Hi, ive tried searching but couldnt find anything. Is there a app like Greenify I could download without rooting my phone? Sorry if this is a noob question.

This app requires root to function.

Root your phone and run greenify. It is worth it if you want good battery life. That is one of the best apps out today.

I dont really want to root. I think the phone itself is pretty snappy and unlike 99% of the people on this forum I do actually like TW and a lot of the gimmicky features. I find some to actually be useful. I'll probably root after I get bored. The only thing I missed from having a rooted phone was tethering for free but foxfii is the perfect answer for that. Thats why I was asking for specifically unrooted phones. But thanks for your responses.

I've had this phone for about two weeks and I'm still on stock but rooted, no custom recovery, yet. I like TW as well, that's why I got this phone. I rooted to get rid of some bloat and for greenify. In the long run you would be happier.

rooting by itself won't remove touchwiz. it merely gives you more control over your phone and allows you to improve it as you wish.

Maybe you should have done your research before posting rude responses which don't contain the answer to a "stupid" or
simple" question. I'm referring to the sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2320430

@TheAxman is right. When there is threads on page 1 about exactly what you are asking there is no reason to start a new thread. It has always happened and will always happen though. By calling out people you teach them. If everyone holds newbs hands they never care to learn and will continue bad behavior.
The following was my opinion. I am solely responsible for it.

If this is an old topic sorry but I do not have time for read all related treads.
This is what's happened,
Rooted ATT S4, installed twrp 2.5.0.2,
Installed Sho 1.5, used Loki doki
I was getting the costum screen with the padlock warning when booting. All was well.
Decided to try beta 4.3 rooted, now the padlock screen is gone and I get regular boot screen. Download screen says Samsung official.
I'm still rooted and booting OK.
Uninstalled and installed clean rom ,
Flashed lokidoki, still rooted and boot screen still stock.
Is this normal?
If this is in the wrong place pls move it and if this s old news delete it.

If you don't have time to read, then we don't have time to answer your questions. Even if we did answer your question that has been brought up many times before, would you have the time to read the answers?
Don't be lazy and read through the information on here. Or else no one will help you, and rightfully so.

So everytime you search for something you find it right? And you also read thru the thousands of pages right?
The reason I posted is because I believed I had something to contribute in the development side.

Oh god ! Im so so sorry I offended you men! I hate my life! :crying::crying::crying:
Nothing good going to come out of this.
Loving the QuickWindow feature of this phone, but disappointed by the small number of apps that support it and the limited functionality of it. The Galaxy S4 version allows for complete reading of incoming text messages as well as their dismissal. And also to visibility of who your missed calls are from too I think..
It would be great for Google Play Music to be supported also.
So I guess this is a request for development along those lines... Thanks!

No I haven't. Sorry. I knew there were specific forums for specific purposes, and knew this was not the section to post a question, but thought a development request was fitting. I apologize. Admin, please delete thread as I've already posted it in the General Help Q/A section..

don't let it get to you !! and thanks for your hard work am keeping an eye on things and watching development of the g2 as I have an n4 and a g2 its brand new and although i'm rooted and twrp ed I am a little reluctant to mess with it until I know it a little better
I hope we see some development finally because I'm tired of using a lot of different apps to tweak the rom and kernel.
It's like a twrp recovery

Been a while since I've gotten into the root game. I'm back into an S4! So what do you guys think are the best apps I should download?? And what do they do?
Thanks in advance!!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using Tapatalk
Each app is different as are people's tastes in apps. You will have to decide what you need/want. Best app/ROM threads are not really allowed on XDA. You are required to research and find what you should use.

Like what was mentioned, be careful not to ask questions with "best mods/tools/apps/elephants/bananas for the <insert phone model here>". Mods won't like it.
However, these two forums should be able to help you:
1. General
2. App Dev
... and Google of course. Good luck.
Oh okay. Thanks alot guys for the positive feedback. I'll take a look.

If you have to ask this question why did you root in the first place? I ask that in all seriousness. You're risking bricking your device by rooting if you mess something up, why would you take that risk if you're not sure what root does.
pguillory -
The question you should ask is "Do I need root and what would I use it for?"
My easy first answer:
Titanium Backup.
ES File Explorer
(BTW, there really is very little risk bricking it if you use the easy method. Search forum for the thread.)
