[MOD][Lollipop] Add 0.75 animation scale in developer options

[jnx_r]

Please people don't discuss viper in this thread.
@jnx_r push Settings.apk found in the flashable zip to /system/priv-app/Settings and set permissions to 644.

The flashable zip should definitely work though. We are on the same system, uses the same recovery (I use CWM).

Flash it again and show me a screenshot of the windows animation scale options please.

Sorry about going off topic earlier. Anyways, I did what you said, still stuck right where I was.

Ok push it manually.

Use adb or a file explorer with root capabilities. Don't forget to set the correct permissions.

I'll take a look at my updater script again, why it isn't working. It really should work :/

I did exactly as you said. The file sizes matched when I replaced it. Meaning, the file was updated when I flashed it. But still the .75x setting hasn't shown itself. Are we missing something here?

The one from the first zip file in the first post. I also tried removing the .odex file from the arm directory there just in case, but it had no effect whatsoever.

Here is a screenshot of the file size specifics, if that helps.

I don't know then. Maybe try a clean flash? You can flash this mod right after flashing the rom.

And don't mess with selinux.

See if this work. Should work.

Can't reflash. Would take a while to back up everything and restore it after I reflash since it already took such a long time to set everything up. I'll try other methods and report back if anything works.

I'm too , can't get this to work.
Flash via twrp or even manually put it.

 

[pemell]

Then give me a recovery log. I flashed three times and success every time

 

[theerachai]

not sure, is this the file you wanted.

Issue with some root apps in scrubber port.

Okay, I spent the last day and a half trying to get it to work, and also did a clean install like you asked. Here is what I came up with after 5 reflashes and test installations/restorations:

~After a clean install this mod works fine.
~While restoring apps, it stopped working after I restored and used a few rooted apps.
~SElinux did not seem to cause the issue because the mod was working fine with Selinux installed.
~Restoring system apps via Titanium backup also breaks this mod when used with the updated Supersu.
~There may be other actions which cause this issue, but I noticed something peculiar about Supersu. A feature called "mount namespace separation", which is enabled by default in v2.38[updated version] causes some root apps to misbehave.
~The very same root apps when used with the option enabled in Supersu cause some issues, and this could be one of them.
------
Other than that, all other user apps work fine. System apps & roots apps also work fine until Supersu v2.37.
------
Anyways, I need someone to confirm what I have observed and if it is indeed the reason why the mod breaks.

---
PS: I got the mod to work, no issues now. But I wonder why only that part of the settings app failed to function. @pemell, I hope you can find a permanent solution to this problem as not everyone can go back and do a clean reflash.

glad it works for you now @jnx_r

I only wish you could fix the navbar height for me, 48dp is bigger than what I'm comfortable with. 42 would be just fine.

---
Anyways, I think that the issue was caused because of root getting messed up.
Alternatively, there is another possibility that it could be some Gapps, because I updated Google services and Play store to something which isn't normally available for download via play store.

Are you thinking of porting it to other lollipop devices? I can send my Settings.apk if you are. I've been wanting this forever.

 

[pemell]

What devices you got?

 

[aouerfelli]

What devices you got?

falcon (Moto G 2013)

 

[pemell]

Whats wrong with the navbar layout for falcon?? Shouldn't be any issue...

Oh, I was talking about porting the animation scale, the navbar issue isn't my problem.

 

[pemell]

Haha sorry, my bad.

Sure I can fix this for you. Just upload it here or send me a link to it,

Cheers
