Whosat · Apr 15, 2014

Just wanted to let you guys know of an open source implementation of the Hall sensors which allow the function of the S'View covers to work on custom ROMs like CM

Mayby you should go back and read again what it does and what it uses before posting crap? Yes it uses the proximity sensor but it also uses the s-view sensor.

But it is no way near how nicely stock works.

Dude, i know. I used it a while ago on CM. At first it seems cool and everything, but after a while it annoys the crap out of you. Every time you accidentally place my finger near the proximity sensor the app goes off and interrupts what you were doing. I'm back on stock now and it's way nicer. Just flashed it yesterday after being on cm for months.

It's not as polished as in stock...

BUT, since version 0.2.x, it's improved a lot, and if pretty fine working

and, as said above it DOES utilize the magnetic sensor, no finger-craziness here

(Look on F-Droid for the latest version)

Try the new relese 0.4.1 it uses only the hall effect sensor, so it will consume less battery

You can answer phone calls not by swiping, by just touch.

Hi guys, anyone currently using this app? How's your battery life with it?

Development progress / support for CM12.1

Development of HallMonitor seems to have stopped since version 0.4.2 (latest commit of the author "durka" is from 22 Jul 2014). This version doesn't support CM12(.1) (see issue 52 on durka's GitHub page).

Installation of the "MagnetOff" Xposed module is not a very useful workaround since you can't use the hall sensor (magnet sensor) anymore and would have to fall back on the proximity sensor (which is a pain in the a**).

The GitHub user "manusfreedom" has added several features and took development up to his version 2.0.2 beta (but his last commit is quite old too, from 21 Sep 2014). Has anyone tested manusfreedoms fork on CM12(.1)? Or does anyone know about a revival of HallMonitor's development? Would be so awesome to have this for CM12.1 :cyclops:
