If anyone else knows of any please reply with what those are. Hopefully we can get a good list going for those of you out there that are as OCD as me about widgets matching.

[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dontknowme:
Hi guys,

I've been doing lots of searching but I still don't have a clear idea bout Android security. Many of the threads I found are too old and may not be valid anymore. I have a Mini Pro - SK17i and wish to:

1) remove Sony bloatware. Is it a good way to use DoomLoRD's root method and use SystemApp remover? Or just remove the offending .apk's manually? Or Titanium? :confused:

2) enable GPS without sending the 'anonymous usage statistics'. I find this incredibly offending. Also, what other statistics collection is there on this phone? There's some option in Sony settings. How to completely remove (not just disable) this?

3) encrypt the data, including on SD card, with a password. What's the best+safest way to do this?

4) the phone to lock itself with a password (which would also engage the encryption) if it's not in range of my Wi-Fi. Is it doable?

5) not grand every application every permission it requests on install. There are some apps on the market, like Permissons Denied and some firewalls. Do they work on XMP? Are they safe?

Thanks a lot in advance!
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] BlackArtsInc:
1.Titanium Backup is for me the easiest method.

2.I m sure it can be done in some custom ROMs.

I m currently on stock ICS so I m not sure.

3.http://lifehacker.com/5802279/is-the-data-on-my-androids-memory-card-safe-if-its-lost-or-stolen

4.I dont think so.The lock can only be time related (15",30" etc).

5.Google is your friend if you re not sure.

N.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] dontknowme:
Thanks.

Yeah that's kinda what I thought and it's pretty crap. What I want/need is to encrypt for example my email (K9 + GMail) and other stuff. Basically everything.

I'd much rather have something like in this thread. I've found other TrueCrypt-style mods/apps but they all seem to be either complicated or have their own problems. Why did Android devs pick the Linux kernel if they can't take advantage even of such simple (yet very important) things? :(

I think I'll try LUKS Manager when I get around to it.

I try not to be too anal, but the brown screen, particularly when in Lock screen with a black wallpaper, and when in some apps, like Astro, is getting to me

I am in my 14 day period, and my friend Macky, who is a pro like a lot of you,said, no that is not normal. Take it back

Do you agree with him on the screenshot attached

Thank You

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
You do know that when you take a screenshot to show us faulty hardware it actually looks fine for us because our hardware isn't faulty.

You need to take a pic of your screen.

Although what's up with the 'smudging' in the bottom right hand corner of the screenshot?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eric0668:
I am not sure what you mean. whether u are looking at it o n your phone or puter, the quality of the picture, in this case, sound etc....is only as good as the source. so that confuses me.

moving on, yes that is what i mean the corner and the whole right side The lock screen And in Astro
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nodstuff:
What I mean is that if your screen is **** I can't see it if you post a screenshot.

I don't know what the problem with the smudging is, if I were you I'd exchange it .

If you turn off the ripple effect in the lock screen settings it should fix that. At least for the lock screen.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eric0668:
.......

Thanks nod and dls

I did turn off the lock screen. And I can't see it. Bit only to the degree that that screen is not there. If I could see that screen with no lock then I would know

But attached is another screenshot (no other phone or camera. I am sorry)

Of Astro and the right side still behaves the same way
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
It seems to be the astro skin and not your phone...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Skyburn:
Looking at the image linked in your post, I'm with Mopral on this one - seems like a skin/theme issue. Its using the Fade from left to right effect (similar to that on Windows XP).
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dls5375:
I didn't mean to turn off the lock screen, just the ripple effect. When ripple effect is on it distorts the screen especially on dark wallpaper.

t-mobile sgs3 stock rom/rooted
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eric0668:
Now we are getting somewhere. I appreciate all of your patience

So I found the ripple effect, turned it off. And waaa laa.

Maybe about 98% and there may be hardware or software differences as to why screens may ne different color in different areas

But the last problem.

