[Motorola Photon 4G] Deleted member 3597775:
Can you do this? All the apps on the market list motorola/the photon as not working, and I read somewhere that motorola prevents this

however, jokersax said theres an app used by motorola to do this, for quality testing

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20210626&postcount=21

I've read that GV can do this, but only for incoming calls (looking for incoming AND outgoing)

I know about the legal implications and stuff, I'm just looking for information

EDIT:

so I've done some digging, and some testing, and some headscratching, and it seems call recording is blocked at the kernel level, but I have a hunch moto left the capability to do so in the leaked 2.3.5, but I don't know, and have yet to test it (if anybody cares)
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
Tested and it works on the new version of miui rom by th3 bill. Option right on the screw. For those trying to record Calls.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
Screen
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
screeenshot of calls recording.

Hope this helps credit to http://www.jokersax.com/developer-pages/th3bill/miui-photon/
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Wow! I though Motorola set up the Photon so it would NOT allow recording. When you play back the recording how is the volume and clarity of your voice and the other person's?

Does it also work with Bluetooth?

I definitely want this to work!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] olegfusion:
it creates the files, but there nothing inside, no sound.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Darn, that's what I was afraid of!
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrmellies:
Hmm. Seems you are right. I even tried changing extension to .ogg .mp3 .mp4 .wma and won't play it. Sorry I mislead you. I should have investigated further. It recorded. I saw the file.. I believed it worked. Dummy me didn't play the file. Interesting though when you change the extension to .ogg it plays but its silent. even tried the file as a ringtone.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
I'm sorta sad... I really wanted this to work!
[Motorola Photon 4G] peopleface:
Have you tried Rvoix? It worked in my HTC hero, but haven't tried it on my photon.

Edit: nevermind. Just tried it and the app uninstalled itself. Never seen that before...
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
Rvoix looks like a great app. If only it worked on non-HTC phones...
[Motorola Photon 4G] dragontology:
Motorola basically blocks recording calls. It's a legal issue in some areas and they're overly cautious.
[Motorola Photon 4G] sjamie:
I know. They should get over it!

[HTC Rezound] flyhotstuff:
well i am new here and i think i'm finally ready to go into the android scene. i am selling off my iphone 4's on monday and i will be buying an htc rezound my questions are really:

!:) i've been reading around the forums with lots of people with battery woe's and that somewhat concerns me. because i need to get through and 8 hour work day. my iphone lasts all day with moderate use.

2:) and i am looking at a new htc rezound on ebay in box (please note i am in the caribbean only gsm networks here) and it has a bad esn. now i will not be using it on verizon's network for sure it will only be on a gsm network and i have known people to flash cdma phones to sprint. but seeing as this has global gsm radio can i use this on a gsm network without having to worry about that esn.

3:) how do ya root it :) (i'll look around)
[HTC Rezound] vdChild:
besides the obvious the words New and Bad Esn together? /scratcheshead
[HTC Rezound] flyhotstuff:
Yeah I found it strange myself too unfact the seller has 3 of them I will request details on why the esn is bad. It's not in box either, it's no box with all the plastics still on and no beats headset.
[HTC Rezound] nosympathy:
Stolen...lol...
[HTC Rezound] GreenXSniper:
yeah i'd almost definetly say stolen.
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
Considering it uses a LTE sim card it can't have a "bad ESN", lol. The fact the person willingly states that DEFINITELY stole it. Buy one from someone on the forums, they pop up all the time man.
[HTC Rezound] I Am Marino:
Find another IMO.

Sent from my ADR6425LVW
[HTC Rezound] fenguepay:
If or when you get one you will need to unlock it then root it in the recovery. If you are new to unlocking you can use an unlock tool I made. It's called fenguepays auto unlocked and it works on all windows computers. You just need to make sure you get htcs drivers by installing HTC sync and you have usb debugging turned on in your phones development settings. Good luck
[HTC Rezound] kiint:
its a great phone, but yeah find another, that one is almost certainly stolen
[HTC Rezound] flyhotstuff:
Haha you know it's funny because I was thinking the very same thing. The seller hasn't responded as yet... It's pretty early though. I guess I'll search for another one.

