[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bala_gamer:
it may take sometime to reach india.. if you are using black mobiles so far try giving it a break this time ;) i did the very same and now im never going to a black mobile again ;) black has been my favorite color for a mobile so far. but this white s3 totally changed my mind.

thanks but i actually tried blue

the black one looks more sexy then blue one

plus you dont know maybe samsung will add more STORAGE maybe 64GB galaxy S3 or more core 1.5 GHz or more 2GB ram like the US version of Galaxy S3
[General Questions and Answers] RUSSIAN787:
Which processor is better? Samsung Exynos 4 Quad ARM Mali-400 MP4 OR Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 adreno 225?Much better?
[General Questions and Answers] TitanTyrion:
Better for what? Performance, energy saving, games on mobile phone? Quad-Core vs Dual-Core?

I'd prefer Quad-Core, but have never find a good test or benchmark for it.

Best regards

TT
[General Questions and Answers] densetsu86:
Is your question in regards to the sgs3? The Mali has a better gpu but processing power they are about equal with all the bench marks. Quad core is nice for aaving battery power (more cores work less as hard as a dual or single core so it it uses less battery) but I think its a a9 architecture but the s4 is a a15 architecture which is much more optimized then a a9 so its a little bit better for battery.

And the s4 allows for 4g lte where as Mali does not.

And the s4 pro is coming out soon and the lg optimus g will have that which will probably destroy both of them out of the water.

S4 pro is a a15 quad core with adreno 320 gpu and will be the first quad to support 4g lte.

The optimus g has all the same specs as sgs3 expect it has the better cpu/gpu. Ram, screen size, resolution as well as internal memory are all the same and I think its SD card slot allows for a 64gb card as well. If it comes out for Verizon then I will be torn between that and the sgs3. Depends on dev support if It comes out on Verizon.

But for the Mali its one up is it gpu. S4 one up is 4g lte. Every thing else is marginal and as an end user you will not see the difference.
[General Questions and Answers] RUSSIAN787:
Yes I to sgs3. In terms of what the processor is better? in games for example? In general, whether with MSM8960 Snapdragon S4 go to Exynos?
[General Questions and Answers] FEXTEZI:
Hi dude! both processors are good! And dont forget about A6(Iphone5). Sry for iphone 5 but that processor is ammazing!
[General Questions and Answers] gagdude:
The exynos is better for hardcore 3d gaming, but otherwise you won't notice the difference in day to day and casual gaming.
[General Questions and Answers] densetsu86:
Doesn't matter because since its an iPhone its scaled back to "improve stability" so you will never get its full potential just like iphone 4s is.
[General Questions and Answers] RUSSIAN787:
qualcomm did not much inferior to Exynos?
[General Questions and Answers] Jitunarang:
In most of the reviews of US and international S3, Exynos scored more than snapdragon. But I believe, normal user will not feel much difference.
[General Questions and Answers] LikeMe22:
I had one with Exynos in hand. Pretty good.
[General Questions and Answers] morskipas:

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jman0:
Your zip didn't work on my A789, which is using the apkhot based rom available on forum.china-iphone.ru. After extracting the apk files, copying to /system/app and manually setting permissions, it's working like a charm.

Thanks, I really missed it. On the most recent cooked roms, I miss many things available on the Lenovo official ones, like the fm transmitter, or the butterfly-like widget on the default home screen. Some cookers tend to leave out any non standard apps without even taking some time to know what they do. Not all Chinese apps are rubbish or impossible to understand, and Lenovo is a serious company.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Ok, here you have the FM radio and transmitter of the A789, but it probably does not work, as it is Odex'ed.

And I uploaded seperate installers for MT6575 and MT6577

Also, on your APKHOT, please confirm it actually blocks permissions and blacklists SMS. I am not sure how much the APKHOT deviates from the Lenovo Framework, so merely being able to install and configure may be too soon to tell.

PS: why not try my factory-cleaned A789 ROM? It comes with all those apps by default, and I now have 3 positive feedback.

Come to think of it, why did I take this security app from A750, when A789 is newer....

Edit: Because they are both the same version. In fact the LeSec has not changed since Dec 2010, according to the internal dex binary.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jman0:
I have tested call blocking and it works, but it isn't so important, since call blocking is a built in feature of the Mediatek framework. You can block calls from any contact you have on your Google account just out of the box, and it works great. I've tested older phones which used older Mediatek chipsets and that feature has been part of the Mediatek framework since MT6573.

