[APP CONCEPT] Rom manager redesign.

so i was keeping this to myself as it was going into real development as a new application but before it really took off its development has died so i thought id show you all what i was working on.
basically i wanted an app that would bring roms, kernels and their developers to the forefront; at the same time providing a way to manage your currently installed configs, in a similar fashion to rom manger.
seeing as development has died i've decided to share this as an idea on how 'I' would like to see a rom manager application look. the app was heavily inspired by the google card UI and the android play store. hope you like it and if anyone would like to use the concept be my guest.
i think the images below is pretty self explanatory so enjoy.
EDIT: sorry about the huge image size.

[TOOL] chef droid - online tool to remove system apps / bloatware

Hey there,
A few years ago I developed this platform for android devices that allows you to generate a ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM) script file to remove system apps or bloatware. I published on the SGS and SGS2 foruns but since it can be used by any android device I'm also posting here.
chef droid - http://www.chef-droid.net/en/
(chrome web app - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...nflldjonoogognbdl?hl=en-US&hc=search&hcp=main)
disclaimer:
All functionalities were tested on SGS / SGS2 and have been used for a while without any reported problems, but as always by generating and using a chef droid script you know that you're using it with your own risk.

Hello all,
chef droid will go down on Dec 19 so make sure you create all your scripts until that date.

[Q] Titanium backup pro version?

What are the benefits of it? I have the free version and I don't see why everyone likes it so much, but I'm not very good with technical things, so I can easily be missing something. I want to get it to restore my nandroid backup, but I don't see any other point and I don't really wanna pay for $7 it if that's the only thing I would use it for.

Thanks for the answer! That sounds very useful, I'm probably going to end up being it.

I've been using it for many years. It's the one and the only ultimate backup tool for android.

Is there anyway to backup apps to the SD card? I tired to restore my nandroid backup using titanium backup, but it got stuck at 14%. I assume that's cause I ran out of storage space. Is there anyway to automatically backup the apps to the SD card and not do it one by one?

Got TWRP installed and SU rooted it, have a question about making a backup,

}
I made a backup with TWRP and checked system only, do I need to have data and boot checked also for the backup to work?

Um..
I really don't mean to be rude here. I really and truly don't.
But the reality is that you probably shouldn't be doing any of this without learning more about how Android works.
That's going to take some time, and patience, and will require that you do a significant amount of reading.
For your specific question, I'd suggest starting here.
I'd also have a look over here.

Thanks, I read both links, may practice with an old phone so I dont brick this one. I did accomplish the mission of getting root on it so I can bypass verizons damn hotspot block so mom can watch amazon video now and have wifi for her home.

Best custom rom for samsung s7 (SM-G935F) - low memory usage -> criptomining rig

Hi, I have always followed you and I believe that ONLY on XDA you can find the best content. I am writing from Italy and together with a friend we are giving new life to old mobile phones that would otherwise be thrown away. We managed to find over 50 old s7 edge SM-G935F and now we would like to create a small homemade cryptomining rig through termux + xmrig, Something like this:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
We have tried some of your great custom roms but are still not convinced that we have found the best one for our purpose.
Here are the only things we need:
1.Termux app
2.OTG (ethernet) connection
3.Remote connection to the device
4.Kernel
5.cpu / gpu
All the services that are normally installed on the roms would take up useless memory. In your immense experience, which Rom can we use for our project?
Any advice is appreciated!
