[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MerynGoesAndroid:
Why is this such a great deal?

Pros

* It seems to work

* It passed google's requirements and malware checks

* Does not need root

Cons

* Closed source

Just because we (you) can't comprehend how it works, is not a reason to question its viability.

Keeping it closed source and not revealing its workings is just a way to prevent competition and/or code copying.

There are lots of fake apps that pretend to be doing something you should be more worried about.

I wouldn't really worry about this one, but if you don't trust it, don't use it.

To answer your question; I would say its either one of these

* Animation caching

* Reducing element-sizes, and thus stretching it to save system resources (since the app needs to know you screen resolution)

* System optimizations for animations (Altho these things usually require root)

On a side note, since you are posting this on the Nexus 4 forums, I assume you own/use one. The article you linked clearly says older devices benefit more from this app, since newer/better devices already handle things pretty smoothly. This means that the result of this app on a Nexus 4 may be unnoticeable. Could it be that you question this app because you don't see any result?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boltthrower56:
No , it could not be because i had not tested the app when i wrote that. (Had you bothered to read , you'd know.) We question everything on this forum , that's how we learn. I did not assume that it was "fake" by the way , if that's why you're hostile (and arrogant). People on other forums compared this to "snake oil". I wanted to share the app with friends so it could grow. That's why i wanted to make out how it works. I can't share this app before knowing that it's not "snake oil".

When i said i'm not "that" affiliated with Android ecosystem , i didn't mean i'm illiterate btw.

Anyway , i could already make those out from the description of the app (Yes , i too read it :) ). I wanted more of a technical answer but thank you , nevertheless...

On a side note , In a help thread please just answer the question if you can , skip the lectures people didn't ask for. I asked "available devs" to explain the intricate workings of an app so as to clear the air , not only did you not provide that but you tried to give me a lesson on morality. Please refrain from doing that. And please do not write a lengthy and angry reply to this. I'm just not interested in arguing with you.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] robocopvn:
Using it for 2 days. And I have to admit that it works, really well, without harming battery, which is a amazing win-win solution.

I asked on the Google play store and get the answer from the developer: the app offload the working process from the CPU to the GPU, hence everything gets much smoother and the performance level depends on your device's GPU.

[General Questions and Answers] 8hodgsonkh:
Is there any playstore mods I can install to force my phone to install apps that are now compatible. A few games ive bought have became incompatible after a while and i cant install them/update them if i download an apk. Im using an Xperia M stock 4.3 rooted with an overclocked kernel and cwm. Ive tried market helper and installed from playstore website but the app never started to install. Any help would be appreciated thanks :)
[General Questions and Answers] bweN diorD:
i believe i remember seeing an exposed module that would bypass it, but dont hold me to that.

maybe do some searches on the exposed site and see if you can find anything.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] beypazari:
Head into galaxy apps and download it.

Works great under coj5 firmware.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] sushant1thakran:
I think its cool...

It finally let me choose the settings for the games which didnt have these kind of settings

Like

Display

Most of the games run on stretched 1080

But with the help of this tool

I can manage the fps

Resolution

Etc...

Thanks for sharing man!!
[Galaxy Note 4 General] beypazari:
Yeah 2k is overkill for any 3d game. Although I don't game too much this is definitely a cool feature. Makes you love touchwiz.
[Galaxy Note 4 General] thedicemaster:
just what I needed.

a few years ago I bought a nice little music game that unfortunately is no longer supported.

it had this annoying design flaw where it could only run at 3 specific resolutions.

after phones started coming out with HD resolutions it could no longer run fullscreen, and now it's the size of a postage stamp.

combining the extra-low resolution setting in game tuner with the game's 800x480(mid) resolution makes it playable again.

edit: it can also let you choose between tablet(mid/high) and phone(e.low/low) interface for galaxy on fire 2.

I recommend either mid(tablet interface, but playable) or low(intended scale for the device's screen size)
[Galaxy Note 4 General] senectus:

Canadian Note 4 - I was able to install it yesterday. I have only used it to force CoC and Boom Beach back up to qHD resolution. Today when checking the Samsung App Store - it no longer shows the Game Tuner app anymore.

