Hi.

How do you get the system to load the kernel module? I've read the post about that the phone locks up while in the pocket with TC active. So i thougth, i only need TC when the phone is laying on a table, so i would like to make a tasker task, which enables the kernel module when the phone is placed on a flat surface and unloads the module when the phone is not. If i issue the command rmmod ponury_gm from the terminal or a script with tasker it works fine, TC i disabled. My problems is now that i cannot modprobe the module as it does not exists.

Are you able to tell me what i can do about it?

Thank you for an awesome functionality which made my Gnex awesome and my Nexus 4 awesome.

Yes, the battery drain exists, it can be monitored by using the BatteryMonitorWidget app, which shows the mAh drain every minute (or more). For example, Franco 134 kernel drains in average 3-6 mAh without Touch Control and 15-17 mAh with Touch Control.

Yeah I had the same problem too with Franco's m2 build. Loading Franco's modules in touch control made my pie unresponsive and various other aspects lsuch as my lock screen too. Had to restore a nandroid because of it. I bought the pro version because I believe this app has so much potential to be great. Otherwise very good work dev:)
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] jack1984:
Download a multi touch test app and you'll find that touch control makes the left and right limits of the screen unresponsive. A reboot fixes it, but a few hours later it happens again.

What's the point of disabling the app when you put it in your pocket? I mean the whole point of the app is to wake up the phone without using buttons, which is what you would want to do when you take out the phone from your pocket. Right?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] frenccw:
Do you have Tasker? If you do i have a toggle that will let you enable/disable TouchControl.

If he is getting the freeze bug then he has no other choice i guess. Plus in my case for eg. my phone is always lying on my desk at home or in the office - where TC is still very useful.

I use the gesture control app "GMD gesture control" instead of PIE controls or the original navigation bar.

Now, as TouchControl works flawlessly for me (carbon ROM + franco m2, but I also tried some other ROM-Kernel-Combinations aswell with no difference), after a while some of my GMD gestures arent being recognized any more. I use GMD to swipe up from the bottom of the screen to trigger the home-button and swiping from right edge to left should trigger back-button.

But after half a day use of TouchControl, the gestures of GMD starting on the left and right edge are not being recognized any more (while the gestures starting on the bottom and top border of the screen still work flawlessly).

any ideas why TouchControl seems to interfere with GMD?

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] yoft1:
He's being sarcastic. He's saying that if people are saying the problems are so easy to fix then they should fix it themselves. The bottom line is that the problem is not an easy fix and the "repeatable" procedure to replicate the bug isn't repeatable on my end and I followed the video exactly and tried many times. So if he has trouble replicating it (like me), it's going to be impossible to fix.

The real question you should be asking is how is the dev going to keep interest in this project if the source is available and no one buys his app? That's why it's closed source.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] brian88:
The point is if this app enable when the phone in my pocket, it makes my phone's screen touch freeze

I want it has a tongle / widget to disable it easily when I go out of my home (I have to put the phone in the pocket). When I'm at home I can use this app because I dont need to put my phone in pocket

I'm wondering what kind of battery life people expect when the device is always "waiting" for the touch gesture to wake up.

Don't blame this on the developer!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Ok_Kaleidoscope5109:
The FAQ says there's minimal to no drain that it should be negligible. So yeah I would think people have such expectations. To be honest I haven't noticed much difference in battery life since using touch control. I'm not really sure how people can attribute their battery issues with touch control unless they do some controlled studies
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] sryche:
app is really good but is it support semaphore in the future?
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] pyr0sphere:
Effect on battery is quite noticeable in fact

To test, just look at the battery graph during the screen off/standby sections. I've never been able to flat line with Touch Control (at work I'll have extended periods of screen off time). Same location at my desk and no wake locks. I'd say over the course of a day, there is anywhere from a 15%-20% decrease in battery life (my guess) when using Touch Control
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] mikarbach:
I can easily reproduce it over 8h over night in flight-mode, with everything else disabled. With recent franco-#134 kernel I lose below 1% battery. With TC enabled it is roughly 8-10%. This behavior is completely reproducible. This only over 8h and it will probably sum up over the day.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] sucre213:
mentioned a couple pages back, the developer obviously "didn't" notice,

I mean it's ok for this amazing app to cost 1% more battery per hour

but in OP it should be clearly pointed out. The actual battery drain is way more than what's written in OP.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] xanthrax:
i lose also 1% per hour over night with all radios ON and syncs ... same kernel , same app ...

i think the drainage is mostly present when using the screen not when idle ...

and also i would suggest you to stop mocking this app , if you can help , do it if don`t just let it be , tell me this is the first and the last app on market which is imperfect and i`ll EAT it !

