I have used SuperOneClick to root my phone, and am now trying to use it to enable non-market aps. When I do, I get the following message:
Checking value... (requires root)
Non-market applications are disabled.
Allow non-market apps... (requires root)
OK
Checking value... (requires root)
FAILED​
Can anyone let me know what I need to do to enable non-market aps?
Did you try a non market app Install to make sure it wasn't working?

Bro...same thing here. What I did was flash to just about any rom and the rom will allow to install non market apps. Also, on the market there is an app that allows you to install apps from the SD card. So you could go to getandroidstuff.com and download the .apk, put on your cappy, and use the app to install. But personally I like the ROM! Yee

Sorry, I never got an e-mail that I got a reply.
Yes, I've tried to download the new Amazon market but get an error message that I can't install non-market aps.
There is a second way. It involves tibu and a brain.
1. Find settings storage in an Sqlite editor, I use sqlite from the market, it costs money but it is worth it.
2. Find the database in settings storage and open it
3. Click on secure
4.look at the first column, find allow non market apps.
Change the value for the non market apps from 0 to 1
5. Save the database.
You may need to reboot but that shouldn't be necessary
If it is already a 1 then change it to a zero and save then do it again.
Also before you do this download the super one click again and try it with the newly downloaded one click.

This is a list of safe apps to remove from the stock rom that comes loaded on our Nexus 4.
All of these were removed without any problems or force closes... Please feel free to add to the list
Must be rooted to remove most of these... I'm pretty sure there is more that can be removed, I just haven't tested yet.
After removing most of these, it's a good idea to go into recover and whipe cache partition and wipe davlik.

If you remove any system apps, future updates will fail. You will need to replace all the apps removed with the proper permissions or you will need to flash system.img before applying the update.

I have root on my N4, when you say remove, are you referring to the "disable" option under the apps menu? Also, not all the apps on this list are in the apps section, how do you recommend removing those? Tibu?

It is safe to disable but if you remove any of these, updates will fail unless you re-flash or put the apps back with the proper permissions. I don't recommend removing any of them. Just disable what you don't want to use.

Thanks, when you say "updates", are you referring to Android updates? So to get an update, do the apps need to be enabled first (if disabled)? Also, whats the difference between disabling them and removing them? I assume disabling means they are taking up disk space on the phone but not running while removing means they are wiped from the phone?

When we say updates, we mean updates to the OS. For example, going from 4.2 to 4.3. If you disable the apps, the OS updates will apply without a problem so there is no need to re-enable them. You are correct, disabling them just prevents them from running but they are still there. Removing them is deleting the .apk file. Even re-naming the .apk file will cause OS updates to fail. Each OS update looks for all the .apk files and if it can't find any of them, the update fails.

Cheers Thanks for the info!
Hi is it possible to unroot the z1 only to be able to use an app that controls for root and doesn't work with root?
Not sure I got this - so you have an app that checks for root access and doesn't want to run if root is available? May I ask what app that is?
I'm not an expert, but have you tried disabling superuser access in SuperSU/Superuser? Although I guess that might not be enough.
In my case it's timvision. It's an Italian app to watch movies. As I start the movie playback it tells me it can't be played due to root. I tried to uncheck the option in supersu but it doesn't work.
i think what you are searching is an app called rootcloak
you can select for which app you dont want to show that you are rooted :good:
App tried but didn't work.
I'm afraid solution is complete unroot, I'm Italian too (hi there ), and when I try to use sky go it blocks some functions because of root
When you have disabled the option in supersu then clear cache and data on the app you want to use and try again

Yes.
Freezing is just a method of renaming a system app. Unfreezing ALL of them too.
Being unlocked or safe strapped I always backed up my virgin system before making any modds so an update would go with just flashing stock recovery. Hiding root is needed sometimes too.
Thanks for your answer. I will just unfreeze freezed apps once 5.0 is available.

It depends on how you freeze them.
Every OTA so far has included a pre-flash validation check for the phone. It scans the phone for particular files and parts, for their existence and to make sure their checksum or SHA hash the expected versions BEFORE the OTA will install. Any method that renames, deletes, or otherwise modifies the APK and/or ODEX file for stock apps can cause an OTA install to fail.
If you use the phone's built in App Manager (Settings -> Apps -> open the entry for the app you want, then hit DISABLE, or Uninstall Updates then Disable), you are fine.
If you use something like Titanium Backup to Freeze them, you will likely be ok, but keep in mind that when some past OTA's came out (think 4.2.2 and 4.4), using Titanium to freeze apps did cause the OTA to fail for some people.
Using a root capable file explorer to manually rename, delete, or otherwise modify the APK and/or ODEX file can also cause an OTA install to fail.
This is why you see so many say that "you need to be stock to take an OTA"

If you RENAME a system app that the OTA's Pre-flash validation steps look for, the OTA will fail. So any method of "freezing apps" that involves renaming the APK or ODEX files certainly can cause an OTA install to fail.
But of course, if the APK/ODEX you rename is NOT looked at during pre-flash validation, then the OTA will not fail.
Hi KidJoe, thanks for your explanation. I use Android Tuner and freeze apps such as spotlight, hangout, Google+, Live Wallpaper... I can unfreeze. Is it OK to do like that?

I haven't used that app. Best thing to say is take an app that you know what the apk name is, use Android Tuner to freeze it, then use a root capable file explorer to look for the apk. If it's still named correctly and located in the original place on the phone, then you should be ok.
samsung note 8 system applications can not be updated to the new version from the apk file (the original manufacturer file from apkmirror) the system shows the application not installed without any information about the error. It does not install any updates from Samsung Apps. My applications - empty, does not detect anything. Same Google Play. For example, the camera version 7.62.2 in the phone, and the new one is 8.50, you can not update it, so do the other system.

He meant, some of the Samsung system apps doesn't show updates available in the Galaxy Apps store or Play Store. There are updates to certain apps, like the camera and dialer on APK Mirror, but when you download them and try to install them, it gives an error and says the app wasn't installed. That is his issue, that he can't update some of his apps.

Some of the apps you're trying to update, like the camera, can't be updated by side-loading or downloading an APK, because it's a system app. You can't update system apps. In the case of the camera, I wouldn't want to update that anyway, because even though it's a higher version, it's not necessarily meant for the Galaxy Note 8, because the "newer" versions remove the ability to use the optical 2x zoom, which I'm sure isn't supposed to happen. I think those are updated camera APKs for different models, maybe like the A- or J-series.
What you could do, if you are rooted, is to just replace the system APKs with the updated ones you downloaded, but I wouldn't recommend that, because sometimes the updates to system apps might also depend on updates to other library files which you don't get with the APK or can't download and then might cause some problems and issues.
As far as your question about Bixy and News Republic: I have no idea. I don't use Bixby, so I don't even know how it works.

For the 2nd question, have you tried opening Bixby, go to Settings, then go to Cards, then ensure news republic is toggled on (assuming it's installed on your phone in the first place)?
no is not working that, i not see this app in screen.

Hmm if you have the app installed and it doesnt show up there in Bixby, then maybe that app is not compatible with Bixby yet?
