Comments on Hardware Disabler for Android

★★★★★ Yo man that's the best! UPDATE (VERY IMPORTANT): Dude, after unbinding device system_server begins draining battery because of high CPU usage. It's trying to poll on deleted file descriptors (try to disable any device and check strace -p , you'll see). The only way to fix this is to get on gdb and forcely close those fds (but I wasn't able to do this), so I just killed system_server process, and IT DID THE TRICK. I had disabled proximity sensor and no CPU load from system_server! Please think how to manage this stuff, this is *very* important. I flashed fresh CyanogenMod on my SGS3 KitKat 4.4.2 and seems like Proximity Sensor wasn't working properly so every time I was trying to call someone my screen instantly went black, but now I disabled /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/cm36651/9-0018 and everything is great! Thank you very much for making this!
★★★★★ Works on Galaxy Nexus with CM10 This app works for me. I had a problem with my phone rebooting during calls because of the proximity sensor. I disabled it using this app.
★★☆☆☆ Makes my phone run terribly slow Makes my phone run terribly slow... I am running on CM9 and using LG P500.Installing this app and turning off proximity sensor makes my phone literally crawl... There is no other app I found which can do what this one can. Please improve it...
★★☆☆☆ Can i put zero ....It does not open.it does not work... what is this ... a crap .. i uninstalled it
★★☆☆☆ Battery drainage Worst app...it does what it says but sucks up all my battery and my phone gets heated up upto 60'C
