SuperSU Pro
- August 31, 2013
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Loading device compatibility...
!!! This is a license file for SuperSU. This is NOT a stand-alone app. You need SuperSU already installed. Reboot after installation !!!
SuperSU Pro adds the following features to your SuperSU installation:
- OTA survival mode (no guarantees)
- Full color-coded command content logging (input/output/error)
- Per-app logging configuration
- Per-app user override
- PIN protection
See the SuperSU app description for further details on SuperSU.
Note that SuperSU Pro is rarely updated - most of the updated code goes directly into the main SuperSU app. That is the one you need to update.

Nearly there. I got my phone in a really messed up state because NO CONFIRMATION IS REQUIRED after setting a PIN and typing a PIN correctly on a tiny phone with my big fingers is difficult. Works best with Notifications OFF. Disappointingly disabling super user does not seem to allow me to play rented movies with Google Play Movies player.
Don't hesitate - BUY to support developer -- Well worth the money – I had problems in rooting my Samsung Galaxy 3 Android 4.3 due to Samsung's "Knox" – After reading your description of "How To", I tried to re-install your SuperSU but Google Play wouldn't allow it due to a prior install . I then went to 1 Mobile Market and re-installed SuperSU without a problem. Your instructions and diagrams were right on. I now have ROOT! Gladly purchased your Pro license file – Thanks again!!
Rock Solid SU For Root! You would think an SU binary would have to do very little, right? It just has to be in the right place and grant permissions every once in a while. Well, that is one of about 20 things that Super SU Pro does to help you manage root access and KEEP root access, even across updates. You need something reliable that doesn't take away from the experience. This is it. Spend the couple of bucks for Pro... CF is one of our greatest assets - and he doesn't require you to pay for full functionality. Please do it anyway!
Solid and Steady. Most reliable root app. I know from experience. My tablet got the black screen of death with the competitors app. This app has been working flawlessly with galaxy s3 with the stock ROM rooted. Really didnt need pro, but wanted to throw some loot your way for development.
One of the must haves Google should be paying you, because your skilful coding is what turns my phone into an actual computer. I have no complaints, but one thing I am uncertain about is Knox. I don't quite know what it is but its existence is what has kept me from using this particular item on my note 10.1 2014. Would you kindly explain (I guess on google plus or xda if not here) whether Knox is still an outstanding issue? Many thanks!
Worth the money. If you value the extra functions and abilities that having SU control over your device gives you, then don't hesitate to support this developer. He consistently updates this app to be compatible with newer versions of Android and without this app none of us would have the ability to grant SU permissions to certain apps. Sure there are alternatives, but none as good. Thanks Chainfire! P.S. to the user that can't play rented movies from Google Play, my S3 is rooted, and I watch them all the time without issue

Dont give beer money anymore.. You'll coax him to drink or party too much, so his output and quality will suffer. Instead, my money is going to put food on the table or put shoes on his kids-if he's got em. ;-) honestly, a fantastic program from a great developer, use this program instead of superuser. Well worth the small investment.
Htc One X - coredroid one x v3.6 Thanks alot as to how much i need it. Great job guys....
Really wanted to support the developer! I have no idea what I can do with the added features of this pro version. However, he made it so easy for a total noob, like myself to root my phone, I wanted to support him. One of these days I might figure out what to do with the extra features. I would love to see even more apps from the same guy. Thanks!
Great app! I wish it showed the logs for individual apps after tapping on them--or some way to filter the main log to accomplish the same thing. Still, it beats the pants off that piece of garbage going by the name "Superuser". It's stable and works well and reliably. Anyone figuring the icon into their rating AT ALL is a moron. He should make the icon a turd.
Pay the man. OUTSTANDING. I just noticed I have five Chainfire free apps and I consider each one essential. Google needs to give this man a HIGH six figure salary, stock options, assistants and a window-less office (no distractions) . No one else does this STUFF at this impeccable quality level. Me, I'm going to spend a low two- figure amount buying the pay versions. You should too.
Amazing Good by old hello superSU! It seems since most devs use Chain fire superSU I should buy his app to keep him doing his great work.SuperSU is on almost every new ROM. Do as devs do! Curtice former ACS ( Android creative syndicate) contributor
Having a bit of trouble I updated a while back to 4.3 on my Nexus 7 3G. I received the first OTA update to JWR66V and it didn't install too well - it showed some errors when flashing but still seemed to install. Prior to this OTA update I had enabled the "keep alive" feature of SuperSU. Currently, whenever I open SuperSU, it tells me that I have to update the binary. I click the normal installation, but the install just keeps on going forever. In addition, I've got the JWR66Y OTA update sitting here but error's out when I install it. Is this because of SuperSU? Do I have to re-flash Update:reflashed after a bit of difficulty and supersu updated fine
Works great on my T-Mobile Galaxy S3 SGH-T999 Works great on my T-Mobile Galaxy S3 SGH-T999. Its does exactly what I need. So I paid for the Pro version. I had tried superuser before and I did not like it.

This app requires that you already have root, or a custom recovery image to work.
Note: App and binary will have different versions. The app is updated more often than the binary is.
This app cannot be uninstalled if it was installed with your ROM or root. If there is no uninstall option, it's because you placed it in /system/app, not me. It is impossible for an app to be installed in /system/app by the Play store. In fact, the entire /system partition is read only at runtime. The only way for an app to be placed in /system/app is via a rooting process (which usually installs Superuser), or by remounting the system partition as read/write and manually putting it there.

Why another Superuser?
* Superuser should be open source. It's the gateway to root on your device. It must be open for independent security analysis. Obscurity (closed source) is not security.
* Superuser should be NDK buildable. No internal Android references.
* Superuser should also be AOSP buildable for those that want to embed it in their ROM.
* Superuser should also be AOSP embeddable, meaning a ROM can easily embed it into their Settings app.
* Maintenance and updates on both the market and source repositories should be timely.
* If something goes wrong, I can fix it.
* Handle multiuser (4.2+) properly
* Handle concurrent su requests properly

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Root Checker
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed This application, Root Checker (Basic), will allow the user to confirm they have proper root ( superuser ) access configured and operational.
*Feel free to email me any questions. I always reply!*
To learn more about root, please see my free educational application, All About Root
Advanced Features and UI in the Pro version, Root Checker Pro.
The goal of this application is to provide even the newest Android user with a simple method to check their device for root (administrator/superuser) access.
This is a very simple application to notify the user whether or not they have properly setup root access.
This application will test the device for root access using a very simple, quick and reliable method to check for root access. The su binary is the most common binary used on Android devices to grant root access. This application will check and verify the su binary is located in a standard location on the device. This application will also confirms the proper permissions and flags on the su binary in addition to testing the access granted by the su binary.
Many times users experience issues along the route of installing, configuring and gaining root access. The process can seem complex to some and easy to others. Regardless of the user's technical skill set, Root Checker, will quickly and correctly verify whether or not root access is 100% functioning. The process of confirming root access is sometimes known by other terms such as, gaining superuser access or gaining administrator access. Root Checker covers all these terms as they relate to one core function, being able to execute commands with root access.
If the Superuser or SuperSU applications are installed and working properly, they will prompt to accept or deny the root access request from Root Checker. Accepting the request will allow Root Checker to check for root access. Denying the request will result in Root Checker reporting no root access.
Gaining root access varies based on manufacturer, model, and carrier. If you're searching for root access to your device, this application will not help you. If you're interested in rooting your device, please use http://www.google.com to find the appropriate rooting support areas for your specific device. Other popular web sites which provide rooting guides are http://forum.xda-developers.com and http://forum.sdx-developers.com.
Please don't leave negative feedback about a concern, bug or issue! Instead, please email me, tweet me, contact me on my web site - http://joeykrim.com/contact, IRC, or on the forums (XDA, RootzWiki, SDX, etc.) with your feedback, suggestions and comments!
I do my best to assist as many people as possible and appreciate all the support that has made this application successful! Thank you!

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed ROM Manager
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed ROM Manager is THE MUST HAVE APP for any Android root user. (Over 10 million downloads and counting!)
* Flash your recovery to the latest and greatest ClockworkMod recovery.
* Manage your ROMs via a handy UI.
* Organize and perform backups and restores from within Android!
* Install ROMs from your SD card.
* Install your favorite ROMs over the air!
Premium Version:
* Incremental update zips (save your data plan!)
* Premium ROMs
* Receive notifications for when your ROM is updated!
* Automatic backups
* Install Queue
* Web Connect
* Backup Download Server lets you easily transfer backups as flashable zips to your computer.
Do you prefer using only recovery manually? Check out the Touch Recovery in app purchase, for the most advanced recovery available!
Why does ROM Manager ask for account permissions?
Web Connect only needs to access your Google account to connect it to your google account. It can't access any private data or passwords.
ClockworkMod Touch Recovery:
ClockworkMod Touch recovery (and recovery) is work that needs to put in for every new device that is released by a manufacturer.
If work on ROM Manager ceased completely, all the premium features would continue working without issue. However, new recoveries do not port and build themselves. Without ClockworkMod Touch being a per device purchase, there is no way to recoup recurring server costs and labor. Keeping ROM Manager free and operational costs tens of thousands of dollars a year, and that does not include engineering costs.
Your support is appreciated.
Droid users: Stuck at the "M" logo? Flash an alternate recovery and flash back to ClockworkMod.
HTC Users: Flash recovery not working? Try fastbooting a recovery on.
Droid X/2/Pro Users: You must run the Bootstrap application first to use ROM Manager.
Samsung users: You must flash a Clockwork compatible kernel first (see XDA forums)
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] NoMoarPowah! Pro
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed !! This is only a license file, you need to have the free version already installed !!
NoMoarPowah! replaces that boring charging animation when your phone is turned off but connected to the charger with a fully functional program!
!! This app is only for a select number of Samsung devices. It does not work on any other devices. See the list below !!
!! This app requires a fully rooted device !!
NoMoarPowah! can automatically reboot into Android when charging is done. Either when fully charged, or when the battery level reaches 15% and Android has enough juice to run.
But wait, there's more! NoMoarPowah! can also reboot at a custom time. It will even suggest times based on your currently set alarms, so your phone will be rebooted just before the alarm goes off and you need to wake up! This way you can be sure nobody will bother you while take your well-deserved nap, but still wake up when you need to.
Tested on the following devices:
- Samsung Galaxy S (I9000) and family
- Samsung Galaxy S2 (I9100) and family
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7" (P1000) and family
- Samsung Droid Charge
- Samsung/T-Mobile Sidekick 4G
- Samsung Continuum (ticker overlaps)
It half works on the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 (all models): the functionality is there, but the touch screen does not work in charging mode.
Other devices from the Samsung Galaxy series with a resolution of 800x480 or more may work as well.
!! Some custom ROMs may disable NoMoarPowah! functionality !!
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] adbd Insecure
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed adbd Insecure lets you run adbd in root mode if your device is rooted.
(Note that if you are running a custom kernel, it is likely that it already implements this functionality)
If you are running a stock (made by the phone manufacturer) kernel on your device, chances are adbd is running in "secure" mode, even if you are rooted. This app lets you run adbd in "insecure" mode, which gives you root access in "adb shell", allows access to system files and directories through "adb push/pull", and lets you run the "adb remount" command to make your /system partition writable.
Of course, your device must already be rooted for this to work. It may not work with "S-ON" devices and locked bootloaders.
This app does not make any permanent changes to your device - a reboot will undo any modification. That's why there is also the option to enable this feature at boot.
Note that if you have USB connected when the app activates or deactivates adbd root mode, you may need to unplug/replug the cable or run "adb kill-server" on your computer before adb will work again.
For discussion and support, see the XDA-Developers.com thread here:
Note that this download is also available from that thread completely for free. You can go there and download it for free, or buy me a beer and download it here from Google Play. It is 100% the exact same program. (No redistribution is allowed though!)

