(Updated 3/sept)*****solved!***** CAMERA SAVE TO SD CARD WITH GOOGLE EDITION ROMS!!!! - Galaxy S 4 i9505 Android Development

Updated XposeInstaller 3/sept
As you all want to save your photos/videos to your external card (like I wanted), I give you my solution for this problem.
The solution is based on these two threads:
- Pictures2SD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2408880
- XposedFramework: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Thanks to davisNT and rovo89
After some research here is my short method to make your Google Edition saving photos/videos to external card:
1. I attached two files, you have to download them to your phone
2. Install de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v18_e88d8b.apk
3. Launch the Xposed Installer, give it root, and click on "Install/Update"
4. Reboot your phone
5. Install Pictures2SD_102.apk
6. Launch Xposed Installer, go to the modules page and select the checkbox for Picture2SD
7. Reboot and it's done
I hope I don't forget anything, and I'm sure you can do it yourself if I missed something.

First thanks!!

Good job

I updated the first post with the latest combatible XposedInstaller. A lot more better version.

[Guide] Mgoblueno1's Noob Guide to flashing CM9

A lot of people have helped me during my time on the forum, so I felt obligated to do something to help someone else.... (and yes I know this is really easy to most of you, but I was lost and figured this could help other android noobs)
Note:I have an AT&T LG Nitro (P930) this is what I did, if you screw up your phone doing this I am not liable. If you have any corrections feel free to let me know
1. Root P930 and enable USB debugging
Thread:

2. Install ROM manager (available in Play store)
3. Install Clockwork Mod (option in ROM manager) and backup current rom
4. Download CM9 nightly from here (on computer)
http://get.cm/?device=p930
5. Download latest g-apps from here (on computer)
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Latest_Version/Google_Apps
6. Cut/Paste CM9 and gapps into root of micro sd card (not in any folders, just the first screen that comes up when you go to the card)
7. Go back to ROM manager and go to install rom from sd card and select CM9 (it should give you the option to backup and clear, I checked all three boxes)
8. It should boot into CM9, but you will not see basic apps, so go back to ROM manager and click "boot into recovery mode"
9. Select install zip from sd card and click g-apps
10. Click reboot
11. Success!

Instructions(FINAL RELEASE)​
1. Install Custom TWRP Recovery
Get it from this thread
http://en.miui.com/thread-43304-1-1.html
1. Download the flashable build, place in root folder of internal sd.
2. Go to system "settings", go to "about phone" at bottom, click "system update"
4. Click menu button and select "select update package" and browse and select TWRP 2.8.02.ZIP
5. Once flashing is done, reboot into recovery by pressing volume up+ power button after turning phone off. If it doesnt work, try flashing by above method again
2. Download and Unzip the backup
1. Download all 4 files from this link(389 mb total. 97 mb each)
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/c7ch9w7shqao6/Redmi_1S_Rooted_Rom_Subinmanaladil
2. Put all files in same folder and extract ONLY the file "Subinmanaladil Rom Redmi 1S FINAL RELEASE.zip.001". If you cant open it, get 7zip
http://www.7-zip.org/
3. You should now get a folder named "Subinmanaladil Rom Redmi 1S FINAL RELEASE".
4. Reboot into recovery and select backup, swipe to start creating a backup. When backup process starts, press down power button until phone restarts. Using a file manager, go into TWRP-BACKUP-"folder with random name". Here you should paste above extracted folder.
5. Reboot to recovery click restore and select "Subinmanaladil cusotm MIUI Rom Redmi 1S" Change location from internal storage to external storage according to weather your backup fodler is in internal or external sd.
3. Setup
1. Click security app in home screen. Select Permissions. Now enable root permissions. Disable permission manager.

4. Turn on init.d in universal init.d app and reboot.
5. Charge from 2% to 100% and leave it on charger for 20 minutes extra. Do this about 3 times before you can get good battery life.
6. (OPTIONAL) I disabled limiting background process in battery option in settings. This setting causes apps to not sync. This happens in stock rom too. Doing this can decrease battery and icnrease heating but it works fine for me.

