    Hello! Not yet. We depend on baksmali to disassemble odex files and unfortunately it has not been updated yet to support 8.1 format.

    *** UPDATE [0.2.0] *** - WakeBlock service binds on runtime (this means that, if the core mod is already installed, you do not need to reboot after app installation/update). The service status shown in the app will automatically update on service binding. This may take some seconds after boot...

    WakeBlock detects system wakelocks, while kernel wakelocks can be blocked by a lot of custom kernels. The wakelock you are looking for is a kernel wakelock and thus cannot be seen in WakeBlock.

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    If you dirty flash a ROM update you cannot use the WakeBlock backups: those are saved to revert the patcher's work. The backups are basically the original framework files. Also, ROM updates usually change the services framework, so putting back the old one could most probably cause a bootloop.

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    We found out Samsung uses a different procedure to package deodexed framework files. We are testing fixes for this right now. I will push an update on the Play Store with specific changelog as soon as a working version is ready!

    It should reboot in TWRP after the patching process is finished and flash the generated automatically. Then it should reboot again normally. Does it boot into TWRP the first time?

    Could you take a log with LiveBoot during the bootloop? It will be saved in /cache/liveboot.log and you can retrieve it in TWRP (mount /cache partition if it isn't by default). Also, it would be very useful to check some file permissions on Samsung ROM. You can do that by executing these...

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    If you find the process to be unbound, it means the app has been updated and you need to reboot. I'm going to try to add support for automatic rebinding and support for alarms blocking as soon as the current release is stable on every device!

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    Does mounting the system partition as read/write and manually flashing /data/data/com.giovannibozzano.wakeblock/files/flash.zip in recovery solve the problem? If it does, I guess this is some OpenRecoveryScript issue I need to look into.

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    Could you also send a log of a normal boot precedure, without WakeBlock? The issue seems to be a missing selinux permission on service binding. It appears Samsung is stricter here... EDIT: I am quite sure the log started when the device was already booted. How did you take it?

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    These are good news (even if they don't seem good :laugh: ). Odex files have a hash written into their headers which changes if the content is modified, but can be faked. Samsung devices could be checking for that hash during boot (or something else has gone wrong). Could you send me a logcat...

    We are currently having some issues with Samsung users. Right now the main problem seems to be the memory shortage in the repackaging process. If you got past it, the last app version could have handled that. I hope to get more positive feedbacks about this. In the end of the patching process...

    Could you try to manually mount system partition in read/write mode in TWRP before flashing the file? I'm quite sure the detected partition name is not the real one.

    You may have to reboot again after replacing the database with the old one. If it still does not work I'm afraid it could be a version too old to backup the saved data.

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    The core mod is already installed, all you have to do is reboot your device and the app service will bind.

    Does the app show "Service Bound" if you reboot your device? If something got flashed then the process should have terminated correctly and WakeBlock should already be installed.

    I guess you have a test version which was not from Google Play. You should try to uninstall and reinstall it from Google Play. If you really need to save the wakelocks data (older versions did not have backups), you can backup /data/data/com.giovannibozzano.wakeblock/databases

    Dirty falshing a ROM should override WakeBlock's core mod and you will need to install it again. If you don't, the wakelocks will be acquired as normal. Did you install it again after updating? Unblocking and blocking again shouldn't really make any difference, as they are basically stored...

    Sorry, I was browsing with my phone and couldn't see it. The problem is there is no log about WakeBlock in the logcat you sent. Are you sure you ran the app while logging?

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    From recovery go into /data/data/com.giovannibozzano.wakeblock/databases and delete all files. This will clear all wakelocks settings in the app.

    If you uninstalled the app and then reinstalled it, all its data was lost. This is normal, but from now on there will be automatic backups, so you should be able to uninstall it without losing everything (Google stores backups on Drive).

    When you update the app, it is currently normal for the service to unbind. All you have to do is reboot (no need to run the patcher). Was the version you were running before the update the one downloaded from here or the one from the Play Store? If you update an app downloaded from the Play...

    Post [APP] [MOD] [7.0+] WakeBlock: Blocking the drain before it is too late (Core v0)

    It is currently not possible. I should think of a way to let the app check if the framework is already modded or not by further modifying the framework. The only way to find out right now is by trying to bind the process on boot. Anyway, if you run the patcher again, it should just fail, if it...

    This is strange, battery optimization shouldn't be a problem, I've always had that on. Do you have any process killer app or aggressive doze setting turned on? Does it unbind after just a few seconds, minutes or does it take longer?
