Wow, such a list. :laugh:
Have you ever used Niagara Launcher ? For me, it's the best launcher i found. You should definitively give it a try :good:

-Lawnchair 2 as launcher (grab it from xda labs or apkmirror, as only lawnchair 1 is on the play store)
-solid explorer as file manager as it just is a great all around experience
-youtube vanced
-spotify
-hex installer for an extensive dark more theme
-gboard
-blokada for ad blocking

Indeed, Youtube Vanced is a must have apps.
I'm looking for a Gboard alternative but didn't found it yet.
Have you ever try CxExplorer instead of Solid Explorer ? I'm still with stock explorer, but l'd like a new one with FTP support.

Use your private dns as an adblocker it is a lot better dns.adguard.com

I use dns.adguard.com in private DNS or you can add dns.family.adguard.com to block Porn etc.

Gonna definitively use that dns! Thanks mate!

Nice UI, smooth, quick, many built-in option, active development, you can contribute on github (either code, either give ideas) and probably many other reason.
Before, I was using Lawnchair 2, then OOS Launcher, Nova, Action Launcher, and many others. And this one definitively match my usage, fast and minimal.
I'd say i fell in love for this one, but this is purely subjective.

I only just started using lawnchair, the only gripe is in the app draw folders its not possible to change the apps around in order of importance. Its obviously alphabetical only.

Hi all
I am using 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com in my private DNS, and "Block This" apps.
So just private DNS dns.adguard.com is enough? And its better off than 1dot1dot1dot1.cloudflare-dns.com?
Thanks in advance.

Looking for app to keep other apps from being killed

Hi All,
Most people are looking for apps to kill other apps when they are running - I'm actually looking for the opposite. Phone keeps killing apps to free up some RAM here and there, and some of the apps to not restart themselves. Are there any good apps out there that can be used to monitor specific apps and restart them if they are killed by the system?
Thanks!
What ROM are you running? You can try an app called AutoMemoryManager and play around with the values there. See which apps fall into which categories and go from there. I have this same problem with my music sometimes. This seemed to help. It's not exactly what youre looking for, but the app is supposed to prevent apps from being killed as quickly.

Did you tried V6 Supercharger by Zeppelinrox? (Is not an app is a huge script that contain another scripts inside "bulletproof" is what you need).

Correct. Solves it enough that the apps I wanted to stay active throughout the day are still active at this time - typically many of them have been killed by now (just checked, the only one that has been killed off is C Locker Pro, and I may have inadvertently killed it myself earlier).

[Request] Scrolling wallpaper

I have tried the numerous live wallpaper workarounds but still prefer the native wallpaper scrolling. Is there any way to enable this on a stock based rom similar to how Viper's launcher has it? I have tried looking in default.xml, Prism.apk, SystemUI but have yet to find anything. If anyone knows of a working exposed module or tutorial for how to force, please let me know. Thanks!

For whatever reason, scrolling wallpaper still works with some launchers. I have it working with ADW EX and I've heard at least Go Launcher described as still working. I just don't like the way ADW scrolls wallpaper.
Does anyone understand why we have an issue? Is there some way that AOSP Android allows for scrolling, and this is not working in KitKat or Sense has broken it? I've read Nova used to have a force scrolling option that was removed. Does anyone still have it working on that older version? Why was that option removed?
For me, with Solo launcher, wallpaper scrolling doesn't work. Themer, it doesn't work, Go Launcher scrolling works fine. I even like the transition, which makes sense, as opposed to the way ADW transitions. What a stupid way to choose which launcher I will use.
I guess I don't care about icons and traditional themes, though I'm definitely impressed with Themer's abilities, it's just not what I'm looking for... Just scrolling wallpaper, please.

Same feelings here for Nova. I love everything else about it. I continually try new CM nightlies but then miss the duo cam and IR features.
Edit: Oh and the main one, swipe to wake
I'm going to update this post later. There's several live wallpaper apps that restore wallpaper scrolling. I think the one in using now is landscape wallpaper. It works completely and invisibly, as if scrolling was miraculously restored. I even like being able to auto-switch walls on unlock.
EDIT:
Landscape Wallpaper - PROS: Better settings than WC, IMO; gives you lockscreen wall control, "scrolling direction," "scrolling source" of simulated or launcher (method), elastic effects, and image quality.; if choose simulated scrolling source, has further scrolling effects! (almost won me over with this... if could add "border mode" option to infinite scroll wallpaper (visible edge/seam, not jump/scroll back), I'd donate/buy this) CONS: Maybe a PRO, scrolls wall behind app drawer, but can't disable this. Can't create "albums" to choose from; only single image or folder
Wallpaper Changer - PROS: can create albums from single file, folder, or individually selected images from multiple locations and switch between them at will!; simple and works well. CONS: settings seemed glitchy or quirky for me; can add, but apparently not remove individual images from albums!?
Scrolling Live Wallpaper - Pretty simple, it adds wallpaper scrolling and worked for me. I don't remember it being bad, but I hated that when I took a screenshot, it became obvious it lowered the resolution/quality of the wallpaper dramatically, probably for performance. I don't think it had an option to disable this. It also scrolled unnaturally, imo. I think it simulated the scrolling effect, but poorly.
Wallpaper Wizardrii - I'm pretty sure I read this will enable scrolling for launchers that don't support it. I didn't try it. Looks popular, but has tons of wallpaper wizard effects that I don't need or want.
TIP: If using stock lockscreen, and maybe regardless, along with 3rd party default homescreen -- set same live wallpaper as wallpaper in Blinkfeed or stock launcher (settings same, regardless of launcher). Annoying when choosing single or small set of images; after a reboot, I always had a non-chosen wallpaper load, then refresh with expected live wallpaper after homescreen loads.

