Root Evervolv Rom - Sweep2Wake?

[DaKeeza]

Hello!
I'd really love to have Sweep2Wake on my Evervolv! Is there any way to enable it without doing scary things that might cause extreme instability? (I'm a noob, if that isn't obv.)

Thanks!

Install the Play Store app, Kernel Tuner. Open it and go to Misc. Scroll down and the settings should be present to set it up. Some kernels don't support sweep 2 wake so it is possible that the Evervolv kernel doesn't but I can't remember off the top of my head. If it doesn't support it you won't be able to make any changes to it in Kernel Tuner or once turning it on it simply just won't be enabled.

Evervolv kernel doesn't support Sweep2Wake, you would need a different kernel for that. I would recommend ButteredToast, which can be found on XDA.

Is it safe to flash another kernel? Will buttered toast use more battery life? Is there a tutorial anywhere ?

Its relatively safe.

I recommend you make a backup juuuust in case. Download the testing version of ButteredToast, and flash in recovery. Then reboot.

As far as battery? Change your kernel settings. Lower clock speeds, change governors, etc. Play around, until you get the best battery life for you.
