[HELP] Nougat Tweaks anyone? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer

I saw a few threads regarding tweaks but I wanted to know if there is an app that can uninstall most bloatware and if there is a list of bloatware to uninstall?

I am actually working on a debloater script for the stock rom ROOT method. But there is an actual ROM compiled by @jrkruse for the NOUGAT (BQC1).
You should go ahead and check it out

Root without custom recovery or ROM.. Knox?

I want to root and keep stock ROM and stock recovery and all.
Basically only want to delete bloat with titanium and use greenify.
Will this trigger Knox? Is it even possible?
no, any rooting currently triggers the knox counter

if u r using greenify donate, the xposed installer has to be version 2.3 beta 1. version 2.2 encountered "cannot write /data/xposed/modules.list" error.
i spent quite some time trouble shooting as the xposed forum thread did not mention the beta version on the opening post.
It may be possible to remove bloatware without root:

Please note, I have NOT tried it, so cannot vouch for its veracity or safety. If anyone can, I'd be grateful.

[Q] Safe to install Xposed without Custom Recoveries?

Hi guys!! I have a question, is it safe to use Xposed framework without using custom recoveries?
I know everywhere they say its safe to make a backup with recoveries but i want to refrain from doing that as I am going to take the OTAs when available in my country (Obviously will uninstall the Xposed framework before OTA (Hoping this will work - any insight on this too is appreciated)).
I am not into changing ROMS and use stock ROM only but want to use Xposed for its great customizations (Modules interested in G2 Xposed/Tweakbox/Gravity Box).
Did anyone ever had a problem using Xposed / Any experiences to share where Xposed messed up the phone completely/partially and had to recover using TWRP or CWM?
Or is it just a "Safe step" to install recoveries and back it up before using xposed?

do not take the ota even if your just rooted it will brick your device
My understanding is that Xposed does not worked with G2's Kitkat right now. The problem is not related to root.
Edit: See this thread.

Once Xposed 2.5 comes out it will work just got to wait

Bloatware removal script for AT&T G2?

I saw in the AT&T Development section there was a rooted stock 4.4.2 with bloatware removed but that build has no working downloads... I installed the stock rooted 4.4.2 and was curious if there was a flashable file that would remove the bloat from the phone? I know how to use a system app removal app but sometimes it's a bit dificult to go through the list and find everything.

Best TW based ROM is AryaMod. Toy can select what Samsung apps to intall in Aroma while flashing the ROM.
And if you want to remove more bloats, there's an old thread in General forum which gives list of apps that can be removed (freezed).

Basic Question: Still have to deodex for Xposed install on Sprint S4 5.0.1 (sdk 21)?

I'm an xda n00b just trying to get the XHaloFloatingWindow working on my S4.
So far I've rooted my phone and created a backup image (saved on my PC), but now I've got to install the Xposed framework. I'm a bit confused after reading the boards though because the older posts say I have to deodex my ROM first, but rovo89's recent posts don't mention this requirement before linking to the installers.
Please let me know: do I need to deodex before installing the Xposed framework on my Sprint S4 5.0.1?
Thanks!

Yes.
You also need the special TouchWiz xposed version.
Hello, is there a Android 5.0 ROM without many features but compatible with Xposed modules? I am not looking to overclock my Galaxy S4 i9500, I just want some programs to run on my phone, thanks in advance!

All ROMs are compatible with Xposed. Developers don't encourage the use.
I'm not sure how helpful this will be, but there are some unofficial Xposed frameworks that work on odexed systems. I have a stock ROM Note 4 (custom kernel) i.e. odexed, and also have Xposed (I use xprivacy, batterymon, SU, GPS spoofer, Flashify, Adaway, and BusyBox with a terminal so to probe various system peculiarities (PIDs, file handles, etc.)).
I can't remember the link for the Xposed framework my phone currently runs, but it was from XDA forums. Maybe it's worth searching for an unofficial framework for an odexed S4.
