A bit disappointed that nobody except us 2 actually joins in - but this is how xda is nowadays i guess..

Anyway: To actually open supersu and xposed app settings you will have to install "Holo Themer" Xposed module and activate "material design" for the app that you want to use.

It seems that the apps / activities that dont work are using some ui elements that are not available on the fire tv - but with holo themer it works.

Be aware though: My fire tv didnt boot through anymore after restart - which seems to be related to holo themer .. which i dont really understand yet.
[Fire TV General] zroice:
i wish i could just use dalvik .. i bet these bootloops / hangs are all caused by that fkin art runtime. On my phone I still use jellybean on purpose lol.. much more modding freedom compared to this newer android versions.. garh

Getting some really strange behaviors:

Activate some xposed modules, reboot, everything works. Then without actually changing any settings in the modules or smth I reboot one more time, and fire tv stuck at boot logo.

WTF is that?! Not really deterministic to me.. =/..... it should either work or not work.

Sometimes clearing the "dalvik" cache helps to get it to boot again.. but then after another reboot its back to beeing stuck at boot logo. I wish I would understand wtf is causing this. The modules which do seem to cause those loops actually do work also.. at least until you reboot lol.. (like that holo themer example from above..)
[Fire TV General] zroice:
I read now that the holo themer has problems with lollipop. Its weird it actually works - you activate the module, reboot and it works.. then you reboot again and you are stuck in bootloop.

Im currently trying to figure out how to prevent the bootloops and still use it. I guess you just temporarily activate it to edit settings of an app like supersu. then uninstall it afterwards. If you need it again you just install it again. If youre stuck in bootloop the easiest way to get into the system again is to delete the modules.list file in the /data/data/xxx/conf folder of the xposed installer. Then it will boot without any modules active one time. Sometimes a clear of dalvik cache is also necessary to fix bootloops caused by xposed modules.
[Fire TV General] zroice:
Regarding the Holo Themer Bootloop:

In order to temporarily use holo themer to change settings of apps that crash/close otherwise here is what I figured out:

1. Install Holo Themer and turn it on in xposed installer (but DONT launch it yet!)

2. Reboot device so that the xposed module is active and then launch holo themer.

3. Edit the Theme of the apps that normally dont work to "Material Dark"

4. Open those apps and do your stuff.

5. Deinstall Holo Themer.

6. Reboot.

Unfortunately you cannot make apps like supersu permanently run correctly but at least you can edit the settings that way.
[Fire TV General] zroice:
now things get really weird. Using holo themer version 3.0 I manage to boot up the fire tv with it still active .. although not every time. Like I had to restart it (unplug + replug) it 3 times and then it finally boot through. No clearing dalvik - nothing inbetween. Dont get it.. but at least its kinda workin now...

------

ADD: Well it seems to be that only cold-booting works with holo themer installed. When I make a restart through settings the device bootloops, when I take out the wall plug and make a cold boot it does boot up..

Thanks for listing Xposed Additions. Allowed me to remap my home key after the latest update!
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
What FW where u on ? Where u able to remap it to AppStarter ? More info please.
[Fire TV General] aleins4u:
5.2.4.1. You can remap to any application with the pro version, I remapped to FiredTV. Testing today revealed that the voice search button no longer works when using Xposed Additions though.

You can also remap the home button with GravityBox (LP), but it only allows you to remap double-tap and long press of the home button. But I did remap that to FiredTV successfully as well.

---------- Post added at 02:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:43 AM ----------

Are you still able to use the voice search button in tandem with Xposed Additions?

I tried to re-map the home button to start FireStarter application by installing Xposed Additions pro via Google play store on my rooted Fire TV (first gen) with pre-rooted 5.2.4.1 ROM but no luck. Am I missing something?
[Fire TV General] Y314K:
Guys try out the XPosed Edge Pro. It seems to be the most complete XPosed module that is compatible with FTV devices. It should even be compatible with FireOS 3.

