I never said that root in and of itself took out anything, it's the stuff we :D take out once we root. Your not sure what tracking I'm referring to, Look up Carrier IQ :eek:.

I charged this phone turned it on bypassed activation shut off the networks just to play around with it and it was still reporting network traffic, How, Why?

This phone has the ability to get past the switch thats thrown when you shut off your data connections. I did just activate the phone, I had forgot to turn data back on before doing so, but it didn't matter; after phone booted up and was settling in I saw the 3g icon pop up in the status bar, thats what reminded me, [I thought I shut that off] and sure enough it was still off, yet it still sent data, but where to? I'm not set on anything yet, yes I'm trying to get many opinions and I thank you for your input this phones been out for a while now and many things have changed since it was first released, like ICS, and htc unlock of the hboot. Much of the activity about rooting this phone is a year or more old and with the deals and such that are being thrown around now to move the remaning stock off shelves there will be ( I'm sure ) many newcomers to the phone and this forum so an updated collection of thoughts on this I figured would be welcome especially if there was some input from the veterans of this phone. And again thank you :)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Zax_Was_Here:
Our phones dont have carrier IQ...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JRngln:
Are you sure? And I hope your right :D. Still our privacy is being taken away from us more and more each and every day:(
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
verizon htc phones do not have any CIQ at all (at least as of gb)
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JRngln:
I know that that's what they had said Officially :confused: But I OFFICIALLY have my doubts :D. Have you ever checked it out with the app?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
as a matter of fact yes i have, our stock rom 5.xx is clean

the ports may or may not have it (depending if it was cleaned out or not by individual dev) but since its not running on the phone/carrier it was meant to, it wouldnt properly function

honestly i never really cared that much, i think the ciq drama was blown out of proportion
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] JRngln:
I'm glad to hear that.

Blown out of proportion? Not really, Think about it you send someone a text messg and CIQ knew what the text said BEFORE your intended recipient even recieved it,....... before you even sent it!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsuj17:
idk, doesnt really affect me...but the Sprint guys were all up in arms about it...mabye if i had a phone that it was an issue on id care more
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sjpritch25:
Anyways, I flashed a custom ROM and CIQ would be gone anyways. I think nowadays we have to realize that we are going to always be tracked in some way.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] jeremytn86:
Yep, I checked, it appears you did say that, but anyways... things are easier with the s off alpha rev x method but the other way will work too so whatever floats your boat...
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] webdesignz84:
go with s-off

I have a Dinc2 and I have rooted it and put MIUI on it. Its great and i would never go back. As far as voiding warranties goes you can always restore to stock... if you break you can always completey smash it so there is no chance of your insurance company knowing it was rooted. Thats what i plan on doing :-) luckily that hasnt happened yet. Remember to make backups before you flash new roms.

Anyone have the stock Amaze browser modified or a program to change the user agent?

Wanted something for testing connections.

Saw this article on modifying the browser, but I dont have the spare time yet to do this. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1265213

Thanks!

Go to your browser and type about:debug on your address bar and press enter. Then go to browser settings. You'll see the option to change user agents.
[HTC Amaze 4G] IronWolve:
Awesome, perfectly what I needed.
[HTC Amaze 4G] freakboy13:
Or..... Dl skyfire from market and just use the awesome ua button. No need to keep typing that crap over and over.

I'm sorry but htc browser is just complete garbage.

It's 5$ for the full version, well worth it imo.

Dolphin is cool but skyfire imo is just awesomeness.

I hit user agent ONCE did desktop view and I'm gtg, no need to retype.

Oh yeah.....
[HTC Amaze 4G] coupetastic-droid:
I disagree. Stock browser is the best browser. It gives you the full experience of a real(desktop)browser. No other third party browser is as great. Why have a 500 dollar smart phone when you're going to use mobile browser and load up mobile versions of the websites? I've tried other browsers, none give you a real web experience. And with the stock browser, you have the best of all world. Real desktop web browsing, mobile and different UA options.
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
You have that with dolphin and skyfire too... You just change the user agent in the settings. Real desktop browsing

[HTC Amaze 4G] freakboy13:
Really?you sure its not the network?

I have never experienced bad lag with skyfire. Only time I have noticed lag is when signal is bad or weak. Never with WiFi or strong signal....

