[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] grayn0de:
zAnti is a security researcher's tool that can do some minor pentesting actions (network discovery, port scans, exploit vuln checks). Think of it like a baby Nessus. It does not really do anything on it's own to secure the Android OS. As far as securing you device, the answer is fairly simple and is the same with anything:

1) Authentication: Secure the lockscreen with at least a PIN or pattern (I recommend a password). Face Unlock is a joke and the basic lockscreen is by no means secure...

2) Install an anti-virus app. I personally use BitDefender, because it has a full suite of options, including GPS tracking and remote wipe.

3) Optionally, use a firewall or manually configure iptables, if you know how.

4) Don't install anything that you are not sure what it does or have any questions as to it's safety.

5) Be aware of exactly what is on your device... all software, scripts, etc.

6) Physical Access == Pwned. If a malicious party has physical access to your device, all bets are off.

As far as security goes, common sense goes a long way.

I just use Avast! both on my laptop and on my phone, it works great!

There's a list of text commands you can send your phone, it's pretty cool! Also with root users there's more options for security.

As I cant seem to search, doesnt anyone know of a way of making the screen stay on when charging. This was a developer option with the HTC sensation but cannot find it on the S3.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nandoz_211:
hey guys,

i was wondering what was the easiest way to root and install clockworkmod recovery on my phone?

i have realized that you have probably seen this question many times before and i apologize for that. i have tried searching for this and although i have found many results i find myself confused about which one is best and easiest to do.

all i am asking is if anyone could possibly post a link to and easy to follow guide to accomplish this

sorry and thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] !n0x:
The easiest is to flash the root package ( should end in .tar) into the PDA section via Odin with your phone in Download Mode
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nandoz_211:
do you think you could post the link with the method and download file?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Do a search for cf root and select the one for your current firmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nandoz_211:
okay so ive had a look the the cf-root method that you have suggested, it looks pretty straight forward the only thing is im not sure which file to download.

my build number is FROYO.DTJP5

if someone would kindly write down the file name of what i need that would be greatly appreciated
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drakester20:
U should get a better firmware like jw4...

And cf root for it is easily available...

if my post helped, don't mind hitting thanks ;-)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
As, above, upgrade to gingerbread first
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nandoz_211:
okay so now i have GINGERBREAD.XWJW6

what do i download i tried jw4 but my phone isnt recognized in odin. im not sure if they are related problems
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] drakester20:
jw6 is fine too..

Now find the Cf root..

And flash it via Odin by putting the file in PDA..

If my post helped, don't mind hitting thanks :cool:;)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Sounds like you need to reinstall the Samsung drivers..... but if it is recognized with the new room then do what the guy above said
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nandoz_211:
okay so it recognizes my phone, and im using jw4 because there is no jw6, well as far as i can find but after pressing start it fails

i have no idea why

i dont know if this is related or not but when i extract the file i got from the cf-root thread it is not one that i can use in odin so i use the file i downloaded and it is still a tar file
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Just put the.tar in pda and flash
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nandoz_211:
it fails, also im using odin 1.7, im not sure if that makes a difference either

but the s2 may lose many devs due to moving to s3 right soo i'm a little afraid of also buying an s2 maybe it'll lose support from devs in a span of a year :)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidnerd2:
Umm..well I don't think so it will ever lose support 'because it's an evergreen phone..

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] atyey:
HI my friends having a galaxy y and still using others or stock boot animation.:crying:

Now this guide would help you in making your own custom boot animation.:cyclops:

what you need is:

A computer

GIMP

Boot animation creator

Some basic computer skills.

What you need to do is:

Download GIMP from here

Download Boot animation creator from here (credits go to despotovski01)

Download necessary files from below and extract the zip to get the two files (samsungani and bootanimation)

Procedure:

Firstly, make a folder and name it bootanimation. Open that folder and create two folders inside it and name them part1 and part0. Part0 would contain frames that would not repeat in loops. Part1 would contain frames that will loop.

Now open GIMP and select the sheet size to 240x320 pixels.

Lets start with animation frames:

They should be similar looking pictures that change little by little so that it really looks like animation.

Start with black background color and then save it by going to file>save as and then save it as a .png image by selecting extension option in gimp. like this

now edit that frame little bit like i have done below

Make about 100-150 such drawings(actually frames)

Now rename all of these one by one like- 1,11,21,31,41,51......

You should make about 200 - 250 such frames if you want a nice boot animation.

And then paste all of these in part0 folder not in part1.

Paste frames in part1 which you want to repeat...

Now open Boot animation creator.

It will prompt you to choose a folder. choose bootanimation folder containing part1 and part0.

Now put in some extra setting options etc. This program would make a zip for you.

Put that zip in system/media using root explorer.

And put the other two files "samsungani" and "bootanimation" in system/bin using root explorer.

Now reboot to test if it works or not.:good::cool:

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] dheeraj (dhlalit11):

minimum 100 will not be enough, bootanimation will only be played for 3 seconds, i think minimum should be 250 it wipl be played for 8 seconds with the default setting

Is the sgs3 gorilla glass scratch and shock proof? and do i need a screen protector or is it just safe withot one??:confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NiceCarpet:
It depends on what's scratching it. You'll find that keys will have a hard time scratching the screen yet things like sand don't. I would definitely recommend a screen protector. If you do get one, get a GOOD quality screen protector. The cheap ones can degrade the colours a little and often have this odd "just washed" look to them. They often don't feel very good to touch, either.

