PKF Manager
Free AppAbout PKF Manager
This app is for Samsung Galaxy S Plus (I9001) only, you need to have installed a CyanogenMod 9/10/10.1 based rom and a custom kernel which includes the Phantom Key Presses Filter kernel module (phantom_kp_filter).
The app allows to better manage the filtering parameters customization of Phantom Key Presses Filter kernel module.
Phantom key presses issue description:
The phantom key presses issue is a well known hardware bug of some Samsung devices, also some I9001 are affected by this issue.
Practically, the high activity of the radio hardware, in particular the antenna (especially when in 2G mode), could cause interference on Melfas chip, which is located very close to the antenna. This interference could induce bad interrupts that are seen by the chip as possible HOME, MENU or BACK key presses.
These unwanted presses could cause unexpected app closings, Google Search popups, back to launcher home, or, the wake up (display light on) when the phone was in suspend mode (simply lying on the desk). Obviously, this problem could also cause a higher battery drain.
App features:
- Enable/Disable the phantom HOME key and MENU/BACK touchkeys presses filtering
- Filtering parameters customization
- View the ignored key presses (possible phantom key presses)
- Settings persistence after app close / reboot / shutdown
- Previously set filtering parameters will be restored during the first app start

People using SGS+ should definitely use this app to solve deep sleep issue due to phantom home key presses when idle and thus increasing battery life.

Since I installed jellybean on my SGS+ my phone is experiencing some unexpected behaviour of home key like fast closing or never opened of recent apps and unwanted opening of Google search... This application solved most of mentioned behaviours. To use it you need a rooted phone and a kernel with the module already implemented. Recommended for experienced users, just follow the URL provided.