Been using with this setup for some time now and there are absolutely no heating issues. No other problems either. No apps or music player force close.
Gonna consider patching services.jar soon

I was experiencing heating and battery issues on this device. I decided to root the device and added a few modifications that seem to have magically cured the problem. The phone now heats less than a samsung device. Seriously major difference.
The phone also got a whole lot faster and smoother.
1. Root Your Phone
This method is from the following link:
U can unroot easily and get OTA Updates and obtain warranty by following instructions in that link. Below is the procedure to root.
1. Download the file update.zip to your PC (because download via browser on phone often is not working properly)
2. Connect your Redmi 1S via USB
3. Copy the file update.zip to the folder 'Computer\HM 1S\Internal storage' (root of internal storage, meaning the top most folder)
4. Disconnect your Redmi 1S properly from USB (use 'Safely Remove Hardware and Eject Media' from USB icon in Windows SysTray)
6. Boot into Mi-Recovery (for this launch the Updater app, press the menu/options button and from the menu choose 'Reboot to recovery mode')
7. In the Mi-recovery select and confirm 'English' (or Chinese if you are capable to understand)
8. Select and confirm 'Install update.zip to System', this will take one second
9. Select and confirm 'Reboot'
10. After reboot go to Security -> Permission and activate Root permission
11. Enjoy your rooted Redmi 1S
2. Uninstall unnecessary software
Taken from the following link:
List of apps that can be safely Freezed to free up the RAM
I use link2sd from play store to freeze apps. Just select an app and click on actions and select freeze option. you can also use app quarantine

3. Install Universal init.d app by Androguide.fr from Play store and enable init.d support in the app
4. Install Custom CWM Recovery
1. Download attached file "signed_cwm_update redmi.zip"
2. rename it to update.zip and paste in root folder of internal storage.
3. Go to settings, then to about phone and click system update button
4. Press menu button adn press "reboot to recovery"
5. Select language English and then select flash update.zip option.
6. When done, turn phone off, press volume up+ power until you enter cwm recovery
5. Install the performance mod
1. Download pureperformance for CM from this link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360670
2. Put it in your external sd card's root folder.
3. Boot into cwm recovery, make a backup
4. Flash pureperformance mod and reboot
6. Change ram manager script(optional)
I just find this ram manager to be better
1. Download fly on mod from following link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2226373
2. Extract the zip file, browse to etc/init.d folder in it and copy the ram manager file to root folder of sd card
3. Use root browser from palystore and copy this file from sd card nad paste it in etc/init.d folder of your phone(not the extracted folder of the zip file)
4. Delete ram_optimize script
I think we have to patch services.jar for ram maanger ot work but i am not sure. Will update with instructions if i do so.
Thats it. Just wait 15 minutes for system to settle down. Additionally you can go to developer otpions and put animation speeds back to normal and reboot one more time. I did this much and all my heating issues are gone! Absolutely no heating even while gaming!!! I didnt even underclock! Its like a magical fix guys!!! I was amazed. The performance has increased phenominally too. MIUI should hire jeeko or exit_only for working on their performance front. I think exit_only made the ever amazing crossbreedor script.
I am also getting great great battery life and speed. I am 100% happy with this phone now. I have noticed in this hsort time that battery charging time has drastically decreased too. Phone doesnt heat much during charging either. :laugh:
NOTE: If you are still unhappy with battery life or the slight heat, then install No frills CPU from play store and put min frequency to 300 and max frequency to either 1.4 or 1.19 and test. That reduces heating too. Also check apply on boot. Also go to security app in desktop and click on power(the one that has antivirus and cleaner in it) and select default and change cpu mode to power saving and then click ok. Now select apply for default setting. I didnt need this.

