F.A.Q:
Q: I installed the your App, but nothing happen after reboot?!
A: Make sure you have:
  • Xposed framework is installed and up to date (install it through Xposed Installer App)
  • Enabled my App on the Xposed modules list

Q: I tried to install your App, but i'm getting a bad parsing error!
A: Because you are NOT running the required Android version 4.4+.

Q: Does this Application requires Root access?
A: No! Root is required only for Xposed framework installation.

Q: I start the screen recording but how to stop it? i get a broken video files!
A: You MUST have Busybox installed, and expand your notifications (XSense feature) to get the Stop ticker on the notification bar.

Q: Call recording is NOT working or i'm getting a bad recorded sound! PLZ fix it!!!
A: Nothing to fix from my side, it depends on your device/Rom, and you need to use a Headset in this case, it IS a Stock feature and this IS a stock bug.

Q: Why don't you make my changes applied on the fly? why do i need to Reboot?
A: Because i care about performance, applying a feature change on the fly means the related stock Method MUST be hooked on boot, which means all impacted (by my module) System Methods should be hooked on boot even if most of them are NOT used.

Q: I'm getting a boot-loop!
A: Flash Xposed disabler patch (you will find it on your sdcard) through CWM recovery

Q: Does changes persist after uninstalling the Application?
A: No!

Thanks for the great mod.

How do you stop the screen record though? Can't seem to figure that out

I do have busybox installed but I see no way to end the screen record in the notification bar. Am I missing something else? I'm stock rooted with minimal mods outside of sense toolbox and GB.

Your recording notification must be expanded if you have any other active notification.

I can't seem to get the call recorder to work on the M7.

How? post your Xposed logs.

Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk

I'll give it a shot next time I get a call and post the Xposed logs. Are there any known incompatibilities with the Sense 5 Tool Box?

---------- Post added at 06:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 AM ----------

Where does call recording save to?

I was wondering the same thing. During a call, when I tried to activate the call recorder, as far as I could see there was no reaction. Afterward I looked through the sd card for a file or a directory that could have been saved, but found nothing.

Sdcard/My Documents/My Recordings

I have tried now to record a call twice. No such directories were created on my sdcard (My Documents/My Recordings). Perhaps I am doing something wrong. Could it be that there are regional restrictions on phone recording?

Upload your xposed logs.
Did you get the recording started notification? any other notifications after ending the call?

I have attached the Xposed error.log. There was no "recording started" notification. I selected start recording and nothing happened. I am running stock sense 5.5 rooted if that makes a difference.

Ah ok, then i think the module did what it can do, actually the only thing this app does is to enable the record button, what happens after pressing the button is a pure stock Htc feature, if you aren't getting any notification then i guess it's a stock bug, can you upload your logcat?

By the way i noticed that Lock screen carrier label mod isn't compatible with your Sense 5.5, can you upload a deodexed Htc locksreen apk?

    I love this mod. One request. Recent key switches to clear all. The button currently located at the top couldn't be farther from where it should be. Since there is no room left at the bottom of the panel, nav bar seems to be the best spot. I know it is probably a challenge, just thought I'd put it out there. Thanks again for all your contributions.

    Great feature, but i still have no idea about its complexity, i never played with the nav bar, but i will see how it's implemented on some Aosp Roms.

    New update 1.3.2 posted to get rid of the annoying Htc keyboard auto correction, of course the auto complete suggestions will remain enabled.

    hi wanam

    can you make a option for 1% battery ?







    If you plan to continue working on this module please add the "quick pin unlock" option! It rocks!


    I will try.




    Nice. Everything I try has worked on my m8
