I found a couple of fakes in Dragon Mart, Dubai.... its like a Chinese warehouse of fake items. When I go back to Dubai ill get some, I didn't get any as the material wasn't great. So if u dropped it 98% of the time it'll break... give them time and they'll get better.

Are these the exact same looking? If so could you share some pics?

Yes they look the same. Unfortunately I'm not there anymore, and I didnt take pics. Coz I took my other phone, which is in a ICS port. So no camera :( don't worry. I go to Dubai every so often. So I'll take pics and buy a few of them too :)

Hi,

Can someone point me to procedure or guide how to take stock rom fromthe unit and just addnadditional interface language.

Thanx,

DiNo
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Well, you are still looking?

Ok, I popped open a rom, and what I saw, was in the /system/usr/xt9/databases/ldb, were ldb files in multiple languages. (LanguageDataBase)

My guess, is that this is part of the multi-system language based on region.

So my guess, is that if you find a rom (any rom), that contains your regional language, you should be able to copy that Ldb file, into the custom rom zip, and let it re-compress the zip file, then try flashing it. This may give you the language support you are looking for.

It's a guess for me, but, it may work. Maybe something else is needed.

I have a feeling, finding a custom rom in Croatian, will be extremely difficult. So, sometimes, you have to do it yourself. Find your regional HC 3.2, and unzip it, and look inside.
[Acer Iconia A500] dnovak:
Hi,

Thanks for reply.

I found out that motorola Xoom latest stock rom has Croatian language built in.

Would it work to copy ldb file from it or there will be issues since it is for another device ?

Thanks for tutoring but this are my first steps

Regards,

DiNo
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Usually, we don't copy files from a rom other than acer. Not without doing a recovery backup first.:D

It's possible you will be ok. I think at the most, it will force close, or reboot. Or, it may work. I would be interested to know.

Also, you may want to take a look around and see if there are other files that may be linked to language. I was just lucky finding what I found.

I guess it will all depend on if the zoom ldb uses the exact same format as the Acer roms. 50/50 chance.
[Acer Iconia A500] Moscow Desire:
Seems I have found additional info on changing to a different language. Hope you want to learn a little programming ;)

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] franzks:
I am confused right now as to what to actually use when trying to close an app. I read that killing an app for RAM doesn't really help. So does this mean that I should just keep pressing the home button even if it leads to a lot of apps piling in the background? What do you do personally?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Agret:
You can keep pressing back until the app exists, or you can press menu and see if the app has an exit button, or you can just pile apps in the background as you describe it and android will auto kill them when you are running low on ram.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] kevinlekiller:
I set the 'hold back button to force kill' option in cm7.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Agret:
Interesting option, I avoid CM as it is bloated but do you know any other roms with similar function or how to enable it yourself?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] sdotmouse:
Exiting via the back button "kills" an apps. Exiting via home button leaves it running so you can return to it if needed. A taskkiller is pointless as Android will restart a service almost immediately. Stop Maps in Running Services and see it return within 5sec. Lifehacker have some good info on Android taskkillers and why they are fairly pointless.

AFAIK back button should kill the app, there's some cases it doesnt, and home just keeps it on the background.

They may reconsider having ICS on sgs4g.

SAMSUNG

Samsung's Galaxy Nexus already has Ice Cream Sandwich, of course, and most Nexus S phones should have already received an over-the-air update. The status of Android 4.0 for other Samsung smartphones is less clear. Here's what we know, for now:

- Samsung Nexus S phones started getting Ice Cream Sandwich on December 16. If you own a Nexus S, you should be using an Ice Cream Sandwich device at this point.

- The Samsung Galaxy S II will get Android 4.0 in the first quarter of 2012, as will the Galaxy Note.

- The Samsung Galaxy S and Samsung Galaxy Tabs were both on track for Ice Cream Sandwich, until they weren't, until they were again, maybe. Basically, Samsung claimed that they would update the Galaxy S and Galaxy Tab to Android 4.0 and then announced that they would not, due to the limitations of the device's RAM and ROM to run both ICS and a bit of touch-interface software called TouchWiz simultaneously. Now, apparently bowing to consumer pressure, Samsung is re-examining ICS for the Galaxy S and Galaxy Tabs, as reported by MSN Korea.

Huffington Post

The source code was released as well..
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
I don't see the Galaxy S 4g on there. I only see Galaxy S. They're completely different phones. Just give up hope!
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] finch8423:
Every phone company does this- even htc. No one releases more than one, two updates at the most. Hell, Motorola was releasing phones running 1.6 on Sprint when Froyo was released.... can't make it up. Give it about six months and they will kill off the Nexus S, when the Samsung Galaxy Nexus Plus 2 is released (I made that phone up, but you get my point). They did it with the original Nexus, which had, according to the other corner of XDA, more than enough hardware to run an ICS port.

Remember guys, if you want ICS, go ahead and spend $600.00 on a Galaxy II, which will be outdated in 3 months. It's cheap.

That's how you run a business in a capitalist environment. I'm a little surprised Apple keeps rolling out updates for their devices for so long.

yes it is part of the galaxy s line.

Also why the hell would samsung release ICS for an old phone and dump newer phones.

This phone is much faster than the GT-19000. It would only make so much sense.

This is a galaxy s phone.

