Hi,
I recently started getting into Android and all that comes by it, so in case I'm dead-wrong about something, please excuse me and let me know.
I'd like to ask, since I plan on buying the LG G3, and as far as I'm concerned it, as of now, does not have an unlocked bootloader,
What's the level of customization that could be achieved with root only? And what does an unlocked bootloader allows you to do, besides flashing a custom ROM.
A reference to any guide of such would be awesome.
Thanks!
An unlocked bootloader essentially means we can't flash recovery and thus can't install custom ROM's and kernels as of now. Which in terms of "level of customization" means that we can't flash ROMs based on AOSP builds like CM or PA etc.
So for now we're stuck with the stock LG ROM. But having said that, we have root and then Xposed framework. So we can then pretty much customize everything on the stock ROM. Using G3 Tweaksbox Xposed module you can theme about most of the SystemUI elements. That include statusbar icons, color, navigation bar icons and colors, Phone app, Messaging app, Settings, etc. There are tons of Xposed Modules out there to do pretty much almost anything you'll get on a custom ROM by default.
With the Tasker app you can automate almost every action, with Greenify you can hibernate automatically most apps that you run in the background & if you give it root access it can pretty much greenify useless System apps as well.
In short, while you can't *completely* customize everything and completely get rid of some of the crap that OEMs put in, with Xposed Framework & modules and with some really nifty build.prop tricks you can get pretty close to being satisfied with the customizability of your phone.
If you're new to Android though and have never tried custom ROMs you'll be amazed at the sort of stuff that even just root access can do and once we get the bootloader unlock, you'll get even more blown away with flashing new ROMs and checking them out.
Google a bit for something like "Best Root apps for Android" and you'll find that most well known Android blogs have listed the majorly used apps and what you can do with it. You'll get a pretty good idea

Taken from the Xposed website, I believe this explains it pretty nicely
Xposed is a framework for modules that can change the behavior of the system and apps without touching any APKs. That's great because it means that modules can work for different versions and even ROMs without any changes (as long as the original code was not changed too much). It's also easy to undo. As all changes are done in the memory, you just need to deactivate the module and reboot to get your original system back. There are many other advantages, but here is just one more: Multiple modules can do changes to the same part of the system or app. With modified APKs, you to decide for one. No way to combine them, unless the author builds multiple APKs with different combinations.

To clarify a bit more, you first root your phone, install Xposed Installer, install the Xposed framework from the Xposed installer and then download & install xposed modules. 'Modules' are essentially just like apps that you install and then enable from the Xposed Installer app. These modules hook into the Xposed framework and can do stuff like root apps can - UI modifications, extending capabilities of default apps like Phone, Messaging, etc.

xposed is an app that exposes the core of your operating system (it exposes them to modules made for xposed) to allow modifications that you normally can't do without custom roms.

Thanks so much for the extra information. It does, however, leads me to a follow up question.
There's a tool posted here on the forum, called TweakBox, I think. My question is, are the customizations available there a derivative from the xposed framework?

Yes. The G3 Tweaksbox is an Xposed Module like I mentioned. You can install the app from the play store or get the apk from the thread and install it manually. You'll need to have Xposed Framework installed before that though.

One thing I can't seem to figure out here, those modules, do they come with the framework, or does it supplement tools for developing them?

The modules can be obtained independently from XDA threads or from the playstore. These are essentially Android apps which use the Xposed modules APIs to achieve there purpose.
Think of the Xposed Framework as a layer that allows apps(referred as modules) to do stuff by exposing some methods that they can use. (I'm trying my best to explain here without being too technical)
What you need to do is to install the Xposed Installer app, open the app and install the xposed framework from it. That will deploy the framework on the OS. You can then install the modules either by finding them on XDA or again by opening the Xposed installer app and going into the downloads section (you can access a whole repository of modules from thr Xposed installer itself. That being said, it's not the only place to find these modules.)
Once you download the modules and install them like you would any APK, you'll need to enable the module(again from the Xposed Installer app) and reboot your phone. The module would now be active and can be used like any Android app.
The best way to learn is to experiment. ☺ Xposed is quite safe and will not brick your device unless you do something really stupid.

I actually do have some experience with linux and some with programming.. So basically the framework allows you to use APIs you otherwise wouldn't be able to use?

