Thanks. Looks like somehow I got unsubscribed from the G+ community. I must've clicked the wrong button somewhere, and as a result, wasn't seeing any TC news in my G+ stream.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
I removed ~200 people from there who weren't active or at least I thought so. So I must've clicked you.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] RusherDude:
Well imma do a mini review of the v2 now that it seems very stable:

- 0 freezes ( :D :D :D ), it works like 100% of the time ( :D :D), but...devastating battery drain. On average, I use to get 3h+ screen on time and return home still with 20% or so. The days I've had this on.. I returned home with less than 10% battery and didn't even reach 1h45min screen on time (with same type of daily use). One day it was impressive, because I got to 1% battery with only 1h15min screen, 0 games, and 0 non-core apps appearing on the battery list top consumers.

It's a shame, because this app is excelent now in functions, but if it takes half of my screen time daily I just can't have it on and praise to get home with the phone alive.

I really hope you find something to fix this in the few days you said you could dedicate to it: because this app was a deal breaker on GN/N4 but the battery drain on N5 is the worse I've ever seen by any app/mod :( . Seriously a shame because all the effort put on this doesn't deserve such a drawback :(

PS: Also, I noticed or at least got the impression that the battery drain is bigger if the auto-enable at boot option is activated. I think that battery lasted longer the days that just loaded the module but didn't activate the auto-enable at boot.

¡Thanks a lot for your work!

Let's get trinity support on board! Been using this app for years, it's great but ever since I switched from faux to trinity, I've been missing tap to wake...

...I miss my Nokia N9.. :(
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
I think I should start a poll for kernel support.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Viper®:
I had issues with touchcontrol when I first installed it some while ago, wake up feature usually didn't work as expected.

Since the new version things have improved significantly. Tap to wake works about 90 to 95% of the times. I had a weird issues 2 weeks ago when after hanging up a phone call my touchscreen wouldn't respond. The only thing to resolve this was rebooting by holding the power button. I'm not sure if this is touchcontrol related. After searching the web some other people had the same issue without mentioning touchcontrol. Haven't had this issue in a while since the new version, don't know if it's related.

Battery drain is noticable, but the Nexus 5 already has a low capacity battery imho compared to some other phones. I charge it every day anyway.

I'd like to keep using it on my next phone too :good:
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Valholy:
Was thinking that the app consumes a lot of battery when screen is on. Maybe it could be a good idea to add the option to disable it while screen on and turn on when screen is off, for those of us that use it for waking phone. I use lmt to turn screen off

hi, thanks for this great app. just wanna share my experiences with nexus 5, stock rom, stock modified kernel. double tap to wake module needs 2-3 x of try, to wake the device from deep sleep. but if i use slide to wake, it always work to wake my nexus. anyone got the same issue?sorry for bad english. thanks

You can do that. Just set point somewhere on the bottom with big enough touch area.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] gut4:
[MENTION=2538253]bponury[/MENTION] I think your idea with poll for kernel support is good. Only way to see what is most wanted.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] wirtzpeitz:
How? The syntax passed around in earlier posts doesn't seem to work anymore.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
echo enable > /proc/touchcontrol/controller

echo disable > /proc/touchcontrol/controller
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] wirtzpeitz:
Works, thanks.

Unfortunately, neither the app nor the widget reflect changes to TC using the shell commands. (App does after closing and opening it again.)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
Well yes, they are not "polling" for state changes. If you do lowlevel TC disabling then this will happen.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] dunjamon:
I've noticed a weird issue since the last update. When I wake the screen it flashes on and then sleeps again. Seems to happen with swipe and double tap. If I swipe and hold my finger to the screen for a bit then it seems to be OK. Nothing major, just wanted to see if anyone else has had this.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] GragonV:
Never mind :), just waiting for the DbPB :D

TERMINATION NOTICE

So after quite some time, this project is not being able to sustain itself (I'm spending more than earning - thanks to all people using cracked version). Also a lot of people started commenting on how bad this app is and that I should do this or that instead.

Because of all that and a bit more I decided to end this project. Prices are now cut by 50% for anyone willing to get paid version while it's still there.

Timeline:

- 31.05.2014 - application removed from play store

- 30.06.2014 - modules removed from my server (module download will fail) - backup the app on your own if you need

F.A.Q:

will you release sources?

- No, I opened my sources for the version for Evo 3D and a lot of people stole the code without even saying thanks to me. I'm not going to make the same mistake twice.

are you considering selling the app sources?

