These mods have now be included in CM-5.0.5. So I have taken down the links. Please download CM-5.0.5 and install. If you have issues with it then post them here please.
I would first like to thank those that have helped me along the way. Thanks ChainsDD for helping me realize Android development isn't that hard. Thanks Cyanogen for the awesome roms and for the inspiration to innovate. Love your cool features. And lastly thanks to all the other devs for the great mods (optedOblivion and arctu to name a few)
Alright on to the details.
The mod has options to turn them on or off, but they cannot be used together. This is by design because if you are skipping songs and the screen wakes up then you are wasting battery and taking events away from the lock screen. (May change this later if you guys want)
1st Mod: (TrackballWake)
- Allows the user to wake the screen using the trackball (No extra apps its built-in to OS)
- Option is under the System Settings -> Sound & Display -> Trackball Settings -> Trackball wakes screen
- Option is off by default
2nd Mod: (TrackballSkip)
- Allows the user to skip to the next song if music is playing and the screen is off.
- This is done by double-tapping the trackball while the screen is off.
- A double-tap is two consecutive presses within about half a second.
- Option is under Music App -> Settings -> Use trackball to skip
- Option is off by default
Two different versions now:
1) trackball-SuccessW-WSv01.zip - This includes the Successive Notifications v0.4
2) trackball-NoSuccessW-WSv01.zip - This does not include Successive Notification v0.4
This should fix the force close issues for people as the previous version had a new implementation of Successive Notifications which apparently has some bugs. If you have problems with Successive Notifications then post in that thread please.
If you get a force close or unexpected behavior, please put it on pastebin.com and post the link on this thread. Please include which version you are using and what happened.
Donation:
Please donate if you like my work. It helps keep me motivated and working hard on Android.
Install:
- Nandroid Backup
- Simple install CM-5.0.5
Again, note for now you cannot use these two mods together (and TrackballWake takes precedence)
Source is on Github now.
