[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgibo:
The main reason for asking question is if the deployment tool stopped working for anyone else. After I got Chevron on there I was able to install screen capture, accent changer. Screen capture worked. So I removed accent changer and followed instructions for interop unlock install. Then saw the thread for internet sharing and interop in one. Installed that to phone. Got internet sharing:) Then tried a few different xap files and couldn't install any. So did that xap mess something up? Guess I will look elsewhere for answers.

This is all they have on MSDN site.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This can be caused by several reasons, including if the device is off. If the device is already connected, sometimes disconnecting and then reconnecting the device may fix the problem. Rebooting the device may also fix this problem
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voluptuary:
You do have internet sharing OFF right? You can not deploy XAP's with ICS on. I don't mean to be rude but it really does pay to read the whole post when someone gives instructions on how to do something before saying it messed up your whatever.

Of course if you have ICS off then I'm sorry for this little rant and all I can suggest is restarting your phone and PC and trying again.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgibo:
ICS is and was off. Found other posts with same message. Currently reinstalling dev tools. I do IT support for a living and hate havinng to do troubleshooting on my own stuff:) From past experience with computers it is either a coincidence or cause when a new problem occurs. Hence the questions asked. I do remember seeing an odd usb error in system try when I was doing step 4. Did a troubleshoot on my Focus connection but that didn't help. Also tried all usb connections. If the reinstall doesn't work will have to get my htpc out and try on it.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgibo:
Reinstall didn't work. Since it stopped after running system tweaks I am trying again. Wish the instructions had a note on how long after hitting the save button before it was done. Has the Loading GPRS Profile for System Tweaks on screen. I think I may have hit the close button yesterday while is was still showing Loading. Right now I am not touching phone till I see it go away. Unless you are supposed to hit close right after hitting save.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] voluptuary:
The settings are applied almost instantly, as soon as it says loaded after you hit save then you can hit close and restart. Another user stated they had to turn ICS on then off again before he could deploy XAPs. Another question, you haven't turned on wired tethering have you? I ask because if you don't set your phone back to Zune sync you also will get the error you are getting.

EDIT: Main question, does Zune see your phone when you plug it in at all? Can you sync media? Cause if you can't you have another issue that is beyond anything my XAP could have done.
[Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgibo:
That kind of worked. Turned on ICS then back off. Got Advanced Config to install. Now get UnauthorizedAcessException. Click ok and app closes. Go from one issue to another.

The company said the new tablets use Nvidia Corp.'s (NVDA) Quad-core processors and are upgradable to the Android 4.0 operating system, also known as the ice-cream sandwich platform.

It said the new tablets will hit the shelves in December.

The company said it will also sell a detachable dock for the tablet that will cost NT$3,000.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dxtra:
The restrictions and carrier IQ are two different things. To remove carrier IQ a dev need to help us out on that part it's deeply integrated.

The Carrier IQ isn't affecting certain website that I can see. All it does is collecting user's data. Which I don't like.

They probably have it because they want to control everything. We all know att. They also know the xda community is growing bigger and bigger. And everything is free here. I think there more worried about all the free tethering and not paying for it. Just my thoughts on the matter.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] jake:
OK I respect your opinion. Do you really think that a mega-company like AT&T is concerned with what a few of us folks do with our phones? There are gazzillions of iPhone users that would never dream of altering their precious device. Case closed.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Daedalus_:
I bet you read that post about sprints carrieriq and misread it. The data on sprints phones are hooked into, but not logged or sent to sprint.

There isn't even conclusive evidence that carrieriq is enabled on the skyrocket so people need to chill.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] crawlgsx:
Even if it is is, MOST of the things people are paranoid about with CarrierIQ, the carrier can ALREADY do! IE: See what sites you visit, your texts, your phone calls. They have had this ability for a long time, carrier side.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Daedalus_:
Also if I'm not mistaken, that's google's collection service for their targeted ads and google location suggestions. That's why it's called android.iqd and not com.carrieriq.iqagent which is what sprint uses and what you guys are paranoid about.

I've been searching for the carrieriq on this phone and and can't find it in places it has been in other phones. Specifically in /system/app, /data/data/com.carrieriq.iqagent, and in init.rc

What's your point? Referring, educating, Et4g. What are you saying? I ask how to remove IQ. You said there's a thing call search. I replied none on how to remove it for this phone. You reply bla blah. Dude You think I'm here for fun. I want to fix my network issue, remove that stupid carrier IQ that all it does slows your phone and kills your battery and then disappear. I know some in here are concern about this issue If your not keep it moving.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mbze430:
Whelp I can say from owning the phone from the very first day it was release till today I have never seen the IQ service enable. and I am looking at the system level.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Daedalus_:
Well it seems by this post that android.iqd is carrieriq. I opened up a terminal on my phone to stop the service and then kill the one that is already running but it starts itself up again (see photo). It shows that logging is disabled though, so the only concern you should have with this is that it drains battery and hogs resources.

