Very useful app (be carefull)

so i came across this great app that i think i should share.. its called Absolute System and did not get it from the market so im not sure if its there, google it.
it has really lived up to its name by allowing me to Delete ANY file i want including the Phone.apk and TelephonyProvider.apk and much more.... also my acer drawers (games, media etc) was not working so i clared the catch and now its perfect again
it has a great file browser, total app management, i can download and use boot animations from different devices, change my system fronts (system wide), terminal emulator, ad blocker, build.prop editor etc....
great app using it as im typing and im loving it.. hope u guys find it usefull

Absolute System Root Tools is on the Android Market and AppBrain. Thanks, wicced!

Nice app. Bought it on the market.
Thanks

No problem... got a bunch of stuff on my a100 just not enough time to put them all lol... glad u guys found it usefull and I will keep on sharing as I find them

Thanks will give this a try. You dont happen to know if I can change build.prop so I can play my gameloft games from my phone to the a100? I just don't wanna pay $4.99 all over again. I gave them too much $ already. I've already had to do it when I switch from Evo 4g to Evo 3d.

I think it needs to be rooted. Mine is not rooted & it keeps fc when trying to run the app. Will definitely try this app again when I am rooted

Update:
I have rooted my Acer A100 but I still can't run this app. It keeps FC. Is it because the app doesn't support this device?

[Q] I need some tips and tricks

I plan on creating my own rom and was wanting to know what tools I may need and how to go about it the correct way? It will be Android based.

Google it, exactly what I did. Make sure you have a decent computer that can handle all that memory.

[Q] If my phone is rooted will I get tmobile hotspot service for free???

[Q] I'm just wonder if I root my phone will I get the service for free. I have asked around to a lot of friends and they'll tell me different stories. some i will, some say I won't. Or they say I will but if I get caught they will take me off the service for good... So can somebody share some information with me on this subject or is you know if they even track it??? I'd really appreciate it thank you.

Okay I looked around a little bit, and found some article saying if I was running a stock t Mobile ROM they can track it but if I'm running a stock rooted rOM they probably wouldn't be able to track it. But I'm still not sure.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium

hey if you are not rooted then they can track you. But if you are rooted then you can use titanium backup to freeze tethering manager or tethering provisions ithink it is called in ics. Most custom roms have that disabled so you dont have to worry about it. But it also seems that since they came out with the new unlimited 4g that they figured out a way to do it even if you have that tethering manager frozen not sure how but they figured it out. Given some time someone here will figure out how to get around that too. they kick us in the balls we kick them back. Right now if the method above does not work because it seems to work for some people then they catch on or whatever also if you dont have unlimited 4g then it might work with no problem but if it doesnt the only way I have found around it is to use google chrome on your pc then go to the chrome store and get an app called user agent spoofer I think it is called and it allows you to change your user agent so you can use chrome but it will think you are using IE or firfox or iphone or android. So what you do is set it to android then you trick them into thinking that you are using your phones browser but you are really using it o nyour pc. Now unfortunatly this has some drawbacks like if you try to use netflix it will not let you or pandora it wants you to download the app but of corse you cant because it is a pc. so anything with flash really wont work. But if you are in a jam and need the web then it will work.

I have a windows 7 machine. Will also like some info on building from source.

Most important things would be at least TWO apk managers (I have 4). I would reccomend ptmr3's deviant manager and wanam apk manager. Also get 7-zip and winrar. Sometimes, on aosp ROM's usually, 7-zip has a "term info bug". Use winrar when this happens. You'll also need notepad++ and apktool. Apktool is for Smali editing. Finally, get an apk/zip signing application.
Some people might use this while others, like me, don't. You might want to have the kitchen handy for some simple tasks. I personally hate the kitchen because it just makes simple stuff so complicated.
You'll definitely need the SDK and Samsung adb drivers. And I would recommend using Linux over windows and avoid osx. I hope I didn't lose you here lol.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app

If you are currently running Windows, I would suggest spending some time getting familiar with Ubuntu, and deciding on a dual boot install or running it through a virtual machine.
I dual boot Ubuntu Linux 64bit because it is much faster than compiling within a virtual machine.
There are a couple good how to get started guides around if you search something like how to build CM10, or a similar query.
If you are ready to commit, i would suggest building something easy such as CyanogenMod. To begin you'll find yourself working in a terminal window for the majority of the time, and learning to navigate and debug using terminal commands. All this can seem a bit daunting at first, but you'll get the hang of it in no time.
This guide here is a good place to start. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1971645 but stop after the command ". build/envsetup.sh".
After that command you'll want to build for Hercules (our device)! In which case you would then say "lunch" and pick the corresponding number beside Hercules. After that you can say "mka otapackage", which will begin the build!
Everything should go smooth from there. Once it has finished you will find your ROM in /cm10/out/target/product/hercules.

Sometimes you need to install third party drivers to support your hardware, as Linux is open source it does not include the drivers which are closed source.
You'll find this with many things in Linux. Go ahead and try to play a DVD for an example of some of the hoops you'll have to jump through

WindowsAndroid

The folks over at Socketeq have released WindowsAndroid. It runs natively on your Windows machine, meaning that there is no need for emulation. WindowsAndroid runs on the Windows kernel, instead of the Linux kernel. Currently they are on Android v4.0.3. It's compatible with Vista, Win7, and Win8. Keyboard and Mouse are fully supported. This is the early release, so there might be some bugs.
Normally download is hosted on Socketeq's website, but right now the site is down due to heavy loads. Here is and alternate link if your interested:

Looks promising

It's interesting, runs pretty smooth, but no gapps and doesn't appear to have an emulated sdcard. Ill mess with it more later and see what I can figure out.

Thanks for reupping the file.
Been trying to get this dam file for a week now.

+1 On the Reup, This, I gotta see this for myself. :good:
EDIT: Looks like they've pulled the download completely for now...... guess they didn't anticipate the interest.

I installed this today and started playing with it, I was wondering how the audio mapping was to your audio driver on the computer. I will report when I find out more

Edit the system/build.prop file in the windowsandroid_root folder and add this line:
ro.sf.lcd_density=120
This will change it to tablet interface.

OpenGL is integrated into you Video Card drivers. When was the last time you updated your drivers?
Also, not all cards support OpenGL.

I cant update them from the intel site it scans my pc and that it it says pc scanned succusfully or something but that i cant get them from that place or something isnt there any frweeware that updates it.

I've tried it quickly.
It "works" but I can't do anything great by now.
I copied a personal APK in the app storage (on the C drive). My app appears, I'm able to launch it, but when I try to made modification in it, it finaly crash.
I hope there will be new release, and also the possibitlity to use the Play Store !

how do you get it run ? I ran the exe and a console open , then a windows popups and then the whole thing just crashes leaving me at the command prompt

Quick note, if you download an ICS Gapps and unzip it, the copy the apks from system/app/ to the system/app/ in the folder where you installed WindowsAndroid then restart WindowsAndroid you will have gapps (Market, etc). However the available apps are very limited (build.prop edit might fix that), and I personally get an error any time I try to download an app.
