If something has always loved about Android is its customizability. No, I am not one of those users who love to change thousand graphic interface elements, alter transparencies and animations. To me what love is provide the system with more functionality , so since I started with Android in 2009 I have always been a lover of root and Xposed lately. In that sense, today few tricks for Android that make my technological life happier I’ll leave, and hopefully yours too.
Bring back the silent mode Lollipop
Android 5.0 Lollipop brought at last a long awaited feature, a way” do not disturb “series, but removed something all users used, complete silence . That is, that even the vibration is eliminated. To bring it back there are two applications. Fuller, called SoundHUD, replacing the panel Lollipop volume and presents a classical one extended (with volume control alarm, music, notifications …) and True Silent Mode, which is only a widget that allows to establish from the home screen mode volume we want, and among them the silence is no vibration.
Watch consumption of background applications

I love multitasking on Android compared to other operating systems, because it is the closest thing to true multitasking we can have on any mobile platform, but also has its point negative, is that applications can consume a large percentage of battery unchecked. To limit it, I use Greenify, a free application whose function is to close or control apps that open in the background. If we continue to receive notifications of these apps, need root access and purchase the donation version.
Change the size of interface elements
Left: modified interface. Right: serial interface
No doubt my favorite tricks for Android.. The system also allows developers to change the interface elements, something I value greatly, because as I explained, I believe that large screens are wasted on Android . To change it, we’ll just download the Android SDK for your platform. Once installed, you need to enable USB Debugging in Settings Android developer, and when a box appears on your Android, authorize the computer. Then enter this line in the terminal where XXX should be replaced by the value you want.
For example, on a Nexus 4 with resolution (720p), whose string value is 320, 280 introduce recommend. In a OnePlus One, whose string value is 480 recommend 400, and a Galaxy S6, for example 540, and its string value is 640. Then, restart the phone and you will enjoy a temaño more content on the interface.
Squeeze your Android with the best utilities
Thank you to run indefinitely in the background, We can install wonders like Fliktu, TapPath or Clipper. With the first, as we saw, can replace the share of Android menu and share with gestures different links and the clipboard contents. With the second, set functions according to the number of taps to do on links , and the third, monitor the clipboard , for porder no nothing.
Use third-party applications to enhance the experience
In this case a universal law applies to all operating systems: using third-party apps can enhance the experience . The official apps often go to the easy, or to the most common uses of the public, but not delve into all possibilities. Therefore, I offer a short list of alternatives to the official that I love them
