Hello, I am a super noob and just wanted to ask some questions. I recently bought a Nexus 4 and successfully rooted it with all the help of a tool kit from the forum. After trying 5-6 custom roms i decided that i want to keep to stock rom, therefore the following questions came up. 1) Can I put mods like the X-beats or Wi-Fi fix or the YouTube fix (all found in this forum) in the stock rom or not? and 2) In Greece there is a problem with the sms characters, in particular we can't get 160 chars per sms. In the roms I used, only in 2-3 of them this was fixed. So my next question is: Can I fix this in the stock rom (without adding an extra sms app or extra keyboard via the play store). Thanks in advance.. I 'll be waiting for your answers..
Answers:
1) Yes I can cause I tried it and my Nexus didn't explode and they work fine!
2) Still don't know, although the extra keyboard (tried 2 off them) didn't work out only 64 characters. So any other ideas would be appreciated thanks again for your time..
You can replace the stock mms apk with a modded one. There are a couple here in the themes and apps section and a couple in the Galaxy Nexus themes and apps section that will work.

Hello everybody,
I really need help to install viper4android in samsung galaxy A800I.
I`ve tried several time with several tricks. but can`t yet. It always asks for installing driver.
here are the device profile :
Device = Samsung Galaxy A8 (A800I)
Chipset = Exynos 5433
Rom = Stock 5.1.1 with stock kernel (latest update)
SE for Android Status = enforcing
Rooted = yes (with Supersu).
Busybox = yes (stericson) with run parts.
Init.d support = yes and working (With Test.Log file in /data folder)
Permissive.zip = Installed
Viper supolicy.zip = installed
Selinuxmode changer = tried,but didn`t work
Viper fix 1.1 by Dr.ketan = Installed
Samsung Knox = Unistalled (Through TB)
Xposed = Working flawlessly
root Explorer = Installed
Sd-fix = Installed
Terminal Emulator = Installed (applied all commands for making setenforce = 0)
Music Player Used = google Music Player, gonemad music player, Poweramp etc
** Adapt sound and Sound alive apps are disabled (Through TB)
** I`ve tried other Viper audio (Moded) from this forum, but didn`t work.
These are the things I do for installing viper4android successfully.
But can`t yet.
I`m a viper fan and I used it from my first smart device.
Would anybody pls help me to fix this viper issue ? What did i miss ?
BTW, I think Viper is not working (installing the driver) only because of Selinux mode is "enforcing". And I`ve tried my best to make it permissive (for last 2-3 days). But can`t. Can anybody pls make a kernel patch which makes the it "permissive". I want stock kernel (maybe patched or modified, but no custom kernel), as perticular this build gives me excellent battery life and no heating or any other issues.
So, it would great if anybody help me to fix this issue.
Regards
Micheal86.

Its actually very difficult to install V4A with SELinux enforcing, despite several claims of it working with enforcing.
Also know tht there's no fixed method to install V4A. One has to keep trying different methods
These are the things u cld try ("REMEMBER TO TAKE A BACK UP OF YOUR ROM BEFORE TRYING THIS"):-
Here it goes:-
1) Search the post of member AndrasLOHF on viper4android.
U'll find the zips on the 236th page of this post.
2) Another post tells u to flash the following two zips :-
"Viper4A-_Soundfix-LibFiles_-CWM.zip" & "Viper4A-_Build.Prop-Tweaks_-CWM.zip", alongwith flashing V4A zip.
3) U cld also try the post , Viper4Android Working on S6 Edge.
Hopefully, one of these might work.
Best of Luck :good:
P.S - I'm using A7 & not A8 but the above posts are not meant to work on one particular model, so u can certainly try.

Thanks mate for your reply.
i`ll try these things and give feedback.
But one thing I want to share with you that I was trying to install viper4android for last 3 - 4 days. but can`t. I`ve searched and googled to fix this issue. And interestingly I`ve found that the main thing behind this is Samsung Knox. Knox makes it impossible to do anything beyond security. It doesn`t allow to make Selinuxmode to permissive and most probably for that reason we can`t install viper and any other mods. I`m trying to remove/uninstall knox with several ways and tricks, but can`t do yet.
It is possible if we can make a patch or modify the stock kernel. But I can`t do this because I don`t know how to do this .
BTW, do you have any idea ?
Thank you once again.

I'm very sorry but I'm not a dev, Just a fan of V4A.
I can certainly tell u tht knox can be removed, after rooting, using "uninstall system apps" app without any effect on the installation of V4A.
I've successfully installed V4A on my S4 (korea model) & now on A7(Indian model), by removing knox just from this app. So Knox should not be a worry.
There is a custom kernel compiled by @ashyx. Its a selinux permissive, rooted kernel.
the link is http://forum.xda-developers.com/sam.../kernel-permissive-ll-5-11-kernel-sm-t3312817.
Credit goes to Ashyx for the compilation.
All the best!!!

Thanks mate.
you`re really very helpful.
I too really love viper very much.
I`ll try your procedures to install Viper, and give you the feedback.
Thanks for the link. I want stock (modified, only set to permissive and nothing else, because this build is really excellent for battery life) kernel.
BTW, need some more information.
1. Does viper (driver status) shows "Processing - Yes" (in your both devices) ? Because it`s very important for sound effects.That`s why I`m asking.
2. Which apps you`ve uninstalled for removing knox from your devices ?
3. Which version of viper4android are you using ?
BTW, What is the actual name of this app ? Is it System app remover ? Because I do`nt find the app you recommended.

