Compatibility

[!CAUTION] This Xposed module was primarily designed for my Go Color 7 (1st gen) running the 4.1-beta or 4.0 firmware with Android 12. I cannot guarantee full compatibility with other Boox models, especially if they do not run the 4.1-beta or 4.0 firmware.

However, in general, it should largely work on other devices, provided they are running Android 12.

Features

This module unlocks several features that are only available on high-end devices with screens larger than my Go Color 7. It also adds other mods to the SystemUI, Android Framework, and Onyx Launcher.

Onyx Launcher

Widgets

Unlock widget support on all devices
Unlock smart assistant (dedicated launcher page for widgets); also allows non-Onyx widgets to be added

Desktop

Unlock the app dock on all devices
Wallpaper support (including in 3rd-party launchers)
Customize dock & desktop grid size
Show hidden apps (Android stock settings, stock file manager, etc.)
Hide app labels

Function bar

Hide function bar items (Shop, Library, etc)
Change function bar item alignment & position

Onyx settings

Show physical keyboard/mouse settings section on all devices
Add additional shortcuts to App settings, app freeze manager, screensaver, and app usage statistics

Status Bar

Notifications

Enable heads-up notifications
Set maximum visible notification icons
Remove notification icon borders
Fix invisible/white-on-white notification icons
...and minor notification panel changes

Clock

Customize clock position (left, center, right)
Insert day of the week, or your custom dynamic text (ex., with the current date) next to the clock (in small or normal font size)

Status icons

Show current e-Ink refresh mode as a status icon
Show current touch/stylus mode as a status icon
Hide wi-fi activity indicators (arrows)

Quick settings

Header

Show user switcher button
Show the settings button, and optionally redirect to Android's stock settings

Panel

Inject Android's media controls into the QS panel (seek bar, play/pause buttons, etc., for music apps)
Hide panel components (WiFi/BT tiles, tile grid, front-light sliders, volume slider, etc.)
Compact panel style (top right only, instead of using the full-screen height)
Customize QS grid size
Remove minimum tile count restriction

Tiles

Show Black & white mode tile on all devices
Show split-screen tile on all devices

Recents

Customize grid size & spacing
Restore stock Android item header styles

System settings

Show stock Android gesture settings (one-handed mode, power button gestures)
Show memory info in app info

e-Ink optimizations

Assign different refresh modes to each activity within an app
- For example, you could set it up to switch to Regal mode when an app has its reader activity open and use fast mode for the book library screens, which might feature lots of scrolling elements & lists.

Other mods

NaviBall (Floating button)

Remove app filter for the 'Open app action'
Add a new B/W mode toggle action

All apps

Restore the last used app activity after a reboot/shutdown
- For example, on the next boot, the NeoReader app would automatically re-open the last book you read before shutting down.

MMKV system config editor

The app also includes an editor for the MMKV file format. It is used in Onyx apps and by the system to store configuration data.

This components works without Xposed. You can modify the system config at /onyxconfig without root access, but you may need to grant the 'all file access' permission on newer firmware versions or device models. To modify private MMKV data stores, used by other Onyx apps, root access is required.

Non-rooted users can also use this tool to edit /onyxconfig, which also supports an easy way to enable handwriting optimizations for more 3rd-party apps.

Downloads

[!IMPORTANT] To use this module, you must root your device using Magisk. See the mobileread.com forum for guides & support. Then enable Zygisk in Magisk Manager and install the LSPosed Magisk module.

See releases for module downloads.

This module is also published in the LSPosed module repository and can be downloaded within LSPosed Manager.

Reporting issues

Before reporting crashes or issues, please retrieve the Xposed log files from LSPosed manager.

On the 'Log' page of LSPosed manager, tap on the save icon in the top toolbar to save all important diagnostic data into a compressed file. When opening an issue, please attach that file.
