Hello TheDantee, thanks for your work, only intrested in performance and minimizing lag, dont care about battery life, do you see better performance and less lag with this set up?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Phone flies like a Rocket Ship! Try it out man The app has a 5 day refund if you choose to not use it, so Worth a shot to try it out.... You will like it!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] ericizzy1:
Did you disable all 200+ apps?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Delete
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Yes, accept for like FB, gallery and a couple other apps.

My question to the OP is what number is a good number for free memory space? I can't tell or am not sure if there is a major change in what's available. Here is a screenshot of one. It ranges from 723 to 1g.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
ur free mem will depend on what apps you have.... should be over 1G almost 24/7 could u send a screenshot of ur apps library?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
216 I think....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Would you like it from my app drawer or BK Disabler?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
app drawer, and if you want you can send through BK Disabler
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Here you go. Let me know if you need more. Android Wear uses a lot and so does Nova launcher and I use those both, so they are out of the question. Haha.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
I can name a Few apps that could cause it.... as they are running all the time check ur dev options then running services see what is currently running when u have all apps closed so you know what to pinpoint

Substratum works on stock rom for s8+??
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Not that I am aware of, pretty sure you need root for that
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Yes it does, but you can't use system UI and Android system yet. For those, use Samsung themes. But it looks amazing with their party apps.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] RockyAJ:
Unrooted?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Correct, I'm not rooted. You have to download the APK from Nicholas to use it. There are only 2 themes working for substratum and so phones, swift dark and swift black.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] RockyAJ:
Can you link us please?

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] SavageCore:
You can actually. I'm using Lock Clean without issue.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] RockyAJ:
That clearly states it requires root. We're talking about non root.

And i guess we deviated from op topic. So better cut it off here. Sorry op
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] SavageCore:
I am not rooted.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Just set it up from the link in telegram. Installed the APK works without root using the Swift Black theme
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
so why are you using nav bar apps etc if you can edit the nav bar via substratum
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Good catch. I'll go ahead and delete those. I had them way before Nicholas put together substratum for us.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] RockyAJ:
i wasn't talking about substratum in general. i read the whole thread about nicholas's work and apk in telegram group. i meant lockclean that states it needs root in play store
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] zplit:
Works with no root as well
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] OutCastedSheep:
I used this xml.

every working execept, system update.

It seems take very long time to check for updates, then it had a pop up messages say something about "your system has been modify or something"??

But i am not rooted.

Anyway to know what cause this? I want to get the security updates that going around right now from samsung Tmobile.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
System Updates is disabled to prevent the system from checking all the time we'll using battery life.... Enabled all the disabled apps get updates from Samsung then you may reach apply the xml and be good until feature updates
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] ericizzy1:
I want to do this, but want the system updates, how do we manually turn them on?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Enable these

com.sec.android.soagent

com.wssycmldm

com.sec.android.diagmonagent
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Just to be clear, the system updates y'all are talking about are system apps or updates for the actual phone?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
actual
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
But it still can be done manually correct?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Interesting,bthe first 2 were already enabled, the last one was disabled. But I got this notice...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
In a way.... Like i stated to the other guy either re-enable those services or check XDA Every month to see if there is software update then just enable all packages download update then re-apply the XML
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
hmmmm. prob a samsung service I disabled to check I'll have a look later, but usually i just enable all then check update then put xml back in
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Probably. I noticed a locationXT was disabled and only know this because my God had trouble finding me. I enabled it and all is fine
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] ericizzy1:
So , now you can get all the updates?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
yes its disabled as I use my phone location in battery saving because I can read the roads on the GPS to find where I am exactly...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Ignore this.... Forgot to Upload Images....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Here is my free ram and my apps..... Yours is very far off
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Yeah, I have way more apps than you, I need to see what I need to get rid of.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Hey [MENTION=7673898]TheDantee[/MENTION]. Question... Is this from disabling certain functions from your APK? Thanks sir
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
yes that is from the disabled packages..... If you want software updates just enable the packages I stated before and possibly Device Maintenance (also stated before) or enable all packages install samsung updates and software updates then re apply xml
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kay2daCee:
Hi [MENTION=7673898]TheDantee[/MENTION] . I've re-enabled the gallery but now it says it's empty. Any idea what I have to enable?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Happened to me too
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] RockyAJ:
Maybe you neee to give the right permissions again? Just guessing here
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
this is meant to be google apps as thats stock android... I'll look into for you though
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Going through The Package Disabler it seems you can delete some of those disabled apps I have already disabled, I noticed you have samsung notes for example which I deleted hence why its not disabled.....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Mine is also empty Cant figure out what it is..... Whats wrong with using google photos?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
It works better with the stock camera if someone still uses that camera, you can see the picture right away vs opening another app
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Prefer open camera, Can set Bitrate on videos to 100% and can make Images 100% Quality over 90% as well as some more pro photography features such as locking the lighting, etc
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
I'll try that out. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Kay2daCee:
Nothing wrong with that. I'm actually using both because of gallery access straight from the stock camera.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
ah ..... check out open camera much better....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] coldfusion167:
I've re-enabled mine as well and it's empty. I would like to use the Samsung Gallery app (I also use Google Photos for back-up). I've tried re-enabling everything and Gallery is still showing empty. I've also made sure that it has all necessary permissions. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thx

