Hey SkywalkerZ, great tool at all :)

What is "Knox Cleaning"?

Apps inside Knox, deleting Knox as itself?

Is Knox triggered to 0x1 after being rooted ?

Does "Private Mode" still work after all ?

How I can check, that the deleted Apps are

really

deleted, how I can open the new built md5.file ?

THX :good:

Sry, by the description "App", I thought, this would be an App for the fone, not for Windows ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Devries:
I suggest do not delete the DocumentsUI...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Tom-Helge:
Why?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
ist it related to google drive ?

You dont need knox cleaning right now as first of all, all roms come with knox removed

2nd When u flash a recovery, or even root, knox will be triggered

3rd I would keep this question un answered as i dont know if it works because i dont have this device

4th Umm the built file is a .zip and not .md5 so all u need to do is unzip and check yourself?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SavanTorian:
thx for your reply :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Devries:
No...My China Mobile version Note 4 do not include gapps but exist documentsui.apk , when you select picture,video etc. in some apps, it need to be called.

What is knox-cleaning

Hello, I want to try this out, but before I do that I would like to know what that knox-cleaning means .-.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xda23:
I can use this on my tmobile note 4 right? Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Droideatsappleforlunch:
You all bought the wrong phone if you want to debloat it.

Nexus 6 should fit you more :) :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xda23:
Lol
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
Yes you can

Now you will obviously have some carrier apps in it so Do PM the names and ill add the carrier apps in the debloater
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xda23:
Cool. Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Jostian:
Only problem I have is that once I pick up the debloated zip in Build folder its only 578kb in size???
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
really? :o

i had tested it and worked fine !
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Tom-Helge:
I hope you are updating the app to be able to remove alot more apps and stuffs?

There are actually tons of apps that you can remove from both 'system/app' and 'system/priv-app' that doesn't affect anything with the ROM for the Snapdragon version.

Not only that, but you should also make it possible to remove alot of different language files other than English. I did remove alot of language files in different folders before i did build a new package in the app.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Jostian:
Tried again but again the Build file is 577kbs... I put the 1.2 gig zip ROM into the Original folder and then go through the debloat procedure but still there is a problem, see screen grab, any ideas? thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
Yes ..i am working on it :)

Its all going to come soon
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
maybe winrar might be causing conflicts with 7zip ..not so sure ..ill have to look at it but i tested like 10 times before releasing it.

No one else till now has this issue as well
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Jostian:
yes not sure but the small zip file has all the ROM files (system app files etc.) but they are all 0kbs so it could be a zip conflict as you say.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] pbedard:
So only 910f ??
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
i suppose u are asking for american version?

the device is mostly the same ( tell me if i am wrong) and the firmware will be same too

So u can try it..should work

the only thing is it has no carrier apps in database to debloat..like tmobile or atnt crappy apps ...unless users can give me list of them

How long does extracting the original *.zip file usually take? I've been waiting for 40 minutes now, and there's no end in sight.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] iamolu:
doesn't take 40min, you might want to start over.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
max 10 mins..for me 2-3 mins

as the fellow member said..try to restart.

If u have winrar or winzip..that might be causing errors as well(not sure)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Jostian:
Worked really brilliantly for me, 10 minutes give or take
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] iom_jack:
yaykkkssss. so it means it can trigger knox!!!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] xda23:
Great work bud I can't wait for v3-4. Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
Installing recovery or rooting itself triggers knox

This tool just extracts the rom contents and debloates whatever the user wants to remove and then repacks it....ntn else is done....

And ofc later on u need a recovery to flash the zip (therefore knox triggered )
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] flywithme:
Very useful tool!

Thank you!
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] edwardob:
where to get zip to debloat?

I can only download.. . tar from sammobile... where do you get zip.... or can you convert to zip and then back to . tar after debloating
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ManDone.vRs:
For me is not working ,tested with 3 firmware , and nothing ... followed the steps ... :o
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Dijkertje:
Yeah I want to know this aswell :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
No you cant,

Only cooked roms can be debloated

You guys can try rickys rom kitchen to make a rom from tar.md5 (for windows) and then debloat using this

what isnt working?
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ManDone.vRs:
i puted the firwmare in Original folder , i choosed apps to debloat , and after that i flashed the file founded in BUild folder ... after flashed is the same app and config ...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
as i said.

you cant put the firmware in it

You need to put a rom zip (a cooked rom that can be flashed via recovery and NOT ODIN)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] ManDone.vRs:
well , i can use root explorer to deblot my ROM :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] rayone:
Should the knox section also remove "Bridge.apk/odex", "SPDClient" and "UniversalMDMClient"?

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:05 PM ----------

Same result... just do a factory reset afterwards.
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
thanks

i shall add them ASAP
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] cepone:
Hi, sorry for the maybe stupid question but let's say i wanted to debloat the original rom, how would i get the original rom for the note? Or would i have to do a nandroid backup of the rom and then debloat that and flash it back in?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
if you are downloading an official firmware than you need to make it into a flashable rom

You can do this by using may rom kitchens around and then debloat using this tool
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] pigbait:
Will it (in time) be possible to debloate a stock firmware and flash it via odin with out braking Knox? Im not asking for it im just interested if it would be possible.

thanks for your time :)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
if flashing stock firmware via odin doesnt trigger knox then yes it i s possible

extracting tar.md5 to delete knox can be done easily or atleast i have seen kitchens do it..

