Top 10 Must Have Useful Apps for Rooted Android Phones

Here is a list of ten apps for people who know what they are doing with their phone when it comes to rooting it. Some of these apps are going to make locating files and apps a lot easier. Some of them are also powerful enough to help you completely mess up your Smartphone beyond any possibility of repair (short of a reformat and reinstall).

1 - LMT Launcher

This app gives you quick access to a lot of things on your Smartphone that you would not normally be able to find on a rooted Smartphone. It even has features that help you to launch apps and functions in a manner that is not pre-programmed into the android phone. Although, it still will not fetch a stick if you whistle.

2 - Samba FileSharing for Android

This allows people to use their SD card storage across a network so that other people may see what is on it. This means that finally you will have a good way of showing off your photo album of the world’s most interesting carrot skins without having to upload every image to a cloud service. It turns your SD card into what is essentially a shared folder, which you may access in the same way you would access a SkyDrive folder.

3 - Greenify

This app allows you to remove the many apps that are drinking up your battery life like a senator’s wife at an open bar. It allows you to remove the unneeded and/or CPU heavy apps that are slowing your Smartphone down like a kangaroo pulling your shopping home from Wal-Mart. It helps you to figure out which apps are causing you problems so that you may either remove them or hibernate them.

4 - SetCPU for Root Users

This app allows you to root your Smartphone in a way that allows you deeper customizability, with less of a risk of you completely messing up your Smartphone. It allows you to set the CPU power for certain things, so that if you know what you are doing then you can set your Smartphone to play your games with absolute power as you have set all the CPU power to accommodate it. Or, you can set all the CPU power to the app you built that tells you your hair does not look like a lion hanging from power lines.

5 - Samsung Multi Window Manager

This app allows people to improve the Samsung Multi Window function on their phone. It is not so handy if you do not have a Samsung phone, but you could always download the app so you can pretend to live the dream.

6 - Chainfire 3D

This is an app that will help you to play video games with higher graphics on your Smartphone, so that you do not have to keep breaking into the arcade every night after robbing a phone box of its quarters. It will act as a sort of middle-man software that will enable and disable the graphic functions that you need, so that your Smartphone does not run the software that takes up CPU power without adding anything.

7 - Root Explorer

Unlike the apps name may suggest, this is not an app to help you uncover the secret world of the rooted vegetable. This app gives you almost complete control over the file manager and built-in storage, which is good if you know what you are doing, and terrible if you are hoping not to scramble your entire Smartphone. You may modify or transfer files across the whole android system, giving you unprecedented root control (without needing to physically root it yourself).

8 - Titanium Backup

This app allows you to set up an automatic back-up feature. It will automatically backup your files as you are using your Smartphone, so that you do not lose stuff through things such as your battery life. No longer will you have to re-write your enemies list, as many people with their underwear showing at the top of their pants need to re-write and update their enemies list daily. This app will allow you to dictate how often your files are backed up.

9 - BusyBox Installer

The android is Linux based, but this app allows you to use UNIX utilities, but all from one app. The android is able to perform many composite UNIX commands, and this app will help you to do just that. You will find that most rooted apps need this app to perform their script which allows them to work. Just like some people need an exorcist in order to get them to go to work and get off of benefit.

10 - Root Browser Lite

This app gives people features that help them define root access permission. It is good for if users want to change something on their Smartphone, and allows them to see the edits they have made. It allows users to find folders quicker than a fat kid finds the marshmallows in Lucky Charms.
