Pimp My Rom (Beta) for Android
The best root app out there by far! By tweaking the Davlik Settings my kindle fire hd is sooooo much faster than before and even though it said it would use a lot more ram it dosen't really! One dissapointment though is that the beta is slower than the alpha version. But otherwise Amazing! KEEP UP THE WONDERFUL WORK!
Phone runs noticeably faster & smoother - thanks! Tweaks are mostly explained but some knowledge/care needed & backup recommended. Was unable to download any of the apps so am looking forward to trying those later (download window opened but no progress). Bear in mind this is a beta app & that it's free - it's a powerful package that enables your phone to perform at it's best. Already a great app & it's early days!
Seriously developer thank you so much. It's about time someone made an app where most common root options are avaliable. I think the in-app transitions should be removed though.The app does use quite a bit of memory I have seen RAM usage well over 80mb. All in all though great idea and overall good app. Definitely one for the books. Some more features would be nice though such as , 3rd data cap removal option for faster Internet. Options to allow access to hidden menus such as engineer ext. . Thanks guys:)
A very clean and easy to use all in one rom tweaking tool. It may not contain all the options others have but, the options it DOES have are excellent. Kernel and i/o tweaking are nice. I don't have any issues using this and it's been one of the best thus far.
I highly advise nobody uses the DPI settings unless you want to render you're phone completely useless. Aside from that and a few other bugs. This app has everything I have ever wanted for my ROMs. I mean WOW! Thank you devs.
The app nearly bricked my phone. I accidentally change the settings that I have tweaked using another app. What has been turned on (such as 2D to gpu functions) was detected as off. And when I turned that on, the app only toggled the flag. Effectively turning off the said gpu functions.
I cannot open now games and gallery an posting in instagram..Please help me reply with the better settings for my gingerbread2.3.6.. I dont know ...its just my 3d games with high graphics wont open.. The root checker says my phone is so slow..@markpascual16
Cool stuff, was not applied correctly. You need to fix the freezing when switched through categories and clicking things. There is no reason for it. Also, my Add-ons/mods won't install. I click download and it is frozen at 0%. I would enjoy the features if I could acually use them.
I can't even open any of the tweaking menus because they crash immediately. This didn't happen until you guys put in all the fancy 3D appearances. The old style looked better(less cheesy), and it worked. Please go back :/
Pretty good feature rich rom customizer. I have an issue though. The apps/mods section in the app dosent seem to work, the Sony Gallery, Bravia Engine2, Xloud and Beats assets don't download when the button to download them are tapped.
1. FCs in the help section. 2. Unnecessary animations (least you can disable them) 3. Text too thin and tiny on my galaxy tab 2 7.0 Other than that app works great, main features working perfectly.
When I used Pimp My ROM and checked 'zipalign apk', my phone was not able to boot again. I tried clearing cache partition and factory reset but still, I'm stuck at my phone's logo. Can't even install Rescue.zip :( Don't know what to do anymore.
Awsome tweak all in one apps make more easy to write, tweak, or modify whatever i want, but please tell me how to download bravia, sony enhance, and another supporting apps like this? Cause when i download it, just stuck on 0/100, please fix it <3
I think it's working. Not sure cause I'm getting "missing busybox", even after installing recommend one and even when I bought one?!? What's with that? Great options though. Would give all stars but the message keep popping out. I tried db optimization and zipalign, looks to me that they did the job.
Hi, the app looks awesome and seems like a brilliant idea, however, the pimp my beats app doesn't appear on my tab (Nexus 7 2013) after install. Am I missing something?
I wanted to get my camera better quality but it says I have to go to the play store and accept terms and conditions, I can't find terms and conditions! Someone help me. Then I will rate 5 stars.
When I press reboot button it just doesn't work .I tried waiting 4 minutes and it still didn't work. Is there any solution? I will give more stars if you reply!!!
animations may be good.. but not as user friendly as alpha.. rescue package sucks coz' i can't flash it via recovery.. sorry but i'm just tellin' the truth.. (i9505 stock deodexed/TWRP)
I noticed an incompatibility with devices that has a higher (heap growth limit) example. My phone's heapsize is 128m and in the app, there is only 96m. I don't know if I should worry about this thing. Will it affect my phone's performance ? :/ But still give it 5 stars cuz I already used this app before and it made my phone faster. And there's a lot more.
