How to disable sdcard access (permanent) - General Questions and Answers

I want to disable a user from using the sd card on his samsung tablet A 2016 (Android 6-7) - SM-T580.
I think the best answer is to find the driver responsible about it & delete it from kernel or system
(I have root permission, no problem with that.)
I have did the same for the camera & found the files & managed to disable it. now when I want to use it back I just make a flash recovery.
Any help please?

[FIX OR TRICK] [ Link2SD ] [NO QUICK REBOOT] How to mount external partition at boot

Its a problem for some link2sd users that after a hard reboot (i.e. a full reboot , they get a dialog box saying
"external partition not mounted at the boot time "
And have options to Recreate mount script or Quick Reboot .
This solves the problem ;D.
So what you have to do is:
1. Install mount2sd by from playstore.
2. Now that you have installed , open it
3. Go to settings .
4. Install script (you will find it right on top).
5. Try hard reboot your phone and Bang !! It worked !
If it didn't , make sure that the ROM you are using have init.d support.
You can check it out if your ROM supports it or not by
1. Open root explorer
2. Go to /etc
3. Search for init.d folder.
If it is there, your ROM has this feature to run scripts at the first flash of your phones manufacturer's logo during boot.
If not, try to find patch for it or contact your ROM manufacturer.
If you have the init.d thing and it didn't worked out :+
->Try reinstall link2sd or just recreate mount script.
You can also try out mount2sd itself , its cool
forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432479
I would like to tell you that this is just a trick. That means it worked for me on my galaxy fit with any custom ROM but I am not sure it will work for you and your phone too. And I also do not know how it worked but it works
So don't ask me but the respective owners of their apps, the questions you have .Sorry
DEVS , CORRECT ME IF I AM WRONG
And after this if you want to remove mount2sd , you can . uninstall it. But I recommend that you should just delete the mount2sd apk from /data/apps using Root Explorer .
And yes, mount2sd needs root permission too. Grant it.
Unresponsive after mount2sd
Micromax A50, MTK-6573, Unlocked bootloader, android 2.3.6, Rooted, busybox, init.d, adb insecure, link2sd -had that problem of quit re-boot
Tried mount2sd and installed script at start up
Now my device can start but after that it is unresponsive at home screen...nothing is working
Pls help...
Advance thanks...

PMID920 Root/Gapps Guide

OK I think I have a fairly foolproof method since I got root and Google Apps.
1. Download this automatic driver installer from adbdriver .com
2. Plug in the tablet via the USB cable (with debugging and unknown sources on) and open the automated installer
3. Select PMID920 and install the drivers
4. Download Kingo root
5. Then transfer an apk of root explorer, supersu, and copy the system folder of Jelly Bean 130812-13 GAPPs onto the tablet
6. Install supersu and root explorer using the built in Explorer app
7. Now go on kingo and click root again.
8. Open SuperSU and install binaries.
9. Open root explorer and allow root then go to / directory and set to R/W
10. This is where I and others got stuck. Go to sdcard and find the system folder you copied and open it
11. Use root explorer's multi-select feature to select the folder in system and copy them to your system folder
12. Reboot and it should work if it did great
13. If not you'll have to do what I did which is check the folders in system and you may notice they look like this /system/app then another app folder in there with the files
14. Manually go into all of the folders and delete any duplicate folder i.e if you open the lib folder and see another lib folder delete it and so on
15. Go to your SD card and use multi-select with select all and carefully copy all the files to the corresponding system directories then verify they all are correctly copied with none in the wrong place or missing (yes this does suck )
16. Reboot and you should be prompted to sign into google. Enjoy
Realize I am not responsible for any screwed up tablets and recommend you do this on Win 7 like I did. Also I cant post links yet.
If you get an error about insecure connection try these (not mine) View attachment usb_DRV_MODED.zip
HI, so i am working on getting this very Polaroid tablet to work with the aid of your direction and i have gotten as far as step 5. sort of.. when i use Kingo root i continuously tells me that my device is unstable. debugging mode is activated and so is the installation of from unknown sources... have i missed something? i would really love to have google play services on this tablet but this is becoming rather annoying being defied by such a tablet... please help.
Hmm if it is a driver issue due to some error in installing the drivers then go to device manager and uninstall the device and check the box. Then try to install the drivers I will add to the main post (not mine) you will have to install them without a signature. Also what os, cable, and kingo root are you using.
Lets start with saying that im pretty uber noob at this so idk what os im using. or what os is... cable is a usb micro the only cable that goes into the pmid920. as far as kingo root, i went to kingoapp.com and clicked into download, and that was it, downloaded the package and tried to use it..
Try the new drivers
An Operating System is like Windows, Macintosh, Ubuntu etc. Did you try the new drivers Just uninstall the old drivers by right clicking on the device and check the uninstall driver box. Then unplug and replug the cable then chose own drivers and go to the extracted folder I put in the main post.
ok so maybe im a little smarter than i had thought... im doing the work on the tablet with a windows 7 laptop because during the first couple steps my windows 8 laptop was not compatable. however, i have uninstalled the drivers and then put in the drivers from the zip file you linked in, however now kingo root is telling me that the connection is unstable.. what do now? also im really sorry for having to bug you about this alot. seems rather annoying
Hello! I am stuck on step 8. When I open SuperSU, it says "The SU binary need to be updated. Continue?". I hit continue.
Then it asks "If you have a custom recovery like TWRP or CWM, that can be used to (try to) install the SU binary. This is recommended for HTC devices. How would you like to install the SU binary?" Normal or TWRP/CWM. I hit Normal.
Then it says "Installation failed !" and closes the app.
I am using SuperSU version 1.69.
Please help with this part.
Thanks.
Alright for the su binary I forgot but I think you have to click unroot reboot then root it again using kingo root. As far as the unstable connection error I have read and it may be some type of bug with kingo. Remember windows 7 and try both sets of drivers.
i did try the sets of drivers. With the first set when i used kingo root it told me that the device its self was unstable, and then when i tried the 2nd set it was able to accept the device but not the conection, it would tell me that the connection was unstable, and using several different ports on the laptop (windows 7) it would still say the connection was unstable.. do you know of another good rooting tool that would allow me to use either windows 7 or 8?
Well...
I'm sorry but this is as far as my knowledge extends.

