How to tell if idc file was used? I have an IR touch frame device which I have to configure using the idc file, however I am not sure if it is used at all.

I have changed the device type to pointer which should show a cursor on the screen when operated, and it is not happening.

From dmesg:

[   76.937599]  [0:          khubd:   40] usb 1-1: new full-speed USB device number 2 using xhci-hcd

The file I've created is: /system/usr/idc/Vendor_1ff7_Product_0013.idc.
How can I make sure the file will be used?

Is it enough to reconnect the device to "reload" the changes in the file, or would I have to reboot the device?

Thank you
You can verify by this command: adb shell dumpsys input. This will list out all your input devices supported. In the dumpsys output look for Configuration File under Event Hub State->Devices->Go to your device name. Here you find your answer. For me it works.
