Tiny launcher app that opens the Android settings
PS: This project is currently a bit scuffed and the launcher will take a second to launch
I don't have access to my PC currently due to some hardware failure and my parts are still coming in, and all i have is a Raspberry Pi.
I plan on remaking this with Android Studio, so this app will launch pretty much instantly later on.
The Quest 2 is just a chunky Android-based VR headset, so you can still access the Android settings on it.
The Android settings app lets you change app permissions, mess around with things like hotspot NFC and different network-related things, view OS information, etc.
I made this utility after watching Mysticle's video. As having to search trough an app just to open the Android settings every time seems like a pain xD
This app is INCREDIBLY tiny and everything is readable, so if you're scared it might be a virus or something malicious feel free to compile it yourself using the steps at [# Compilation guide].
You can again watch Mysticle's video on this topic.
The steps are roughly:
- Get a file manager such as Amaze
- Sideload it to your Quest using SideQuest (PC) or Bugjaeger Mobile ADB (Android)
- Open the Quest web browser and go to the Releases tab on this page and install the latest
.apk - Go to
Unknown Sourcesto open the app
- Install Godot 3.5 (or any 3.x version)
- Download this project as a ZIP file (
Code > Download ZIP) - Extract the project into a folder
- Open the project in the Godot engine
- In the top menu:
Project > Export.. - Follow the steps installing the Android build template, and hit
Export
The export step might vary a bit, but it's pretty easy (there is a tutorial for all of this, just search up "Export Godot project to Android" on YouTube)