The FM transmitter won't work that way, since it is odexed. But it doesn't work deodexed, either. I've just got a deodexed version of the app, thanks to a friend from another forum, and it doesn't work very well. It works, but I had to stick the phone to the antenna on my radio in order to hear something. People I've talked to say that the transmitter works great on the stock Lenovo roms, so maybe it's just some incompatibility with the apkhot roms.

The only reason I'm not using your rom (which I have downloaded) is that I wanted to setup the phone in Spanish, and the rom I'm currently using is the only one I've found which contains that language. Just a quick question: is there any noticable performance increase on the s227 based roms? If so, I don't care using the phone in English, since I just want the most feature rich rom.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jman0:
Thinking it twice, I've remembered another reason. One of the things I like most about the apkhot rom I'm using is that the external sdcard is mounted on /sdcard and not /mnt/sdcard2, which avoids problems with many apps. I tried one of the newest apkhot roms, based on s227, and none of the tricks to exchange /sdcard and /mnt/sdcard2 worked with it.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
I'll reply to that in the A789 thread, as we seem to deviate from the security app.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leFloyd:
I remember there was an update of that app on my A750 with your ROM. Now with apkhot I installed that package posted above and I have the older / original version. But there is no update offered...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
That was probably on the S148 Gingerbread ROM. That one has an older version. I know, because I messed up trying to install it, as I had that older GB version and the new ICS one both in my Titanium backup. Also, the Dec 2010 date is probably false, I just got OTA ROW_S114, and it too had all files timestamed to Dec 2010. But I am certain the LeSec from S306 and S227 are the same, the binary compared identical. Official version is V3.5.1.3.5.2.0041 and the update button tells me there is no newer.

Every so often it does update the virus/blacklist signatures, but that is not the app itself. Current virus signature 2012.09.14 Current harasment (blacklist) 2012.07.11

But if you find a newer one, please do let me know.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] jman0:
I've been trying LeSec further and it works, but I found a problem I wasn't able to fix, so, until I found a solution, I've freezed it with Titanium Backup. The problem is that I'm using Go SMS Pro, instead of the default messaging app, since I need to write SMS in Spanish and the default app doesn't support Spanish characters like accents, etc. Go SMS Pro works, but every time I send an SMS, LeSec thinks an unauthorized app is trying to send an SMS in the background, and shows a popup to let you decide whether to allow it or not. I haven't found a way to disable that, and it's a bit annoying having to click two buttons everytime I want to send a message.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Its probably a silly question, but you did go into LeSec->ChargeShield-SMS and ensure that your app was allowed to send SMS in background?

Probably for reasons of 'likely form of attack' the SMS apps are (unlike other permissions) by default in a 'Warning' setting, but if the warning does not come to the foreground on your phone, it may simply not work.

Also, rather than freezing LeSec completely, you could go into ChargeShield, and simply turn of the ChargeShield.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leFloyd:
No, I used the S148 just some days and updated to your S306 V1.2 and simply stayed there, because it works very well. After some time it offered me an update and the user interface changed a bit with that update. The way how you set privacy on app level and so on. The update button itsself never worked for me either.

Sadly, backup never worked on that rom. I found that out as I wanted to try apkhot. To be honest, I didn't try on apkhot, yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leFloyd:
A few minutes ago, I was offered a 4.1.4 version and installed it. Now it's purely chinese :(

Maybe I have to reboot the phone for english...

From the design it is a version newer than the version I wrote about...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Well, before you put the old one back, safe this one for me will ya.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leFloyd:
I don't want the old one back - I want this one to be english ;)

How do I save it? Any idea where it has downloaded it's update? This was done within the app...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Well, it would have simply replaced the two apk's in the /system/app folder.

So look for:

LenovoSafeCenter.apk

LenovoSageWidget.apk

or something similar, it could have changed its name, or added a 3rd component.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leFloyd:
Got the files?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Well, it seems that Lenove Security (LeSec for short, and LenovoSafeCenter officially) is becoming less usuable. As mentioned above, it is fully Chinese, no Engrish anywere.

I had a look at the new V4 of it, even decompiled it. Not only 100% Chinese, but is hardcoded in the app, there are no resource xml files that we could translate. A big pity.

Also, there is one app (Waze, a social car navigation app) that in the latest version is incompatible with LeSec. Though it is at this moment the only incompatibility I ran into, it is also a pity.

