Okay I have now successfully rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 N900t.
Now what should I do? Any advice or suggestions anyone
What do you guys recommend doing with it?
If I have to install something please provide where and how to install it please. I need as much help as I can get!
Please be as detailed as possible as I am very new at this.
Thank you ahead of time anyone who responds! :highfive:
You can freeze unused apps with titanium backup. You can change system sounds or disable camera shutter sound boot sound etc. You can disable increasing Ringtone. And You can flash any custom mod from recovery. Etc etc
FIRST do a complete back up. ...After do what you want. ...
Don't get me wrong but normaly you wanna do something with your phone that turns out to need ROOT and so you root.
Somehow you reversed this so now your ROOTED but you don't know why,he he.
Start by reading about making a NANDROID BACKUP in case anything goes wrong,that would be my first step.
Respect!

Oh gosh I rooted to get rid of the bloatware I have on my note. Is that a good reason? Lol (i'm seriously not sure)
Okay now how would i do this NANDROID BACKUP? Where do I start learning about it? Or if you know directly explain it me a bit like how will I use it, and where could I find it?
Thank you for any help you can give me!

Could I also use Titanium Back up to do this process or does it have to be done via CWM or TWRP?
If I have to use those for example CWM which one do I choose "Download Recovery" or "Download Touch Recovery"? I'm guessing which ever I choose I put the apk on my sd card and run it right?
You can save your apps with titanium but not your system...you have to flash your recovery with Odin. ..

Also, why when I'm trying to remove Samsung Crap from our phones with Root Explorer, it comes back?
Then how do we get a recovery on it?
Doesn't seem to come back with Root Manager, so use that instead.

i'm rooted and i was trying to remove the phone.apk from sys/app and it kept coming back. i wanted the vibrant version of the phone app and had the apk, but it wouldn't delete or over write. seems to be a nand issue to me
nandroid backup would be nice

that is because the phone is heavily tied into the framework

I've rooted and am running Titanium Backup. Can someone please give me a short run down of how to delete bloatware apps using this utility? I looked through the menus, but nothing was obvious to me. Definitely still new to this system, so I'd rather not just start pushing buttons!
Thanks,

You know I use to have a Behold II with T-Mobile. I would always use the custom roms from BH_Man. And there was never no recovery Nandroid or recovery with it like on the HTC Hero. You also have to use something called ODIN to install your roms. Go into a download mode and install from your PC. There was no way of installing off a SD card like we are use to from RA Recovery. Unless things have changes please correct me. Just my expierence with Samsung custom roms.

I am wanting to install the LG G Flex Split View mod by Bigfau on my rooted LG G2 but I do not know how to "Flash in recovery and reboot."
Can anyone help me through this process? I was reading up on the flash guide here on the forum and saw that I needed a custom recovery installed before flashing. Is this really needed to just add the split view feature? If so, how can I go about doing this?
thx

yea, unfortunately, a custom recovery is needed to flash any mods or zips. It does not work with stock recovery. The only thing you can flash with stock recovery is a rom, but since you need gapps and so on for the rom to work properly, you need a custom recovery.
I find TWRP the easiest recovery to work with, here's the link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449679
There is no need for custom recovery... Use the Flash Gordon app from play store. All you need is root and busybox. You can flash zips but not ROMS..
Sent from my LG-D802 using xda app-developers app
Hmmm, two different answers. Thanks for the quick replies though.
I don't think I need any roms, I am just trying to take the zip file mod in the link and get it working on my stock LG G2. I know it will work on the stock Verizon phone, but I have no idea how to do the flashing.
If I use an app from the play store, I read that it may, "lack the ability to wipe the Dalvik cache (affecting the JIT compiler)." Will this be a problem for me?

I'll go ahead and try it out later today. I am not against installing a custom recovery if it is useful later. But I don't plan on installing any custom roms ever. Is there any use for a custom recovery outside of custom roms that cannot be accomplished by Flash Gordon App?

