Hey. I came up with a few questions I can't seem to find any solid answers to. I figured I would post them all here since this is the phone I'm dealing with, and they basicly are questions directed at this phone in general.
1) There are some things I've been wanting to do, (like installing/using the app called [Root] X Privacy), but they require me to install the Xposed Framework on this phone. But everywhere I read about it, it seems to be an issue installing it on this phone. Has anyone successfully installed the Xposed Framework on to this phone, the SPH-L720L ?
you can use xposed, but only if your rom is deodexed.
2) From what I understand, when you update the system apps installed on your phone that are already installed, such as gmail, youtube, and all the others that the store shows you as updates, (no matter what apps they are, not just google type apps), those installed apk's dont get written over or deleted, but the updated files are downloaded and installed, and those older apps actually stay on the system partition just taking up room in the end. I've seen a bunch of apps that help with this issue, I think Titanium Backup pro might be one of them, but my question is, would it be better to just uninstall all of those system apps, and then just reinstall them individually right from the play store? -That way, you would have the most recent version installed and you wouldnt be wasting any space anymore by having those old versions just sitting around taking up space. Is this the better thing to do?
three best way to free up space is to "integrate" them into the system. If you remove them from /system and leave them in /data they take up precious space for other apps. When you integrate an app, you basically copy the new app to the system partition overwriting the old one. I use titanium backup for this. The free version doesn't allow this.
3) This is a 2 part question:
1- What is the best type of wallpaper file to use? .png .jpg .bmp ?
2- What is the best way to setup a user-system folder-structure for Lollipop, such as, making a folder called "media" and putting other folders inside it like "audio", "photo" etc., so I can put in my own files, and on bootup the system will scan and add them in. Also, where is the best place to put that folder, on internal or external SD, or does it not matter?
wallpaper = whatever looks the best quality to your eye.
File structure=external because it leaves room on the internal for other stuff
4) My final question is about apps I've seen like, TWRP Manager, Flashify, and other/any apps like that. I got some money to spend and want to buy some new apps. Just wondering if anyone uses them and which one do you like the best if any.
I don't use any of them, but I have access to a pc regularly and don't need them. Ymmv.
Sorry to bombard you with my 4 questions,
but ... thanks.[/Color]
