Develop Bugs

WOW!!! Startup Cleaner. Now this is a very handy wee app! Link...

Now this is a handy wee app!
Check this out. Before installing this app get your hands on taskxp from the market (don't set it as your default launcher make your default what is already was). Reboot your device then click taskxp to check what apps have started (a lot!), also see the amount off free ram you have. But the app below actually works
Download the app from the link below. Disable user apps, and whatever system apps are starting (compare/check with taskxp). Reboot then check what apps have started, nice eh?
It took me just a couple of reboots to get it set up nice.
Note, stay away from installed apps all that does is uninstall.
Try it out post here what you think.

Nice app, but not really the same thing.
Startup Cleaner is simple and it does what it says on the tin. Personally I am not into task killers and that type of thing at all.
I just mentioned Taskxp so people can see what is happening on startup...

Autostarts is the business!! Have been using it since i got my SGS and still using on my SGS II - after wipe/new rom, it's the SECOND app i install after TB!!

I prefer Gemini App Manager, because there is not one, but different kind of autostarts with different triggers and each can be modified by the Gemini app (together with its task killer widget and it's ability to freeze apps (although I have Titanium Backup) it's nearly perfect)

[APP]Root Browser: A Free Root Explorer

Hi,
I don't know if you guys already know this or not, but I found this app while I was reading some topics in Android Apps & Games section which works just like Root Explorer but it comes for FREE. The Devs name is jrummy16.
I've attached the apk.

• Donation link: (Support the Dev if you like it, Please)
https://market.android.com/details?...xLDEwOSwiY29tLmpydW1teS5yb290LmJyb3dzZXIiXQ..
The trick to make the free version to a Pro version is the simplest I've seen and that is,
All you need to do is create this file:
/system/etc/.root_browser
(don't forget the ".")
Re-open the app and voila! you have the premium features.

Pros: (My opinion only)
- FREE
- Unbelievably smooth interface. Way better than Root Explorer.
Cons:
- An Exit button would be nice. Double back works as exit though.
- No Extraction option! However in Root Explorer that option doesn't work properly.

Thanks for sharing.

I been using this program for awhile now and its simply awesome! And best part, FREE! I bought the upgrade version to support the author too.

Yep, it's great and worth buying at that cheap price.
Added Screenshots and a little Pros & Cons list which I've found so far, on the Lite version of course.

Great app and I mean absolutely no disrespect, but I find the font hard to read. Is there any way to use the default system font?

Thanks,
Will give it a try later,
Hopefully using this will stop my pesky Singtel apps
reappearing after rebooting each time!

You need Titanium Backup for that man or you could try Gemini App Manager.

And unfortunately the same thing has happened with this app as well!
Driving me mad this is, can see im going to have to do complete

Currently using -doomlords-easy-rooting-toolkit on Xperia Arc

effectively a great app !
more infos from the developper himself here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1338582

I am an idiot
I posted all but the trick to make the Free version to a Pro version. Now added it anyway. OP Edited.
This thing was great, now it's awesome
[Still those who like this app I'll urge them to get the Donation/Pro version from Market to support dev for continuing his good work]

thank you.
nice app.

Cheers mate, great app. Just got the paid one from the market... Play store. =D

thanks for the info.
but I think its not working. tried to make the file '.root_browser' in /system/etc. but its says 'failed'.

way round failed to create folder
Hi what i did to get round this was downloaded solid explorer (file viewer app in mp) then used that to create folder.
Just as reference though solid explorer is great for copying files to external sd just having probs physically moving files with it but its safer just copying anyhow incase of power loss.
Hope this helps.

[REQ] WWE Network Fire TV apk

Hey guys, I am looking for the wwe network apk directly from the fire tv, I have a tronsmart s89-h android box, and cannot get the standard wwe network app to work, I am hoping that this will solve all my issues but i cannot find a way to get the apk anywhere. I would appreciate your help! thanks!

Sorry, I'm just heading off to work, but when I get home, I can pull the apk for you.
Let me guess. The issue you're having is with GPS, right? That was the problem I had before the FireTV version came out

That would be amazing! and Yes i Believe the issue has come down to the device not having any kind of gps, Im assuming the fire tv does not have that check, plus it is much more suited for a tv, (landscape mode!)

Alright, as promised, here's the apk. Current version is 1.0.1
It's basically the same UI as the PS3 app, but I'll admit, it's a little buggy at times.
In any case, enjoy! http://www39.zippyshare.com/v/84400404/file.html
Edit: Well I tried this on a couple of my other devices, and it turns out this has a security check for the Amazon App Store, and you also need to have the app registered to your Amazon account. This may or may not work out for you afterall. I tried, man...

So i was able to purchase/own the wwe network app from the online amazon store despite me not technically having a device it would run on, this box can also install the amazon app store no problem, though it obviously only sees the android wwe network app and not this one.. GOOD NEWS is that the app is working on my account! its def a bit wonky but i am hoping it is some stuff i can fix with some DPI xposed changes or something of the like, thanks so much very appreciated, and def works!!