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed !! This is an "upgrade" / "license file" for the normal CF-Bench program, you must already have the free version installed or nothing will happen !!
CF-Bench is (mainly) CPU and memory benchmark tool specifically designed to be able to handle multi-core devices, produce a fairly stable score, and test both native as well managed code performance.
It tests specific device properties you do not regularly see tested by other benchmarks, and runs in a set timeframe.
It does produce some "final" scores, but as with every benchmark, you should take those with a grain of salt. It is simply not theoretically possible to produce a single number that accurately describes a device's performance.

This device must already be rooted: OTA RootKeeper doesn't have the ability to root devices.
If several conditions are matched, OTA RootKeeper will make root survive OTAs and... pretty much well anything :) − except /system partition formatting.
- /system partition as Ext2, Ext3 or Ext4
- Upgrades not formatting or overwriting completely the /system partition.
Typical systems where its perfectly effective:
- Nexus S
- Galaxy Nexus
- Every Honeycomb tablet
Typical system where the protection won't work:
- HTC Desire
- Samsung Galaxy Spica
- Samsung Galaxy S / SII
The application doesn't support original Superuser and not SuperSU for a very simple reason. The same feature OTA protection feature is already present in SuperSU.
In most case, only manufacturer's original recovery is able to install OTAs. It should not interfere with OTA update process itself.
A bonus feature is present, allowing you to un-root your device while keeping a su backup.
This way you can naively hide root until you choose to restore it via without further complications.
This nifty feature work on every rooted device.
** Temporary un-root statement **
This feature is designed for dev purposes in order to test their app with or without root.
The goal here is not to encourage stupid and unacceptable behaviors by movie or content sellers trying to prevent you to purchase or watch digital media you purchased if your device is rooted.

Root Powers without a fuss - the traditional *nix way
This app installs a custom unix/linux like su binary which grants root powers to all apps by default without any fuss and any confirmation. This app is meant for developers and powerusers who develop rooted apps or use trusted rooted apps. The 'root to all apps' behaviour may be considered 'insecure' by some, if you feel more secure with confirmations, then this app may not be for you.
*** Requires Root
*** 4.3 & KitKat not yet supported
If you have the habit of randomly installing rooted apps from the net, then this app may also not be for you. (The theory that confirmations help laymen prevent disasters is flawed - you can still press allow to a untrusted root app and get your files deleted)
The superuser X su binary essentially cuts off the middle man, i.e. the slow grant dialogues and the dependency on the parent superuser app. This also means that you will have root powers even if the superuser app or installer gets corrupted or uninstalled.
This is the Lamborghini among superusers!
Special Attention
Once the binary is installed, you can uninstall the app. For some this may be disappointing but the plus side is you can save space and have one app less in the launcher! The traditional su is a command line application, it does not need this fancy UI to run your commands! You can keep the installer if you like.
Compatibility and Requirements
Requires a rooted device. A Complete BusyBox installation is recommended for rooted apps.
The only superuser app that is compitible with all architectures: Supports Android on MIPS, x86 and ARM. This app is compatible with 99% of all devices with Android versions upto 4.3 but does not support 4.3 due to additional platform security features introduced by Google. If you fall into the 1% of users who have Android 4.3, then similar to Superuser by ChainsDD you will need to switch to SuperSU by Chainfire or Superuser by ClockworkMod while we finish our own implementation for 4.3
Install Superuser by ChainsDD / SuperSU by Chainfire / Superuser by ClockworkMod and allow them to install their own su binary. Once that is done, just unistall superuser X the usual way.
Binary output (su -i)
superuser X su binary v4.4.0 | Code Name: Triforce
(Made with love for Android ARM/MIPS/x86 - BitCubate Apps)
superuser X su usage:
su [-c command] -i [uid]
example: su -c 'mount -o remount rw /system/ ; mv /system/xbin/busybox /system/bin/'

The discussion and support thread can be found on XDA-Developers here:
This is meant to replace Superuser (if installed), you use either one or the other. You cannot combine them. Statements that this breaks Superuser are therefore completely nonsensical.
Superuser access management runs through a so called "su binary". There can be only one of these at a time. So if you install SuperSU, your previous superuser access management solution will no longer operate. So if you want to switch back: (1) Open that application, and search for an option for it to install/update/replace the "su binary". (2) Confirm root-using apps are using the superuser solution you want. (3) Uninstall SuperSU.