Here's a commented out section from init.rc

# [YYJ][CIQ][110421] Apply the gingerbread reference code +
#disable iqmsd
#service iqmsd /system/bin/iqmsd
# disabled

#on property:service.iq.active=1
# start iqmsd

#on property:service.iq.active=0
# stop iqmsd
# [YYJ][CIQ][110421] Apply the gingerbread reference code -

In ueventd.rc:

# permission for CIQ
/dev/sdio_tty_ciq_00 0660 system system

See that it says CIQ standing for carrieriq. The service executable is iqmsd in /system/bin/
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] bidyut:
That could be CityIQ. I remember seeing that APP before I removed it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Daedalus_:
No, that's carrieriq. See my previous post.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Dranakin:
Hmmm...so it just restarts after killing it? I'm more concerned about battery and resources, since I figure Google can already see everything on my phone.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Daedalus_:
I set the service to disable then I kill the running process and it launches up again and re-enables itself. All the CIQ stuff has to be removed from the apk's and the files. Not sure how to do all that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] davidshooki:
Wrong!

If in the past they did not use software on the phone itself to actively record what you were doing, all they could know about you is extrapolations based on web browsing and information you share online.

With their own software on the phone actively recording everything (spying) and sending it to them, there is no need to extrapolate and guess. Now they have extremely accurate information that is a lot more personal.

For example they may note know how many times you used the camera and what pictures you took with it (;))... they will know now if they want to.

But than, I am a noobee and don't have a clue what that IQ software is other than conceptually what can change from passively listening to web activity compared to actively collecting data on the phone itself.

...And no, you may not care about whether they check out the music you listen to and specific web pages you were on, unless they keep track of how many times you looked up rooting on xda or how many times you downloaded stuff from their competitors, or just learning how you play games without going online or use mapping software that is not theirs... so in their next software updates they will find a way to force you to go online and charge you for it.

They can also check your text messages and phone calls (in/out). We have had to use the police (they contact the carrier) to get text record messages before.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Daedalus_:
The IQ service however requires lots of CPU wakeups switching the CPU from idle to running. There are reports of increase battery life after CIQ removal too.

I wasn't hating. I was saying that you shouldn't assume there's CIQ on it before there's confirmation, which I provided, and you shouldn't assume it's sending data automatically to ATT.

Hi, Skyrocketers. I'm disappointed to see the mutant ten-legged spider that is CIQ has made it over to your devices. By the items posted in this thread, I can see that indeed, it is genuine.

Guys, it's not that hard. Just post a kernel dump and it can be repacked with Carrier IQ disabled.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] k0nane:
Wrong. Carrier IQ lives in the ROM, not the kernel. It's deeply integrated into several JARs, and several APKs. It varies per device, but framework.jar, ext.jar, and services.jar are common to all of them.

EDIT: And, uh, the point of my coming here is that I know exactly how to remove it, and will, after I build up a deodexed stock ROM for you all. ;)

Appreciate your support... :)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gtg465x:
It doesn't matter where it "lives". The service is typically started from init.rc in the initramfs, which is in the kernel. The iqmsd binary is initiated from there. At least on the Infuse, stopping the service was as simple as removing a few lines from init.rc. There was no need to modify frameworks or even remove the userland portions of Carrier IQ after doing that because they weren't running anyways. Maybe whatever devices you've worked with had a different version of Carrier IQ than we've seen thus far on AT&T devices.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] k0nane:
iqmsd is only the tiny tip of the iceberg - and not the actual service If that's the only thing you had running on the Infuse, you got very, very, extraordinarily lucky - but I somehow doubt you actually removed anything by turning off iqmsd. iqmsd is around on all of the Sprint Android devices with CIQ; stopping it does next to nothing, one still must manually hack the beast out. The service is started by a boot listener, not a binary.

Also, I've been in the init.rc for this device. iqmsd's lines? All commented out by Samsuck.

Again, trust me. I wouldn't waste your time, let alone my own. ;) Now, digging into it - the libiq_*.so files are present as expected. I'm going to continue to dig and see what I find.

EDIT: Yep, still there. Signs of life in services.jar, the full client living in ext.jar. Just leaves the service portion. And there it is, as expected, in framework.jar. Here's what starts it (BootCompletedReceiver): http://pastie.org/private/oz9teedbssyu2sqdycxedw The proper removal method leaves that particular file as the only one left (removing it creates a looping crash that can't be avoided), but guts it, by replacing all mention of IQService with a blank string. The end result of my complete removal process is a complete kill of the service. The only trace left is libiq_client.so (statically linked, removing it = bootloop), and a completely-empty android.iqd process (never figured out what starts it, probably something in the native library, but I do know it's 0-byte, just an empty shell).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] gtg465x:
Maybe this phone is different, but I did indeed completely disable Carrier IQ on the Infuse by simply preventing iqmsd from running. On the Infuse at least, iqmsd initiated the various portions of the Carrier IQ service, so preventing it from running prevented all elements of Carrier IQ from running. Yes, I also removed various userland bits from my ROM after modifying init.rc, but that was really just cleanup.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] k0nane:
Further edits, see above.

You must have gotten ridiculously lucky on the Infuse. This device looks (and functions - as iqmsd is already disabled, and I confirmed that did little back on 2.1 with the OG Epic) just like the OG Epic and Epic Touch.

There are outlier Samsung devices that only require an APK removal and the like. So there will always be the one or two that doesn't fit the pattern. The rest, though... they all look about the same. CIQ is CIQ. And it's turtles evil all the way down. We can all agree on that. ;)