The phone is most definitely not shock proof. This glass even seems to be easiler to crack than the glass on the S2.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dporem:
Can you tell us good ones?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] itao818:
This is a good one but it's expensive.

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Vikuiti-...ssories_RL&hash=item2a1ee74b28#ht_1204wt_1098

So far I haven't needed one. I put my phone in my pocket with coins and throw it in my back pack with pens and it still seems like new.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BobFL:
Neither nor :)

It is scratch and shock resistant not proof. The Gorilla glass is very tough for everyday use. Your keys and such cannot do any damage. It is not, however, designed to withstand drops on concrete from 5+ feet. I personally never used any kind of protective cover for the screen. I just cannot stand anything between my finger and that beautiful glass :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rohan999:
hmm i guess the galaxy s3 is a bit more dangerous to drops than the galaxy s2..

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7e9ebi41Wc
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerems:
Scratches

I've had the S3 since it's release in Thailand...I can suggest getting a screen protector should be the first thing you buy....I have many many scratches already...a couple right across the screen.

I have not done anything that I have not done with previous phones (Galaxy Nexus for 1 year, Desire HD etc) and they have almost perfect screens! I'm quite disappointed in this phone for scratch resistance...The plastic on the rest of the phone is spotless haha but the "Gorilla glass" is not...

I have dropped the phone once from about 4 feet up onto a tile floor and nothing at all happened so at least you might be able to drop it...but be careful what you let touch the screen.

Jerems
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] longlivelemons:
I don't have the phone yet, but I have watched a couple of "drop tests". The glass itself is stronger technically, but since it's so thin, one wrong drop and the whole thing cracks. That being said, don't try to see how much it can take.

I would recommend putting a case on it and putting on a screen protector. If I paid that much for the device, which I did but I'm waiting for shipping info :rolleyes:, I would want it as safe as possible..without it being too bulky because it's not like I'm doing construction. ;)

I hear the invisible shield is good, but others would tell you otherwise. It's a matter of preference unless you buy the really cheap screen protectors. Don't do that. Make a good, long lasting investment when it comes to protecting one of the most precious part of the phone. :)

Today, my Otterbox case should be coming in the mail and those cases come with screen protectors for the S3 (or whatever device anyone buys), so it's two in one! Besides, Otterbox cases are great!

Hi

I don't know how to explain it but back on GB there were some shortcuts like touching the upper screen and moving left or right to change brightness but this seems to be gone on ICS?!

Are there any other things like this that have changed??
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Andrew0811:
yeah it is gone on ICS

edit:

there is other things like display all animation menu, it is no longer there.

hidden gb pictures also replaced by uglier ics picture.

the easy copy paste feature also replaced by a strange hard to guess one

edit2:

This is more,

ICS is using more processor power,

ICS is using more ram,

ICS is using hardware acceleration,

ICS is slower in data read and update because of new sql file storage.

(taken from sony mobile developer forum)
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] galaxynotes:
what was display all animation?:D

and hidden gb pictures??

but ICS is very smooooth and even though ram is normally 500-600 mb but there's no lag.

But the Brightness shortcut has to be there somewhere:confused:

And I somehow managed to take a screen shot without sweeping my hand across the screen?!Idk how I did it lol

All this hype about JB is a lie, and topics like this should be deleted. No official statement from Samsung, and these tiny bloggers wants to gain users and that's why posting lies or fake news.

I suggest not to believe in such news, and wait for official statement from Samsung which should come up once the source code of JB gets released i.e. July 15.

you cant persuade customers to get an android if they drop the s2 support.the s2 was one of most advertised phones in 2011
[Galaxy S II General] ephraim:

Link to youmobile: http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entr...y-Bean-4-1-Update-due-to-Hardware-limitations

Youmobile claimed that we won't get Jelly Bean but they didn't even gave the source to this news. They just refer to it as their "sources". They even said we won't get 4.0.4 (link: http://www.youmobile.org/blogs/entr...-4-0-4-Update-Only-Minor-FW-update-in-Q4-2012 )

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StormMcCloud:
Personally I love my EVO LTE. Honestly since you seem to be from Huston I would definitely drop Verizon and pick up this phone with Sprit.

A.) The rates are cheaper and you get TRUE unlimited data.

B.) Huston is one of the first markets that will be getting LTE on the 15th of this month so it should be running great by August.

C.) This phone is just so sexy it had to get its own letter just for that.

I had my OG EVO for 2 years and loved it. Now that I have the LTEVO I will never look back, I love this phone.

As a fellow Houstonian, get Sprint's EVO LTE. In about a little over a week LTE will be officially switched on. The women (or me, if you're into that sort of thing) who will fall for you will be in the thousands.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rippley05:
Yea I'd say switch as well. One of the early ones with LTE. I'm in Roanoke Virginia. I never came close to seeing wimax and highly highly doubt I'll see lte during this phones life.

Verizon is money hungry and petty. I'd say switch in a heartbeat and try sprints lte