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] Chainfire3D
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Take control over your GPU!
Chainfire3D is an intermediary OpenGL driver. What does that mean? It means that Chainfire3D sits between your apps and the graphics drivers, and can intercept and/or change commands between the two. It has some built-in functions, and can be further extended with plugins to provide extra functionality.
!! For Froyo and Gingerbread ONLY. NOT COMPATIBLE with Honeycomb/Ice Cream Sandwich/Jelly Bean !!
!! Chainfire3D is for 1ghz+ devices only !!
!! ROOT is required for this program, as well as a writable /system partition. S-OFF is also required on HTC devices !!
Features include reducing texture size and quality to reduce memory use and potentially increase game performance, as well as increasing memory use potentially increase performance.
If you also install the (experimental) EGL driver, AND your GPU supports it, AND you have the Pro version, you can enable 4xMSAA or 16xMSAA on a per-app bases. This can drastically improve image quality!
Be sure to check the thread on XDA for available plugins !
( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1087427 )
Chainfire3D has been tested on:
- Samsung Galaxy S
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 7"
- Samsung Galaxy S II
- Samsung Galaxy Note
- Samsung Epic 4G
- Motorola Atrix 4G
- Motorola Droid 2
- LG Optimus 2X
- Google Nexus S
Many users are running Chainfire3D on devices not listed here - it's likely to work on all modern devices. So far nobody has reported a failed install, so that's good. Doesn't mean problems can't happen.
!! There is some risk involved installing the driver. Your device may not boot. If you have CWM, it would be prudent to create a backup before installing !!
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] Triangle Away
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Many Samsung devices store a flash counter that keeps track of how many times you have flashed *custom* firmwares to your device. On some devices, a yellow triangle or other sort of visual warning is also displayed during boot if you are running a *custom* firmware. TriangleAway was built to disable the triangle (if a visual warning is present) and reset the custom ROM flash counter to 0. This app requires root !
You can find out the current status of your flash counter and firmware state (custom or official) by booting into "download mode" on most devices. The usual way of getting into "download mode" is by first turning off your device, then turning it on by pressing and holding VolDown+(Home)+Power. Alternatively, the "adb reboot download" command also often works.
When you run TriangleAway, if your device and firmware are supported, it will show you the detected state of the binary (custom or official) and flash counter value, and the option to "Reset flash counter". Please confirm that the information shown is correct before resetting the values.
On a number of devices, TriangleAway can work, but your firmware may not be supported directly. In that case, the app will tell you it needs to reboot into a special boot mode, which will be happen if you select "Reset flash counter". The device will reboot into a special mode which will allow you to review the current status and reset the binary and flash counter values (or abort and do nothing). On some devices this will actually trigger the counter to 1 if its 0 - so if you're "just checking", do that in download mode!
( and by brick I mean brick - only a board replacement or a JTAG unit will be able to save you, don't mess with boot(loader) stuff unless you *really* mean it! )
Note#1: using Triangle Away may unmount your SD card. Reboot or manually remount it from Android settings.
Note#2: on new devices status can only be reset on stock firmwares!

Flashing with Mobile ODIN does NOT increase your custom kernel flash counter or make the yellow warning triangle appear.
For discussion and support: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1347899
Flashing with Mobile ODIN is easy. You start by starting the app and the app will check your system has everything it needs to continue (like root). It may need to download an additional package, so it is advised you have Wi-Fi available.
Now you should see the main Mobile ODIN screen. It will list a set of partitions. Clicking a partition will allow you to select a file from your SD card to flash to that partition. Do not worry about selecting the wrong file - Mobile ODIN will not let you. Separate files (named after the partition) as well as .tar and .tar.md5 files are supported.
From the desktop ODIN you may be used to "PDA", "PHONE", and "CSC" buttons. All three of these buttons have been replaced by the "Open file ..." button. This button will open the file you select from the SD card, and find all the partitions it can flash inside that file. So if you select a .tar file containing kernel and modem, the Kernel and Modem partitions will be set up to use that .tar file for flashing.
Now that we have selected what we want to flash, if you have the Pro version you can proceed to the EverRoot section. The EverRoot options allows you to root your firmware while it is being flashed. Never again will you be without root! Select here which apps you want to inject in the firmware that is being flashed.
Now that we are all done selecting partitions and configuring EverRoot, we continue to "Flash firmware". Mobile ODIN will gather all the information it needs and perform the flash. Before starting, however, it will check that your battery level is over 50%, and if applicable offer to verify MD5 checksums on the files you have selected to flash. If all is well, it will reboot into recovery mode, and flash the firmware you have selected.
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] StickMount
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Automatically mount and dismount USB sticks on various devices like the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 7 and Nexus 10. The Nexus 4 is not supported - this is an issue with the device, not with StickMount !
Various Nexus and "stock Android" devices do not automatically "mount" mass storage devices (such as USB sticks). StickMount has been made to solve this problem, and give you access to the files on your USB connected storage from all your apps.
StickMount is known to work on many devices, but is built *only* with *Nexus* devices in mind.
Once StickMount is installed and you connect a USB stick with a "USB host / OTG cable", the device will show you a popup if you want to open StickMount. It is advised to tell the device that you want to do this by default.
If you have just installed StickMount and you already had a USB stick connected, you must manually launch the program, or disconnect/reconnect the USB stick for StickMount to start working.
Mass storage devices are mounted to "/sdcard/usbStorage/xxxx/".
----- (Pro) Kill apps preventing unmount -----
Sometimes an app has a file in use located on the USB device, and won't let go of it. This can prevent StickMount from unmounting the USB device. It will seem like the device stays connected (this is harmless). StickMount Pro provides an option that attempts to kill (terminate) all the apps that are preventing the unmount from succeeding.
----- (Pro) Media scan -----
StickMount Pro supports triggering the media scanner on each (un)mount action. This will automatically make the files on your USB device available in apps like Gallery and Music. Please note that the media scanner is not a visible process on all Android devices - it might actually work silently in the background without any visual cues. It may take a minute for your files to show up, so don't panic if they don't show immediately.
Even if you have this option enabled, you can prevent folders from being scanned by placing an empty file called ".nomedia" in that folder. If you put it in the root of the USB device, the entire device will not be scanned.
----- Filesystem support -----
The filesystems supported depends on your device firmware. On most devices, at least vfat/fat/fat32 and ext2/3/4 are supported. On the latest Android versions, ntfs is also supported in read-only mode. Some devices also support exfat out the box, but most do not.
StickMount can utilize the "ntfs-3g" and "mount.exfat-fuse" binaries to add support for ntfs (untested) and exfat, but these are not included. If you place the "ntfs-3g" or "mount.exfat-fuse" files in the root of your internal storage ( /sdcard ), StickMount will automatically use them.
You can find the needed files here:
ntfs-3g: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1145436&stc=1&d=1340293802
mount.exfat-fuse: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=806200&d=1323109372
----- Troubleshooting -----
For some users, the app appears not to work, while in fact it is the device itself or the cable not working. One OTG cable is not the other OTG cable. If you have a USB stick with a light on it, it should light up when you connect it to the Galaxy Nexus using your OTG cable. If it does not, either your cable or your Nexus is faulty. 99 out of 100 times it is going to be your cable. That the cable works fine with another device does not mean anything! Cables known to work on a one devices may not work on another device.
SD card unmounting: If your SD card unmounts when unmounting a USB device, you have a bug in your kernel. This is *not* a bug in StickMount !