- Yes, if the price is good enough and no $500 is not good enough.

whyyyy???

- Few reasons 1) money 2) people who complained every time 3) time spent on the app that I could use to do different things

will you do more awesome stuff in the future?

- Probably... I'm not thinking about this yet.

can you just do one more update to do X?

- No.

So long, and thanks for all the fish!

This is truly a sad day :( - dare I ask how we can back-up the modules manually for when you remove them?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] tekmekster:
The main reason to buy an app instead of download cracked is to get updates from playstore. Why would someone buy dead app even at half price.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 5 mit Tapatalk
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
Yeah, well, that's just, like your own opinion, man. People also buy apps for at least two more reasons:

to support the dev and say thanks for good work

because cracked apps can be super easily manipulated to do harmful stuff like steal passwords, keystrokes and take pictures - rooted apps don't need any permissions to do so :)

Also I don't care.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] simms22:
blatant honesty.. i like that. good luck with whatever future projects that you start on. i dont use your app(or the mod), but have been around helping people with it from the very beginnings of it(way before the nexus 5). much respect to you :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] J.S.C:
This is such bad news, I'm gutted :( why would someone not pay for an app if they enjoy it?

Sure use a cracked version for a week just to check but if you like it then pay!!!
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] rayiskon:
I was holding off to write anything in this thread for a long time, but seeing some of you guys getting upset because of this project is sickening.

First of all, this project has had it's bugs since the early days (on previous devices too, not just N5), and it was never going to work properly. I'm sure the majority of those who paid for it are not using it.

Secondly, the " developer" of this app has been acting very rudely towards his "customers", you can read his posts here or on G+ and you will see how disrespectful he can be towards people who actually invested in his project.

Thirdly, this "developer" kicked a lot of people out of the beta project on G+ because "they were not active". If someone paid for the app, imho, they have the right to be part of the beta project, and be able to download the latest apk.

Fourthly, he's not willing to open source the app not because of the reasons he stated (not getting recognition in the past). We all know why.

Fifthly, if i were developing something that eventually didn't end up in a working state, i would offer refunds to people who are asking for it. Not because of the value of the money, but because of principles, if i'm not capable of delivering what i was paid for, then i didn't deserve that money.

To be honest, i bought this app since the nexus 4 days, used it for a couple of days, couldn't get along with battery drain it causes, and just stopped using it. Never asked for refunds, or stated my dissatisfaction with the app. I was also one of the people who did NOT get kicked out of the beta G+ group, even though i never wrote a single post there.

I guess i'm posting this because i want some people to realize that it's for the best that this project dies. I presonally, will not be supporting any future projects by this "developer", mainly because of his childish and unprofessional behaviour. Good luck to him. It's time for this thread to get closed and let it die, just like this project did.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] odavans:
You are totally right, this is the worst developer on XDA
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Neejay:
[MENTION=3466355]rayiskon[/MENTION] yep. This has actually taught me a couple of lessons. In the future, I'll heavily take advantage of trial/beta apps. I'll also be researching a developer's update habits and general response to people before putting blind faith based on the developer's previous successful app(s).

Live and learn, not that big of a deal. I wasn't able to use the app on my N5 anyway.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
[MENTION=3466355]rayiskon[/MENTION] totally agree.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Antebios:
It took a few tries and reboots to finally get working, but it works great. Now time to see how much of a battery drain it is.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
Speaking of battery drain it does seem to be bigger than on N4 but not that much. I've been using it for 12hrs and some heavy usage (a few calls, browsing net, took a few photos and listened to music for about an hour) and I lost 55%. It's not great but still I don't think it's a huge drain. I'll investigate the drain further nevertheless.

Running Cataclysm + franco r14, I am also having issues with s2w and dt2w - some of the time (especially after reasonably long periods of inactivity) the phone fails to register my swipe/taps.

What 'stock' kernel do I need to use?

I hope you can help me out.

I have just acquired a Nexus 5 and I still need to root it. But that's no problem.

My questions involves how to install TouchControl.

I have read the OP and this thread carefully, but I can't find the answer. I also looked at the following forum thread: http://forum.paranoid.me/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=1033

Can I install this app and module by just downloading it from the Playstore on my rooted Nexus 5 with a pure stock kernel?

Or do I have to download some kind of 'patched' stock kernel? I know I can use Franco Kernel r14, but I'd like to stay stock for now.

If so I can't find this patched stock kernel in this thread or on the thread at forum.paranoid.me.

