Settings binary help needed - Android General

Hi, i am trying to make a run script action in tasker to use the settings binary to change font_scaling only while in one particular app, so i need actually more help with the settings binary itself than tasker, as i do know what is needed on the tasker side, but i cant get the command to work in terminal.
If i do
settings get system font_scaling
response is 1.0 if it is set to standard in system settings, but if i try to
settings put system font_scaling= 1.3
like it is set if i switch to big fonts in system settings and then do the get again it is still set to 1.0 and the font is small. So i thought i need to do something like
settings --user current put system font_scaling= 1.3
but that didnt work as well, also if i replace "current" with the user id o get from whoami while not being root, it just doesnt work, but i am pretty sure that it has to do with the user id or the way i specify the user id. Would be cool if someone who has used the settings binary a bit more can give me a hint.

[Q] Can't disable sweep2wake in sultan kernel

Does anyone has the same problem?
Even if I choose not to install sweep2wake in aroma, I still get it.
Applied powerful mod reset and cleared cache and dalvik before reinstalling kernel but still the same.
I've tried using ES explorer to edit the sweep2wake_sw to 0(disabled0, but it would change to 2(enabled with light) after restart
I'm using ARHD 7.3
Did you set the rights right, the file has to be executable, so a chmod +x should do the trick...

Strange that sweep2wake didn't get disabled for you. 89z_kernel can only be modified with a root text editor.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using xda app-developers app
Using root browser, I've set both the s2w switch and 99 kernel to rwxrwxrwx and restarted the phone. But it didn't work still
Another thing i tried was to execute 99kernel manually. It works, but the setting does not stick.
just select the third option no,not the second one.
As long as I've installed using aroma, I probably don't have to meddle with the permissions for it to work properly.
But anyway, I've wiped the phone and reinstalled ARHD 7.3 with stock rom. After which I installed the sultan rom again.
And I still can't disable sleep2wake

Try the following:
-mount /system rw
-edit the script in init.d
-execute the script
-reboot device

in kernel tuner, press menu button and select check comaptibility, i hope it helps..
Try another file explorer and another editor than es file explorer to disable it.
I had the same problem once, I just used another app and it worked.
Thanks all for your help and advice. I've decided to just install bricked kernel instead and all is now good.

[4.3+] [Root] App Ops for Root (Version 1.1)

As you may know, Google has remove App Ops on Android 4.4.2. This app helps you to bring it back
Root device only for now
What is App Ops
App Ops is an activity, within the Settings app, that allows users to enable or disable operations on a per-app basis. These operations cover many common scenarios identified by permissions (e.g., read contacts, write contacts, access location), though it is not a pure one-to-one mapping.
Operations blocked by App Ops are inaccessible by the affected app, though that may vary by device.
Toggle-able permissions
- Access notifications
- Alarm volume
- Audio focus
- Bluetooth volume
- Call phone
- Camera
- Draw on top
- Keep awake
- Location
- Master volume
- Media buttons
- Media volume
- Modify calendar
- Modify call log
- Modify clipboard
- Modify contacts
- Modify settings
- Notification volume
- Play audio
- Post notification
- Read calendar
- Read call log
- Read clipboard
- Read contacts

- Record audio

It's weird that this thread has no activity.. it's a proper mod tbh.
After clicking to "Install AppOps Root", the device reboots, but nothing seems to change. Starting the Installer again still shows the same message: "Click to install AppOps Root..."
If I click "Launch Stock App Ops", I see Settings that promptly closes.
I am rooted and running a 4.4.2 ROM.
What am I missing?
App is working great. But can you please change the Icon in the drawer? It is really hard to see with this dark grey color

Not for me.
I have run through installation twice and didn't see any errors.
I just got prompted to d/l new firmware for my note 3 today. and after hearing they took this out. I declined it! keeping an eye on this, hopefully there will be a way to bring this back for non rooted devices. as my phone is only 2 months old. and I wana wait 4-6 months to make sure its not faulty B4 I go rooting it. plus there arent enough stable ROMS for note 3 anyway. I like Wanam as its stock ish without bloat. so waiting for wanam!
Reboot after install
Im using CM11.0 and the phone reboots after I click "Install AppOps Root" but seems to work fine with the "Lauch Stock AppOps" option.
Good job. Thank you.
Works great for me running Stock 4.4.2 on Nexus 5.
Can i use this app with ART?

thanks developer
Awesome. I was looking for something like this.

It only installs one apk in /system/priv-app/
If you are rooted and have titanium backup or other toolbox you can easily uninstall it (titanium can uninstall system apps); second easiest option is to use ES File Explorer or other root file manager; other ways include adb shell commands (mount / rm), and finally another method that actually doesn't require root is via custom recovery that has a builtin file manager like twrp does... you would mount /system and delete the apk from /system/priv-app

Thanks have titanium backup installed, will just use that if I want to uninstall, good to know for other root apps that I might use in the future
:good:
How does this compare to the likes of XPrivacy. It appears this completely denies the permission which would cause certain apps to crash vs providing random false data.

XPrivacy is way more powerful and allows you to revoke many more permissions, but App Ops although limited, works quite well. You cannot remove network access with it, but I removed location, contacts, vibrate, camera, from some apps, and none crashed so far. I've been using App Ops since it was introduced in Jelly Bean, and still do in KitKat.

I still get a quick reboot and nothing else.
On 4.4.2, rooted and have given the app SuperUser privileges.

If it works, you should see a new app named "App Ops [Root]" in your app drawer. Anyway, which is your ROM?

Fix for Menu Button Missing(no Root required)

This does not require ROOT or any special permissions. It does require Secure Settings which is free and should be downloaded for you if you don't have it. Check out the video for the simple How-to-Use demo.
N.B. you need to download Secure Settings (free) from Google Play if you don't already have it.
Need Tasker

Doesn't need Tasker, needs Secure Settings(free)
Add Secure Settings and it works without Tasked (may require reboot and a couple of seconds to start)

How can I enabled /disable autoboot permissions from Apps during startup in Pie?

In earlier Android Version (e. g. CM) I can open a list, which Apps have the permissions and rights for auto boot during start the phone. I could enable or disable the right of the apps on an easy way.
In Pie (XZP) I didn't found anymore this list. I can open each app after the other and must tap in to the enhanced permissions to see, if the Apk starts at boot up or not. But I can not change this one.
Does I haven't found the point in the settings or how I can change this one?
In the appstore the boot manager all for older version and/or doesn't work anymore with Orego and later. In the Dev menu I can only stop a running Service, but this is only temporary.

Remove system apps Android 10.3.0?

Nothing works- using apps, root explorer method, terminal method. Am i missing something?
xXx no limits rom you can uninstall system apps with the profile included
Try it with the computer and adb commands...[emoji6]
Gesendet von meinem SM-G975F mit Tapatalk
No need for other roms or a computer.
Just a magisk module and the Android terMinal emulator.
The module is the "debloater".

Es file explorer or Titanium Backup can. (ofcourse you need root)
Or you could use Tomatot's script.
trying all this method but not working

I usually use this Magisk module but as the name dictates, Magisk is required: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-terminal-debloater-debloat-t3584163
