re-compiled power.shamu.so to re-enable double tap to wake. (no root required)

This solution works for anyone that doesn't want to root their device.
however required a unlocked boot loader.
you can use TWRP file manager to replace below files. (hence not needing root).
(or someone can kindly create a flashable)
I have recomplied the power.shamu.so (replacing the missing codes from https://android.googlesource.com/device/moto/shamu/+/2084f7d0cf50baf394759d175bc28ad80cf7cace^!/ )
What this does is also re-enable the double-tap to wake.
to use,
backup a copy of
/system/lib/hw/power.shamu.so
then copy the attached power.shamu.so to /system/lib/hw/
change the permission of power.shamu.so to 0644
then boot your device. volia... you now have double tap to wake again.
Note. this has been tested with my own nexus 6.

Thanks. I think this would be better in themes n apps section though.

Thank you Sir! I'm going to remove the app and try this on Elix-R!
EDIT: Works great! Thank you again.

Which permissions are 0644?

Thanks that's what I thought I just wanted to make sure

Can I just flash the zip file that's in the beginning of the thread? Also would I need to re-install after wiping and flashing different roms or will it stay?
Figured it out.

nice, although no root required makes no sense considering you have to copy and paste this to /system that requires root... or am i missing something?

You can do it from recovery which has system access even if the ROM doesnt have root privileges.
What I am wondering though is if you can use fastboot to simply boot recovery without flashing it, and would you be able to do that command without unlocking the bootloader? Or does booting a custom system file require it to be unlocked?

Idea is just like rooting.
You need to some how replace the power.shamu.so once, and thats it.
Some people dont like phones to be rooted, as some software are really particular with root such as 'good for ent' or banking app. Idea is so that these people can still have doible tap to wake.
Hence you require a unlocked boot loader.
Eg, i guess i can also repack the file to a flashable zip, then user can just flash from recovery.
Note, i found that your tap needs to be quite consistant (can't be too fast or slow. There is a specific window)

Unsupported Rom/Kernel
Kernel:
- Stock
- Jolla
ROM:
F.A.Q.
Q: Spotify isn't working with that
A: Force enable Viper4Android and turn FX Mode to compatible. Then restart both applications.
Q: Why ElementalX Kernel?
A: That's the only Kernel who works with Viper except Stock kernel. Elite Kernel may also work but it hasent been updated since the Dev Previews.
Q: Is that also working with the stock rom?
A: Yup. Also works with (nearly) any stock based ROM.

Is there a definite way of checking if it's working? Not by sound?

Yes, just check driver status in viper when something is playing in the background. If it says 'processing', then it's working.
Btw, why would I need custom kernel for viper?

use a file exlorer with root privileges like es or root explorer and go to /etc/init.d directory, create a file and named "08setperm" (without quotes) and add the below lines in the file and save it..
#!/system/sh
setenforce 0
And give full permission (rwxrwxrwx)
reboot and you should be good. if for some reason your init.d script doesn't launch then download and install universal init.d tool and enable it.

Nice that someone is trying to get Viper4Android to work on Nexus 5x with Android 7.0 (Nougat). Sadly it does not work, tried your way but it does not enable me to get Viper4Android to work in Spotify.
Selinux is in permissive, your viber4android package is in place, audio_effects.conf removed, Android 7 by tupac4u installed and complete factory image installation before all this. No go..
Viper4android driver status does not complain but processing is always "no".

Try some other app like play music, v4a won't work on all apps if they have their own equalizer.

For those who want to use Viper4android with Spotify change fx compatible Mode to compatible in Viper settings. Then Open Spotify and go to Settings->Equalizer that should bring up Viper. Select Force enable and close Viper and Spotify. Open up both again and Boom Viper is there.

How find Android 7 by tupac4u ??
EDIT.
I found him already

Idk if this will work on the new version, but this zip I've attached here sets the previous ElementalX-N5x-1.17 kernel permissive permanently. I'm not on nougat yet, waiting for Xposed.

folder structure inside .zip is flashable but there is shouldn't have a folder before /Meta-INF and /System. so that's why it give error message, just extract it and replace manually.

@chiragkrishna, I tried flashing the zip to enable FingerPrint Wakeup but it did not work. So I updated the file as per the instructions. I guess that's because the zip file has nothing inside the system folder. It works but the value is reset to 0 after reboot. Any permanent solutions?
Update:
Although I tried the hard way by using Init.d script to reset the value to 1 at every boot, it didn't work.
Then I tried using Tasker to set the value, it worked perfectly.
But then I found a video with an easier solution using Kernel Adiutor.

L-OS Can't turn of double tab to wake

I've installed the newest Lineage OS, but I want to turn of "Double Tab to wake". But after one day, it automatically turned on again, but without showing it in the settings (showed that it's turned of). Now I have the question if there is any possibility to turn it off?
Thanks,
Philipp

The setting does not stick after the reboot. You have to enable it and disable it again. Then it should be really disabled until the next reboot.

Okay, thank you. I hope they will fix it soon

I think it may be because you flashed a custom kernel.
Some custom kernels break dt2w

Until they fix this you can use a script to disable it. Use init.d or any automate app to run the script at boot. It'll turn off the tap2wake.
#!/system/bin/sh
tap2wake=/proc/touchpanel/double_tap
echo "0" > $tap2wake

could you maybe tell me how to use this command? Sorry for that, but I am new in that and don't know what to do

Click to collapse
Since you're new to this I'll give you the easiest way to do this.
1. Download the script from the link given below. (or use my last post's code to make a script yourself)
2. Put it in a folder in sdcard.
3. Install 'init.d scripts support' app from play store.
4. Open the app & tick 'try to aquire root privileges'. Grant root access.
5. Tick 'run scripts at boot time' option.
6. Set 'execution delay' to a desired time.
7. Select the folder you put the downloaded file.
Tap2wake disable script - http://www.mediafire.com/file/r4h5z8p1ez21jpi/tap2wakedis.sh
Done. Now every time you reboot, app will execute the scripts in the selected folder which contains our script to disable double tap2wake.
You can always execute the script using ini.d, su.d, tasker, macrodroid etc.

I have some problems with activating it, I've put the error message as attachment maybe you could look over it.

Guide to install 19s Remote Control app on any rom..

Hello guys,
First of all I want to thank @rohitjaiswal for providing the 19s ported remote control apk file.
1) For LOS based roms.
Flash this file first.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/le-2/themes/leeco-letv-remote-control-app-t3605440.
Make sure your Selinux mode is set to permissive for it to
work.
After flashing the remote control zip.
Install ES file explorer and enable root access mode.
Tap on 3 bars on the top left side on ES file explorer.
Tap on Local
Then go to
Device > system > app >
LetvRemoteControl_preinst
Replace the apk in the folder with this apk.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B68NeYfjQVRrOEpzN0NaS2ZkYjg/view?usp=drivesdk
2. For EUI/MiUi/Flyme based roms.
Install ES file explorer and enable root access mode.
Tap on 3 bars on the top left side on ES file explorer.
Tap on Local
Then go to
Device > system > app >
LetvRemoteControl_preinst
Replace the apk in the folder with this apk.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B68NeYfjQVRrVVAzYTN3c3hjODQ/view?usp=drivesdk

Grt! Will test and report back!

It's working for me without the second step, what's the modified apk for?

It needs to be set in permissive to work.
You can flash Overdose Kernel for Le 2. It automatically changes Selinux to permissive.

Ah ok very interesting. I'm not into this kernel thing right now. Could you please tell if it is not causing anything to get more unstable and whether it is not needing more battery
