Edit Google Photos app for backup when charging - Google Pixel Themes, Apps, and Mods

It is possible to edit the app and make the option available again? Due to my actual version (Android P) I can't downgrade the app to a version that allows me to turn it on.

I saw that but it doesn't work for me because my phone is no rooted, I was asking for the modified app that allows me enable the option again and let me update the app anyways, maybe some users know how to do it.

Google Navigation

Hi,
Is there a way to unlock google navigation outside the US?
thanks
There isn't an official way. Google for some reason doesn't let navigation work in many countries (including Greece that I live in).
With every update there is a modded apk around that enables worldwide navigation. Don't have it atm.The only drawback is that you have to find the apk with every new version in play store so that you have the latest changes.

First you need to root your Hox so you can delete the old maps from system /app. Then download the hack version her http://htcfanboys.com/download/rawdealer/?action=view&file=12523

Regarding the update, i didnt try that yet but i think it will not update. If ur mobile is rooted there is another way that makes u be able to update from play store. I recommend the 2nd way. If u want it let me knw.

AOSP browser without root (yes you read that right) 4.3

I have a method to install the aosp browser without any root privileges at all and no modifications of the system partition. Just involves installing 2 or 3 apks (depending if you want bookmark syncing). This should work on any of the other nexus devices that came without stock browser.
Please don't repost this yet. I want to add in the other languages to browser.apk for the "find on page" button in the menu. I fixed English. The stock nexus roms don't have the string in framework-res for this one button.
Download zip (this is not a cwm package/just extract it or open the files from inside)
http://www.mediafire.com/?f98l0b3apkbb6s1
Steps:
1. Use es file manager to browse to system/app and install browserproviderproxy (it will say app not installed, don't worry it worked) OR install the included file
2. Reboot (it will not work without rebooting first)
3. Install Browser4.3_blackhand1001.apk
4. Install ChromeBookmarksSyncAdapter_blackhand1001.apk (this will give you bookmark syncing)
Extras:
User agent selection in Advanced Preferences
Fullscreen Toggle in Labs
Please post if it works for you!!
Video Tutorial (thanks XDA)

Sorry fixed it. Moved it to mediafire.

Updated the process. It now should work on all devices. Turns out the signature on browserproviderproxy differs between devices.
Does this work on all devices as well as previous version of android say for example Sony Xperia S running 4.1.2 (comes with stock browser version 4.1.2-N7_zg)?
yep working fine on my nexus7.. though there's no option for full screen.

If you already installed everything you can just install the new signbrowser file. No need to install the others and reboot again.
It seems to work great for me. Thanks.
Works no issues, thanks for this, this is the best browser out there by far

dumb question, but since this is going in the system folder, will it affect our ability to receive OTA updates?
I don't understand the directions.
Can you make clearer?

Its not going in the system folder. You navigate to folder and open the existing apk to install it. It does not effect OTA updates. I just included another copy of the file for those who don't know where that folder is.

[ MOD ] Enable App Ops in 4.4.2 / KOT49H

For those that want access again to App Ops in 4.4.2 / KOT49H (Google's build), just flash this zip. It's for deodex or stock odex and it will work with ART.

Using it on Android 4.4.2 with ART engine. Running just fine!!
Thanks a lot!!
A few more information for others:
Google in 4.4.2 removed entry in Settings app that enabled App Ops applications from Play to actually display App Ops function.
This mod revert back commit that Google did in order to prevent us from using it.
You still need App Ops starting app from Google Play (will not promote any here) that is Android 4.4 compatible!
Don't look for 4.4.2 compatible app on Google Play, as such do not exist. If it would exist, then we wouldn't need this mod. right?

The Xposed module I mentioned actually adds an entry in the settings for app ops, no extra app needed

That's true. But Xposed is not ART compatible. Yet.
So, thanks go to OP for providing this.
Yes it works for stock rooted N4 deodexed using dalvik. Thanks.

Can you please explain any differences between it and zrgiu's zip ?
Also why is your zip so big (over 5mb) ? The other is less than 2mb.

The zip in the thread you linked is the apk for his apps ops launcher. The zip here is stock the settings apk that has been modded so you can use an apps ops launcher of your choice.

Thanks. So for stock ROMs that like to update via OTA, better use App Ops X instead of this modified settings apk, right?

Most likely this zip will block OTA. I'm not sure about the app linked, but since it now requires root and would probably have to do some modding to function, it wouldn't surprise me if it also blocks OTA. If uninstalling reverts changes, then you would be ok.

OnePlus Launcher with google feeds enabled

Hey, guys, I just wanted to share my launcher apk mod which I made yesterday by referring to this post. I have used the latest available apk for this https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/onepl...launcher-2-4-1-0-191024180113-6e0804c-release.
Steps :
-> Download the attached zip and flash it with magisk.

Added the magisk module for this. Try flashing that.
You built this with the same package name as the original OPLauncher, so it won't install over the existing one due to signature mismatch.

yup updated the thread with a magisk module.
Is it possible to get this working without need for magisk just by changing the signature so that it is installed as a second launcher?
Sorry, I can't find how to change the shelf screen... I haven't been able to use Google feed. Thanks in advance
Make sure to uninstall any updates for one plus launcher from play store and turn off the auto updates. Then long press one homescreen and go to settings.....left most screen.
delete
This might be a dumb question but is it possible to get the search bar into the dock like pixel launcher? Asking for a friend...
Using a dark theme causes this abnormal look on hold down menus and the settings screen. Other than that it's working awesome thanks again.
