I just wanted to point out (from the Changelog) that the IMDB-MOD was removed here to launch it on its own dedicated thread as follows.

[APP][TOOL][5.0+]IMDb (MOD) by Ibuprophen

I'm curious as to how it does there and, If it goes well, I'll be doing the same for others as well.

Thanks a Bunch! :)

I appreciate your hard work you put Mods all these apps, but as wrote you in other thread, if you wanna be the king of the Mod do Facebook Mod (Ad-Free)..
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
Thank you very much for your feedback. My days of being a hero is tied to my daughter... LOL!

I'll provide my personal opinion to your question but, please keep in mind (as a suggestion/recommendation) that spamming the same question on multiple threads (at approximately the same time of day) is frowned upon and, if a Moderator notices it, can just cause unwanted attention.

To be honest, I don't like any of the Official Facebook Apps myself (and haven't used any of them in a very long time either). :eek:

I prefer using one of the many Facebook Wrapper App's available on the forum and/or on the Google Play Store.

I've been using the following (Pro version) app for quite some time and I do like it very much...

Simple for Facebook (Free) - Google Play Store

Simple for Facebook (Pro) - Google Play Store

... This is without stating that any of the other ones out there are any better or worse than that one.

I prefer to stick with what works for me and, unless I absolutely had to, don't plan on using another one.

Sorry about this... I hope you find what you're looking for. :thumbup:

Good Luck! :D

Just an FYI...

I'm actually in the process of getting a DevDB Thread going for the Plex, Tapatalk and APKPure.

Regarding the MacroDroid...

I'm still debating (with myself) about doing one for the MacroDroid as I am looking to discontinue my own personal use of this app since I haven't really been using it much at all.

I've also taken under consideration that, with the lack of support from the non beta version of MacroDroid (specifically on the XDA Forum), I just don't want to open up one for the beta and it turning into a support thread magnet for the both as I know how to basically use it but, am not enough of an expert to take on this type of supporting role without being the original developer.

I'm also working to launch a DevDB thread for the ClaRetoX2, APK-ZIP Signer and the Edison FlashLight apps as well.

The Shader Reloaded isn't ready enough to officially launch it as being stable and I may be scrapping (aka EOL) the Open JDK app since there's really not much of a want, need or interest for it to begin with as it was just a simple project that I had developed for practice quite some time ago.

Please let me know if you have any questions and such as I'm still around... :thumbup:

Thanks a Bunch! :)

I plan to launch the APKPure Mod thread sometime soon but, unfortunately, I'm ending the MacroDroid Beta Mod since I recently stopped using/needed it myself.

Sorry MacroDroid fans... :(

I'm also planning to launch a few of my personal developments as well on a new thread of their own sometime soon.

I just need to begin scrubbing, stopping, launching, etc... as I'm thinning myself out a bit too thin.

To be honest... I've always placed my personal developments above the modified ones. I do hope you understand where I'm coming from with this.

Thank you all very much and I'll keep everyone posted when I can. :thumbup:

The following thread was just launched with a newer update to the last build (no need to uninstall the last modded version).

[APP][TOOL][4.1+]APKPure (MOD)[ARM] by Ibuprophen

Even though it's removed here, I'm just keeping the MacroDroid Beta app available on the file host for a while since it's still the most recent one released. I don't plan to remove it, at least, till sometime after the developers update it again.

I'm still working on those personal developments I've mentioned recently for a dedicated thread.

Solely out of curiosity...

Would anyone be interested in trying a modified "Samsung Galaxy Store" app?

I think it just might work on most/all devices and the advertising was disabled/removed as well.

I just want to see if there's any interest in it as well as working for other Non-Samsung devices.

Thanks a bunch! :)

err on the side of kindness
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
Thank you for your feedback! :)

I'm kinda tied up a bit with a few other items and will definitely take another look at it and get back to you.

1 quick question... Does this happen for any download (like a handful of random ones) or is it specific to only a certain app or apps from a developer?

I'm going to set aside the "Modified Samsung Galaxy Store" project tentatively/permanently until further notice.

***** CLOSING ANNOUNCEMENT *****​

This was a type of experimental project thread for the various Modified apps as well as my personal developments.

I believe that it had worked out fairly well for the most part. Those modified apps that worked out got their own threads. Regarding my personal developments, they had also worked out as well and a few of them will be getting their own threads (with The ClaRetoX2 Forum App being the first one amongst them).

Some are just not ready yet for a dedicated thread of their own with 1 or 2 that may not be continued at all.

I still plan to keep what personal developments that are still listed here. As time progresses, they will be removed accordingly as dedicated threads are created for them. Those few that doesn't get a dedicated thread will likely remain (unsupported) as some individuals are still using them.

I'm not sure, at this point in time, if/when I'll use/open this thread again but, I may do so if/when I have some apps (personal & modified) that requires some Alpha/Beta Testing in the future.

I would like to thank EVERYONE for their time, patience, understanding, feedback and especially your support for the projects you enjoyed here.

I hope to see you enjoy my current and future apps & mods threads I currently have and those to come.

My deepest apologies but, I've been placed in a dilemma that forced me to discontinue all MOD apps, removing them all from the AFH Server and will no longer be providing/maintaining them effective immediately.

Several weeks ago Samsung released Night Mode for the whole Galaxy S10 series. Today they released Night Mode for the Galaxy S9 series. Any chance at all that the Galaxy Note 8 will get it?

[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] piskr:
What do you want to configure? Please, describe your problem. Can you add your card?

