Has anyone found a Task Manager app which works on the TP2 (i.e. to show/manage running DLL's/processes)? I've tried a couple but they both hang on startup.
hello!
I've installed the AdvancedTaskManager_0.7.cab and works great!

Hello,
Trying to root a 2nd Gen Kindle Fire.. Using -Bin4ry's Root & -QemuRoot
Although it looked like QemuRoot didn't finish it would just stop, I checked the root and it looks like the kindle is rooted. So now I want to install google play. I used tried to use this method. Which has me changing the root settings in ES File. But when I enable Root Explorer it asks me which Room I have HiAPK or Cyanogen. I don't have either. Do I have to install one of these custom Roms before being able to get GPlay installed?
I ask this cuz if I just choose one off the rooms. Then enable Mount File System an error comes up saying it can't see the SD card and wont allow for anything else to happen so ES crashes.
What am I doing wrong?

look up an app called "root browser" and sideload it, works better in my opinion for changing things in the root of the device.

No, Google Play should work on stock. If you don't have a superuser app (SuperSU, Superuser, etc), you are not rooted.
Even if you are rooted, I would unroot and root again because it sounds like Qemu wasn't done after all. I would use Bin4ry because it worked better for me.
I installed it Via KFFA not instagram i meand ADW Launcher
als0 have second problem now, i accidently unplugged it whilst in use and now, whilst it was rooting or installing something it ran really slowly kindle logo had a split and now it won't revert back to normal speed do i need to restore don't wanna lose all my files
bump
If you mean your device is really slow after rooting it, use something like es file explorer and delete a file in /data called local.prop, after that reboot and it should be back at normal speed.

Hello,
I have had my HTC One M8 for a while now but I wasn't really happy with the soundquality while playing through my headphones, so I looked for ways to improve it. I found a few methods and finally decided to give it a try. These methods require a root so yesterday I have rooted my phone for the first time. Unfortunately I am experiencing some problems now.
The rooting process went without too much trouble. I used hasoon2000's toolkit and have TWRP version 2.7.0.2 installed as recovery and used it to install the provided SuperSU, which didn't work at first. On the forums I found a newer version and installed that one, updated it and got it to work.
Now this is where I think I messed up: I read somewhere that when rooted, you are able to delete pre-installed apps from the phone. I downloaded SD maid and deleted Kid Mode, Zoe and 7digital. When I deleted Kid Mode I got an error saying it has crashed. I tapped away the error but from this point I couldn't go back to my homescreen anymore because my launcher kept crashing (com.htc.launcher crashed). I rebooted the phone and the launcher worked again, but the phone still seemed to be buggy.
After this I tried to install the snapdragon audio+ (this was my first choice for an equalizer). I downloaded the apk and moved it to the system folder using ES file manager. I installed but when I tried to use it (through settings in google play music app) my phone would crash. I uninstalled it and tried again, but when I tried to move the apk to the system map like before, my phone would crash everytime. I then found out the file I used doesn't work for lollipop so I figured that's what caused the crashes.
My next move was to try and install viper4android. I downloaded it from the Play Store and opened it. It told me it needed an installation of BusyBox so I downloaded that too. But when I opened the BusyBox app and clicked install my phone would crash again. After some searching I found that the HTC One M8 requires BusyBox to be flashed manually so I downloaded the file but when I tried to load it onto my phone I noticed this wasn't possible anymore.
Now when I connect my phone to my PC the PC recognizes it, but when I open the map in Windows Explorer it only shows three maps; .showme, _nero_sync and Ringtones. I know there should be more as they were there before. It also shows my phone's capacity as a total of 10GB (shouldn't this be 16GB?). Also when I try to connect it with Sync Manager it gives me an error everytime I reconnect the phone; Device unavailable. Please reconnect your device [4].
I have tried to reset the phone through settings, wipe with TWRP and fix permissions with TWRP. I also tried reinstalling Sync Manager and the drivers on my PC. What I'm thinking now is I maybe have done something wrong in the ES file explorer that would make the folders unaccessible.
My phone is running stock android 5.0.1 and my PC Windows 7 64-bit.
I hope someone can help me, Thanks.
P.S: Sorry for the long post, I figured I'd give as much info as possible.
@Steef076 First update recovery to the latest one (2.8.6.0)
Second if you go and delete vital or integrated parts of the stock rom you will get a lot of bugs. Third, viper4android requires to write system and you can't write system with the stock kernel, you need an unsecured kernel or unsecure it yourself.
10GB is right since 6 is eaten by android. At this point I would just revert to a backup or install any custom rom around here. Most are close to stock and with no bloatware and come with root. You can even clean them further using a tool called ROM Cleaner. It will most likely solve all your problems
Did the deleted system apps reappear after reboot, or do they remain "uninstalled"? If the system is write protected like TempestZ states, any deleted system apps should reappear after a reboot.
Revert your nandroid to restore the system apps. And you didn't make a nandroid, you really should before making any system modifications for the very reason that it allows you to revert if you run into problems.
Another good practice, is if you don't know what effect deleting a system app will have (such as "safe to delete" lists that can sometimes be found on XDA) you should first freeze the app with Titanium Backup. If freezing doesn't cause any issues, then go ahead and delete. If you do have issues, just unfreeze the app.

