    Root Guides, Resources, Rooting

    Since this product line is notoriously used by the bandwagon crowd, most S6 users are probably on the S7 by now. However I see some people are still here and yet no resource thread for rooting. Most development oriented threads generally arise in XDA so I'll be referencing that place a lot. Also...

    Root Recovery boot not functioning

    Before I begin, yes I unlocked and flashed twrp properly and everything was functioning as normal. Just had a problem with permissions on my picture folder where I couldn't save screen shots because twrp broke the folder when I took a screen shot in twrp itself. I couldn't delete the picture...

    Headphone jack port possibly faulty on all F60s?

    I saw a thread already about someone's headphone jack not working anymore so it may just be a coincidence. Just had this problem haunting me for a while and I thought it was my old aux cord but after I used a new one the sound cuts out. So I decided to look in the jack port and it seems like one...

    Root Compiling kernel v20a (lollipop) LG ms395

    This is probably more tuned for xda but I was hoping I catch a dev's attention here. Basically LG released some source files (vendors, kernel, etc.) for lollipop v20a and I'm not even sure an OTA has come out for you guys who are still on LG stock. I tried to compile the source files with NDK...

    Root SD card mod SWAP partion

    Hey guys, not really the creator of this concept but I thought it might help us with our limited 865mb of ram. It has gave me a slight improvement (60mb more free) because I mostly use up all the ram until apps start closing down during the time of use so it may not help you if your never at...

    WARNING: Please be advise that editing the bootanimation zips (both booting and shutdowns) may cause the screen to remain black upon a successful boot if the files were not zipped properly and you will need a recovery to undo what you've done because that will not go away. Change log: Update...

    Any good video editor app? (Android 5.x)

    Just found out that the old movie studio app that came with in nexus 4 stock roms isn't compatible with lollipop (crashes when I start a project). This also includes apps based on (or copied) in google play. So I'm asking if anyone knows a good video editor. Free or not, any suggestions of an...

    Root App resizing issues on 5.0

    When I decided to finally upgrade I noticed immediately from restoring my backups via titanium that the dpi is so big that the app doesn't display its full content. For instance when using titanium I have to switch the DPI to 420 to barely tick the XML option when restoring system data. There's...

    Root Chromecast owners (miracast too) that use V4A

    Mod could you please delete this thread. I found a simpler way for viper to work on any build source of android. Would post results but I'm afraid there's no love for viper4android in AF so this isn't relevant to anyone here.

    [MOD] Meenova micro-SD Cable tie mod

    Hello, I own a meenova microSD connector* for whenever I run out of that 26.80GB of space on my N5. I noticed that other microSD connectors basically come in one piece, meaning the cap is connected to the body of the connector. I got meenova because it was kind of cheap and I wanted a handy...

    I woke up this morning to see my phone wasn't fully charged (94%) after charging it overnight. Looking at batt stats, somehow the battery "died" instantly at like 70% then started from 0% charge.
