Spasms, please advise,

searched for a toogle to switch beween 2g/3g just by one touch for the sake of battery, and found an application that is not working on our release, because of signature issues, can you tell me how to get it signed.

This application switches automatically to Edge while in sleep mode to save battery, and then back 3g if you woke the device up.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
Oh very interesting. For the other "lag" problems reported I have no clue how it would happen to mine and not to other 1.9.9's out there since what I do is pretty much taking stuff out and add dspmanager and such. I doubt they cause lag.

I don't experience any lag too, I did experience the NEO r12 kernel not wanting to wake up at times, which is annoying. So switched back to stock for now.

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tanivula:
Just installed V5 and getting it back to how I've got it set up. I've got a problem with the digital flip clock widget that's built into MIUI - it's out by 12hours so its 12.28pm (just after midday) and it shows up as 00:28!

This is the first time i"ve noticed this - don't think it was an issue on previous MIUI releases

edit: After a reboot all seems ok! Wierd! /edit
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] awandroid89:
i just flash v5 last night with no wipe...

all seem good.no different from previous version:confused:...

but still good enough.no lag...just need to change superuser permission manually in setting.after flash the automatic clock show china time and after change to my place time its back to normal..any other i thing miss to check?

Btw thank spasms..:D:D
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
It seems to be an issue related to the modem. I use KC1 and sometimes it takes a while, a minute or so before it finds the network.

I'm trying to get the setup wizard to work properly. For now you could flash gapps after flashing the rom.zip and you will get the setup wizard to set timezome and such.

I could edit build.prop and set the timezone to something else, but that would only help those in CET.

As for APN problems (I ran into some myself) I've added multi csc folder and after a reboot my APN was listed again, this has been added to the rom too. Sometimes you do need to press the menu key and make it load the defaults though.

Any fixes or suggestions are welcome. A simple setup wizard would be nice, rather than all the Google stuff. Just something to set your preferred timezone, date format, and maybe configure a wifi network and your google account for market/gmail/gtalk.

I'm not a coder so I wouldnt have a clue on how to make that. It seems Google uses a tiny apk (onetimeinitialiser or something) to launch the setup wizard only on first boot.

But it's fun to toy around with this ;)

Have just realized that the name of the thread has been changed, any news about the link of v5.1
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
Sorry my mistake. I'm uploading V6 now. I personally have no problems with the camera or photos it takes.

V6 has been uploaded, direct link here.

Don't download until the hash file is there too.

For V7:

I got the setup wizard working fine now, but if you restore a MIUI backup before rebooting the setup wizard starts again. I guess either MIUI backup kills something or does something causing the wizard to restart. So I'm unable to restore any MIUI backups until I've rebooted your device at least once after initial install/google setup.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
Well I have noticed quiet a few thibgs about camera!

firstly those weird images are generally produced when battery is low or their is high amount of sunlight or pitch dark! Mostly when battery is low u get black and red pictures and very very highly pixelated and focus doesn't work then! But i think its a kernel problem! As on version 5 no such problems have been noticed by me and on v4 all these problems were their as you changed the kernel!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
New bug in v5 instead of auto reboots I am now facing auto shut Downs which generally happen when phone is on charging!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] :
I think that is what I had with NEO kernel. But to me it seemed like it just didn't wanna wake up from deep-sleep.

We need a stable kernel with Voodoo Colour/Sound. I don't really like Talon if not just for the branding.

What other kernels are "stable" and would be a good replacement for stock?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] bhu1:
I have used talon and its indeed stable but the real problem in talon us that water flowing battery life! What about fugumod people say its gud or glitch kernel!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] tanivula:
I've been having a great run with Neo v9 Redux. Think Zach still thinks it's his most stable kernel. Slight issue with the ffc but I don't use it so not a big deal for me. Everything else seems to work well. Hopefully he can iron out the bugs with his newer releases.

Has anyone tried glitch's kernels?
[Android Themes] rachelm920:
I have an ADW icon pack that I downloaded from the market. I pulled it, decompiled it, edited the icons, recompiled it, signed and reinstalled. Although I renamed the apk to blue.apk and changed the strings.xml to name it "Rachel's blue" it still tried to write over the existing apk I had installed. The only way I could get it to install on my phone was to remove the original market apk.

So my question is this: How can I make it my own and have it installed the same time as the original? I'd like to keep both ADW icon packs on my phone.
[Android Themes] iamthebigcheeze:

Hi all.

I have searched but not found. I miss a feature from my old HD2, it was possible to deny a incoming call with a sms. Like: I'm busy right now, call you later. Have been talking to HTC support and they told me to take a look at Market.

But I don't want to BLOCK incoming calls or texts, just the possibility to deny them with sending a sms to the caller.

Is there a workaround somewhere? :confused:

Anyone else missing this?

Very interesting idea. All Apple apps on Android....I have a iPad and a Touch, this would be sick.
[HTC EVO 3D] life64x:
This means, any apple software ran on the emulator, if it gets working, would be paid apps? Or would they be pirated since it was not from iTunes store? This is a sure fire way to give a reason to piracy. Also the idea they can buy it thru iTunes...well, they check serial number of device and it's unique key. This alone means you cannot get em. I seriously doubt apple will let the software be run on any other devices. The project seems cool, but I would rather have the real thing.

I very well could be wrong, (because I've never owned ios), but isn't there an Android emulator in "itunes"?

[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
Hi Everyone :)

Because I'm lazy and was tired re-rooting manually my devices after installing manufacturers OTA updates, I wrote an app that protects root in one touch event.

