Help me test? Rooted boox device needed.
Hello,
I have a boox go 10.3 but getting root access is more problematic than anticipated before go further in getting help I would love to have someone check something for me. In my research i found a mention of someone who was successful in adding writing support to certain apps. Soon after that when I kept digging I found something that explains it well. Hence I want to root my device. Titel: Onyx Boox handwriting optimisation in any app https://gist.github.com/calliecamero...8bd493380e3b7e The app I am mostly interested in testing is the Kanji Study app. Here are the needed bits of info: Code:
The package name for Kanji Study is: com.mindtwisted.kanjistudy And the "view key" (the name of the class in the code) is: com.mindtwisted.kanjistudy.svg.KanjiStrokeView So if someone can test this on any patched boot device that would great. Even better would be a short video of it working would be greatly appreciated. And if you wish I can send cup of coffee your way. This for the troubles. |

I don't have any pen Onyx.
That eac_config is a bit of a rat's nest. I don't like text configurations of 1/2 a MB. (Ok, my Poke5 seems to have a lot smaller one than my Poke3.) There are lots of undocumented parameters for every app. There was a DPI default of 350 (on a 300 DPI device) that has worked its way into many settings. Also, "contrast" a/k/a "Dark Color Enhancement" is set to a default of 30 which makes fonts look thick and blotchy. Set it to 0. (There is also the stock /system/etc/fonts.xml which substitutes goofy Onyx fonts for some weights of Roboto.) Last edited by Renate; 07-02-2024 at 07:01 AM. |

Hmm, this is the error I get:
Code:
C:\Users\User>adb shell Go103:/ $ cp /onyxconfig/eac_config /sdcard cp: /sdcard/eac_config: Permission denied Is that safe to do as it can be ofc? |

Ha, tnx for the quick response. I went to google and found the same answer.
Permission denied And: Code:
C:\Users\User>adb root adbd cannot run as root in production builds Can't even open the file on the device it self. I can copy it but place it back in with android as I lack permissions. Even though my file browser has root permissions and can see the files. |

Got it fixed. Now editing the file. Never used root, so I had to do research.

It works perfect, only some app specific things that need fixing minor. Tnx for all the help Renate. Give me 2 weeks and will tell you how I feel about it.
