@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.

The app has been submitted to the Open Store and should be reviewed by the Ubports maintainers (it seems):

This app needs to be reviewed manually
'unconfined' not allowed

You can also download it from Github (link in the first post). All features of the latest 16.04 build should work.

I have a working build for 20.04: https://github.com/paulcarroty/indicator-upower

Feel free to test it. Submitting /sys/class/power_supply/ will be helpful in adding support for your device.

@volatius you can type different server inside Cinny UI.

@peat_psuwit any plans for Noble port to Xperia X or this is end of the road?

Hey, a few minutes ago there was a discussion about project dependency with Telegram and only two of my messages with links to Kremlingram were removed as "off-topic", but many funny messages like "don't know who to blame in Russian-Ukrainian" are still there.

In my personal opinion, this is far from fair play, so I ask for comments from community members.

@cheniek hope it's fixed in OTA-5, can't reproduce it.
