Can you explain what it is you are trying to do?

What i did is install the .apk file with adbfire (im on mac) and then Sky Go shows in the applications list. I just launch the app and then once logged in it works fine.

You need to ensure you are using v4.1.3 of Sky Go else it wont work
[Fire TV General] Ronaldo7:
Im doing the same as you. I have the latest skygo app. I just get the error message about miracast. Are you running the latest Fire TV software with miracast? (Im not using miracast, but the app is coming up with this error presumably because the Fire TV has this functionality)

The old skygo app didnt let you log in as it said the device was not compatible. The new app lets me log in, but wont let me play streams
[Fire TV General] skanker:
How are you guys hiding your root as I get the error Sky Go is not supported on rooted android devices?
[Fire TV General] Ronaldo7:
Finally got it working by resetting my Fire TV - strange problem! Thanks trenty12

I don't have root so don't need to hide it
[Fire TV General] Mrskint:
The NOWTV app also works with a USB mouse connected :)

I used the same method for installing kodi to get the app to show in my recent list and changed the ikono icon to that of NOWTV's :)

Nice to get skys channels on the fire tv :)
[Fire TV General] hersheycookie:
Any idea how to get this to work on a rooted AFTV without using Hide my Root? I haven't tried it but with Hide my Root I think the only way to get it to work is uninstall the SU App and then reinstall when you are finished with Sky Go. That feels a bit risky to me and also is really a root removal rather than cloak...
[Fire TV General] Hill16:
Might just be worth un-rooting my second Fire TV to get Sky Sports and Movies in the spare room then
[Fire TV General] skanker:
I just unrooted mine to get it working, didn't really ever take advantage of the root anyway. It is now working great on both the Fire TV and Fire Stick.
[Fire TV General] fergie_uk:
Can you share the APK?

[Fire TV General] skanker:
How did you change the icon? I can get the app in the recents but cannot change the icon,
[Fire TV General] Mrskint:
I'm on a Mac, so what I did was right click on the adbfire app and go into it's contents, navigated to the kodi icons directory and replaced the icons with the NOWTV icons.

Opened up adbfire and selected to replace the ikono icons with NOWTV's/kodi's.

Hope that helps :)
[Fire TV General] skanker:
Thank-you, I will give this ago.

How did you extract the NOW TV icon? Was this from the APK?
[Fire TV General] Mrskint:
I just grabbed it from google images and resized it to match the sizes of the kodi icons.

Hi there guys and gals,

I just rooted my s5 running NK2 by Odining down to NCG, installing towel root and then Odining back up to NK2. I downloaded root checker which says I am rooted, I have downloaded es file Explorer and been able to write to SD, and I've downloaded TI backup and deleted all the Verizon bloatware on my stock samsung rom, but when I tried to install busybox, I get an error that reads "I am unable to verify if certain utilities this application needs to function are present and functioning on your device. This could be the result of a device being misrooted or a supersu error. Please try again".

I've tried rebooting the device,

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling busybox and haven't gotten any improvements.

Please let me know if you can help!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slekkas:
Hi,

Just got my new Nexus 6 64GB. Rooted and I transferred my titanium backup files from my Galaxy Note 3. Everything went fine. 3 hour later all my apps are up and running and I'm peachy.

After that I was doing some reading a I stumbled upon the tutorial on how to disable encryption. I gave it a go and upon restart it asked me for my pin number. I enter the pin and then I get the message saying that the phone has to be reset. I hit reset and after the procedure finished phone rebooted and all my files where completely wiped clean. In all my previous phones I could do a reset and keep all my downloaded and backed up files. Is there a way to do this too with the nexus or every time I screw something up I will loose everything?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Stock recovery always resets /sdcard too. Custom recovery only /data and /cache, etc.

However, ALL your data is on an encrypted file system so the only way to decrypt is by reformatting the places that contain ALL the data
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slekkas:
Does this apply even if I disabled the encryption?

