I use locked brightness at level 4. This solves the problem - the screen is darker and doesn't hurt my eyes anymore.

New release with many fixes.

@Eric-H great job.

Ahoy, there's battery_charging_enabled support in the latest builds and I need beta testers to check the limiting battery's charge.

You need to apply new udev rule from README and install the latest build from Github Actions.

@Eric-H try the next rule with 0664:

ACTION=="add|change", SUBSYSTEM=="power_supply", KERNEL=="battery", RUN+="/bin/chmod 0664 /sys/class/power_supply/%k/charging_enabled", RUN+="/bin/chown phablet /sys/class/power_supply/%k/charging_enabled"  

@Eric-H probably the store review still in progress.

New release arrived, thx to all contributors.

New CinnyWeb app available on OpenStore.

Test builds can be downloaded from Github Actions.

@alagirialagiri submit your Pixel data.

@alagirialagiri new release got many fixes.

Submit your device data - here's the guide.

Please give full details to add this app working

This script does the kernel data collecting and parsing, then sending it over DBus to the QML GUI.

@MrT10001 maybe you got the operator version?

@Salah said in Resurrection of Indicator Upower:

Google Pixel 3a XL

Limited support only, because your device is not in the list. You can help add it by providing sys/class/power_supply and/or /sys/devices/ dirs when the charger cable is plugged in.

@MrT10001 said in Bigger battery for Xperia X:

Definitely glue the battery in place or use strong double sided tape (3m) to stop the battery moving.

This should be in the first post. Better fix the battery cable too.

The bootloader unlock is super easy on this device.

@arubislander Yes, connection established.

@arubislander I don't use Telegram.

@mihael said in Range for manually adjusting brightness:

I change its value to let's say 100

100 it's overkill, try 2 or 4. Also check '*brightness*' with the find command.

@Keneda said in Bigger battery for Xperia X:

I had to replace my screen and after that

Start from find /sys -name brightness.

That said, it's a relatively simple process, no need to even solder!

The XA2 battery is a fraction of a millimeter thicker and just a bit taller, but all I had to do was show a knife to a very small piece of plastic. If your glue is good on the back plate, the cover should stay on nicely.

For the connector to fit you need to carefully peel the black reinforcement part from the flexible cable. Mount the battery on it's face and then you can bend over the cable to the phone connector like so.

Try not to over-bend the cable, otherwise you are risking the connection to fail (which, we are stretching already by doing this).

When the connector is in place everything should work. You should probably let the battery drain to 0% and charge fully a couple of times to make Android battery measurement understand the new capacity

Edit: Just to be on the safe side (and to minimize the risk of fire) you should drain the new battery before doing any of this. It's good practice with batteries even if you don't solder them.

Edit2: Android does not have support for learning a new capacity. I tried compiling a new kernel for the battery but could not find enough documentation for making my own batterydata config.