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed 500 Firepaper
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed 500 Firepaper provides a live wallpaper and a daydream showing you the latest images from 500px throughout the day.
You never need to look at that boring old wallpaper again, or search for hours for a nice new one. This app will show you quality photographs from all over the world - different ones each day!
The feature (popular, editor's choice, fresh, etc) and categories displayed are of course configurable, as is the refresh interval and the brightness of the images.
Please note that high resolution imagery and animation takes quite a bit of memory, so obviously this app is aimed at high-end devices.
If you are a Muzei user, 500 Firepaper also presents itself as an art source to Muzei.
Why is there no save feature ?
Not allowed per 500px API terms.
Three finger tap to go to the next image doesn't seem to work, what now ?
On some devices (like the HTC One) you need to put down your fingers one-by-one.
Why can't I pause indefinitely or show an image for longer than a day ?
Per 500px API terms the app cannot keep an image around for longer than 24 hours.
Why does this use so much RAM ?
High-resolution imagery takes a lot of memory in uncompressed form, and multiple buffers are required. But fear not, should your device need the memory while the wallpaper/daydream is not visible, the memory occupied by the app will automagically be released and repurposed.
Disk usage just keeps growing. Why can't I configure any limit ?
The built-in cache limit is around 256 MB - I've never seen it actually reach that limit before cleaning itself up, though.
Can the cached images be put somewhere else, like on my sd card ?
No, they cannot.
Do you want a balloon ?
No, but thanks for asking.
This application is completely dependent on the availability of 500px and its APIs. 500px can remove the APIs or revoke this application's API keys at any time. This will cause the application to stop working.
Due to 500px's API usage conditions, the application cannot cache images for longer than 24 hours. As such, if you are not connected to Wi-Fi while either charging or having a near-full battery for more than a day, the application will run out of images to display.
This application uses the 500px(tm) API and is not endorsed or certified by 500px or 500px Inc. All 500px Trademarks displayed on this application are property of 500px Inc.
No personal or private information about you or your device is collected or transmitted by this app.
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed USB Host Diagnostics
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed USB Host Diagnostics determines your device's USB host capabilities.
USB host is a very powerful feature of recent Android based smartphones and tablets, but on many firmwares (both stock and custom) the feature is somewhat broken.
For example, at launch the Galaxy Nexus told all the apps and the Market that it supported USB host, but USB host did not actually work (this was fixed in the Android 4.0.2 update). This broke several apps.
That is just one example of many. There are even cases where OEMs advertise USB host support, but the device does not support it at all. It appears as if USB host support isn't tested by Google or the OEMs when they push out new firmwares and devices at all.
As we cannot depend on Google or the OEMs to correctly provide information regarding USB host support, and the Android framework will regularly lie about it to both the Market as well as Android apps, this application was created so you can test your device's USB host capabilities for yourself.
If you allow it, the app will also submit your results to my website, so together we can create a complete database of devices and firmwares and their USB host support.
This tool may also come in handy for those porting firmwares.
- Android 2.3.1 or newer
- (Optional) Root
- USB OTG cable (unless your device has a fullsize USB port)
- USB memory stick, or another USB device to test the connection with
The result database is available here:

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed CF-Bench is (mainly) CPU and memory benchmark tool specifically designed to be able to handle multi-core devices, produce a fairly stable score, and test both native as well managed code performance.
It tests specific device properties you do not regularly see tested by other benchmarks, and runs in a set timeframe.
It does produce some "final" scores, but as with every benchmark, you should take those with a grain of salt. It is simply not theoretically possible to produce a single number that accurately describes a device's performance.

Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] Pry-Fi
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed You are being watched...
Retailers, crooks, the government, and others shady individuals are tracking your movements. Even when your Wi-Fi is turned off, your phone may be broadcasting information to whomever is in range which can be used both to track repeated visits to as well as your exact movements in an area under surveillance.
It's not a big step to couple this to personal information - a retailer for example, could track your trip to the register and correlate with your payment information. Now the tracking hardware and software vendors, the store (or chain) owner, their business partners, they can now all track where you are every time you come into range of one of their systems, and fully profile who you are, what you do, your financials, and your daily patterns!
That is just one example, but there are many uses for tracking you. Make no mistake, this is happening in the real world today.
One solution is shutting off Wi-Fi completely (including the background network scanning, a setting most people don't know about), but you would lose benefits like automatically connecting to known Wi-Fi networks and improved location awareness for your apps. It also does nothing to help the situation for others.
Pry-Fi will prevent your device from announcing all the networks it knows to the outside world, but it will still allow background scanning and automatically connecting to Wi-Fi networks. While you are not connected to a Wi-Fi network, the MAC address will constantly be pseudo-randomized, following a pattern that still makes the trackers think you are a real person, but they will not encounter your MAC address again. This will slowly poison their tracking database with useless information.
When you do connect to a Wi-Fi network, unless you specify otherwise, your MAC address will also be randomized - the same MAC address will not be used the next time you connect to this or any other network.
Though of course the companies involved with these trackers claim they wouldn't use the data maliciously, the possibility is there, and we all know that if something can be abused, ultimately it will be. There do not appear to be any laws against these practices yet, nor is it likely Wi-Fi will be redesigned any time soon to get rid of the information leaks.
But we can make an effort to reduce the usefulness of the tracking data for the exploiters. Pry-Fi comes with a War mode, which when enabled tries to make your Android device appear like dozens of people. Just wandering around an area under Wi-Fi location surveillance for a few minutes can ruin the tracking data for the period of your stay.
Proof of Concept
This is proof-of-concept code, and how for it will go in the future depends on interest and how well it works. It has been tested on several devices and seems to work, but it is very young still. The magic the app does to achieve its purpose is ever subject to changing Android security policies and OEM customizations, so even though it works now, there really is no saying if it will still be possible in future firmwares.
Of course you should also keep in mind that tracking can be done in many ways, and these W-Fi signals are far from the only method in use.
Further details, device compatibility information, FAQ, discussion, etc is all available on XDA-Developers.com here:
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Hotspot Control
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Hotspot Control is a tiny app that enables or disables Portable Hotspot functionality of Android. Usually you could just do this in Android settings, but on some devices this option is hidden, or only works if you have a SIM inserted.
Hotspot Control does away with those requirements, assuming that the hotspot functionality itself is actually still present and operational on the device. Rooting is *usually* not required.
THIS IS NOT DESIGNED TO BEAT YOUR CARRIER'S TETHERING PROTECTION - For some people it does (it depends on how that protection is implemented) but this is not what the app was made for. It's no use complaining that it doesn't do this for you. This app is designed to circumvent some issues when setting up a *local* hotspot so your devices can communicate with eachother, *not* with the internet (though that also works on several devices).
You can configure the access point (hotspot) name and password, encryption used is alway WPA2 AES + TKIP, to keep it simple.
On some devices that do not have a cellular data connection capability (like the Nexus 10) the hotspot will not give out IP addresses - the app will auto-detect this situation and fix it, but root is required for that option. Note that without root on these devices, the connected devices can still communicate if you configure their IP addresses manually, but that is something for the advanced user.
I personally need this to create a private network (even without a SIM, and thus without an actual *internet* connection) in the field between a number of my devices. Some genius at Samsung decided that my Note II shouldn't create an access point if no SIM is present - I beg to differ! Maybe someone else has use for this as well.
For discussion and questions, see the thread on XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230848
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed [root] RegionLock Away
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed THIS APP REQUIRES ROOT (AND IS THEREFOR DANGEROUS), AND IS ONLY COMPATIBLE WITH SPECIFIC DEVICES, DO NOT USE THIS UNLESS YOU ARE EXACTLY AWARE OF WHY YOU'RE USING IT AND IF YOU SHOULD
Region Lock
Sammy, in their never-ending quest to make sure they've pissed off every single one of their customers at least once, have decided to region lock their latest model devices. This means for example that you cannot use a European device with an American, Middle Eastern, Asian, ... , SIM card. You'd still be able to use the European SIM all over the world, but you would not be able to use a local SIM card while travelling outside of Europe - which would of course be much cheaper.
Sammy claims you can use any SIM card in the world after you've 'activated' with a SIM card from the region the device is from (in our example, Europe), but this has been proven by various (angry) Note 3 owners to not actually be the case.
The region lock is implemented in the form of a network blacklist. Beware that this is not exactly the same thing as a SIM lock, even though they are somewhat related. This blacklist blocks a number of whole countries and carriers, while a SIM lock whitelists one specific carrier. This app clears the network blacklist (region lock), but it may or may not remove the SIM lock, if present. Some have reported it works for them (for example: T-Mobile US Note3 on AT&T network: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2471742 ), but this should be considered a side-effect.
While removing the region lock does not necessarily affect the SIM lock, various users have reported that inputting a proper SIM unlock code does remove the region lock as well. You can purchase SIM unlock codes at various places on the internet for 20 bucks or so. A benefit of using such a code is that you do not need to root your device or use this app. If you are not rooting your device already for other reasons, I would personally not root it to just region unlock, and buy an unlock code instead.
Compatible devices
- Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 (MI7, MJ1, MJ3 firmwares)
Right now, this has only been tested on Note 3's, and found working. Rumor has it Sammy will be bringing the region lock to a lot of devices, even backporting it to devices sold in the past (aren't there laws against this?). There's no way for me to know at this time if this specific method will keep working on the Note 3, or if it will work at all on other devices. Maybe the app will need updating, maybe Sammy will block this hack altogether, etc. Only time will tell.
In theory this hack can be done without rooting or voiding warranty with some device flashing and app modding, but I'm not currently working on that because it would be highly model-specific and I'm a root user anyway.
It is not currently known exactly when the network blacklist is updated. Beware that for example updating your firmware may cause the region lock to reactivate.
Why is this paid ?
You're pretty much just buying me (half) a beer. If you do not want or are not able to pay, you can get this app for free at XDA: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2470551 . Region unlocking only takes about a minute, so if it doesn't work for you, you should also have more than enough time to refund the app as well.
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Remote Release (USB)
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed Remote Release allows you to "remote release" your Canon EOS DSLR from your Android device with only a USB cable.
Remote releasing is using a remote control to activate the shutter of the camera. This is to prevent shaking the camera, and is often used with bulb shots and/or tripods.
This app is the little (free) brother of DSLR Controller; see http://dslrcontroller.com/ and http://market.android.com/details?id=eu.chainfire.dslrcontroller
Remote Release also has a discussion thread on XDA-Developers.com:
---- Features ----
- Activate the camera's shutter button from your phone over USB, just like using a remote release cable
- Enable/Disable Auto-Focus *
- Support for bulb shots (hold shutter button) *
- Support for continuous shooting (hold shutter button) *
* Depends on camera model. Requires a DryOS based camera. See DSLR Controller's device compatibility page ( http://dslrcontroller.com/devices.php )
---- Requirements ----
- An Android device with an ARMv7-A or newer CPU architecture (virtually all 1ghz+ devices)
- Not rooted: Android 3.1 or higher with USB host kernel+API support **
- Rooted: Android 2.3.1 or higher with USB host kernel support **
- Supported Canon EOS DSLR
- The correct USB adapter, if applicable
** USB host kernel support can usually be determined by connecting a USB stick to your device, and seeing if the device recognizes it.
---- Devices ----
The following devices are known to be compatible:
- Samsung Galaxy S2 and Note, USB host cable
--- Android 2.x: root required
--- Android 4.x: no root required
- Motorola Xoom, USB host cable
--- 3.1: unknown
--- 3.2: no root
- Acer Iconia A500
- Asus Transformer, keyboard dock or USB adapter
- Toshiba Thrive
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9", 10.1", 10.1v, USB adapter
--- 3.0: unknown
--- 3.1: no root
- Lenovo Thinkpad
- B&N Nook Color
--- CM 7, Nook Color Tweaks, memory limit mod, USB host cable
Please see DSLR Controller's supported devices page ( http://dslrcontroller.com/devices.php ) for further device compatibility information.
----- Usage -----
-- Getting started --
- Install the application.
- Connect your camera to the phone/tablet, and turn it on. Half-press the shutter button if it was already on.
- If a popup comes up that offers to open Remote Release, press it, and move on to "Operation" below.
- If a popup does not come up, manually start Remote Release. A Superuser popup should appear, click allow. If this took more than a few seconds, Remote Release will complain it cannot find a camera, regardless if you have one connected or not. Exit the app, half-press the shutter button on the camera, then restart the app.
- If a popup appears that tells you your device is not compatible, this is the end of the line for you.
-- Operation --
After you have connected your camera and started the app, the app will show you the following:
- Camera model
- Current shutter setting (depending on camera mode)
- Current aperture setting (depending on camera mode)
- Current ISO setting (depending on camera mode)
- Current drive mode setting
Below that you will see three buttons:
- Auto-Focus button
- Shutter button
- Button to open DSLR Controller in the Market
If your lens is set to Auto-Focus and you are using a DryOS based camera, you can use the Auto-Focus button to select if focusing is triggered by pressing the shutter button. By default it is, but it is not always desired. If your lens is set to Manual-Focus, this setting has no effect.
Pressing the shutter button will take a picture on your camera. If the camera is set to bulb mode or to continuous shooting, press-and-hold the shutter button - the bulb/continuous capture will stop once you remove your finger from the screen.
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed CF.lumen (for Chainfire3D)
Listen Read Device Only Added Installed CF.lumen changes the colors of your Android device's display based on the position of the sun. With the default settings, your display will get a warmer tint (lower color temperature) when the sun is down, to look more like indoor lighting and less like the sun, which causes less strain on your eyes and doesn't keep you awake as much.
!!! This is an addon for Chainfire3D, you need to have both Chainfire3D and Chainfire3D Pro installed to be able to use CF.lumen !!!
!!! For Froyo and Gingerbread devices only !!!
With the default settings, blue tints will be reduced in brightness when the sun goes down. This reduces how much looking at the screen keeps your brain awake later at night. If you have sleeping problems, you should definitely be using this. Do yourself a favor and install similar software ("f.lux") on your PC as well - it fixed my sleeping cycle.
There is also a full-on sleep mode that runs on a pre-set schedule. By default it shows the entire screen in red, so as to not destroy your night vision when you look at it.
When you want the screen to look normal for a bit (for example for gaming or looking at pictures) simply tap the notification in the notification tray to disable CF.lumen until the next time you turn on the screen.
Additionally, it can also use the light sensor to automagically switch to sleep mode when it is fully dark. HOWEVER, you should be aware that most devices do not have a sensitive enough light sensor to detect the difference between house light and darkness, so this function may not work very well on your device.
Last but not least, a function is also provided to turn off the screen based on proximity sensor activity.