That may mean we need to find an alternative:

For now, these two has shown up:

LBE : Somehow, I think LBE is actually the company that makes Lenovo LeSec. Or at least, there logo is shown in the about menu of LeSec as part of the "in cooperation with" mentions. Maybe the reason why the free LeSec is limiting itself?

Anyway, I am trying out LBE at the moment, to see how it works.

pDroid : pDroid looks promising. Specifically, they are promising ICS support, but right now, only GB, so one to keep an eye on, but not availible to us just yet.

Permissions Denied : A Paid app. But if it works well, it may be worth it. Not looked at it yet.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
So, LBE seems to work well. It does not have the hiding of apps for 'child mode' and 'privacy mode'. Nor does it have the 'anti-theft' or 'virus-scan' but it does the permissions thing well.

I tested, it nicely prompted/blocked permissions. And to be honest, using a slight more clear interface. If it is permissions, which was indeed what I was after, LBE seems to do the job. I also like I can block internet use separate for 3G and Wireless. Very useful.

One problem though: Waze is failing in the same way as with LeSec. Even if I make it a 'trusted' app. It seems the latest version of Waze simply does not like to be looked at too closely.

anti theft

I cannot input number In anti theft . for ex if I write +35989xxxxx I need two more digits but it does not allow it. If I write in national format 0899.... I have to write more digits than the phone number has. Any solution?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
As mentioned, while I started enthusiastic about LeSec, it is now focussing too much on China alone. Not as good internationally.

Try using one of the other anti-theft solutions.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karLcx:
hello,

super noob question. the lesec uninstall included in the original post - how do i use this? i thought it looked like an apk that needed renaming but that didn't seem to work. i have a lenovo k860 with ics and this is the only reference i found in english to lesec and uninstalling. help much appreciated :)

if i can't uninstall it, any details on how i can at least disable this application would be great. since the whole thing is in chinese i've had trouble with this interfering with what i'm doing, and even when it was in english, i saw no options to turn it off.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Just apply the uninstall using the phone recovery menu.

Alternatively, there are many management app's, like Titanium Backup, that allow you to 'freeze' an app. Freeze the Lenovo Security Center.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] karLcx:
thanks. my handset was sourced in china, and am pretty sure the recovery menu is in chinese only. titanium backup worked perfectly, though, and i was able to kill off lesec and a few other non-relevant system programs. just what i needed :cowboy:

edit: recovery menu NOT in chinese. don't know where i got that idea.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tzincbgzvenobg:
Or uninstall using system app remover. Look at the icon, the name is different. Just don't touch mobile uncle, gps, bluetooth, installer, launcher, file explorer , gps and anything with mtk or google in the name.

By uninstalling lenovo and Chinese apps I got more storage for my apps and games and my free ram got from 40 to 100-120 mb.

By replacing the stock battery saver with easy battery saver and by installing setcpu and putting it to start on reboot and governor from performance(processor always on 1ghz) to "on demand" from 300 mhz to 1ghz as needed and by putting ram manager for root and setting it to balance- more multitasking and creating a swap file in sd card for more"ram"

I can run more apps at the same time and the battery lasts 2 days moderate use instead of 1.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sk1rge:
I installed LeSec on my A660 (Cybermaus ROM). Since I still have trouble with the USB drivers except ABP, I used MyPhoneExplorer to install the APK files, however I did not make use of the META-INF folder.

The APP looks very interesting, I did not yet test it, just wanted to report 2 things:

- every time I start the app, I am asked if I want to update. The update is Chinese language only, so I don't want to, but I don't want to be asked to every time, neither. Just an annoyance, but meh.

- I tried to enter a security phone number for anti-theft, but could not enter more than 11 digits, which is too few if you want to use international coding.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tzincbg:
have momegu

For working antitheft replace with Avast mobile security. LeSec only accepts chinese numbers. Plus avast has very good traffic limitting firewall- select any app 3g/wifi/both block or ask- whitelist or blacklist

Minus - it doesn't have guest mode and cannot block the intrusive permissions of an app- for ex . sms send and to continue to use, but only can uninstall the whole app.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] leFloyd:
For antitheft I recommend cerberusapp...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] sk1rge:
Thanks for the recommendation, guys. Only after I posted this I read that Cybermaus now uses LBE Privacy Guard in his Lenovo ROM's, which is why I use that one now, too.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cybermaus:
Good. Though I am not claiming the others are not good also.

And to be correct, I am indeed using LBE myself, and am advising it, but I am not putting them in my ROM. Since it is installable from Play Store, I leave it as a user choice. Unlike LeSec, which was not installable.
