[Q] [Question] GS5 Replace 'My Mag' w/ Contacts - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had a Rom installed and cant seem to find it nor know the name of it, that is what makes it hard to find. Swiping from left to right on the home screen wil give you the option to replace the My Magazine. I had replaced it with my contact for easy access. Is there a flashable mod out there or do I have to flash a new rom with this tweak in it. If so what is the name? Also I have Galaxy s5 with Ambasadii v7.0 and I first had stock music on it and found a flashable zip to hopefully install the s6 music app but now i tap on music and it crashes. I had to DL a new music app for my music, but is there a way to fix this w/o reflashing the whole Rom again. Thanks in advance

[Q] gallery and music player problem after installing clean and stable add on

I have just installed the clean and stable add on for android market on my vega and the gallery and music player keep crashing every time i try to open it.
How could this be solved?
Sorry if this is in the wrong section
Hi There,
I am the creator of that add-on. The gallery has been replaced with the 3d gallery, this is not my work and i have had no issues with it or none reported. The add-on will not effect the music player at all. So it really is hard to tell what is causing this, have you installed anything else?
Are you using the small taskbar? if so this is only for Advent v1.09 firmware
The only way to be sure is to flash the stock v1.09 firmware and then re-flash my add-on. you can remove the 3d gallery by deleting gallery3D.apk from the system/app folder (using winrar) before flashing my add-on.
Take it easy
Hi,
thanks for the reply, it seams to have ffixed its self. Also i have downloaded a different gallery app from the market so it is all cool
Many thanks

[Q] Lost Stock Music Player on Defy+ - can I get it back?

I have a Defy which is on a custom ROM. I bought a Defy+ as a backup but decided to use that instead and try to run it on stock ROM. It was fine until I put a few of my apps on it and it became really sluggish. In the end I rooted the Defy+ and removed some of the stock apps by renaming the corresponding apk files as bak in the system/app folder. This appears to have sorted the problem and the phone runs fine.... except that I appear to have lost the music player. I installed another music player - which worked but conflicted with my lock screen so I wondered if I could get the stock music player back. I've tried renaming likely suspects back to apk from bak but nothing seems to have sorted it (and none of them look too likely anyway). The list of those renamed are

Are any of these stock player related?
The only other thing I remember is looking up TuneWiki when I was doing the cleanup but it doesn't appear on the above list... so I don't know where that is.
Any help appreciated! Thanks,
Take a backup and flash the corresponding sbf. Or try downloading a stock system nandroid for your system version, and get the player apk from there

Thanks. I was hoping not to get into the flashing and restoring business again (I know that's what this forum is mainly about though) and wondered if it was a simple matter of one of the above files being put back to an apk or just putting an apk in the system/app directory. I guess the latter option you suggest may be the easiest but I don't know what the player apk is - I am pretty sure wouldn't have renamed anything that looked like it was a player apk in the first place

[Q] Lollypop and Touch wiz

Hi Guys,
Can't find anything specific about this, so if it is about somewhere apologies.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 all in full working order. That was until I installed from 4.4.2 to Lollypop 5. Since then the TouchWiz has stopped working. I noticed this when I tried to move some recently installed apps (installed before the OS upgrade) in to folders that were already created. When I hold the app to slide it into the appropriate folder I get
"Unfortunately, TouchWiz Home has stopped".
Has anyone else had the same problem and does anyone know of a working solution as I have not found one yet that works. Without it any new downloads will simply sit on more and more pages instead of in the correct folder for it's function.
Hope that makes sense.
Thanks in Advance

[Q] removing S Finder & Quick Connect from Notification Panel

A few days ago i went from two years of CM back to stock (to try MM-Stock). I really like it, but there is this one annoying thing, i remember from KK. The S Finder and Quick Connect shortcuts directly in the Notification Panel. Back at KK i used the Xposed module Xposed G-Touchwiz. But as i tried, this doesn't work anymore/yet. I also ran the Barebone Cleaner, which sucessfully deleted both programs, but the shortcut stays.
Has anyone an idea/a solution to delete these?
If that's important, i run the ported SM-G900M 6.0.1 Firmware with Phoenix Kernel.
Cheers

Delete or rename (I usually rename)
"/system/etc/permissions/com.sec.feature.findo.xml"
Thanx for the answer, but it didn't work for me. I renamed the file, rebooted twice, but it's still there.

Is there a way to install Xiaomi Apps in a Custom ROM?

Hi. I recently change my phone ROM to a custom one, after one year using the phone just as it came.
I installed Pixel Experience+, which its great, but there's two stock apps that I miss: Mi Screen Recorder and Mi security app.
Stock screen record was awesome: Just one touch on status bar to start recording, a floating button to start/stop and it let you record system audio and mic audio, choose 1080/720, 30/60 fps, etc. The Pixel experience+ one its just start/stop and nothing else, I don't even know if it's HD.
Security app was great too: Good trash cleaner, and a App Lock option by pin/fingerprint that it works great.
Is there a way to install those apps in Pixel Experience rom ? I tried to install apkmirror apks but it didn't work. Maybe it's something that it needs to be flashed. Or something that it just can't be done, that's why im asking.
Thanks!
ps: I just intalled the ROM, I didn't root the phone.
Some of them.
Short answer is NO at the moment there isnt any zip file that you flash it and boom Mi apps installed. (like the gapps) What you can do is to track & find which Mi-apps you want to install (manually).
What i had done in the past was to find the Mi Home launcher apk and the gallery i thing if you search you may find more apks but keep in mind that you can replace every single one app, just search for an alternative.

Thanks for the answer. That's bad new, I really liked those apps.
Yeah, I tried to download Screen Recorder and Mi Security apks from akpmirror and install it, but I couldn't.
I guess I'll have to try a third part app lock and screen recorder. Any suggestion?
uum... try to avoid 3rd party app lock (your custom rom may include that option already) as for screen recorder nop i dont have any suggestion. :|
