One such place to get them is the following website (that's has a great reputation for providing unmodified/untouched apps).

Forgot to ask: I can't remember the names of the built-in stock apps that existed on the Samsung Galaxy S5, before installing LineageOS. I don't know the names of like the (stock) PDF viewer for instance.
Is there is list of them?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Without knowing your specific Variant, the following link provides a decent list of them...
https://www.tomsguide.com/us/samsung-galaxy-s5-guide,review-2821-2.html
... It's an article regarding Bloatware but, does provide an idea of what apps the Galaxy S5 (in general) comes with.
Good Luck!

The Challenge:
- Custom Rom Development, which has our Software pre Installed in system/app. (Long time goal is to get a easy to use framework, where we can choose, which applications shall be included and which bakes the rom after that)
- Remove /system/app/PhoneConfiguration.apk or so, which provides the setup steps after resetting the custom rom (Calibration, Language etc.)
- Enabling the Widget and placing it on "desktop" per default, which is included in our mobile app.

Yeah, because this looks really kosher doesn't it?
Member for 18 months with only 4 posts to your name, and you're posting an EXE with no instructions of how to use, and no description of what it does and how it works. That's then followed up by two practically identical "Good" posts from completely new users with very similar "style" user names.
Anyone who downloads and runs this is insane, because this appears to be all kinds of wrong. I may well be paranoid, but I'd advise anyone reading this thread to steer clear unless you've a particular penchant for malware.
DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS. THIS HAS NO CREDIBILITY.
MODS PLEASE CHECK THESE USERS.

You're absolutely right. So I checked the exe and at least it doesn't seem to be malware.
The exe is signed by www.shuame.com and originates from affiliated site www.sjroot.com - both sites seem quite legit, albeit using Google translate to interpret snippets of information.
The exe in question prompts you to connect the phone and enable USB debugging, after which it opens a root shell over ADB and correctly identifies the phone. THIS IS AS FAR AS I WENT! There is a potential for malware being delivered to the phone at this point but I think that would be an exceptionally elaborate ruse considering the established sites linked with this program. Someone else may want to check this but I need my phone for work today so I stopped short.
All seems well so far.

Nice List, I have been scouring the internet to find good ones.
I'm glad to find this topic. I was thinking to open a separare one, but this one correlates with my question, so I'll ask it here.
Any Android gaming forums that covers upcoming game out there?
Does anyone know any decent Android forums devoted to gaming (with upcoming games section) like TouchArcade for iOS? I mean with daily activity like on TouchArcade.
(except those already mentioned - they don't have active 'Upcoming Games' sections)
Good list

Good list, and it includes sites that people actually visit. However, imo reviews outside of the app stores don't mean a great deal. You'll get much further by putting your app in front of the right people and having them talk about it, embedding social features in your app to encourage people to talk about it, encouraging good reviews and managing bad reviews (offering good support is one way to do this).
Honestly, these lists are quite outdated.
As soon as I finish sending emails around I will post an updated spreadsheet on our website.

Always On display on Galaxy S8

Friends, how do I enable display mode loading on Always-On Display?
I had this function enabled before resetting my Galaxy S8, but I can not remember how I did it.
Thank you!

RetroPie for the Asus Tinkerboard (ROTT)

Hi, I'm Steve, I do some roms over on the s6/note5/treble forums. I recently purchased this board after noticing it was a big step up from raspberry pi. After buying the board I went looking for retro gaming options. Lakka exists. RetroPie is in development, done by custom developers. It is not an official RetroPie release or affiliated with the Official RetroPie on Raspberry Pi. However it works and looks the same. It is just an unofficial port. Currently it is working for many emulators. But Dreamcast, psp need work, and I wanted Saturn. I found the two guys developing the project and reached out to them(crash), and ultimately joined the team for ROTT(retropie on the tinkerboard). Links can be found in post #2. Please report any bugs as it will help us improve the project. Happy Gaming, or viewing, depending on what you do.
Current release is ROTT 1.1 Epic Edition.
** Fixed DC, PSP, and added Saturn.
The image repo/tutorial page is www.techtoytinker.com
There are no sales and no ads, just the info
Source/Kernel:
https://github.com/Albiorix2016/rott
https://developer.arm.com/products/software/mali-drivers/midgard-kernel
https://github.com/TinkerBoard/debian_kernel
ROTT v1.0.5b:
https://mega.nz/#F!Wx5nxA5Y!ewTJUAGNQ-ZobfEkuoTiRg
Just flash it to your SD card and go.
ROTT v1.0.6b BETA:
https://mega.nz/#F!bohSRKpD!DLwuW4CIS4HOWCNNH0wvSQ
I was able to get Sega Saturn to run really well with some tweaking. It will be included in a upcoming build. Dreamcast is also fine. N64 and ps1 are good. Psp is doing better now. The GPU has been set to it's Max of 600, finally unlocking the advantage this board has on the pi for gaming.
ROTT is up to 1.0.8 now. The deluxe version has mame and mess included.
Link:

More information can be found on my personal website at www.techtoytinker.com
Please note, there are no ads or sales on the site, slash TV has been added also for tinkerboard, and nano pi fire 3. It's an Android based emulation setup that doubles as a media centre.

Don't use that. Use 1.0.8 epic or 1.0.7, and it's tinker/tinkerboard
Question
Thanks for the awesome img! I have a question, is it possible to integrate some Media players in this image? for watch movies under RetroPie?

Hi Steve, I'm Roger and this message/reply hass nothing to do with the tinkerboard (sorry everyone, for thread-jacking). It is actually with reference to the Jetson Nano. This is the first post that google found on xda, after i included "xda techtoyti....." in my search terms.
I'm messaging just to say "Hi" because I sent you a message using the "contact me" feature on your website but I check XDA on a far more regular basis, than I check my hotmail account.
I am still awaiting the postman to deliver my nano 4gb. It is 1pm here in the UK and the parcel tracking says that it is out for delivery, with the driver
please feel free to PM me

Yeah I know. Have downloaded it already and looking forward to testing it out
I'm hopeful of an Android port too, which was my reason for reaching out through your website.
I've already flashed my sd card with Nvidia's os and I've downloaded the Android ROM for the switch.
Still waiting for the postman though
Again, sorry for thread-jacking. Can I pm you instead?
2nd edit. Postman just arrived! Yay.