I was able to get it to root and install gapps! I'm not sure exactly why it worked though. First SuperSU was updated and then I tried Kingo root again but this time I mounted the sd card on the tablet first. Then after it rebooted, I was able to get R/W access to the root folder and transfer all the new files over. After a nail-biteingly long reboot, it had me sing in to google and now I have google play and can sign in to youtube. So I am not sure it worked because of the updated SuperSU or mounting the SD card first the made the difference. But thanks all the same Beutrocks! You're awesome!:good:
system folder size limit
Has anyone gotten a problem with the amount of space allowed in root/system? Everything up until you have to copy the gapps system folder over worked for me, but when trying to copy over the gapps system folder, explorer says there is not enough room. The space available is a couple MB and obviously the gapps system folder is about 150 MB. Has anyone else had this issue, or know how to readjust the size that root/system allows? I'm new to rooting.
The GAPPs I got was 100-120

Try to make sure that folderception didn't occur; It happened to me and yes I was mad. You can check by going to /system/apps and if there is another apps folder delete it. Do this for all of the folders that copied wrong for example /system/libs/libs. Then manually recopy all of the files.
Can you clarify?

1. Download driver - to laptop I assume?
2. Open the automated installer - on the laptop or on the tablet?
3. Select PMID920 - From where? It doesn't come up anywhere.
4. Download Kingo root from where and to where? On the laptop or on the tablet?
5. Transfer an apk of root explorer - from where to where
6. Install supersu... - how, where?
7. Go on Kingo - Where? Web, laptop, tablet?
8. Open Supesu - How? Where?
Please clarify exactly how this can be done for us neophytes.
Fantastic. Thanks beutrocks. Step 14 is what had me hung up. I am up and running now on my friend's tablet. Awesome!
You download then install the drivers then pmid920 should show up. If on windows 8 you must boot into unsigned driver mode.

Hey so I'm thinking about biting the bullet to finally trying to root & update this pmid920 to google play. But I guess I'm a little worried as this fellow messed his up & couldn't put stock fw back on it. http://www.FreakTab.com/showthread.php?t=11960 or if I just wanted to keep it simple should I just root & sideload apps to it? Or what do u think this fellow did wrong to totally mess it up? I just wanna keep it simple to let kids have some games on it & me to bs on it n such. Thanks in advance Ron.

