It is not possible without rooting. You must root your device
I did all the methods as it is as suggested or explained but when I start my high end game (modern combat 4) it first checks the needed data files and then gives message to start play after that the game restarts but ends with a black screen and doesnt run any forward…plss get me a solution of dis problem asap…
Hi, i ve been using my grand 4.1.2 for about 2 months…and frequently i experience a black screen for a sec..and then the display is back on again,still in the same task as before,but the colour resolution drops a bit and the colors seem somewhat pale… it takes a while for it to get back to the right colour scale….this happens even while playing a game ,searching a contact, and even when left idle for a while…..
i would really appreciate any suggestions for this prob…
thanks
