How to get games like Need For Speed Installed - LG Optimus G Pro

NFS hot pursuit and most wanted will not show on the play store. If you click on menu MY APPS you will find it but when you click to install it will say the device is not compatible..... I used the galaxy s3 build prop setting, so the play store will think its a gs3. you can also try any other build prop from another device without a 1080p screen.
So heres what you have to do, MUST BE ROOTED
- ROOT
- DOWNLOAD ROOT EXPLORER
- OPEN IT, GO TO SYSTEM, COPY THE FILE BUILD.PROP
- PASTE IT SOMEWHERE ON YOUR IN/EXTERNAL SD CARD (YOU WANT TO KEEP A COPY)
- DOWNLOAD BUILD PROP EDITOR
- OPEN IT, CLICK ON PAPER LOOKING ICON ON THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER
- CHOOSE SIMPLE LIST
- NOW CLICK ON THE FOLDER ON THE LEFT BOTTOM SIDE
- CLICK/CHOOSE /SYSTEM/BUILD.PROP
NOW FOR THE FOLLOWING WHEN YOU DO A CHANGE AND SAVE IT. THE APP WILL ASK IF YOU
WANT TO REBOOT. CLICK "NEVER SHOW AGAIN" AND SAY NO. YOU WILL REBOOT ONCE EVERY CHANGE
HAS BEEN MADE.
- NOW LOOK FOR THE:
ro.product .brand (change it to samsung)
ro.product.device (change it to d2srp
ro.product manufacturer - (change it to samsung)
ro.product.model- (change it to SPH-L710)
- NOW RESTART BY CLICKING ON THE RIGHT MENU KEY ON THE PHONE AND CHOOSE REBOOT.
OPEN PLAY STORE AND THE APPS WILL BE THERE.
NOTE: AFTER YOU DOWNLOAD NFS HOT PURSUIT.
YOU MUST DO THIS:
-MENU KEY ON PHONE
-ALL SETTINGS
-DISPLAY
-ASPECT RATIO CORRECTION
-CLICK ON HOR PURSUIT
- NOW OPEN THE GAME AND IT WILL FINISH DOWNLOADING THE WHOLE GAME
YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO THIS STEP FOR NFS MOST WANTED.
HOPE IT WORKS OUT FOR YOU GUYS.

[How To] Install and launch AdvancedConfigTool and RegistryEditor on device 2nd gen.

Good evening ladies and gentleman.
I have HTC Titan I (x310e) with developer unlock and I was unable install and launch Julien Schapman apps - Advanced Config Tool and RegistryEditor. I was looking for a solution and today I have that.
We have to (my movie):
1. Download xap files:
- Advanced Config Tool - http://www.touchxperience.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=890 (working good only version 1.5.0.0 to install in settings)
- RegistryEditor - http://www.touchxperience.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=593 (working good only version 1.1.0.0)
2. Rename extension from *.xap to *.zip.
3. Open these with system (Win7) support (not 7zip, WinRAR, etc.).
4. Cut file: WMAppManifest.xml and paste in other folder.
5. Open that file with system text editor (right click and select edit).
6. Remove line with text: "INTEROPSERVICES" and save the changes.
7. Copy this file to zip folder with app.
8. Change it back to a *.xap extension and now we can deploy him.
Enjoy
EDIT
SORRRY APP LAUNCH BUT NOT WORKING. I LOOKING FOR NEXT METHOD.
it is not possible. Interop is what is required to make the app work. So without it you can install it but it wont work hence there is no way to do what you want currently
Relatedly, this fact has been known for... ever since the Mago betas came out, I think? So, probably about half the lifetime of the OS. I guess when things are that old, it's easier to "discover" stuff that doesn't work than read the old threads.
Your phone is interop-locked. You can only install or run apps without ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES, unless those apps come from the Marketplace. As a general rule, if an app requests ID_CAP_INTEROPSERVICES (or other capabilities), that's because it's using it for something...