You meaning the module developer. Yes. Check out the Xposed XDA subforum, there used to be a module developer guide in there somewhere.
Say, is this framework for all android devices?
Or are these modules specific for each device?
The Xposed framework is generic. AFAIK it works on all rooted android phones.
Hi there, I rooted my phone and need someone to tell me about good modules and is there a module or something to modify white balance of screen?
And what is the module name to.get one plus recent apps overview?
Thanks in advance
To modify the screen variables you need another kernel, so you can find a KCAL supported kernel in ROMs and kernels section of this forum and then flash it onto your phone. To change the recent apps overview to OnePlus's just follow this thread: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-launcher-recent-apps-interface-android-pie/
I also suggest using Pix3lify module which makes the phone have rounded corners and pixel sounds etc. I also use EmojiOne module on Magisk too if you don't like stock emojis. Also YouTube Vanced module is a must have whether you have Magisk or not.
Hello,
I've created a Debloat Script to systemlessly Debloat the Xperia XZ Premium via Magisk.
Tested on following Devices/Firmwares:
Xperia XZ Premium (G8141): 47.2.A.8.24, 47.2.A.10.28, 47.2.A.10.45 (Pie)
Xperia XA2
If you try on other devices give feedback. It might work on most actual Sony phones.
Attention!
The module removes Sony Home Launcher and Swiftkey Keyboard, so be sure to have another launcher and keyboard installed before you enable the module. (You can download Swiftkey regular from Playstore again)
I recommend Xperia keyboard from here.
Version Infos:
Debloat_vX.X Regular Version
Debloat_vX.XYT Doesn't remove YouTube (due to conflicts when using Debloat + YT-Vanced Magisk Module -> vanced won't show up)
If you find Bloat-apps not included in this Script just tell me and I'll add them.
Also if you succesfully use the Script on other devices/firmwares give Feedback.
Enjoy your clean XZP
Thanks to @Pointless816 for providing a huge list of Bloatware apps in his adb script (here).
Changelog:
v1.2 Fixed Property in Magisk
v1.1 Fixed apps not included in @Pointless816 Script
v1.0 Initial Release

Can you add the contrast reducer aka qualcomm assertive display feature to the list? Im entirely not sure which apk is responsible for this feature, but I'm pretty sure it's an apk and not a system file. I recently saw a display booster apk uploaded on apkmirror, some old version of it is present in the xzp.
P.S. - It's the feature responsible for turning the contrast down so low and makes everything look very light with low saturation when outdoors .

Well I've been trying to debloat my Sonys for a while now using Magisk and Titanium Backup and also another Magisk debloat mod using Termux and neither method worked. At best they would disable apps but not remove and moreover cause boot loop on restart. This mod works!!! I was sceptical at first and thought it would just remove the apps from the primary user but I added a second account to my phone and the apps were gone there too. Also I used this on my XA2 along with my XZ Premium and works for both. The only apps it didn't remove from the XA2 was Amazon Kindle and FM Radio. But I am ecstatic. Thanks alagga!

"Upon further review..." The mod doesn't actually remove the apps it merely hides them, which is OK, but I was able to still see the "deleted" apps with recovery and going into system. I then deleted them there and the few the mod doesn't touch. When it comes right down to it, it's merely a matter of aesthetics as the apps don't take up a lot of space to begin with. I just like complete control over what's on my phone.
It's still a good mod and a fast and easy way to disable and hide those unwanted apps.

This module is especially designed to do it like this. If you use this systemless removing (hiding) of the apps, system stays unmodified and so you're still able to get official OTA's

Use apk analyzer from playstore (or search for the paths manually via a filebrowser) and pass me over the paths of the apps then I'll add them to the script
(should be located either in /system/app/XXX or /system/priv-app/XXX)
This is xposed module works with Edxposed or you can use Tai chi magisk virtualxposed module to use this mod without installing edxposed.
What this mod gives:
1)AOD(Always on display) with time and date
2)weather notification with icon
3)app notification icons with google notification pops up i. E. onetime extended notification of perticuler app
4)battery %
5) now playing( current music playing on phone it may be work or may not work finding solution)
6)bunch of customizations.
7)battery friendly.
Requirements :
Rooted magisk installed or edxposed installed.
Downloads:
Exposed TaiChi app :
https://virtualxposed.com/tai-chi/
Download OPO Mod :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/att...3&d=1585510325
Process :
1)First flash Tai chi virtual xposed module in magisk application.
2)now download Taichi app install it
3)install OPOmod module.
4) open Taichi xposed app there add system ui app using add application tab.
5) then go to manage module tab enable OPOmod app
6)click three dot menu and click update compatibility engine after update reboot
7)now open OPO mod application there enable pick Up display tab(second one) it will open existing ambient display setting available in setting. After that close app and reopen it.
8) then see if ambient display works or not if its not working try to restart OPOmod ( root method available under settings)
Finally small video if you didn't understand how and what is this