I have posted this guide on MIUI forums too.
Am not an expert, just put together things that I know. I never tried any other custom OS because I bought this phone with MIUI software features in mind.
I tried patching services.jar but it gave me erros such as all apps crashing if i wiped dalvik cache and newly installed apps seemed to not open. So it has been dropped
Nice

Installing CWM means loss of warranty right????? And also we cant unroot and get OTA updates????? Correct me if m wrong......... And what will happen if i skip CWM step???
great tips
Really the tips you had share with us is working fine.
Yes, the phone can be returned back to stock just by following unroot instructions.
I have updated original post with a better guide and more instructions :good:
I flashed the pure performance script following your instructions and also underclocked the
CPU which helped to reduce heating...but battery life remains as it was..I ran a benchmark after turning back the clock speed to maximum and cpu to high performance in the security app,I get scores lower than stock ROM..
Any thoughts??
And also can you provide a guide to turn back the phone to stock.

In my experience, underclocking doesnt seem to really get rid of heating. Am not sure but I get best experience at 1.6 Ghz itself.
The guide has been updated with a major improvement of ram management with the services.jar patched. Make sure you do that step too. :good:
For me, underclocking does reduce heating...
And about the battery status screenshot you have provided... I get such battery life only when I am sleeping. The battery drops like 1 percent/min with just whatsapp and data on
And I get 416 mb ram in stock ROM without modding..just that it get reduced to around 250mb when I am using my fone..
Your screenshot shows that screen uses less power than android system...in my experience, it is not possible unless you use the phone just for fone calls...as redmi has a 720 p display which definitely uses a lot of power
Can u give us some info about how you use your phone...
And y patch services.jar??

Possibly a stupid question, but in step 6, why do you recommend downloading PurePerformance for CM if we are running stock MIUI 41.1 Rom? Just want to be sure what I'm flashing.
Thanks a lot for the instructions. Few questions from my side if you can help that will be great.
Will I be able to update the phone when a new firmware is released?
What will happen with this workaround once you install an update, do you need to start again from start?
does anyone have patched service.jar and framework.jar for MIUI Global 4.1 ?
because i have dificulty tu run ultimatic jar patcher tool on my win 8 x64 environment

[ROM][STOCK][Lolipop][deodexed,resigned,zipaligned] D5503 14.5.A.0.270 Enhanced LP

Hi, just to share with you!
Whats this? In short, it is deodexed -> resigned -> zipaligned, installed busybox, supersu, dual recovery (vol up for twrp, vol down for cwm), 5way reboot menu ...and some other changes which you can read about it here -> https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/commits/master .
How to download rom:
- go to here -> https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/tree/ae7b18de7faa97eaf01eff1c2b6abeb540feaf6f and on the right side you have "Download zip"
- after downloading rom is not ready, do not flash!!!
How to install:
- after you download rom you must repack zip since git always add things into new folder inside zip so you will need repack it first before installing!
- simple open main zip and go to folder "14.5.A.0.242.master", select all files from these folder, drag and drop it to a new empty zip, you are done. Before you flash rom please read "iportant" section! Flash these new zip with any recovery. Done.
Mirrored download link (using this you no need to repack anything, just download and install!):
- https://mega.co.nz/#!Co1yERia!eJVCBjTZrjXok3KXZxM9xp_28I9Pos-LPYKjigJ6Bok
Important:
- you must fully wipe /data partition (mean delete everything from /data folder)! Or another solution, flash only userdata from any LolyPop ftf! Why? Because all old files from internal storage is not relabeled and you will encounter a lot of problems and all these files can not be accessed from android, pictures, private files... etc is not accessible than! Don't think it will work without wipe, it will not! Wioe data factory reset have no sense, I recomend installing userdata from ftf since its more a safe way!
Changelog:
- https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/commits/master
Enjoy!

Curently I am stoped development on this rom since I am unable to solve thing like this -> lolipop have two classpaths (BOOTCKLASSPATH and SYSTEMSERVERCLASSPATH) and I not understand how to access classes from one classpath to another classpath, if you have idea how I can get this than I will probably continue development. My plan was implementing privacy guard rom cm12 but since I have problem accessing classes I am temporary stoped

I have made some automated scripts so you no need to wipe anything since everything needed will be done auto so just click "install" and wait until rom get installed.

