Awesome app idea. Adding Root features would be awesome in tandem with Xposed such as Activate Immersive mode...

Nice work!

Sent updated version to Google Play.
Here's list of changes:

Changed app's name to AppConfig(without space)
Some UI tweaks
German translation(thank you Oswald Boscovic)
bug fixes

Hope you like the changes made. Next I'm going to start implement your suggestions.

Could someone with SGS3 test are the brightness settings working? I just got an email saying there's a problem with brightness not changing between levels 0-100, but dimming below 0 is working. Please tell me is it working or not and what Android version you have. Thank you in advance!

Thank you all for posting links and positive feedback!

There was bug in Android that made it possible to toggle GPS but it's not working in newer versions. Would it be enough if App Config would open GPS settings screen automatically so user could click GPS on/off?

WOW! That's very nice!

I'll try to get it done next week. Thanks for the idea.

No xposed module or root needed.

use autoradio for auto on off gps, works in my note 3 running 4.3 tw

Great! Got the paid version its a bargain

I can see that it monitors the running apps, which means it probably works by polling which app is on top. Having a service running on the front also hints that this is how it works.
If it works this way, I'd like to ask some questions:

1. Doesn't it mean that it uses CPU all the time while the screen is on
2. Doesn't it mean there is a delay between the time you go to an app and the time that the settings apply?
3. What happens when there are multiple apps running on front, like those with floating stuff (AirCalc for example), and the multi-window feature apps (as used on Samsung devices) ?

Also, BTW, the link on the first post isn't clickable.

I also have a suggestion: please allow GPS enable/disable, so that when I open Waze it will be enabled, and when I close it, it will close it.
I know it was possible via a hack, but now it's possible using root, as used on "Condi" app.

BTW, Condi does the same as this app, but it makes a shortcut instead of monitoring what's running on top.

configure your system settings on a per-app basis by selecting an app from a list of installed apps and modifying settings presented to you. Appconfig also creates a notification that shows you currently applied settings. Clicking on a notification will take you straight to currently running app's configuration screen.

Settings you can configure:

screen brightness

auto

manual

dimming below system's minimum brightness

screen orientation

portrait

landscape

sensor based orientations

screen timeout

never

time

media volume

mobile data

wi-fi

bluetooth

this is my first application so feedback would be much appreciated.

Not very much. It doesn't even show in my S4's battery stats. Just did a test and ran piece of code responsible of identifying topmost app as many times as it would run if you had your screen on 24h. Longest run was under 2 minutes tested it on Galaxy S, Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy S4. Of course system will take some time of it's own when it's switching from process to process, but haven't seen any battery drain.

2. Doesn't it mean there is a delay between the time you go to an app and the time that the settings apply?

Maximum of 1.5 seconds, so it feels pretty smooth.

3. What happens when there are multiple apps running on front, like those with floating stuff (AirCalc for example), and the multi-window feature apps (as used on Samsung devices) ?

I have tested Samsungs multi-windowing one time and it reports program you last touched to be topmost, so it's settings are applied.

Also, BTW, the link on the first post isn't clickable.

I don't have enough posts to link outside xda.

I also have a suggestion: please allow GPS enable/disable, so that when I open Waze it will be enabled, and when I close it, it will close it.

That's the most requested feature. I will start looking how to implement it after few simpler functions.

There's new version with Spanish translation and setting to change language when app starts. It also contains some bug fixes. Changing language on Android 4.2 and newer needs you to give AppConfig a permission to do it, there's intructions in first post.

Is it possible to have the option to keep the settings enabled even if the app is in background? (until the App is really closed)
For example I'd like to have Bluetooth turned on when I launch the Media player and keep it on while playing some songs in the background.
Thanks!

AppConfig lets you configure system settings on per-app basis. Settings are automatically applied when you use your applications and restored when you leave them. It'll show notification on status bar with currently applied settings and clicking on it takes you straight to settings for current app for easy manipulation.

Settings you can configure are:

Brightness - auto/manual and dimming for both

Screen orientation - landscape/portrait/sensor based orientations

Screen timeout - time/never

Media volume

Mobile data - on/off

Wi-Fi - on/off

Bluetooth - on/off

Location - off/networks/GPS/GPS and networks

Language

Location and language settings won't work on all devices! Language settings work on Androids older than 4.2, but location settings always need rooted device or you to grant permissions to AppConfig manually.

Android 4.1.1 or newer ROOTED:

If AppConfig recognizes that you have root permissions and your package manager supports granting permissions, it will show menu item for requesting permissions. Click on it and when your system asks grant root permissions and settings will appear in AppConfig.

Android 4.1.1 or newer without root:

If your device isn't rooted but package manager supports granting permissions you need to manually grant permissions to AppConfig with adb:
- - - - - - - -
adb shell
pm grant fi.aarosoft.appconfig.free android.permission.CHANGE_CONFIGURATION
pm grant fi.aarosoft.appconfig.free android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
- - - - - - - -
First one is for language settings and second one is for location settings.

Android older than 4.1.1:

On older devices if you copy AppConfig as system app and reboot, then it can change location settings. I take no responsibility if you brick your device in the process. You have been warned.

You can get it from Google Play

Sorry for the late

(i didn't see my XDA notifications

)

Yes, it's always detecting (and reacting) only with the launcher Application, even if i switch (run) an other program (witch is already selected and customized in AppConfig) then when i pull-down the notification screen i always found AppCofig notification showing me that it sticks with the launcher !!
I've Galaxy Note 3 & I'm on this ROM : Note 4 port (Lollipop 5.0.1) - DarkLord rom v2.2

[When i return to KitKat 4.4.4 , all is back to normal : the Appconfig is running OK]
