I looked in the build.prop and it says ro.carrier=unknown
I have sprint services but am unable to send picture text messages. I had to get a 3rd party messaging app to be able to send picture messages properly. So it works with my network but it is not perfect.
Anyone have any suggestions?

That's weird. Root fully enabled mine, and I've gone through the process twice. What firmware version are you using, and did you apply root to a fresh restore, or just on top? Did you disable those 3 packages as per the instructions?
I uploaded an apk of Galaxy Tools. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK Seriously. It may be able to help, or at least shed some light on the issue. It is potentially very dangerous, so do so with caution.

I believe it was a clean wipe. Yes I disabled those 3 packages.

Carat identified it as a potential hog but there's no .apk bearing the specific name. What is it, what does it do, and where can I find it to kill it should I decide I want to?
Not sure if it is true, but someone at Androidforums said he froze it and it disables Bluetooth. Would post source, but can't as I do not have 10 post.
I would freeze it and see if it is true. If not then just keep it frozen.

I don't use titanium, that being said I can't find it to freeze it, I found the same post but once again, no info on where it resides.

You can try using, "App Quarantine ROOT/FREEZE". Otherwise I would assume it is in, "System/APP". But I do not have that service/app on the Verizon version.

One would think but I didn't find anything named that there, doesn't mean it isn't there but I'm guessing it's floating around with a different name. I searched with root explorer.

You can use System Restore to search and freeze the application. Free version can do that, but your phone must be rooted.
Btw, which version you have? On my, D802, I didn't find this app.

VZW, but I'm almost certain it's tucked away, labeled as some other app.

Any help or suggestions?

I've had my N3 since day 1 but due to lack of a PC I was unable to root until last night. I was on MJE and rooted using Kingo with USB 3.0. All went well, got root, super user, installed safe strap recovery, etc. The problem I have is actual with the transparent weather widget I flashed. I am new to Safe strap but all I did was download and flash like I would've in TWRP or CWM and it was successful but afterwards I rebooted and I have some sort of issue with the weather widget gps and settings. See pics. Anything I missed? Or didn't do?

*Also should probably note that when I tap on the weather widget and the weather app first opens, for a real quick second it says "already registered" but it disappears too quick to grab a screen shot.

Where did you get the zip? Just making sure it's for our device.

Yeah it was. I actually figured it out and solved my own problem lol. I had to delete the odex accuweather file that was under the accuweather apk file that i replaced. As soon as i deleted that and rebooted it worked. I just didn't know if i should or not because inside the system/app folder there were other apk files for other apps that had odex files below them too and those were all apk's that were stock/pre installed so I was hesitant to delete it. Took a chance and it worked out. I'll leave this up just in case it helps anyone else with newb tendencies like me lol. However if anyone needs to delete this thread or needs me to, that's ok too. Who knows? It may help someone.

Build them in yourself, search for them, wait until someone does the mod, or go back to KitKat... I don't know what other answer you expect. To build them in yourself, you'll have to be deodexed.

I don't know what is the wrong with it.
It made me crazy trying to activate my device with no success.
And suddenly after many reboots for my device it dissappeared.
How? I don't know.

Annoying app offering

Hi 2 everyone,
I have Xiaomi MI2S with MoKee ROM and found out that after every install (does NOT matter if its app, game etc.) this weird app-offer comes out at the bottom of the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
...anyone has the idea whats that and how to get rid of it? Any ideas strongly appreciated!
Sincerely, JayM
Mabye is some launcher or some kind of built-in app store you have.
Yep, already tried to change the launcher (GO Launcher) and also tried to freeze some suspicious apps but still NO luck...
Well it's strange, because I had for a long time Mokee Kit Kat (that seems you have) and I never experienced this sort of problem.
Did you remove useless system apps? Mabye you can post your app list to see if could help.
EDIT: from a quick research those pop-ups are releated to some GO app (GO SMS probably), you need to uninstall it and try something else.

Here it is: https://www.google.it/webhp?sourcei...TF-8#q=these apps may suit your taste&es_th=1
Best advise would be to get rid off all go products a d then go through and remove the left over files. They have long been known for things like this and huge security issues
THX 2 both of U guys - will try it for sure - GREAT HELP!

Yes, root with Magisk and then use this guide to apply OTA. https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md

This looks very complicated for a typical user like me. Is there any other way or a chance of there will be an easier way to complete this task?

Well, don't root your phone if you are not confident enough to follow 3 steps guide. It probably can't get easier

Will I lose anything besides 1-tap OTA update (as it works right now in unrooted phone). I just don't want any other surprises after it will be rooted
Thanks you for your reply!

In theory - SafetyNet can get broken, banking and other apps might refuse to start with root, there is slow camera start with root on Oreo present,.. In most cases there are fixes available, but it involves a bit of user involvement (search for an answer and apply the fix).
