I found, today the Boot Manager app that allows you to have up to 5 Roms on your phone at once but I dont know how to set it up on my phone and what is required. Would love if someone would tell me how to set all the variables correctly, so I can use it

Android device manager is a very cool and useful tool that has been created for android phones.
However, my problem is:
When I try using the "lock" option on android device manager, my phone does not lock unless i have it in the correct profile.
I am using CyanogenMod 10.1.3, and I also use profiles.
I have two main profiles: 1)Lock and 2)unlock. Obviously, the lock one is the default locking, and the unlock profile, is insecure.
My question is: will google find a way to override the profile system and lock your phone no matter what profile it is in, whether or not you have your phone in an insecure or secure profile?
Let me know your thoughts!

After months of trying I managed to change launcher on RKa701 device.
As owners of this device already know, another launcher can be installed on this device but you cannot set it as default because it will stuck, or wont launch or will not be displayed correctly. It simply conflicts with factory launcher and make unit unusable.
Factory launcher is very ugly but the problem with it is not just that , but unit needs it because radio, music, bluetooth and other apps wont work without it. As you can swap factory music app with another one you cant do that with radio and bluetooth.
Im not responsible if you mess something with your device. Proceed at your own will.
So here we go:
1. Root your device with latest kingroot ( i used latest 5.2 version) . Dont worry we will uninstall it later
2.When rooted it will ask for all kind of permission allow
3. With root explorer or some other app go to system/priv app and make a backup of launcher2.apk-copy it somwhere.
4. Download apk file of some launcher (can be any-we wil install our main launcher later) and put it in system/priv app. I used nova and renamed it to "launcher2" just in case. Install nova.
5. reboot or (if you want to uninstall root for good-choose factory reset) . After boot up nova launcher should be loaded instead main launcher. But WE ARE NOT FINISHED.
If you try to start radio, bluetooth or music app you will find that it cant be done because you removed factory launcher. The good thing is it should be booted, but it is not necessary for it to work in the background all the time.
6. So, install launcher2 that you backed up in step 3. It is now installed but it is not system app anymore.
7.Now. If you dont want to stick with nova launcher install the one you will use. I find car launcher pro best one out there.
8. Now, from google play download "autostart and Stay" app from google play. Install it.
9. Set service toggle of "autostart and Stay" to on.
11. In the app settings check "smart service on boot" and "pooling interval" on 5 seconds.
10. By usign "+" sign add launcher2.apk and launcher you choosed to use. On launcher2 make sure that "autostop" on boot completed is choosed and for the launcher you choosed "autostart" and "stay".
11. If you didnt do it already, using system app remover uninstall kingroot.
11. Reboot.
Thats it.
What we did?
With "autostart and Stay" we loaded but then stopped factory launcher and by checking "stay" we ensured that launcher we choose to use cant be stopped in the background by any other process-If you want you can choose "persist" instead of "stay" and set pooling interval on 60sec. It means that after using any other app more than 60 sec , you will be kicked out on home screen, but other apps you started wont be killed. It means that you can start radio or music, choose your track or tune and it will be working in the background even after you have been kicked to home screen. If you want to watch video, just extend pooling interval. 60 sec is enough for everyday use.
Thats it. Bye
I have root via Magisk and want to know how to change device id for a specific app as Oreo does that now instead of in the past making device id across the phone one id that was easily changeable via apps. Any ideas?
Would anyone know if the Galaxy S9 natively supports user profiles so that multiple users can login and use the same phone with their unique settings and apps? If not would anyone be able to recommend an application that could accomplish this?
The functionality has been disabled for stock Samsung ROMs long time ago (if it was ever enabled). There were some discusions in the past regarding this and what I remember is that you need root for this to work. You have to edit build.prop and include the lines:
fw.show_multiuserui=1
fw.max_users=n (where "n" is a number indicating the max users on device - should be at least 2)
Alternative is to flash an AOSP based ROM that has the function enabled.

I unfortunately cannot root the device as it will be provisioned for company use :/ is there a launcher that could help to accomplish this?
Sorry, none I know. The functionality is deep embeded in the OS, a launcher would not be enough to accomplish that
You could however use dual accounts for certain apps or mail and also use Secure Folder to lock out personal/private data. This way you will have some sort of multi user since the secure folder keeps data in separate encrypted form

Hi
I'm trying to run this command on boot:
Code:
settings put secure sysui_keyguard_left "com.devuni.flashlight/com.devuni.flashlight.MainActivity"
However, I cant find a way to make it run at boot. App Init.D can execute it on demand (sometimes works), but never at boot. Kernel Auditor is not working as well (nothing happens).
Please, what else can I try to make it work on Oreo 8.1 stock ROM, rooted with Magisk?
Thanks in advance!
-Or at least, is there an app to create 1x1 widget to execute this script?
-Is there any way to change icon of the shortcut? This one shows only white circle as an icon. However, same app had normal icon, while set as shortcut on alternative lockscreen app... Or is this not possible?
Please, I have this issue since month, and I cant push it trough. It is last issue with my new phone, but I am afraid I will fight it for maybe months more! Unless I will get some help maybe...