EDIT: I figured it out. Enable CMHProvider.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] coldfusion167:
Enable CMHProvider
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Which one is better guys: BK Package Disabler or Package Disabler Pro?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] D@nijel:
Adhell ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Teloah:
I just love the Google Dialer on my Galaxy S8, thanks for sharing.

Can someone recommend a stock-like lockscreen? I have tested Floatify but the notifications don't work that well and the music player is quite buggy (and it doesn't change the background to the album cover).

Would it be possible to port the lockscreen from, let's say, a Google Pixel?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
I'll have a look
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
I prefer Package Disabler Pro
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] neci43:

Srry, I was faster in writing than in reading.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Cant seem to find anything sorry u will have to wait for root....
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
He can download substratum and they have lock screen options.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Teloah:
Thanks for checking. I believe root is available for the S8, so I'll wait and see, maybe someone will port the lockscreen. Or even better, a custom rom based on AOSP ☺

---------- Post added at 08:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:02 AM ----------

What kind of options? Can you give me an example?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Juunishinshou:
Imported the XML (disabled 212 apps) and my RAM free/total 1.25GB /3.46GB.

Not getting 1.9GB free RAM, anything else that I'm missing?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Look up lock clean substratum in play store
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
do u have facebook lite and messenger lite installed? can I see pics of what apps u have installed
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Juunishinshou:
I dont use facebook/messenger.

btw here is my apps. installed (attached).

any tips to get the more of the free rams

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
TheDantee has a very stock like set up, very basic and doesn't use the apps we use. That's how he gets that. I'm looking at my apps and I'm like damn, I need those. Lol.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] bender787:
thanks

thanks for your effort. all links are working fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Teloah:
It's not quite what I'm looking for, I would like to change the appearance of the icon shortcuts and the clock, not hide them. And I like the feature of showing album art when playing music for example. I'm coming from the Nexus 5 and like the clean stock look :)

But it looks better now when I have the shortcuts hidden tho.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
suggestion.... Delete Microsoft Apps.... Delete Samsung Notes and Music as they use more Ram u have MX Player... Never used prefer PowerAMP (check is out if you would like) Ampere is always running also could delete that if you really want to check in dev settings go to running services and u can see what needs to be deleted :) If u use samsung notes switch it out for evernote as u can link it across other devices and PC
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Is it possible that any of these things we've disabled slows down fast charge? Maybe I'm just noticing it, but saw it say 1 hour 15 minutes to fully charge from 25%
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
deleted
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Well I haven't tried deleting the packages only disabling.... this guide was meant for Snapdragon users who dont have access to delete stock apps...
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] suaverc118:
Is there anything in this package that will cause this error? Thanks

enable google text to speech and get back to me ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] unitz0mbie:
alright so i have been using this for a while, although it was well written and explanations were good it was actually bad for the phone, there are things that are completely unnecessary to disable and it actually causes battery drain during stand by, performance is not faster nor is slower, all those system apps u disabled slowed down a lot of the menu items and causes them to take longer to load than it should, Yes u do get more free ram and all that but its wasted ram, only things u should disable if u want to is bixby and maybe some apps that u absolutely do not need, some apps need certain apps to work properly and when it doesnt find the app it actually keeps the phone more awake than it should. i suggest everyone if u think im bull****ting , to just enable everything again and disable just bixby or not if u actually do use it, the phone actually run smoother throughout the UI, it will take the phone about 2-3 days to get used to the way u use it so of u feel it sluggish give it some time to learn your patterns, remember enabling everything at once will take a lot of cpu usage , then little by little the system will put things u dont use to sleep.