Maybe its your phone!!!!

:p

How's boat browser? Does it have a nifty UA button as well? I'm not a fan of dolphin, or opera so always like to check out dif browsers.

Fixed!:D
[HTC Amaze 4G] mrmako777:
Boat is awesome and yes has the ua setting built in. For me, its been the fastest and most functional of all the browsers I've tried
[HTC Amaze 4G] glacierguy:
True... I didn't like it's UI either

Boat is a sleeper pick... It's a GREAT browser... Very fast and clean. If it had dolphin-like plug ins, I'd use it

[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aksolanki:
Hi, my girlfriend's Transformer is stuck at 8.6.5.13,

I have tried to update via Settings > About Tablet > System Firmware Update > but the "Check Update" button is greyed out.

I have also tried installing 9.2.1.11 via an external Micro SD card, but the card simply mounts. I have unzipped the .zip I downloaded from the ASUS site, this created another .zip file, WW_epad-user-9.2.1.1.11.zip.

If I unzip that file, I get a folder with the same name. Inside that folder is a file called blob and a folder called META-INF with RSA security certificates and another folder.

I suspect I need to update to an older update first, maybe even a few updates before I can jump to ICS. But the ASUS site only has 9.2.1.11.

I have searched extensively, and read quite a few pages of posts. But no joy.

The tablet is completely stock, not rooted and is the B50 variant. I'm not an ANDROID noob, by any stretch of the imagination. But the tablet is my girlfriends, and I have only ever played with the ZTE Blade and currently my LG O2X, running ICS (Thanks owain).

So from the fear of f*****g up my girlfriend's best gift from me. I just thought I would ask some experienced folks here for help.

I hope someone can help. Kind regards. Anil K Solanki
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gee one:
After you unzip the download, you will have WW_epad-user-9.2.1.1.11.zip in a folder ASUS/Update/ or something like that. I think you can try 2 things 1) Try copying the whole ASUS folder and all the contents to the root of your sdcard and then insert it onto the TF. It should find it and ask you if you want to flash or 2) rename the second zip to EP101_SDUPDATE.zip and put it on the root of your sdcard then reboot into recovery. This one might be tricky with windows because I think it is case sensitive or it might try to add a .zip to your .zip.zip. Thanks for nothing windows... Good luck with windows 8.

I think you'll need a stock recovery, but hopefully one of those methods will work so that you don't need to get a new girlfriend. ;)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grinnerD:

ICE Cream Sandwich baby! Option 2 worked. I have never booted the Transformer into Recovery before, so I got to see a great animation of some gears spinning inside an ANDROID robot. Cool.

I have been asking myself, "why the f**k are you bothering with this update?". Susy my girlfriend doesn't care, as long as the tablet continues working. But after 5 mins, I can tell it is a lot faster. Worth staying up until 1.30 am for.

Many thanks. Anil

Hi!

I flashed the v20n this afternoon and it works fine but the vpnc client is no longer working. It says there is no tun.ko. So i learned that i have to flash my kernel...

No idea how to do that and how to get the right one...

Pls help :) !!!
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
I dont know if the tun.ko is enough, or if you really need a whole new kernel. If you need another kernel, you can go to Huexxx' Zeus thread in dev section and take one of his diana kernels, cause those have got VPN enabled and tun.ko is in his ROMs, too. But I am going to make a flashable zip for you and then you can test and see if it is enough ;)

---------- Post added at 12:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

Here is my flashable .zip with tun.ko in it, from Zeus ROM, so credits to Huexxx ;)

http://www.mediafire.com/?vtrb50zxqpmhamt
[LG Optimus Black] Golga:
I flashed the zip file, but unfortunatly it´s not working, vpnc still says no tun.ko. I found a support site and they say there must be a tun.ko in system - lib - modules. right now its in system - etc -modules.

Would you be so nice and modify that zip file for me...

Thx..
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Here you go, hope you get it working. And if not, simply flash a custom kernel of Huexxx ;)
[LG Optimus Black] Golga:
So. Now i flashed Kernel_4.4.3_eabi by Huexxx and it works!!!

