With root and xposed is easy to make Youtube playing on background, but if you don't have root? You dont have xposed? Or simply you are on Nougat and there's no more xposed?

Well there, here's the official app Youtube, last official Build patched​

Download link coming soon.

It works on almost every device that support Youtube.

From Android 4.4 to Android 7.0/1/2

Background works like the old one, pushing notification on the statusbar.

The package is update to the lastest version of Youtube.

I'm 'working' to a No-Ads / Background version of youtube, cheers;

I'm working for the first apk, i'll work on the one without ADS with background after that.
[Android Apps and Games] bustyouup4free:
umm... did you test this....? is not working on Superman Rom 2.2 for s7 flat Int exynos... just fyi

i downloaded your file, installed it. reboot and no good. when i hit home button youtube does not keep playing. if you have some instructions you forgot maybe edit your post. or what is needed...?
[Android Apps and Games] Zorikage:
My mistake! Find out i've upload the wrong apk, i'll update the link as fast possible.
[Android Apps and Games] MalevolentAmmo:
Anyone know if you're able to login to YouTube? OGYoutube doesn't let me and I'm looking for a replacement. Possibly this one once you add ad blocking.
[Android Apps and Games] Assunta_Maggio74:
When you update can you use a better file sharing system
[Android Apps and Games] jerryn70:
Did you updated the op with correct apk ?
[Android Apps and Games] Zorikage:
I did a big mistake, i replaced the build of my patched apk with original youtube last version apk where i was working on!

For now i take down the download link and i'll try to work on it again.

Sure, i'll put a mirror link for those that can't use the XDA attachment anyway.

This is like the same when you are on ROOT and you use the patch from Lucky patcher on a Nougat device, or the same like using XPOSED module. You can login easily but you won't have any real-time update from Google Playstore. I'll try to update the apk as fast possible when i get a new official update.
[Android Apps and Games] MalevolentAmmo:
Any idea when you'd have the ad block working?
[Android Apps and Games] Zorikage:
When i release the first version of the apk, it would be easy to do the no-ads version after that.

I was trying my hands on rooting my Oneplus X device, but after tying fastboot oem unlock command my phone is not getting rebooted. Command line just shows "waiting for device". I tried command fastboot devices but it doesn't display device although adb devices command is working fine.

I have enabled Oem unlocking and USB debugging from developer options and using Windows 8 machine. Can anyone help me out in this?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] GokulNC:
If you're one of the guys who's hating the new "WhatsApp Status" feature like me, this thread is for you!!

OLD METHOD: (Does not work)

Requirements

:

1. ROOTed device

2. Any Root File Explorer or SharedPreferences Editor

Note:

This trick was working only till version 2.17.81.. So, it will no longer work on newer versions. (All you can do now is switch to older versions to get rid of the feature)

WHY?

This status_mode sharedpref is like a remote config, which gets altered by changing the server-side parameter values.

It seems WhatsApp used this to enable the feature to all updated devices (of specific groups) at once when needed, instead of just immediately enabling the feature when it's implemented in the app.

Since it has seemed to them the feature is stable, the condition checking for status_mode was removed, and status feature has been made permanent.

Steps:

0. Force Stop WhatsApp before proceeding.

1. a. For Root Explorers, open the file '/data/data/com.whatsapp/shared_prefs/com.whatsapp_preferences.xml'

b. For SharedPreference Editors, select 'WhatsApp' and then select 'com.whatsapp_preferences'.

2. Find the key name: 'status_mode' and edit its value from '1' and make it as '0'.

For text editors, change

<int name="status_mode" value="[I][B]1[/B][/I]"/>

to:

<int name="status_mode" value="[I][B]0[/B][/I]"/>

3. Now, launch WhatsApp and see if there's a difference :cool:

Methods that work as of now:

You may use any one of the following Xposed Modules:

1. WhatsApp Extensions

2. WA Tweaker

great information mate. its work on whatsapp mode latest based for me. Great job.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Swapnil Soni:
Lol what is so complicated to save properly.. Just save and reboot thats works for me,

But also i found you can share 100MB videos too .

Just by changing media_share_limit from 16 to 100..

Tested month ago
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] muzliamir:
how to change it?? what this folder part tu change that?? can tell me mate?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Swapnil Soni:
In data/data/com.whatsapp/shared_prefers/com.whatsapp_preferences.xml

And there you have to find code of media mb share value limit it will be 16 so change to 64 and save and reboot then you may share 64MB video...

Ps:sry i told 100MB but its not i shared 58mb video on that time, but confirmed with 64MB .. If you are on Beta check for 100MB too, see if you succeed or not.

