The four lock-screen widgets are OK (the calendar is the most useful I feel), but I was surprised that there was only 4. Are there any others out there?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Timbermill:
Mizuu has just updated to add some.

Personally, I've turned lockscreen widgets off for now.
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Cor-master:
Hopefully more apps get updated to support this feature as right now it's a bit useless
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] mlaws90:
There are more in the play store, search "4.2 lock screen widgets"...its mostly clocks, but any thing new is a plus!

EDIT: There are double as many apps as when I checked yesterday, new widgets, a lot more. I can only assume this is a glimpse of what's to come.

If you don't like the 4.2 lock screen clock there's the Nexus 4 clock that allows you to add the 4.2 Analogue clock to your lock screen. I've also added the IP Widget that allows you to add a Widget to your lock screen that provides network status.

In the UK there are only 3 Widgets clock, calendar & gmail by default for some reason, what's the 4th default Widget?

Hi guys i work in IT security my job is mainly pentesting for those of you who do not no what that is its basically an ethical hacker and i am interested as to weather there are meny apps or framework to do this on android if you no of any please list them below thanks for your help everyone
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
Are you trying to pentest Android or use Android to pentest your customers?

You can run Backtrack on Android-powered devices but you may encounter problems with e.g. promiscous mode

Pentesting Android itself is a different target alltogether but tools catered for Network Man-in-the-middle, Java attacks or Linux attacks (Android being based on Linux and GNU tools) should help you out
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terrorbite:
I was thinking more of using Android as a pentesting platform as it would make my job a lot quicker if I could run certain attacks from my phone

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0undless:
dSploit is a good framework so far...there's also zANTI which isn't free and basically has less options. For ARP-Spoofing there's droidsheep and SSLstrip as a standalone app. if you're rooted you can even change your mac adress via Mac Adress Ghost,

#edit: As d4fseeker said promiscous mode is almost non existant for the most wifi chipsets at this point so you won't get very far in regards to WiFi "pentesting"
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] terrorbite:
Thanks for your help mate I have been testing dsploit which is very interesting and as for Zanti I think it's a bit of a con the way they make you pay for creds and I'm not that interested in arp spoofing or wifi cracking there a bit a mature and you don't get many requests for that sort of thing in my line of work lol
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s0undless:
depending on what your line of work is you might want to take a a look at the mobile version of wireshark/ettercap for wireshark the app is simply called shark and to crudly read the pcap files there's shark reader. other than that i would prefer a netbook with the linux distribution of your choice over a smartphone any time, yeah it's nice that you are able to do some network mapping and a few kind of attacks etc. with your android but not much more than that not bad for an initial assessment if you want deeper analysis use your notebook/netbook

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arthaz28:
Got my JB update today, I was rooted stock before, and the install went fine without any problems.

After the update, my Quadrant score went down dramatically, from 4500 (stock rooted ICS) to 3700 JB.

So I did a factory reset and all hell breaks loose. I dont seem to have 4G anymore, although the 4G signs is showing on the top. Play store, Maps, Navigations, etc wont load (maybe since I dont internet it wont load?). After noticing all these problems, I did another factory reset.

And now I cant even sign in to Google.

Seriously, I never thought an OTA upgrade would mess up my phone. :(

Can anyone shine a light my way?

Thanks.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Roamin64:
I had a similar problem with the OTA LH2 on a rooted stock ICS , I couldn't connect WIFI, a lot of apps weren't working properly. After 4-5 factory resets, still no go. My only option was to use ODIN and reinstall the complete firmware that way, and all was back to normal. Im pretty sure this happened because of OTA over a rooted device. Worth a try I think.. Good luck.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] mt3g:
Odin the update like above then enter recovery and wipe again, sucks you got a messed up download.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arthaz28:
Thanks! Yup, wifi wont work, 4G wont work. I think, like you, ODIN is my only option at this point.

Should I use this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1991255

So how do I odin that zip file to my phone?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dark Nightmare:
Unzip the odin file, turn the device off, holding volume down, home button and then the power button, the phone should go into download mode, start odin up, connect the phone via usb, hit the pda option, then browse to the file you downloaded and unzipped, the md5 file should be the only file showing up, select it and hit start.

Phone will auto restart upon completion.

Edit: Don't use that file, use this: https://hotfile.com/get/179444770/50a3b770/48ddf5f/T999UVDLJA_T999TMBDLJA_TMB.zip

Perfect example of why I always say to do firmware upgrades either OTA (if 100% stock unrooted) or Odin. :)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arthaz28:
Is that file the stock rooted JB OTA? I downloaded the root66 stock rooted OTA: http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390169635556426451

But the file that I downloaded has *.7z thus unrecognizable by ODIN's PDA option.

I will download your file now and give it a shot.

Thanks!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Thats 7zip. Download from 7zip.org and use to extract.

If you want thst stock unrooted on, get it from my fw thread. The download should be a LOT faster than using hotfile
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arthaz28:
Ok, I downloaded the *.7z file, extracted, flash it through ODIN and get my wifi to work, and my 4g to work for a brief moment.

Then my 4g stopped working again, and i notice that when i go to Status option in the setting, my device is listed as Modified, whereas for a few minutes after i flashed, it was listed as Normal.

When my device was listed as Normal, my 4g would work, then it switched itself to Modified and it seems that Samsung or Tmo locked my device. :confused:

Ugh, I am so bummed!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Modified ststus is jusy becsuse your rooted. It goes away if you revert.