[Apologies if this is not the correct forum - it's about a bot behaving badly, but it may be more appropriate in a Google specific area. I couldn't find an appropriate one.]
I set my custom crawl rate to 0.1/sec (10 second delay between fetches) a couple of months ago, but Googlebot is still fetching at a much faster rate.
I pulled some random samples from recent minutes:
21:02 - 27 fetches
23:29 - 33 fetches
06:48 - 45 fetches
10:52 - 47 fetches
11:02 - 39 fetches
And to be sure it wasn't a longer term thing, I counted the fetches over the last complete day (a 24 hour period) - 57792 fetches, or an average of 40.1 per minute.
10 seconds between fetches should be a maximum of 6 per minute... so why isn't my setting being respected? I just changed it to 15 sec between fetches to see if that gives something a kick.
I've set the custom crawl rate because my site has millions of pages and Google's search referrals are not proportional to the rate at which it's indexing those. The infamous cap? (For several months I was consistently receiving around 30,000 referrals per day, even though Google's count of indexed pages had grown 20-30 times over that period.)
Side note, does anyone else think it's extremely arrogant for Google to reset the requested custom rate after 90 days? Remind me then to review my decision by all means, but don't just quietly drop it and go back to the default, forcing me to log in and change the setting to what I actually want... >:(