Hey bud so I hope u had a great holiday & I just wanted to let u know that I did manage to root & get google play following this XDA post
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588991 but I used a apk app called iroot to root device. It installed & I opened app then made one click & I was rooted. The only thing is that it installed some Chinese version of super user & in order to get the regular SuperSU app to work that I downloaded I had to unroot reboot & rwroot. Weird but it worked. But now I'm wondering since there is no development or filmware available for this thing is it possible to install twrp or cwm or even philz touch recovery on this & maybe even tweek it? Well thanks in advance & have a great day!

[Q&A][FAQ][TW][N][7.0][SM-G930F/FD/K/L/S/W8] SuperMan/SuperStock-Rom

Hello guys, I open a Question and Answer Thread for all SuperMan Rom users, so even users under 10 posts can ask their questions here.
Below I added some basic Q&A stuff which can also be found at the main thread, if you have any question, read through them before posting, thanks!
In case you search for the changelog have a look: Changelog post
If you want to see my post with all useful links such as TWRP, magisk, xposed and more visit: useful post​
Basic Questions:
Q: How to get into Download Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume down + power on button until you see the download mode.
Q: How to get into Recovery Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume up + power on button until you see the recovery mode.
Q: My Phone is stuck at boot and doesn't start, what to do??
A: Update your bootloader and modem. Also make sure you have made a fresh install of the rom. Bootloader and Modem can be found in the OP. Another problem can be that you are didn't decrypt your phone. To fix this read below how to disable encryption.
Q: Do I need to update bootloader and modem after every update?
A: It's recommend to update your bootloader and modem everytime there is a new base yes. The developer will tell you if necessary on every rom changelog.
Q: I get verification failed at start up!?!? My phone is broken now?
A: Yes, you have to buy a new phone now. Just kidding You did not disable force encryption in TWRP (how to do so you will find below in how to decrypt your phone).
Q: I get verification FRP LOCK? WHYYYYYY???
A: Very simple answer, you did not enable OEM Unlock in developer options. Now you need to flash full rom with odin again and start from scratch. But don't forget to enable OEM Unlock this time!
Q: Which devices are supported at the moment?
A: Current supported devices are: SM-G930F/FD/K/L/S/W8. Snapdragons are NOT supported
Q: Is this rom working on Snapdragon 820 variants?
A: No, sadly not.
Q: I want to change something in my rom setup, how can I do that?
A: Simply reflash the same rom version without any wipe and than choose the correct things you want.
Q: Some features are not present in this rom, but they are on stock rom, so where are they?
A: In aroma installer you have the option to select bloat you want to install or not, you probably didn't select all package, this is why it's missing now.
Q: After a clean install my phone is overblated with many custom settings. What to do?
A: Open my romcontrol, grant it root permissions and then my default settings will be applied.
Q: Will you add X or Y feature?
A: You can kindly ask in the thread for that, if I like your suggestion I will think about adding it to the rom.
Q: You said you fixed SD card RW but Titanium Backup can't write to external SD card, why???
A: This is because of googles changes concerning SD card, to fix this open Titanium Backup, Menu, Preferences, Backup Folder Location, Storage provider and than hit DocumentProvider Storage and select your SD card. Problem solved
Q: I can't find X and Y mod. Please help
A: I've added many links and useful stuff to this post here. Hope that's what you have been looking for!
Q: I want to have my external storage like an internal as well. Google introduced it with android Marshmallow, but I can't see this option?
A: Just follow this Guide here and you can setup your SD card as normal storage
Q: I got a new strange icon appearing after nougat update. What's that?
A: This is a new advanced calling feature introduced in android nougat. Should make your call quality better or something like this. To hide it please visit following forum: Get rid of RCS icon
Questions concerning rom updates:
Q: Do I have to do a full wipe for the new version?
A: It is always the best option to make a clean install, otherwise please don't come and report bugs!
Q: But I don't want to make a full wipe when only small stuff changed!
A: For updates using the same bases you can install the rom with a dirty flash. BUT with a new base a clean install is highly recommend!
Q: What steps should I do to update to a new version with a full wipe but keep all data?
A: There are some different ways. One way is to make a backup with Titanium Backup, you can backup all Apps and Preferences there. Make sure to store this backup on external SD card (if you have one). Second way would be to save your data onto a google account or samsung cloud and restore it after a clean install.
