  • While browsing through my files, I remembered about that Windows essential folder that you should NOT delete: System32, you know, the one that appeared on some memes claiming that it was a virus. So I thought: what would happen if I deleted some very important applications that Android needs?

    If you delete core Android system files, your phone is no longer bootable. (Also known as bricking your phone)

      You would delete the entire operating system, but you need to root your phone in order to do that, and it would very likely brick it, also removing the bootloader and other partitions

    • @byteseb
      @byteseb  Рік тому

      You probably could be able to set the new one as the default one, but I'm guessing it will require some tweaking, as your homescreen won't be available, so you'd have to find a way to open the settings app and set the new one as the default one

    • @IgnacioEsteves
      @IgnacioEsteves Рік тому

      I think I did something like this once. When you install a new launcher android asks which launcher you want to use when pressing the home button. If you delete the old launcher the home button will default to the new launcher. I can't tell you exactly if something would happen system-wise, but I don't think it breaks android since custom launchers exist as long as android existed.

    Hi, thank a lot for this video, Now i have some idea what going on with my android car player unit.
    Can anybody help me?
    Im not realy a tech guy or one who like to mess up with android setting until i bought an Android TS10 head unit. Im not aware of the recent tech that every android headunit player has its own Laucher/UI that seems to allow only their own hardware (e.g DVR, USB TPS, ODB reader etc) to work, just like an apple phone. I taught all hardware should be compatible with any my head unit as long as it Android. My judgement was wrong.
    I could not use my DVR properly whre i have problem with DVR sound/navigation/peek window/etc. and frequent restart too. The vendor suggest me to buy only their own DVR (dofun brand) which im not really keen on their product.
    My question :-
    1. Can installing a 3rd party Laucher at app store like Nova, Agama, Torque etc messed up with my stock TS10 Laucher (Chinese head unit)???
    2, Will using a 3rd Party laucher solve my DVR problem above?
    2. " "clear default in system settings" message box appear every time i connect my usb DVR to my headunit. what does this message try to tell me?
    thanks.