The specs of samsung galaxy phones say either Galaxy Phone(e.g. galaxy 3), Galaxy S Phone(e.g. Galaxy S 4G) or Galaxy S II Phone(e.g. Gt-19100)

Anyway, if not then we just have to wait till most of our contracts expire.(or later) then we can get Jelly Bean(potential name for Android 5.0)

Cool! Ridiculous that I didn't think of this myself ;)

I will send you the password of the dbz files when I get home. I don't have it here.

But the real problem for HTC and NOKIA are the whitelists. I've been working on this for the past time. And today I made more progress. I developed a new way of debugging native 3rd party dll's/drivers. U can isolate functions and call them from a test app for unit-testing. This makes testing a lot easier. This will help me find exploits much faster. I can even call the whitelist functions of HTC and NOKIA on my Samsung now ;) Working on it right now.

Good find!!

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jaxbot:
Haha, I knew you would say that when you saw this. Most credit of this goes to your work, in fact, which gave me much of the idea.

As for the whitelists, do you know exactly how it's blocking? Is just registry blocked, or all non-APN related settings?
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] voluptuary:
^-- This is why I nominated you guys for those free Nokia Lumias. Keep up the good work!
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
Both brands have very similar mechanisms. They both have a driver dedicated to provisioning. The whitelists are implemented in those drivers. HTC has whitelisted only specific registry keys for APN's and stuff. NOKIA does not have the registry on the whitelist at all.

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jaxbot:
Shame it's a whitelist instead of a blacklist :\

Do you know which CSPs are allowed? I've managed to move files around using provxml on my Samsung, but it seems to allow just about anything.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Marvin_S:
Well done man, exactly what worked also with calling provxml files from the iso storage in DiagProvXML. Just do "../the entire path to iso storage/provxml.ext" this worked also on htc. Although of course your mechanism is different as you have to copy it to the correct folders while we just needed to change the default paths of the drivers to a custom folder.

Well done and nice creative solution. It would be great if you manage to get this working for more devices.

Maybe somebody can somehow find the exact provisioning the Developer Registration Tool makes, so you can use that one as that should be white listed I assume.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] MJCS:
The Registration tool actually uses a socket connection to send a partly modified cookie string to the phone. The phone then goes and checks that against microsoft's servers and goes OK.

[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Fisher_9511:
Can't you try perform this exploit with the "On-Device Diagnostic Tool" offered by Nokia on their Lumia 800 ?

It access to Lumia's hardware so I guess that this app brings more access to the registry.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] spikeymouse:
already been answered on the previous page:
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Briefcase:
Not quite ;-). The provisioning driver handles provisioning files (provxml); Provisioning files support writing to the registry but this has been blocked by the driver itself via the mentioned whitelist. There may be other drivers around that write to the registry as well, only problem is that to be enable to use these drivers we need access to them. The only apps that have access to those drivers are apps with INTEROP permission. Sideloaded apps (on phones without interop unlock) never receive INTEROP permission, even if they request them. Apps in the marketplace are allowed to request the interop permission (of course Microsoft reviews them before publishing). The Network Setup app is an example of an app that has interop permissions (to be able to talk to the provisioning driver), but by abusing this app we got stuck at the whitelist in the driver. The diagnostic app also has interop permissions but in the code it doesn't use those permissions to write to the registry. Once they are on your phone, altering apps (for example by overwriting some libaries the app contains) doesn't work either because all libraries and executables of an app from the marketplace are signed by Microsoft. Once the signature is compomised (by modifing the file) it won't start. Theefore, if an app with interop permission from the marketplace doesn't edit the registry by default we cannot make it do it either. We only could try to exploit it if it does (Network Setup app) but in that case that has been taken care of by Nokia as well by building in a whitelist in the driver. Conclusion: so far no luck.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jaxbot:
To add to the pool of ideas, I did try overwriting the pacman2.edb file to see if we could edit it, since there seems to be a clear difference between homebrew INTEROP SERVICES and Marketplace INTEROP SERVICES (e.g., it does some sort of checking on this, because interop locking will block any interop homebrew, but obviously does not affect Marketplace apps).

My logic was that, by editing this file, we could try and get away with changing permissions around a little, assuming the determining factor is something other than whether the app is signed or not.

Despite the fact this idea probably wouldn't have worked anyway, we can't overwrite the pacman, since it's always in use. Bummer.

Hopefully this will spark some other thoughts, though.
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] ChrisKringel:
Is every application checked for its signature before its started? Because if I remember correctly there is an Autostart folder inside the Windows directory. Maybe we could inject an application there that gets executed once the devices starts...
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jaxbot:
That only works with native applications (which, yes, must be signed, unless we're on a full unlocked ROM), and we can't write to the \Windows\Startup folder anyway, since \Windows\ is blocked :\
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Heathcliff74:
It wouldn't have worked anyway :( Even when it was not in use.

Signatures are not only verified at install-time, but also at load-time. So when you use patched binaries, they will not match the database, if you overwrite it a database that references MP binaries.

Heathcliff74
[Windows Phone 7 Development and Hacking] Jaxbot:
That's what I was starting to think. At first I had hoped there would be a difference between the Marketplace INTEROP flag and the regular one, but now it appears to be a matter of signed vs. unsigned. :\ worth a shot, anyway.

When you see a Directory like appearing on your phone after pressing the "Windowbreak me" rectangular, you have to touch the SUBDIRECTORY CALLED WINDOWBREAK on your screen in order to activatre the writing of the files.
