Already answered your questions by email, a few times. That said, here is a rephrase of my replies:

1) Uninstall won't proceed unless the backup is successful and verified. Please check you don't untick the 'backup app' when you confirm uninstallation and check you are viewing the same app types and you have read access to the backup folder. Check also the backup folder for content.

2) The option is available in app's settings, Applications, Active Tweaks, tick the 'Keeps backups up-to-date'. This will update any app's backup when it is updated. You must first backup the app you want a backup first. Every time the app is updated, the backup will also be updated. IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO BACKUP AN APK VERSION BEFORE IT IS UPDATED BY PLAY STORE, THE OS OR PLAY STORE GIVES NO SIGNS OF AN APP ABOUT TO BE UPDATED.

Thanks for your nice review on Play Store, this problem has nothing to do with the last updates, and I cannot fix a bootloop on your device from a review. Even more so considering I run the app on 6 physical devices and have never experienced a bootloop on those or any previous devices I owned, as mentioned in post #2.

Recent changes applies to the following features, all far away from the boot process:

- app restore compatibility improvements on Marshmallow

- media rescan improvements

- Fix UI stats settings lost

- Fix SMS restore on Marshmallow

Some ROM/Kernels don't support trimming, some simply run it transparently. In any case there's no way to know until it is actually tried. You might get 'not needed' if you try to trim a partition. Or you will get 0Kb trimmed all the time.

By default the 'backup apps' checkbox is checked for all apps you try to uninstall. You can disable that in app's settings, Applications. This is a security mechanism that's enabled by default, which you must manually disable. This checkbox doesn't say 'don't ask again' anyway like some others do. On purpose and by design.

Concerning disabled components, you can restore an apps' component, select the app, tap manage, select reset. You can also make sure your settings (disabled components) are restored upon updating or reinstalling an app. All available under app's settings, Applications, Active Tweaks.

I just upgraded from CM12.1 to CM13 (LG G4) and noticed that I get an empty screen when I try to get a system log. The kernal log seems to work perfectly, but the system logs are just blank. Is this to be expected?

If there is any additional information that you want, please let me know.

Thank you very much.
[Android Apps and Games] teemo:
Try other logging apps. They will probably fail too.

I found that on cm13 you will only be able to read the log as normal user, not as superuser. I'm using SuperSU 2.67. Should be fixed in the kernel by cm. Or as workaround run logcat without su (try in terminal).

Hi [MENTION=253258]3c[/MENTION] can add support for GeekBox? :confused:

Do you need email support request?

Thanks!!

Hello.

Just here making two feature requests.

1) On this app settings page:

View attachment 3653735

Can you add DPI and Font Scale settings like in the Xposed Application Settings app here:

View attachment 3653740

2) For the Link to SD feature, could you make a setting to be able to change where on the SD card to link the files to? I have a secondary Ext2 partition on my SD card which i would prefer to put the linked files. This makes the linking process more likely to succeed because of the ownership and permissions stuff available in EXT2/3/4 FS which FAT doesn't support. I use Link2SD which does this sort of linking to the EXT partition. It seems like since you already have the Link to SD option, you are so close to bring able to do the same thing?

Thanks!

@3c

I switched to CM13 some days ago and latest 3C toolbox has problems to delete system apps, such as email, browser, cLock and so on, under CM12.1 and CM12.1 based ROMs I have no problems with deleting.

regards
[Android Apps and Games] Hurkamurka:
Had almost the same issue (wanted to move an app to system, but the toolbox had no permission to do this). Try this: check app permission in Android settings, Applications, Toolbox Pro, then make sure it has SD/USB storage read/write permission.
[Android Apps and Games] j1gga84:
Hmm, I am on a CM13 based ROM (Resurrection Remix), I think it is unter settings - apps - 3c toolbox pro - permissions - storage (I activated it because it was off)

Will try it after next dirty flash of my ROM when trying to remove some system apps again ;)

regards
[Android Apps and Games] Hurkamurka:
Using RR (CM13 based) too on my OPO. I gave all permissions to the app.