PS. I am not autor of this method.
original theard: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/themes/mod-pixel-aod-display-one-plus-6-t4080553
tested by me on One Plus Nord - Working like charm!
It's working only the clock style is not change I have word now but when I select default it stays at word??
Any idea if i can get it working on non-rooted Nord? :?
There is no way to make it working un-rooted. This modify your system app system UI and there is no way without root permission. Why just not unlock bootloader and flash new boot image ..?? ?

Most of convolvers are outdated, the best you can do is to go on the viper4android telegram channel, contact Thomas de Witt and pay 4 euro for a personal convolver for your headphone. Or you can do it yourself but it requires some solide knowledge. There are too convolvers from stormviper, a modded viper4android but the creator is a little strange and you have to ask them personally and do a "review" for the creator to get the last convolvers (testing purpose I guess). They have a telegram channel too. You can still find pack on Google but it's old. Sorry for my English !

Those irs files are overrated, I personally like the same settings on all of my headphones. I like moderate gain, set to inf, I love level 3 surround sound, dynamic system high end v1 at 20 percent for bass, clarity 12db or 14.8db it depends. That's my perfect settings for Bluetooth, headphones don't require so much gain. You can also search Google fiio fh5 github or IRS file and it used to find the github for those headphones I can't seem to get it anymore. There honestly nothing special they make headphones sound worse really

Global IRC, indeed, but the creator of viper4android can create a custom one based on your specific headphone and just for your headphone. Therefore, the quality is a another world from basic irs. The one you find free today are old and so, they make more bad than any good.

The creator of viper doesn't do anything anymore. The team Dewitt isn't the creator he's just using the open source code for the Normal driver because the viper creator won't allow him access to super quality driver from 2.3.4 my choice. No those custom IRS files are junk I have the fiio fh5 iem and the IRS files they made it makes my headphones sound wimpy. Trust me find the settings you like on viper and a good pair of headphones like my personal favorites are Master and dynamics MW08 Bluetooth.

I installed everything over magisk.
First Ainur Narsil and Audio modification library then reboot. After that viper then open viper and install the driver. The device will reboot. In magisk deactivate both Ainur and AML then open viper again. Driver should reinstall again. After reboot it should work. Could be that you have to enforce in settings. In a link above there is this method mentioned.

It's going to seem like a lot of work but it's not. Your just going to download magisk files. First thing first you have root and I'm hoping your willing to switch your kernel to permissive mode? You can either do that with permissive v2 magisk module or selinux app. You need to have busybox from magisk installed.
Download 2.3.4 apk
1 switch selinux to permissive
2. Install BusyBox from magisk
Than reboot first
3. Install viper4android v4.4 on magisk manager use volume buttons to pick 2.3.4 install as a user app and if show recommended audio fix hit yes.
Reboot the device and see install the apk 2.3.4 and it should have the driver already installed.
If that doesn't work than you add James dsp magisk module new verison on magisk manager
Than flash audio modification file v4.0 after that
If you reboot again and reinstall the app and hopefully the driver will stick if it doesn't flash 4.4 zip again and reboot and install the apk.
You have to always reinstall the apk because the viper zip uninstalls it and it doesn't ever add it back likes supposed to but the driver stays installed and when you install the app shouldn't be no errors. You will need to grant storage permission for viper4android app.
It seems like a lot but it's really not and once it's installed properly it never uninstalls.
James dsp allows viper to play on phones for some reason but you can turn it off and just use viper that's what I do

It worked thx !!!! How do I choose the driver type? Because I saw there was 3 driver, super quality, high quality and power saving. Or it's already in super quality?