Q: I miss an apk after rom update, how can I get it back?
A: Simply reflash rom and select "dirty flash" in aroma + select the app this time in aroma.
Q: My battery life is so bad and performance is very poor after an update!?!?
A: This comes actually not form the rom itself, dirty flash can cause problems even if only some small things have been changed. So simply install it clean again and it will solve your problem.
Q: Performance and battery is very poor even after clean install. What should I do now?
A: I assume you installed Xposed than, some modules can cause batterydrain and performance problems. So try to make a clean install of the rom WITHOUT xposed installed.
Questions about log and logcats:
Q: I got FC's and other Problems with the rom, what to do?
A: Take a logcat for me, developers use to say: without a log, it never happened . A logcat can be grabed with a PC and ADB installed, simply type: adb logcat > log.txt while your phone is connected and the error is happening. Same can be done if you have a terminal installed on your phone. Simply type adb logcat > log.txt and you will have the same output as on the PC.
Q: What kind of logs can I provide to help you?
A: Logcat: This one is for general infos about FC's
DMESG: this is for kernel related things
Last_Kmsg: this can be used after a random reboot
Q: How to get logs?
A: 1. Connect your phone to your pc
2. Make sure you got usb debugging enabled
3. Install Minimal ADB tool
4. After install open it and type: adb logcat > logcat.txt, adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log, adb shell cat proc/last_kmsg kmsg.log
5. Send me the file you got
You can also send me a log created by your phones terminal with the exact same commands!
Questions about RomControl:
Q: None of my romcontrol changes do anything, why are you such a bad dev!?!?
A: The problem is not on my end, you installed stock systemUI (which is STOCK and does not support one single mod). Use another one in aroma instead. The same thing can happen with good lock!
Q: Romcontrol gives FC's to me. HELP!
A: Very simple answer here: wipe data and cache from superman control application. Also make sure storage permissions are given to the romcontrol.
Q: Romcontrol still FC after cleaning data and cache!
A: Make sure you allow storage permission in main settings.
Q: I try to backup my current RomControl setup, but it won't work?
A: It works. Just make sure to enable storage permission in main samsung applicatoin settings. You will find it in internal sdcard under RomControl folder.
Q: I can't restore SuperMan control settings after a clean base update, why?
A: Backup for SuperMan control only works as long as you use the same version of the app, I mostly change very much things in new releases that's why it won't work there.
Q: SystemUI reboot doesn't work in SuperMan settings app, why?
A: Since Nougat update, you need to install busybox in order to get this button working. Without busybox the button will just do nothing.
Q: I enabled weather on lockscreen but I can't see anything...
A: You probably didn't setup or even installed samsungs weather widget. Without it weather on lockscreen won't work too. So reflash the rom with the widget installed this time and set it up.
How to go back to stock:
Q: I like to go back to stock rom, how is this possible?
A: I can provide you here all steps which are needed to go back to a full stock rom.
0. Make a backup and than wipe all partitions in TWRP
1. Go to Sammobile and choose your country
2. Download the file and the attached Odin on sammobile
3. After downloading, put your phone into download mode
4. Make sure drivers are installed and your pc can detect your phone in odin
5. If the box in odin turns blue, add the AP file to AP tab, BL file to BL tab, CP file to CP tab and CSC_HOME to CSC tab
6. Hit start and wait until it is finished.
7. Reboot and you have a stock rom again
Questions about Encryption:
Q: On TWRP there is an error about /data mount, what to do?
A: Your device is encrypted, follow the steps below to get rid of your encryption.
Q: Help, I never had a code and now after installing the rom my phone asks for a password??
A: Your device is still encrypted, on step 0 of my rom instructions it tells you to be sure you're not. So, what do you need to to in case you are still encrypted.
A: HOW TO DISABLE ENCRYPTION:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Select Wipe
3. Select format data
4. Then you manually need to type "yes" with the keyboard
5. Confirm the wipe (this will remove the encryption)
6. Reboot your recovery
Q: Is there a way to get rid of encryption which is simpler?
A: Not really, you could also wipe data with stock recovery but this is quite a big hassle so above method works better.
Q: And if I want to use this rom with encryption?
