In this video, Ill be showing you a cool little app that gives you a front-facing selfie flash feature in any app — no root needed.
Similar to a feature youll find on iPhones and some stock camera apps, this makes the screen turn white while youre taking a selfie to better illuminate your face. But the killer feature is how it works in ANY app — even Snapchat, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

For security reasons, Android now defaults to Charge only mode when you connect your phone to a computer with a USB cable. But if you use your phone like a flash drive, it gets old having to tap the notification, then pick file transfer mode in the menu.
Thankfully, if you enable the hidden Developer Options menu in Androids Settings, you can choose the default mode for your phones USB connection and make it show up in Explorer or Finder right away.

UPDATE: Fix for Restricted Mode available at the full tutorial.
In this video, Ill be showing you how to install OmniSwitch on Android Nougat. This could work for other Android versions, but it hasnt been tested.
Youll need to have a custom recovery installed to try this out, as OmniSwitch needs to be installed on your system partition. But this flashable ZIP gives you all of the great OmniSwitch multitasking features on stock Android or other custom ROMs.
Some benefits of OmniSwitch include the ability to pin your favorite apps to the multitasking UI, or even launch any app on your phone. Aside from that, you can access some additional settings and customize the entire UI, so its like a power users multitasking interface.

In this video, Ill be showing you an Xposed module called App Locale that lets you set different languages for each of your Android apps.
This is perfect for bilingual users, since you can keep your system-wide locale in the same language, but only change individual apps that you normally use in a different language. Changing your locale will change every menu and dialog in each app, plus you can set as many different languages as you want.

![Use Google Cardboard & Similar Apps on Phones That Dont Have Gyroscopes [How-To]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/M4nC6eTNye0/mqdefault.jpg "Use Google Cardboard & Similar Apps on Phones That Dont Have Gyroscopes [How-To]
Use Google Cardboard, Photo Sphere, & More Without a Gyroscope
Full Tutorial: http://bit.ly/GyroSense
Subscribe to Gadget Hacks: http://goo.gl/XagVI
In this video, Ill be showing you an Xposed module called VirtualSensor that lets you use apps like Google Cardboard and Photo Sphere even if your phone doesnt have a gyroscope.
Many midrange phones are lacking a gyroscope sensor these days, and that can cause compatibility issues with certain apps. This module combines the data from your compass and accelerometer to simulate a gyroscope sensor, which fools these apps into thinking you have compatible hardware.
It doesnt work for all apps (most notably, Pokémon GOs AR mode), but the vast majority of apps that require a gyroscope should work almost flawlessly after installing this mod.

Status will overlay your existing status bar with a brand new one, complete with color-matching and AOSP-style icons. Youll still keep your stock notification shade, because this is only adding a new layer on your status bar, but its a great way to get that stock Android look without rooting.

Why the OnePlus 5T Tops Our List of the Best Rooting Phones
Full Comparison: http://bit.ly/BestForRooting
Subscribe to Gadget Hacks: http://goo.gl/XagVI
In this video, I’ll be talking about the best phones for rooting as we head into 2018. The phone that topped our list was none other than the OnePlus 5T.
Other phones that made the top 5 were the first-gen Pixel, the Moto G5 Plus, the LG G6, and the Huawei Mate 9. You may notice that some of these aren’t the absolute latest models, and that’s because we held off recommending phones like the Pixel 2 as a result of their yet-to-be-determined development support.
We’ll revisit this list in the future, at which point you may see some newer models make it in — that is, if their dev community starts picking up.
