KLWP app-like for rooted phones? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, so I'm running a rooted nexus 5 with CM13 rom. I saw some videos on kustom live wallpaper app and how it completely changes phone interface and I was wondering if there was sth similar to it for rooted phones, and hopefully legally free? I want to be able to create buttons/widgets with it's own custom animation/functionalities options. I searched a bit here but no luck. Thx all in advance.

Why don't you just use KWLP?

I was just wondering, since I'm already rooted, if there was a free alternative to it. If not, I guess I'll buy it, purchasing is a little difficult here.

Kwlp doesn't seem to be working on my rooted phone I have arrows ROM installed does anyone know if that will be the problem or do I have to hide kwlp in magisk or anything

Best Way to Remove Pre-installed Apps?

Hey Guys.
So as I have said in title, what is the best way to remove some of the apps that were included with the phone? Specifically I wish remove CoPilot trial, the outdated Facebook app and the outdated Windows Live apps.
I searched the boards but I didn't really find what I was looking for. Thanks guys.
The only way now is to flash a custom ROM. Someone may come up with a differentsolution some day, but not yet.

[Q] New to Android - few questions

Hi,
so far I have been using iOS devices and they pretty much do what I need, even without jailbrake.
Unfortunately iPhone has a small screen and the new one I don't really like (plus it is quite expensive).
I am looking at WP but it also has few down sides (for me) despite of system itself looking great!
So,, here we come to SGSIII and few questions.
On my iPad I use VPN and got myself apps from UK and US store without problem. Now I can enjoy the likes of BBC iPlayer and Netflix.
If I'll get SGSIII will I be able to do the same?
I was told SGS III has locked bootloader and I will need access to this if I want to root this phone in order to download apps (like Netflix) from Internet , not from Google Play which in Poland will not have them available.
If SGSIII (which wen down in price a bit) will not do what I need - what else (with approx 4,5" screen) should I look at?

Does it mean that I will have no problem making VPN and Netflix work on this device?
And installing Netflix app (which in polish Play is not available).
You shouldn't have any problems running netflix if you root your device all your doing is getting superuser permission. If u flash a custom Rom you may have some problems then like I flashed paranoid android v2.13 and can't use the tvcatchup anymore still looking for a fixed!
Don't hold me to it I'm just going by my experience lol root didn't change anything service wise only the rom did.
No... custom roms is not my thing - i did not even needed to jailbrake my ipad so far. As long as I can get vpn up and apps like iPlayer and netflix all the rest is enough for me - all I need is browser, mail client, access to skydrive and MS services - and I am happy.
So I can get European SGSIII and should have no problem in getting the entertainment soft working on it?
TVCatchup blocks all VPNs
Just found something called Market Enabler - will that work for me to get those app from different markets...?
Yes market enabler allows you to find and download apps that are not available in your country.

Thanks! So unlike in case of Windows Phone I should be OK.

[Q] Disguise Tablet as another?

Hi there!
Is there a way to disguise my Tablet (Medion Lifetab) as something different, something more common, like a Nexus 10 or Galaxy 10 or something, so I can access certain Apps from the store? Searched, but couldn't really find something.
Thanks in advance

Apps from Google Play store don't know what type of Tablet you have, it doesn't work that way. I'm just guessing here, but I think it depends what flavour of Android (Gingerbread, Jelly Bean, Kit Kat) your running and the version of the App Store your running as to what you can download. (Maybe someone with more knowledge could confirm this)
Best bet for you is to research Custom ROM's and see what is avaliable, you might be able to run CyanogenMod or something. Look for forums for your specific tab maybe google it.
Hope that helps.
** Quick Google search for "Medion Lifetab Custom ROM" brought this up, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2097162 suggest you start learning to use the internet better ;0)

The AccuWeather widget does not work on older Samsung phones.

Hi, at the beginning I want to point out that this is my first thread, so if I did something wrong I apologize. I also want to apologize for my English.
Recently, on many old Samsung phones, the AccuWeather weather widget stopped working for me. First, I noticed the problem on the Galaxy A5 2015 with Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. When I wanted to enter the city into the weather, it did not find my town, and after entering larger ones it was, but after selecting them suddenly disappeared, I tried to use the map, it showed me several large European cities there, but after selecting any it wrote that the service is now unavailable. I decided it was a temporary failure, so I ignored it. Some time later I managed to fix my Galaxy Note3 with Android 5.0 Lollipop, so there I wanted to introduce the weather, but the effect was the same. A month later I reset my Galaxy S4 with Android 4.4.2 KitKat, the effect when trying to enter the weather city the same, 2 days later I got a Galaxy S2 with Android 4.1.2 JellyBean, the effect exactly the same. I remembered that on my second S4, but with Android 4.3 JellyBean, I have the weather introduced, so I charged it to check it, the weather was there, but it showed the state of March 26, 2023, after trying to refresh itself refreshed the moment, but finally there was the same effect, when trying to add another city, the same effect as on the phones mentioned earlier. Maybe someone knows what the problem is? If AccuWeather doesn't work, maybe there's another widget that looks like the original one? Please help.
Accuweather requires Android 6.0 or newer. So that's why it doesn't work on Android 5.0 anymore.
Ehhhh, can I use a custom app to use this feature? I want it to look like the original. By the way, I will add that on my Xperia Z2 with 5.0.2 works AccuWeather.

If that works on Z2 then maybe it's older version. I just look out playstore that newer versions requires Android 6.0+
And it is possible to somehow make it work, for example, a custom widget, but to look like the original or something like that?

Watched the same behavior...
AFAIK no custom widget will work since the app itself is the one to blame.
Accuweather v5.8.6 was the latest version to support Android 4.1+.
Search the web and install it. It works. The widgets are slightly different though.
