Is there a trick to install the hacked HotSpot? It keeps saying "Not Installed". I am stock rooted.
Edit : disregard, I must be tired. I don't even know I tried to read the op lol.
Thanks E4gN.

If your trying to install it like a normal .apk its not going to work. You have to move it to system\app and set the right permissions

What are the correct permissions may I ask? I have friend that just rooted her phone and wants the hotspot hack instead of wifi tether. Are the permissions the same as others, need to be inverted "7"?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I believe, if it goes in /system/app , as noob stated, then permissions will be rw-r-r. Same as other apks in system/app.

No, no, no, no....if you are not using a rooted custom ROM.
The hotspot hack(s) will only work on deodexed ROMs which you must flash through recovery. Since stock ROM is odexed, the only way you will receive the hotspot hack other than using the wifi tether app is to flash a rooted custom (possibly rooted stock) ROM which is deodexed, which most of them are.
The hotspot hack works on odexed roms check out the classic it only comes odexed and has hotspot working u can do anything odexed u can deodexed now a days

Ok, 1 odexed ROM. I still have never seen a hotspot hack that wasn't part of a custom ROM, unless I've missed it somewhere, and have never found one for stock ROM, unless it was a custom rooted stock ROM.
Ummm try looking there are modded hotspots to oush to your rom with instructions all over the dev section

I've always just flashed a rom that has hacked hotspot baked in. It's never caused any problems. I used it as my ISP for an entire summer with no issues.
Ok, so I'm rooted with superuser. How do I set those permissions when it put it in the system/app folder?

It's much easier to either use the wifi tether app or just flash a rooted ROM with the hotspot already hacked, since every hotspot hack I ever did needed to be done in a CUSTOM ROM anyway.
Also, that system/app thing (with the rw-r--r-- permissions) will install the app, but will not hack it into working, tried that about a year ago.

Well I am fairly new to Android, and I am very weary of flashing my ROM. The only reason I want to is so I can uninstall system apps, as I cannot even uninstall them threw ES File Explorer. (I am rooted)
Or am I simply doing something wrong?
Anyway, what is a good, stable, reliable ROM? I looked at some on here, but they were beta, or an ICS version. I really love the stock icon pack on mine as well.
:s
I am on 4.1.1
Just to uninstall apps? Well... If you like the Moto Blur skin, just get an app freezing/quarantine app...
ROM wise, our current selection is nice. Its what you prefer. You should research the different flavors like Cyanogen Mod and Eclipse. Just to get an idea of what makes those ROMs different from one another. Then get comfortable with safe strap and have at it!

I say just freeze them so you can receive OTA updates. You need those apps present to do it!
Sent from my XT907 using xda premium
What is an app freezing/quaratine app? If I can remove system apps without changing ROM, then I would much rather do that. And CM does not offer an official version for Razr M, yeah? Which of the two unofficials, 10 & 10.1, is more stable?
I am not sure where to go to learn all this. :s

Titanium Backup. All you need is root, no custom rom necessary.
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
Yeah TiBu allows you to uninstall the bloat rather than freezing if that's what you're looking for

I used I think was Hiuiuninstaller. Something along those lines. To uninstall my system apps.
Thanks for the help though!

You can both uninstall and freeze with Titanium Backup.
Sent from my XT907 using xda app-developers app
App Quarantine is very simple. It just freezes the app, and hides it away. TiBU is good too! I prefer AQ because of the simplicity of it. You choose from the list of apps what you would like frozen and then hit the lock icon in the top right. Very simple.

What are you guys using for adblock on your rooted s4?
tried adblock plus, fixed the settings. worked for regular browser, and chrome, but some apps stopped connecting.
Surely, there is a global adblock that works on all apps on s4.
I use Ad away. I think its pretty beast.
Adaway for sure.
Adblock plus using easylist, that one seems to work the best for me on my tablet, and fanboy's list works better on my phone(captivate glide).

Ended up installing from https://code.google.com/p/ad-away/ via fdroid. Apparently most of the current tools rely on modifying the hosts file to direct ad sites to localhost..
Crossbreader looks like they have implemented something along the lines of pixelserv in tomato where it serves up an empty white space of 1x1 pixel, which I assume has aesthetic value, though I wonder if it provides a performance advantage to the above options?

Did you install this on top of the kernel / rom? I currently have kuban (rom) and agat (kernel). Can I just install this crossbreader on top?

Yes sir. You dont need to wipe or anything. Just put it onto to your storage and flash it from recovery and it does the rest itself and your good to go.
Read the original thread if you want an indepth explanation to what exactly it does, it is really thorough. Also be sure to also grab the uninstall zip from the thread and put it on your phone as well. If you ever want to take off Crossbreeder for any reason, just go into recovery, flash that zip and your good to go.:thumbup:

Wow that was surprisingly easy. I made the switch, to crossbreader. Hopefully this works faster than the hosts file method. I've heard good things about frandom, but no idea how to get it to work with kuban rom and agat kernel. I have a 64gb exfat microsdxc, so am staying away from other kernels for now.
What is your setup with cross breader (rom/kernel, etc...). My friends keep saying how their iphone scrolls faster and I would like to show them otherwise wit h this android.

Yup process takes like two seconds! :good:
You don't need to do anything to get frandom to "work". If the kernel your using has the frandom module, which Agat's kernel does indeed have, Crossbreeder automatically detects it and utilizes it. All three kernels out right now, Faux, Agat, KT, all have the frandom module so you don't need to worry about it. (Actually I'm not sure about Faux but you get what I mean).
I'm just running Force Rom 1.1 because none of the TW roms are actually much different from stock other then removed bloat and a little theming at the moment, so I'll be on that until the goodies start pouring out.
In the meantime I'm running KT's kernel OC'd to 1998 or 2106 with a few tweaks here and there in Ktweaker. Plus Crossbreeder 5.21.13. (Also installed Viper4Droid for sound modifications)
So, what adblock solution do you use? Since Google banned adblockers from the play store I have been using AdFree, but after I upgraded to KitKat it's no longer working.
Are there any other apps worth using or a hosts file provider you know of?
Thanks!

If you're rooted XAD works well
Adblock Plus does the work just fine for me.

The idea is nice enough, but I really like the hosts file solution as it blocks all ads system-wide regardsless of app.
Might return to it if I can't find an alternative, thanks.

CrashROM has a host enabled adblock app, can't remember off the top of my head which it is, but it works well also.

Yes. And yes. It's a complete ad block as complete as it gets. It's got a perk in that it doesn't even need root! (Although it DOES work better with root)
It has options to allow non - intrusive ads too. Which is actually helpful that it blocks all ads that are annoying and let's correctly used ads stay so that good developers get their money too

The reason is really simple. Wanam Xposed is for TW based roms. You are not on that. Thus it will never work.

Because you don't give information about what rom you are using (saying that you use kk 4.4 says nothing). My guess would be that you use an incompatible rom.
Did you read the first post in gravity box?
- DO NOT USE WITH CUSTOM ROMS LIKE CM,AOSPA,ROOTBOX,AOKP,SLIM, OMNI AND THEIR OTHER CLONES... IT MAKES NO SENSE AND CAN CAUSE CONFLICTS AND UNEXPECTED BEHAVIOUR
I was just giving that module as example of what you could use.
Well I'm using stock ROM of Samsung and not only gravity box but other modules don't work.. None work..