Im having an issue with the CPU manager. I was using it to set the CPU governor and had turned on the setting to apply settings on boot. That way when you restart it loads the settings I've made. I've decided to use a kernel app from Playstore. However even though I have turned off the set on boot setting and it reads off I still continue to get a toast saying "Applied: Set on boot" or something after a restart. Anyway to fix this [MENTION=253258]3c[/MENTION] ? Thank you

Edit: The only way to fix this was to uninstall the app

When protecting an app with an pattern, 3CToolbox gets protected also.

Is there a way to un-protect 3CToolbox and keep other apps protected?

How do I remove the protection of 3CToolbox alltogether? I miss the option in Manage menu.
[Android Apps and Games] thagringo:
[MENTION=253258]3c[/MENTION] : i know im always too quick asking about this stuff but here it goes : tried toolbox pro on android n and it looks like shell is broken again and it is unable to get root access ( probably not your fault).

maybe im doing sth. wrong, have you tried yourself ?

TIA !
[Android Apps and Games] IMTREX:
Same problem here.

I tried to lock an app.

That I can revert, but the main 3C app asks since for the PIN each time I try to access it.

Where this can be switched on and off?
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Didn't have a chance to try it, however getting root access is mainly based on the su binary. The toolbox uses shell PATHs to find where it is located, and sometimes a device happens to have su binary in /system/sbin/su, which does not grant root. Other locations are possible, but if you use N, I suppose you also have latest SuperSU, which locates su in /su folder.

it's worth checking if you find other occurences of the su binary and delete them.

Open app settings, UI, General. Unlock from there.
[Android Apps and Games] thagringo:
Thing is you get the toast message where it says that su permission has been granted to the app and in supersu app 3c toolbox appears as an allowed app.

Im using latest 70rc and yes everything is installed in /su.

TIA !

[Android Apps and Games] IMTREX:
@3c

Thanks for letting me know how to get the lock from the toolbox itself.

I got another question:

I used to create and search protocolls (logcat's) out of the relevant tab. Watching what is going on was possible.

That was on previous phone on Kitkat, so I know how this should look like.

Now I am on another phone with Marshmallow and the logging strean doesn't log, it just stays black.

Anything I could do? What do you make out of it?

Thanks for letting me know.
[Android Apps and Games] RiDEN_1:
Recording interval doesn't change.

In battery monitor AND after buying the toolbox, when I change the recording interval it does not change in fact. The UI tells that it is changed, but the logging still happens once a minute. Also the "one click performance optimization" resets after reboot, so it doesn't apply. I have sent you an email request for support, but I think you blacklisted me for using cracked version previously. Now I have changed, and bought your product. If you haven't banned me, then I apologize for doubling the request here.
[Android Apps and Games] nec947:
Can you make a discount for this great app on playstore?
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Maybe logging is disabled on your Marhsmallow (custom?) device. Log viewer works just fine as long as you have root and it has not been disabled by ROM maker.

I believe I just sent you a test APK with extra options. Let me know how that works. Please note it's work-in-progress as I'm working on improving root features performance dramatically.

Let me know how that works for you. I've tested on a few devices and it's ok. Hopefully your device's OS is not automatically restricting interval (which I've seen one in the past). On Marshmallow, please try to remove the app from any OS optimizations, just in case. I'm using auto-optimization and interval can be set as low as settings allows.

Root features are disabled

Please accept my apology if here is not the right place to ask my question,

I have a rooted device and using your app for tweaking. It's working great most of the time, but this is second time I'm not able to use any rooted features. In some how your app keeps saying you are not using rooted device. It's a little weird.

Since i was using these features all day, I noticed two-three hours after last used i can't use them anymore .

For clarification:

• There is no actual message, The features need root access were disabled.

• From last good known working time, I didn't install/uninstall any app not even modify ROM/kernel/ nothing

• I did reboot my device, but it didn't help

• I didn't uninstall and reinstall this app
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Thanks for the link, very insightful. I'm working on a new method to access all root features and I will not be impacted by any of such issues in the near future. The change is still in test on many devices as it appears to have its own share of issues, but it's going well and I'm testing this with 3C Task Manager and 3C CPU Manager apps. Once it shows to be reliable enough I'll release other apps.

The first consequences of this change is that root features are 10 times faster! Most noticeable in root explorer and task manager where refresh times are divided by 2.

EDIT: If you want to test a preview, please send a support request from app settings, help and support so I sent you a test APK.