Just that i am not confident if i can make tool which will convert the extracted tar.md5 back to tar.md5 nor do i want to release something not tested by me(if something goes wrong while building the .tar.md5 file, you can screw up your phone and the partitions)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Dijkertje:
Isn't it possible to remove the *.md5 suffix so it becomes a *.tar, so the tar file can be extracted.

If I do that, I see about the same files that are .i.e. in X-Note/Dr.Ketans .zip files.

But I am hesitant to try, cause I don't want to brick my Note..... :D

It probably isn't possible, but asking doesn't hurt.

Thanks for your information, keep up you hard work its well appreciated.

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
Guys,

Till now i did a few work on the UI of the batch, mostly change some colors etc

Added a logging system which will log everything you debloat

i am right now working on something pretty sick

i got it working half way, now if everything works according to plan..its the best feature yet ;)

it will give this tool a whole lot more meaning ;)
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
Update.

Not sure how many people use this tool but it seems to help the community( i guess) and so i decided to take this tool a lil further.

If you are new to this tool or don't know or already know (take this as a recap), this tools intention was to debloat stock odexed/deodexed and cooked roms. Off course you need windows for this tool (Linux support to come when i am free , mostly June 2015 after exams are over ).

This tool was also created as an alternative to the very good 'aroma installer' through which most of my 'flashable' debloaters used to work, is not working on the note 4 (dead project/not updated for looong) and i dont have the skill to fix it (although i try going through the code).

Now there is a problem right? who wants to sit and debloat roms on windows (who has the time) unless you want to save some HD space

The scripts out there don't let you choose what you want to remove like aroma did. Sure you could edit the code yourself to suit your needs but some are either lazy, very busy or are not into editing code.

Others would say titanium backup. Yes you have the choice, one of the best root apps out there but can that run on windows?? huh? LOL

Aroma is dead which means SkywalkerZ and other devs, no more flashble debloater???? NOOOOOO...

Not anymore mates, cause this tool has done it, it can now generate its own flashable debloat files... YEEEEESSSS!!!! (wooohoooo)

Now you can choose what apps you want to debloat, yes you will need windows for this but there is a new option that will generate bash scripts according to what you need, club them together and make a zip to flash. Best part, all the Note 4 variants can be supported (YAY)

But i need you help

I would like users to post device mounts for /system and /data for all the variants here

eg -

mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system -system mount or partition

mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /data -data mount or partition

All devs can use the scripts to remove junk apks from their roms as well !! (Send me a PM)

The tool isn't over, i have to write a lot more code before i can release

But stay tuned for more

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] SkywalkerZ:
As requested on the previous page

Could people pot their respective device mounts?

Easy method is by downloading android terminal emulator from the market

Type 'su' (without ' ', and grant root permission)

Type 'mount' (without ' ' )

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] TonyM77:
Nothing to debloat there since is doesnt have any features or so. Thought about the nexus, then again, i already have a spare ski for wintersport...
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Sterkriger:
I know this might be the wrong thread to ask but since my phone is a Samsung and doesn't have a dedicated thread I must ask here. I could use this with other devices or just the Note? Mine is a Galaxy A5 (SM-500M).
[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] aukhan:
I salute you for making this tool it's a really helpful tool.

I not only use for debloating but also unpacking the rom and safely adding mods and repacking it.i had an issue when I did it with Lollipop and I bricked my device but recovered. I would like to know if you could add lollipop support.

Hi op, thanks for this tool. It seems to be what i want. I don't want to root and remove knox because I use it.

But I want to remove the other samsung bloatwarez.... which means I need to edit Odin files.

Hopefully you will be able to support editing of Odin files soon.

Hi Op, I downloaded N910FXXU1ANK4_N910FBTU1ANK2_BTU Rom, changed the extension to .zip, and debloated it... it is trying to rebuild now.... then I will try to rename it back....

I hope this works

The thing is i just don't have the time to do anything in this time of the year. Plus i myself know just a little about the new file system introduced in LP.

There are tools on XDA that will help you unpack lollipop roms, then you could debloat them with this tool. It will work :)

[Galaxy Note 4 Android Development (Snapdragon)] Zeuszoos:
Hi,

Okay, this is what I don't get. It seems to be saying to use this utility on a Windows PC, put the OEM ROM file in it and let it DeBloat the ROM, then "Build" it.

Questions:

1) It talks about using a ROM that's a Zip. The one I downloaded is a Zip, but the only thing in it is the ROM as a "tar.md5" file. Is that still the right one, if I just leave it Zipped up?

2) What do you do with the Zip file after that? Copy it onto the phone and do an "Install Zip" from within Recovery? If so, can it be done from Internal Storage?

