Can't ANY root path be used for malicious purposes? Not trying to be argumentative, but any route to root (any "exploit") can arguably be used by an evil mind to embed a trojan or virus into our phones. We should have all known that going into the whole root scene from the beginning. Did we already forget the recent Android trojan from an app originating in China?

http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Security/A...nd-in-Chinese-Alternative-App-Markets-110139/

And it's getting worse as we speak:

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/06/01/android_trojan_rash/

And how many of us play Angry Birds? This news broke just yesterday:

http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2011/06/android-malware-angry-birds/

Kinda makes you think twice about how vulnerable our rooted phones are, when the exploits in the links above don't even need root.

Bottoms up! ;)

[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pvtjoker42:
Looking for a way to take the zImage file to put CWM on the CDMA Tabs and put it into a tar file that will work to flash via Odin. For whatever reason Odin works, but I can't get Heimdal to work on either of the pc's i've used to flash all my phones previously. Just want to know if there's something specific that needs to be setup in the .tar so that Odin will flash the zImage file correctly. Or if someone already has a .tar for the CDMA Tabs with a working CWM I'd appreciate a link.

Hey guys, looks like i have to choose a new rom to my Folio. For me, Foliomod was perfect but suddenly the screen got unresponsive (freezes), even wipe and reinstall didnt work. So i want very fast and stable rom for my folio. What do you guys suggest? Or maybe someone has the answer for my foliomod problem? Unresponsive screen happens only on Foliomod... :(

Hi Guys

Just bought a 2nd hand Ace (UK) locked and branded to T-Mobile 2.2.1

If I install the VillainRom am I correct in saying this removes the branding and roots the phone !

I have downloaded all the files from here etc...

Also I read all this 'Bricking' if I try and unlock the phone with the methods posted on here, do I chance this, or get a code for a tenner etc ?

Thanks

Branding & root

I don't know about branding but it obviously gives you root permissions. Hence you'll lose your warranty.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] casiocas:
You can UNROOT it any time, with this:http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12874680&postcount=1

And you can go back to your stok ROM. Just register in http://www.samfirmware.com/. There is all what you need to flashing back to your stock ROM.

CHEERS! :cool:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] maxmix:
Thanks, I kinda knew about the going back to original Rom, I regged on the Samsung site a while back, I have these files...

Well I used Odin and the 2.3.3 Villain Rom from one of the guides on here, all went well, (After I got the Ops file lol)

This also removed the branding and the phone has the Super User icon now, so I presume it is Rooted now...

The unlocking is dodgy from trying to read the code from the phone, so i'm just going to buy a Network unlock code...

Thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer General] liput_81:
If I use the android default on screen keyboard instead of the Asus keyboard I get incorrect key mappings with the dock keyboard. It appears to use the USA layout where the @ key is above the number 2 instead of over on the rightas it should be in the uk keyboard layout

I guess this is related to the warning message when connecting the dock if you don't use the Asus keyboard about it nit behaving correctly

Is there a way to use the android keyboard and then still have the dock keyboard work correctly withuhaving it change back to the Asus on screen keyboard?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Backwardsblade:
not that I know of. I also have issue with the ASUS default kb, I have to switch back and forth to use hard key mapping in console emulators. I haven't found a solution yet either.

First of all, good evening to you all and thanks for any explanations.

I have the following problem, until yesterday I installed the following Roma Android Revolution HD 5.1.9, kernel MDJ V22, radio and the respective RIL 04.11_M2 and my download maximum HSDPA coverage has never exceeded 3Mbps.

Today I installed the rom Dogma V3, V22, and keeping the kernel MDJ radio / ril 04.11_M2, suddenly my download is up to 6Mbps aumenteto ??????

I then rebuilt a complete wipe and reinstall another rom but nothing to do with all my rom is slow while HSDPA Dogma no!

Does anyone know give me an explanation on this?

Dhd I use often as a modem connected to your PC and the download speed is very important for me and I would also like to keep the Android Revolution HD

Sorry for my bad English manages school
[Desire HD General] nicolegiusy:
Nobody knows anything ?????

I think it's a problem of any energy savings that reduce the performance

3g signal because I have also noticed that the rom Dogma also has a better signal reception and slightly more stable.

The problem is that with this rom difficult to arrive at night with my use while ARHD get there safely.
[Desire HD General] 3x1at1on:
Not every ROM/RIL/Radio combination is compatible with all carriers, I think you are just unlucky that ARHD rom with its RIL/Radio combination doesn't suit your carrier.

I would suggest going to ARHD team IRC channel and see if they can help you, they are very helpful people.

But maybe that you cannot use that ROM with your carrier :(
[Desire HD General] Flussen:
I'm not sure if this helps but i've written a thread aboit hsdpa speed improvements a few months ago.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] imbecilebychoice:
Hey, how's it going everyone? I am new to these forums, and I have attempted to do some searching around, but I have yet to find a true answer to this problem. So, I love my Samsung Infuse. I just got it roughly a week ago, and I am basically switching from my iPhone 4. An issue that I am having is that I want to be able to take pictures in portrait mode and landscape mode, but the camera doesn't seem to be designed to take pictures in portrait mode, as every picture I take like that, the picture always comes out at some 90 degree angle. Is there any way to really fix this, so that I can take pictures in both modes? Maybe a handy application that I haven't seen in the market? I just want to be able to turn the phone one way and take a picture, which I don't understand why it isn't implemented in the first place. If anyone can help me out, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] cipher20:
I am not sure if this will help what you are trying to do or if you already tried it. There is a turnwheel kind of icon on 1 of the corners when the camera application is turned on.if you click that, there is a option for scene mode. if you click on that, you will get various options inside. 1 of them is portrait. hope this helps.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Dani897:
^ i dont think that is what the op means.

op you ar eright the previews dont detect the phones prientation, but they show correctly in the gallary so the phone is detecting the orientation. if they are 90deg off when pulled to the computer then it would seem there is a bug in the orientation, i havent tried copying to my computer, nor sure is there is an issue beyond the previews only displaying in landscape mode.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thebeardedchild:
So when I was on stock, periodically my stock Moto sms app would say "phone storage full, delete some files to make room" and not show any messages. Sometimes I would have to reboot, clear a lot of cache or something, force close the app, etc. etc. to get it to work. And then I started using GoSMS and when it happened, Go would just not show any messages, and without any error messages. Then I go into stock and try to fix.

