Clean Master Review for Android! [Root] All-in-One Android Cleaner

Check Out The Video Below!

Clean Master app for Android is a similar app that you may have heard called Ccleaner for desktops. This app essentially does the same thing just on a mobile Android device instead. Lanuching the app your presented with the amount of space you have on your internal and external SD card on your Android device. 

Once you go deeper in the app you can go ahead and free up space like cache, privacy information, and just junk files that you may have forgotten about. Just one thing to note it that this app requires you to be rooted to fully use all the features the app offers!

On top of just deleting useless data you can also easily uninstall apps with a single tap to save you a lot of time instead of constantly going to the Play Store to uninstall the apps you never use. Once you have used all these methods you can go to the main section of the app and see how much more space you now have!

How to Root AT&T Galaxy Note 3!


This guide will show you step-by-step how to root your SM-N900A AT&T Galaxy Note 3. This root method is going to be a little different than your usual Samsung rooting guides since Knox is included in the AT&T Galaxy Note 3.


With Samsung Knox security the Android community needed to find a work around to root the device without alerting the security software and letting Samsung know you modified your device some way.  


Currently this guide will root your AT&T Galaxy Note 3, but there is still no way of installing a custom recovery (CWM/TWRP) yet. Once the Android community finds a way I will be releasing a guide on this site, so stayed tuned!


Follow the guide below to root the AT&T Galaxy Note 3!


This will delete EVERYTHING from your phone! BACK IT UP!


1. Remove external SD card from your phone if you have one.


2. Now enter into Download Mode by turning off your phone. Then press and hold the volume down, power button, and home button at the same time. You will get to a screen to ask you to press the volume up to continue, press it. 


3. Now plug in your microUSB to your phone and the USB cable to your computer. 


4. Download and extract N900AUCUBMI9_VEGA.7z using the link below: 


Download N900AUCUBMI9_VEGA.7z
5. In the extracted folder you will get "N900AUCUBMI9_OneClickBin" application. Click start and wait about 5-10 minutes until it passes and your phone reboots. 

Also you should get a yellow or blue box at the top of the application, if you do not then install Samsung USB drivers and try again. 

6. Enter into Download Mode again (repeat step 2) and keep your phone plugged into the computer. 

7. Now open "Odin3 v3.09". Then select "AP" and locate and select "Root_de_la_Vega.tar" file. This file was in the same extracted folder as Odin. 

8. Now click "Start" at the bottom of Odin. This process will take 5-10 minutes so be PATIENT! Do not touch your phone! After the process is complete your Galaxy Note 3 will automatically reboot in the normal state.

9. Now unzip Root_de_la_Vega.zip, this file is located in the extracted "N900AUCUBMI9_VEGA" folder. 


10. With your phone still plugged in transfer "root_de_la_vega.sh" and "root_files" (folder) to your phone. NOTE: Do not transfer these files into a folder, just the general phone directory! 


11. Now reboot your phone by holding the power button and then selecting restart. 


12. With your phone plugged into your computer delete both "root_de_la_vega.sh" and "root_files" (folder) from your phone. 


13. Again, fully reboot (repeat step 9). 


14. Once your phone is fully booted up your done. Your Galaxy Note 3 should now have SuperSU installed and you can use rooted apps like Titanium Backup!

CheapCast App for Android! - Turn your Device into a ChromeCast Dongle


CheapCast app for Android plays the same role as a ChromeCast dongle, but instead of viewing content on your TV you view content using a spare Android device you have around the house by simply installing the CheapCast app on your Android devices.

Simply start the CheapCast service by pressing the play button in the app and then using another Android phone you can play, pause, and launch any YouTube video you want to the 2nd Android device. Very useful for people who have an extra Android tablet or phone collecting dust.

A couple negatives to this app is that volume control doesn't work and other application like Netflix and Chrome Tabs currently don't work with this app and they may never work. Currently the only application that is working is YouTube. If you have a spare Android device try out this free app!

Download CheapCast for Android using the link below!
Get it on Google Play