It is available for free on Android market and its source code is Open Source under WTFPL (github).

Translations and code contributions are welcome.

Features: :

- Backup root before OTA & Restores it right after.

- Temporary un-root your device.

Requirements:

- Device must be already rooted.

- Protection is effective only for devices with Ext2/Ext3/Ext4 /system partition

- Non ExtFS devices will still be able to use the temporary un-root feature

OTA RootKeeper will detect what's possible or not and display available options accordingly.

Typically works for: Nexus S, Every Honeycomb tablets.

On ExtFS partition, root survives anything but true formating or partition wiping.

It means some update tools like KIES/Odin for Samsung device will wipe the whole thing anyway because they write complete new partition.

I needed this app so I wrote it, hopefully it will be useful to you too!

Android 4.3 Notes:

Based on Android 4.3 release notes, on Enterprise and Security, Restrict Setuid from Android Apps, su binaries and Superuser apps designed for previous Android generation will simply not work on 4.3:

It means preserving root with OTA Root Keeper won't be possible anymore as new rooting techniques rely on more than just a setuid su binary in /system.

I'll look into solution of course to preserve the functionality if possible, but until then please follow Chainfire's job on SuperSU betas.
[Android Apps and Games] nanujra:
Aw, so its a no go on my sgs2..

Thanks for the amazing work as always anyways!
[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
You're welcome :)

On Galaxy S II, temporary unroot is working and allows you to "hide" root from stupid apps refusing to work as expected after detecting root.

Its not really hidden but so far, those stupid apps (like Google movies) use stupid detection routines.
[Android Apps and Games] crypticc:
Supercurio. do you think you can backup Superuser.apk too please. I can see where it needs to be done in github but I'm no expert in compiling apk. or Will apkmanager work for that and i Will have a go at that.
[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
Why backup Superuser.apk?

If it's not installed, you already get automatically a button to access the market page automatically.

When you update your device via an OTA, Superuser.apk is not uninstalled.

Please describe your need ;)
[Android Apps and Games] crypticc:
Thanks for replying.

Busybox because is part of xbin and could be lost.

superuser apk because that would be a full unroot and reroot in one app. E.g. If I want to unroot during work hours and reroot after say if work sync calendar app doesn't like root.

Or do you think this will be a nice way to cut my teeth on android development? I see two java code places that seem to backup and then restore.
[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
I never noticed an OTA that destroyed xbin directory? Do you have an example? (please show me the updater-script so I can study it)

Why I made this utility is because /system permissions are reset via recursive chmods during OTAs: what causes su binary to not be efficient anymore.

But saving files in not the main purpose. As long as you're rooted, you can re-install busybox in /system anyway.
[Android Apps and Games] crypticc:
Ah. I am thinking odin not ota

Ta
[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
With Odin the whole partition is wiped, I can't backup/restore root − and as a result restore busybox either because it would require root to do so.
[Android Apps and Games] crpeck:
Any reason not to backup su to /data instead of /system? I've tried this on a Bionic and it works just fine. I tried this:

adb shell

su

cp -p /system/bin/su /data/su

rm /system/bin/su /system/xbin/su

exit - reboot phone

adb shell

/data/su

I'm root.

Seems like /data has a better chance of being untouched and as long as it's mounted correctly that copy of su will be there and executable.
[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
Yes. Every Android device is supposed to mount /data with "nosuid" option, which makes su permissions inoperative.

The modded test device you used miss that; it's kind of a bug ;)
[Android Apps and Games] kiansoft:
thank you very much

[Android Apps and Games] matthskim:
Do you have to install this program after reverting to stock? Or can you install it in any custom rom before the OTA update?
[Android Apps and Games] supercurio:
You need to install this app, make the su backup before applying your OTA.

Then, the app will be able to restore su.

If it's an OTA, this app and Superuser apk will still be installed after applying it.

Do you need to revert to stock or not before applying an update? That I don't know; depends.
[Android Apps and Games] cbb77:
Wow, this may be the app I have been looking for. I have an app for work that will not work if it detects root. Really would like to keep my phone rooted as some apps I have require it, such as Titanium Backup (which I love). I am going to give this a shot tomorrow and see if this works for me.

Hi,

apparently I did something wrong while using this app to keep root when updating my thinkpad tablet. Everytime I click on "Restore root" it says "Voodoo OTA RootKeeper has been granted Superuser permission" and "root su restored", but nothing happens. I also tried to run /system/su-backup but it doesn't work as well because it doesn't have execute permissions (which seems to be the actual problem). Is there a way to fix this? Because otherwise I'd have to stay at stock ICS because there is no root exploit (yet). Thanks!

Acer a100 error in remount

First, I'd like to say that I appreciate you making this app and that I run it on every android device I have. Good work. That said, I recently installed it on my rooted, unlocked Acer a100 running ICS and there is an issue with the command to remount system as rw. I have attached my logcat files, and in them your remount command goes as:

"mount -o remount,rw /system /system"

This fails to provide the rw access the program needs. Removal of the second "/system" fixes this problem. The line occurs both in the creation and deletion of a backup. Running your commands for backing up root and deleting the backup with the corrected remount lines in shell seems to work fine, as does your app when remount is done manually just prior using Root Explorer.

I only tested backup and delete, as I'm new to this and wanted to wait before checking out the temp unroot. So you might want to give the commands for that a lookover as well.

Thanks again for the app, and sorry if I rambled on longer than I needed to. As I said, I'm new to this and wanted to be thorough.
