Little edited my post, coming to the topic, ultimately you need the apk to "officially" get the obb and that requires the licence, so if you obtain the obb and modify it that way it still remains a warez..... I'm not fully clear and can surely be wrong on this though
[General Questions and Answers] Zoya-1:
Well, at any rate, think I figured it out, but as this seems to be a grey area at the moment, I'll keep it to myself until we get a clarification. Point is, the Android licencing is intact, it just won't redownload the obb file after I mod it.

It's the note 4 forum where you'll get the answer and not here, but before that learn to not to use the word "BEST" here in XDA, one thing may be "best" for you but saying that offends the devs of other similar products so don't !! Coming to your question well the way you'll know what's "best" for you is :

1. Check all the kernel threads and see what and what they offer

2. See what the users are saying about those kernels

3. After that If you still keep having questions then ask that in the kernel threads or to the users of those kernels

[MENTION=5691352]Droidriven[/MENTION] [MENTION=4259944]plegdroid[/MENTION] does this still falls under the warez category ?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I didn't say using ROMs caused lag, I said doing a lot of modding on a device(as in not only using a ROM but also doing this and that mod on top of the ROM) tends to cause lag because there is more modification than the device was intended to handle, especially on older devices and low end devices.

Anything that can be used as warez is considered warez, whether you're using it like that or not.

[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I'm not entirely sure, but my understanding is he has legitimately paid for the game initially but is now modifying the .obb file that is referenced for his license check so that it doesn't download the updated .obb for whatever reason. I would say that even though you may own the game legally, modifying anything that checks for license is STILL bypassing that check, this is doing the same thing that warez does. It isn't so much of an issue of whether you actually own the license or not, its an issue of you tampering with the licensing parts of software that is used to verify license, which is a no-no from any direction you want to look at it from.

So I am running android 5.1 on a Samsung Galaxy S6, I have Xposed installed.

THIS ISSUE IS NOT A LOG IN ISSUE, I CAN LOG IN JUST FINE AND NOW HOW TO SOLVE THAT.

-The issue- I have been using Xposed with absolutely zero problems until I tried to use snapchat after installing xposed. I will link a log of snapchat. Anyway I had tried to use snapchat and a lot of things would fail to submit or load. Stories would load fine, but everything else was a hit or miss, mostly a miss. So problem solving came into play, I logged snapchat, there was TONS OF ERRORS OVER AND OVER. (No I was not using snapprefs.) I observed the errors and couldnr find any help. I then uninstalled Xposed accepting defeat and started receiving snaps again..? I started a logcat with absolutely zero issues. I then was hopeful and installed xposed and got the following log (the same as the first time)

Hello everyone..

I have a TWRP RECOVERY.IMG for my Chinese developed tablet (A33 processor) running 4.4.2 kitkat.. So I flashed it using Rashr app from Google play.. My tablet is rooted with supersu,. But when I flashed , then boot to recovery.. It don't boot at recovery but instead it just like rebooted.. So i try again to boot to recovery mode in settings , it boots to recovery mode but my recovery was still on stock..

I dont know if the APP IS NOT working with my tab so I tested the FLASHIFY on playstore , but flashify dont works with my tab..

Should I flash it manually using terminal emulator ?

Also i found in my device that the partition of boot,recovery, etc is not found in

/dev/block/platform

But instead in

/dev/block/by-name <<<only

Also the folder inside the /dev/block/platform/sunxi-mmc.0

is /by-num , mmcblk0 , mmcblk0p1

. It might help if im going to flash the recovery.img through adb.. Or someone with same problem??
[General Questions and Answers] xCasper:
I'll try to keep it simple, so I don't confuse myself more than I already am.

I was gonna make a thread, but this one is noob friendly, so why not knock out my questions here.