The latest Nova beta that came out today has an option to force wallpaper scrolling that works great.

How get access to live wallpaper in s7 android 7:

Hi guys I searched forum and there's no any evidence how get access to live wallpaper in s7 android 7 samsung removed but you access by a third party app name is (live wallpaper shortcut) and it is free on play store and another app called (lwp manager pro) it was free and good and play decided to remove it I don't know why but I have the app and I can create a apk file if xda allow me to share don't worry it not a warez app but it was a was free pro app at first time if want to know.
ok hope this post help a lot and I have a special gift for christmas.
update: I find some evidence that might help my post check the link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/s7-edge/themes/app-7-0-live-wallpaper-picker-home-lock-t3503347
If using Nova Launcher, Long press the homescreen > Wallpapers > scroll right to live wallpapers
Those live wallpaper shortcut apps are still available on the play store, no need to upload apks
I don't use nova I prefer original launcher and use a app to access live wallpapers (lwp manager pro removed from play store) or you can use (live wallpaper shortcut).
samsung get a little unkindness in android 7 I don't why but I I think in Android 8 will be add this I hope.

Very useful apps working without root

I'll root my device but not for the moment. In the meanwhile, I suggest these useful "no root" apps to perform tasks for which we usually use apps needing root:
- For adblock, Block this: this a VPN based adblocker, works very fine, free
- To hybernate some apps, Hybernator: manual hybernation or automated hybernation when screen off, free (not free for system apps)
- To prevent apps autostart at boot, All-In-One Toolbox, free
- To increase number of volume steps, Precise Volume, free (pro version not free)
Pls give further suggestions if you have some...
Guess your already making themes and apps for the xz2 @nreuge nice bro congrats we will miss you back at the z5 community
I'd suggest (and I'm already using) this one: NetGuard - No-root firewall by M66B. Btw, this great app can also block ads :good:

Yes bro, I can confirm, with your script you get rid of many unwanted apps - without root! It's a bat file, means you simply connect your phone with your pc and double-click the bat file via shell. The device reboots automatically when finished. The only two things you have to consider:
1. USB Debugging must be on in developer settings
2. If there's an app which has already been updated before running the script, you can simply use settings > apps to remove that apps.
But I guess, there will be a better description when you'll release it
@serajr
A big thanks to you - awesome work as always my friend! :good::highfive:

Picture Manager is an awesome app to consolidate your 3 different 100andro folders because you flashed too many different ROMs and have always new DSC0001.jpg pictures.
Custom Navigation Bar also rocks!
Ruthless (Pixel 2) Launcher is an awesome launcher with plenty of customizations.
I recommend it.

for pictures/photos there is only one - quickpic, been using it for years, it has every conceivable option possible and has no bloat, the main reason I ever explored the need for a 3rd party app was because the standard Sony Album didn't allow you to exclude folders, it really is extremely good

Lspeed is always a must. I've enabled all the performance options which don't affect battery life. XZ2 is still more than powerful, but even more power can't harm ^^
On the contrary, you can enable the battery options (which affect performance). This is the magic of Lspeed, you can do whatever you want

I think the YouTube you're thinking of is called OG YouTube.
As for black email clients, I've been using the Samsung one. It's a little different to get used to but not bad.
Bromite, open source Chromium without Google's crap, if you care about that
Newpipe, very lightweight YouTube client with downloads and dark mode.

Does the Samsung one use alot of battery to a point of concern?

I just started using it last night and didn't check the battery use tonight before charging my phone. I'll check it out tomorrow night and let you know.

I have the Samsung email client set to sync Auto when received.
It's not using hardly any battery at all.
Check out YouTube Vanced - it's the regular YouTube client but with all the ads removed, has black mode, background play, and a lot more features! It's basically the way YouTube should have been designed in the first place!

i second that. youtube vanced all the way. been using it since my s8+. can't be any happier
even though download doesn't actually work for me. never seen the option even
so i use snaptube along with it
For email im using TypeApp which has a dark theme and fairly customizeable appearance and can support multiple email accounts. Its not on f-droid however so if you dont have/want to use google play store you may be able to find the APK for it online.
If you use the hex theme creator it sets gmail background to whatever you themed background colour to.

Thanks for the suggestion, how does the application work? I tried to make it work but am not sure how to get it to work. Is it like substratum?

If you personalise, setup the colours and settings you want. Then at the bottom build theme. Once that has finished, go to theme store and apply the hex theme.
Gmail, Google Photos, Play store and some others will theme.
The only issue I have found is multiple accounts in gmail I have to select the account swipe out of the app and back in every time I change account.

Interesting, I'll have a thorough look at the app hopefully it's as simple as you make it out to be. Cuz it comes packaged with two apps one being the theme selection store and then one of your own personal customisation. Also do you have to reapply the themes after every boot up? Or after every update do you have to uninstall each overlays like substratum if you wish to update?

Forget to mention that you need to turn on night mode in the hex app.
No the theme stays there all the time, when you make changes though, it seems that you have to apply the default theme then apply hex theme again.

Oh ok, I found the plugin apk, you can try installing see if this fixes the problem.

Thanks man! Where did you find/ or can I find more plug ins?
Also I'll give this a shot and see how it goes. Hopefully it doesn't drain or consume too much battery

There seems to be more components missing and this isn't as simple to do as they make it out. I wish there was a page or resource with all the apks needed to make this app work.

There is this thread here which talks about the app but I think the thread is about theme or similar, I'm a little confused about it.