I love the phone but this is an issue for me. Please give me your opinion on which is the best way to go. I was thinking to not install a custom recovery so I can be able to do the OTA updates even thought I never owned a phone that I didn't root and install custom recovery and ROM from day one (Only have used Samsung Note Phones all these years). Is there a ROM that is based on the Original with encryption disabled and has some good tweaks and will be updated as soon as there is an update? Thanks for your help.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
All phones that have "internal storage" their stock recovery wipes "sdcard" when you factory reset.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vikramjatt11:
The ROMs have nothing to do with encryption. When you want to turn encryption off, all your data will be reset, there is no way around it.

However, once you have disabled encryption, then you can stay on a stock rooted ROM, or go to any ROM you like, your internal files will not be touched (data will be deleted though). If you were to stay on the stock rooted ROM, and then accept an OTA update, your phone will automatically encrypt on first boot afterwards. Most ROMs update within a day (if not hours) after the OTA update, so best bet is to flash than to accept OTA if you want to stay unencrypted.

When you wipe your phone in recovery yo flash a different ROM, you do a custom wipe, where you uncheck "internal storage", so your files/pictures/etc don't get deleted.

The cool thing about the N6 is the restore option. If you were to completely wipe right now and go to a different ROM, on first boot, upon logging in you will be asked if you want to restore a backup (if you have enabled backup apps, data, WiFi passwords for your google account). If you select yes, all your apps will automatically be downloaded from the play store, you won't have to do it manually. However, I have seen data for the app is not restored, but you can log into most apps and most games save your progress on the cloud now.

How are you doing guys?

I bought an s4 for my son

i want to keep tabs on him because he is a teen and lets say he is not that responsible and trustworthy during these great years of his life

anyways this is what i am trying to do without rooting the phone

i want to be able to lock the stock application manager on the phone

reason being is if i install a location/tracking app to track the phone (hopefully my son is with it) i dont want my son to enter the app manager and mess with the settings or uninstall the app completely

also i would like to be able to remotely disable the wifi, data, and texting capabilities on the phone so he can only call me (or certain emergency numbers) if he decides he wants to be an ass and not answer my calls .

Is there an app i can install on my phone and his phone to do this?

Thanks for the help

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] taosk8r:
So.. I switched to CM 7.2, and I'm just not feeling the dramatic increase in speed people seem to report vs. stock.

It seems like it was true even before I started installing stuff, but I'm wondering if maybe some of the random, maybe naughty stuff Ive installed is dragging things down at this point.

I have AVG on here as it is almost top rated on PC, perhaps someone might have a better droid anti-malware recommendation (AVG finds nothing)?

I'm wondering if its worth reinstalling and re-configuring everything, and I'm also wondering if anyone has tested the 10.1 and 11.0 CM builds on this phone, and if they run much slower/if the speed disadvantage will give me other advantages (not really knowing about the extra features added from 7.2 on)?

Edit: I'm wondering if not clearing the regular cache might have been part of the issue.. Didn't have an app to do this, not sure what anyone would recommend..

Also, if I'm going to do this, is it worth going to stock in the interim so I can do the OTA and get an updated radio (I'm assuming this happens with the OTA.. I couldn't get it before because it wouldn't reboot, but I found the fix for that)?

Entering recovery or doing a factory reset?

If you are able to enter recovery mode, try as "KeTuRr74" described. After that flash your rom again and try to boot without flashing a new kernel.

Original means for you? Samsung and provider stock rom?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test84:
Hi,

I've been meaning to find a smooth Android experience with a 2012 "grouper" Nexus 7, which is apparently too much to ask.

I got this device second handed and it was on 5.0 Lolipop and was laggy. I flashed CM 11 and was still laggy. Upgraded via OTA to latest build, which I believe was M12 snapshop, and got worse.

After a week o Googling around, I wiped all partitions (except my internal SD Card), mounted them and "fstrim"-ed partitions to fix any fragmented empty space, even though it was fixed in 4.2. I tried LagFix with no luck. Also removed apps to free up space, no luck. Disabled Google Currents (which is obsolete now), disabled location services, whatever I could find on the net, done with no result.