Astro. It still is like that. I dont think It is skin. It is on the right side even more obvious but mainly when transferring files

Any continued help or flat out declaring it is definitely not a problem is appreciated. I know a few of you have posted a few times and given a lot of your time

But I would like the reassurance it one of the pros on xda

Dont get me wrong I dont want to exchange it. But dont want any flaws

Eric
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mopral:
Just install astro on my phone:

-open astro: no issue

-try to transfer some files: black/white gradiant on the transfer pop-up (same as on your screen shot)

So, for me, it is just how stock astro is skinned...

The last few times I have rebooted my phone, the second the phone starts up, it sends texts out to random (seems random to me at least) people. Funny thing is that these are copies of old texts from at least a week ago which I have sent successfully already. Also, I don't see a copy of this newly sent text in my message inbox, but the other users (both Android and Iphone users) see it.

Anybody have this problem and know why it happens?

DEODEX--->> Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file and put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace file (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex services.jar so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) and to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything.

ODEX-->> In Android file system, applications come in packages with the extension .apk. These application packages, or APKs contain certain .odex files whose supposed function is to save space. These ‘odex’ files are actually collections of parts of an application that are optimized before booting. Doing so speeds up the boot process, as it preloads part of an application. On the other hand, it also makes hacking those applications difficult because a part of the coding has already been extracted to another location before execution.

The "THANKS" button is there for a reason. So HIT it.​

Thanks so much, been waiting for this all day....downloading now.

Download went great, super fast...battery charging (I never install a Rom with less than 70% battery)

1.Wiped Cache, dalvik, formated/wipe, mounted and wiped system,cache,data and installed this Rom

2.It took just about 3 minutes from the moment I hit Reboot in CWM and the ATT Ready2go appeared

3.Boot animation for this Rom...pic below...

4.Uninstalled Nova Launcher

4.No sound issues

5.GPS lock in seconds.. indoors Used in a real world situation today and worked flawlessly and got me to my location 30 miles away with no issues.

6.No root issues

7.Super smooth scrolling, tested all the above before setting up email and TiBu

8.Wifi works great and connects to my Wireless N router perfectly, updating apps that came pre-installed

8.And YES this comes with S-note, S-memo, Mini Diary...

9.No issues after setting up and TiBu, after that I wiped Cached, Dalvik, and fixed permissions, runs really good still all stock but will try mods after a full battery cycle of use. I do this so I can gauge performance and wait for any issues if there is going to be any.

10.Tried phMOD but my use was always for the spen stuff not the launcher (use apex pro) and can care less what boot animation I have, I installed and all seemed to work just fine for those who want to use it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1672556

I'm not sure if FoxFi works, but there is a modified Wifi-Tether that works.

If not, it's somewhere around these forums.

Does FoxFi have any advantage over WiFi Tether or vice versa? I know one is rooted vs non-rooted but is that the only difference? I assume there has to be advantages with rooted tether.

[HTC Amaze 4G] IronSheik:
Google apps have always been great, and with ICS, they have become even better. However, they usually tend to feature light, predominantly white backgrounds. While that may be fine for many and easier on the eyes for most, some prefer apps in black. Let’s face it: Who doesn’t like black? If you are a Google Voice user, you can now have your favorite calling, texting, and voicemail app in a predominantly black theme courtesy of XDA Senior Member MattJ951.

Regardless of whether it is for mere aesthetics or to economize on your battery for those extra hours of playing Temple Run, you can grab the black version of Google Voice by heading over to the application thread. Once downloaded, just install the APK using any file manager and enjoy Google Voice in black. Note that you must be using Ice Cream Sandwich or later in order to use it.

I think battery lasts longer with whites on the amaze, but I may be wrong. Either way... black does look nicer :D

These ghost touches happen quite often and render the device unusable. They last for several minutes and don't seem to have any apparent trigger. I've tried searching for people with a similar problem have been unsuccessful maybe due to lack of a way to describe what's happening.

I managed to grab a video on my girlfriends One X in the dead of night to better illustrate the problem. The phantom touches are always in the same location on the Y Axis but vary on the X Axis.

Any information or solution would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Tom. :)
