DESCRIPTION

This module patches all relevant XML files from /system/etc/sysconfig/ for data and battery savings, and auto-repatches these after ROM/GApps updates.

Targeted packages (i.e., Google Play Services (GMS)) are deprived of unrestricted access to data and power intensive resources without the user's explicit consent.

Doze and data saver will act upon these. Core packages such as Qualcomm's, Download Manager, Shell, etc., are excluded by default.

MagicGApps module 2019 is supported.

For verbose, refer to /dev/sysconfig-patcher/post-fs-data.sh.log.

PREREQUISITES

  • Magisk 17-19

SETUP

Install

  1. [Optional] Set up /sdcard/.sp_whitelist.txt.
  • Use zipFile/common/whitelist.txt as reference.
  • Do not remove/blacklist default packages, unless you know exactly what you are doing.
  • Reinstall the module to apply new changes.

  1. Remove or disable redundant modules (e.g., Enable Doze for GMS, Universal GMS Doze).

  2. Flash live (e.g., from Magisk Manager) or from custom recovery (e.g., TWRP).

Uninstall

  • Use Magisk Manager (app) or Magisk Manager for Recovery Mode (utility).

USAGE

Generally, once the module is installed, you don't have to do anything else.

If Google Play Services package is not optimized, go to settings > security and try one or all of the following workarounds (a reboot is implied):

  • Disable all Google Trust Agents. This may break Google Smart Lock features.
  • Disable all Google Device Administrators.
  • Disable Find My Device.

LATEST CHANGES

2019.4.6 (201904060)

  • Complete redesign
  • Custom whitelist (refer to README.md for details)
  • Magisk 17-19 and MagicGApps 2019 support
  • Updated documentation

2018.10.22 (201810220)

  • Major optimizations
  • Magisk 15.0-17.2 support
  • Module ID reverted to sysconfig-patcher
  • Module template 17000, with extras
  • Rebooting twice to apply changes after disabling/re-enabling the module is no longer necessary.
  • Support for MagicGApps versions greater than 2018.9.23
  • Updated building and debugging tools
  • Updated documentation
  • Release notes: if you have /data/adb/magisk_simple/system/etc/sysconfig/, remove it with TWRP file manager (preferably before upgrading). Oreo and Pie users (or even users in general) may need to disable Google device administrators for things to work as expected. This rather inconvenient requirement has nothing to do with Sysconfig Patcher. It's a Google thing.

2018.8.29 (201808290)

  • Improved compatibility
  • Magisk Module Template 1500
  • Updated documentation
