You might think that after 10-ish years of using Android, I'd know this... How do I find the developer name of a specific app in Oreo? I don't see it in Settings > Apps > (app name), or in the app's setting under About. The only way I've found in general, is long press in the app icon the tap...

By rootable, I mean that there is currently a working root method, as opposed to possibly finding a root method in the future. I am under the impression that there is no root method for builds S4xxxx or S5xxxx. I'm currently on S5CRF6, so I think that boat has left the station. And I'm okay with...

Are these latest builds rootable? I just got a prompt to update to CRG6 and says I can't down grade once it's installed. It's a N950U1 on Verizon. Thanks.

What version were you on before regressing? I just updated from 5.8.2 (128) to 5.8.3 (129). A few days ago, when I updated to 5.8.2, I it running slow and killing the battery. I also noticed that the network IO was active, literally, 99% of the time. I installed an app called Glasswire. I shows...

Where exactly? I don't see anything to turn off bloatware. If you sign up for Premium, one can turn off ads. Does that include bloatware? I looked at permissions in the app manager and didn't see anything for network access. And without net access, I think the AI can't work, so no assistant...

I had the same problem. For clean up purposes, I'd deleted everything in the EFS directory. Then I used TWRP to wipe the cache and dalvik partitions. When I went to re-register my fingerprints, it did not recognize my fingerprints, or backup password., even though I'd just unlock the phone with...

I'll give it a try! May I have a promo code please? Thanks!

On the Positions screen, icons on the top are pushed to the right. Icons on the bottom are pushed to the left. Icon in the center are centered on the status bar. Within those position groups, the icons are ordered same order on the Positions screen. Say you have the follow icons in this order on...

Yes, I shall! First, Network Speed is a paid feature. fig1. Tap Network Speed, fig2. Switch Use Threshold on. Set Value to zero. Finally, tap Block Constructors. fig3. Tap Used. fig4. Drag the number to the top and drop it. When you start to drag, the top area will say something like...

I searched this thread, but couldn't find it, so I thought I'd put what I found. I don't know...it may obvious, but here it goes. I wanted to show only up/down arrows for network activity, i.e. speed without values. I found I could make the labels arrows. Then I realized if I drag the digits off...

You should be able to find a Note 4 pretty cheap these days. Check Ebay, Craig's list, Groupon, and deal sites. Good luck.

I thought I was going crazy! I thought I'd entered my pass code wrong when setting it, then again for confirmation. I'm glad there is a fix. I'd like to use Android Pay and one has to set a pass code for that. Q: Does Modest_Rom_v8 fix this? And what do I need to flash on post #3 to get the...

Magisk? I tried to install Magisk with this ROM, but it disabled Xposed. There is a systemless Xposed modual for Magisk. When I tried that everything got very unstable. Is it possible to uninstall Xposed if it's baked in? Is there a flash to remove Xposed , sort of like Remove 3MinitBattery? I...

To transfer apps and data to another phone with Helium. This is how I did it to move from a rooted GN4, to a stock GN3. tl;dr 1) Backup up your old phone to the PC using the Helium web interface. 2) Make sure the new phone's USB configuration is set to "Audio Storage." 3) Pair it with the PC...

Thanks! I got all the files from around the web. I misread where it say to get the latest version of the drivers as get the latest version of the files. Thanks again.