[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] navjot94:
He means that his criticism of the app is not "mocking". I agree. The statements in OP are pretty misleading. People purchase the app with the assumption that this app will not have an adverse effect on battery, but users are reporting otherwise. This isn't mocking the app, it's a valid concern. I don't mean to negate the dev's work - it is still very useful - but I feel that the OP should clarify the description so that users aren't misled.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] xanthrax:
I'm sorry but this is somehow childish... People also have purchased this phone and they've discovered issues which were not mentioned in the "descriptions" ...and many things are like that ...

What shall we do ? I will buy another phone or model , I will suggest to manufactory to fix it and so on ...

XDA won't make your phone better than another one , its purpose is for development

sent from my Darkside of Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] navjot94:
That's a ridiculous argument. Did you read what I said? The issue here is that OP explicitly states that this app will not cause battery issues. Battery drain is expected with these kind of apps, but the description is misleading when it says that this app will not cause drain.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Stryder5:
The play store description doesn't mention it though. The product description is in the play store. This is the dev thread, not where the product is sold. In addition, a free version is available for testing purposes to help eliminate discrepancies between expectation and description.

Now, the dev and several people haven't noticed any battery drain. Some people have. But neither side has been able to track down or pinpoint the drain to disprove the claim so the dev's original theory about the battery drain can somewhat still be considered accurate. This is somewhat a gray area and I do believe the FAQs in the OP should be modified to acknowledge the issues some people have brought up.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] Underground_XI:
Exactly! Simply say it causes battery drain then say you are trying to fix them but until now you have not been able to, rather than making people feel stupid when they report battery drain and you say no, this app does not cause battery drain. Would be more fair to the users and would not offend their intelligence.

---------- Post added at 01:32 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:28 AM ----------

Give me the money you get from the app sale and i will fix it ;) Edit the OP, let users know this app causes battery drain and this way nobody will report this bug here. Until then do not get mad when people tell you that your app causes battery drain. Good luck.
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] LRC1710:
If anyone knows of an alternative to this app, please post, all I need is to wake up the phone by swiping. I lost my hopes on this app, its awesome, but the issues are unbearable and there is no dev support :s
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] dark_ente:
Currently i use smart cover. It wake the phone by proximity sensor, which work perfectly with my nillkin flip cover. Battery drain is also minimal, around 1% for 3-4 hours. Even if you don't have flip cover, you can still wake the phone by wave your hand at the sensor which looks pretty cool btw) . Plus, this won't cause any issue like frozen screen, unresponsive touch, work with every rom and kernel.

I don't get into drama on xda, because it's nonsense. But I have a few things to say.

The HARSH criticism is unnecessary. This thread is hear to discuss bugs. Not start throwing shots at the developer. You would never talk to [MENTION=3124065]rascarlo[/MENTION] like that, because he would walk away. So, because we paid for this app, we have the right to trash the dev? No. We all live on the earth together, we need to get along better. No reason to trash others.

On the other hand, to the developer: This is a paid app, so you have some responsibility of continued updates and support. If you don't want people to expect fixes, take it off the store, make it open source and do this at free will. I'm not saying you deserve the harsh attitudes, and you don't even need to respond to the shots, your bigger than that. But continued updates/and fixes are warranted, which it sounds like you are doing, so thank you.

To everyone, please stop the nonsense. The dev will continue to update the app as it is paid and many of us have done so. Please be nice and courteous when reporting bugs and problems. They should be fixed, at some point.

If you don't like this post, please disregard. I am a father of 2, and I have much more important things to care about in this world. But I hope people can start realizing that we must exist together, and nothing gives you the right to talk to others as if they're beneath you.

Please ignore the usual onslaught of XDA 'whines' - as the usual philosophy goes, there will always look to be more people complaining then happily using a product because often those 1000's that are happy don't post saying it.

I know I (and many others) appreciate the work you have done bringing PGM to the Nexus 4, I am one of the users that see a higher battery usage, but outside of posting BBS Stats, I'm not sure what else I can do to help other then report it. If you need assistance, please let me know!
[Nexus 4 Themes and Apps] bponury:
You are a bit right and wrong at the same time. First of all the last update was 10 days ago. Are you all expecting that I will update the app on daily basis?

Second of all you are paying for the app int it's current state. Updates are only there because I really like the app. If you buy Win7 you are not going to get win8 for free right? So don't take it for granted. If I ever feel like it's time to drop the project I just will. Without posting sources and everything. Maybe I'll pass it on to someone else or not. I am looking into problems but I'm not just a man, I can't fix everything in 1 second. I have a life and this updates and fixes are there because some people ask me about it nicely and provide useful information on which I can work on. And then if I find the time I fix em. If not then sorry.

I'm just tired of hearing that there is no dev support, DAMN I'm spending 90% of my free time on this one project and I do have others. I respond to every mail I get and every PM i get and still that's not enough. I update the app for so much kernels i had to buy big SSD to keep sources for that kernels. I guess for some people it's always not enough.
