[APP][MOD][4.0+] MIUI v4 Superuser & Permissions for non-MIUI Roms

I liked the simple superuser and permissions management of MIUI v4, so thought I'd port it to work on any ICS rom. Note that this zip will replace Superuser/SuperSU so always take a backup first. I'm not responsible if something goes wrong and you haven't.
Questions you shouldn't ask:
Does this work on gingerbread/froyo etc.
Answer: NO, its ICS+ only.
Does this work on MIUI v4?
Answer: Probably, but if your on v4, you already have it so don't waste both of our time trying.
Anything not specifically related to this apk.

Yeah, its basically the permissions management part of lbe, with super user control added. Lbe make it for miui. I much prefer the look and simplicity of this one to the full lbe.

awesome, it worked for me on a DroidX on ICS. It didnt remove superSU though, is that because it is a data app not system?

Probably. It only remove super user apks from /system/app
Data ones you can uninstall yourself, and it won't cause any harm if it stays there, it just won't do anything as the su binary will call this app instead.

Ok, that's what I thought. I usually put it in system but every new ROM install removed it so I got lazy lol. Thanks

ey thanks for sharing this!!! It solved my error message when installig an apk on miuiv4 aosp adyscorpius thanks a lot !!

If it changed ANYTHING at all on a miui v4 rom other than the dark theme, I would be having words with your dev as this is exactly the same as what's already included, they're doing something wrong.

Do you think you can port the miui clock app [not widget]?

If this the one that gives prompts when an app tries to send a sms etc?

I would really appreciate if you can port the Recorder app, that ui is just too slick

Another example (as with notes) of an app that's both open source and already available on xda.
I'm not taking requests, someone just got lucky with the clock as I was gonna do it anyway

[MOD] 4x5 TouchWiz Launcher

This will make the launcher home screen 4 (wide) x 5 (high)
It will also make the app drawer 4 (wide) x 6 (high)
Only tested on Verizon GS5 (SM-G900V)
Flash using safestrap.
I'm new to modding so let me know if there's anything that needs to be changed or doesn't work right.
ENJOY!
Don't be shy with that Thanks button!
EDIT: Forgot to mention, make sure busybox is installed before flashing. It uses it to mount /system during the flash process.

I was thinking about doing it if someone asked but after seeing how tedious the process is I'm not so sure.

I'm very used to "home" being in the middle, and not at the left end, of the home screens, so I'd really like to try this. But in the event I decided I didn't like it, how would I go back to the stock settings? Is there an "un-install" for this?
Edit - I just realized, having made a nandroid of the stock ROM with Safestrap, I could just restore that to get back to the factory setup on the home screens if I wanted to, right?

Well first of all this has nothing to do with where the home screen is, it just changes the grid size.
As for restoring, just make a backup of /system/priv-app/TouchWizHome.apk and if you want to go back just restore that file through safestrap.

This is just awesome, I was wondering if it is possible to make the icons a little bit bigger, and also wondering if we could have the Google search bar in every screen, like the Google launcher.
Thanks for the nice mod! !!

Thanks for clarifying that, but I immediately saw the first point above for myself. I made the mistake of assuming your modification would bring about every aspect of the picture you showed (in which your main homescreen is centered). Since that was the main reason I was looking at this modification, I decided to switch to Nova Launcher to get that feature. But thanks for the mod, and for answering my questions.

anybody know if this would work and is even needed on Alliance rom ?
If not needed.. how would I enable in Alliance ?

[ROM] [CLOSED] Phoenix OS ROOTED/GAPPS (Android 6.0.1 With Windows)

I closed this thread because the rules are that if you didn't develop it you shouldn't post it. Since I didn't develop it and only added a few things, I decided to close the thread.
For those of you who like the windowing feature I am using Android 7 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7-2013/development/rom-saosp-n-t3473634 along with Taskbar from the Play Store https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.farmerbb.taskbar . Taskbar allows you to have fully functional windows for all your apps. I combine it with LMT Launcher from XDA to quickly launch other apps from any screen.

lollyjay said:
Hi all you Nexus 7 flo diehards. First I am not a dev, but I would like to get testers of a Marshmallow ROM that has truly functional windowing.
The devs at Chaozhuo have released it. I have been using it for a while and it is fast and fluid and reliable.
Check their website at http://www.phoenixos.com/en_US/
For all of you with TWRP recovery I have a link to a TWRP backup made with 3.0.2-0 that will allow you to begin testing it.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3gcDbDvV4MkS1pwS3pYWTQ4WUU/view?usp=drivesdk
This is a fresh install. A few problems right now:
1 No Google Play Services or Play Store
2 No launcher, just a desktop (LMT launcher does work)
3 Not rooted but you can flash SuperSU
Give it a try and post your comments in this thread.

Thanks. I find that a launcher isn't a necessity with a desktop like Windows. Also LMT launcher gives me instant access to my most used apps.

I've sideloaded a number of apps but I agree that Play Store is necessary for full functionality.

Thank you for sharing your TWRP backup @lollyjay I have tested PhoenixOS now for a while. Of course it still has some bugs (especially the camera), but it looks very very nice and runs smoothly. Hopefully the next update features some fixes, improved translations, google services + apps and the possibility to fade out the taskbar.

Just a reminder that any app installed from the Play Store you need to manually set permissions. Settings/Apps/select the app/Permissions

Does video out through slim port adapter is possible/working?

Different Launcher
Is there a workaround to install a different launcher? I think there's a solution but for x86 PC's only. I find the desktop not so much appropriate for nexus 7 flo because of its small size (7'' only).