In any case - you may also need the Game Service installed - at least it was a requirement for my Note 4.

View attachment 3549328

I was able to push both APKs over to my Tab S - and it works there too! Boom Beach is back to its 2560x1600 glory.

Hello!

So, I've gotten my hands on a HOX+ and decided to install a ROM on it.

Unlocked the bootloader, rooted, did everything. Installed CM12.1 and tried to turn the phone on.

It showed the CM guy's head and the pulsating thing but nothing more.

I've tried another ROM and it was pretty much the same.

What do I do?

Telegram would much better as does not require any personal data to be shared. Additionally it's a much more flexible platform to share files (e.g apk) and fully cloud based.

[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
Changelogs:

HTE- Free

Version 1.1

Code improvement

Removed location access for ads management.
[Xposed Framework Modules] JoeFCaputo113:
Why would this need location permission?

Also, what will be the difference between the paid and free version?
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
The same is required by ad service to show you apps available in your area. Please be rest assured as we use reputed agency.

Paid version will have more feature including the ones greyed out in this version. We will release paid version with a trial period of 15 days so that users can try it out before they decide to purchase it. The paid version in future updates will also have features like bubble themes, theme store etc.
[Xposed Framework Modules] JoeFCaputo113:
So you use location for ads?!!? Wtf no way, no thanks. :rolleyes::eek:
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
I think you are new to all this, everyone in this world who has ads in build will have this. Nothing gets captured only just to see which app is available in your location that is it. I will see if we can get rid if this part.

Rest is all your choice no one is forcing.
[Xposed Framework Modules] JoeFCaputo113:
Nope I'm not new to this which is why I won't be DLing.. I feel bad for people who are new to this and use this app. :eek::eek::eek:

Will have all greyed out feature in free app and many more in following updates.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mystery007:
Was waiting for such a module for a long time which can theme hangouts. I hope that you will release the pro version soon as the greyed out feature looks cool.
[Xposed Framework Modules] freeza:
Interested in this pro version. Uninstalled after 15 seconds and 3 ads. Terrible implementation.
[Xposed Framework Modules] winchendonsprings:
Why would you not use an ad blocker? Seems like most people interested enough to use

Xposed would use some sort of ad blocker as well, no?
[Xposed Framework Modules] freeza:
Normally I'd tend to agree, but I have no apps with these types of ads. I use an adblocker with hosts solution. Seems to be enough for me. :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] mybhaskar:
Same here, I was eagerly waiting for the hangouts themeing... And m sure the pro version has something special and much more to do with #hangouts :)
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
I am sure you will not be disappointed with pro first release. Gradually updates will bring lot advanced features.
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
Keeping in mind the user feedback, we have removed the location access from the app which was only available to provide better ads management and nothing else.

The new version 1.1 can be downloaded from Xposed repo download section or the first post of this thread.
[Xposed Framework Modules] freeza:
You should remove the ads completely and just offer a trial. I won't even download 1.1 because of the terribly intrusive ads.
[Xposed Framework Modules] vishal11in:
Bro i will be releasing a pro version with 15 days trial. Its almost complete, few adjustments to be made. As far as this one is concerned i think you are over reacting as it only shows ads twice one in the start and other at the exist. Rest it is your personal choice and i respect your decision.
[Xposed Framework Modules] mybhaskar:
During last few day's I have seen lots of review about Hangouts Theme engine, and why it has ads....

Well I have my own opinion about this topic and that isn't concerned with the Devs moto for this app.

First of all I think this app is just a standalone app which doesn't need to keep open and use it... U just have to open this when u want to change/edit your theme...and I have seen the ads comes only on entry and exit time, does it brings ads in Hangouts app ? I think NO.... So does it really matters ?

This is unique app does brilliant job to mod #hangouts.

Does we think ever that the Dev has spend so many hours to build this app ?

Anwys :thumbup: from my side.

I am using this app and it's good working fine ... Ads doesn't matter it I love the work what it actually does... :)
