Coolest stuff to do with a rooted phone? (locked BL) - Xperia Play General

Just rooted my R800x phone (HUGE thanks to those who developed the method to root the r800x, you guys kick so much ayse!) and I'm looking for some awesome things to do now that I'm rooted. Already have Barnacle Wifi tether, along with Sixaxis controller (I know we don't need it on an XPlay, but it's still totally awesome to have), and removed some Verizon bloatware BS.
Please give some suggestions, it will be much appreciated! I'm sure there have been more people like me who recently rooted that aren't up to date on this whole rooting thing.

My favourites are:
Juice Defender - Save battery
ASTRO File Manager - Access OS files and install 3rd party .apk's
AdAway - Remove ads from free apps
Chainfire3D - Install drivers for other devices
Quick Boot - Gives you a reboot function and easy access to your bootloader
MarketEnabler - Lets you change your region so you can download apps not normally available where you are
SlideME - Third party marketplace with access to apps disallowed by Google
And of course a ridiculous number of emulators.

Quick and easy access to the shell with root is great.
Modification/replacement/addition to the system to utilize more features than stock.
Titanium Backup -backup/uninstall/freeze any apk on the system

Have Astro and the ever amazing emulators, but everything else you mentioned sounds pretty sweet.

Not quite sure what the first two mean, but TB is excellent!

I agree with much of what others have said, particularly Titanium Backup (the pro version is definitely worth it).
I would add the following:
LBE Privacy Guide - block any application from accessing your contacts, sending SMS, etc. After installing, I was amazed how many apps were accessing things in the background.
Wireless tether - tether with bluetooth rather than Wifi (much more battery efficient)
Make the home button stop activating the screen (this has saved me a lot of battery life)

The only reason I didn't mention Ti Backup is because I assumed it was a given that it's the greatest app ever. Worth every penny for the paid version.

Yeah, I have the Pro version & I won't stop using ever.
I also have the donate version of the ROM Manager for Clockwork Mod but I can't use it with the R800x until a method to unlock the bootloader is unvailable. It was very useful when I had a Samsung Fascinate.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, keep em coming if you have more! I got a few of them and they're really cool so far! Anyone know if the touchpads can be used in any ps1 emulators? I have the latest FPse, but it doesn't seem to let me use the analog pads...someone needs to fix this and fast!

Yeah just use the psxperia method, it basically injecting you custom games into sonys emulator (which has touchpad support). I made a video tutorial here if you wanna know how to do it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaZuKZQoBwA
I dont think it work on 2.3.4 though, thats why im not updating yet.

Have most everything that has been posted. link2sd is one I use quite a bit also. R800x rooted.

Yeh agree, LBE is really good. Surprising how many apps are interested in your current location!

paid apps in denmark

hello
I can't find it any where so i need to ask, is there any way to get paid apps on my desire, when i can't download paid apps from market ?
Fisken -
I am in Denmark too. I use Marketenabler and so I can fake my provider as T -Mobil (US), and see both paid and free apps.
Sent from my HTC Hero using Tapatalk
i can't install that, is that because i need to root it first ?

Yes.
Another easy solution is to use a sim card from another country where paid Android applications is possible. I have tried with an austrian sim card in Denmark without problems. Just download the applications using WiFi.
Unfortunately yes. It needs root privilege.
Sent from my HTC Hero using Tapatalk
There's a third way that requires neither root nor foreign sim. It does require that you install Android SDK on you computer, and it's a bit of a hassle to set up the first time, but once you've done that, you have easy access to paid apps. It's what I used before I rooted, and it worked like a charm.
It's too complicated for me to remember off hand, and I'm a new user so apparently I can't post links, but try googling "paid apps i emulator" or "paid apps i telefonen"; it's the top search result for me. *
(it's in Swedish, but being Danish you should have little difficulties with that; sorry non-Scandinavians - try googling key words... Although we're probably pretty much the only ones left without paid apps in Market by now
* If it doesn't work, let me now, and maybe I'll just post the whole damn thing right here (if I can get the author's permission).
move to USA or something is another solution LOL.
ok I think the safest way for you to do this is buy a sim from a country that has market enabled. Rooting your phone just to be able to buy apps is a bit risky. Installing the SDK might be the cheapest solution tbh. And you just cant brick your pc doing that
I was able to install the SDK, but I failed to grasp how to install market.

