CosmoCtl - howto set it up?

[LinuxGuy]

Hi

I was made aware of the cosmoctl app https://apktada.com/app/com.jp.ssipa.cosmoctl
I installed it (rooted android) but app seemsnot to get root - not working. I am specially interested in the keyboard backlight settings.

Any ideas?

Maybe this version might work? In the readme it mention a feature that requires a rooted Android, so it has been at least tested on a rooted install.

Working fine for me on rooted Android.

AutoActivation of keyboard backlight. Nothing changed.

If it doesn't work at all.
Is it possible to change it by Fn+Shift+B, N?
Have you changed your keymap?
CosmoCtl emulates the same key event.

If sometimes it works.
Cosmo's illuminance sensor goes to 0 illuminance at a dimly lit level.
Key light comes on at a dimly lit level.
The Cosmo's illuminance sensor is located on the back.
It may not match the brightness you feel.

Please describe the content of the XML.

Hi

it works - I Think root permissions were the issue!
Thanks for your advice!
