Android users who demand maximum control over their devices are most likely running franco.Kernel. The franco.Kernel Updater app lets you put all that power to use, and the latest update adds a ton of new features for devices running this kernel. There are display profiles, a “night shift” mode, and a few goodies for anyone running Nougat.
Here’s a quick rundown of the changes in FKUpdater v2.1.
- Night Shift
- Display profiles
- High brightness mode
- Launcher shortcuts (app shortcuts)
- Quick tiles for performance profiles
- Per-App profiles improvements
- Early support for Pixel
- Round icon support
- Improved integration with Play Games for achievements
- Ability to set a default home path for the File Manager
- Improved inter process communication for preferences
- Bug fixes
Many power users were annoyed when Google removed official night mode support from Android for the second time after letting us play with it in the dev previews.
Franco.Kernel Updater v2.1 is rolling out with night mode, app shortcuts, quick settings tiles, and more was written by the awesome team at Android Police.