I thought they already came unlocked for gsm?!? No biggie I'll get the hang of this soon enough :)
[HTC Rezound] Po1soNNN:
Try swappa.com they're pretty cheap there and there usually gently used or new
[HTC Rezound] flyhotstuff:
and guys does the rezound have gprs or edge? i am reading it doesn't because we don't have any 3g / 4g networks here
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] aranurea:
EDIT: Fixed the problem. Can some delete the thread?
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
I liked the simple superuser and permissions management of MIUI v4, so thought I'd port it to work on any ICS rom. Note that this zip will replace Superuser/SuperSU so always take a backup first. I'm not responsible if something goes wrong and you haven't.

Questions you shouldn't ask:

Does this work on gingerbread/froyo etc.

Answer: NO, its ICS+ only.

Does this work on MIUI v4?

Answer: Probably, but if your on v4, you already have it so don't waste both of our time trying.

Anything not specifically related to this apk.

Head over to http://www.miuiaustralia.com/?page_id=840 for more details, screenshots, and downloads
[Android Apps and Games] busterdev:
Nice going man, looks good

Any chance you could port the notes app too?
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Its already done on here somewhere, doesn't need porting, its open source ;)
[Android Apps and Games] busterdev:
I got it. Thanks dude
[Android Apps and Games] shadrach47:
sweet looks nice, going to try it out. So is permissions like LBE, will I not need it anyone? Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Yeah, its basically the permissions management part of lbe, with super user control added. Lbe make it for miui. I much prefer the look and simplicity of this one to the full lbe.
[Android Apps and Games] shadrach47:
awesome, it worked for me on a DroidX on ICS. It didnt remove superSU though, is that because it is a data app not system?
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Probably. It only remove super user apks from /system/app

Data ones you can uninstall yourself, and it won't cause any harm if it stays there, it just won't do anything as the su binary will call this app instead.
[Android Apps and Games] shadrach47:
Ok, that's what I thought. I usually put it in system but every new ROM install removed it so I got lazy lol. Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] adoool92:
ey thanks for sharing this!!! It solved my error message when installig an apk on miuiv4 aosp adyscorpius thanks a lot !! :)
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
If it changed ANYTHING at all on a miui v4 rom other than the dark theme, I would be having words with your dev as this is exactly the same as what's already included, they're doing something wrong.
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
Do you think you can port the miui clock app [not widget]?
[Android Apps and Games] Zackcez:
If this the one that gives prompts when an app tries to send a sms etc?
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
In progress already, that's the next part I want portable :)

Yet to see whether it can be done or not, but will do my best.Should be simple enough but never know.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Yep :)
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
Yay! I can find no all-in-one clock app with stopwatch, timer, and world clock
[Android Apps and Games] vua777:
this is what i need, block some game/app send silent SMS

Test now
[Android Apps and Games] ermacwins:
I would really appreciate if you can port the Recorder app, that ui is just too slick
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Another example (as with notes) of an app that's both open source and already available on xda.

I'm not taking requests, someone just got lucky with the clock as I was gonna do it anyway :p
[Android Apps and Games] ermacwins:
I cant code so I cant do anything with the source code. I take it there is no source for the messaging app? Please do that, I know you said no requests but please..... :o
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
The sound recorder is already on xda as an apk

And no. Stuff like mms would take more time that I don't have. And the only miui apps that are open source are notes, compass, recorder and file manager.
[Android Apps and Games] ermacwins:
Ok thanks. I cant find the sound recorder though
[Android Apps and Games] theadb:
Love this :)

Noticed that it still says MIUI throughout the app. Will that be changed to be more generic (ie. Android) instead?

Also maybe you can recycle the assets from MiFileExplorer found here for a more ICS feel: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=26100294&postcount=16
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Yeah will do, when I merge the better English in.

And I've already modified it to fit ics, originally it was white/orange. Nothing else needs changing, there's only 5 pngs in the apk, none of which need to be any more "ics".
[Android Apps and Games] fr4nk1yn:
This is a game changer. Love permission management in v4, ics kinda killed miui's usefullness besides this one feature.