It's going to seem like a lot of work but it's not. Your just going to download magisk files. First thing first you have root and I'm hoping your willing to switch your kernel to permissive mode? You can either do that with permissive v2 magisk module or selinux app. You need to have busybox from magisk installed.
Download 2.3.4 apk
1 switch selinux to permissive
2. Install BusyBox from magisk
Than reboot first
3. Install viper4android v4.4 on magisk manager use volume buttons to pick 2.3.4 install as a user app and if show recommended audio fix hit yes.
Reboot the device and see install the apk 2.3.4 and it should have the driver already installed.
If that doesn't work than you add James dsp magisk module new verison on magisk manager
Than flash audio modification file v4.0 after that
If you reboot again and reinstall the app and hopefully the driver will stick if it doesn't flash 4.4 zip again and reboot and install the apk.
You have to always reinstall the apk because the viper zip uninstalls it and it doesn't ever add it back likes supposed to but the driver stays installed and when you install the app shouldn't be no errors. You will need to grant storage permission for viper4android app.
It seems like a lot but it's really not and once it's installed properly it never uninstalls.
James dsp allows viper to play on phones for some reason but you can turn it off and just use viper that's what I do

Nevermind, I thought I had to install Jamesdsp "verison", like a special Jamesdsp lol, everything work great right now!!! I really thank you for your time, really ! But just one last question subsiste, how I'm sure it's the super quality driver that is installed and not high quality or energy saving?

Found this thread on XDA for the latest Viper4Android method that also works on the Poco F3 with Root and SELinux enforcing mode.
Link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/viper4android.4258655/
Anyone know where I can get the latest collection of Convolver Samples?

Always, much better than Dolby, AudioFX and others that I tested.
The "codecs" most important is DDC/Kernel (.vdc and .irs).
When I install them in 2019 liked ClearPlus HD.irs and V4ARISE.vdc.
It's a little hard to set up (Viper and set presets) but when you learn is easy do the same for all headphones.
Maybe it could help.
I recommend you remove that older process installation because you don't need to change SELinux from Enforcing to Permissive (insecure).
In Magisk
1. Install Audio Compatibility Patch (v2.3)
2. Options: Yes, No, Yes, No, Yes, Yes, Reset.
3. Install Audio Modification Library (v4.0), reboot.
4. Instalar Viper4Android FX Legacy v4.4 (v2.5.0.4)
5. Options: Vol +, Vol-, Vol-, Vol +, Reset.
6. Install the JamesDSP module.
7. Disable any native system / ROM equalizer.
Install Viper4Android FX app (v2.6.0.6, Jan/2019) via github or backup
Option: find out him here or Magisk folder (use any root explorer for that).
Path: /data/adb/Modules/Viper (old app)
For newest V4A app use search or Rose.
Choose driver 2.5.0.4, install, restart.
So open the player.
Open Viper4Android FX app, try to apply some profile. Close and open the app if necessary.
Your Headphone need to be plugged.
NOTE: Don't forget to disable other features sound installed on your ROM like stock equalizer (AudioFX, Dolby and other).
To work correctly the Driver Status screen must be:
Driver Version: 2.5.0.4
NEON Enable: Yes
Enable: Yes
Status: Normal
Audio Format: Supported
Processing: Yes
Sampling Rate: 48000
NOTE2: The Viper4Android folder saves the profiles in the root of the internal memory and they need to be replaced in case of Internal Storage was formatted.
I upload the files (older .apk and DDCs/Kernel) on my Mega
18.21 MB file on MEGA
mega.nz
There is some perfis that I did for my headphones (JBL, Xiaomi, Bluedio, Phillips and KZ). You can try them and use it as based to fix all what you need.
Change it to others device you will need just set "Master Gate (limiter)" to 0dB on Alioth.
All them was set for Gemini (this need to be Output Gain -8.0 db).
NOTE3: I prefer the older version and older design. Just the older design app works with the folder "Profile" on .zip without any conversion files.
The new layout migrates the folder "Profile" to "Preset" on new material design. This is not compatible.
NOTE4: Maybe just AML + FX Legacy or 2.7 + JamesDSP is enough. You can remove James app after installed his Module.

As I said, you don't need to alter SELinux permissions.
There is a method that you don't modify that.

Afterwards, remove the latest app and install the v2.6.0.6 app.

You can convert all profile to new format with a magisk module. But here, I'm more interested in the old version 2.3.4.0 with the super driver, discontinued in the new versions

Does't work and duplicate profiles (older profiles, if you don't migrate will works idem).
As I said, I tested both and the most stable is Driver Version: 2.5.0.4 and Viper4Android FX app v2.6.0.6.
Doing it correct, you can allow quality more than 200% compared without it.