It brought back all the options FireStarter used to have. Using it with AppStarter. Plan to play with it more in the future too.
[Galaxy Grand Prime Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TommyB24:
Hello. I am having troubles with my Samsung Galaxy grand prime phone (SM-S920L) (Straight Talk). I had to restart my phone in order to use my data because I used all my high speed data. But when I do, a pop up window appears that says "installing apps" right before the lock screen appears. After that, my phone keeps displaying "unfortunately, (Gmail, calendar, etc.) Has stopped" messages and I haven't even been on those apps! Also, when I try to open an app (whether it's a system app or a downloaded app), it immediately crashes and displays the "unfortunately, app has stopped" message. Even when I use messaging or email, it crashes!

Here's what I did before the problems:

1. I installed Kingroot and rooted the system.

2. I installed Link2sd and moved/linked all the apps I needed to my SD card.

3. I got the notification that I used up all my high speed data and must restart the phone in order to use 2g data.

4. I restarted my phone.

5. After it booted up, it gave me an "installing app 1 of 2" message and then it went to the lock screen.

6. I typed in the code to unlock the screen.

7. It immediately started the errors!

I called samsung support to get help with these problems and they said to reset to factory defaults so I did...MULTIPLE TIMES!!! It stopped after a while after each reset and a while after, it does it again.

I deleted the apps that keep crashing and try to reinstall them but it keeps giving me download errors!

Please help!!!!!!!

Unfortunately the app settings xposed module keeps closing whenever I try to edit the settings of an app. (to change the DPI)

Does anyone know an alternative? Dont want to change the system DPI but the "per app" dpi and the only way I know to do that so far is the app settings xposed module. Anyone know a different way?
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blurp76:
When I tried using this xposed module on my aftv 1 I had the same problem, I solved it by installing the same module and the app I needed to modify on my phone, then configure it and export the settings

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] rash.m2k:
Hi All,

Having some issues with my Galaxy Note 10.1 which I've had for quite a while now. It's rooted but with Android 5.0 stock rom and a custom kernel.

Just now (like 20mins ago) I tried to enable Adblock plus app, the app said it can't automatically change the settings - even though SuperSU was installed and had no issues with it previously. So like all things thought I'd give it a reboot that ought to clear it out. That didn't work, so tried clearing cache (Dalvik/ART/Cache), Still no joy.

I'm a s/w engineer, but not and android/bootloader expert, so I've tried to grab the dmesg and boot logs which I've attached, I've got some stuff on the internal SD (app data) which I'd like to keep, hence I'm not going for the full wipe.

Please take a look at the logs and see if you can determine how to fix this issue, my initial thoughts were there are some issues with the flash storage (bad sectors/partition table?), if I could grab the image and dd the image again I'd be OK - but I don't know much about about android boot loader/kernel etc so can't say.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] rash.m2k:
Ok it has been fixed by wiping data - but I've lost my data and installed apps!

Is there anyway to find out which file/app is causing the boot loop so I can restore data, delete the offending file?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] ssj4maiko:
Well, I shall give a bump to this topic, with a little more info. Though probably not really useful.

First I had stock 5.1.1 deodex pre root etc ROM that, after I tried to insert a nano sim card (mine is a 601 3G model) that got stuck, it entered on a bootloop, I had to open it, take the sim card out, and it was still on a boot loop. Tried to install another image, still bootloop, tried to reinstall the original one I had, still bootloop, wiped data, worked fine.

Then almost 2 weeks later, everything worked fine, went to watch a video, the sound was mute, tried to turn it on but everything looked fine, decided to restart because it would probably fix the problem. Got a bootloop. Wiped the data, everything was fine again.

Now, a little more than 2 weeks later, seems like the wifi is not working, thought all my other devices are, guess it's the same problem, decided to restart it, and bootloop again. I'm currently trying to update my TWRP, and gonna try a different ROM, and wait to see if something like that happens, until then, I wonder what could be happening... I remembered an Asus Device that I had that had different firmware versions for 4.4 and 4.1, so if I tried to flash a 4.4 on a 4.1 firmware it wouldn't work, and for downgrade, the same problem happened, and wondered if Samsung has some difference between versions 4 and 5.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) Q&A, Help & Troubl] rash.m2k:
ssj4maiko Let me know if you find a more stable rom - I went back to pretty much stock, but with root as I wanted to use all the Samsung apps, but this constant random bootloops are annoying!

