Small fixes to the new terminal setup tool, k I'm done now

To test it, install the module, reboot and run the following on an app like termux

su -c hn

Also enabled reactions on the channel if any of y'all wanted to use them

Actual zip, omg I'm so sorry for sending a rar file, i was exhausted lol

Fixed terminal setup tool

Looks like someone (me) had forgotten to include the file needed for it to work 🤦‍♂

To anyone having issues on Android 12-13 on the latest versions of the module (gestures breaking/returning to 3 buttons), i might have a fix in the works, tho i'll need to gather some information from actual device

I'll need one of you to run/copy-paste the following commands on a terminal on termux and send a screenshot of the result of the second command (for the second command i'll need just the output that shows under Android)

su -c cmd overlay fabricate --target android --name test android:dimen/navigation_bar_frame_height 0x05 0x00

su -c cmd overlay list

i need this simply to determine the package name of the overlay

if it all works out i might release a test build tomorrow (i'm somewhat busy tonight so i might not have the time)

test using fabricated overlays to avoid bootloops and other issues on Android 12+ devices

Due to the issues caused by compiling overlays on the fly, I've been thinking about going back to using prebuilt overlays

However before I make that decision I'd like to know how many of you actually use the terminal configuration tool and if so how many just to fix the gcam lag (which i could add as an option in a prebuilt version if needed)

Fabricated Overlays build test 2 (ANdroid 12+)

- Added Gcam lag fix option during install
- Small keyboard option now should work with fabricated overlays

If you wish to undo the fabricated overlay changes run the following command on a terminal app

su -c hnr

Options like hide pill and the terminal config (for Android 12+) will be adapted to Fabricated overlays at a later date

I'll soon be out for awhile, so be patient with bug reports as i'll answer then when i can

Miscellaneous bugfixes in the installer

As for the results of this pool, i've came to a conclusion

After thinking for some time, i've realized that prebuilt overlays aren't going to be an absolute solution as i've had multiple cases of them failing before for users even when built to be as compliant as possible to the latest Android releases

What makes an overlay work or not is seemingly random regardless of tool used to build them (haven't stopped looking into potential causes)

So, i've decided to focus on fabricated overlays where possible

Apologies if this seems like i'm disregarding your votes, however returning to prebuilts most likely won't really fix much of anything (in comparison to using fabricated overlays which i'm working on when i have the time) and will just make the module less versatile

I shall be polishing things up for the next release hopefully tomorrow, should hopefully bring the hide pill option to the fabricated overlays implementation, and while likely not feasible i'll study the probability of getting the hide keyboard buttons feature to work with it as well

I hope you all understand and have a good day/night 😊

Fabricated overlays build beta 4

- Added support for hiding the gesture bar/pill using fabricated overlays

To undo fabricated overlay changes run the following on a terminal app

su -c hnr

Alternatively you may remove the ol2.sh file on /data/adb/service.d and reboot

Fabricated Overlays test 5

- Improved hide pill code (should work properly on more devices now)

- Fixed uninstall command (su -c hnr)

- Test/Channel builds now no longer require Fox Module Manager to be installed

Fabricated Overlays test 6

- Fixed a small bug in the hide pill option which could potentially ignore previous fullscreen/immersive settings

- Experimental Terminal Config support for Fabricated overlays (su -c hn)

Fullscreen/Immersive Gestures

Fabricated Overlays test 7

- Embedded overlay noscript into startup noscript to remove the need for an uninstall command (cleaner code)

If it all works out the Fabricated Overlays module can now be regularly uninstalled without the need for an uninstall command

It's recommended to remove the ol2 file from previous FO versions in data/adb/service.d to make sure Test 7 is working

Fullscreen/Immersive Gestures

Fabricated overlays test 8

- Fix revamped noscript and miscellaneous clean up (thanks to all the testers)

- Readded uninstall command so one can uninstall the module without a reboot on A12+ (su -c hnr)

Bringing back the option to hide the keyboard buttons will be attempted for the next release (a bit of additional work will be needed for Android 13)

Mind you, i cannot guarantee it'll work for all devices/ROMs

A test build will be published tomorrow when i have the time

I've been thinking, for awhile I've noticed Substratum Lite has been capable of generating reliable overlay APKs regardless of Android version

If I were to rebuild my module as a Substratum theme, it'd greatly simplify my work while making it easier to potentially provide further customizations down the line

It'd also allow you to easily toggle the changes on/off without the need of a reboot

It would involve sacrificing the terminal setup tool however I could accommodate for that by providing additional navbar size options in the theme

I would like to know your general opinion on the topic

First test build of the Substratum version of the module

Btw, the substratum theme brings back the hide keyboard buttons option

Disabling the back gesture is currently missing tho i'll add it ASAP if i figure out how to do it with substratum😅

Disclaimer:
This has only been tested with the Substratum Lite app, i cannot guarantee it'll work on regular Substratum
