Since the 4.3 Update, I'm getting an error when trying to install:
"Nothing provides the dbus-python required..."
How shall that be bypassed?

Dear Schturman!

Good morning. I'm using Jolla C. Alien Dalvik stop works perfectly, but Alien Dalvik start don't. Are you going to update this Alien Dalvik start / restart in near future? If both AD start & stop would work, the Situation app worked fine both with starting and stopping of android support.service. Unfortunately AD does not contain any timer to controll (on / off) its operation.

Thank you for your fine works.

Hmmm, what exactly not work ? It use the same command like before for restarting AD: systemctl restart aliendalvik

I don't know what you want to change here... It restart dalvik without any problem.

Dear Schturman,

Thank you for your quickly response. When I open Android supportTM from setting and keep it as open. So:

When the ASTM is function and I push AlienDalvik stop, will I see the this ADTM support stops. Ok.

Then I push Dalvik restart ... From the open Android support I see thant nothing happens. Jolla C gives notification as "Cant't refresh, Dalvik is NOT ..."

So I suppose that this support is till not working. Do I have right? Jolla C has at the moment the SFOS version 2.1.0.9.

Question: Do I have to input something with Terminal?

Thank you for your help, again.

Hi. My app working like it should to work. It only for restart dalvik when it already running. If you want to start dalvik u need to use: systemctl start aliendalvik. And the more simpler way it just to start any android app and dalvik will be started automatically.

If you want to use it with Situations app, it better if you will use command line in the app or add my Alien Dalvik stop for stop dalvik and add any android app to start dalvik again.
You also gave me idea... Maybe I will create something like timer for start-stop dalvik inside the setting app, like patch...

Dear Schturman,

Thank you for reply again. Yes, I have used opening of Android app by Situation to start Aliendalvik.service. However this causes increased energy consumption Jolla C, which eats battery very fast allready. I have tried internal start up, but terminal does not work as it should. Just flow of mysterical numerical code numbers. Also Situation does not follow direct orders... I should approciate very highly if you could produce timer for Android support. Good luck for your work. I am very frustrated of the peculier operation of Jolla C so far.It has a lot of good but ...

What you mean ? Install it how you want... from Warehouse app or download latest rpm file and install from any file manager by pressing button "install".

What is the difference between this and systemctl stop aliendalvik.service?

One big difference, I suppose, is that, unlike systemctl, this app asks you to place a huge security hole into /etc/sudoers, potentially giving any program you might run complete root access without restrictions, and without needing a password or anything. I'm not going to install this. A far more secure way to go about something like this would be to just have a suid root helper binary in the rpm. It would also be far more user friendly (would not require the user to install sudo or edit any config files).