Flashed this ROM and it is amazing.
Debloated it, installed some mods like xposed, xposed fix, modded services.jar for superuser mode, modified mixer_paths.xml for more loudness and some apps like MyAndroidTools, TitaniumBackup, Greenify.
Works like a charm and good battery life.
Only thing is the aweful toogle change by Google (no silent, vibrate toggle on quick settings) - but this depends NOT on your ROM.
Thx munjeni (one more time) for your time, work and effort.

I have no idea why it is caled SuperUser Mod since it have nothing related to SuperUser. It is just SignatureDisable mod, author stupidly gave these name to these mod which apsolutly have nothing related to superuser If you look into commits on my git you will notice that you no need his services.jar since my rom allready have disabled signature verification, I not guarant you how his services is patched, but I can sugest you to replace services.jar whith one from my rom since compatibility is guaranted
This http://www.androidauthority.com/cyanogenmod-12-superuser-577985/ is what I call superuser mod (I have plan to port it here), and diferencie between "wrongly named" superusermod and real superusermod like one from cm12 is like this and this

I'm trying to solve this but have no idea how to do it, it is selinux restriction (if somebody have idea how it can be solved let me know please), but temporary solution is: via terminal emulator disable selinux, than install app, than enable selinux. To disable selinux write "setenforce 0", than install app, than enable selinux "setenforce 1"

You can but only if you propertly remove lines from updater-script since it is hardcoded with our rom, instead recovery will abort installation if you missed something in updater-script ! My sugestion is, remove things manualy using an root file explorer, or at least add some lines in updater script which will remove things that you want

No man, you no need sdcard fix. I allready included sdcard fix https://github.com/munjeni/D5503_14.5.A.0.242/commit/21b396daf721791c3675de417c543ba6184e21d1 and you can read / write any storage without problems, but we speak about problem related to the "installing apps from sdcard"! For example, if you try to install blablabla.apk which is on any storage you will get "no free space" error since selinux DENIED installing it, I don't have idea why it happen since I am not familiar with selinux, only very basic things by now. I will try to solve this problem!

Ok thanks for info. On my rom selinux must be disabled temporary before installing any app from sdcard, than enabled. I will try to understand why it happening. For sure it is related to selinux. I replaced platform key in selinux_policy.xml since all apks on our rom is resigned and zipaligned but it was not solved problem related to the installing apks from sdcard.

Internal of External storage permission fix [ROOT] [XPOSED]

Hello Guyz,
Today I'm gonna show you how you can fix permission of your storage. Sometimes We face write issue to our Internal or external storage in different rom or in stock rom. We need root+xposed for lollipop and only root access for kitkat device.
For Lollipop:
1. Root your device
2. Install xposed
3. Open xposed and go to download section
4. Search "Fix Lollipop Memory Leak" without quote
5. Install and active
6. Reboot
For KitKat:
1. Root your device
2. Download KitKat SD fix from play store
3. Install and run
4. Grant SuperSU permission
5. Reboot
DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for reading
WORKS WITH MOST LOLLIPOP AND KITKAK ROM
The "SDFix: KitKat Writable MicroSD" app also works w/ Lollipop...