Gud luck
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] muzliamir:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] vishal007:
The fact that there's a preference for this makes me think, WhatsApp is/was actually planning to provide this new functionality as an option in preferences. If it doesn't make it to any near future versions, that would mean a higher up or some internal team members don't like this new feature either and left this preference for himself ;)

You can also use WA Tweaks. This app helps a lot without playing with codes. Download it from here https://watweaks.com

The other day I factory reset my Z5C, flashed a generic, stock ftf with flashtool and then later realised that I might need root to pull some backups out from a TWRP backup.

I found a SuperSU zip, forced TWRP boot from fastboot, then installed the SuperSU zip.

Now it's stuck on the white SONY screen and I can't get back in to recovery, but I can get in to fastboot.

Is it bricked?

Only later did I remember that the original root method was completely different.

Please help, I'm so worried that I've stuffed it.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Silvers91:
Hi guys

Just received my redmi note 4 three days ago, set it up and installed all my apps and it was good, the version on it was MIUI 8.0.3.0 Global Stable, but it was asking me to update to 8.0.4.0, so I did, and ever since I noticed that the phone gets more hot, battery drains faster than it used to on previous version, and what's even worse, is the signal, it keeps always switching between 4G and 3G even if the signal coverage in my location is good (had the galaxy s7 before and it never did this), even on MIUI 8.0.3.0 it was a stable 4G all the time. So I performed a factory reset and started fresh, battery and heat are now good but I still have the bad signal issue. So I figured that I should downgrade to MIUI 8.0.3.0 and wait for 8.2 hoping that it won't have this issue. The question is how can I do that? Can I use the standard method of flashing using SP Flash Tool found here? http://en.miui.com/thread-370620-1-1.html

If you have any other solutions, please advise

Thank you!
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] silvershadow666:
Hello there!

You can use the method that you linked without any problem. SPFlashTool does not check for current firmware version so you can do a downgrade just fine. Make sure to follow the exact steps in MIUI Forums especially where it says wich files/images to flash to your device. Otherwise you may brick your Note 4.

If you are interested you could also try a custom ROM wich will give you a smoother and less buggy device. But you will need a bootloader unlock for that to work.

;)
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Silvers91:
Thanks

I've already downgraded, unlocked my bootloader and tried a couple of custom ROMs including Epic ROM and multirom, but I didn't like them very much, they had too many buys and the development for them is not very good.. Could you suggest a good custom ROM that isn't as buggy and has a good battery life? I'd appreciate it if you could.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] silvershadow666:
I only tested one ROM yet and that would be that one linked here!

It works just fine at the moment. I have had it for 4 days now. I would also suggest flashing Magisk 11 or suhide.

There currently is a Bug with the middle Softkey wich is assigned to multitasking view and the google search at once. Someone has posted a fix for that wich i cant find currently because it was posted in MIUI forums and the user was banned. You can always try to swap the Softkeys yourself with an xposed module or a root app.

:silly:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] Silvers91:
Tried this one before, it was good enough, and I was able to swap the buttons using Gravitybox.. I just flashed latest epic ROM yesterday and so far so good.. But I'll surely change it again in a few days (I love re-flashing ROMs) :p

Hi,

Don't know if it's of any use but I found a cab file in the windows folder on the TC. HTC_Home_PPC_Blue.CAB If this is the file that runs during customization might be helpful. If you're interested I could upload it for u (not sure about the 'blue' part though).
[Touch Cruise General] tea3:
Do you want the Htc.tsk ?
[Touch Cruise General] JulianL:
I don't know about Metanol but I would love the HTC.tsk (I think).

I have an O2 XDA Orbit (i.e. the Artemis-based one not the new Orbit 2 Polaris-based device) and I also like the black colour scheme that HTC use. I've flashed my device to the official O2 WM6 ROM and I don't have (or need) the fancy HTC tabbed Today screen but what I would really like is to be able to change the colours on the default WM6 Crossbow theme to the HTC black colours. I think that if I just install a suitable tsk then this will do it won't it?

If the above is correct then please do post the HTC.tsk and hopefully that might solve Metanol's problem too.

Hi qtek_metanol - i am new to this site and i just recently purchased an O2 Orbit 2 in UK. Managed to find this old thread.

I too would like to get the HTC home screen rather than the O2 theme. Can you let me know if all i need to do is add the HTC default.tsk file to my device under Windows directory to get the HTC home setup. Would this then give me a choice on my Today menu where i can select between O2 and HTC Home?

Finally can you confirm this won;t affect my original settings on my device and if i want to remove it all i need to do is delete the HTC default.tsk file and that would set my phone back to as it was originally?

Thanks
[Touch Cruise General] pavb:
forgot to add that i tried loading the 6 button version and had lots of trouble with that hence i thought maybe the original HTC home (4 button) from the Polaris/Touch Cruise would work better on my Orbit 2. Can you confirm also this is the original Home screen you get on the TC?
