Obviously too many technical errors in the OP. This thread only misleads users with no or little knowledge. Next time you better research a bit more before posting anything. Additionally there are dozens of CORRECT tuts all over xda to solve that kind of problems.

So , when asked what are some useful apps for android often times a lot of the answers that would come back are fairly similar, because the apps have been proven useful. I’ve been looking at many useful apps and below is a small list of what I’ve tried.

-	Adaway

-	SetCPU

-	Terminal Emulator

-	Mobile odin

-	Twrp (I know not an app)

-	TiBu

-	SD Maid

-	RAM Manager

I haven’t been using SD maid and RAM manager long, not sure if its really that great.

Then I started to run into these “combo” apps.

-	Andromizer Pro

o	App delete restore: similar to TiBu

o	CPU setting: SetCPU

o	RAM Setting: RAM Manager

o	3G/4G network optimizer: Similar to 3g/4g optimizer app I’ve seen

o	Wifi scan interval setting

o	LCD density setting

o	IMEI backup: I don’t know if this works

o	Etc.

-	Rom Toolbox Pro

o	Rom managent: Similar to Rom manager, mobile odin, twrp/cwm for the rom?

o	App manager: Similar to TiBu

o	Root explorer: Similar to RE

o	Scripter/TE: Similar to Terminal Emulator

o	Ad blocker: similar to adaway

o	SetCPU: similar to setCPU

o	Etc.

-	System Tuner Pro

o	Backup/restore app similar to TiBu

o	TE: similar to Terminal Emulator

o	CPU manager: similar to SetCPU

o	CPU memory control similar to RAM manager?

o	Etc.

So here are my questions:

1)	Are these combo apps recommended?

2)	How come I rarely hear about these apps, but instead the individual apps listed in the beginning of this post are mentioned? Are these not as great?

3)	These combo apps seems like a great deal, they seem to include all the individual app’s feature. So are they useful? Reliable? Should I buy these combo apps instead of the single apps?

4)	Even in these combo apps there are overlaps, is one more reliable/stable than the other? Preferred over another?

Being still a noob, some individual android tweaking apps are overwhelming let alone these combo apps.

These combo apps almost seem too good to be true. I know that I tried to change my boot animation with Rom toolbox pro but didn’t work. I’m not sure if andromizer’s IMEI backup works.

Thanks!

I haven't a concrete answer on this, so i'll ask.

Q. Can our HTC Sensations once on a JellyBean ROM be downgraded to an ICS ROM? if so how?
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
if you have 3.32fw or 3.33fw version so any ics or jelly bean rom will work

just flash from recovery

always do a nandroid backup first
[HTC Sensation] badai:
it's not that simple. you'll get boot loop. maybe need to use blank sd card. or just use JB. what's wrong with JB anyway?
[HTC Sensation] MS Gray Man:
Since there is no information given about the specific phone in question it is hard to answer the question...

But yes you can move between JB and ICS...

I do so regularly... But since nothing about the specific phone is provided-- can't realy say if you can or not.

Re: Downgrade JB -&gt; ICS

Bootloop ??? :eek:

And blank sd card for what ??? :what:

Mate ics and jelly beans run on same firmware . . 3.3x for HTC sensation

So u don't require to do somethin special for downgrading jelly to ics

If u want to downgrade ics or jelly beans to gingerbread . . Then u have to downgrade firmware first then Rom . .

[HTC 7 Pro] Nerdenator:
Good day.

I have an HTC Arrive on Sprint (CDMA, of course) that I'm trying to update to WP7.8. Specifically, I'm trying to use the HTC Arrive 7.8 Sianto Edition AL ROM.

I used this guide to downgrade the SPL to v.1.25... and the MID number is correct.. I then open up the downloaded ROM folder, and click on ROMUpdateUtility. It skips most of the steps that the user guide for the DFT, but I suppose I could attribute that to it being in the ROM folder itself and selection of the ROM being unnecessary.

Whenever I execute the ROMUpdateUtility file, after I have set the phone into bootloader mode (volume down + power button), it skips right to the flashing process. However, it then sits at 0% for a few minutes and exits with error code 262, which, according to documentation:

The phone itself still works; it's not a brick. What exactly is going on here? How do I flash it correctly? If this is in the wrong section, just let me know.
[HTC 7 Pro] x_orange90_x:
Hello. I just recently flashed my Arrive to Wp7.8 with no problems. I chose the LEAD rom though. May I ask why you want the Sianto Edition? I have seen in the thread for that rom that a few people are having issues installing it. I flashed the LEAD rom with no issues and it is great.