3) Since I had already installed this ROM (MM 6.0.1), won't it just end up with the Bloatware on the phone anyway? Or do I perform a Factory Reset first or something?

Xtra Question: I am already Rooted too, on the phone (N910T) with the ROM (MM 6.0.1) and I was wondering if there's some way to DeBloat the phone, from the phone. I usually use my favorite app for doing it with no problems.

However, for some strange reason on only this phone, when I go to Uninstall Bloatware, even basic stuff like Amazon, Flipboard, Facebook, etc., it will either:

A) Fail to Uninstall.

Or...

B) Uninstall and then immediately (don't even get to count to 3) Reinstall itself.

What is going on with that??? <lol>

I please humbly request any help you can give me and thank you for your time!

[G3 Android Development] Kickoff:
Hi there,

I have been struggling for long time with decompiling and resompiling LGsettings.apk for my Android L theme. Here is the solution:

LGSettings.apk

Look for /res/layout/dialog_title_secondlines.xml. In the 4. line change

@*com.lge.internal:style/DialogWindowTitle.Holo.Light

to

"@com.lge:style/DialogWindowTitle.Holo.Light"

Then look for /res/xml/preference_widget_checkbox.xml. In the second line change:

"@*com.lge.internal:style/Widget.Holo.Light.CompoundButton.CheckBox'

to

"@com.lge:style/Widget.Holo.Light.CompoundButton.CheckBox"

Source

Check res/values/arrays.xml if you an find "<" here. If yes replace all with "<". Save and close, try to recompile.

Source.

LGEasySettings.apk

Do the same changes. In this case I did not have "<"-s in the arrays.xml.

Update: unfortunately the Settings app crashes after successful recompiling.

Hit the thanks button if it helped.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Turgenev:
Accidentally crossposted to wrong Moto help forum. Reposting here.

Hello:

I am a US resident with the Moto X 2014 Pure edition, using on T-Mobile with the $80/mo "unlimited voice, text, LTE and unlimited web data for internstional." Domestic service has been excellent. I am currently in Reykjavik on vacation. Scenario and investigation follows.

1. Upon touchdon, got txt advisng me of voice and text support. Those work fine.

2. I am able to register with local carriers NOVA.IS or Vodafone (NOVA is default).

3. Data is NOT available. While i show that it registers with the carrier and network type of HSPA, under Status i show Service State of Voice/Data "in service" but Mobile Network State is "Disconnected."

Worked with T-M several times so far. We have checked:

1. Under "Mobile Networks," Data Enabled and Data Roaming are both checked.

2. Under same menu, Access Point Name is set to T-Mobile US LTE (fast.t-mobile.com) and is set up correctly.

3. On dialer, dialed #766# to re-register data/voice for internatinal service.

4. T-M account is set up correctly, their network engineers verify that both T-M and NOVA should respect my unlocked mobile phone.

Also tested:

1. Another traveler has same T-M plan ascme. Swapped SIM cards. His card in my phone had same effect: Voice, text but no data. My SIM in his iPhone 6 had full local 3G service.

2. A friend also traveling on same plan (Paris) did not have data either on her unlocked iPhone 4s. Again, T-M swears no difficulty with unlocked phones.

Bottom line is to wipe the phone. Getting ready for that, but it will cripple me for a day or two.

Does anyone have suggestions or tips to try before i wipe? Please answer soon, I'll have to commit wipe in 6 hours for timing!
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chrisrozon:
Wouldn't you need the apn of the local carrier, not T-Mobile? That's what I had to set up when I was travelling with a tmo sim.

Unless you NEED data for business I would just enjoy my holiday and use wifi when needed....

I don't see why wiping would help. Different APN settings is what I am thinking. Does Apple use an APN? What are the settings on your friends?
[Moto 360] forexmaker:
I searched and searched, and I still cannot find the proper command to schedule a meeting into my calendar.

According to the online manual of the moto360, it can:

Voi ce commands

Just say “Ok Google,” or touch anywhere on the watch screen

to speak to Google™. You’ll see a white screen with a red

icon.

Schedule a meeting, send a text, or take a note. Get answers to

questions, like “What’s my next appointment?”, “How do I

navigate home?”, or even the really important ones, like

“Where are nearby coffee places?”.

When you activate voice commands your watch shows a list of

suggested phrases, which you can also touch to activate.

Here are some of the types of commands you can use:

• “Call [name].”

• “Call [name’s] mobile.”

• “How do I get to the Museum of Modern Art?”

• “Show me the route to the London Science Museum.”

• “Navigate to the Grand Canyon.”

• “Biking directions to Golden Gate Park.”

• “Send a text to [name] saying I’ll see you in 30 minutes.”

•“Email [name] subject I’m coming to town soon.”

• “Settings” (to open the watch Settings menu).

• “Note to self, eat more apples.”

• “Remind me to take out the trash when I get home.”

• “Remember to go for a run at 7 am.”

So what is the command? I hope someone knows, as I hate setting reminder and not on my calendars.

thanks
