How to Restore Apps Automatically

I was wondering how to get my apps I previously downloaded on another ROM to automatically restore with a newly installed ROM? My phone is flashed to cricket so I don't know if that has anything to do with it...Sorry for the dumb question....Thanks in advance

Google sync downloads them all. I use adw launcher that allows you to back up app placement on you home screens. Makes it real easy to resetup everything when I flash to a new rom.

The paid version of titanium backup allows one click automated reinstallations of your app backups.

How To Theme System Apps Right?

Well I gave it a go, got everything working, but when I flashed my new app via CWM, it does not show up on reboot! Am I doing something wrong, or is my phone just un-themeable (yes it is deodexed- DOLJ1)?

Ok so I get my apk (DialerTabActivity in this case) and lightly theme it using apk multitool, change them button icons. I recompile the apk and nothing goes wrong. I try to push to system using CWM, then reboot. It fails, and I have to use old backup...

Super SU has a option to unroot right in the app
BLACKED OUT LTE N4

yes it does but in pac a different superuser app is installed to the settings and there is no way to get that one out :/

I have always just flashed the SuperSu zip in recovery without problems

Why not just use a file explorer with root rights to uninstall system apps by going to
/system/app and deleting it?
Odds are you'll have a file explorer already.. don't see the point in an entire separate app just for that purpose.

You can't do that when it is preinstalled into the framework of the settings of a rom

How did you change your dpi settings and not go into a bootloop?..

Like I just did: 0

Easiest way would be an app like Rom toolbox by jrummy. What did you change yours to?

Wait you set your DPI to 0? No wonder it bootlooped...
I'm going to try 240 or so, that's what I had on my Note 2. All you have to do is modify build.prop, I used a DPI changer on the play store though as I had issues with my root explorer changing it.

I tried texdroider dpi app from playstore, I changed it to 360 and when I rebooted I never came back. Had to do the flash back to stock process.

Same here, the only value that didn't get a bootloop is 380 DPI, anyone has any clues to this behavior ?

lol if you are root just xposed installer and app settings, then change dpi per app the way you like.
That way you can leave stock untouched

Immovable Google search

After reboot, this Google search bar just permanently placed itself and I lost the theme option completely. Any ideas?

What Rom and mods are you using? That looks like what a Samsung UI search looks like.
Did you recently install a Mod?

Stock rom. I just noticed I lost the ability to theme individual icons. Instead of the option to name and change icon, it just picks it up and I have option to delete or show info. Maybe my launcher is gone? I had x posed with g2 settings installed but I uninstalled them. Would an option to select theme just disappear?

A theme option should be here right?

Yes, there should be an option at the top. Something tells me that a theme you tried to install conflicted with the stock rom that might have not been compatible.
If youve added any mods or themes I would freeze or remove them in titanium backup and restart and see if that fixes the issue.

Most of my theme icons came back except the apps icon after few reboots. Does titanium detect and let me remove themes even if my option to theme is gone?

Yes because after you flash the zips in recovery they become apk's

Ok hmm, can you see them in titanium Bu? They should be apk's, if so go on and try uninstalling them. This should fix your problem if its a theme conflicting with your stock image.

I had this issue as well.
I did factory reset and all was better.
It seems that I somehow I installed my home launcher.

only way to do a factory reset is to install a recovery right?
