[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] pr0necr0:
I've come back to Android after being on iOS for the past 2 or so years. Bought an S8+. With the S8 and S8+ rooted, I'm wondering if I should go about it. I don't like the 80% battery max that comes with it, or that there is no official Xposed support. Im mainly looking for a system wide adblock (which I dont believe I can do without Xposed(?)). Is there any reason you guys would recommend rooting, other than debloat? What else am I missing/forgetting?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] dalanik:
Nope, you don't need root if you don't want to mod your system; ad blocker is available without root, just google "adhell 2". This is the 1st phone that I don't have rooted since I don't need it - I can do 90% of the stuff without root. I.e. you can't turn data off from Tasker without root. One of the things I miss. Also, find Knox very usefull - which is lost after root. Just my opinion though.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] ChanceGPM:
You can get adblocking with "AdHell" or "Disconnect for samsung browser" from plays store.

You can theme you device with Substratum or from this thread https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/substratum-inversion-ui-overlay-overlays-t3604341 or the inbuilt theme store.

You disable any system app you like with Package Disabler Pro.

You can get Xposed-like tweaks from this thread: https://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/mods-small-collection-tweaks-t3657119.

Really no point in rooting these days!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] Araltd:
My S8+ is rooted right now, and I'm on the fence about going back to non-root. If ad blocking is your main concert there are SEVERAL no-root options. I used Disconnect for Samsung (google it, you'll find an APK somewhere) that is a system wide ad block that does allow some ad's... Other ad block methods are Ad Hell, AdGuard, Block This - and I'm sure there are many others... they essentially create a VPN on the device and route all traffic through the VPN and block the things you wouldn't want.

The issue with the bootloader locked rooting methods is they are based on the ENG BOOT kernel which is designed for debugging/testing/repair etc... so you ABSOLUTELY get a performance hit... and a battery hit. The S8+ is so fast the performance hit isn't nearly as bad as it was on the S7E, the battery hit is another story... 80% and I don't think it "stops" charging at 80 - maybe just me? but my phone is warm in the morning charging wired or wirelessly. Again, could be just me. YMMV.

Not to take anything away from the guys who worked hard on getting the root method released. They are awesome and have done a great job - they deserve all the praise in the community they can get. But without TWRP and custom roms, and the ability to create those types or rom's - root isn't quite the same.... AGAIN THAT COULD BE JUST ME! YMMV!
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] aulamens:
Can rooting boost protection and security?

I have a question about rooting.

All my previous 5 - 6 android smartphones were rooted by me.

The main reason for rooting was to improve security and confidence in the phone - good firewall, de -bloating, control of privilegies

But now with S8+ I am having second thought about if rooting really protects vs exposes.

1) Lots of original protection features will be gone after rooting, like DM-verity

2) Automated system updates and therefore related security patches will be gone too. I am not a big fan of regular manual downloads and updates. So my once rooted system will become dated soon.

Am I taking it right?

Do a good firewall and control of priviligies outweigth the new risks that rooting could bring?

I do a lot of important things on my phone, so the protection is number the #1 thing for me.

Thanks for you thoughts

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
How do you make a backup and restore it? With inbuilt whatsapp chat backup local/gdrive? I don't restore any backup when changing roms. Only restore the titanium backup of whatsapp and data, cause the Chat and WhatsApp media is stored in internal SD card whatsapp folder and won't get deleted cause its not wiped unless you wipe internal media too!

You just make a backup of the app with titanium backup, uninstall and restore. Also try to wipe cache and art within twrp. You can copy the whole whatsapp folder to your computer and (if backed up the whole internal memory too) wipe internal SD card.

There are many possibilities to solve the issue maybe...

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Discussion] vooks:
I've been searching and I have come empty.

I bought this pre owned S7 G935FD and I rooted,flashed twrp and Magisk. Was trying to make FlyGPs a system app and I succeeded but it still required me to toggle Mock locations at Developer Options. Toggling this is detected by PoGo and toggling it off makes FlyGPS useless.

That's how I ended up with developer options off.

I went on to delete the app manually from the system app and then decided to reboot just to see if it was gone.

I ended up with a brick throwing in dm-verity error. At this point I should have flashed the verity zip through twrp but instead I flashed stock rom giving away my precious twrp.

Now i have lost twrp and I have dm-verity error.

