I like the work of franco updating the code of the kernel ... I really don't mess too much with the settings I leave every as "stock" with this kernel I just downgrade the vibrator strength to 65 ... But I can say that without touch control... Something that I miss really much ... Battery drops normally

Battery

Doesn't this suck battery because it's using the touch sensor at all times now..? & adtionally, i bet you can also pocket wake the device.. doesn't seem worth it to me..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ImSherlocked:
Touch is not disabled during calls on stock kernel. I feel touch response(vibrations) during call. I end up in clock app after calls
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Lucke:
nice, works great. thanks.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] remixkilla:
So all I have to do is uninstall the app and reboot and it will be gone?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] kong:
Yep.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Lucke:
Had to uninstall after 20 min since the phone kept waking up in my pocket and launched all sorts of apps.

I have yet to dig into the settings though, so maybe there's a way to fix this issue of "phantom taps"?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ixian:
Nice app, decent idea, wish more devices had the tap to wake hardware module like the G2, because this thing sucks the N5 battery like nothing else. Proximty sensor used by it triggers hundreds of partial wakelocks & my N5 battery wouldn't even last half a day as a result. Uninstalled, back to stock kernel, battery is back to normal.

Can't blame the app too much, only so much it can do minus true low-power hardware support like the G2 has.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] fradbari:
Maybe add the wake button volume option?!

The only touch features consume everyone too battery

Weird that if I load the stock kernel after installing aokp it locks my phone up and I have to go into bootloader and reload the rom. But if I load aokp and also elemental kernel and then flash the stock mod from the app everything will work fine. Also the screen is not disabled in calls again.

OMG it seems like there will be no solution for Nexus 5 battery issue, i tried to search everywhere but everyone is having the same problem.

i love this app so much, it worked sooooo well with my Galaxy Nexus. But now i have to uninstalled it on my Nexus 5 :(
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Neejay:
Yeah, don't even bother with it until he posts an update.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
Hi, so there was no update for a while but I have a perfectly good excuse - I was skiing and drinking on new years eve :D

Also I finished writing kernel module for TouchControl v2 and I'm now working hard on GUI for that. So good news is that TC2 is coming in some time. Bad news is that it will still take a while because I'm moving to a different country (I got a job offer and this will take some time to adjust).

Nevertheless I am now online :)

About battery life - I didn't have time to investigate this further. From what I see there is a chance for a slight improvement but it won't be big. I can't promise anything.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] rivera618:
this is the biggest issue for me, i notice the same behavior for a long time now. no updates to the module or any feedback as to why this is happening. i feel i wasted my money on this app.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] tuemdeluxe:
Is there a chance to include turning off TC when the power button is pressed? This feature is included in some custom kernels and saves some battery in long idling periods. Like this the battery drain is quite acceptable unlike having it activated all the time.

Good luck for your new job/life :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cchderek:
No offense, are you working on an update/ a new app?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
I am working on a new version of TouchControl. With more features and a completely rewritten code. The module part is finished. GUI is finished in like 20% ?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Neejay:
That last paragraph is something you should put in your play store app description for nexus 5 users, so they won't waste their money.

Basically, the battery drain is what it is, and you won't look into it...which means we're **** out of luck.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
First of all you have free version to test it before buying. Second - don't tell me what to do with my time. I will look into it when I find more time. And last - it's lie 3$... dude you paid 350$ for your phone and feel like 3$ is going to make a difference?

PS. I don't have time to talk about this any further.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Neejay:
First, I didn't tell you what to do with your time. Second, I misread "didn't" for "don't". Third, actually I paid twice for it due to how you handled the TouchControl vs. the old app situation.

Doesn't matter, this is all void due to my second point.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
I agree PGM was a crappy situation. But it will benefit in the future (I hope)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] Neejay:
I apologize for misreading. I honestly thought you said you DON'T have time and there was nothing left to do. I just kinda felt left in the wind, so to speak.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
No problem :)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] nadiros:
Hey people how about respect where its due. Bponury created even the s2w/s2s/dt2w that you have seen in custom kernels. His work is now spread over tons of kernels and devices and I never saw LG or anyone else allow us to use our phones this way before he has.

The N5 has hardware limitations to begin with which make this mod difficult. I have used PGM/TC on three devices and its made the experience just that much more awesome. With that said, I've used a version of this mod with the power button to disable/enable it and it makes it frikkin totally worth it on the N5. Just hit power button at bed time and experience no extra drain over night. What this device is like 2 months old ! Give it time, and a chance to adapt to a changing environment.

Getting an error upon module download:

ERROR: No internet connection

I have tried this at home on wifi and at work on LTE (both of which are working). Getting the same error both times. Also have tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail.

Has anyone encountered this before?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] 613BulletProof:
I had this on my previous Nexus and loved it. Installed it on my Nexus 5 and it worked fine but the battery drain was just horrible so I just uninstalled it and I am using the volume buttons mod to wake the phone up and the double tap on the center of status bar to turn off the screen (included in the rom im using).

Hopefully an update comes out and fixes the battery drain issue..
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] trungamox34:
hey guys... I really need your help now @.@

I chose to flash the modified stock kernel, it said that it was flashed successfully and need to reboot.

