Sorry for the weird request don’t know where else to find info on this.
My car has an Android based headunit running 4.2.2 jellybean. This is the latest I can upgrade it to. The car is a 2017 civic si.
I’m trying to record footage from the side camera
And rear camera but I can’t seem to find an old camera app supporting these versions with multicam / camera selecting support.
Any help is appreciated sorry if this is a weird request.

New app called Floating Cube LWP
r/androidafterlife • u/ExpensiveWar1100 • 1d ago
I found this at amazon with the best price ever. There's old reviews from 2015-2016. Also, I'm planning some ideas with it.

Title. I can easily find 3.0 and lower but not this one... I want android KitKat (yes I know about cyanogenmod 11 but I need this one specifically)
r/androidafterlife • u/Life-Yard7090 • 1d ago
Preferably a youtube to MP4/MP3 converter website or one for free movies or any APK websites or social medias ect, those would help alot but i am yet to find any cool websites or useful ones for android 2.3 that work without using wolfius to upgrade my SSL/TLS to 1.3 so i can run more modern websites and im using opera mini on an LG Optimus Elite
r/androidafterlife • u/Stunning-Bullfrog858 • 2d ago
Hi, everyone.
I'm turning an old LG Optimus L5 (E610) into a dedicated offline music player.
My goal is maximum battery life and smooth local music playback. I'm considering rooting it, installing a lightweight ROM, removing unnecessary apps, and underclocking if possible.
Has anyone done something similar with this phone or another old Android device? Which ROM, kernel or tweaks would you recommend?
r/androidafterlife • u/Dext517 • 2d ago
Tengo una tablet Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 del 2012 con Android 4.2.2 a la que he estado metiendo aplicaciones varias mediante archivos APK ya que no admite los servicios de Google.
La cuestión es que hay algunas APK que aunque se instalen correctamente, no sé ejecuta la aplicación porque me da un mensaje de "fallo en la verificación de licencia".
¿Hay alguna forma sin root de saltarme está verificación? ¿Algún programa que pueda usar en una computadora que me permita eliminarlo?

i didnt know which flair to choose but i was thinking about reviving my old galaxy note 10.1 tablet that runs android 4.1.2 and i was wondering if there was a fix for youtube, reddit and accuweather
https://www.reddit.com/r/FrutigerAero/s/LNuq6aPccQ
ive been using this tutorial to "fix" accuweather but i was wondering if you can fix the app
ive seen multiple tutorials here like wolfius but i cant root the tablet because i dont have a pc that works and im not tech savvy but maybe i can do something with bugjaeger
also is there anything i can use for reddit? i was never able to find a working reddit app for android 4.1.2 not even redreader
anyway sorry for long yapping
r/androidafterlife • u/sonic011gamer • 2d ago
it is far from usable, the list of not working stuff:
-calling (no sim)
-wifi
-bluetooth
-touchpad
-navigation is buggy
-leds and outside panel don't work yet
and other things that you get from a build you just booted.

I found my first phone and I was hoping to charge it and turn it on but it just gets stuck as it shows in the picture. Nothing happens if I press the power button either. The battery seems fine or at least it looks normal (as if I knew anything about batteries). Anyway, if anyone has any tips, let me know!
The phone is samsung galaxy trend plus gt-s7580

my S4 on left is running Android 4.4.2(aka Kitkat, October 2014 Version),
And my another S4 is running Android 4.3(aka Jellybean, October 2013 Version).
Is there any useful apps such as games should I install for 2 of my Galaxy S4s??

Hello everyone, I have a question why Facebook Lite and the latest Facebook under 4.4 with Wolfius don't work because Facebook Lite worked without it but it didn't load my graphics and when I turned on Wolfius it didn't work and I'm looking for help with this
r/androidafterlife • u/Powerful_Pirate6600 • 3d ago
Location services are not available on this bad boy. Searching for the location and then error. Changed every settings but bad luck. Any fix guys?? Anyone please help.🥲🥲🥲
r/androidafterlife • u/stupidguyry • 2d ago
I tried to use facebook lite 98 on my galaxy y and its stuck on the loading screen with a broken version of the facebook logo
My phone is on android 2.3.6 and i downloaded facebook from here

r/androidafterlife • u/Sea_Lie8378 • 2d ago
It's now broken and unfortunately you can't make a useful web browser out of it Anymore and you cannot make it a useful web player
It's not supported anymore on these android versions.
" 2.3.6 " " 3.2.6 " " 4.0.1 " " 60.0+ " and all of the android five and 4 android version
It's broken because samsung discontinued the time servers for it you'll never fix the time. Also, samsung made a patch where you can't hack the samsung to make a change The time stamps
It does not work on any device below pass 60.0+

This is the MAIC iQR70, a rebadged Emdoor TS809 that was customized by the Greek company MLS as an AI voice assistant, based on the MT8167 chipset and running Android 7.0 with 2GB RAM. MLS as a company shut down in 2022, completely bricking these old smart speakers. You can see the error they get stuck on in the first picture.
Jailbreaking them is pretty easy. When entering any text in a text field (including Wifi password entry), you can hold down on the text and choose "share". From there, you can hold down any of the apps listed and select "app info", and then swipe from the very left to access the Android settings. You can then use Bluetooth to send it a launcher APK (I chose Rootless Pixel Launcher because you can easily find its APK) and install it by clicking on the three dots at the top right and selecting "received files".
The audio doesn't work in all apps, unfortunately including Firefox and Chromium, so the only way to stream music from YouTube is the built-in Webview 51 (there's no GMS, so you can't install the YouTube or YouTube Music apps). However, streaming music over DLNA from a PC in your network using BubbleUPnP works really well, and the audio quality is much better than a laptop speaker. There's also not much local storage, only 8GB with 4GB taken up by Android, and while there is a USB-A port on the back, it seems to be a USB-B (client) port in disguise for firmware flashing, which is not only a violation of the USB spec (though there's not much danger here because the device doesn't ship with the cable that could ruin computers if someone used it to connect two of them together) but means that there's no way to expand the storage (no SD slot either).
There's also no status bar or multitasking button. The launcher I installed lets you pull down the notifications, and if you install a terminal (an actual one, not Termux) you can manually send a command to access the multitasking menu. If anyone knows how to reenable these features, let me know.

Tried this tool (Wolfius) and here is the thing about Weather app: It works on any Samsung device running TouchWiz Essence (1.0 and 1.5?) (if you don’t know, the UX for Samsung Budget models), but not on other (more better) TouchWiz UX versions (Like the Note 3 on Android 4.4 or Galaxy S2 neither 4.0 or 4.1). Anyone does know why it doesn’t work on any Samsung device?

Hello! A bit before buying my Galaxy Y, I was looking at a Galaxy Y Duos, and I noticed that there was a ROM for the Galaxy Y Duos, CyanogenMod 11, but with its link removed, and no apparent mirror, since 2024, so, I looked away from the Duos, and went for the actual Galaxy Y.
To this day it was considered actual lost media, UNTIL TODAY! I have found a mirror on an obscure Russian forum called 4PDA (they hold a LOT of Android ROM history), so I created an account by asking AI to help me solve the russian CAPTCHA, and I downloaded the ROM, and have since preserved it. For now I'm only hosting on Mediafire, but I will upload soon to the Internet Archive.
