has some way to use screen mirroring in j7?

3GB RAM
is way better than the ordinary J7

Specs sounds awesome
but lets see how it works on hand

I picked this one up for my dad to use with t-mobile.
It's a nice phone , especially for the price. Mine only has 2 gb of ram and 3000ma battery though.
Maybe they make different versions. All I know is it works well for my dad.

Those who are interested to debloat their J7 device on maximum level (without any fc issues) can try flashing zip from here: (download v2 zip) flash it in twrp recovery, your device must be rooted.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...hmallow-6-0-x-super-debloater-t3319854/page10
Once you download this zip, open zip normally and drag updater script on your desktop. Open it in notepad++ and edit/rename script names of apps which you wants to keep or change with apps names which you wants to remove or you can delete lines of scripts of apps which you wants to keep in your device. Save script, drag it in zip folder and replace updater script in that zip folder. Move it to your device internal or sdcard destination and flash in twrp recovery. My system shows 1.41GB free space. And there's csc tweaks added by @TENN3R which i found useful too. But do it all if you know why you are willing to do it what you are doing Or else I'm not responsible if anything wrong happens or you wanna break your mobile.
It worked for me (SM-J710GN) and so hopefully it will work for all or most of J7 devices, although it was made for S6 device. Thanks to @TENN3R for his amazing work.

A3 multi-window (?)

After scanning through the play store to see if I could find an app for multi-window that didn't require exposed(yes, I am aware it does) I came accross an app that is used to enable and disable multi-window on the s6 and its siblings. I used it and had this come into my quick settings?? Is there a way we can actually get this working, as it seems it has some basic level of support for multi window? I have no idea how to post screenshots on mobile but if you can help me with that I'll post some. Samsung Galaxy A3 - SM-A300FU
Bro is multi window available in Samsung A3 6 ive searched everywhere in the phone .....but didn't found tried many apps but not working...... Any suggestions.....
---------- Post added at 06:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:15 PM ----------
But split screen (multi window) is there in A5 and A7 I've checked but even after updating my A3 to nougat I didn't got the split screen........
It isn't in the default A3-6 Nougat but there are many custom ROMs here that you can install with multiwindow enabled. Try Advanced 3 ROM, or, even better, Revolution OS for A310-x.
There are also lots of MM versions with MW ported, again, Adv 3 and ENIGMA v1-v8, to name a couple.
If you don't want to install a custom ROM for any reason, try an app called Taskbar, available on the Play Store, it uses your Recent Apps window space as a multiwindow staging area that you can customise very nicely, without root on Lollipop and above. Accessibility service is required.
From my A310f using Revolution OS v3.1...

Coolpad Cool S1 same as LeEco Le Pro3?

Has anyone heard of the Coolpad Cool s1? It appears to be the same exact phone as the Le Pro3.

Yes
LeEco bought Coolpad a while back I think so Coolpad is part of LeEco. Coolpad S1 (have headphone 3.5mm jack) price is about $400 so a bit more expensive than Le Pro 3.
I have made some researches on both devices and these are the differences that I found between Le Pro3 x720 & Cool Changer S1:
1. Pro3 has NFC while S1 doesn't.
2. Cool S1 has much better speakers made by Harman Kardon.
3. Pro3 display is protected by Gorilla Glass 3.
4. Cool S1 display is 85% NTSC while Pro3 is 80% NTSC.
5. Pro3 seems to have a bit stronger body and a better build quality.
5. In Cool S1 the black border is almost removed and also it has a more ergonomic body.
6. There is no development on Coolpad phones made by LeEco. (But I'm not sure if Pro3 ROMs or kernels are compatible with Cool S1 or not)
7. Cool S1 is a bit lighter than Pro 3 (168gr. vs. 175gr.)
8. Cool S1 CPU has surprisingly underclocked to 1.9 GHz while Pro3 is 2.3 GHz. (Tested by one of my friends using CPU-Z and AIDA64)
9. Some packages of Cool S1 have included amazing akg earphones while most of cheaper ones that are currently available doesn't have that.
10. Pro3 has a LTE Cat12 modem but Cool S1 must be Cat9 but there is no official information about that.
That's​ all I know
Official sources do not talk about Gorilla Glass in x720. It is listed in LeMall US (x727), but in CN is not.
Also 1.9 MHz can't be rised up by Kernel Auditor?