Amazing how much sine apps want. Cox Connect is worst than some "questionable" apps.
[Android Apps and Games] theadb:
It's just the MIUI checkboxes on the permission pop-ups that could be more ICS'd. Everything else looks great.
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
If you want a MIUI apk check here first:

[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Cheers, that's the one I was talking about with all the stuff that doesn't actually need any work done to be ported.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Fair call, forgot those :p

So with this installed Im getting asked for permission for everything twice both from the miui one the other super user is gone, but also, i was trying to flash something that i needed to use terminal emulator and type su for after and it says permission denied everytime?
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
Any updates?
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
I have a question - how does this compare to the PDroid protection framework?
[Android Apps and Games] jake:
Strong freaking work brother! This is a game changer
[Android Apps and Games] Fishmanzero:
This is cool! So lbe can be uninstalled now.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Should be posting update tomorrow with:

Much better english

Remove miui references, use something more generic

Replace check boxes with ics stock ones

Anything else I've forgotten, let me know. That will probably be the last update really as:

1. The app just works, is simple, and doesn't need updating

2. Go to 1

(If anything major is improved in miui I will maybe update it, but I'm perfectly happy with how it is right now so am inclined not to)

For those curious, will be looking at miui deskclock tomorrow, but no eta on when or even if it will be released.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
PDroid

+ Much finer grained control

+ Built directly into framework

- Needs to be patched into framework of rom

- Can cause issues due to the nature of framework patching (this is something I have observed myself, and the bug in question was acknowledged and fixed in pdroid)

MIUI Security

+ Control superuser and the most important permissions easily and with an intuitive UI;

+ No framework patching, just flash the zip

+ It just works, simple as that

+ Includes none of the (IMHO) mostly useless extras of the full lbe security

- ... (personally I don't have any negatives)

They are just my experiences/opinions, I'm sure there's people with different ones.
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
This can still block permissions (like block access to call logs, for example) though, right?

Now to wait for the clock app!
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Of course it blocks permissions :)

OP updated with v2
[Android Apps and Games] nocoast:
is v2 just the same style of port as the first one from a newer release of an MIUI v4 weekly? Or could you possibly provide a changelog?
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
The change log is (and always was) in the OP.
[Android Apps and Games] fr4nk1yn:
I'm having a strange problem and I think it's related to this. Anybody else?

The problem is on my Galaxy Nexus w/ any ROM, I can only connect to a bluetooth media device once.

Next attempt, it will only connect to the device as a phone, no streaming media. Fixed by a reboot.

A little more testing but I think I can call this one. I've tried in on a number of different ROMS and the result is the same. I've connected to my car 6 times today. I need to connect successfully some more than flash tomorrow and try again.
[Android Apps and Games] izzy001:
I keep getting a status 0 error. Any help?
[Android Apps and Games] fr4nk1yn:
Any ideas on my problem? I love the permissions.

I confirmed this is my problem. I reinstalled this afternoon and the problem immediately returned.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Sorry but I have no idea. This has absolutely nothing to do with Bluetooth, and there is no reason why it would affect it in any way.
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
I hate to ask, but any progress on the mIUI clock app?
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Unfortunately no, real life + helping marange nd flash has taken up all my time. One day perhaps, and it'll be announced here when progress is made.
[Android Apps and Games] r3dal3rt:
That makes me sad :(

would really like to see the v4 clock on my Miui 2.3

What if we paid you? :P
[Android Apps and Games] fr4nk1yn:
Going to pay with this again tomorrow. The ideas I have is to:

•Fix permissions immediately after flashing,

•Check if there's any difference in players connecting i.e. Pandora vs n7,

•Allow the app(s) to be fully trusted .

These steps ought to narrow down if its a system permission problem or an app permission problem.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
I don't do this to get paid. If I did, I would've stopped a long time ago. No one donates anywhere near what my time is worth, but it is all very much appreciated. One day perhaps, if I have time, but it won't be based on donations. I do it because I enjoy a challenge.
[Android Apps and Games] sibero80:

Sorry to hear that, but not surprising. As I have a mi-one now, I don't have time to bother with this, but its incredibly easy so if someone else may do it in the future.

@OP

Thank you for this

Anyway you can write up a short tutorial on how to port the Security Guard from weekly MIUI updates?

Thanks again!
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
It was so basic its ridiculous, shouldn't need a guide.