Now on GingerBlur, with the stock messaging app, sometimes it does the same thing, but it has way more problems...Messages randomly won't send in Go, and I open the gingerbread stock app and it continuously force closes. I HAVE to reboot in these circumstances, which is very frustrating. It basically just crashes in a ton of different ways, and no amount of cache clearing or force closing or anything will fix, so I'm forced to reboot like 3 times a day to fix this. It happens randomly. I'll be texting someone, no problems.. Then I'll just get another text from them at some point in the conversation and when I open like normal it'll just crash (stock AND GoSMS). This is a really frustrating problem, does anyone know what the deal is? Perhaps this phone isn't meant to have the Gingerbread stock messaging app?

Then again, i still had problems on Motoblur with the Moto app...
[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:
I had to get some information sprint store, so after I got it I started playing with phones. I ran an online speed test with an evo versus my nexus. With 4 g the htc handed me my ass.

My prl is 60679, you can see in the picture what the other phone is. the nexus on display has the same 1 also. I have grj06 and the display has 22. To make matters worse, side by side, the display gets 10db more signal than I do. Man I'm pissed! Does anyone have an answer for this?
[Nexus S General] snandlal:
Lots have this prl. I think its people with corporate discounts. It roams 3g unlike yours

[Nexus S General] herbthehammer:
Or something else I was thinking, it could be if the phone is ever stolen, that the tower nearest the store is the only one it will work on. Next time I go to a different sprint store, I should check the phone and see if it is the same number

Details on Sprint PRL's 60678 and 1115 by darkfire79 04:23 PM 04/29/2011 -- [Reply]

Here are the details copied from the XDA forum. hxxp://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1056648

Here is the lehman terms about the PRL's. People who are on individual accounts will be receiving PRL 60678. It will not have 3G Data Roaming enabled.

Business and corperate accounts will be receiving custom PRL 1115, which does enable 3G Data Roaming in the six states listed below.

For all the details please read the attached files. You didn't get these from me

National & Custom PRLs Available for FL, MI, OH, WVA, & WI

Sprint has released Custom PRL 1115 and National PRL ending xxx78 that will impact subscribers who roam in these states.

Custom EVDO PRL 1115 – Provides Business IL and CL subscribers with continued 3G/Mobile Broadband roaming services.

Consumer accounts in these states will experience a loss of 3G/Mobile Broadband roaming services. Refer to PRL Newsflash (xxx78).

Delivery of this Custom PRL is dependent on eligible Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Phones/PDAs and Mobile Broadband devices.

Devices not eligible to receive the Custom PRL will receive the National PRL and won’t have 3G/Mobile Broadband roaming in these areas.

National PRLs (10078/50578, 20278/60678 and 60778) - Removes 3G/Mobile Broadband roaming coverage for all consumer accounts with push capable phones/PDAs and Mobile Broadband devices.

This coverage was previously enabled with PRL xxx77 and is now being removed since it didn’t provide the expected on-network capacity relief.

In an effort to strike the right balance between customer experience and roaming cost of service, the 3G roaming coverage will no longer be available for consumers but available to Business customers via Custom PRL 1115.

Consumers receiving these National PRLs will still have 1xRTT data roaming service available in the impacted states.

Sprint will begin proactively pushing the PRL to subscribers with in these locations first, then to the entire base. Subscribers with Mobile Broadband devices have to accept the PRL update prompt via SMARTview to receive this release. :D

Obviously his wife is desperate to keep him if she's trying to track him. Don't judge the OP and move on. Everyone acts like a perfect saint on XDA.

[EVO 4G General] Pao23:
She's trying to figure out if he actually is cheating so she can leave him, is more likely the truth. He's hiding it because he's scared, quite acting like he's a mans man. And looking at a woman and sticking it in her are not the same, my wife even comments on another woman's beauty to me. And if he wanted left alone to live his life how he wanted the best route is usually not to come and broadcast your actions on a discussion board...just a little something to think about.

I never acted like a saint, I will say I don't feel so inadequate that I need to cheat, however. If you don't want to be with someone, don't be, it's really not all that hard.

You want the real probability? He knows if she finds out, she's gone, he simply doesn't want to pay child support/alimony....again, coward.

For reals though, this type of topic does not belong on here. He could have asked his question in a way without disclosing any of the information related. Note to future scum bags, just keep your info private, because more people have a healthy conscience then the movies/news would have you believe, you really are the minority in this world.
[EVO 4G General] jayharper08:
Gq I usually agree with you homie, but not on this one. You can seriously sit there and say that looking at someone at the mall and going behind your significant others back and fu&$ing someone is the same? And I don't think anyone is trying to be a saint here. Nobody is bragging about donating money to the needy or saving an old lady from a moving train, but someone is bragging about cheating on someone. C'mon man you know that ain't right.
