Rooted Android users, rejoice! Glove mode is available in AOSP

[CZ Eddie]

If you are an Android user running AOSP ROM's (cyanogenmod, etc) and on a phone that supports high-sensitivity mode for use with Motorcycle Gloves, then you've been going nuts because your Leather gloves can't control the screen!!!

Well, now they can. Just add these two scripts and use Tasker or something else to enable/disable them when riding your bike.

These two are based on the linked commit:

To enable:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo "glove_mode,1" > /sys/class/sec/tsp/cmd

To disable:

#!/system/bin/sh

echo "glove_mode,0" > /sys/class/sec/tsp/cmd

Paste these codes into two files (enable.sh, disable.sh), give them execute permission and set 'run as root' option in Tasker.

Thanks go to Adam77Root for creating the scripts, chenxiaolong for creating the commit, and broodplank1337 for giving me the idea to have scripts created.

If only I knew how to do what you just told us to do. I have a rooted Samsung but Verizon practically freaked out on e when it tried to update my software version. So I have sort of done nothing with it. But need to find me a phone geek.
