Per app eink "optimizations"
You've all seen the "E-ink Center" under the "Control Center" on Onyx devices.
It lets you customize a bunch of settings on a per app basis. And maybe you're thinking, "I don't want it to customize anything, just behave normally and I'll use competent apps. End of discussion." The problem with settings is that they're often not transparent. Maybe you think that some app starts looking different. Maybe you set the DPI override to some strange number. There are seventy-seven separate settings for each app. Are you sure that they are all what you want them to be? I can see that I've got 43 apps where the DPI is 350! I'm not saying that they are all apps that I use. Spoiler:
Ultimately I will make this be able to do updates. Right now, it's 100% safe and read only. You can try this if you like. Just rename it without extension. Code:
C:\>adb push onyxcfg data/local/tmp C:\>adb shell # cd /data/local/tmp # chmod 755 onyxcfg # ./onyxcfg /onyxconfig/eac_config -d # ./onyxcfg /onyxconfig/eac_config The second command will list all the packages and how they differ from the default. You probably need to be rooted to see /onyxconfig/eac_config Last edited by Renate; Yesterday at 08:31 AM. |

So, like everything about Onyx, it's more complicated than it seems.
There are two different "default" settings. Let's say that you adjust an app's settings. Then you install for the first time a new app. That will take its settings from the last time you played with any app's settings. This is a new version and it should make things clearer. It also describes update modes. Note also that while the Eink Center relies on UiSystem, the deeper settings and actual savings of settings needs kcb-release, i.e. com.onyx. Edit: If you plan on playing directly with eac_config, make sure that it stays: Code:

So, just to clarify...
The eac_config holds per app configurations. It can also hold per activity configurations under the per app, but this seems rarely used. Your configuration may list packages that you have never run or even have. My Poke3 had 400 kB of cruft, my Poke5 80 kB. Code:
onyxcfg -? // usage onyxcfg eac_config // full dump onyxcfg eac_config com.whatever.demo // dump single package onyxcfg eac_config -l // list packages onyxcfg eac_config -d // show default |