A: Normally we can use the stock kernel to encrypt our device, but since the Android 7.0 Nougat update samsung makes a check kernel sides to block deodexed roms from booting. This means that even the stock kernel is build by me to disable knox and tima. So encryption won't work there and you have to encrypt your device after you set up your phone. After that go to settings, security, encrypt device. It may need some additional steps to work...
Questions about CSC/Signal:
Q: Where has the CSC selection gone?
A: To include all csc files, the rom get way to big, so it got it's own thread now, take a look here: CSC installer
Q: I have a weak cellular signal, what can I do against it?
A: Two things: first, install your providers CSC using CSC installer and flash in TWRP or flashing stock CSC with Odin. Second Thing: You can install the modem from your provider, also find your modem on Sammobile and install it with Odin in CP tab.
Q: I don't have all sHealth features, how come?
A: Not all CSCs include this feature. I recommend to use AUT or DBT as it has the best compatibility!
Q: Can I flash MM CSC on N and vis a verse?
A: No, this is clearly not recommend! You can and will face call fc's!
Questions about Xposed:
Q: Does Xposed work yet on Android N 7.0?
A: No it does not! You will end up in a bootloop when you flash it on android N
Q: I selected xposed but now I don't see an app for it?
A: Maybe there went something wrong with installing the app to /data/app from my installer script. But xposed is actually installed only the app is missing, so head over to the download page of xposed app: Material Xposed Thread
Q: I selected xposed but the app shows not active or something else with xposed is not working.
A: This can have 2 reasons:
1. You have installed latest xposed version without installing magisk, magisk is required for most recent xposed version!
2. You used 86.2 xposed (which does not need magisk) but you did not install supersu. Since 86.2 does not use magisk to be systemless it uses supersu instead!
Questions about Magisk:
Q: How can I pass safetynet?
A: 1. Make sure to fully uninstall SuperSU by chainfire
2. Flash most recent 2.4.3 SuperStock Kernel
3. Flash Magisk V12
4. install latest Magisk Manager from playstore
5. Open Magiks Manager, go to settings
6. Enable MagiskHide, systemless hosts and systemless busybox
7. Reboot the phone and check safetynet!
Q: I got out of date binary issue?
A: Since Magisk V11.1 there is no need for phh root anymore. Everything is handled inside the MagiskManager apk!
Q: Where can I configure the root settings in Magisk?
A: Since Magisk V11.1 Magisk uses MagiskSU, you can find it in latest Magisk Manager V4.1
Questions about Snapchat:
Q: Even when I did not use xposed during my setup in rom I can't login to snapchat anymore!
A: Snapchat got updated and now detects even root access on your phone!
Q: What to do to login to snapchat then?
A: Clean install the rom without root and xposed and login to your snapchat, save the app with titanium backup, flash back xposed and root. For the next update of the rom just restore snapchat backup in TB.
Q: Any other possibility?
A: You could enable MagiskHide and check Snapchat inside it so root will be hidden from Snapchat. You will be able to perfectly login without any issues.
Q: I want to discuss this problem a bit deeper. Should I do so?
A: Do that, but this has nothing to do with this rom, so please go ahead and post your experience here on this Snapchat Thread.
Questions about Kernels:
Q: I want to switch kernel, how?
A: Since we have systemless xposed and systemless supersu, we have patches in ramdisk of boot.img. This means you have to reflash Magisk and supersu (or any other zip that changes some stuff in ramdisk partition) after every change of kernel!
Q: Synapse shows no UCI support!
A: Most comon issue is that no busybox is installed. Download the one from here: Latest busybox and flash it in recovery.
Q: I got random reboots, heeelp!
A: This is most likely from a custom kernel, if you face random reboots please check if you have the latest kernel installed or switch back to the stock kernel included in the rom.
Q: My screen is kind of yellow/orange and the touchscreen doesn't work at all!
A: You have chosen the wrong kernel in aroma selection. Reflash the rom without any wipe selecting the right kernel version.
Questions about Root:
Q: I lost root after installing this rom. What to do?
A: All mods (like supersu, phh's root, xposed and magisk) are stored in ramdisk of kernel boot.img. So if you flash this rom, and after this another kernel, simply reflash your preferred root method and it will work again!
Q: I selected phh root but my phone tells me I am not rooted!!
A: There are two possibilities:
1. You have mixed supersu/phh with magisk.
2. You did not install phhs root app from playstore.
Q: I get a warning about binary out of date. Help!
A: That happens on latest Magisk V11.1. Reason: Root has fully moved into Magisk Manager, no additional app required. Uninstall phh or supersu apps and only use magisk!
Q: I want to use su hide on my phone, how to do so?
A: Both below variants are outdated, I recommend to use Magisk with its build in MagiskHide. Check the thread: Magisk Thread
Link to phh's hidesu: Phh's thread

