How many langages...
I think the post was speaking of the original software of the non-rooted Tolino Shine.
I agree with you for the rooted one. Last edited by dd366; 11-21-2013 at 06:45 AM. |

I have some ideas, but it seems to require - Android recompilation (not so easy) - or Kernel recompilation (I need to learn how to) + an app which direct the kernel to rotate coordonates (I can do it). I'm working on that second solution but not sure I succeed. https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...7&postcount=83 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...4&postcount=98 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=112 https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...&postcount=114 What have you tried exactly ?

Multipoints
Multipoints works !
Tested with Moon+ Reader Select: Settings - Miscellaneous - Allow multi-point to change font size AndroSensor apk report 2 points. And at the same time I discovered that CPU freq is 800Mhz... Let's go find an app to overclock it a Glo Frequency (1Ghz)... [Edit] ... not sure it is doable with use apk Overclock apk report kernel not supported Probably need to recompile kernel...

Patch Blinking Led
I managed finally to shut off this annoying led blinking (I can see it through plastic on my white glow)
From the kernel source: arch/arm/mach-mx5/mx50_ntx_io.c, I discovered these calls // #define CM_LED_BLINK 127 // shut off blinking led ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 127 0 // same but with a oneshot blink ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 127 2 // Put led on ( don't allways work, probably need another call to re-enable timer) ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 127 1 These others are interesting too. You can test them in a adb shell // Led Blue ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 101 0 // Led Green ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 101 1 // #define POWER_OFF_COMMAND 0xC0 // 192 // Power off directly, keeping the Eink screen as actual ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 192 // these are not tested yet // #define SYS_RESET_COMMAND 193 // Reboot ? ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 193 // #define POWER_KEEP_COMMAND 205 // Sleep mode on off ? ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 205 0 ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 205 1 // #define CM_TOUCH_LOCK 128 // Lock screen touch ? ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 128 0 ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 128 1 ----------------- However this lead to another problem I tried to put this command (work in a shell) ioctl -d /dev/ntx_io 127 0 in a shellscript led_off.sh that I call from init.rc like this service led_off /system/etc/led_off.sh oneshot The call seams correct but don't work... In fact, it is not possible because the root (ramdisk ?) is erased at each reboot The file seems copied from other recovery partition. Can someone confirm this ? I have not a linux box working yet to view sdcard partitions Would be fine to modify init.rc to call a sh script which could himself call optional user script. related links http://grokbase.com/p/gg/android-pla...ges-to-init-rc http://grokbase.com/t/gg/android-pla...anges-to-init- --------------- In the meantime I found this app: SManager https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...anager%26hl=en or http://smanager.wikidot.com/main:start It can execute shellscript on reboot It works well (despite tiny char interface) but is not ideal in term of memory usage and power in sleep mode. |

> or Kernel recompilation (I need to learn how to) So left it to me. I'll do it this weekend. [EDIT] (Removed part of PxP - it was bullshit - PxP is used to transform picture even in the landscape mode, it converts colorspace and does rotation - but we cannot skip it if we don't want do rotation).

Kernel changes for touch rotation
Here is the kernel changeset needed for touch rotation:
https://github.com/marek-g/kobo-kern...b314d3dcedfef3 It is not enough to replace the kernel. You have to set ro.sw.hwrotation to "0" (in init.rc / ramdisk). Otherwise it won't work. Now I can send events to kernel to change touch rotation (I'm using adb shell): Code:
sendevent /dev/input/event2 17 1 0 -> portrait sendevent /dev/input/event2 17 1 1 -> landscape sendevent /dev/input/event2 17 1 2 -> portrait (reversed) sendevent /dev/input/event2 17 1 3 -> landscape (reversed) |
