customisation without root - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

A friend of mine bought this phone, and he wants to customise the phone but without rooting the phone.
Is that possible with GravityBox / Xposed Installer / Xutilities ?
Thank you in advance.

so fare that I know, all the apps you mentioned need root access.
Cheers.

thanks will have a look, why havent you rooted yet, quiet a few options now to root, had mine done in under 2 minutes, and yet am terrible when it comes to rooting.
titanium backup (can remove some useless stock apps: PostCard, Chinse Keybord, BBC playr ...; freezes some apps that you dont use: SE sync, TimeScape ..., and move apps to sd: XP games other than the stock one, FPSE ...)
busybox
adFree
sd speed increase (it really works!!)
To ad some more:
Screenshot apps.
Fontchanger.
Root explorer (filemanager).
Terminal emulater (changing/overwriting/modding/moving files in /system/).
Widget locker (does work without root, but gives you an option to work better with root permission).
Metamorph (don't know if it works on the XP or without unlocked bootloader).
Regards Dousan...

Nope you can download and install emulators from the market
as for the roms just put them in a folder where you can easily find your roms
No root required
I didn't root my xperia play yet but planning to root apps I use on my x10 are

If you root you can delete a lot of standard installed apps, removing them safes battery life significantly in my experience.

well guys .... hate to say it but i have tried all the conventional root methods and still no root.apparently some of the methods gets superuser installed but still cannot get proper root. frameroot's says its rooted but no its not (root checker says no root). one of the root method even gave me a "un-rootable FW version".
but the real problem is that this qualcomm s4 play processor (8265q) have not been used in any phones(or i have not been able to find any). so root method is still unknown. can someone tell me if the bootloader is locked like htc. then we still have fastboot options......
i tried everything no proper method works..
but rooted it on my own with improper method..lol

Is there a way to disable the annoying "Low Battery" sound/popup??

It's so annoying and I searched but could not find a way to disable it!

Most sounds are read off the oggs located in system/media/audio/ui
You'll see your file there. You can replace the file if you want. I have mine say, "You are weak. You must feed." It's off the Soul Reaver game back in the PS1 days.

You can disable it by installing the Xposed framework then installing the Xposed Tweakbox module.

There is an application for that:

You do not need to "root" or "jailbreak" your phone to use this app.
It will work directly, on any smartphone.

[Q] Root Call Blocker on S5 Plus (S5 LTE-A SM-G901F)??

Hi to all.
I have the Galaxy S5 G901F ( also known as Samsung Galaxy S5 LTE-A SM-G901F )
I would like to ask you if any of you is ussing Root Call Bloker for this phone. I have been using RCB Pro version on my S3 mini and it works perfect. always worked (just perfect).
But i have read that it doent work on android 4.4.4 and before I make root my mobile and getting Knox (0x1) i would like to know if it is working on it.
My only purpose of make it root, its to install RCB Pro, because its the only one that i've found that works, at leats in my previous mobiles.
This mobile has android 4.4.4 and CPU Qualcom Snapdragon 805 32-bit.
Thanks in advance, and if the moderator considers to move this tread to another forum more appropiated, please do it.
P.S: This mobile at least is suplied in Spain by Vodafone
I also want to know! Anyone?
Installed added a number tested and working :good:

Thanx a lot.

Aroma is a type of GUI for installing ROMs through recovery. It doesnt drain battery, it only runs when you flash ROM zips.

Hi Bleros.
I have installed the Netherlands rom and i made root and updated superSU and works RCB. SO its good and nice.
But I have a question. How could i hide the icon of RCB in my phone??
Previous versions gave you the oportunity of hide the icon, to access to the RCB you have to type a password.
Thanx in advance
Finish and working