Okay, I have two, but they're pretty much the same topic; back when I had an S3 (rooted, custom rom) I would notice when file browsing there were two identical locations: storage "0" and "legacy" and if I recall correctly, if you deleted something out of one, it was deleted from the other, now I've never understood why android does this, maybe so people can recover temp deleted files, but I used to think the dupe folder itself took up twice as much space, now I know that isn't the case, but I could still use an explanation, and also for my second question; now that I've upgraded to an LG G4, I've noticed that there is an emulated directory (which can't be browsed unless directly accessed (and I don't know how else to explain that part; I can't navigate to this folder, but if I select "sdcard" for example, it takes me to this location.)) and then there's root/storage which navigates to my external SD, and the emulated folder I mentioned before which "supposedly" contains the "0" directory that can't be navigated to (because from my view it seems to be a shortcut).

So, basically, there's root/storage, which contains the external and the emulated folder that is empty when accessed, there's /root/sdcard which supposedly contains the directories to my external and the emulated folder, there's root/storage/emulated which is empty, then there's root/storage/emulated/0/ which can't be navigated to, but still exists and seems to also be my internal, or at least would be that copy or "legacy" I mentioned before, and then there's /sdcard/ which is either a shortcut or something and what I'm looking for is a simple explanation as to why android makes file management seem so difficult (or maybe it's just me thinking too damn hard).
[General Questions and Answers] Manuel15:
The real internal memory path is /storage/emulated/0, the "legacy" is just a link to the other one, so apps searching in "legacy" are automatically redirected to "0"

The weird thing is when you go on /storage/emulated you can't see the folder "0", which is into emulated
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
It has the different partitions labeled and accessed/accessible different ways because as android grew the partition "structure" that devices use had to grow along with it, the partition structure that is confusing you exists because of the different ways apps access sdcard and because of the different partitions they were designed to access.
[General Questions and Answers] plegdroid:
Morning Matey. ?☕ storage 0 & legacy are mount point locations, for user, and multi user.

Think as front door/side door to the same location but the side door only allows access to the hall way where your friend has left his/her belongings. Front door will allow access to the whole house and valuables.

The whole house is your stored data, the hallway is the part of the data storage that you've let a friend as a added guest/user download some pictures to,as an example.

---------- Post added at 09:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:41 AM ----------

That may depend on the model number or carrier, there are many models numbers for note 2 and S4, they don't all have the same development, some have things the others don't. Then again, what is available for one model of note 2 can be relatively easily ported to another model, same for the S4, but I'll warn you that most of the models for US carriers have locked bootloader if they have 4.3 or higher, they can be rooted but they can't use custom recovery or custom ROMs.

Give some suggestions of which model number and carriers you're considering and you may get a more specific answer.

Hiya got a reply quoting "It depends on what you are changing in the .obb file.

You are free to modify any bit of code or file so long as what you distribute in the end doesn't violate any laws, copy writes, or results in would-be paid materials or features being active or available for free.

Make sense? So if you are trying to modify something to make it free or it breaks the law, then yes, it's Warez :)"

So its all down to what actually is being edited in the file, if its to add game play as I need a bigger gun to kill xyz, and you don't need to pay extra for the bigger gun (insert own options here) thats ok, if its to circumvent anything that you would need to pay for and get for free, including the gun, it would be classed as warez.☕?

I still think that the user that posted may still not be in the clear considering what you posted. It depends if what he wants to modify is so the part that checks license or version, if it checks license before downloading the new .obb he wants to block from downloading then changing that to block the .obb would be using warez. If what he wants to modify checks version before downloading the new .obb then he would be in the clear considering what you posted.

What is the easiest way to add the multi-users feature on a Samsung Galaxy S4 (SGH-M1919V) running Lollipop (5.0.1)?

I was told I could edit the build.prop but I just can't seem to find a way to root my phone. Kingo root, towel root, framaroot, nothing works... And many methods found on the XDA forums won't support a Galaxy S4 under lollipop.

I've tried installing Cyanogenmod but for some reason my phone won't boot in recovery mode, so that's not working either.

And from what I understand xposed framework will lead to bootloops on my device, so I can't use the xposed multi-users module.

Oh, and I only have a macbook, so I can't try anything that requires Windows.

Is there a simple method I'm overlooking here?