I pressed OK, Reboot, and my Nexus 5 wouldnt boot up again... it's now staying black screen and power button doesnt work... nothing works even plugging to PC...

what should I do now? I've just bought it, and really wanted to install PGM on it cause I had a very good time with it on my GNex...

EDIT: I works again :) the screen was black so I couldnt do anything but trying to boot to recovery by pressing vol up + vol down + power :) and luckily it booted to recovery :) (it didn't the previous times, but showed unrecognized device on my PC :D)

Maybe I should wait for stable version :)

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] quanggiao:
i'm in the same situation with you, but after using double tap to turn off for a while, i didn't like it, i had to reach to the top of the notification bar to turn it off, then i realized that the ROM allowed us to change something in navigation bar, you can choose swipe up to turn off screen, that's much faster :D

hope this will help you;)
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] ImSherlocked:
Which ROM?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] quanggiao:
i'm using DroidKang, but i think there are many ROMs support this feature too, like Purity Hammerhead, any ROM that based on Cyanogenmod
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cc16177:
You paid for it twice?

Question... What phone did you have when you bought PGM? Was it the Nexus 5? No.

It's unreasonable to expect him to invest his time everytime a new phone comes it without expecting payment.

I bought both apps and don't use either at this point due to bugs and battery drain but the bottom line is I'm not an entitled **** who expects something for nothing.

Ya.

Hopefully reading comprehension doesn't fail you, and you actually read past my post. If you did read immediately past my post, then there was no reason for you to even comment.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] cc16177:
Honestly I didn't read past your post I've just seen so many people bash the dev because of the two app situation so I had a knee jerk reaction of coming to his defense.

I apologize.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] someonesim:
I've been fans of PGM since Galaxy Nexus. Having battery drain problem like others, tested on stock kernel and franco kernel. Lost 20% of battery life during 8 hours sleep, with Wifi and data off.

Few days ago, I decided to switch kernel, using ElementalX 0.24 as it had embedded S2W/S2S features. Performed 2 test as below :

1st night, S2W/S2S switch on during sleep, lost 25% battery life over 8 hours. :crying:

2nd night, S2W/S2S switch off ( without any changes of setting or reflash ), lost 4% battery life over 8 hours. :victory:

May I assume S2W/S2S on Nexus 5 will caused high battery drainage, regardless apps/kernel based. Since PGM had limited support of kernel, unable to test further. From earlier post, we had to wait for TouchControl v2, so I assumed there wont be any update to support more kernel ?
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] chafa84:
same test

I did thte same test but with bricked kernel , with both s2w and s2s activated , i get surprised how fast battery get drain with this features when the phone is sleep ... in less than an hour i lost like 10 - 12 % of light use (a phone call , a little web browsing , read a email, tapatalk).

But when i went to sleep i left the phone with 64 % (i disconnected at 4:00pm) of charge at 9:00pm and wake up at 7:30am the phone was at 33 % :p , went to work and checked one last time the battery status and have 18% at 10:40 am and total time of 19 h, not that bad , besides the fact that with franco kernel - r32 (without s2w and s2s activated) i get something like 1 day and x hours of use before the phone die.... so FOR ME total average time of use is not so different, maybe by 5 hrs .

Right now i start charging the phone , deactivated s2w and s2s , and left the phone alone until charges 100% to make another proof without those kernels activated , i will post results !

Battery work around

I've set up Tasker to disable Touch Control whenever the phone is face down or in a call. This ameliorates some of the battery drain when the phone isn't in use, as well as accidental touches during calls, and I don't have to go in and manually switch the app on and off.

Set up the states in Tasker (orientation or call) and then run the script: echo disable > /proc/touch_control/controller

Set up exit tasks as you wish, run the script: echo enable > /proc/touch_control/controller

(thread where I originally posted this is here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2433970)

Can't wait to see what the new version has in store!

EDIT: I did a factory reset, reloaded everything from Titanium Backup, reinstalled Touch Control (stock modified kernel), and my battery life is AWESOME now. I've just about made it through the work day and I'm still at 75% battery. LTE has been on all day with moderate browsing/texting. By this time yesterday before the reset, my battery was at about 50%, with a comparable amount of use.
[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] brotbuexe:

But battery consumption for me with tc turned on is too high - sometimes about 4-6%/hour, so I will not get over a day - no way, badly :(

Turned it off, now its only about 1%/hour in standby. Great value for me.

Anyway to fix it, Dev? ;)

Be patients, the dev said he's working on his new TC2 and maybe we get way less draining there and better waking methods.

[Nexus 5 Themes and Apps] bponury:
To be honest I didn't address the battery drain problem because it's this device specific. I am now trying to work out framework for new features. And there be a bunch of them. I got it to work fairly ok. Actually I have one quite big task to do and after that I can just populate with configurations and build new modules with new framework.

I'm 99% sure it will still drain the same amount of battery. LG has their custom firmware for touchscreen and that makes a difference (also i think LG has bigger battery). Either way it's not an easy task.

On my Nexus 5 with [ROM] [4.4.2] SlimKat (hammerhead) seems to work, lets see how much this awesome feature will kill the battery.

For ~8 hours of sleeping by using [APP/MOD] TouchControl (Nexus 5) lost 16% of my nexus 5 battery.

For the same time of sleeping without [APP/MOD] TouchControl (Nexus 5) I had lost 2%.

Please, push your brain to develop a way that this feature will drain as less as possible battery.
