    True tempered glass screen protector for S7 Edge

    I've bought about 3 now from different suppliers on eBay claiming to be 3D tempered glass for S7 Edge, and all have been the flimsy film-like protectors that are utterly hopeless, and not the hardened plastic-like protectors that I've had for all other phones I've bought them for. Are there any...

    Wifi/GSM signal bar chart

    On the S4, you could click on the battery graph and it would expand also showing how often your wifi was on/off, gsm signal quality etc. Is there any way of showing this information on the S7?

    Mini-today widget alternative?

    The one who must be obeyed uses her google calendar extensively (via s-planner) historically in all her previous phones (Notes 1+3). She always used a "mini-today" widget that shows the current day's events. However, on the S7, the only s-planner widget is a monthly view. Is there a way to get...

    A flash too far?

    Help App to edit the SIM card phone number

    I can edit the actual sim card phone number on a rooted phone via Xposed, or I can put the sim card in an old blackberry/sony ericson and do it this way. It just seems strange to me that age-old phones can do this, but it can't be done on any of the Sammy smartphones. Is there an app that...

    Root [International] Danvdh ROMs

    I've been using Danvdh's (a wonderful developer over on XDA) ROMs for about 6 months now, and for reasons unbeknownst to me, during all of this time, I've never started a thread highlighting this excellent fella's work. Sorry Dan. Historically, through my S2 days, and my initial few months on...

    Root [International] To new bootloader, or not to newbootloader?

    This is a bit of a water tester topic. I'm still on the old bootloader (MGA) with MH1 LTE Modem. I'm wondering if any of you who have upgraded to the new bootloader have noticed any improvements in LTE and wifi (performance/stabilty/reliability)? I'm not bothered at all about tripping knox as...

    Help Internet connection dropping on wifi

    She who must be obeyed has a Note (N7000) which has been working without issues for almost 2 years, but over this last week it's developed an internet/wifi connection drop-out issue. See thread I know it's for an N7000, but searching this can be a generic problem for any device, and I would...

    Help Wifi constantly dropping

    Her indoors has had this Note for almost 2 years now without any problems, but a strange problem has started over this last week, whereby internet connection keeps dropping. The wifi icon is still in the statusbar with full bars, but no internet. the activity arrows only light up rarely. If I...

    Help GMail unread notification counter

    I've seen apps on Play Store to show the unread email counter on the GMail icon, but I was wondering if there is any way to do this without the need to install a 3rd party app (I'm on TouchWiz) Edit: Just installed one of them, and it still isnt showing the counter. It only appears on its own...

    Root [International] Daydream Clock

    I used to like the Daydream clock function of Rootbox on the S2, whereby a dim clock is shown during Daydream mode (settings>display>daydream) Samsung's daydream has all the other completely useless features (colours/photos) but no clock. Typical bloody Sammy! :( If you want the clock...

    Phone Logs View By Option Not Sticking

    I just found this bug on MGA firmware, whereby the View By option always returns to "All Logs" after the Phone app is closed. I usually set this option to "All Calls" so its annoying as every time I go back into the Phone app, I see all my text messages again, and have to reset the option...

    Dolphin Browser Beta

    Since my S2 days, I've always been pretty much a stock browser kinda fella. I would try the others out briefly, but always end up back on stock. On the S4 however, I've been using a mixture of stock and Chrome, with probably Chrome edging it for me. That was before I put on Dolphin Browser...

    Root [International] Xxubmgc?

    Probably a mis-print in either firmware version or changelist, but on Samsung Updates Latest Firmware - LIVE! there appears to be XXUBMGC released today, but it has the same changelist as XXUBMGA (1081224) Worth keeping an eye on it...

    Root [International] GS4 Wipe Scripts

    Finally got round to converting my wipe scripts over to the GS4. Kernel wipe is very basic (as I don't know of any GS4 kernel-specific files/folders as yet) but the rest are pretty much as per the GS2 (apart from ROM-specific file/folder removal) All scripts are Beta, so expect a few niggles...

    Google Play 4.0.25

    Posted here to make everyone aware of the new Play Store that is available. I would guess that you need to be rooted to install now, but you will all be getting this sooner or later. Totally new interface, and very nice it is too. Apart from the big UI change, the only difference I can see in...

    AdvanceS Lidroid Settings IMEI Exploit

    It's almost certainly not malicious, but code has been found in the Lidroid settings application that sends your location and IMEI number to a web server. This program is used in most custom ROMs to configure your status bar toggles. I've created a flashable zip that has this suspicious...