Not sure what you mean; you don't "install" Market per se...
Once you've installed SDK on your PC, you create an AVD (Android Virtual Device), which is basically an Android emulator on your PC. In this emulator you can buy whatever you want from Market, and then push (or copy) it to your actual phone.
Are you following a guide? If so, which, and how far have you gotten?

Dear eham, it seems to be a good workaround for me (for I don't wanna risk rooting and dont wanna change to sim card too frequently), just a few questions to ask about the emulator method.
would I still be able to update the paid apps if I download the paid apps through emulator? and will I be able to install it back if I flash my phone?
thx

"Dear eham"? why so formal
The answers are yes and yes.
You own the app (it's tied to your google account), so it's yours to update or whatever, but as long as you're unrooted you will have to do it in the emulator (as you can't access the paid app's Market page on your phone), and then push the updated .apk to your phone, replacing the old one. Be sure to add an SD-card to your emulator, and use ASTRO in your emu-phone to backup your apps to it as your emu-phone will have the same ****ty amount of internal memory as your real phone (if it's anything like mine .
And yes. Use ASTRO (or any app backup.. app) to also backup your apps to your real SD and/or your PC, and you can reinstall them whenever you want.

Very well said, Thx mate! I'll go try it out! Really wanna support paid apps! Anyone got an idea when will Google bring paid apps to other countries or Paypal for paid apps? It's non-sense for me in HK to be able to buy N1 though Google checkout and not able to buy paid apps.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
You're welcome
Btw, you don't have paid apps in HK?! That surprised me, I thought for sure you did.
But yeah, I second the question. What's the damn holdup, Google? Anyone got the scoop?
The last I heard (for Sweden) was January 2010. I'm starting to think that's not gonna happen...
i had marketenabler for 2.1 but upgrading to 2.2 stops the program from working unfortunately... =/

It didn't only surprised you mate, you shocked me as well when Iphone's app store has already been working in HK since like 2-3 years ago? Man!
well, one more thing to ask, Google had just push out the newest SDK, I am using it for the workaround, but seems it uses 1.6 for the emulator, could I use 2.2 (or at least 2.1) instead so that I could install my apps onto the SD card?
besides, how could I push .apk to my phone? basically how could I find the stuff on SD on my emulator?
Like I said in an earlier post, I went and rooted my phone, so I haven't used the SDK method in a while, and I couldn't really tell you if you could use 2.2 or not. I see no harm in trying, but I'm going to leave the answer up to someone who might know a little better.
But really, why would you? Maybe I'm missing something, but once you've pushed/saved, and backed up, the apps, you don't really need them on the AVD (emu-phone) anymore, so if you're running low on memory just uninstall as needed. You've paid for them, so you can always reinstall from Market if you ever feel the need.
Not entirely sure what mean by the last part. If you mean how do you push the files that you moved to SD using App2SD, I don't know. I don't have 2.2 or A2SD, so again I'm going to have to leave that for someone else to answer. Personally, I probably wouldn't bother with a 2.2 AVD as I see no real benefit, but hey, that's me.
So to reiterate: Use 1.6.

Dear eham (I really have to be this formal to express my appreciation )
finally got all things sorted out and successfully purchased 1 app and pushed to my phone (automatically through Android market), finally I can show my appreciation to the apps developers!
well, even though I can now get paid apps, being a non-root user with 2.1, I still have to wait for the official Froyo update from HTC to further enjoy apps (my memory is certainly full just after the 2nd day I bought my Desire).
anyway, great great help from xda!
Glad I could help

What apps in FolioMod

I thought we might take a poll, on which apps you would like have included and which should be left out.
im thinking that it needs a cleanup, so why not ask those that uses it.
tether and net
A tether to a winmo 6.5 with 3g. And.application to connect wan tablet to lan pc
I would get rid of everything that can easily be downloaded by the Market. Maybe even the Toshiba stuff if there are free downloadable apps that do the job too.
I think the best is, a standard android version with all the google app's.
Opera, file exploler, music/movie app's etc can easily be downloaded from the market.

