[MOD] Xposed Additions mod: More versatile buttons

[wmtype]

Dear gerhardo,

i am really glad that i found your mod. I have the same error with the original module like others. I mean using external keyboard doesn't work., german layout isn't supported etc...

All errors (almost all are gone with your apk. BUUUTTTTTTT my settings aren't saved. So it renders all useless. I read that the latest version you provide doesn't save the settings.

Can you provide me the version before? 2015-02-22: 3.5.0.2 (the one with fixed shortcut supports)
I am using Lollipop currently.

I tried to compile your project from github with android studio but i get errors And in general i have no idea about android studio.

Hello
Old versions are available by modifying the download URL
http://web.comhem.se/gerhardo/ts/XPosedAdditionsGB-3.5.0.2.apk

I have not updated the mod in a while. My changes were not accepted in the original mod and the mod author has done a lot of structure changes so it is hard to keep up.
Also, I have no phone to use the mod on. So I do not plan more updates.
Did try to build it, it was OK for me in branch 3.4.x.g4.p (that contains a few more changes than latest release).

Thank You!!! Didn't expect such fast response I tried the url like http://web.comhem.se/gerhardo/ts/ but got an error.

BUUUTTT (

This version complains that xposed isn't activated. I don't know if it is because of lollipop or selinux?! Have you any more recent version than those both? With working shortcuts and saved preferences?

I don't get why the original dev didn't implement your changes?? They still aren't fixed by now in the official most recent version.

I wil try the mentioned build in android studio. If i have any questions i come back

The version I could build:
http://web.comhem.se/gerhardo/ts/app-debug-unaligned.apk
(The changes are in the git commits, do not know if your problems are fixed or if there are new problems)

The original author did not motivate why he did not want to merge. The pull requests are still on GitHub (will close them now).
No hard feelings for that - this is a hobby project, you do what you find fun only. Merging changes done by others can be boring. But I will not contribute.

I guess, this was it I am still not really trusting that app, if the preferences will survice a reboot. But it seems so. THANK YOU

Also my Android Studio can compile it meanwhile. But you really saved me

One question beside: I have that feeling that xposed additions doesn't work very well while on phone call. The buttons don't react then. Android behavious in this situtations like this module isn't installed and only the "default" button combination work.

Did you notice anything in this direction?

Do not remember if this intentional or how button events information gets presented to the module, do not see anything related when browsing.
Hint: The main implementation for hooking key events is in PhoneWindowManager.