Yes, the official US website has listed Gorilla Glass but about the CN version although there is no info on the lemall, almost every Chinese seller or website (Kimovil for example) says that the phone have Gorilla Glass. Also it's totally obvious that the screen is scratch resistant.
And about the kernel auditor, he just made some basic tests and didn't want to root the phone to test kernel auditor.
I really hope that Cool Changer S1 becomes popular so it will can have some customs roms, otherwise seems like this device will die with android 6
Correction I think it got no 3.5mm headphone jack but Type C audio same as Le Pro 3, compared spec here:
http://www.phonebunch.com/compare-phones/leeco_le_pro3-2668-vs-coolpad_cool_s1-2735/
Everything almost the same, its even come with EUI 5.8 skin. One thing I notice LTE for Coolpad S1 is CAT 4 150/50Mbps where Le Pro 3 is CAT 12. Other main difference would be Hi-Fi audio but need info to confirm it.
It seems to be wider by 0.8mm
I have a Cool changer S1, i have installed TWRP, rooted the ROM, installed VIPER4ARISE and DDP, also i found and try a chinese ROM with Android 7.1 with a lot of chinese apps, i want to write the methods for this customs for the phone, but i suggest open a new fórum for the phone.
PD: the frecuency of the CPU can't be overclocked with kernel auditor
What about Lte Band support? Does the s1 have B4 and B20? The official info in Lemall is mixed...

First of all thanks about the ROM and the recovery
One question: a noob question
If I changed the build.prop to x720 it's work?
I do not recommend using a rom for x720 on the Coolpad S1 Changer. Although the hardware seems the same, there are differences in the file system, partitions and some drivers and configuration files. You need to have a modified ROM specially for Coolpad S1 otherwise you will have a device that doesn't works or works badly! Greetings!

NO
Hi all, I made some research here and there to compare LP3 with S1. I unpacked both stock ROMs and they are very very similar. I found slight differences into ramdisk files, due to different kernels. I could port a boot.img and repack a lineage 13 for a try. I cannot repack .dat files, so the ROM should be flashed with fastboot or twrp. If someone wants to be a tester is very welcome. I don't have the device. It could be useful to get the device partition log.

Xposed Framework

Does anyone know if Xposed Framework is working on S8 i found this article:
https://www.gizdev.com/install-xposed-framework-on-android-nougat/
and theres the option on Magisk to install it
Xposed wasn't available for Nougat until today (revo89 announced it here). Don't **** with it yet, the top "known issue" for Samsung devices is bootloops, as seen in the announcement thread, and me saying it's available doesn't mean it's fixed (I really don't know if it is or not -- anyone know?)
Yeah it works.
Things work better on aosp based roms rather than touchwiz based roms

which model?
I use xposed from PurifyOS Team
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
with AMBASADII ROM 1.5 and have no problems with stability, power drain oder lags.
Ok, i use only 4 modules and a module for remap the volume keys (I dont know which excatly) generate a boot loop.
I have the SM-G950F model.
TMobile s8 Snapdragon and this version doesn't reset everything in gravitybox N like purify version.
stupid question, I have a stock Samsung Galaxy S8 Rooted Sprint. Will Xposed work on my device? If so where do i download the files to install it in? I don't know which zip to download and I don't want to bootloop. I have asked for days but not a single person has replied or helped me
---------- Post added at 05:39 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:27 PM ----------
I have a successfully rooted Samsung Galaxy S8 Stock for Sprint. Please note that this is NOT S8+ BUT simple S8.
1) WIll Xposed Work on my Device?
2) Where and which files do I download to make it work?
3) Do i need to Deodex my System? I worked so hard to get root and I dont want to do that
4) can someone please answer me?
I'm on T-Mobile S8 (bare, not a plus nor an active), Xposed does work correctly. Check my previous post in this thread for two links. You should find your way to the APK. Just install that guy, nothing fancy needed beyond root, which you said you have.
I will note that not much is available for Xposed on Nougat Samsung devices. Maybe some Adblocks and a couple minor things, but I'll be upgrading to Oreo as soon as I can figure out how to get rooted Oreo on my S8.

Hi, I have the samsung galaxy s7 edge SM935F with LineageOS 15.1, it works on my device but I have problems with waking it, I have to press the buttons multiple times in order to wake it up, or I have just black screen otherwise and it's frustrating.
Do you know a solution?
This is stupid and pointless.
You will burn battery life like hell.
Always On only works on OLED screens;: It doesnt work on LCDs (like the Oneplus One has)

Samsung high end line like S (S7 Edge in my case) had OLED screen way back before oneplus ever existed, so is not pointless at all to try this solution on aosp ROM on Samsung Galaxy S line

hello, I noticed several problems on the update of the rom:
-the phone application to call plant systematically, it is impossible to use
-The rom is less well optimized than the first version of the rom, slower
-the phone heats faster
Games like fortnite or pokemon go do not work
I am holding off on my install based on this, do you have the original ROM file, can you please share that for me if it doesn't have ant issues?

A big thanks to the OP. This ROM works great on my good old N930F which SAMSUNG never got back. :laugh: Ended up keeping it for free!
After installing Magisk, reinstalling aroma GAPPS and some of the goodies from the Magisk module list (especially the Equinox camera mod) plus the Microsoft Launcher on top, everything works great for me. This puts another year of extended use in my second phone. :good::good::good:
