Isn't adware defined by the action of displaying ads rather than collecting data - hence the name adware...

or is my logic too... logical?

Regardless, here is Google's official statement, from the "learn more" link in the admob settings: http://www.google.com/ads/preferences/html/mobile-about.html

It says the exact opposite of your assertion - the admob preference is explicitly to decide whether ads are based on your interests, with no option to stop the collection of data. That setting only decides if the ad server has access to the data, which will be collected either way.

Also, it only pertains to apps that display ads within, with no mention of ads in the status bar - yours had to have been caused by something external to google play; it has nothing to do with the admob preferences. Be sure to confirm this when your next popup occurs, okay? Thanks in advance :)

EDIT: Here is a screenshot of the Play store's settings screen:

[The new XDA app doesn't seem to upload images properly... stand by for correction via computer...]

It clearly shows that activating the option, rather than turning ads on or off, will decide whether the ads that will be displayed either way are generic or personalized

Automatic STS-Dev-Team Development Log

Android is all about choices. And here's another choice for AOSP ROM:

"AOKP" (Android Open KANG Project) is a built from source ROM similar to CyanogenMod (but different).

I didn't create AOKP, I only ported it to the Droid 4.

You can visit the AOKP website here:

http://forum.aokp.co/

Their developers include: Roman, Zaphod-Beeblebrox, Whitehawkx, and more.

The future of AOKP is quite bright as new features are popping up all the time.

DON'T LET GOOGLE RESTORE YOUR SETTINGS WHEN INSTALLING THIS ROM COMING FROM GINGERBREAD

Github sources are here:

FOR DEVS: You can check out the local_manifest.xml for getting this ROM up and running here:

https://github.com/STS-Dev-Team/android_local_STS/tree/ics-aokp

Special Note about 4G/3G Data:

Data for this build has been a bit finicky. When you reboot, you will probably need to go to: Settings -> Wireless & networks -> More .. -> Mobile networks

Click on "Network Mode" and goto GSM-only, wait for 5 seconds, and then back to LTE/CDMA. This should help data come up.

THIS IS TEMPORARY AND WILL BE FIXED.

WHAT DOESN'T WORK:

Better Camera function (FFC, Face detect, etc in progress)

HW Video Codecs (in progress)

Bluetooth on but not connected = loss of all audio (in progress)

ENJOY!

Does this have the same data issues as the AOSP ICS ROM?
[Motorola Droid 4] dewhashish:
this is my main concern, i'll quickly switch over to this one
[Motorola Droid 4] garlick2:
Since Hash is using the same code trees for both, I would assume they would be the same.

[Motorola Droid 4] problematic:
I loaded up MIUI-V4-Alpha: (3/20/12) CDMA for the Razr on my Droid 4. (Based on hashcode's work)

It boots but there are a few obvious bugs. First, data seems to be bugged on roaming. The lockscreen resolution seems a bit off. Keyboard light does not work, and keyboard mapping is off. (Shift 2 doesn't to @, etc.) Everything else seems to be working fine, hopefully we'll get a less bugged port soon. If anybody knows how to port this stuff which already works on the D4 builds over, we'd have a working MIUI.
[Motorola Droid 4] helal348:

[Motorola Droid 4] whiteout7942:
Is it possible to just have the keyboard brightness on even if you don't use auto brightness. I know you can adjust the different levels of brightness when using auto but I always keep my phone on a set brightness level and would like to have the brightness on the keyboard.

As of right now, no

Fair enough. I'm sure right now you guys are ironing out bigger issues. Just thought I'd ask.

[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
Just loaded 3-22, and for me data issues still haunt me.
[Motorola Droid 4] Hashcode:
For me data is working in good signal areas with strong 4g. Its a lot more iffy in other areas, and I think that's where the frustration comes in.

Its a work in progress.
[Motorola Droid 4] RastaPasta:
Installed 3/25 nightly. Will continue to test data, but one major problem I am having is that no on screen keyboard pops up in any text field and also no back lighting on the physical keyboard at all....otherwise I love this ROM thanks to the devs!
[Motorola Droid 4] whiteout7942:
If you have multiple keyboards installed try selecting a different keyboard in the settings. If you only have one keyboard installed, go to the market and download a free one like Go keyboard. Then apply that keyboard to see if it shows up or if it gives you the same problem. I'm trying to narrow it down to whether its a problem with stock keyboard or a ROM issue loading keyboards in general.
[Motorola Droid 4] RastaPasta:
i have multiple keyboards...android and swift key x. i tried to switch between them before but no luck
[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
In my area I'm covered in 4g whereever I go, so that's not an issue for me. What happens is just getting it to kick in that first time, once it kicks in its perfect until I reboot. Most of time time I reboot and its gsm, I change it and it magicly goes away after a few seconds where it doesn't have any network selected, then I fight with that for a while and it will get 4g then not work. One more switch or two then it usually kicks in. In short its a pain but at least its consistent.
[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
One thing to note with aosp rom data issues had pretty much went away, but with aokp the issue remains.

Not sure if aokp is caught up to aosp as far as that goes.
[Motorola Droid 4] whiteout7942:
Flashed the latest nightly (3-27) and now i'm having the same issues as RastaPasta with the keyboard not coming up. Spend 10 mins trying to get the keyboard to come up and I gave up.
[Motorola Droid 4] whiteout7942:
Screen orientation issues on 3-30

Flashed 3-30 this morning and I noticed some weird issues. First off, the phone is stuck in landscape mode. I have tried toggling auto-rotate on and off but that did nothing. Then when I go to flip the phone out, the screen goes into portrait mode. So right now its backwards of what its suppose to be. Also the on screen keyboard still does not work. It only works when the phone is flipped out.
[Motorola Droid 4] Hashcode:
Sorry, the 4.0.4 merge had us in a bit of disarray for a while.

I did some functional checks for this yesterday and I think we're in much better shape with the ROM.

It should be working like it was previously. Let me know if you experience differently.

(NOTE: You will need a complete wipe when upgrading to the 4.0.4 version).
[Motorola Droid 4] dewhashish:
I installed the 4.0.4 but still had data issues, I love the ROM though, great work Hash!

LTE/CDMA issues getting better

After flashing 4-28, my 4G LTE has been able to finally work. However every now and then thoughout the day I need to toggle GSM ON then back to 4G. Sometimes I have to reboot. But at least its progress going in the right direction.

FYI the fixes were made my Ricardo Cerqueira.
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
Thanks for the info; do you have any idea what the fix is exactly, or what radio it uses? Have they moved to either the radio from the latest Moto update for the D4 or the ICS leak for the Razr?

[Motorola Droid 4] Montecarlo97z:
whats the difference between this and cm9?
[Motorola Droid 4] rumgool:
Anyone could try and list the differences, but the best way is if you just try both out (or three if you include gummy) and see which one you like best.

They all have their ups and downs, but besides system/UI customization, none of them are more functional than another. Some might say that Gummy and AOKP are closer to vanilla ICS, and CM9 is more streamlined, but tis a matter of opinion. I honestly like all 3.
[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
I feel safe to say data issues are now tolerable! Been running 4-25 since 4-25 :)

I've rebooted once cause data stopped coming from wifi.

And when I reboot I have to switch once. Other than that its perfect.
[Motorola Droid 4] Briteyez83:
I definitely agree with you. I have all 3 ROMS on my SD but I prefer AOKP with the Nova Launcher. I bought the Nova Launcher Prime which gives me access to more of the features that are become avaikable with purchase. I also enjoy how cutomizable it is vs the other two.
[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
I agree
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
I can confirm that data appears stable now. I switched camera.apk with a working one from Gummy, and so far so good!
[Motorola Droid 4] ICUDeadNow:
If by stable you mean having to wipe dalvik cache everytime you want to reboot, then sure.

Data is still horrible on 4/29. It's obviously something in the dalvik cache causing these issues... Surprised it hasn't been worked out yet. Or atleast a dalvik wipe + reboot option already built into the ROM.
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
I am on 4-25 and I have not had any data problem so far. I have had a constant 4G connection since noon yesterday.

[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
What does the cam.apk file do differently from gummi?
[Motorola Droid 4] duffman452001:
FYI i was getting process.acore FCs every 5 seconds with the 5/1 build, so I tried out the 4/30 and it works perfectly. I advise avoiding the 5/1 build
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
It worked? When I first loaded up aokp camera it was broken. No buttons.

Anyway, after 3 wonderful days, my data went off and refused to come back. Oh well. Any ideas folks?
[Motorola Droid 4] kwyrt:
This has been my experience with all the ICS builds. Weird how data will seem fairly stable for a few days and then just stop picking up all together. I've been running the Eclipse ROM now for a few days and data has been awesome, probably because it's GB based. It's not ICS but it's a definite step up from stock.
[Motorola Droid 4] Montecarlo97z:
same here, no ics rom will hold data for very long. eclipse rom is the only one for me that has held data. although the build system version says 215 instead of the updated 219 version we updated to
[Motorola Droid 4] dewhashish:
i have almost no issues with this ROM, i was running CM9 4/7 for a while until i saw this one had data issues cleared up, after a call or rebooting do i have to switch to GSM and back

on a side note, is the latest nightly the milestone 5 build?
[Motorola Droid 4] omniuni:
Eclipse is actually based on a Razr system; it's not AOSP nor is it ICS. I did try the GSM and back thing, and it worked once. Now it just doesn't want to connect. I wish I knew why.
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
Is your system select set to automatic? I changed it to home only and I couldn't connect to data. But on automatic a reboot and gsm/ lte switch works for me.
[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
Still on 4-25 data issues are very small.
[Motorola Droid 4] jy3ng4:
Just installed this ROM (5/04/12 version) for the first time and it is really really cool. Hashcode and the CM9 team are the best.

I only used it briefly but noticed that data was not stable and the capacitive button vibration/haptic feedback was very faint...almost nonexistent. Anyone else notice that with the vibrating?
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Mine is like that too, but I actually prefer it that way :D

As for data, not sure. So far so good... but it has only been a day...

Has anybody had any issues with notification lights? I can't get mine working at all...
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
Nope. Notification light works fine for me. There is a setting in Rom Control. Maybe try looking there. Also hashcode recommended flashing the nightlies after 5/5 so you might wanna try that. But I had no notification issues even on the 4/30 nightly.
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Weird. I actually have the latest nightly flashed, and have checked out that menu. Driving me nuts :D

BTW, has anyone anywhere been able to control LED flash rate? On the OG Droid, I managed to get an install that kept the LED lit (instead of blinking). It actually was a bug, but I liked it so I never updated off of CM7 (whatever version with the bug). I know this is actually an option in ROM Control, but it doesn't seem to work. Well, it didn't seem to work until my notifications disappeared completely. I am wondering whether anybody has had any luck before I wipe everything out again...
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
Is your issue with one specific thing (like texts) or it just generally doesn't work?
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Doesn't seem to be working at all... I'll probably try to do a full wipe this weekend and see if that clears it up (I'd imagine it would). Works perfectly fine on stock.
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
Ya that's probably your best bet at this point. Good luck.
[Motorola Droid 4] bonesjones:
Anyone got a fix for screen auto brightness? Auto doesn't work, when I'm outside I have to uncheck auto because it doesn't auto raise the brightness.

But when auto is enabed is does darken the screen
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
Does anyone else get random soft reboots when sending/receiving text messages? This has been happening to me on all the nightlies I tried starting from 4/30.I think I'm on 5/8. I use the stock messaging app and when I get the soft reboot I don't get a delivery report for the texts I send and Idont receive any texts until I reboot my phone myself. Its pretty weird. Anyone else experience this
[Motorola Droid 4] podspi:
Nope, you might want to try a wipe and reflash... Also keep in mind that you apparently have to be really careful restoring data between gingerbread and ICS, so its often better to just reinstall everything from the market (if you are using titanium backup).

Also, after a wipe and reflash I now have notifications again! Still cant control them except for Colorado, though. Same problem with a clean install of CM9. It has an option to keep the notification illiterate instead of blink (as well as different speeds) and those options either do nothing or break led notification completely. Oh well...
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
I do a full wipe each time. I haven't restored data from gingerbread but I do restore data from my previous ics roms.

Nice!

[Motorola Droid 4] dewhashish:
for some reason when typing on the physical keyboard and i press Sym, it doesnt show all of the symbols like in the stock rom or CM9
[Motorola Droid 4] Grizzy3:
So I realized the random soft-reboots I'm getting aren't only when sending/receiving texts. It just happens randomly. My phone goes to the boot animation in the middle of me doing something. Is no one else experiencing this?
[Motorola Droid 4] azrael293:
There is an issue with Swype that effects the keymap and changes the function of the SYM key. On Eclipse xredjokerx developed a keymap rewrite that changed the SYM key function to the following:

Remapped SYM -> ALT_LEFT

ALT + O = {

ALT + P = }

ALT + K = [

ALT + L = ]

ALT + N = <

ALT + M = >

ALT + / = \

ALT + I = |

ALT + Q = ~

All previous shortcuts for shift still work.

here is a link to the thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1624803&page=10

maybe you can get the information from him to do the same on AOKP or can contact Hashcode or anyone who can get the keymap info to find the difference between the Stock/CM9 and the Eclipse/AOKP files.
[Motorola Droid 4] j.arsenault:
Has anyone noticed that a static wallpaper doesn't scroll? is there a specific option I'm missing? I'm using the 5-04 build

Edit: This only happens with the stock launcher
[Motorola Droid 4] j.arsenault:
I'm also noticing that if I reboot the phone, I have to wipe dalvik cache before data starts working again... I saw this in the latest nightly as well as the 5-04 build.
[Motorola Droid 4] redddog:
So with this new "official" build out, is it feasible that Hash will be able to superfy AOKP?
