to. I've looked in the One X/S forums, and tried searching to see if there are any apps that would help. So far, no luck.

I know, due to the Apple patent BS, that they had to remove the functionality of popping up the menu when you click on a link to ask what app you wanted to open it in. For the life of me, I cannot find any way of setting the YouTube app to be the default app to open up Youtube URLs. I've cleared the settings in the browser, but every time I open up a Youtube link, it sends it to the browser.

Probably even harder, but I would also like to make Google Maps URLs open in the Maps app when clicked from the browser. I looked for those defaults, and the Maps app is set for those URLs, but in the browser, it still opens in the browser.

This is the one thing that is seriously bothering me about this phone.

Thanks for the replies. I saw that link app as a default in an app called Default App Manager, but couldn't do anything with it. Suspected that was the culprit.

The HTC workaround doesn't seem so bad, but they should have given us more control to manually set things. Wonder if they have an API for it. I wouldn't be opposed to writing a more full featured app. Will have to do some more research.

I don't blame HTC, I blame Apples's patent trolling.
