Switch to ART? - LG G Watch

I don't see it in Developer Options, but was curious if it could be done manually...

Pretty sure that's not possible yet. As soon as android L will be released you'll get it on the watch, but the dev setting to switch is a Nexus only I think.

Well, I just looked in /system/lib and libart.so and libart-compiler.so do not exist so I guess it's a no go.

[Q] - Windows Animation Speed?

Does anyone know how to speed up the window animation speed in the ROM without using Spare Parts? How to cook it into the ROM?

Great question. The quickest method which came to mind was to use look at the Spare Parst app source code and find how its controlling the window animation speed.
I purely speculate, there are two ways of controling window animation speed.
1) modifying a setting in a preference file in /data.
2) setting something in the android system via java.
Unfortunately the master source would be android.git.kernel.org (specifically http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/development.git;a=tree;f=apps/SpareParts;hb=HEAD ) but the server is still offline. I'm not able to quickly find the Spare Parts app source code through google searching. If somebody does have a link to the online source code for Spare Parts, I'd be interested in taking a look and seeing how it works!
The only semi helpful link I could find is an older XDA thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-708774.html . Unfortunatley it appears he has taken his github files offline so I wasn't able to find the Spare Parts java source code.
Sorry for not having a specific answer but hopefully the ideas provide a lil more guidance!

Thanks for looking into this. I will post back if I find anything but as of now I havent found squat.

Gotcha.
Add (or edit that number..higher=faster) this line in the build.prop:
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=100
(MAKE SURE there's still a blank line at the end of all your build.prop tweaks, or it won't "take".)

Lol... It gets wonky over 110 in most roms.. In fact, 100 is at the high range. Most chef's that add this usually come in about 90, but I've never had issues with 100.
LMK how it works for you.

Yea, I was rocking 100... But... When I changed it up to 200 nothing changed. Gonna drop down very low to test theory.
Something that SpareParts+ is doing is making it haul ass. Much faster than what it is now.
Changed to 50 and see no difference. Hmmm.....
Are you clearing Dalvik in between changes? (If, that is, you're in one of your awesome deodexed roms?)
I think all your apps are opted in relation to build.prop guidelines, so that would be needed.

wasn't much information provided on what this build.prop line edit actually does or how android implements the number values. so researched this setting - windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec.
first found an older thread on XDA about it. they claim you can adjust the value after boot but it won't change anything until after a reboot. i.e. setprop *should* work on changing the value, but won't have any impact. seems have to edit/save actual build.prop and restart.
also they state 55 is the default value and the android framework doesnt recognize values under 35.
they also say: "That value does not affect the framerate, but how many touch events are reported to the apps; this saves some cpu if the user keeps touching the screen." all this information is taken from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=813309
read on another forum post, "To enable better scrolling speed through lists, I changed windowsmgr. max_events_per_sec=55 to windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=60. Scrolling through the app drawer and contacts and any lists really is now smoother. " - http://androidforums.com/droid-x-all-things-root/164447-mod-lots-build-prop-edits.html
not able to find anything from google/android developers to reference as an "official" source .. maybe a grep through aosp code could reveal where android reads and implements this build.prop setting change.
hopefully some of that information helps sheds a bit more light on this "tweak", i.e. default value, range, areas it will impact, etc.
After reading your post I would believe this is not the golden egg I am looking for. Im going to decompile SpartParts+ and see what, if anything I can find by poking around.

No, I didnt clear cache but I can try... Cant hurt, right? I just dont think this the correct mod... But what the heck/.... Lets see if clearing any thnig helps.
Nope, nothing.

first approach which comes to mind: i'd prob grep through there looking for any strings regarding window animation speed. i forget what it is called in the real app, but that is probably a great starting point. then start back tracing the code .. i don't deal much with smali but i'm sure you'll be able to trace it down.
keep us updated!

Sorry to sidetrack you Scott!
I "thought" I knew what I was talking about...
Good luck in the effort, bro.
(and I'll also stop editing that line into every single build.prop I see, lol.)
Thanks for the work.

That was my plan of attack.. somewhat.. Lets see how complicated the code is in this... iM hoping its using an echo command or something similar... Because the speed change sticks after a reboot so wouldn't that indicate its writing to a file?

yea, i would agree. wish i had taken a look at the spare parts source code when it was posted on the android aosp site!
i doubt its using echo to send a value to a sysfs file generated by the kernel. my guess would be to a data settings file on the /data partition. at least thats what i'd hope as that would be easy to duplicate!
if you want to post up the smali files, i can try and take a look through. yay for java being so easy to reverse!

Ill drop you a pm for this when I get home. It is NOT the build prop edit posted earlier. That has ZERO to do with animation speed.

much needed apk mod for the community

can anyone modify the last working google music apk to not look for updates and or clone it and make it standalone. I know i for one am looking for something that allows me to have the nexus q enabled music apk and the new one both on my phone at the same time.
or is someone can inform me what to do I will work to try and do it.
I am willing to donate for the guy who can.

If you don't care about using Google Play Music 5.0:
Find old apk (4.5.9 I think)
Uninstall 5.0
Turn off automatic updating in market
Install old apk
???
Profit
This is the only thing I did, wasn't too wowed with the new features of 5.0.
I also don't know what it would take to add the functionality to 5.0 :/
Hope this helps.

Ok well the no updating might not be possible from editing the 4.5.9 app.
I looked around the 5.0 app and it definitely doesn't have the Tungsten support files so it isn't just missing visually
I'm wonder what is involved with porting the Tungsten code to the 5.0 app...

It may be built out but disabled, maybe because they had to disable it to get the contracts for Google music unlimited access.. Wonder if there is a labs type thing in Google music...

Secret Zenwatch 2 menu?

Playing with my zenwatch 2 today, when I accidentally stumbled upon the hardware test menu. Pictures attached
How to get to it:
Enable developer settings
Go to developer settings
Scroll to Manufacturer option
Tap rapidly
Enjoy!
There's no secret. It's hardware testing menu.

Explicit Boot Animation for OnePlus

My OnePlus just didn't feel enough PLUS! When it boots, or when people see it, I want them to know what an awesome brand this is.
So I found these great OnePlus boot animations on Reddit by the user DogeCatBear. My favorite is the
"All red with OnePlus text ending"
https://www.reddit.com/r/oneplus/comments/7qz77g/i_made_boot_animations_from_ufewstrs_oneplus_logo/
Nice!
Perfect ?
?️yeeessssss
I really thought there were going to be boobies here... But the animations are nice still! Good work
Absolutely love it, thanks !
I hate downloading drive links on mobile.
Ugh
What permissions need to be set??
Doesn't work for me :/
Set permissions to rw-r--r--
The octal number is 0644
Err... Why does it say "explicit"?

You could just remove drive's "open by default" to "ask every time". I don't disable it to browse the files I already have in there, and can also choose an app to open, every time I open a drive link
