Application installs sdcard mount scripts for XA2. It's required to restart android support (aliendalvik), or reboot device once after installing 9.0.9 version, or any newer if you installing this application for the first time.

Application automatically modifying android desktop files to make it accept parameters.
You can use latest version of Mimer (https://openrepos.net/content/llelectronics/mimer) to assign default web browser directly to selected android apps.

But it's better to assign default browser to "Android selector" action and use handy popup dialog

Package installs sharing plugin and replaces old Android ShareUI plugin.

I finally managed to solved it.

It was a problema with the Openrepos app Storeman.

See issue #7 in github.
When performing an RPM upgrade (e.g.: with `zypper update`), there's a transient moment when both the old and the new package are on the system. and the un-install scriplet of the old version kills the just newly installed new versi...

..oh.. I just noticed you're currently reading github as I type.

Hey @coderus,
after every update I have the issue that this app will reinstall itself after every reboot. I am using the Xperia XA2 Dual SIM. The behaviour is as follows:
1. Update this app
2. Reboot device (android runtime autostart is activated in the sfos settings) and directly open the settings app
3. After reboot try to open an android app. The android app won't open even after several trys
4. After some minutes a statusbar notification will notify that 'The android app org.coderus.aliendalvikcontrol has been installed successfully'
5. After this notification I am able to start android apps again

For me sharing of media gallery pictures works again, what is really nice :) But the phone is kind of laggy after installation,  i don't know if its the installation of Dalvik control itself, but i have flickering and crashing Android apps. Open camera even seems to be darker. So unfortunately i desinstalled it again :( :'(

For me sharing media from an ext4 SD-card does not work, the app crashes if doing so. Is a bug the problem or the format of my SD-card? Thanks!

After 3.2.0.12 update is Nemo and SD-mount script, for XA2, broken.

Found this in the ChangeLog:
https://together.jolla.com/question/214571/release-notes-320-torronsuo/#...
"Pictures/videos on SD card are not visible to Android apps."

A feather. I tried to do this in Android Settings - Sound - Touch Sound and it didn't remove the sound from whatsapp and notifications only vibrate. Is there another alternative for removing this sound? 
Thank

Coderus, privet! :-)
Is it feasible to change the color calculation for the "one hand mode" to something like the "opposite" of the top bar? I have a red coloured app and almost don't see the "finger circle".
Thank you!

I installed this on my XA2 dual sim, and at first it works. But after a while the AD control menu changes to the android 4.4 -version, meaning that I can launch only Downloads, and it shows the options for touch sounds, mock locations and non-market apps. A reinstall of AD control fixes this, but the problem re-occurs after a while. I have no idea what triggers this, the device (and AD) has been rebooted at least a few times before this happens.

This may happen when ad control crashes. I'd like to see logs of ad control, if possible.

run command when problem reproduced:
devel-su journalctl -al -n 1000 /usr/bin/aliendalvik-control > /home/nemo/Documents/ad.log

 

Will create ad.log file in Documents, send me this file.

Ok, I will try without. And I also reliased that I didn't remove “ad control ” before I reset android support last time (Also there were app for android notifications that I didn't remove. Might also be part of the problem)
Update: I've had no problems after last reset. I tried first without ad ctrl and then I installed it. So it seems to be working

Is it possible that aliendalvik control could damage android support or is the another cause. My android support keeps stopping and restarting after running just couple of minutes. (Happened three times in two weeks and I had to reset android support after every incident)

Everything is possible. Check if not happen without ad control, and tell if there are steps for reproducibility