Grab the relevant files (such as what's included in the zip here), patch out dependence on miui framework (there's not much really) and boom, done. It doesn't refer to much at all in framework-miui-res. And i don't have my list of changes so you'll hafta compare by hand.

Hint: search the latest apk for 0x60 and @miui: and you'll find most of what needs changing.
[Android Apps and Games] unfugor:
has anyone ported this to jellybean yet?

howto make this work on new MIUI 2.9.3?
[Android Apps and Games] __McB__:
FWIW, I successfully installed this on my TMOUS SGS3 running skyyrocket's Debloated UVDLI7 rom. After flashing it and rebooting, my phone bootlooped. I just pulled the battery and restarted and all was well. Since it replaced the Superuser app, my apps had to re-request root permissions. Other than that, everything working great.
[Android Apps and Games] clockworkninja:
Hi! I cannot install this. When I try via cwm I get the error "(Status 0) Installation aborted" and when I try to copy paste to /system/{app,lib,xbin} I get the error "Invalid CRC for file system/app/Superuser.apk"

Thanks in advance

Also, using CM10.
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Why? It comes standard in MIUI. This is only useful if running another ROM such as CM9/AOKP etc.

Glad you like it

No idea, only guess would be it doesn't work on JellyBean as it definitely works on ICS.
[Android Apps and Games] kremmit:
When i flash a new rom i always delete the default superuser that comes with it and flash this after flashing the rom.

Always works.

Worked on 3 different JB roms too, so no problem.
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
interesting, it didnt work for me. it did say that root wasnt enabled(like normal on the first install) but then never even stopped any "prompt" permissions.
[Android Apps and Games] vua777:
because new Miui V4 LBE SU can not give root permission to this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.funkyfresh.samba&hl=en

this old SU and superSU can.
[Android Apps and Games] ArtoD2:
This is awesome. Works nicely on latest CM10 port from Sapir for Galaxy S2... Have you tried to also get the firewall working? I liked the feature to only allow WiFi or deny Data altogether for some apps.
[Android Apps and Games] rjcoolhtc:
Hope it will work on ICS
[Android Apps and Games] supergeorg:
LBE is much better than their MIUI one, but this is has better design

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9000 mit Tapatalk 2
[Android Apps and Games] dakunesu:
hehe, miui uses lbe , as for design, they are functionally the same.

I personally prefer miuis menu for lbe to the lbe interface for the old or new ones.
[Android Apps and Games] kremmit:
Still loving this!

But will this ever get updated, new version maybe?
[Android Apps and Games] mrplowdan:
I quite like the ability to block app permissions and found this app page.

I downloaded the latest official miui 3.1.11 for nexus 7 from miui.com and pulled out LBESEC_MIUI.apk from the zip. It installed fine on CM10.1 on my galaxy nexus as a user app and as long as you don't enable manage ROOT permission you can still use superuser/supersu as your super user management app.

I slightly modified the apk so the permissions popup is ICS blue instead of miui orange.

Its working nicely so I thought I'd post it.

I'm sure if someone wanted to use it for superuser access as well they could pull the proper bins from a miui zip
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
I suppose if there's demand ill post my updated one that includes auto start and virus scanner and works on aosp? With only one desktop icon instead of the extra ones for virus scanner and auto start?Those options are listed in the main interface with superuser and permissions options.
[Android Apps and Games] xxxo:
yes would be great,and update script to include SuperSU to delete,i tweaked yours for myself as didn't think you were updating,many thanks
[Android Apps and Games] arnelingus:
works great on google nexus 4 (aokp JB 4.2.1 build 1)

thank you very much
[Android Apps and Games] krackers:
Yes, can you please post it!
[Android Apps and Games] lenny_kano:
Just to follow up, I checked and the virus scanner doesn't actually work on aosp, I was misled by my hybrid bastardised ROM. And the latest apk has all sorts of issues when used as superuser. So if anything I might just upload an update to this version I have with autostart control and superuser defaulting to enabled. And fix the script to remove supersu. Possibly tomorrow.
[Android Apps and Games] mrplowdan:
I'd appreciate a version with only the permissions manager as a user app. I tried messing around with the layouts so the left tab just went strait to the permissions manager but it was a bit over my head.
[Android Apps and Games] xxxo:
many thanks ,i think it has 3 capitals as in SuperSU