Thx for the help!!!
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Did you flash my tun.ko as well, or was the kernel already enough?
[LG Optimus Black] Golga:
i flashed only the kernel. it´s a bit unstable at the moment. it crashed twice today. have to do it once again all over again. Any recommendations which kernel i can try instead of huexxx´s with my rooted v20n?
[LG Optimus Black] N00BY0815:
Try one of these: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1536264

All stock or diana kernels ;)
[LG Optimus Black] Golga:
Hm, the only one working with vpnc is the Kernel_4.4.3_eabi. So i give it another try and set up my system again.. ;)

Update: the system is too unstable :( . So if anyone has another tun.ko or a kernel which fits into the rooted v20n i would be the happiest ob user ever ;)

Ok, I had the same problem, but I found solution - you should compile tun.ko by yourself. I've done it yesterday - the result was tun.ko working on rooted v20n (kernel version: 2.6.35.7+). Download and try tun.ko from attachment :)

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninjames:
Eventually, I'm going to get a Galaxy Nexus or the next latest and greatest - a few months down the line. Right now I've got Cricket and a Huawei Ascend II. The problem? The thing is so slow when it comes to games. Hanging with Friends, of all things, slows down and I have to close it. It's got a 600 mhz processor in it.

So I was thinking about switching to T-Mobile prepaid but didn't want to throw a ton of money at a phone right now. 4G (or rather, HSPA+ I guess) is a must because I want some decent speeds when I can. More than anything, I don't want games to be so damn slow.

I'm not gonna game a lot. Just Hanging with Friends and things like that, and I need a faster connection than Cricket's terrible 3G. Is the 1 ghz processor in the Samsung Exhibit II suitable for my needs? If not, is there anything else that I could use T-Mobile prepaid that won't be much more than $200? I need HSPA+ at the very least.

EDIT: And if not, are there any dual-core phones that are "4G (hspa+)" that will work on T-Mobiles prepaid without getting much higher than $200-$250?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] surge919:
In my previous life with my TouchPro2, I used the AOSP roms and they worked well. With my Galaxy S II / D710, I've only used the Sprint based ROMs.. including the latest FC07.

I haven't found any posts comparing the AOKP ROM (which, unless I'm mistaken is based off of AOSP) to these Sprint ROMs..

Are there any major differences or anything that the AOKP ROMs will not do?

I'd be curious to hear opinions from people who have tried both and why they ended up with one over the other.

thx
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Just to clarify, they're not "Sprint ROM's", they're called "Touchwiz ROM's". The Touchwiz UI is added on top of Android by Samsung then Sprint adds some apps and there you have it. Now I shall let someone who has experience with AOKP answer better for you since I do not have any experience with AOKP yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
To be quite honest, there's nothing that one can do that the other probably cant. AOKP and AOSP tend to have more things built into the ROM itself like overclocking, etc.

But in the end, no, there's nothing I can think of that one can do that the other can't. There may be something out there, but I've not come across it yet. I've used both, and I prefer somethings about each.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
There are some things like cm7 you could use Wii mote with the Bluetooth stack and could not on touch wuz....aokp is cm 9 on steroids..... Lots more customizable
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kmull4:
I haven't tried an AOKP rom but I'm assuming it's very similar to an AOSP rom. I personally think an AOSP rom as a lot less bloat, and right out of the box it's very customizable, but I switched back to a touchwiz rom because I think the samsung camera app is one of the best camera apps out there, plus I think touchwiz runs a lot better on our phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin_Q:
Aside from a few "bugs" here and there with the FCxx roms that they are basing the AOKP roms off of, there are only a few faults. One I keep on running into is the Netflix problem. Hell, aside from getting sick of trolling this place for over a year combined with my Streak 7 and my E4GT, I had to try and get in on the action with FC and FB "leaks", CM9, AOKP, and other 2.3 based rom fun.

But seriously, the only problem I have keeping me from making AOKP a daily driver is the Netflix problems. I need my netflix for work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
aokp is being ported right now but it is just like cm9 it's built from aosp source code ... And not being based off any of the fc or fb leaks .... They are using kernels from them with changes because there is no kernel source to build a aosp kernel with right now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin_Q:
And I learn something new every day.

As a side note: I like AOKP because of pink unicorns.
