[General Questions and Answers] DeuxEx:
I found a solution and it's working:

1.Download KDZ updater and uncompress it

http://www.4shared.com/file/UleS4dP3/KDZ_FW_UPD_EN.html

2.Install msxml.msi from the uncompressed directory

3.Charge your battery to almost full state (I'm not sure, but it can be reason if phone doesn't start)

4.Turn phone off somehow (remove battery etc.)

5.Install drivers properly•Get rid of all usb drivers like Nokia, microsoft visual ++ run time environments

•Install the LG drivers by selecting the update manager from the lg site

•Disable LGE Virtual Modem. In your Windows operating system, go to Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager > Modems > Right click on LGE Virtual Modem and click Disable.

6.Press and keep pressed "Volume up"+"Return" and connect USB cable to phone

7.Yellow screen with text emergency mode should appeared

8.Shake the handset (I know, it sounds ... strange, but it helps for ones, so... why don't try it?) UPDATE: Read some quotes on bottom.

9.Run KDZ_FW_UPD.exe (Has administrator).

Select Type : 3GQCT (I have one report that CDMA mod works too)

Select PhoneMode : DIAG (in case of fail try EMERGENCY, and as last chance use CS_EMERGENCY)

10.I Recommend do not switch phone off. There was some people, which done it and after they were not be able to turn it on again. If flashing failed, just select some another mode and try it again, again, try shake/connect disconnect, again, again....

11.In KDZ file : Choose the ROM file you downloaded in the first step

12.Press Launch software update

13.Shake the handset (I know, it sounds ... strange, but it helps for ones, so... why don't try it?) UPDATE: Read some quotes on bottom.

14.Make sure that all update was done successfully. Phone should restart itself automatically

15.Disconnect the USB cable from the phone

16.Press the three button combo for HW reset of device i.e volume up + home + power button

TrevE > CIQ

Nuff said!!!
[HTC EVO 3D] guitardoc64:
Another victory!!!! TrevE is forever my hero!
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
While this is nice and all the article seems to be lacking some knowledge in itself on some things. mainly the fact it included iPhone in the list of devices that would be getting updates. I'm pretty sure Apple commented on this long ago stating they do not use CarrierIQ in their devices anymore at all.

And I can't really see Sprint able to force Apple to load it on the device either...
[HTC EVO 3D] tech7:
Awsome just hope we didn't make it worst for sprint
[HTC EVO 3D] zone23:
I just had to laugh I mean Sprints network already sucks how could it possibly get worse. CarrierIQ is not going to fix 4G or even poor 3G speeds due to network congestion. They know they have a problem doubt they need an app to confirm it.
[HTC EVO 3D] PhreakAccident:
Can you say Pwned! TrevE is the man!
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
Tons of idiots. Ciq is made to learn how you do things, so they can make it better. Yet, you complain about things your phone can't do. How the **** are they supposed to know what you want if you don't tell them? Oh yeah HTC is supposed to troll the forums and sees that one person doesnt like sense and remove it bc one person doesn't like it. Or they could use ciq, see that 50% of people who have sense, use a different launcher and then rethink their approach. You guys are pathetic.
[HTC EVO 3D] DarkManX4lf:
How are we pathetic..... Ciq is the one that is pathetic. They had the chance to explain what CIQ does but instead they try to silence TrevE. On top of that they install CIQ without even letting you know.

I understand that it's probably used to make phones and services better, but they should at least give you a disclaimer, an opt out option, and an explanation of what CIQ does and maybe then so many people wouldn't be angry at CIQ.
[HTC EVO 3D] southern87:
I think the *****ing and complaining is like he said...the fact they covered it up, tried to silence someone. Not that its probably bad software but bad business ethics. Agreed?
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
Oh please, its fine that you are ok with invasive measures that reduce your personal security, freedom, and privacy but criticizing other's opinions based on your lack of knowledge is crap. When your life is ruined because data isn't protected and you didn't authorize or get the choice in giving that info up I hope you remember your BS logic that the risk is fine and dandy because they were "trying" to gather data to improve things.

So naive, yeah they want to mine and transfer data to make your life better. Wrong, bottom line is the almighty dollar. They make millions doing what they do, they could give two ****s less about you and your experience
[HTC EVO 3D] sprkat85:
+1 so true
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
Information was still being withdrawn from my phone without my permission. Individual info should never be given out for free nor taken without consent.
[HTC EVO 3D] campchi:
CIQ might have done the right thing collecting error logs on the phone to troubleshoot. But installing it on devices without user permission or any kind of disclosure of the software being install is just "unethical".