My request to you dear members is a solution. How do I remove FRP lock from recovery without booting because all methods i have include boot yet i can't boot because of verity?

Here you have some fresh news. Hope we will get it working.

HI:

*

Yes, we can switch to API2 by modifying some of codes, but here is the problem,

We can’t guarantee the stability of camera API2 right now.

We have implemented 30+ features on API1 to provide competitive camera experience,

and we can make sure that camera can perfectly run for hundreds of hours in stability test and pressure test.

But for Camera API2, the lunch time for ZUK Z2 is much earlier than Redmi note 4.

We tried to deploy API2 but failed since the platform baseline is not stabile enough to deliver to user,

It have many stability issues and even CTS issue.

*

We are trying to bring Camera API2 next, but the timetable is uncertain for now.

You can get get Qualcomm source code in theory, but I’m not sure how it works.

[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Dishe:
So I'm having trouble deciding between the 6x and the 8. I'm coming from a Nextbit Robin with a Snapdragon 808 and 3GB of RAM. I use NFC to bump to my camera, but I can live without it if it saves me enough money.

I'm gathering that the 6X display isn't quite as nice as the honor 8's (density, lack of oleophobic, etc), but otherwise how is the performance and what made you pick the budget version over the more expensive "flagship" 8? I must admit, one of my big hesitations is EMUI- I'm a fan of stock Android, and many of my touchwiz etc devices have been flashed to CM/OmniRom/Lineage OS, etc to get the original Android feel back. Heck, even my Nextbit robin which is quite stock out of the box aside from a custom launcher, is now running OmniRom with more-or-less weekly updates that are surprisingly stable. Which of the two phones have more stock-like custom roms available?

I'd think the 8, but I'm seeing a lot of unfinished WIPs Anything stable enough for daily driver on the Honor or 6x?
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] RedSkull23:
Hi, the performance of this phone fits well with an high usage, i came from a dead S4 Mini on this phone due to the report price/quality and I'm very satisfied; it never gets hot, so the ram is well managed by the SoC and camera quality is awesome, for example; the only thing that suffers on devices with Huawei's Kirin processors, for as much they can handle the phone well, is a strong development community behind. We have a team working on custom Roms, but as you could imagine it can't be compared to the strength of devices powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon processors, wide open to third-party development, and so supported by many more teams of developers. Huawei released sources for Honor 8 and 6X too, but there are still some known bugs on cooked roms; like the possibility to use the stock Huawei camera app, that gives his best on pictures results. Or HwComposer bug, that have an impact on UI performances making it laggy. Looks like other developers aren't interested in working with Kirin processors at the moment. Aside this, i dunno if custom ROMs situation at the moment is better on 6X or 8 because i own a 6X and i know a few about honor 8, but not the state of rom development. It should be better on 8 at the moment if I'm not wrong, but bugs mentioned above are still present. If you mind to have a strong mid-range phone at a good price, go for 6X. If you want some more, go for 8 :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Dishe:
Yeah, the unique dual-sensor camera is something I'm concerned about as I'm sure that isn't even close to standardized, so I was thinking it would probably only work properly on the original factory firmware. Camera is a pretty significant part of the decision process on this phone, so having to choose between clean Google UI without any unexpected quirks (I've heard about EMUI's power management aggressively closing background apps among other things), or having that beautiful camera work properly.

With all due respect, coming from the S4 Mini this must have been a huge upgrade for you! The s4 mini didn't even have 2GB of ram if I recall correctly, and very underpowered dual core CPU. I'm coming from a Snapdragon flagship-class chip with 3GB. :)
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] Dishe:
[double post by accident]
[Honor 6X Questions & Answers] RedSkull23:
I agree with you, to me camera is an important thing too to keep in mind while choosing a device. Here surely you wouldn't make a wrong step, I am very satisfied by the camera that this phone is carrying with him. EMUI's background killer instinct is adjustable however :cool: it let you choose which apps kill or not, something similar to Greenify.

Regarding my old Sammy, it's bad that it just hard-broke one day from another due to a simple call received. I answered, and then it suddenly shut off... Forever. I've tried a lot of stuff, nothing worked. It's a stone now. I'm sure that this is exactly a programmed obsolescence by Samsung, especially after the hundreds, or better, thousands of help threads that I've seen appearing both on XDA and other tech forums in the same splice of time. You're right it had 1,5GB of ram, it has been a great jump of performances indeed. Which phone you have anyway?