That's the right place to ask. Just a question, which app are you using (the toolbox or?) and which SuperSU app are you using?

I've not noticed much issues with accessing root, except in the following instances:

- Upon boot, root is not always granted by SuperSU app, a particular setting in SU app enables it, however it's off by default.

- Upon app update, SuperSU app ask to grant root again, if dismissed or missed, the app no longer have root.

- The same app was installed previously with a different signature (cracked version), SuperSU app will not notify if root is granted or not and root may or not be actually granted.

Either way, please send a support request from app settings, help and support so I can review other settings that could affect root.

Hi [MENTION=253258]3c[/MENTION] ! :p

I sent a support request from my GeekBox. In principle we only need cpu temperature.

It would be possible to measure mA somehow? This would be good for all Android TV boxes, I understand that this may not be possible due to lack of battery. :confused:

Many thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Hello, just replied to your support request, sorry for the delay, I'm quite busy preparing next update.

From the request, there doesn't seem to be any mA sensor, but it might be somewhere new? Concerning temperature, nothing known but same thing.

Searching under /sys folder for files containing 'current' or 'temp' might bring something, just let me know.
[Android Apps and Games] N.Tesla:
Do not worry, you are still my favorite developer. :highfive:

Continuous searching for anything related to consumption, we'll let you know any news.
[Android Apps and Games] dipseeet:
hey 3c.

how can i delete the search list in terminal?
[Android Apps and Games] VlabDev:
great!
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Not at the moment, sorry. I'll add this in my TODO list, just got to find a nice spot to put it.
[Android Apps and Games] MAOQ:
Please answer why 3C Toolbox Pro does not backup applications.? It seems the problem is only on Android(v6.0.1). And I have an Android(v5.1.1), firmware Ditto Note 5 Rom(port). I use already 5 months and no gaps were not. In normal operation the top as I know there is the option to create a roll-call division of spaces" should be off. Unfortunately the opposite 3C Toolbox Pro crooked work. What do I do.?

---------------------------------------------------------------

I apologize in advance if my post Potter.
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Not sure what is your issue, but 3C Toolbox do backups applications if you ask it to. Don't have such 'roll-call division of spaces' option anywhere in my apps.

To receive assistance, please send a support request from app settings, help and support mentioning your issue.
[Android Apps and Games] MAOQ:
This is a problem on the 3C versions (v1.6.12) was and now came the 3C to (v1.7) and all work fine(do a backup). I think the future will be nothing like that. :)
[Android Apps and Games] Hedied4me:
The newest update that hit the playstore recently is giving me problems in the application manager section. When I try enable/disable an event I get the error message"Event failed to enable". I didn't have this problem before the recent update. Can you please link me to the previous version [MENTION=253258]3c[/MENTION]

Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] dipseeet:
nice 2 read. (:

i thought there is already an option but i didn't found it yet. ^^
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
You need to send a support request from app settings, help and support mentioning your issue. I cannot provide links here, even less without knowing which version you're using.

Furthermore it would be much more interesting to fix your issue than revert to an older version which I will not provide support for and you will never benefit from new versions bug fixes and new features.
[Android Apps and Games] nabril15:
I ask a dumb question, perhaps, that answers itself, but I ask it to confirm.

In the startups manager of System Tuner, I have system tuner disabled since I don't need it to run at startup.

However, if I enable FS Trimmer in the app and reboot, will it actually trim anything since I have the application disabed at startup?
[Android Apps and Games] linom:
Hi 3C, it would be nice to have 1) aggressive doze mode like Greenify has , 2) add network speed test (upload+download) and network type details (eg MCC, MNC code, MAC address, SSID etc to Network manager and 3) A slick/updated UI for better look & feel :)
[Android Apps and Games] teemo:
I will have to disagree on 3, if you are thinking about material design or similar. Material may be good for simple apps, where the app make most decisions for you. But to pack the toolbox into material, would be extremely frustrating, at least for me.

I like current interface, it's functional and fairly quick to use with advanced mode and by using shortcuts.
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
The app controls this by itself, you need not to worry about this.

1) It's probably the next thing I'll work on.

2) MAC, SSID are already there (in summary tab). EDIT: MCC/MNC will be added in next update.