Followed the method to insall Advanced Config. Now how can I uninstall it? Since I have 3 unsigned app limit, so I cant afford to waste a slot on an app that highly desirable but not useful.

Well it does work. But the score doesn't appear on the leaderboards.
Not? Hmm..Try cleaning the game cache and try again..Cause it works for me..It shows if you put normal number
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
This method works for many games.
The reason it doesn't update on the leaderbords in Google Play is just simply because the game stores your score when you actually achieved it.
In other words; the shared preference value is only used for the dialog when you die.

How to Get the Galaxy S5's New Recent Apps Menu & Toggles on Your Galaxy S3 (KitKat)

How to Get the Galaxy S5's New Recent Apps Menu & Toggles on Your Galaxy S3 (KitKat)
This is not my work, I just found this tweak in this website and wanted to share it with you guys!
I search everywhere and this is the only one that works for me.
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT THIS MAY CAUSE ON YOUR DEVICE. IF YOU FOLLOW EVERYTHING CORRECTLY YOU SHOULD BE FINE. DO THIS ON YOUR OWN RISK
For this to work you should meet the requirements below:
-Your Device Must be ROOTED
-You should be on Stock Android 4.4.2 Kitkat
-You should have Root Explorer, but you can use any other root-capable file explorer for this
How to:
MAKE SURE TO BACKUP YOUR BUILD.PROP FIRST
1. Navigate to your System directory, find the file called build.prop, tap it, and open with RB Text Editor.
2. Find the following two lines, and change them so they say SM-N900S:
ro.product.name
ro.product.device
3. Now hit the "Save" button and reboot your device.
4. Done!
This works better using "klteatt" for just the toggles and recent app menu. Or if you have Quick Connect and S Finder you should use "k2lteatt"
It works the same for other carriers for example kltetmo, kltespr, kltevzw.
You can also use this build.prop editor app to simplify things.https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.apps.build.prop.editor&hl=en

[Q] Disable Carrier IQ?

Now that we have root, does anyone know what we need to disable/block/remove to get rid of carrier IQ?
here's a great guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2774730. copy and pasted in case links break, which happens a lot on XDA
1) You need Root.
2) Download System Tuner from the play store. I can't link urls as a new user but the play store link should contain this "details?id=ccc71.pmw"
3) In System Tuner go to "App Manager".
4) At the bottom filter your Apps by "System".
5) Find "Android System" in the list, and press "Open" at the bottom.
6) Choose "Details"
7) Go to the "Activities" tab and uncheck the following:
Code:
com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.ui.ShowMessage
com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.ui.UserPage
com.carrieriq.iqagent.stdmetrics.html5survey.Html5Activity
com.carrieriq.iqagent.stdmetrics.survey.android.QuestionnaireActivity
com.carrieriq.iqagent.stdmetrics.survey.android.QuestionnaireLaunchActivity
8) Go to the "Receivers" tab and uncheck the following:
Code:
com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.BootCompletedReceiver
com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.receivers.EnableTogglelmpl
9) Go to the "Services" tab and uncheck the following:
Code:
com.carrieriq.iqagent.service.IQService
10) Reboot your phone.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
also, you should uninstall/delete the app LADDM.apk with titanium backup. carrieriq is showing as found, but inactive according to Voodoo CarrierIQ detector with a score of 70 for me. there are 2 files that can be changed from .so to .bak which should get rid of carrieriq, but it's wishy washy on whether or not removing them will cause a soft brick. it does for some devices, doesnt for others. i am leaving them alone for now:
/system/lib/libiq_client.so
/system/lib/libiq_service.so