P.S. the reason why they are being sued was due to unethical practices.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
The fact that it was capable of reading texts, emails, URLs, passwords is what the problem is. We're just supposed to believe they aren't using it for that? Why the hell is it even possible to do so then?!

Cuss all you want..you can be a tool. I'll go with the crowd that wants it gone.
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
LOL! When my life is ruined? They aren't stealing credit card and social security numbers, they are just reporting what apps and hardware is used during the day. Huge difference. Yeah, CIQ didn't do the right thing with the lawsuit, boo hoo life goes on.

You know people at your local bank track everything you do, have access to your credit cards and social security number. They can tell you where you've spent your money, what you bought, and all your personal information, yet nobody cries about that. But its a huge deal to report to Sprint that your playing angry birds at 1pm.
[HTC EVO 3D] wardfan220:
That's because by choosing the bank you opt into that, and go in knowing that they can track your money. And for the record they don't know what you bought, just that you spent so much money here and so much money there. The cc from the bank gets an amount taken not an itemization of funds spent per transaction. CIQ was added without knowledge, why can't you grasp the differences?
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
http://allthingsd.com/20111201/carr...monitors-service-messages-ignores-other-data/

Learn what it really does before you jump on the zomg my personal info is compromised!!1! Bandwagon.
[HTC EVO 3D] wardfan220:
First of all I never said anything about personal info. I don't like how it was forced onto us without control. Second, just because they say (AFTER they were found out about) that their software does do anything with personal data doesn't mean it's true. The US Gov said there were weapons of mass destruction and we should go to war, there wasn't and we were there for oil only. Don't believe something especially when the company has their back against the wall trying to fish their way out.
[HTC EVO 3D] XDAuser1919:
Iraq war is a great analogy for Carrier IQ....
[HTC EVO 3D] wardfan220:
lol, I thought so, although I think that's a little sarcasm.

My point is don't believe what you're told unless you've personally read the defense report(lol) or eula. Oh wait they didn't include an elua did they? Sounds like they're honest to me.
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
There's 10s of thousands of things in the phone going on without your knowledge, why is this any different? Oh that's right because its the interwebs and bad information spreads like wild fire. If this scares you, wait till you find out what your ISP does with your information.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
This is much different than most of the things that normally go on in your phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
What information they receive and what information it collects are two completely different things. If they only use it for a select few things then why the hell is it still embedded in every single aspect of the OS and firing off debug msgs showing that it is watching all this stuff that it doesn't need to be?

Not only is it a waste of space and waste of clock cycles/battery, but it's a huge security hole since all of this information is being dumped to the debug logs that can be retrieved by anyone.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
+1

I bet none of you looked at your contract When You signed it...

I want anyone who thinks sprint installed/had it installed on there phone without written consent to go to the sprint website and look at the bottom of the page for "privacy policy" link....

Lol the FCC passed this and allowed them to use Ciq.....

You all signed the contract but didn't read it?
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Actually yes I have read my contract, and no where in it do they say they would be installing software that has access to and will leak every single detail about my phone and how I use it. Including personal information such as my websites, text messages or anything of the sort.

Now HTC's disclaimer for HTC hub is a different story. It basically says any and all of your information is free to them and anyone they want to share it with.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Who can retrieve it?

Sprint can't... not without a subpoena

CIQ can't use it or sell it becase the FCC wouldn't allow it..

And if you think all Your porn sites and sexy messages are sent to the FBI or CIA you have bigger this to worry about then modifying phones.... I.e. medication
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Anyone who looks at your logcats can see it. That information is retrieved and sent out all the time by apps and OEMs for debugging purposes.

It may not send it to their HQs or to the carriers, but it leaves a record of everything it sees in the logcats. Now why is it even watching those things if it doesn't need to be and isn't utilized, and why were they incompetent enough to leave the debug message on after release if we're supposed to be trusting them with this information?

Carrier IQ even admits they ****ed up in regards to this but they're blaming it on the OEMs for not disabling the logging
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Go qoute the privacy policy you signed with sprint

its on the bottom of there home page.....