Development for A-series models have just started (as u can see from the forum ), so you might not find stock kernel with selinux permissive for the time being.
But you can always try that custom kernel and see if it helps your purpose
I've attached a screenshot of V4A installed in A7(2016) with processing "Yes".
I'm using the latest version of V4A(2.4.0.1).
Now, regarding the app, the link is https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp&hl=en
I've used it to remove Knox and have not faced any problems in V4A installation because of Knox.
If u want further cleaning, you can use "root explorer" or "es file explorer" to delete knox completely.
If you still are unable to install V4A, just share your installation steps.
I'll try to help
If you are an audiophile and fan of V4A just like me, you will have to keep trying the different methods of installation

Thank you so much.
I`ve (we) done it.
Viper4android is working in A8. Thanks mate for giving me the links and ideas. It`s also working with "processing = yes".
Yes, I`m too an audiophile an a fan of viper like you. that`s why I was trying it for last 6 - 7 days.
I`m using Viper 2.3.4.0 ( With the help of the S6 Edge thread).
sorry file attaching with XDA feature doesn`t work with my browser for some days. that`s why I can`t upload any screenshots.
Ok. I`ve got the app.
Actually I wanted to know that which system files (names of the files) you`ve removed to remove knox from your device ? I`ve tried to remove all the knox related files through root explorer, but it didn`t work (got bootloop). That`s why I`m asking ?
BTW, I agree with you. The A series (specially A8) has nearly no development. A8 is a 2015`s phone , but there is not a single custom rom, no mods, no stock modified kernel. I don`t know why no Devs are intersesting about this series ? I`m not a dev and a very ordinary member of XDA and love android. I`ve tried to make a custom(stock) rom and I`ve made it (Pre-rooted, Deloated, Zipaligned, with build prop and CSC tweaks) . But it doesn`t boot. It always stucks with the samsung Logo with non secure kernel message with red color. I think its all about the kernel (boot img). I`ve searched Xda and googled for help. I`ve tried my best .But got no fruitful result yet.
Anyway thank you once again.

glad I could help
Using the uninstaller app, just scroll down the "system apps" list & you can uninstall all the knox icons that you see. There are many files without any icon. Read them and you will find few files related to knox. Uninstall those files too.
Now, You should not find knox-related problems :good:

Hi.
I urgently want to use 2 specific app-windows side by side (musician-apps . live_bpm and drummers_metronome). Sadly both apps are not capable of this. I have the stock android v. 6.01.
Therefore I tested CM13 et voila - split-screen for the above two apps works flawlessly! So whats the problem?- One other feature that I
strongly want/need... in the stock rom (live-HDR in Camera and a few other camera-features) is now NOT working in CM13 because of missing camera2-api (at least this is the error-message in camera-app)
I found a possible solution myself - download the apk's, decompile and edit the manifest.xml. This should work, but I found no way to download the apks - both are legally purchased by me. The second way, to contact the developers, was wasted. _Both didn't reply.
Any idea how to achieve both features? Perhaps any different rom?
Solved!
I still don't know an exact answer to my question, but have found a solution: Newest Resurrection Remix Rom has multi-window-mode for every app (not only those who are made for this option as in stock-marshmellow...) AND realtime-hdr. I'm happy.
Been using LineAge OS for a while, it was nice. Freed up whole lot of spaces
Looking however for a new one as it has some issues and the one I used is unofficial
-How long will LineAge OS goes official and fixes some issues I have:
>Can not hear any calls from Viber or Facebook Messenger app, can only speak to other person
>Some apps would freeze or crash (mainly social apps like Facebook and Tumblr, game apps never crashed yet)
-Zapryannov seems to be a nice alternative, I am using G903W model. But feel free to shoot other alternatives
-Are there any special steps to flash new custom ROM from an existing one or do I reboot to TWRP, wipe stuff and flash Zip as usual?
-Cyanogenmod was popular in the past but I can't seem to find it, did they support S5 Neo before?
Custom ROM removes a lot of preinstalled apps that I have, hence I want it. Using stock rom and removing preinstalled apps seems unsafe (with root).

1- nobody knows. But what does it make a difference? Just for the status being "official"? It doesn't mean anything, I ran unofficial builds for years on various phones and some had problems others didn't.
The thing is, this device doesn't seem to have very much development going on, so maybe 1 or 2 Devs working on such a project won't make it bug free very fast. ROM development is a time consuming hobby.
U can probably help them speeding up development if u insist on getting this ROM "official".
1- > those are bugs, read above
1- > read above
2- just try, that's why where on xda, .. to try..
3- the usual
4- cyanogenmod is lineage os these days

Hello,

Thank in advance for your answer .

Hi I have same problem I searched and tried a lot of potential solutions without resolve it, the problem come from the rom (all roms based on Note Fe have this problem)
I also contact Snapchat """support"""" (because it was very bad) and I talk with a bot a lot of time always saying that it's my fault if my account is locked (Wow, excelent...)
And recently with a human who send me a copied text who say me that is my fault if my account is locked (so, it's perfect)
So I don't know what phone do you use ?
