Multi User Enable Lollipop - Verizon Galaxy S 5 General

I have a rooted GS5 running Lollipop stock rooted but am unable to get multi user to work. I added
Fw.max_users=3
Fw.show_multiuserui=1
I was able to see it in settings and add a user, but if I try to change, I crash the kernel and it begins a soft reboot. What else am I missing?

5.1.1 root for n915g work but....

Seem like micky insecure kernel does make the root work great. But just wondering is there anyone also find the wifi wont auto connect anymore? I have to manually add them...
If you mean that the passwords are not saved the fix is in the kernel thread.
In build.prop change ro.securestorage from true to false.
Thank you ..it works. One more thing does anyone know how to disable that security notification after rooting other than disabling the whole smart manager? I try the notification setting unfortunately the smart manage do not have the block option.
Update: i think i found a soltion to this annoying security notification. Use titanium back up or root uninstaller to freeze security log agent.

Marshmallow 6.0: howto enable Multi-window option

As you may already know, Marshmallow now include support for Multi-Window interface but, it's disabled by default. You need a little bit of tinkering to get it to work.
-First, you will need to have a rooted device, so make sure you flashed SuperSU 2.61 or 2.62 (older version won't work on Marshmallow).
-Then, you will need to edit a single line inside build.prop (located in /system folder), I did this with Root Browser because many other file browsing apps have trouble getting root access with Marshmallow. Root Browser is working perfectly as long as you have the right version of SuperSU.
-Once you open build.prop with Root Browser, you need to look for the line "ro.build.type=user", then you will need to change this line to "ro.build.type=userdebug", once it's done, reboot your phone.
-Now, you need to enable Developer settings by going in Parameters/About phone and tap on "Build number" seven time.
-You will now see the Developer settings in Parameters, open it and scroll down till you see the option about Multi-window support, tap on it to enable it. You will get a warning telling you that it's an experimental feature but who care?
-That's it, now you will have a new icon appearing on top of each apps in recent apps screen, just tap on it to get an app to appear in Multi-Window mode.

Sorry you'll have to Google it, simply do a search with keywords "Marshmallow multi window", I tried so many times to make screenshots on my Moto X Play and it never worked. Pushing vol-down + power button never worked for me.

Changing ro.build.type to userdebug might interfere with other functions of the device. A better way to enable multi-window on Marshmallow would be to simply add persist.sys.debug.multi_window=true to build.prop.

Disable emui theme

I have emui 3.0 on KitKat and have tried several build.prop edits and still can't disable it. I'm wanting to install a later version of xposed without disable reside hook since it's disabled app settings module. Can anyone help me out on this one.

Build.prop tweaks not working.

I have galaxy s6 920I stock latest firmware, rooted and TWRP recovery. I wanted to use some build.prop tweaks like wifi scan interval etc.
So I have edited the build.prop file taking all the necessary care rebooted but those tweaks don't seem to work. I even used the build.prop editor from jrummy but same thing.
How do I make the tweaks work like in custom roms.

Multi window for marshmallow

One of the reason I wanted to upgrade my HTC One A9 to nougat was the multi window feature which I enjoyed on stock Samsung tochwiz..using my phone without it was very difficult.. Now I want to share with you the easiest way to get multi window feature on your marshmallow device without flashing any zip file or downloading any apk file nor xposed module..
Requirements:
1. Root access
2. Buildprop editor.
Download buildprop editor from the Google playstore, launch the app and grant it root access... scroll down under BUILD INFO scroll and locate ro.build.type, click on ro.build.type you will find "user" edit and change "user" to "userdebug" and click save, reboot your phone. After you reboot your device, enter developer option..scroll down and find Multi window and enable it.. then enjoy multi window...
Note: this should work on all stock rooted marshmallow devices.