Some tweaks works like a charm like the touch screen tweaks but some others froce close,pimp my beats and other mods/tweaks that require download is not downloading,when I clicked download,it remains at 0%,maybe the download link is dead or somthin.Please,i really like the audio mod to be working on my device!,, But most off all its FREE!! n easy to use.Please fix the downloadable content in the next update,overall,its a best root app!! Thx alot,nice job!! ;)
Great app with excellent features presented perfectly. Only criticism I have is that the downloads for the apps and mods section doesn't work which really sucks because I was super keen to try out pimp my beats on my new nexus 7
App force closed and generally freaked out while using it. First full reboot gave a boot loop, had to flash rom again... I'd prefer the flashable zip. Seems to work better. (though it doesn't work in its current state, either) scared to try this again, work tomorrow...
There are allot of bugs to he worked out. Its a great app overall, however the app constantly crashes when I tap a "?" For help on what something is...and then for "Apps & Mods" I can "Install" the beats mod, yet I cannot download it...it stays at 0/100 until I hit back or foreclose the application. This applies to the Bravia Engine and VPN mod as well...Please fix this and I will gladly give 5 stars! :)
I loved this on my old phone but haven't been able to use it on my new one yet. Even though i have SuperSU installed and granted permission, it keeps bringing me to the play store page for Superuser and asking if i have root permissions. I would prefer to use SuperSU over Superuser.
This app is awesome, and your hidden bonus got me so excited I was "shaking".
If you want easy way for tweak your phone, you must have this app. But beware, some of tweak maybe didnt compatible with your phone so use it with caution n please dont blame dev because of this :)
Just wondering what devices all these were tested on and whether they are compatible with my nexus 4?
I cant get tweaks or mods to work i hAve busy box and i dont want to have to reflash i dont have an unlocked bootloader
A lot of tweaking apps can be really difficult to understand without considerable mental effort; this app is so well explained there is no real problem. Even if there is still difficulty there is an extra tab just given over to help; whether the help is good I wouldn't know as it has never been needed. There are a couple of tweaks on this, such as the sony bravia which just makes your device better without even thinking about it. This has to be one of the first apps to get on any device.
Unfortunately the beta has more bugs than the Alfa. Frequently get fc's. I'm sticking with the alpha until the issues are resolved.
Cool stuff, was not applied correctly. You need to fix the freezing when switched through categories and clicking things. There is no reason for it. Also, my Add-ons/mods won't install. I click download and it is frozen at 0%. I would enjoy the features if I could acually use them.
I tested out the dpi changer and then noticed after reboot that the program doesn't allow you to set itthe dpi over 300, my phone's default dpi is 442 so problems arose quickly.
Trying to set up a rescue and all I get is " something went wrong, try again later " app looks cool but unfortunately I can't try it out.
For a beta this coming along really well. Of course there is a few bugs here and there, appears to be compatible with my s6 on 5.0.2 so for me it is all good. But the pimp my beats looks like a function in which I have to pick at. This has a great design and really can't wait for the final/out of beta release. Thumbs up Dev. All around good application.
None of the downloadable mods work. Other than that they all work. No problem, its beta
Yo, I like the PMR UI a lot. Its cool, fast, and easy. Only thing is, for some odd reason, I can't download the rescue package or the Sony Album or the OpenVPN things. Nothing seems to download. I haven't rebooted yet, but idk. I really want the sound clarity thing as well, but it just doesn't download. It stays at 0/100% Pls reply. Thanks and good work :)
I used this and my HTC One won't even boot up anymore. I don't know what to do. I hold in the power button, I see the HTC Logo like regular, then the screen just goes to black. I'm writing this from my PC. What I edited was whether I wanted the Nexus Android Navigation bar at the bottom, and I restarted by pressing power button in and pressing restart. What can I do? This isn't working. Do I need to do a factory reset? Also, it is the ROM that comes with it.
Many great tweaks! Best tweaker application for Android, hands down. However it never recognizes that I have busy box installed and crashes when I want to read the help section for each tweak.
I used to use this app all the time then I stopped for awhile using different phones and different roms now I cone back to find downloads aren't working :(
by Y####:
used this app since alpha, alpha version worked better imo. key word being "worked". no longer able to download the mods like bravia and beats. used to be able to install from the zips via recovery, which is handy since applying a new cm nightly resets all the settings for this app. now I can't get the most out of my rom, however still wouldn't go without it. bravia, xloud and clear and beats are a must since I've had them before!
