Hi
Now that I've installed a custom rom which is root , what useful applications can i install that needs root?
I just know proxy droid,GO backup,lucky patcher and market access. I Would be thankful if anyone introduces me useful root need applications.
Regards
Adaway, titanium backup, adb wireless, xposed framework, framework tool, setcpu, a (root) file manager.
Those are the ones I use the most.
Hello, I recently tested and installed various version of ROMs and as gapps make them slower installed apps via apk. I used apk-downloader to pull apks from play store. But for some applications apks dont work, specifically ("HDFC bank").
While installing from file manager it simply says "App not installed."
Any idea how can I force it to be installed. I am guessing it as a security check in app which aborts the installation. It would be great to be able to use utility apps
FYI ... I am using latest built of '[ROM][4.4] CyanogenMod 11' from Albertos96.
Also I am missing something which is not allowing me to set 'whatsapp' as default messaging app. Any pointers?
Thanks to all the developers who made this possible. Sincerely appreciate it guys.
after I sideloaded an App, but I can't find it from manage installed App.
meanwhile my external SD lost.
I have a Sprint variant (yuck). I don't particularly want to root it since I will lose some functions I use. But does anyone have a list of the commands to remove the Sprint bloat?
I also would love to get rid of Samsung native apps and replace with Google, like sms and all that. Is this possible without running into issues? I know deleting certain apps can make the phone act all wonky. Thanks in advance.
You can disable all the bloatware you do not want/like, via ADB commands, or, using ccswe and package disabler pro, which is way easier

I tried the last two with no luck, says apps like Amazon are system apps and can't uninstall. I'll have to set up ADB later and try that.
system apps can only be disabled (unless rooted) . Adb or otherwise.

With the onboard storage this device has, just disabling the unwanted stuff is good enough, furthermore, uninstalling certain things may lead to some troubles, it is safer to disable rather than uninstalling, package disabler pro can handle some system apps that ccswe can not, I use both apps
I Pixelized my Note 10+. First, use ADB to disable many Samsung and bloat apps (some Samsung apps are actually more functional than the Google versions so choose carefully). You can even find a patched version of the Google Phone app to replace the Samsung one, then enable it in default apps. Then you can install HEX Installer and Android 10 Q theme plugin from the Play Store.
The phone is much faster and cleaner looking and I don't mind the UI anymore.
Hello,
is there any workaround/solution how to be able to open https webpages in bultin browser without flashing anything?
Now it does not trust the root certificates/CAs and even when selecting Continue, the pages are not loaded.
Marketplace is also not working at all, so cannot install anything else.
Locked bootloader, no twrp, stock ROM ...
Any option how to fix this without custom rom?
Thanks.
Even with a custom rom like Olivier's 4.4.4 I cannot browse https sites no matter which browser I use. I think it's because OpenSSL version of these android versions are too old and not so secure so modern https refuses them. I don't know if there is a way to install a recent version of OpenSSL though.
To install apps you can use adb but most apps nowadays requires at least Android 4.x.x+ and even 5+. What I do on custom 4.4.4 ROM is; first thing I install F-droid by either adb or copying apk to sd card and using cyanogenmod's built-in file manager to install it. Then I can install most of what I need using f-droid. If I need anything that's on playstore but not on fdroid then I install Aurora Store from f-droid.