The ability to backup your device (make a NANDROID, as it is called). If you have a rooted device and intend to mess with it, I would say that a nandroid backup is a must . The good thing about a nandroid, something which Titanium Backup can't is to restore the whole system and boot. On the other hand, you might find some apps missing, so it's best to back up apps though Titanium Backup and your system/boot etc through Custom Recovery.
Oh and by the way, please tell me how the split-view thingy works once you have done it

Did not work with busybox + flash gordon. Seems the .zip contains some system files which are not able to be edited through flash gordon. I'll try to install a custom rom then I guess.

To set split view whiich works wonders wen modding phones ? you have to set one of your nave bars to open it mine is set as the back button. Long press is why you just press the front nav bar in stead off tapping it. Correct me if im erong but i think you must also be running xposed installer with one of the g2 settings apps found in the playstore. I flashed split view using flashify and it works fine munis not being able to use the knock feature wen engaged.

I do not have xposed and holding down the back button launches the program for me.
The program works after installing it from recovery in TWRP, but after installation, I pressed wipe cache and it was in the process when my phone screen turned off. I couldn't get it to turn back on, and eventually just held down the power button for 10 seconds to get it to boot normally. It works now, but what can I do to avoid that happening again?
That im not too sure about wen i wipe my chace and dalvik it completes the action and just romdomly cuts the phone off. When ever your wiping i say the best thing to do is just too make sure you have a back in cases something goes wrong

I have the i9505, everything is stock. Stock Rom before, everything. I just rooted my phone yesterday.
I meant both. My phone, software, everything is stock. Its as if it came from the box. I can, of course, just re isntall everything but I had SO MANY things.
I am using i9505 CWM Recovery 6.0.3.2
I installed it and reinstalled it using Odin3 v3.09
And yes I did, but i cant get back to it because i cant access CWM.
thank you so much for helping!
I cant help but get freaked out as I LOVED my s4 so much but now its as if i didnt own it.
i give up. i think i'll just reinstall everything back and set everything up again. this gives me the opportunity to clean everything i guess. no custom roms for me. thanks everyone!

And yes I think a stock rom would be better for you. You shouldn't pannic when something goes wrong. It's almost impossible to brick your s4.

Getting rid of OTA updates on a rooted device by freezing "Software Update" apps
I have a rooted Galaxy s10+ with android pie. Doesn't freezing "Software Update" system apps of my android by Titanium Backup make booting problems for my device? Is it safe for me to freeze those apps? I ask because I've heard freezing some system apps like "Device Care" stops the device from booting. As other fellas I get ota update notifications and I wanna get rid of them by freezing those apps.
not a soul to answer?
dont know, never used it on this app
why dont you just hide the notifications?

because they come back, of course I tried that. you cannot just hide their notifications. They are system apps which android doesn't let you to hide their notifications. you can even stop the apps with some apps but they come back. I just wanna know the answer to my question because all other ways has already been tried and they were unsuccessful.
You can freeze the software update without issues, or at least you could back in Galaxy S4 days. Pie might work differently than lollipop.

Some ideas:
Autonotification blocks permanent notifications permanently .
Or make a Nandroid backup with TWRP and restore if necessary.
Or use TWRP file manager (or aroma file manager https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108) to backup packages .xml file (should work also on PIE) in the data/system folder, which contains information About enabled and disabled packages.

Ok.
Always know that having root without having a custom recovery (TWRP) can be very risky because, in case you or some root-app make your phone bootloop, you cannot recover easily (And you lose your data).

Thanks for your advice. Yea you are right but at the moment s10+ was just released and its TWRP wasn't working properly. I'm an advanced user but I just don't have enough time to do it all over again let alone getting back up gets much time itself.
Still waiting for the answer folks ?
SO basically you are asking someone else to potentially F*** up their phone because you are not willing to try it yourself ? Sorry, but that's how it sounds....

Of course not. Some people have enough time to try different software and ways to make phones better. Some even have recovery software like TWRP which can undo if something go wrong. I'm asking them to share if they had the experience I mentioned. I was one of them a while ago.