3) There's more than 100 screens, many are already compliant to Material design. Some can't be simplified without frustrating most users. Long story short, not sure what I can do here, there are already so many options in UI theme to make the UI yours, icons in 3D or flat material, white/black theme, buttons, etc... Please check UI from a year ago and let me know if it hasn't improved.

I'll make improvements here and there, most likely based on feedback, one screen/tab at a time.

As I understand it, Material has many areas, starting with flat icons, elevation and as few controls as possible. icons, elevation, look'n'feel from Material is already there. Reducing controls would indeed frustrate most users, like it happened when I revamped the one-click controls from system manager (moved to device manager). I'll definitely go in that direction, however I will not remove any advanced controls. Rather splitting some tabs in two where relevant, like the CPU tab, splitting into controls vs monitoring/graphics is an option considering this tab is already highly cluttered with information.

In any case, I'm open to discussing any improvements on any screen/tab.
[Android Apps and Games] linom:
Well, its pretty subjective. But to be specific, and frankly, the UI of file explorer is not intuitive. I only use ES Explorer because of this. I am pretty much okay with the other interface.
[Android Apps and Games] teemo:
Hehe, then we agree. I use root explorer because I want multiple permanent tabs (currently using 4).

I must say though, that I find the explorer useful with folder size calculation and sorting, it's quite handy. For all other system tools, I stick with 3c.
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
Explorer already has multiple tabs, however not "permanent", but it should be fairly easy to add such should it be useful. I suppose each tab remembers its own location between uses?
[Android Apps and Games] teemo:
Correct. I have permanent tabs for /, Internal SD, sdcard1 and dropbox. The last positions are always remembered, but there is a home button that takes you to the initial destination for whatever tab is active.

I guess it's just my habit from Norton commander (yes I'm that old) and Total commander I can't let go of :)

Using favorites might do the job too, though a bit more tedious.
[Android Apps and Games] linom:
Hi 3C, thanks for adding the MCC/MNC. Also some more feature requests

1. File explorer-

a) Please add 'Move to' option for files & folders incase we dont want to copy them to a different location.

b) A quick image preview for all media files. Currently only icons are seen

c) Folder storage analyzer to check on files occupying storage space. OR A file sort with file size details

d) 'Select All' options within a folder. I cant find it if its already there. This is to move/copy/delete large number of files

2) Add Mobile Tower/Cell Info in the Network Manager

3) Speedtest to replace the speedtest app.

Sorry if I am asking for too much. :) Thanks again for the wonderful app.

Call & SMS Backup Bug

Hi 3C,

I am not sure if the app is designed that way or it is a bug, but I cannot see the backup of call logs sms within 'One-click' even after backing them up many times. Hence I am not able to click on restore. Nothing happens. The backups actually exist checking through the explorer. Attached is a screen record of the same. Am I missing something?
[Android Apps and Games] 3c:
1.a) Long press a file, cut, go to destination, tap paste.

1.b) TODO indeed

1.c) SD tab in System Manager, or tap extra, sort by size

1.d) long-press bottom-left button, same as in apps manager to select multiple apps/backups

2) TODO

3) This requires a dedicated server to serve large files and allow uploads, which I don't have. The only server I have is for the online help and it's not very fast, so I'm not sure it will do.

Are you using Android M? Have you checked app's permissions? Or Android L and backup is on external SD? If so have you granted app write access to external storage?

In any case, such issue is best dealt with a support request which provides all of the above information.
[Android Apps and Games] linom:
Stupid of me for 1.a . Did not realize that.

I am on CM13. I will raise a support request after checking out everything once more

Is the color settings for this removed?

View attachment 3750699

It looks like it's using white theme while in dark theme. Have you exited the app after turning it to dark mode? If not, that's likely the problem.

Hi, after messing with system settings I can no longer access my memory card or primary device memory. All I'm seeing is 0 space available in all storages. Some apps have stopped working too. Please help. I have a rooted T-Mobile Galaxy S5
[Android Apps and Games] teemo:
Not the problem.

To replicate:

1. Clear data

2. Start app

3. Go to Settings - All app settings - UI - Theme: Disable "Light theme"

4. Go to Monitor - Analyzer - Choose a recording

Pure black would be awesome as background. Or Black and DarkGrey if there must be alternating colors.

thanks
