[Q] Easy way to copy apps from S5 to Note topic

Hi, Is there a easy way via an app, wi-fi transfer, usb device to device, to copy the apps and settings/passwords from a Non-rooted Verizon S5 phone to a non-rooted Note 10.1 (2014) tablet? Or do I have to manually download each app from the play store to the tablet? My phone apps should all be stored on the sdcard. I don't know where password data & etc is stored. Basically I want the tablet set up the same as my phone with same apps.
Thanks if anyone can help. I searched for any threads on this & didn't find anything, unless I didn't make the right search.

Easy trick to S-OFF for those who have TMOBO10 and HBoot 2.15 topic

Hi everyone, I am fairly new to doing all this, but for last three days or so, I've been really frustrated due to not getting S-OFF on my HTC one s ville. I want to run Sense 6 ROM by Liberty, but was having lot of problems, so someone suggested I try to get S-OFF. I tried rumrunner like 5 times, but failed. Tried installing other ROMs and did it again, still failed, but this what did it.

1) FIRST, flash the following ROM (CM11S_ville_2.15_v3.1_kk-final, from this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-...one-s-t2869703), it has its own Kernel, so just flash the boot.img as usual and flash the ROM.
2) Now go ahead and restart your phone and activate the debugging, etc. Also make sure SuperSu is in there, if not, then go ahead flash that again, then restart your phone and open the app to activate it.
3)HERE IS THE KEY NOW --> CHANGE YOUR KERNEL TO THIS --> bubba_kernel-2014-07-26_Ville (get it from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2134535). Download it from Post# 2 at the bottom under Donate and FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FROM POST #4
4), go ahead and let the phone turn on. Make sure SuperSu is still there and activated. Also set screen timeout to maximum, so it doesn't go blank on you, DEACTIVATE all screen locks as well.
4) Make sure all your drivers are up to date (FOLLOW all the instructions on http://rumrunner.us/instructions/)
5) Tip --> Follow this video step by step (key is to make a separate folder which has rumrunner and drivers together).
6) Run the rumrunner and don't forget to disable your antivirus software and firewell in your computer.

I am sure this will simply get you S-OFF easily.

It just needs an "unsecure kernel" and this one does the job :).

[TRICK] How To Make The Lockscreen Transparent *super easy* topic

locate (or create) the following file and disable the read permissions
/data/data/com.cooliris.media/files/zzzzzz_lockscreen_wallpaper.jpg
(to locate/create and edit the above file permissions use a file manager app able to navigate the /data folder.
NOTE: Manual edit of files in /data/folder require root permissions so the Andriod system must be rooted first
NOTE2: This trick works on Samsung Galaxy Y stock ROM, on which the system looks for the file zzzzzz_lockscreen_wallpaper.jpg located in /data/data/com.cooliris.media/files to be used as lockscreen wallpaper. Other ROMs might look for different filename and/or different location.)
That's it! :D

As side note I want to add that my first read about this topic was, about two weeks ago, a thread started by XDA member recognized contributor marcussmith2626 more than one year ago (How To Make The Lockscreen Transparent) which explains a more sophisticated way to get the lockscreen transparent and that might work on a variety of ROM and devices.
Then I accidentally discovered the above trick by my own (I forgot to set the permissions after replacing the jpg file) and I decided to share it here even though I don't know if anyone had posted the same trick before as comment at the marcussmith2626 thread or anywhere else in XDA or the Internet virtual space ;)

[Library] BobEngine - Easy to use 2D game engine for Android topic

Hello, XDA!

I have created my own 2D game engine that utilizes OpenGL and sports many features to help make programming 2D games for Android as quick and simple as possible. I created this engine for use in my own projects but then I thought why no make it open-source? I think other people could benefit from this and input from other developers could help fine tune this thing so it's as good as it can be.

So I gave my engine the name "BobEngine" after my online alias and uploaded the first public release called "BobEngine 1.0 Thingama" to GitHub. That was months ago and now I've finished working on the next update: BobEngine 2.0 Shishka.

I've got a post on my website detailing what's new in update: http://www.bobbyloujo.com/2015/01/bo...ka-update.html


BobEngine uses a similar structure to GameMaker games so if you've ever used that you may be interested in BobEngine. BobEngine uses a specialized BobView to display the content of Rooms. Rooms are collections of GameObjects which each have a graphic and attributes such as x and y positions, width, height, angle, frame, etc... Rooms and GameObjects also have step, newpress, and released events built in. The step event happens each frame, the newpress event happens when a new pointer is touched on the screen, and the released event happens when a pointer is lifted from the screen.

There are many other tools included with BobEngine and the best way to start learning how to use them is have a look at the examples that are included! In the GitHub repository you'll find an Android Studio project called "BobEngine". This project contains the "bobEngine" library module that you'll need to include in your own projects if you want to use BobEngine. Also in the BobEngine project are modules for each of the included examples. Currently there are examples that demonstrate the structure of a BobEngine game, how to use input from the touch screen, and how to manipulate the camera. I'll be creating more examples in the future to show off all the things you can do with this engine!

All the methods and data members in BobEngine are internally documented and the examples include a lot of internal documentation to help you out as well.

I'll keep updating the library with new things as I think of them. If there is anything you think should be added go ahead and post about it in this thread.