No, Windows will never show 16 GB. It only shows "internal storage" partition, or the user accessible portion of the storage. A good chunk is reserved for the OS.
Does what is shown in Windows differ from what is shown in ES if you browse to internal storage?
Thanks for the replies. @TempestZ @redpoint73
First of all I managed to update twrp to 2.8.6.0 using adb/fastboot.
To answer your question @redpoint73 the system apps I had deleted indeed reappeared after reboot. Also I didn't make a nandroid before I deleted the files, as I did not even know this was possible. Now I have made a nandroid of my stock ROM that is working decently, except for the TV app keeps crashing (I'm not opening it) and the connection to the PC is not working properly (not sure if this is ROM based?). I have noticed when the phone is in recovery I CAN see the folders through windows explorer. HTC sync manager still doesn't find it though. I am working on finding a proper stock ROM or maybe flash a custom one to see if that will fix it.
I understand now that the OS is taking up the storage space. The space windows is showing is the same as ES file manager so I guess this is fine.
HTC Sync is a hot mess. It often causes more troubles than it solves.
One thing you can try (to see if it fixes the USB connectivity) is uninstall HTC Sync and all HTC drivers. Than connect the phone. Don't let it install HTC Sync. Go to Windows Device Manager, find the device. Then pick the option to manually select the drivers, and pick the generic "Android MTP device" (or something to that effect) drivers.
This doesn't work for everyone. But it worked for me to be able to "see" the internal storage of my M8 on my home PC (Win 7). Annoyingly, it seems to vary from one PC to another. My work laptop (also Win 7) works fine with HTC Sync.

So if I understand correctly, 'version-main' is the same as 'firmware' and 'software number' (found in settings)? If so, my current firmware seems to be 4.19.114.2.
Now, what you're saying is I should do an OTA but this isn't possible because I have a custom recovery right?
Also, when I want to flash stock rom and stock recovery or do a nand don't I need the files that fit my cidnum? How would your file work for me?

If yours already on 4.19.114.2 then no need to do OTA as that the latest.
and my backup will bring back your device back to stock as you first bought it when restore with a full wipe.
Try to solve your problem first, only when you really need the backup then only I will upload ... let me know

Hello, sorry for the late reply.
I have decided to give a custom ROM a try. I now have ARHD 41.0 installed and it seems this took care of my problems. All the maps are showing in windows explorer and HTC sync manager is connecting properly with my phone again. Also no more crashing apps. Your backup would still be of much use for me as I am not sure I want to stick with a custom ROM and therefore would like to have a stock ROM backup.
Thanks in advance.
I have a Fire TV Box with expansion card installed.
I was using Terrarium TV version 1.7.6 I uninstalled the app and went to install a newer version. (old version no longer showing up under all apps) However it says that the old version is still installed. I have rebooted the stick multiple times. I have removed the expansion card and tried to load to the internal storage but have the same result.
I have Used ES to look at the files on my box but unable to find anything except when I go to local and app then the Icon for Terrarium shows up there I can press uninstall from there but it does not do anything.
I have connected in with a FTP client to the box and ran a search for anything that starts with TERR but it comes up blank. except for one file called Monterrey
found in /Android/data/org.aerialview.avs/files/.kodi/addons/temp/a555ddd1-97a1-40ed-9158-90a852306047/pytz/zoneinfo/America/Monterrey
I really do not want to have to factory reset my box and start it over if I don't have to.
Hope someone out there can help.
Get rid of ES... I just got a newer router & had to change the lan server id; cannot edit the old lan server to the new lan server id; cannot delete old lan server icon.
Sideload the free 'total commander' for android & then sideload the lan plan plugin. TC is able to have the app on windows be installed like ES but much faster to access the app on the pc platform. Also TC will let you do more than ES but easier/simpler; it also has a dual pane mode capabilities.
Still same issue
Thanks for the Ideas,
I have loaded the TC as you suggested but still have the same issue I can not find were it is storing the blasted file remnants that keep me from installing the new 1.9 version. TC says that it is not there at all so ES was able to see somthing that TC could not.
So i still have my original issue of not being able to install the new version 1.9 because it still thinks version 1.7 is still installed.
Are you trying to use ES to install the 1.9 ver??? Use TC to do the install. I do think the problem is ES & that it kept some junk in ES somewhere.
I installed the 1.9 & the video player & codec using TC. After a day I uninstalled the codec, then the player then the 1.9. No sign of 1.9 Did not check with ES as I've uninstalled ES since it is a piece of junk. As i have stated, ES won't let me delete a lan server or edit it; this leads me to believe that your 1.7 is still only in ES's stuff but not exist as far as the system/Fire TV.
Got it

So I uninstalled ES again. Downloaded the file from FIREDL and ran the installer still would not load.
Ran the file From TC still would not load.
Used App2Fire program and found an empty folder on the SD card called Terrarium. I deleted that and then ran the .APK file again and BAMM good to go. Thanks for all the help and advice.
