Yeah without a legitimate invitation you can't get that waitlist ID. I was able to add a string variable called "waitlist_id" that seemed to make it happy but with 0 as the value, it rejected my invitations. I think there is a server side check. For those that are legitimately invited though, they may be able to have unlimited invites haha

It's all good im glad to be able to test this so far not impressed, but that's why it's a beta

thanks bro.

working great. thanks alot.

Not working here, no matter what. I'm on 12S for the OnePlus. Selinux is relaxed.
I can overwrite the xml file, or edit it, and it will stay 'fixed' until I either reboot or start Hound.
Also, when the directions say to force close Hound, I go to settings/apps and force close it that way.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
EDIT: The problem was Root Explorer and Root Browser were not seemingly working with Lollipop getting past the permissions...
Fx Explorer finally did, once I found it's root setting.
Fast app for most basic searches. It'll be fun to watch it's continuing development.

Worked for me thank you..

Didn't work for me
I tried replacing it and changing permission or not changing permission, it wont work... activation screen comes up as soon as I open the app.
I'm on stock 5.0.1

In which "data" folder it is? Only sd->data? I had no data/data there..

I feel like i just got a "FAST PASS" at a Theme Park lol Thank You......high five!!

You have to use root explorer or something like this. And you should have root, of course.

Try using adb to push the file onto the phone.
I too replaced it and am having no luck. pushed via adb changed permissions in root explorer. Gave it 0755 permissions just to be for sure it was not my issue.
rooted with s-off on skyraider 2.2
The apks take 644 permission, not 755.
Also for clarification, this is only for *SENSE*, _NOT_ for Vanilla ROMs. All you do is delete the original Mms.apk, and push the new one. Make sure you're pushing the right one.
i must say this mms.apk works better for some odd reason for mms messages (same for sms) than the inc mms.apk (sense) but it still doesn't show pics if your running a vanilla rom...its a trade off though because every non sense mms.apk ive tried has serious mms issues like not sending or receiving mms correctly, currently running skyraider 2.5.2

[App] DSP Manager NEW LINK as of February 15

★★How to install DSP★★
1. move to system/app.
2. Select R/W.
3. paste the app.
4. Now install it VIA ROOT EXPLORER
3. Set permissions in the picture provided.

(I DON'T TAKE CREDIT FOR THIS APP)
*should work with EVERY ROM! *
https://www.box.net/shared/cd113rdnixyk4krdh7ic
★★ Edit ★★
Use Google music or other music player app! The stock HTC music player disables DSP if you change the EQ mode in the HTC stock music player. Google music gives you a sweet option when pressing menu also quick access to DSP.
*****People are saying this only works with CM sources. It works on sense Roms unless they have CM sources which I doubt they do*****
Thanks.. been looking for a dspmanager that works on cool3d AceS Rom on
HTC desire.
The ones I found tended to need libs placed in various places and would
either not work or send in to a bootloop.
This works straight off, no extras needed
Also integrates fully with Google music 3.0, click menu then the sound effects
button and it gives the dsp settings.. great stuff.
Edit... Oh you already mentioned the integration.. teach me to read before
posting.

I played it in system/app and put those permissions in and it doesn't even show up in AppList.

I'm trying to install it under System/App, but each time it says "Application not installed". Root Explorer is set to R/W. What could be wrong?

Don't try and install it, just paste the apk in system/app
and set the permissions as they are set in the image above by snake eyes.
Restart ! and Done!
Now open the app drawer, you will see DSP in it
Works well!
Thanks.

Hi, I need help to install it please, and can you put a mirror download please ?
I really dont know how to install it, I put it into system/app, adding ".bak" after the original Trebuchet.apk.
But every time I do this and I want to install your tweaked Trebuchet.apk, it it said that "application not installed".
Can you help me ? Because your tweak seems to be good !!

[Q] Changing Emojis

Hi guys! So I am receiving my s7 from sprint next week. In my opinion, I really don't like the Samsung emojis and prefer the stock google ones. Is it possible to create a flipfont with the google emojis that would replace the Samsung ones without root?
Thanks!
No, not that I know of. It requires a root.
Yes download emojis for flipfont and set it as font. I made mine srock

Me too, in SMS. Though in WhatsApp and other such messaging apps they have their emojis built in so I use them instead. However, receiving calls on those apps incurs a nasty Samsung bug whereby you can't adjust the in-call volume - no matter what any of the volume sliders say it's maximum volume, which is extremely uncool.
I use the app Hello SMS and it uses ios emojis. The app is basic but works fine, I've been using it for a long time.

I've just gone through all the apps in the application manager and I found this app that doesn't sound right. It is called OM customize. Does anybody know what it is? Is it part of Android? I will attach a couple of photos.

most cases i seen so far they had been on Vodafone firmware , you can not delete it as you are not root but you can freeze it with apps like package disabler
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro&hl=en
Also is safer than just delete it without now for sure what they are for ...... will keep an eye on it

I've found the OM customise app too, it's taking too much of my S7 (bought SIM free) battery, is it safe to force stop it? I can't disable it is greyed out.
Deleted OM Customize
On my Galaxy S5 Neo, COSMOTE branded, I deleted OM Customize with Titanium Backup and everything is working fine.
Download and Install Titanium Backup from the Play Store on your rooted device.
Enable USB Debugging under Developer Options.
Open Titanium Backup and Grant Root Access.
Go to the Backup/Restore Tab.
Find OM Customize.
Select Wipe Data.
Select OK on the Backup Prompt to continue without backing up.
Do the same with the Un-Install option.
Restart.
Please mark as helpful... I am new here...
First go to your setting in your phone. Choose APPS and after that go inside OM CUSTOMIZE . You clear all data in storage and force to stop. After that go out one click and you see all APPS right . You see 3 dot at up there, you click that 3 dot and its appear . You choose SHOW SYSTEM APPS. And then you see so many robots and some image. You scrool and you will see and found GAME OPTIMIZING SERVICE . Go inside that and CLEAR ALL DATA and FORCE TO STOP. Thats what i do and my battery get normal back. Sorry my english not good. I dont know how to upload screenshots step by step in here. Ask me in my instagram @nura9312.