Its not "leaked" to anyone and if you think it is please provide me a link t the gigantic data base that has it for public viewing .... over how many million android phones out there this "leaked info" would have to be stored somewhere... Mr. Conspiracy. Theory. Where is it?
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
You have absolutely no idea what this software does or how it works. Please educate yourself a little more about it and when you're ready I'll be happy to provide you with the source code to show exactly what it does and does not do. Although, you'll at least need to know what a logcat is and how they are used first.

https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2011/12/carrier-iq-architecture
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
I know what it is designed to do... keylog damn near everything you do...even without a internet connection

You all think its new.....

Please Mr. Xhausx

Go quote the whole section in the sprint privacy policy... please

If you don't I will....
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
I know it's not new and that's not the point, I've personally known about it for over a year and a half now. Although admittedly, not that it encompassed quite so much.

My question for you then is, what are you trying to prove? Are you justifying it by somehow saying that there is some obscure legalese that makes it ok? Or perhaps you are under the impression that just because it's in a contract, it's ok for them to break the law?
[HTC EVO 3D] Jrex:
Woah! CIQ personnel seems to be crawling from every corner now that the gig is up!? Why troll dev forums?
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Wrong, you can't break the law just because you suckered someone into signing a contract. And yes, even if they unintentionally broke the law, they still broke it.

For one thing, the contract will never hold up in court unless they can prove that both parties new exactly what they were agreeing to. And two, it doesn't matter what the contract says if what they are doing is illegal.

Try telling a judge that it's ok you sold crack to an undercover cop because you both signed an agreement. See what he says to you. The text messages being recorded? Illegal under the federal wiretapping law. Keeping track of the location of a minor? Also illegal in the US.
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
Everyone wants all the security the world can offer, but wants to be excluded from being scanned. I bet if CIQ would have got a message that prevented 9-11, they would be hero's and it would be a requirement, however, your more worried about some random computer script reading your text messages to your nerd friends and getting caught looking at porn.
[HTC EVO 3D] bloodrain954:
Illegal to record a text? Hahhaha, everytime you send one its recorded. Also you must be 18+ to sign a contract, you lose again. Your just making up these "laws".
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
So the FCC allowed sprint (or any carrier) to require manufacturers to install data logging software to have it overturned almost two years later because people think its leaked?

I understand dude.. I don't like the fact that a company has all my data/key strokes and phone numbers in a giant data base... but the proving it in court that both parties knew the contract will hold up because you are suppose to read and agree to ALL policies other wise you can cancel if you don't...

And crack head contract with a undercover cop?

You need to go outside... people are being "entrapped " by these cops... and still get the shaft...this has nothing to to with person-vs-person contract

Its a multiple million (billion) dollar company

You think there gonna let some developer Sue them over something that's in the ****ing contract?

They have 40 full time attorney's. For this small ****...

Now if they can prove this data is being sent or used by a third party or the government then hell yeah he has case...
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Well apparently so if Congress is already referring to the federal wiretap statute (18 U.S.C. § 2511 et seq.), the pen register statute (18 USC § 3121 et seq.), the Stored Communications Act (18 U.S.C. § 2701 et seq.) and the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (18 U.S.C. § 1030).

Go back to trying personal attack kid, there is no excuse for this and nothing you say is going to justify it. It's big enough and there are enough pissed off people that no matter what you and their lawyers say or do the public outrage will overwhelm them.

All you have been saying so far is that they suckered everyone into agreeing to it and they're lawyers are powerful enough to let them get away with anything. You're not helping your case any.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Agreed

Yeah obviously 99% of these people are Harvard law... but failed to read a contract and understand there is a reason you have to be 18
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Have the official link that they quoted the laws against CIQ?
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Try looking up the laws on google.com, I'm sure you're capable of finding and understanding them by yourself.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Oh getting puffy now... don't get all "Google it yourself kid"

When you stated this ALL wasn't in the contract....

If your gonna say someone said something show a link.. your smart you should know that and isn't that a xda "law"

Give credit where it is due!?

Well goodnight guys I'm done debating fact vs conspiracy
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Goodnight, it's been fun :)

http://franken.senate.gov/files/letter/111201_Letter_to_CarrierIQ.pdf
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Haha its a inquiry. Forum to see if further investigation is needed and AT&T and a few manufacturers. Already sent their policies and EULA with answers to their corresponding. Senate member

Looks like you need to read what sprints policies and EULA is before saying its illegal... you are no Senator so for you to assume they are breaking the law from an inquiry forum only shows mob mentality. You just rinse and repeat what others say...