EDIT- thedantee thank you for this though, it was great to experiment and make my decision after looking at the results, and we are almost there for root!!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Juunishinshou:
I been using this mod for about 3 weeks, and having one minor problem as my screen to wake up is delayed i.e. whether I press power on button the screen led up to display is delayed like 2-3 seconds. I recall prior using this mod it was instant.

Any clue on where to make it instant again?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] spodtek:
I had the same problem and I figured it out. You have to re-enable everything and then make sure you turn off Iris Scanner. Then disable everything. Mine was on before I did all these tweaks and aftering disabling everything it was delayed because I am guessing it's looking to start the Iris Scanners.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] :
Man, Open Camera was disappointing for me. The added functions aren't worth the quality of the image results when camera to the ones using the stock camera. UI feels super KitKat, too.

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] cam30era:
Now you can install it directly from the play store, and it will be kept up to date.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] TheDantee:
Thanks man I see it
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Themes, Apps, and Mods] note3userr:
Why not just save the hundreds of dollars and buy a stock phone? Is the extra 20 minutes of battery and .1 seconds performance upgrade worth disabling every feature on your phone and causing even more issues. It's impressive that you were able to find so much to disable but i think this is overkill.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech15:
I'm torn between these two phones. I like the pure Android of 6P but I've heard they have issues like bootlooping and power button problems. The S7 looks and feels premium and I know it's probably got more power than the 6P and is also newer. I plan on keeping the phone for at least the next year. What do you guys think? Vote :svetius:
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech15:
Thanks for the suggestion!
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mavelos:
I've used both.

PROS [NEXUS 6P]

amazing sound quality

amazing dev support

decent battery life

Camera quality

CONS [NEXUS 6P]

It isn't lightweight like the S7

has a history of bootlooping and bad volume buttons

No SD Card

PROS [S7]

Water and dust resistant

lightweight and more portable

No history of bootlooping

It charges really fast

Amazing Camera quality

SD card works too

Better resale value (BECAUSE IT'S SAMSUNG!)

CONS [S7]

Weak Battery

Fragile build (glass everywhere)

Poor sound quality

You hardly get software updates too

I'm using the 6P because i love flashing ROMs, taking pictures, and listening to High quality songs. The samsung could only take pictures (Touchwiz got boring and AOSP ROMS ain't stable). So i switched. If you like the same things as i do, then buy the Nexus 6p. If not, then get the S7.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eevanskiteboards:
I agree with Mavelos. I had the S7 for a month and just returned it due to a locked boot loader and very few options to customize etc. there are some hacks for non rooted options such as adblockers (adhell), universal nogat rom with hotspot mod. I like the options more for roms with the nexus 6P. now if i can only get my 6P working with sprint then i will be happy
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohit25:
Get the S7 if you can get it with the capability of unlocking the bootloader... As I have been lurking the S7 edge forums.. and they were able to Port lineage os to exynos variant if i am not wrong....

So u could have the best of both worlds... Best of Samsung hardware and stock Android with Lineage....
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech15:
Thank you for the input guys. The pros and cons are both represented well. I'm still torn between the two. I found a 32gb 6P for $240 and an S7 for $280. The S7 is the T-mobile, Metro PCS etc one. Is that bootloader unlockable?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech15:
I'm leaning towards the 6P by the way
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech_head:
I personally would not buy a Samsung phone because my first thing out of the box is unlock the bootloader and install TWRP.

My next phone is probably a Essential PH-1 if the BL can be unlocked.
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxys:
Samsung Galaxy S8 & S8+ International Exynos varients are unlocked Bootloader out of the box. But yes most are locked like a vault! :D
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zorachus:
The T-Mobile one can't be unlocked and have custom Recovery installed ? If not, then screw that phone.

I still love my 6P, I even returned the S8+ to go back to my 6P
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tech15:
I really don't understand why Samsung chooses to lock their bootloaders. Such a waste to have a powerful phone like an S7 but not flash a ROM on it. It's feeling more like I'm gonna have to go with a Nexus
[Galaxy Tab S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jpatalia:
the att version of SM-T807a seems to reached a dead end.

having reached the rooted LP stage

I am sure there are many like me hoping to give a new lease of life.

OBJECTIVE:

Get a new snappier ROOTED Android version

rooted is necessary for ad free and clean OS

ok with the COLLATERAL DAMAGE:

loosing the capability for 4g LTE

RESULT:

a WI-FI only tab in the worse case scenario

I wonder if this is possible

=============================================================================================

can i just

1) install the 805 mm rom on 807a (OK if i loose 4G)

2) install the 807t mm rom ( as long as wifi works)