You said that you did downgrade your SPL, did you also install both RSPL and HSPL? I don't know if it makes any difference, but as soon as the HSPL installed and the phone rebooted into the boot loader, I began the installation of the new rom. When you attempt to flash it are you seeing "Cotulla" on you phones boot loader? Also be sure that the bottom portion says USB and not Serial. If it says Serial, unplug the phone and plug it back in, it should then turn to USB and you can proceed to flashing.

Hope this helps ;)

Edit - also, are you running the RUU as Admin? You must Run As Administrator when flashing. Right click the EXE and Run As Administrator
[HTC 7 Pro] Nerdenator:
Yeah, some idiot (who shall remain nameless because my ego is fragile) didn't do HSPL after RSPL. Installed fine after that.

Sorry to bother you guys :silly:

I just got a Samsung Galaxy Player 4.2 for Christmas, and it's a lot better than my iPod Touch. I've pretty much figured out how everything works, and I've done research on rooting before. I would like to root my device, but there doesn't seem to be clear instructions anywhere. I understand all the risks (I had a jailbroken ipod touch, so I'm fine with the risks that rooting carries).

Can anyone provide me with instructions on how to root my device? I've heard of software like SuperOneClick and Odin, but I'm not sure if any of them work for my device.

[HTC One S] AKToronto:
You can change your boot animation on any hboot, bc its located in the system partition. You just need root. You only need a lower hboot to change the bootsplash (ie the non animated logo before the animation).

The boot animation files depend on the ROM you are using.I think for viper its /system/customize/resources/bootanimation.zip

Just replace that file with the .zip of the bootanimation of your choice (also make sure to fix the file permissions to what they were in the original file).

RomToolbox on the PlayStore has a good BootAnimation feature (as well as many other features, a download I would recomend for any root user) and can often find the Boot animation file for you and has a lot of additional bootanimations too. Its a good tool to switch boot animations automatically (and can back up your current boot animation too)

Hey guys,

I came across this in teh portal and am not sure if it actually works on my prime (Stock rooted OTA JB). I would love to see how it fares for the rest of you. Here is the information from the OP. All credit to OP lambgx02 and Ryuinferno.

Instructions: FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE SECOND QUOTED POST IF YOU CANNOT FLASH FILES FROM RECOVERY OR ARE ON STOCK FIRMWARE

Here is the OP:

Here is another informational post from TODAY with installation instructions that worked for me (unlike the APK in the OP).

Personally, it installs for me, but I'm unable to get the init.d stuff to install (no support for this on Asus' stock rom). When running the terminal command line to monitor it, I get total values of 3000-4000. I'm not actually sure if it made a difference in my TFP performance.

What are your guys' experience?
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] justcookiesncream:
Running aw1.5, I don't seem to find any difference in performance whilst the app is running it seems to drain battery life regardless of the screen being off or on, causes my prime to heat up overnight, causing 20-30% drainage
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] sorceror171:
There's a simpler way to get the effects of the application. Bring up a terminal, and do something like:

cd /dev

mv random random.bak

ln -s urandom random

This will have the same effect - apps trying to read from /dev/random will get data from /dev/urandom instead - but it doesn't require any extra CPU time or kernel mods or anything. It does require root, but so does the original app.

Note 1: You may have to do this again if you reboot, or else add the above commands to a startup script. I'm not sure how the /dev directory is typically managed on Android.

Note 2: This (or the Seeder app) will degrade network security somewhat. Things like SSL depend on high-quality, unpredictable random numbers. The /dev/random interface guarantees these, but can be slow. The /dev/urandom interface doesn't guarantee cryptographically secure random numbers. If you do this, it's probably best not to use your table for, say, banking transactions, shopping, or other operations where you'd be in real trouble if people were snooping on your network connections.

That said, the odds of a cryptographic hack are, so far as I can see, fairly low. In general, attacks on Android would tend to be malicious trojan apps or such. But you should be aware of the risk.

I don't know yet if this change makes a real difference. I did it on my original Droid, but haven't evaluated it for long enough to be sure of anything. My TPrime isn't rooted (yet) so I can't implement it there.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] seeknom:
