Currently Apex on AOSP. Went back and forth between it and Nova Prime but prefer Apex for its speed, unread counts without separate app, and themes.

On a Touchwiz ROM definitely Touchwiz launcher. The speed is just too nice and outweighs the drawer being on the right and the all around lack of customizability.

Right now I am using Nova Launcher Prime. I have tried Apex and I like it a lot but I do not like how I can not make the home button open recent apps like I can on Nova. What I mean is on Nova I can make it open it on any home screen and if I press the button again the recent apps screen goes away. Apex however is not quiet as smooth in operating this. Otherwise I really like Apex but Nova wins because of the home button customization.

Nova Prime.

I was using GO Launcher EX for years, since my original Galaxy S. I continued to use it on my S3 but I felt it could be better, and NP happened to be on sale for $0.25 a couple weeks ago so I said "why not?" The only thing I miss is being able to uninstall an app in the drawer by long pressing on it. Nova automatically attempts to put the app on one of your main screens, forcing you to go through the app manager (and scroll through endless system apps) to get to the app, which then requires two more presses to uninstall. So GO requires two presses, while NP requires four plus scrolling to the app to find it in the app manager. You can uninstall from the home screen but that requires putting it on the home screen first.

It has gestures and much faster to go to recent apps with one Finger swipe compared to double tapping the physical home button

Haven't seen many mentions of Zeam launcher. I've been using this launcher for practically my entire android career (since the Samsung Moment if anyone remembers it) and it does everything i need in a launcher in a tiny, super quick package. It has all the standard features we've come to expect like mulitiple home screens...up to 7 i believe, scrollable customizable dock, home screen and app drawer row/column adjustability, bindable swipe gestures, etc. All weighing in at under 1MB so rescource footprint is practically non existant. The only real complaint i have is the lack of a settings import/export feature however Titanium solves that. If you like a small, quick, reliable launcher that has pleanty of features without sacrificing performance give it a go. Oh and by the by.....its free :D.

Hey all,

I'm trying to spoof my MAC address on the Galaxy Ace, though nothing seems to be working. [Details and attempts listed below]

Phone Details:

Samsung Galaxy Ace GT-S5830

OS:

Stock Gingerbread 2.3.5

Rooted

Installed Software:

Superuser

ES File Explorer (with show hidden (. prefix) files turned on & up to root enabled, root R/W)

Busybox (Free)

Android Terminal Emulator

(all with Superuser permissions)

What I've tried:

First I cleared the phone's IP DCHP lease in the router.

In Terminal on the phone whist not connected to a network, but wifi turned on I:

also tried

The first code I quoted gave me no errors and appeared to execute successfully, but iplink show wlan0, the router (once the phone had connected), and several other tools (to see if ANY could see the change) also displayed the phone's default MAC.

(I also tired: ifconfig wlan0 hw link 112233445566, offsetting the existing MAC by only 1, and prefixing commands with busybox - busybox ifconfig wlan0 hw ether 112233445566 -resulted in ifconfig: SIOCSIFHWADDR: Operation not supported)

Looking for /data/misc/wifi/nvram.txt. Can see /data/misc/wifi/nvram.info containing my MAC. Have edited this and tried joining network again, but no MAC change is showing. Have read it's a rather bad idea to restart the phone before changing the MAC in files back, [Why?] so am yet to do a restart to test the file change...

Various apk tools (preceded by clearing DHCP lease for phone's IP & proceeded by checking router & iplink show wlan0) including:

Wireless MAC Changer - Osama Abukmail

Mac Address Ghost - diewland

MAC Spoofer for HD2 - Ian Kim (as the description stated although for a HD2, there was a change it may work for other types [later found out mine doesn't use/have /system/etc/calibration])

(all with super permissions)

Does anyone know of, or have any other ideas that may work?

Is this possible with only Custom ROM's?

Much thanks in advance,

Blue

I've been seeing FH leaks and just received OTA FH13. Didn't update since I don't want to lose root.

I'm curious how is sprint pushing FH13 since I see leak even of coming soon FH28?

So, does this mean after testing different FH builds, sprint figured FH13 is best?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GiantJay:
Fh13 is just means the date it was made. So fh28 would be august 28th a newer build that isn't released yet. Also you could have gotten the update anytime through kies on a computer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
No. Thats just a quick fix build to the public I believe. FH23 is better and I presume FH28 will be better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
Hmmm... a bit confused here lol. So, leaks are available to public via kies?

And, if sprint/Samsung building FH28, why not push FH28...?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
No leaks are available here on the development section. Not every leak is released officially by Samsung and pushed as an OTA. We'll only get FH28 if someone with connections leaks it, or if Samsung decides to make it official they'll release it as well but through kies and pushed through phone. Just remember F=2012 H=August 28=Date. Newer the better, usually. Sorry it's 430am, hope I'm clear. Haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GiantJay:
I meant the ota update of fh13 which is not a leak. Leaks you can only download on sites like xda at your own risk.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tpapa:
You sure FH23 is better than FH13? Sounds like people are having issues with it. Or maybe you meant when/if it's official it will be better.

I had issues with the fh13 leak but the update through kies worked fine. That's why these are leaks they might be getting worked on still.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anti-up:

If you manually copy and manually change its permissions, I guess there won't be any problems.