no no.. only those downloadable from Market will be removed, but so far looks like they stay
those would normally be
Youtube , Gmail , Maps , Googlevoice , Twitter, facebook , streetview and such..
the GoogleApps framework services would still remain..
Adding FolioWidget will add a lot of pain for future updates
but glad to see this mod going this far
I don't need any toshiba apps, so they can go out.
For all the other things I'd like to see some basic apps included (FileManager, YouTube, FolioWidget).
Just make sure that these are not system apps and can be uninstalled/exchanged painless.
Titanium backup seems to be able to remove system apps, so maybe it is moot. I prefer not to have any apps installed which the market then wishes to update but can't (as currently DocsToGo showed before I un-installed). The only must-haves are things which can't be got from the market (unless they are packaged as a separate update, helping to keep the filesize down)
Titanium Backup
I think Titanium Backup _is_a_must_. Just think on a rom update with it preinstalled:
1. Do backup
2. Flash new rom
3. Do Restore
And everyone has his prefs, apps, etc., woking in a snap.
I think Titanium backup and a terminal emulator should be good ideas.
if you want to make everyone happy, you should include every single app in the market
but if you want a functional rom, stick with the basics.
as few system apps as possible, since it's easier to both remove and update them that way.
and just include apps with functionality that everyone needs. like a file explorer, the gApps naturally, flash and morelocale let the poll do it's thing and we'll see.
i personally think the folio stock apps are mere crap.
Thanks for your job Dexter...

Titanium Back Up (or a similar) which allows to backup / restore applications provided they can be reinstalled from a version to another...

- Titanium Backup or similar
- VLC instead of the Toshiba Player (when available)

[Apps] for I'm Watch Smartwatch

I started on the wrong foot, but finally found that it likes Android 1.6 Apps!
- Angry Birds!!!!!! (with music and usable, albeit, it just takes a little time to Start just Once Initially, the everything is quite normalish after initial start..... But the initial Splash screen looks so cool on the smartwatch it is worth the wait).
- Dolphin Browser
- Opera Mini Browser
Hints:
- To download anything in Opera Mini, select the DCIM folder, it seems it does not like to download on initial root. Warning, it is not fast downloading.
- When typing remember that it is a good idea that when typing in the small keyboard, that if you are fast, and keep pressing a key and notice it was not the one you intended, before releasing the key, if you do it fast enough, you can move your finger towards the correct key before releasing your finger. This is much faster than having to delete a wrong entered letter. If you keep pressing and fail to move fast, it would suggest alternative based on the wrong letter and you can no longer move to next, but if you click elsewhere, it won't type the wrong letter.
- Dolphin Browser is great because you can define shortcuts for common menus (remember you don't have a menu key), with its gestures. I made a gesture for settings and other to go to downloads and for full screen!
More Apps come!!
Please Share your Apps!!!
More Apps!
- Aptoid works quite fine to install new apps.
- Backgammon Free
- Bazooka Rabbit works! (albeit, not all the screen appears, but it is playable).
- ES File Explorer
- .... more to try ...

I'd be interested to see how some apps work compared to my Motoactv. So some examples would be emulators such as gbcoid, snesoid and n64oid. Maybe some android games such as Hill Climb, and Hardest Game Ever. Apps, I dunno, maybe root explorer (or just explorer), a browser (I use boat browser mini), and mxplayer playing a video would be cool to see. Everything but the emulators I just got off the Google Play store. If you can't access the store on the I'm Watch yet I remember being able to take apps off my phone. Just download the app on your phone, then use a file manager to browse to /data/app/, then send it to your computer (I use bluetooth). I can send you the emulator apk's, just PM me your e-mail.
Use bluestack make it easier to grab the apk and download multiple apps at the same time,
Games or apps compatible with android 1.6 will have a much better chance of working...
Good info
apps
Got some more apps that seem to work on the i'm watch after the 2.1.2 adb update
go jkeyboard works
mobicalc
advanced task killer
voice search kinda works, cant find netwrok connection. would like someone to get that working.
dropbox works
graffiti pro keyboard works
dolphin browser works
gesture search
but there arent many people who are rooting and or doing things for the watch,. So if you can give me any ideas as to what to do to it or how I'd appreciate it,. Such as unlocking the bootloader
What I'm finding is that anything where you can draw or speak is more useful for this watch.\
rooting with super on click was the best way of doing it honestly .
Ok so I found a useful group of apks that make customization something a greater thing.
email me @ [email protected]
for the link. (don't have enough posts for links)
Thanks!
There is a new ADB version out. The last was 2.1.2 but now there is a 2.2.0 which I am going to update to now and attempt to see if it changes much.
Heres hoping.
how do you install those apps on the watch , i just got me a i'm watch 2 weeks ago and this sounds interesting:good:

Well theres two ways to do it.
1. you can do the whole rooting process by getting the ADB software from imwatch and using super one click to root it then install it through a sideload manager.
2. you can download all the apks in there and go to the im market and get Sideload Manager app from there. Then you'd put the apks in the DCIM folder and go through the Sideload Manager and install it that way.
Note: You should disconnect from the pc when trying to install through sideload manager app for option two.

It's still pretty buggy. But from the things I've seen android phones have apps that are capable of handling and changing the volume and etc on there.

[Q] How can I install non-Ouya apps?

Yesterday I received this little cube. I want to know how to install non-market apps such as Chrome and XBMC(android version not ouya exclusive version). Please advice.
By the way, do I need to root Ouya?
I did this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2347214
It works perfectly, use xbmc (the version for ouya) connected to the computer in my home where all my media is stored.
You can install ESFile Explorer, sideload apps and more.

I rooted mine (I suppose old habit) and flashed StockPlus 519r2 for good measure - it is NOT mandatory, but offers some added flexibility (GPU clock control, easier sideloading, Titanium backup).
While not super complicated, the procedure to load CWM and a ROM is a bit trickier than on other devices (perfect example is my Nexus 4 with Wugfresh Root Toolkit - graphical interface and worry-free operation).
But like I said, you'll be just fine loading ES FileMgr and then sideloading from flash. Several sites offer browser links to do it. ouyafree.webs.com is just one of them (no, it's not mine ). Same info is available in these forums too.
I have installed Chrome browser but is it not working OK. It turn off as soon as it is opened. Actually, the Opera dev version started to fail with the same problem after Chroe was installed. So, I don't know if all the Android apps will work on Ouya.

Most def NOT all apps work on Ouya - remember we're bypassing the Google Play hardware check that would prevent apps to install if the dev did not consider a certain platform.
I even ended up a couple of times installing an app on a tablet, then taking a Titanium backup, move it to Ouya and "restore" it. Example of this are apps that require a swipe to move through initial demo screens before actually launching (Feedly...)

Definitely. Google Play shoulda been standard on Ouya, IMO. Uploading APKs to Dropbox was also a pretty easy method before I went the Play route

[Q] Benefits of rooting the MOJO.

I'm thinking of purchasing a MOJO for one of my family members, and would like to know the benefits of rooting the system. Also, are there many risks involved with rooting?
Thanks.
Hi,
Rooting the MOJO will allow you to download all apps from the Google Play Store. That was the primary reason I rooted mine (and the reason the folks at Mad Catz say to do so ).
The number of apps you can download is very limited unless you do so. It is not necessary, but helpful.
That being said, rooting also allows you to make your device much more useful (tweaking, removing unwanted system apps, etc...).
I haven't had any issue with mine since I did the rooting. You can always unroot!
In sum, if you want the person to enjoy the thousands--if not millions-- of apps in the Play Store, rooting is the solution.

Hi
Rooting is like using Android with admin rights.. that's all.
So you can do much more ie, if you want a "software" way of shutdown or rebooting it .
risks... you could delete/change something that you shouldn't and it wont boot :/
You can control what apps get Super User rights, so you can lock it down.
You can even root it without the USB cable via the towel root apk.
Hi!
Rooting the Mojo is very easy and safe when you follow the instructions thoughtfully and it opens up lot of potential. After rooting you can
hide the bottom bar when you want to play games or watch videos in fullscreen. See GMD Auto Hide Soft Keys.
move app data and/or OBB files to your external SD card to be able to install lot of and/or large games. See FolderMount and the video tutorial.
allow or deny internet access per app without routing your traffic through a third-party proxy server. See AFWall+.
block in-app ads. See AdBlock Plus.

Its an apk, google it, sideload it.
It wont fix the google play store issue, lack of compatiablity, although the latest firmware has better comparability.
Besides market helper is way better, with the stock rom.
If you upgrade to CM12, market helper doesn't work, well at least for me it didn't.
No, once your rooted, your rooted until you reinstall a rom.
