Android 4.3 introduced a new permission management feature "App Ops", and you can disable permissions that you don't want app to use. It's a big improvement for securing your device and protecting your privacy. But it's not visible to users, and you have to open it by a shortcut app.
"App Ops" is not perfect now, maybe it's the reason why they hide it. I hope to see it's improved and released in Android 5.0.
yes, and you can try "App Ops Launcher" on play store to launch the "App ops" on android 4.3, it is just only 7kb. Scan this to install on you device to have a try!

The appholcs permission manager that everyone downloaded at first requires you to pay now
This permission manager (launches app ops) is FREE and doesn't contain ads or anything else: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.facelock.permissionmanager
and does the same thing
Is this some kind of new joint advertisement thing in town?

Hope you guys have some ideas on this.
I take it chrome is your default browser, check in the settings for chrome, or reset the to default.
Aha! I like it acctually, so this is what you get if you download latest Chrome?
Edit: No I don't have it
Looking at where it's linking to I'd say some crapware app put it there.
Googling mobirowser.com gives the whois records for some shady sites, probably link sites to get add referrals.
Start by removing apps you installed last or don't need.

sounds feasable. Try downloading addons detector and running that. That app is very good at finding that sort of thing...
Found it!
It turned out to be an unofficial rotten tomatoes app.

if i click disable i get this message saying some nonsense about device administrator.
when i click OK it just closes.
so i went to settings - security - device admin. and of course there was no Google item there and all the 3 items i had there were NOT selected.
searching was mostly futile as that keyword filled the internet because people flash custom roms and forget to read about the gapps part i did found one thread saying that you have to remove all Google accounts before updating this... but if i remove all Google accounts i won't even be able to freaking open the play store...
what am i missing here?

Use your Fingerprint to launch apps quickly. You can set each of your fingers to open different apps
Want to open an App real quick? Tired of using gestures? Want a faster way to open hidden App? The FingerPrint Launcher is the right one for you.
The FingerPrint Launcher allows you to open an app real quick with a touch of a button, anywhere and anytime. You just have to just select which finger launches which app*, then you hold down the menu button and let the app scan your finger and your done. The app is immediately launched.
You can replace your traditional app lock software which consumes a lot of battery with the help of this App. Most Launcher comes with a hide an app option. So just hide the app and set FingerPrint Launcher as the easiest way to open your hidden app** .Instead of using gestures to open an app which any one can do, the fingerprint remains your alone.
The app uses long press homebutton to start scanning the fingerprint.
Should work with All Samsung Mobile with fingerprint sensor support having android OS 4.4.2+

Hi XDA, I need some assistance in finding the APK for the stock android wear stopwatch. Prior to 6.0.1, I had both the Samsung stopwatch and the stock Google stopwatch, after installing the update I could not find the stock stopwatch anywhere on the watch, I have attempted to search thru OTA and system dumps for the APK but so far I have had no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.
P.S. Here is the app I am talking about.

}
Update
So after finding a pull of the system from July 2014, I have found that the stopwatch is contained within the DeskClockMicroApp.apk and its matching .odex file, now I need some assistance as the apk has a conflicting package name with the clock app currently installed.
Update 2: Progress
So I have decompiled the apk, changed the package name, and recompiled and signed with a debug key. The app works when launched via voice actions and set as default stopwatch HOWEVER it does not show up in either the native app drawer or wear mini launcher (It also does not show up in the app drawer when installed to my phone, however, creating a shortcut within activity launcher allows launching and using the app)
So here I am, the app works but you have to use voice actions, if anyone knows how to fix the icon, please reply.
Hey everybody.
I'm trying to start my McDonald's app but it always gives me this message where it says that my device doesnot pass the security check. I tried magisk hide, I deleted app data and reinstalled, i deleted the twrp folder in the root of my phone. It still gives me this message and i really don't know what to do. there has to be a solution. Please help

It's a long term issue with McDonald's own paranoid security check. There's a chance it's also country specific, as I no longer have that problem recently. At least I can open the app and see ongoing promos. But I haven't tested redeeming coupons and such.
use my tutorial for mario kart, works with mcdonalds app and many others who detect root.