Well, After some playing around, it isnt exactly usable. First off on the menu there is a about an inch or 2 white space on the bottom and right side of screen, i believe this can be fixed with some kind of dpi mod, but not totally sure. secondly, only the home screen loads images, ie, whats playing now, whats coming up, if u go to pay per views, it is just empty boxes with borders, none of the images load until you get to the actual video description, but you really have no idea what you are clicking. Lastly when playing a video (which does indeed work) with my tronsmart tsm-01 air mote i could not do anything but go back, i could not pause i could not get the menu up. i could not fast forward etc. only could go back. So while it is useable to watch summerslam, with no dvr feature thats really about it. maybe the dpi issue will fix everything who knows, I only played around with it for about 15 minutes as i headed to work, but its hardly worth it right now.
As far as getting the amazon app store. probably used more effort typing in this forum than to just simply google 'android app store' : http://bit.ly/uC6tic

Enabling themes in Verizon Lg G4

I am new to this forum so pardon me if anything is out of place.
I was messing up with my G4; looking for missing features and found this link (I can not post the url as I am new but I shorten it and it is)
http:
//
goo.gl/ucGEhu
I followed it and was able to enable themes in my Verizon G4. You may want to sideload Android lg smart world apk, to download themes from.
This is what the link states (I changed last two steps)
1. From Play Store install "Launcher PRO" FREE version. BUT DO NOT MAKE IT Default Launcher.
2. From LG Launcher (Stock) add activities*widget (remember from LG Stock Launcher)
3. It will open a black window.. with different activities
4. Scroll down to find HOME
Modified steps
Click on entry which says com.lge.launcher2.theme.LGThemeChooserActivity (I could not locate the entry mentioned in 5th step in original post )
This will create an icon at home with title "theme", click on it and now you can change theme on your verizon G4. If you click on plus it takes you to LG Smart world.
Or you can download using smart world and they show when you open theme.
It still does not show theme option in launcher like it does for wallpaper but does the job just fine..
Thanks

great guide! i was able to get the themes shortcut added, and it even hung around after uninstalling the launcher software.
Question - where do i get the smart world app?

I just google it and found it at some thread at xda, it was an old version as it asked to update itself as soon as it launched. try http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2500961
I can upload the one I have if needed.

I'm not sure if I using the right app but when I'm trying to add the activities widget I get this

Now that we have root, has anyone figured out how to get the actual theme app in our drawer, rather than creating a desktop shortcut?

Not really sure why it will crash. What version you are on.

I can verify that the "Any Shortcut" directions in this post worked on my G4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4/themes-apps/verizon-theme-changer-t3129702

Any shortcut also worked for me although I've moved over to Nova Launcher.

Both methods work the only thing I don't get is why the app drawer button doesn't get themed? On Eugene's LG pure ROM it does but somehow he was able to add the theme option into settings.

[APP] All in One Gestures

Really a great gestures app to mimic iOS gestures. I use the navigation gestures option because I could not deal with the navigation bar not matching my keyboard. The gestures work pretty well and I got used to them, but I did not like the Back option. Too many times trying to go back ended up with me opening recents or going home.
I really wanted a gesture to swipe the screen from left to right to go back and this app allows me to. Works great with a few customization options. It was removed from the playstore but the apk can still be sideloaded
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/ys-liang/all-in-one-gestures-2/all-in-one-gestures-2-5-9-release/

Thanks for sharing. IMHO The OnePlus gestures are the best I've tried on any phone. The more options there are, the better off we are.

Thanks for sharing, I love the Swype from the left to go back feature

Hey Guys, if you wan't, you can also try an app called 'Fooview', which is available in playstore (No need Root access) and its amazing, you can set the swipe option from right to left for back in this app as well. it also comes with a browser, file manager, and allow to take screen short of any specified portion on your screen. It will also help to convert the 'letters' in an image to edit/copy. The main advantage is it work with very less battery drain and comes with small in size. this is one of the best app I have ever used. and I'm using this for the last 2 Years. Just try it, it is amazing.

Never mind, Ignore it. It will work perfectly.

I found both of these apps to be scetchy and not any good.
I rather sugest the app called Fluid Navigation Gesture on play store.
It gives you the Miui10 Navigations that work great without any overlay or stuff like that.

Yea, but this will work perfectly without giving the location permission. And this app is available in play-store, which is verified by the google, then will it be a malicious app ?

You'd be surprised but there are apps that are not checked more in-depth before being accepted on Play Store

There are many apps which get through the checks. Check the news, you'll find many articles about google removing app from the play store every now and then.
Even a seemingly trustworthy app can do a lot of harm. Even if the app is a bit sketchy its better to stay away from it.

I agree. I've tried damn near all the gesture apps but I keep going back to fooview. It's like 20 apps in one with an abundance of gesture options.

I find the navbar gestures severely lacking. Swipe from left or right edge up for back? On which planet? Ever tried this swipe on Chrome with a longish text loaded? All you get is a scroll back and not back. Or maybe I am misunderstanding the directions. How difficult is it to add a graphic to illustrate?