It might be wise to state what your problem is instead of random screenshots. You havnt said what's eating your battery, how long it's been off change, status of states sleep/awake, status of reception or WiFi. How long you have been using MM.

2.5 hours screen on time would be awesome if your phone has been off charge for a month.

Everything is better on MM from my point of view. Even battery without stamina.

[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CyberPonk:
No it isn´t.

Lithium batteries (as most chemicals) wear with use, so the less you use them, the more they last.

You can make your battery last 3 times longer by not using it past 50% on a frequent basis.

"Table 2: Cycle life as a function of depth of discharge.

A partial discharge reduces stress and prolongs battery life. Elevated temperature and high currents also affect cycle life."

DoD = Depth of Discharge

100% DoD: 300 – 500 cycles

50% DoD: 1,200 – 1,500 cycles

25% DoD: 2,000 – 2,500 cycles

10% DoD: 3,750 – 4,700

That's an excellent discovery, my friend. What you can also do, is leave your phone where you bought it and not using it at all. Therefore, the battery will never be used.

Hello I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 AT&T smn900a running 4.3 rooted using Kingo root.

I've been tried to reflash my phone to get it back to the start and it failed I have the original files but it won't let me flush them. Now superseded says it needs to update the binary and fails every time and it says I don't have root access. Ultimately what I would like to do now is put my phone back to stock and upgrade it and reroot. Everything I have tried has failed and I have been messing with this for over 2 weeks now.

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] mea20:
This is what happened:

I decided to upgrade my consumer cellular 4.3 android to marshmallow using the instructions i found here: http://techxat.com/install-cm13-nightly-6-0-marshmallow-on-huawei-ascend-mate-2/

The instructions said the upgrade was compatible with all HAM2 devices so I thought that might mean I could bypass that conversion from CC to OEM (http://xdaforums.com/ascend-mate2/general/guide-cc-variant-to-oem-convertion-t3149767)

So I followed the instructions in the first link and made a big mistake by wiping the device using TWRP before performing the rest of the steps. It was a little unclear. Anyways, that option erased the OS and I could not get back into TWRP. Only cyanogenmod 13, or the device's stock recovery loader would boot.

So, I thought it's okay, ill just do the CC to OEM conversion, and then start over from there. But I can't install the OEM software based on the instructions in the second link.

I think my main problem is getting TWRP reinstalled on the device. when I use the "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" command, it gives me that "error: cannot open twrp.img" . I checked the file extension to make sure it was not hiding an extra .img, and i confirmed my device shows up through the command "fastboot devices".

so I'm stuck with cyanogenmod. I tried to install oem.zip using cyanogenmod, but it keeps on failing. I tried two microSD cards with the same result.

what's my next step??

btw, yes, my phone is rooted.

[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] oncouch1:
Remember the newer roms must have the 322 bootloader and a latest version of TWRP. My recommendation load the factory 322 rom run it for a few and see how you like it. I find battery life better and the ability to use sdcard for internal memory a sweet combo. I have used many custom roms but they kill battery a little quicker, I like having a phone last for two days with moderate usage, and found emui allows lots of tweeking.
[Huawei Ascend Mate 2] mea20:
thanks for the reply. you are right, after i posted i realized i needed to upgrade to 322 first, which i did, and like you said im just going to test this out and probably wont bother going with marshmallow since this OS seems to be running smooth. One question though: i backed up my contacts using hisuite before flashing the phone, but now hisuite does not recognize the phone with the new OS. what do you suggest i do to get my contacts loaded?

update: i got hisuite working. I had to enable usb debugging mode and disable the "allow hisuite to use hdb" option.
