[APP] NEW! CM7 LS HDMI Sound App V1.2 (Long Press Search FAST ACCESS!)

[morrislee]

Took me a few hours to first know how to write an app, and I got this working! (Root required!)

Donation is appreciated!

You may use this on the new CM7 based ROMs to toggle your sound easily, devs, feel free to add it to your ROMs

Version 1.2 add support for better status tracking and keeps screen on when enabled

Version 1.1 adds the ability to launch from Long Press Search button!!! Much more convenient!

If you are running a ROM with this built in, you need to update it using this zip (Backup Mirror)

If you downloaded directly from your device, yeah, the extension sometimes gets trimmed, I am not sure why, but it downloads as apk on my laptop in windows

It is a toggle button. It runs the script in the background. First run will require root

Hello!
I use Neutrino 2.2 GT with Faux Kernel ad installed your App.
But somehow I can't hear a noice if I turn your App on.
I tried everything like restarting the phone but nothing solved my problem.

Check and make sure you allowed it for root. Sometimes i press no by mistale when it asks...

I haven't tried this yet either.

I actually wanted it to be in the CM7 notification toggle widgets, but i do not know how to add it there, must have to build from the original source or something. Doesnt look that easy.

CM7 team, maybe you can help???

Wonder if you could add a new feature in your app that allows to hide the soft keyboard toggle. That thing pops up all the time while I am using my lapdock.. annoying..

I think I found the necessary parameters to do that. PM me where to send the test version. I probably wont be able to send it over right away, i am still out of my house

Edit: NVM, I can't seem to do that under SDK, probably requires the framework handling or overriding with NDK. I can disable keyboard pop up within the apps I create, but once the app is not in focus, keyboard respond the same as if nothing happened.

Even if I make it a service, there is no available features for me to disable keyboard globally.

I can, however, use a Broadcast event onreceive to see if the phone is "charging"(or docked, whichever is handled by Atrix on CM7) and prompt the user if they want to switch keyboard to something like this. So, this is one way if the dock is detected, ask if the user want to switch keyboard? But I can't get the permissions to pass the onReceive properly... I am too noob

Another possibility, but this is going to be hard unless CM7 team jumps in, add the docking listener to the default keyboard itself, therefore, if the keyboard itself sees the phone is "docked", dont bother showing up for text edit text fields

I wonder if the Sound Switch can't be handled by the event of pluggin in the cable insted of an app or a widget.

plug in the cable -> start script *sound over hdmi*
plug out the cable -> start scrout *sound over speaker*

CM 7 has HDMI enabled as soon as the screen is on. More of a software limitation right now.

No hardware call is passed from what I can understand