Finally I flashed "cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-grouper" and "gapps-kk-20140606-signed" and restored my backups with Titanium Backup and still have lag.

I have several questions but I keep it simple for now:

1) Since I backed up my apps from the laggy roms, are they defective? At least their "user data"?

2) I just want a smooth android experience so I can safely test my games on it. Am I on a wrong foot with CM? Is there "better" ROMs for my need?

(I know it's unholy to talk about pros and cons of roms, at least in other forums is, but I'm on the verge of my sanity)

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkpod:
Honestly, the stock lollipop 5.0.2 is pretty smooth. Not totally 100% lag free, but much better than any Rom I've tried in the last few months. I'm enjoying it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckyrumo:
Well, the standard advice is "switch to F2FS", and it helped me a lot. Lollipop lags only rarely now, if the uptime gets to long.

---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:38 PM ----------

Regarding your second point: CM should be okay, as most other "original" roms. I've only had problems with roms who combine many features from different sources.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] funkpod:
What is switch to f2fs?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckyrumo:
F2FS is a filesystem that is optimized for flash storage. It's much faster than the standard ext4, which was developed with magnetic drives in mind.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test84:
Is it possible to change stock 5.0.2 of Nexus 2012's firmware to F2FS (or anyhing that does that) or I should go with custom roms? If custom rom, which one would you recommend to achieve F2FS?

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckyrumo:
I honestly don't know if stock works with F2FS, but I'm pretty sure you would have to flash a custom kernel (like phantom kernel).

For custom roms, you must distinguish those which offer "All-F2FS", which means that all partitions (including /system) are on F2FS, from the possibility on almost any rom to have only cache and data on F2FS (after flashing an f2fs-compatible kernel). IMHO the latter is fast enough, since the content of /system doesn't change while running.

There's a lot of roms now, so try for yourself. I don't have time to try out a lot at the moment (exams...), the one I use currently (see my signature) is okay, but not perfect. (but maybe the current release is better, I haven't updated for a while now.)

This rom has an All-F2FS-version and is very close to stock, so too few features for me, but maybe you'll like it ;) I used it directly after lollipop release. Here's a related post from me, the links in there are a bit outdated, but the rest should be correct.

One important thing: Formatting to F2FS will wipe everything, including /sdcard, so do a BACKUP on your PC or USB drive first!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test84:
Thanks, your post was fantastic and I changed my device's file system to F2FS and installed SlimKat on it and it solved the problem (there is still a bit of lag, but the device is usable now).

I followed your advice and tried to find other ROMs that support F2FS or All-F2FS but could not understand the descriptions in ROM threads completely. Would someone please help me on how I can find other ROMs that are F2FS OR can be turned into one?

This led me to want to try to build ROMs myself as well ;o)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckyrumo:
You're welcome.

The All-F2FS roms usually have [F2FS] written in their thread's title, and if you don't care if /system is f2fs, you can use any rom with an f2fs-kernel. Simply flash it directly after the rom itself (without rebooting first).

For Kitkat, this thread seems to be a list of f2fs-roms and -kernels.

For Lollipop, there's at least BSZAOSP and SlimLP as roms, and Phantom and M-Kernel as kernels.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test84:
Thanks. Is there CyanogenMod newer than M9 with F2FS for Nexus7?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] luckyrumo:
I don't know, but you could try to convert it yourself. There are apps for this on the play store (search for F2FS), and I've heard they work fine, at least for KitKat (they discussed it somewhere in the BSZAOSP thread I linked above).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] test84:
Thanks.

after several days of usage, I still find the "mmcqd/0" process is causing lags on my device. I've installed SlimKat and have plenty of free space on my device and not too many apps installed, and also disabled their auto start on boot with Clean Master.

Any other thing I can do?

I mean, the slow NAND was the problem from the start, why recently people opt to F2FS?
