Hi all,
I combined the default installed packages on most of the popular ROMs for this phone in an easy to read spreadsheet. Now you can see what differences each ROM has in stock installed packages, for me it was useful to check if a particular system app was available on another ROM without having to install that ROM. All the ROM maintainers do a great job, it was hard to decide.
Included is the stock Motorola 24.49.18.3 (Marshmallow) ROM, compared to TrupureXMM, Temasek, Vanilla CM13, AICP, Bliss, Dirty Unicorns and the Nexus 5X CM13 ROM (as it uses the SD808 as well, some of the system and radio packages will be the same).
The motivation for this was noticing a few unrecognised system apps in the ROM I was using, then I wondered if they existed on other ROMs, or the stock ROM as well. I built the list by extracting the system .dat images and pulling the package names from the manifest XMLs to make comparing easier. It's now all scripted so adding more ROMs is quick.
Hopefully this will help some people decide on ROMs or raise some questions as to what different packages are. For example, what is com.motorola.motocit or com.verizon.omadm or com.android.sprint.lifetimedata doing on AOSP and is it required?

Note:
* These are just packages only, does not correlate to features, or performance/reliability, etc. Just for reference/curiosity only. Any questions about the ROMs themselves please go to the ROM thread, the maintainers have put in alot of hard work on their ROMs.
* Removing pre-installed apps may have adverse effects, also will not free up space as the /system partition has a pre-set size.
* If there are other ROMs you want added, let me know. Depending on public interest, I might add human-friendly names, or more information like permissions required / file size.

Hey all,
I am new to the Android community. I just rooted my Nexus and flashed the Oxygen rom on it. It comes with the Netarchy kernel 1.3.5.(has awesome battery life) On the forums i noticed a lot of people posting about a trinity uv kernel for oxygen. Can anyone explain the difference between the kernels. Will changing the kernel affect my battery life?. And there is a new netarchy, should i update it to the latest version or just use the one which comes with the rom.. I am really a novice here, So any help would be appreciated. .
In computing, the kernel is the main component of most computer operating systems; it is a bridge between applications and the actual data processing done at the hardware level. The kernel's responsibilities include managing the system's resources (the communication between hardware and software components).[1] Usually as a basic component of an operating system, a kernel can provide the lowest-level abstraction layer for the resources (especially processors and I/O devices) that application software must control to perform its function. It typically makes these facilities available to application processes through inter-process communication mechanisms and system calls.

And yes, a new kernel might make your device faster with less battery drain. If you would like to flash a new kernel, then go do it. If you're not happy with the performance then flash a new kernel or revert to the original. But remember to do a NAND backup (full backup of your system/current OS) with ROM Manager before you begin.

If you've ever used CyanogenMod, then you already know it comes bundled with ROM Manager. That's the case for one reason: so users can quickly and easily pull updates to the ROM. However, this presents a problem of sorts. CyanogenMod is completely open source, but ROM Manager isn't. Therefore, the team wanted an update solution that will allow CM users to pull the latest builds to their devices, but is still open source. So they made their own, which will replace ROM Manager in upcoming builds.
The new updater should be available in the latest nightlies (rolling out tonight). Once you flash, head into Settings > About to set your update preferences!
This is actually a rehash of an old version of the updater from CM5 and 6 (that seems like so long ago, doesn't it?) that has been updated to work with CM9/10 and beyond.
Since push notifications for updates require Google Apps framework, the CM updater won't actually include that functionality. What it will do, however, is automatically check for updates at user-defined intervals, and pull the update once something is available.
The updater will pull directly from get.cm, so you'll always be getting official CM builds directly from the source. As you can see, it can be customized to check for new stable builds, new nightlies, or all builds from either channel.
This will be a huge improvement over any other method of pulling updates (especially manually), so we're definitely looking forward to seeing it debut. As always, however, there's no official timeline as to when it may make its way into nightlies.
Hello friends, this app is nothing so advanced, but I think at least the modifiers like roms and developers can use in their custom roms and thematic roms.
It is open source written by me in eclipse and am releasing so you can modify the apk by apktool, apk manager and other of your choice.
They can do whatever they want this app, it will let you all possible information your rom .... I'll let some pictures so that they can understand the application and what the intention that I left it open for all to do what it wants.
Here I leave my free source for you who also want to use eclipse and increase other forms, remember to share your results, and help one another, source
If you want this application to your language, just translate the string and send me. HERE
Downloads and changelog application
version 0.1 - Download HERE
Initial source, just testing to see their freedom
How to use?
You will decompile it with apktool or some of your own, even if you use eclipse you can use straight from the source github.
After that, you simply modify the desired lines with text that you need ...
Remember that only modificas lines of string, which is inside - "> <" - https://github.com/EsromG5/apps_package_MadRomInfo/blob/master/res/values/strings.xml
I would ask that no changes to the application version and the developer of the same name, may be the most at ease.
If you did some function or feature that does not exist in the application, please share, it helps to improve this simple apk.

First-aid 4 Android
First-aid 4 Android is a custom recovery flashable zip powered by AROMA Installer of XDA Developer @amarullz to provide you the ability to choose between packaged quick fixes to specific problems which renders your phone unusable without the need to resort to Reflashing of ROMs or Factory Reset. First-aid 4 Android utilizes the reverse-engineering idea to undo the process.
For now, First-aid 4 Android only contains fixes for the problems listed below:
(But we will add more in the future.)
Screen Security: Too Many Pattern attempts
Soft-brick after installing new custom font
System Requirements:
From Aroma Installer Thread: Your device must have ARM Neon support.
Custom recovery like CWM, TWRP or others...
If you know other non-manufacturer-specific android problems that can be recoverable and want to contribute the idea to us, you are welcome reach us by posting it here. Please show us how to reproduce the problem and if you also knew the steps of fixing it, please add it too but it is not necessary... we will do our best to reverse engineer it...
Please HIT the Thanks button if you find this useful! XD

Hi there,
Seems like a nice idea! Buuuut I need to report a first small bug:
The text for Potato AOSP in the custom ROM section is cut off after the first line, saw it on a Galaxy Note10.
Looking forward to further development.
Cheers!
