Before you say it, YES, I've looked at the many other threads in this forum, stockoverflow, and other sites, all explaining the process of how you have to decompile the application APK file and change the package name in the manifest, then sign and install onto your phone. I was able to successfully do it on another application (application wouldn't run but it installed at least XD), but, I can't seem to get it to work on the Skype application. When I try to install the APK of my modified versions, the install just fails, with no error message to go off. I've tried on the latest version as of today, and I simply can't get it to work at all.
Is there anyone who has tried doing this already with Skype and had success? (If so, share your apk!)
Is there a reason why Skype specifically doesn't work? Or am I missing something?
I'd really appreciate feedback on this, I've ripped my hair out all day trying to do this and it just won't work. If anyone has anything which might help I'd greatly appreciate it. I simply wish to run 2 (or more would better) instances of the Skype application at once.
Hi, did you eventually manage to get 2 logins running concurrently? If you did, kindly share the solution. Thanks!

Strange question...
Not wanting to root Verizon M8. Wanting to hack a game. Is it possible to root an "older" phone, run the hack, and then successfully install and play the game on the M8 WITH the hack?
Tried searching for this all over here and Android Central but did not discover anything.
Thanks for any valuable help.
Let me explain.
I have an Amazon Fire TV Stick running Android 4.2. On that devices forum someone posted a stock 4.2 settings.apk. Upon sideloading you had access to things like bluetooth which otherwise the Fire OS does not allow access to.
I have been searching online for an apk, but to no avail. My thinking is that sideloading a 5.1 settings.apk onto the rooted Lollipop rom would allow access to Developer Options, running apps, more detailed battery stats, etc.
Has anyone tried this?
Could anyone help me find a stock 5.1 settings.apk so I can try it for myself?
Thanks
Hi, I would be grateful if someone could help me root and install a custom rom on this device. Please refer to the 3 images showing detailed information about my tablet.
Thank you very much for your help.
hey did you ever get this rooted?
Hi guys. I am also very much interested in root for this device. If we manage root on this it will become extremely useful. Please lets keep the thread active. II havent been in this forum for a while now as I didnt have an android device since I sold my Note 5.
I suggest we contact any of the forum members who are advanced in these matters to assist us with the root for Overdyve.
I'm Interested as Well
I'm going to try to dive in and see if I can figure out rooting my Overdryve. Since they don't seem to sell too many of these, I think we'll have to figure out how to do this without a nifty app. If anyone has any thoughts/pointers/useful articles, perhaps they'd share them.

I agree with you 100%. We really need to stick together on this and help each other out noting that these devices are very few. In the event we are unable to root the device is there any other way of enabling Google Play Services without requiring root? If I can get support for the Google services I will be good to go. Currently most of Google apps are not supported. Thankfully Google Maps works as I absolutely needed this to work as the Rand navigation software is not located in my country. I bought this to use away from USA and so far the most disappointing issue is that Rand disabled support for Google apps.
I will read widely and support you where I can.
I bought the Overdryve 7 a few days ago and there is literally NOTHING out there to help Root it, install a custom recovery, or how to install Google Play Services. I have tried rooting it with KingoRoot and King Root but to no avail. I haven't resorted to such generic methods to root anything since Towel root. This is why TWRP is essential to have.
Bump :fingers-crossed:
Edit: Please delete. Wrong thread.
Still nothing new
I have the Overdryve 7, and 8 Pro... hoping that someone out there much smarter than I has been working on this. Eager to make these thing earn their cost back.
root overdryve 7and 8 pro tablet from mcnally

overdryve 8 pro, been rooted for a while now, but Id like to get the OTA updates that ive missed over the last year, and i keep hitting a snag on the OTA verifier...
/system/bin/install-recovery.sh has ben modified... sha1 doesnt match...
there was another file too, but when I rooted, SU made a backup of the other file so i just switched it and it passed SHA1 check.... but SU didnt take a copy of this file for back up...
any ideas? ive tried changing it to a .bak but then fails becuase file is missing....
anyone have a stock 8 pro, unrooted ever, that they can turn on just USB debugging and try to copy the file original file out for me thru ADB debug if possible?
Or anyone know the ile contents for that file on Android 5.1.1 build LMY49I/N8_1_0_170516_275
I wanted up load more detailed specs.... I also have the new OTA update zip, like I said it just goes too error tho because the install-recovery.sh file sha1 doesn't match because I have rooted, and SU remove root and factory reset do not return the original file
Oops file is here

Has anyone figured out how to install Google play services and play store. I got as far as getting an early version of Google store to work without crashing but now it says it can't connect to the Google servers. Oh well something's gotta work.

Anyone able too get into Fastboot on this?
I can see the option and select it from the Engineering Menu, but the decice just sits on the RM logo then reboots normally.
There must be a key combo like too enter the Recovery Menu, but I cant figure it out.
Anyone?
Would someone be able to upload the stock launcher, please? I managed to root and build a custom recovery for my TND740, wanted to try it out.
ji have the OD7C was hoping xda had it all sorted out lol
I have a TCL Flip 2, flip phone, which runs AOSP Android 11, and blocks APK installation. It has a package installer, but blocks APKs from being installed, and sends an error message through ADB when I try to install like that. There is no option to enable apps from unknown sources, and running settings put (global/secure) install_unknown_apps 1 doesn't do the trick. Anyway, how can I go about rooting the phone?
Android 11
Kernel version 4.14.186
I appreciate your help, thanks!
Maybe you have found it already, but for everyone else you can install apks and root with this guide https://github.com/neutronscott/flip2/wiki
I couldn't find this anywhere on Google, so hopefully this helps!
Also TCL Flip Go and Flip 2 are the same phone but with different carriers.

Yes, I already found it thanks. Also cricket flip classic is the same.
Neutonscott is the dev who did anything and everything to help root the phone. He made a custom magisk boot img with a script running to reset the prop which blocks app installation.
you can find a ton of info about that phone on forums.apps4flip.com. I am also available here if you have any other question about it.
