If you want, download Semaphore Manager from the Play Store to customize some governors and schedulers that do not appear elsewhere. I have it set to the Interactive governor for added responsiveness.

Add-ons not showing up

I flashed the Add-ons but can't find the apps anywhere after booting up.
I also can't seem to find the equalizer.
.. Is there some particular place I should look? Thanks

Why? Just tell me why?
I made the Reborn Addons with the Aroma Installer for a reason....
Because I know that the user won't use all the apps contained in the zip, so just tell me why should I give to the users a direct flashable zip with more than 6 installable apps that users generally 100% for sure won't use it all??
Also the zip doesn't not contain just apps but contains one type (for now) of Reborn Tweaks + the ability to remove the Ads by blocking them through hosts file at user choice....


Edit. I just saw that's you again... If you can't find any of the apps after reboot your phone doesnt mean that is the aroma Installer fault because you're the only one to report this kind of problem so please review with attention the installation process and try again....

I was only suggesting that you please upload a separate zip for users who want to install everything at a go. I only guessed it was the aroma installer causing it. Could it be a memory issue? Or should I just re-download the package and try again? I think I will do that and tell you how it goes. Still can't find the equalizer tho...