[WIP] Complete guide to Robin ★ {26 MAY}

(My thread is also available in the Nextbit Development Forum)
This thread will always be a Work In Progress. Please be patient, as we receive new development it will be posted here. Thank you very much!
Do subscribe to this thread to get notified on any new updates.
The "Complete Guide" series is back, now for the holy Nextbit Robin! (check out my profile for other "complete guide" threads for my past devices)
First things first, this guide is made mainly for our great Nextbit Robin - Ether. Some steps may or may not work for other phones...
Please note that the results of the following methods may vary. I will not be held responsible for destroying your device. PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK.
For increased chances of these working, ensure you're on the latest version of Robin.
If you don’t know what rooting, flashing and *explosion* means, this probably isn’t the thread for you.
Credit me if you want to take anything from this thread. DO NOT create duplicates of such threads.
Enjoy!
Complete guide to all things Robin:
NOTE: The chapters are in chronological order, meaning everything after Chapter 2 assumes you already have root and unlock.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CHAPTER 0: TERMINOLOGY (in my own words)
- Terms
- Tidbit
(To be honest, if you need to even look at this, this thread isn't for you.)
- Root: Gaining full administrative control of your device. "Jailbreaking" in terms of Android.
- ROM: The customized operating system that your Android runs on.
- Kernel: The thingy that links software and hardware
- Radio: The thingy that sends and receives messages, calls and data.
- Flash: Installing a zipped file in Recovery Mode
- Recovery: The software that allows tweaking and flashing, and other weird stuff that will destroy your phone.
- Fastboot: The thingy that allows recovery mode to happen.
- Brick: The term says it all.
- Bootloader: Quite literal; loads the phone for bootup.
- Nandroid backup: A backup-ed image of your current system
- ADB: Android Debug Bridge; some command line tool that sends information from and to the phone to, and from the computer
- CWM: ClockWorkMod; a recovery system
- XDA: The holy website that is full of weird stuff that makes your phone wayyyy better.
Now let's paint a picture:
Imagine you are your Android phone.
Before "rooting", you are trapped in jail.
Upon "rooting and unlocking", you are released from jail.
You go to a shopping mall named "XDA".
You find a credit card lying on the floor from the company "Recovery". On the back, it says there is no passcode required, and there is a infinite amount of money inside.
You enter a store and get a sweatshirt with the word "ROM" on it.
You didn't buy the shirt, the shirt just happens to be free, but still requires you to swipe your credit card anyways.
You keep the receipt as a "backup", just in case the shirt spoils.
Just then, you get greedy and get all the badges in the store.
Stupidly, you pin all the badges on your shirt, turning it as heavy as a "brick".
Then, the shirt rips, unable to put (it rhymes with boot) it back together again.
Luckily you still have the receipt to return the shirt, and return back to your good old disgusting shirt.

