Hi,
I have the HD 8 2017 with google play and nova launcher installed. And I managed to hide the amazon apps from this thread. I only installed very few apps like Google Chrome, Facebook, Youtube, Netflix.
But few from these apps like facebook and netflix (somethimes youtube) is running in background when I check the running applications and it eat some of the RAM on my devices. I need to stop this manually to free up the ram. And soon it will auto-start again.
Just like to know if there is an app killer/disabler that I can use to stop this apps from auto-starting. Or kill the apps immediately after using it.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks! But not able to use Greenify. Tried it but I cannot enable or grant permission on the accessibility settings. I have enabled it but still prompting on the app to enable permission.

Have you tried naptime? To run unrooted you just have to run a couple of adb commands.

Yes they are, but I also just realized that in the playstore it says Android 6.0 and up which is my bad for not realizing sooner so it may not work. But worth a try.

@jhannbernas & @THERAJ12 you can try an app in the play store called Brevent though, that should work on the tablets.

This is the error I'm getting when trying to install some apks. A lot of others worked but some just won't. It's a new phone and a fresh ROM. Why is this happening? What do I do about it?

One of the apps which did it was Battery Widget Reborn. I initially tried installing it via .apk and got the error. Then the same app normally installed via Play store.

Not trying to be snarky, but what good is a smartphone without internet access? Sounds like a $400 paperweight. Are you running a virus scanner that could possibly be blocking sideloading?

I'm having a similar issue. I've been using a slingplayer app that I downloaded over two years ago. I had it working on my Nexus 5 until I switched to ART. After the switch it wouldn't install. I switched back to Dalvik and now it won't reinstall. I can and have installed every other apk on my phone with no problem since switching back except for this one. Any suggestions?

Tried that and it didn't work, but...
PROBLEM SOLVED! What I did was to do a thorough search inside my root to find anything related to the app I was trying to install. I found out that the app has somewhat partially installed in few places. I then deleted all of those and tried installing again. Worked.

I also tried switching between Dalvik and ART but it didn't seem to change anything. I suggest you search your root for any remnants of the app you want to install. Look in data/app, data/app-lib, data/data and system/app.
I saw this posted somewhere and thought it would be useful for those on the 3 network in the UK with poor reception at home.

You got a poor signal at home on the THREE Network?
Spoken to THREE yesterday (I'm on the 3,2,1 pay as you go plan) and told them about the poor signal at home and asked them about "HOME SIGNAL", they informed me that this is only available to people "on contract".
They offered me an APP (Which is still in the BETA stage), called "THREE IN TOUCH", which allows you to call and send and receive texts over a wi-fi connection ) [using your phone number]. (They send you a text with the appropriate link).
They informed me that whilst this is in BETA stage, calls and texts are FREE, yes free. The APP goes live on the 27th July 2014. After this date, calls and texts will be charged at standard rates (i.e. 3p / min, 2p / text).
So just to let all the THREE pay as you go people know about this, thought I'd share.

If it's a 3 contract, then presumably yes. It's intended for 3 customers only.
I didn't realise that an activation was needed. I'll add that to the first post. Thank you.
I've just tried RootCloak (with XPosed etc) but Three Intouch still wouldn't run. Also tried RootCloak Plus (with Cydia and SELinux) and that didn't work either. I'm runnng Phoenix ROM 8.0 (Android 4.4.2) on a Galaxy S4. Any other rooted S4 users having any luck with Three Intouch?

I don't even get as far as attempting to activate - the app won't start up because it detects that I am rooted.
Just tried Three inTouch today. Works okay. There's certainly a few features it needs adding before it's ready for full-time use though.

You may have got "Three In Touch" working with Rootcloak by now but, just in case you haven't then I confirm that several of us have found that the released version does work with RootCloak. The thing to do is to ensure "Three In Touch" is not installed and started BEFORE you manualy add the app to RootCloak. If you had installed it and tried to run it on a rooted phone BEFORE installing RootCloak then completely uninstall it, install it once again, make sure the app is added to RootCloak then fire it up. It should now work.
Today I decided to go back to stock. And so I did and the i rooted.
But i inatalled GMusicFS and it says i don't have root, even having SuperSU and other APPs say I have. Can anybody help me with that?
Personally I think it's an issue with the app. It does not appear it's been updated for marshmallow.

there is a way but it needs to be 7.0, and you have to tweak some things and be rooted of course
I have it working on my Note 5 running 6.0.1.
How I got it to work:
Download the Xposed Installer app.
Download the Assistant Enabler module.
Use Google App version 6.6.17.21 arm.
I use this version because I read and tried the updated versions and they removed the feature.

This worked for me. Darthstalker v11. There is actually a separate Xposed module called enable Google assistant. So you don't need the full Android n-ify module. The only issue I'm having is that it won't remember my voice. Everyone I say "ok Google" it asks me to retain my voice.

It is activated by long press home button. was doing so. but change language and stopped working.
I can confirm that this method works on my TMO note 5 running N5 Express V2.0 as well. I have some display flashing issues when using the Androidn-ify that was listed on droid ape but i just typed that into the modual section of Xposed and got the enabler for it to work.
Make sure all the permissions are set up properly or there could be network issues. Speaking from experience with it its not fun. Other that that working flawlessly Using mymmx's method

Hey, I was wondering if there is a way to disable/uninstall system apps without root. In this specific case, I would like to remove YouTube and Google Duo, however, I tried to disable + force stop the apps but they reappear after a while. Next I tried to disable them via ADB but even then they reappeared like nothing happened.
I'm currently using a OnePlus 7 Pro on the latest OOS, I rather not root the phone just yet. As I don't want to void my UK warranty.
Any suggestions would be welcome