College admissions: What matters most -- SAT scores, grades, or just luck?
College admissions is more subjective than you might think. It wasn't that long ago that Ivy League schools tried to keep out Jewish applicants.
New York
Steven got nearly perfect SAT scores, but he didn't get into Princeton. Suzanne has straight A's, but Brown rejected her. And Samantha – Samantha! – got into both schools, even though her scores and grades are pretty mediocre.
Skip to next paragraphSubscribe Today to the Monitor
Can you believe it?
Welcome to an average school day in April, the cruelest month of the calendar for America's upper-middle-class teens. If you live in a leafy American suburb, as I do, you simply can't escape the drudgery and the drama of the College admissions sweepstakes. Everywhere you go, the conversation is the same: who got in where, and why. Kids like to talk, of course. But in the old days, it took a little while for the word to get around. Now, it's just a mouse-click away. And that just makes things worse.
Worst of all, though, most of our children seem to think that the college admissions process is a meritocracy: The "best" students get into the "best" schools. That's precisely why they express such surprise – and, often, outrage – when an apparently ordinary student gets into a top-rated college. She's not that smart! No fair!
Let's leave aside the question of what "smart" means, or whether SAT scores and grades provide a useful measure of it. Colleges don't want classes composed solely of kids with perfect grades and scores. They also want "diversity" – of enthusiasms, experiences, and, yes, ethnicities.
The kids know all of that, too, but they still say it's a numbers game. And for a brief moment, about a century ago, it was. Fearful that its classes were filled with mediocre young men from prep schools, Harvard College adopted the College Entrance Examination Board as the major basis for admission in 1905.
Other leading universities quickly followed suit. So for a few years anyone with a high enough score – and a big enough bank account – could get in. But the result, to the chagrin of America's WASP gentry, was a steep spike in Jewish students.
By 1908, the fraction of Jewish students in Harvard's freshman class had jumped from almost nil to 7 percent; a decade later, it rose to 20 percent. At Yale, meanwhile, an admissions officer complained that the roster of new students "might easily be mistaken for a recent roll call at the Wailing Wall."
To elite university officials, this development threatened nothing less than the destruction of the elite university itself. "The summer hotel that is ruined by admitting Jews meets its fate because they drive away the Gentiles," Harvard president A. Lawrence Lowell warned, "and then after the Gentiles have left, they leave also."

¶I know my selfe now, and I feele within me,
¶A peace aboue all earthly Dignities,
¶These ruin'd Pillers, out of pitty, taken
¶A loade, would sinke a Nauy, (too much Honor.)
¶O 'tis a burden Cromwel, 'tis a burden
2290Too heauy for a man, that hopes for Heauen.
¶Crom. I am glad your Grace,
¶Ha's made that right vse of it.
¶Card. I hope I haue:
¶I am able now (me thinkes)
2295(Out of a Fortitude of Soule, I feele)
¶To endure more Miseries, and greater farre
¶Then my Weake-hearted Enemies, dare offer.
¶What Newes abroad?
¶Lord Chancellor, in your place.
2305But he's a Learned man. May he continue
¶May haue a Tombe of Orphants teares wept on him.
2310What more?
¶Crom. That Cranmer is return'd with welcome;
¶Card. That's Newes indeed.
2315Whom the King hath in secrecie long married,
¶This day was view'd in open, as his Queene,
¶Going to Chappell: and the voyce is now
¶Onely about her Corronation.
¶Card. There was the waight that pull'd me downe.
2320O Cromwell,
¶The King ha's gone beyond me: All my Glories
¶In that one woman, I haue lost for euer.
¶Or gilde againe the Noble Troopes that waighted
2325Vpon my smiles. Go get thee from me Cromwel,
¶I am a poore falne man, vnworthy now
¶To be thy Lord, and Master. Seeke the King
¶(That Sun, I pray may neuer set) I haue told him,
¶What, and how true thou art; he will aduance thee:
2330Some little memory of me, will stirre him
¶(I know his Noble Nature) not to let
¶Neglect him not; make vse now, and prouide
¶For thine owne future safety.
2335Crom. O my Lord,
¶With what a sorrow Cromwel leaues his Lord.
¶For euer, and for euer shall be yours.
¶(Out of thy honest truth) to play the Woman.
2345Let's dry our eyes: And thus farre heare me Cromwel,
¶And when I am forgotten, as I shall be,
¶And sleepe in dull cold Marble, where no mention
¶Of me, more must be heard of: Say I taught thee;
¶Say Wolsey, that once trod the wayes of Glory,
2350And sounded all the Depths, and Shoales of Honor,
¶Found thee a way (out of his wracke) to rise in:
¶Marke but my Fall, and that that Ruin'd me:
¶Cromwel, I charge thee, fling away Ambition,
2355By that sinne fell the Angels: how can man then
¶(The Image of his Maker) hope to win by it?
¶Corruption wins not more then Honesty.
¶Still in thy right hand, carry gentle Peace
¶Let all the ends thou aym'st at, be thy Countries,
¶Thy Gods, and Truths. Then if thou fall'st (O Cromwell)
¶Serue the King: And prythee leade me in:
2365There take an Inuentory of all I haue,
¶To the last peny, 'tis the Kings. My Robe,
¶And my Integrity to Heauen, is all,
¶I dare now call mine owne. O Cromwel, Cromwel,
¶Had I but seru'd my God, with halfe the Zeale
2370I seru'd my King: he would not in mine Age
¶Haue left me naked to mine Enemies.
¶Crom. Good Sir, haue patience.
¶Card. So I haue. Farewell
¶The Hopes of Court, my Hopes in Heauen do dwell.