For the nexus 4 I can find in the above mentioned thread a special modified 'stock' kernel.

I hope my fellow XDA forum members can help me, because I use an electric wheelchair and have trouble using my hands. Using tap to wake will enable me to unlock my new and shiny Nexus 5! :D
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Nephilim-Giant:
So apparently this app started to support Nexus 5 (in the app store it shows Nexus 5 now)...slide to lock works like dream, but slide to unlock is still not working properly. I followed the "1. Uninstall 2. Reboot 3. Install 4. Download new module ￼ 5. works now! hurray"... but still no go.

Here's my problem. Slide to lock works 100% of the time. Slide to unlock doesn't respond until I do it a few times. It tends to have problems after the screen is off for a few minutes. :(
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
Just press download module, select stock modified and it will fail but will also ask you if you want to flash stock-modified kernel. Press yes and you're ok :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] doubleho:
so being a franco kernel user,i can buy yr app and use s2w???

coz franco doesnt seem to be adding s2w....

thz,and is it possible to set the s2w only at the bottom bar?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
Yesterday I updated the module so it might be a bit better with s2w. If you go into TC app you should get a notification about new module version. Can anyone tell me if that update helped?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Nephilim-Giant:
swipe to wake seems better...but it's still not as smooth as swipe to lock. :crying:

My main concern is the battery drain, about 19% overnight....
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] pkelly517:
How many hours? Is it 12 (absolutely acceptable at 1.5%/hour) or 6 hours (3% /hour)?

I drop mine on a charger before I go to bed, so I never know how much the idle drain is.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] HughesNet:
Gotta remember you want slide or tap to wake that means you don't want to let the digitizer sleep. So expect battery drain.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] punalex:
It keep asking me to updated the modules even I uninstall, reboot, install. The program will still prompt me for update when I get in the program next time after I reinstall

Moreover, I report in your forum that, your program have a bug as in the early version of PGM in Galaxy nexus that break the keylock during the phone call when the screen is off by sensor
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] doubleho:
hv the same update issue,keep asking me if i want to update and restart
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Nephilim-Giant:
6 hours and 30ish minutes of sleep resulted in a 19% drop. A bit too high for me, unfortunately. I turned off slide to unlock for now.

I'm definitely enjoying the slide to lock though :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] doubleho:
i love slide2wake.....but i hv to switch it off most of the time now to save juice

hope there will be an improvement in the next update
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] NinetoFive:
Obviously a pretty common trend in here but thought I'd chime in as well.

Went to bed for 6 hours, phone lost 14% on airplane mode with S2w enabled.

I felt like I had less than 5% drain overnight with the N4 running TouchControl. Too much drain for it to be viable for me right now. N5's battery life is way better than the N4's, I wonder why the drain is so different?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
I'm looking into it. It's not easy to monitor battery usage on android. Especially in deep sleep.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] pkelly517:
Maybe the bigger screen. Maybe the different CPU.

Maybe that's why the G2 has such a bigger battery to handle knock on.

In other words, is tough to compare the N4 and N5 on a hardware level.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cc16177:
My understanding is that most phones allow the touch panel to stay active while the LCD sleeps. In the case of the N5 apparently both have to stay active in order for these features to work, causing the extra battery drain.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] starnostar:
I just got my nexus 5 about an hour ago... I had an S4 for about 4 months and really felt lost without this mod. Thanks for continued development on this ponery, beginning with the galaxy nexus this has turned into a "must have" feature for me.

Is there a consensus here as to which kernel works the best with this? Or is it too early to use this full time (after reading about terrible battery life)?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] doubleho:
hi i was using franco and touchcontrol add and they were working fine

and today i tried changed to faux kernel which has an default s2w but i wanna stick with tc app to set the y axis start and end point and when i opened tc apo and it asked me to download modulus but the only option was franco r14 and stock kernel,tried to apply both but didnt success

is there a way i can use tc app on any kernel comes with s2w??
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] caribouxda:
Non sense. The g2 knock on does not drain battery while phone sleeps.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] doubleho:
hi,is there a way i can stop auto check update everytime i open the app?it is kinda annoying
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Nephilim-Giant:
Is there anyway to integrate this app with tasker? I'm at the point where I'm thinking just to uninstall it for the time being.

I love this app when I'm at home because I'm next to a charger. I can't afford 20% battery drain in 6 hours outside, especially with the Nexus 5's battery :(

There might be a solution!