Hi,
I have a bit of a silly question. I have enabled the torch to be turned on by the volume button but now want to turn that function off and can't remember where i enabled it from. I have looked everywhere but can't find it. Are you able to point me in the right direction.
Many thanks.

Thanks that was driving me crazy.
downloadable files verification
Can some one verify that all of the downloadable files on the OP are the correct ones?
Can't seem to get it working, the steps I follow, are as following.
-> flash to stock rom from sammobile
-> OEM unlock
-> flash latest TWRP
-> in TWRP, format data
->install latest BL and CP from OP
-> flash rom -> Clean install
result is a non booting superman rom.. What can I do? I have been trying for DAYS now...

There are several reasons:
1. Encryption is still enabled
2. BL/CP was not successfull
3. You mixed your settings about G930F or G935F model
I noticed a few things in aroma log when it was installing
failure to boot.img extracting ramdisk failure, aborting, is this something that's causing the problem?
I am still not getting it right..

Right at this point I am wondering why snapchat doesn't want to log me in. There's no xposed or snapprefs on my phone, exposed uninstaller was flashed. Does this come familliar? There has to be a workaround without having to use bluestacks right?

Someone said that it even checks for root now
Okay, here's the solution. If you find yourself having trouble logging in in to snapchat on a rooted device without xposed framework installed. Make sure to search for xposed using root explorer, delete all system files manually.. For some reason xposed uninstaller did not completely remove every xposed file in my phone.

MEO StarAddict 6 root or firmware

Hello, if anyone could help me with this, I've tried to find firmware for this phone I've read in another thread it's from ZTE but no luck in their website, I want to root or update the firmware if anyone could help, currently the phone is freaking out not working properly. It's from Altice MEO and the name is StarAddict 6.
hello you can easily root your starradict 6 by the app named "KingRoot".
its safe and easy ,the app have his proper's root permissions manager's(exactly like super su) ,and works fine.You can also unroot your device by the KingRoot app too;(if you want to unroot definitively ,factory reset your device is hughly recommended)
For the firmware ,its more hard ,its need to use the DFU mode.
But for now i cant help you for where found the firmware.
one good solution is to make a dump of your firmware,its look like a backup in recovery,for mmake this im sure you can easily find how to make this on xda or google.
im looking for the firmware too ,if i found how and where to download it ,i post here for the starraddict community users.
friendly
I found the firmware boys

Found the password. I looked up the file name on google and it lead me to firmware247 which had the password there. (It's https://firmware247.com).
How to unbrick:
Get any SDCard on your PC and paste the l730.v1 folder inside the root of the sdcard.
Put it back on the phone.
While pressing both Vol +, Vol - press Power Button.
This will put you into the "recovery mode" (if you can call it that...) which will read the files and install them
If you've reached this far hopefully your phone is working again
ROOT with Magisk:
Download and install Dr. Fone root tool (make sure it's the root tool and not the management/backup tool)
Go into phone developer settings and enable OEM Unlocker and USB debugging
Root the phone with Dr. Fone root tool (it will ask to install supersu, accept it)
When you open supersu, DO NOT UPDATE THE BINARIES, or you will go into bootloop (happened to me at least)
Install magisk manager apk
Open magisk so you get the prompt to allow on it supersu
Restart magisk and super su app (for some reason some options don't appear on magisk if you don't do this)
Download and install (patch) magisk to directly.
Reboot as prompted by the tool.
Open supersu and go into options.
Select delete supersu and remove "root" (you will need to allow supersu root permissions on magisk)
That's it, you now have your phone rooted with magisk.
Unfortunately I wasn't able to find a way to fix safety net, please let me know if you do. (CTS Profile is flagged)
Edit: Organized the post and added small guide.

root storage full/add apps to super power saving mode

I want to add apps to the SPSM.
Already tried an app (don't know how it's called ~SPSM manager didn't work)
also tried apps which are supposed to move apps to /system but they didn't work, so i moved them with a root file manager - a few successful but now it doesn't work anymore
previously it said the storage is full but now it doesn't even print an error anymore
Tried a ton of root file manager no one works
any suggestions?
P.S. should i ask this this question in a other subforum?