A month ago I had a problem with nfc. Even though my cards were accepted I couldn't make a payment. The issue occurred because of metal ring I put on camera for protection. Removing the ring solved my problem.

Do you have a case with metal adds?
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] basongwe:
No, I've the included case. I can add cards but Google keeps saying that it can't configure NFC (even if its activated and set by default)
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] piskr:
If it's Google then it probably says that you can't use the card in stores not that you can't configure NFC.

App tries to contact my bank, and says can't configure nfc
[Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers] piskr:
Than it's not Google, which blocks it, it's probably Huawei. You can prove it easily: install Safety. Net and install any app which can read nfc tag. Try Safety. Net and you should pass. Then try to read any nfc tag and it should be read.

If you don't have nfc tag, install app which can read contactless credit card and try with this.

When you'd eliminate all other reasons, the only one remained is Huawei - stock room. It blocks any request regarding Gpay to bank because it is tuned to its own payment system.

Root phone with magisk, install freeza's modified rom and you'll have Gpay operational.

[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Navalier:
I have the H910 version of the LG V20 and I want to make my backup into a rom so I can restore it easily, Can anyone give me instructions on how to do this?:confused:
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:
Seems like I already answered this but here goes

download the stock rom 10q or 20g (links are in my signature)

replace all the files in the zip with the ones you want to flash (your backup)

file names must be the same so overwrite the files in the zip

save the zip when your done and theirs your backup.

note your backup most likely has _comX on the end of each file name

this must be removed before you copy them to the zip

so boot_com3 becomes boot

recovery_com3 becomes recovery and so on
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] Navalier:
Thanks! I really appreciate it.
[LG V20 Questions & Answers] clsA:
if I were doing one for myself I would add the following files to the rom

fsc

fsg

misc

modemst1

modemst2

if you do add these you'll have to edit the META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

with a notepad++ app and save it

you'll see how the script works when you open it

to do the edit

package_extract_file("aboot", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/aboot");

you just replace the word aboot with fsc in both places in the script

just use copy and paste and replace the words with you new files names

package_extract_file("modemst2", "/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/modemst2");

save it - zip it - and test it (you will loose root by flashing these)

So I have had this tablet for years now and I have never upgraded it's software (It is currently on 5.0.2). Since I rooted it, I can not upgrade it through the settings build-in system (Neither I am sure if I should).

I have a few questions :

1. Should I even upgrade it ?

2. Will I lose any data if I do ?

3. (If answer to 2. is yes) Is there any way to save my data (I am mostly interested in whatsapp messages and all of my google accounts).

4. Will my tablet run faster/slower or the same as before ?

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sawfly:
Hello!

I've got Sharp Aquos XX3 mini 603SH with Android 7 and pre-installed SoftBank software, but I tried to find a newer version of firmware.

There are two ways of upgrade: to recieve a new version by wi-fi in Japan and download a custom rom.

The first one is out there: (try to search "AQUOS Xx3 miniをAndroid™ 8.0 にアップデートできます", unfortunately I can't post links, I'm newbie here :o )

I can't recieve the wi-fi update because the phone requests an original USIM with contract, but the phone is unlocked.

The second way is not easier because I can't find anywhere where can I download a custom rom.

I've found just several sites where the update is mentioned: sharp developers (search "sharp developers Aquos Xx3 mini Oreo LineageOS 15 Mod") and Dian Ariyanto's blog (search "POSTS ABOUT SHARP AQUOS XX3 MINI Dian Ariyanto").

According to these sources I need TWRP, GAPPS and ROM, but I can't download them from anywhere.

So maybe someone got this files or straight links to it, or knows another way how to update this device? :confused:

Will be thankful for any help :fingers-crossed:

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Questions & Answers] bofbaz:
I am experiencing a strange behaviour with Global Stock ROM 9.6.5 and Android Auto.

When I connect the phone to the head unit (VW Composition Media), it takes up to 4 minutes until it recognizes the phone and I do not have another option to start it manually.

I just reset my Mi 8 totally and used Google Experience ROM before and had no problems with Android Auto - except the flickering which can be solved changing some options in developer options.

So this brings me to the fact that this delayed start must have something to do with the stock ROM.

I already deactivated any power saving options in Android for AA.

Any ideas of what I can do here?

Thanks!

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] thrash magazine:
Hello all,

I am not looking at how to revert to a stock ROM or anything. I just wanted to know what people have had luck with returning their device to HTC? I have an AT&T Tilt, but the front buttons are getting really loose, they slide all over the place now. Because of this, they are also unresponsive some times. I was just wondering what HTC does? Do they replace the unit, fix the front buttons, are you without a phone for awhile? Do they not do anything?

Just wondering what peoples experiences are. Does HTC even deal with the Tilt returns, since AT&T doesn't do warranty's? I should be covered, I bought it in November.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] RizwanKhan:
i think even if you buy from att there is still a year warranty on it because i know alltheway and few other members on here returned their phones and got either new or refurbished devices back from att. I know att does not sell insurance for tilt but warranty you still have i believe :)

Has anyone else experienced more phone related battery drain after the recent UI update? It's not using alot of battery or anything, but I do see the symbol on the phone were Samsung accessory service is in use way more often now. And prior to update, the plug-in never registered at all in my battery usage. So basically it would use under 1% battery for the entire battery cycle. Now, it uses 2-3% per cycle and I've done nothing different with the phone. Has anyone else noticed this and know how to fix it?