---------------------------------------------------------
CHAPTER 1: PREREQUISITES
- Nextbit drivers are installed on your computer: http://bit.ly/Robin_USB_Driver
- A proper and working Wi-Fi network
- Enable Developer Options
- Enable USB Debugging
- Ensure Robin is charged to at least 50%
- Original and genuine Nextbit in-box USB cable
- Backup all files!
---------------------------------------------------------
CHAPTER 2: ESSENTIALS
- Backup
- Root
- Unlock
- TWRP
- Flashing
- Restoring backups
BACKUP:
Titanium Backup Method:
Use “Titanium Backup” batch backup
1. Menu -> Batch
2. Run -> Backup user apps + system data
OR:
Manual Non-Root Method:
- Messages: “SMS Backup & Restore”
- Contacts: should be synced with the cloud, if not: Export to SIM card
- Calendar: should be synced with the cloud
- Notes: use “Google Keep”, it will be synced with the cloud
- User Dictionary: “User Dictionary Backup”
- Call Logs: “Call Logs Backup & Restore”
- Launcher (assuming you use Nova Launcher): Settings -> Backup & import settings -> Restore or manage backups
- Apps: “Helium” or any other app
- Nandroid Backup
store all backups in internal storage and transfer to your computer
ROOT + UNLOCK + TWRP RECOVERY:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nextbit-robin/development/tool-robin-toolkit-v1-0-root-twrp-t3375908
(kudos to @daavm)
1. Download the tool
2. Just follow the instructions
**NOTE: Relocking again will result in data wipe**
FLASHING:
Clean Flash:
1. Backup your data!
2. Reboot into TWRP Recovery
3. Go into settings and enable “Use Aroma File Manager”
4. Wipe Dalvik, Cache, System & Data
5. Flash your chosen ROM, basebands, firmware updates and other crap
6. Flash any GApps package. (the one I use: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/gapps-lp-gapps-pa-gapps-aroma-installer-t3010798; kudos to @raulx222 & @slim Team)
7. Flash anything else (e.g. frameworks, boot animations, splash screens, themes etc.)
8. Reboot
9. DONE!
OR:
Dirty Flash: (flashing without wiping anything, used for updating to newer ROMs or reflashing)
1. Reboot into TWRP Recovery
2. ONLY wipe Dalvik Cache
3. Flash your chosen ROM, basebands, firmware updates and other crap
4. Flash any NEWER GApps package. If you manually installed/updated through Play Store, skip this step.
5. Flash anything else (e.g. frameworks, boot animations, splash screens, themes etc.)
6. Reboot
7. DONE!
It is perfectly fine if the first bootup takes a while, that is perfectly normal. Upon boot, Android will optimize itself so just let it do it’s work. Do put the phone under a fan as it does tend to get hot when optimizing since it is at max brightness or some dumb reason.
If it takes ages (like over 10mins) to boot up, it means you might have bricked your phone! Do source the XDA indices for any unbricking tutorial, or keep a lookout for an update on this page for instructions. (I don’t have any/don’t need to find any as I have never bricked any Android, so ya.)

Click to collapse
DO NOT dirty flash if your newer ROM:
- Doesn't allow/support it
- Has a major update
- Has a Android version or firmware jump (e.g. from Lollipop to M)
- Is a totally different ROM from the previous one (e.g. from Stock to Cyanogenmod)
If after dirty flashing you experience any ROM issues (e.g. battery drain, lag etc.), I would advice you to do a clean flash instead.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
RESTORING BACKUP:
Titanium Backup Method:
1. Use “Titanium Backup” batch restore
2. Menu -> Batch
3. Run -> Restore missing apps with data (*NOTE*: DO NOT RESTORE SYSTEM DATA)

5. Restore manually: Calendar Storage, Internet Bookmarks, Messaging SMS/MMS Prefs, Phone SMS/MMS/APN, User Dictionary, Wi-Fi Access Points**
6. Launcher Settings: (assuming you use Nova Launcher) Settings -> Backup & import settings -> Restore or manage backups
**What can I manually restore?**
Red: DO NOT RESTORE, YOU’LL END UP BRICKING/BOOTLOOPING YOUR PHONE!!!
White: 99% safe, go ahead
Green: 70% safe, beware of potential brick
Grey Stirkethrough: DO NOT RESTORE

Honestly, I don't encourage battery managers such as "Battery Doctor" or "Clean Master (Speed Booster)" as realistically, it takes up more battery or RAM in trying to keep the app open to "properly manage the battery". Yes there are benefits such a having a zippier G3, but there are better methods out there.

CHAPTER 8: ADDITIONAL INFO
- Device Architecture
Architecture: arm64 + arm
Screen DPI: 480
Drawable Class: xxhdpi (extra extra high density)
Google Play services - Build Suffix: (-448)
How does this affect me?
Well, when you install apps, downloading the correct arch version means the app is better optimised for our phone (and you'll potentially save some internal storage space too!)
As for Google Play services, you MUST install the correct build version. (Example: v9.0.90 (448-xxxxxxxx) )

@Lousyguyy : Thanks for this - it was about time there was a dev index for the Robin.
Just a couple of points to note in your OP:

Except it doesn't! Nextbit have explicitly stated that rooting your phone or loading a custom ROM etc will NOT void the warranty.
For increased chances of these working, update your KDZ to Lollipop first using OTA or Flash Tool.