How to root Samsung A3 (2017) - Guide

I successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy A320FL following more or less this guide (I know, it's a video and that's annoying, but it's also very clear. And there is a text version linked in description), with some modifications though.
I will write here what differs / is not specified in that guide.
I also attach all the files I used; they can also be found on the internet with some search.
Make sure to have installed on your PC Samsung USB driver for mobile phones, available on Samsung website.
I used different versions of the files needed (that guide is for Samsung 8). With the following files, everything worked well:
twrp-3.4.0-0-a3y17lte.img.tar
no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip
RMM_Bypass_v3_corsicanu.zip (learned this from another guide on this forum)
Magisk-v20.4.zip
Once TWRP is installed, the guide instructs you to install no-verity, then reboot to recovery and immediately after that reboot to system; only later, transfer and install magisk. THIS MESSED UP everything, in my case at least.
The solution was even faster: once TWRP is installed
plug USB and transfer all needed files (listed above) at once
install no-verity and reboot to recovery;
install RMM_bypass and reboot to recovery;
install magisk and reboot to recovery
reboot to system
Now you proceed following the rest of the guide.
After rooting, you may want to fix a few problems you may encounter: see next post.
HOW TO FIX FINGERPRINT AFTER ROOT
When your Galaxy A3 is rooted, unfortunately fingerprint will not work properly to log in on your apps (but it will work to unlock your phone). To fix this:
install from Google Play a file manager (like Solid Explorer)
in the left menu select ROOT folder, then rename
/system/priv-app/SamsungPass_1.3/SamsungPass_1.3.apk
to
/system/priv-app/SamsungPass_1.3/SamsungPass_1.3.apj
remove /data/app/com.samsung.android.samsungpass-1
reboot
This will remove SamsungPass. You will not be able to use SamsungPass anymore on your rooted phone, so forget the ability of saving passwords on websites and confirm them with fingerprint (you can still save passwords in browser or use google autofill; you just can't confirm them with fingerprint).
But, with the method above, at least you will be able to use fingerprint to log in those apps which natively support fingerprint login (like banking apps).
HOW TO MAKE BANKING APPS WORK ON A ROOTED PHONE
...Banking apps, though, tend to stop working when they detect a rooted phone. You can try to fix this using Magisk Hide feature.
Open Magisk and tap on the shield icon
Tap MagiskHide
Check your bank apps and any other app that want to prevent from detecting root. (According to the guides I read, hiding too many apps can be a problem: stick to what is really needed).
HOW TO MOVE WHATSAPP MEDIA FOLDER TO SD CARD
This was the main reason why I decided to root my phone: I was running out of storage. So I bought a high-quality and fast sd card (yes, it deserves your 20 €) and did the following:
Download "Apps2SD" (the original by Vicky Bonick; it's free) and follow instructions on how to create partitions.
You can create upto 3 partitions: 1st fat32/exfat/f2fs/ext4/ext3/ext2 (it's your SD card), 2nd ext2/ext3/ext4/f2fs (it is used to link the apps), 3rd swap partition (it's optional).
IMPORTANT: With Apps2SD you can LINK apps (they will end up in 2nd partition) or use FOLDER MOUNT (the chosen folder will end up in 1st partition, the one that looks like your normal SD card).
Please note that for Whatsapp media folder you will use FOLDER MOUNT method: so it will end up in the 1st partition. Create the 1st partition large enough for your whatsapp media.
Use "folder mount (app analyzer)" feature: it's like folder mount, but it's pre-set for some common apps, including Whatsapp. With this feature, you can successfully move Whatsapp media folder to SD, in one clic.
To understand what folder mount means: see FAQ.
In my case everything worked fine. When I reboot I have to re-mount folder, but it takes one second (just open Apps2SD, tap Folder Mount, slide "whatsapp other").
By the way, with App2SD you can do much more: you can move virtually any app to your SD card using the "Link apps to SD card" feature, as explained in Vicky's video.
...Hope this will save you some time!

Thank you! I successfully used your compilation for a T-Mobile branded unit, all works after some tinkering. I didn't have the fingerprint problem, possibly the Samsung security thing is not the same on the carrier-modified ROM.
I had problems first making root work because of the succession of operations - basically, everything needs to be formatted in TWRP so it can mount partitions. Once I boot up the ROM, TWRP won't mount anymore → every zip you want to install, you need to do in one go before you reboot to Android.
I tried to root mine, but it didn't show up in odin, it did show up in device manager but I can't do anything with it, no transfering files via usb, etc.
The drivers are installed, I reinstalled them a couple of times, tried a different USB port, etc...
No sucess so far, I hope someone here can help me
