Small apps mod - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello. I'm new to the xperia z. I like the small apps feature but I would like to know if there's a mod or an xposed module to use any app as an small app. (if there is, can you post the link to it please) Thanks

So you want to use example Facebook or YouTube as a small app?
No chance

that's so sad.... Anyway thanks

1. Why uninstall? Never uninstall system apps if not sure it will work. There are apps that can freeze apps, then simply unfreeze if needed. Titanium backup can do this and much more like backup.
2. Don't know, never used launcher pro, xperia launcher are the best Imo
3. Choose yes to use wifi, and use an app to set it to use in eg Europe, Japan or wherever....search in xda for like gps faster fix.
As for 1 there's also a list on the web stating which system apps can be deleted or not. You risk fc and apps mot working properly as they depend on another, easy freezy are also an app to use for freezing apps
Easiest for you would be to install a custom rom, you need clockwork mod recovery and root then. Pm me if you need a guide

I'd advice you to keep from freezing / uninstalling apps if you don't know what they're for. It's not like you will get a huge performance improvement if you delete these, so I'd let them be.
You can freeze the LG launcher (or uninstall it if you want) as long as you have another launcher installed. This is required, otherwise you're in for disaster.
Thanks for a very quick reply
Just wanted to say after freezing some of the apps that i donf use i got a very good ram space and i feel that my device is now working much faster
Now what about freezing browser and lge hidden menu
And yeah what is rsstarter ??
thanks

It's for the Remote Screen service. If you don't use it, you don't need rsstarter. I removed it with no evident side effects.
BTW, thanks to SuperSkill I learned something new -- I didn't understand before what exactly "freezing" meant...
Thanks freezed it successfully..!
and yeah +1 to superskill from mr as well

You need to gain root access first then you can use something like xposed frame work.

I assume that you have root as you tried to remove Facebook plugins.
I suggest uninstalling Facebook and everything related to it, then just download it normally from the play store

Why doesn't screen overlay apps work on Mi3?

Apps like SwypePad or Fancy slider doesn't work on Mi3. These apps lets us select a part of the screen(the edges) as trigger to switch to their interface. For some reason, this doesn't work on Mi3.
Has anybody else encountered this problem? Can anyone provide a solution for this problem?
Duplicate post. Please remove mods!

Do you have an answer?
You need to give app permission for screen overlay. By getting into app info is one way of giving permission.

Modifications - Nexus 6

Question what is a good alternative to add customizations to my ROM. I use to use exposed but don't think it works on the nexus6. If I am wrong about exposed working please let me know if there is a special way to install it.
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
exposed does not work on art, period. android 5.0 brings art to our devices, by default. whatever modifications you would like to make to your nexus 6 has to be a "real" modification that you can do to n6.
Well for starters I want to add the exchange block. Led notification and others. Is there a program like xposed with a repository of mods like xposed?
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
The LED mod can be added with a kernel along with DT2W, you can also use lightflow free to enable the LEDS using mixer mode to set notification lights e.c.t
Check the lighg flow instructions in its thread or one of the many how to guids online.