Now when Congress or the supreme court says " you broke the law" ill come bow down to you

Sorry I tried to fall asleep but just to respond to the PDF file that is just as " useless" in court as you think the sprint service agreement is
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
Innocent until proven guilty of course, won't argue with you there. Although, I bet I am much more familiar with their software and what it's capable of then you suspect. They're lawyers can say whatever they like, but, as Carrier IQ has already admitted, someone along the lines made a huge mistake. It appears to be the OEMs at fault but the damage has already been done to everyone involved. And it's Carrier IQs name on the software.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Well the epic touch has a "CIQ free update" so time will tell...

I don't feel as violated now as I did a month ago... I may only know what trevE showed on the video and a few media site view on it (which is almost more enflated than it is in here)

And after talking with a possibly fake attorney through emails and Dan@sprint reps/ managers I really can only see the FCC making CIQ modify. There scripts
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
If you would like to find out first hand what it's capable of a good place to get started is the original thread here.

I just decompiled the entire evo 3d ROM into smali and went from there. You would be surprised at how much stuff there really is for cIQ in it, even the calculator has more code for cIQ then it does for the actual calculator part of it.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
I know generally what it does... which is scary enough in its own... I have read alot but ill check the link out.. thanks and hope I didn't offend I kinda get ranttastic and heated over debates...

I'm happy sprint is fixing it... but the only way to remove it is through OTA update and I'm not losing my s-off for it if someone already FULLY removed it on a rom.

I've seen most of it removed but I thought some of it was programmed into the hardware?

But if sprint disabled it from there end.. I'm guessing its still logging on our end
[HTC EVO 3D] Showtime7:
All they really had to do was add something to the Setup app and Settings Menu that lets you check/uncheck CIQ. This, of course, would need to FULLY disable/enable it to be valid. But I'd be perfectly cool with that. This enables us to get rid of CIQ without root, and would be a very small OTA, which is good. I mean, I'm still going to root, but I don't like being FORCED to root due to my distaste for CIQ.
[HTC EVO 3D] NewZJ:
Is it too much to ask sprint to create an app that generous individuals would be able to install on the phone for sprint to track the desired statistics rather than having code imbedded into the phone silently?
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
How is it silent?

My only argument (and sprints) is simple

Why didn't you read your service agreement and privacy policy....
[HTC EVO 3D] SketchyStunts:
No. From what I understood it could log & collect everything you do. From personal data to secure websites like PayPal & banking.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
And again everything it may collect is in the privacy policy

This isn't new... carriers have held texts and personal data for a long time 5+ years
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
SketchyStunts is on the money. From a security stand point, this program is horrendous. Whoever said that that part was in the Privacy agreement has obviously never read it and is being spoon feed crap.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Have you read it... its posted in the thread...
[HTC EVO 3D] SketchyStunts:
doesnt matter. 99% of mine is stripped away now thanks to TrevE's app & manually remove a few other things. Bottom line is they dont NEED to know all of this **** about us.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
They encrypt all data the sprint doesn't need.. like websites emails and texts....

Its not like they can see what your sending... just because its logged and you can see it logged doesn't mean its used
[HTC EVO 3D] Sad Panda:
A contact with illegal terms is void. A contract where person a states the terms and person b interprets the terms differently than intended is void. They didn't get specific enough in the terms as to the data collection and how far it went, so the terms agreeing to that collection are voiding the contract also. Unless you can seriously tell us you interpreted the terms to mean the actions the ciq software does. I certainly didn't, there was no melting of two minds in this contract. Thus, void. Go read about contractual law.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bear gri11z:
Funny how it states everything CIQ does... yet your reading between the lines as if they sell or use the info/data in a way it does not describe

Then yes its void
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
The first line is false with the exception of the content of text messages as saved in their final form by the Carrier IQ software. The second line is moot since it is recorded to the logcat logs for all to see. The fact that you can see it logged, as it is being saved in plain text in said logs, is unacceptable. That information can then be retrieved by any app with access to the system logs and is routinely sent off to third parties. The contents of text messages are included in there since they are handed to the Carrier IQ daemon in plain text and are logged as such.