It shouldnt have any bearing on your data though.

What does it say for baseband, network type, and is your imei there?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Darmokk:
I am on stock ICS (Android version 4.0.4)

My baseband version is T999UVLEM

I rooted my phone when I got it at launch, and then put off all the incremental updates until official JB was released for Tmobile. Now that it's released, I'd like to update to. What is the proper way for me to do this? Flash through odin I assume? Will I still be able to keep my root or root the device after JB is installed?

Thanks in advance, I just don't want a nightmare situation like the OP if I flash incorrectly

Thanks for that, it pretty much covers all of my questions.

One that I'm still wondering about though, is can I go straight from rooted UVALEM to the latest JB firmware? Or do I flash back to stock UVALEM and THEN flash JB? Or do I need to flash each incremental update before finally finishing off with JB?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Yup! Just Odin flash the full firmware file, not the ota. Use the root66 version to stay rooted.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Dark Nightmare:
Thanks GG, been a while dude, I've no issues so far with the update, everything is smooth, my playstore acted weird for a bit, then after adding my accounts, it worked fine, weird. Otherwise, I gotta admit I'm loving it.

Or they can use the regular firmware file, flash it via mobile odin which roots it for ya, without the hassle and is much faster, I used it so I can say clearly it did an excellent job.

Note: if hotfile is too slow and there are no alternatives, I can upload the full firmware odin file to dev-host for everyone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I always use mobile odin pro. My favorite app! But not everyone wants to pay for it and the free version doesnt have EverRoot.

I usually recommend it, but too many people were updating today so I wanted to stick with what everyone should be willing to do!

Ive already got the stock fw hosted from my account if that helps.

Was one of the first things I did after release. Check the firmware thread in my sig for that Plus more!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] arthaz28:
It turns out there was a 4g blackout around my area last night. But I did odin'ed your root66 TMO JB version and it's awesome! I was wondering if you're gonna make the same version with UMS included?

I used mobile Odin Pro super easy and worked like a charm. $5 well spent lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Towle:
Just an FYI.. You didn't get the full update. You need to update via PC Odin or OTA to get all partitions rewritten.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Just wanted to clarify real quick, the root66 firmware was built by mrRobinson, not me. All credit for it goes to him, and I agree it is awesome!

We decided that it'd be a good idea to put his links in my thread because its stickied. It makes it much easier to locate and access. Once the chaos dies down in a week or two his thread may get burried a bit.

Anyway, ill double check my post and see if I can make it stand out better!

Oh and to answer, I doubt he will make other versions. His goal was a completely stock, original firmware, but pre rooted, and that doesn't trigger the flash counter!

The only problem I'm seeing on my phone after that jelly bean update is that the jelly bean animations stagger until the it builds up RAM in the memory. Ics just seemed a little smoother with animations. But I'm loving the battery life..... Maybe I'll try to do a factory reset.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] driftnut56:
I don't like this Jelly Bean update. My phone is less smooth. Lots of jitter switching between apps and scrolling. Data was dropping like crazy before also. I reapplied the firmware via Kies to fix the data and disabled all the motion features to fix the jitter but that hasn't fixed the problem 100%.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Not really, You only have to do so once. Or, if you are on the correct build, use the OTA. I love Mobile Odin Pro, and use it all the time!

Actually, it is true. Chainfire specifically coded Mobile Odin to NOT be able to flash certain partitions, such as tz, sbl, rpm, etc. He did this because it would put too much power into the hands of too many people that dont know what they are doing. Essentially, hes preventing them from accidentally bricking their devices! The way Mobile Odin works, and the features it has would make it very easy to flash one of these other partitions. The only time they ever need flashing is when a new update is released by Samsung. But Mobile Odin is not for one time updates. Its for commited flashers!

The only way Mobile Odin can flash these partitions, is by using the OTA. This is a brand new feature as of a few weeks ago. The flash kernel it uses is basically also a recovery. So it is able to recovery flash the OTA, and because it uses the update-script, it is able to apply the full OTA. I hope that part makes sense!

There are 10 separate partitions being updated in these releases. Mobile Odin only Odin-style flashes 5.

Hope that clears things up!

Interesting....so now what are my options? What is the best way to reflash the proper way and keep root? Is it even worth the trouble considering that the phone (as far as I can tell) is running flawlessly? Or will not flashing those particular partitions come back and bite me in the ass later on?

Thanks for your help understanding mobile odin pro :good:
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Im sure youve already answerd this somewhere, but what steps di you us to update then root?

I only ask becsuse you seem to be having an awful lot of problems that most peoplr dont.

Thats the thing, there's no way to know if or when it may come back to haunt you. If you are still stock and haven't modified anything, you could Odin flash the root66 firmware and you shouldn't notice any changes since system-wise your just rewriting whats there.

If youre sure youll remember it, and its running fine then you may wish to wait. Its up to you really.

In the end its just a recommendation, not a requirement.

Hope that helps!

So I have an idea for a ticker mod, but since I have zero programming knowledge I thought I'd see if any of you smart people could help. The stock ticker has the icons for messages, vvm, email, missed calls and im. Trailblazers mod allows us to use the icons to display the apps even if there are no missed messages, calls,etc. I don't use the vvm, email or im, so I'm wondering if it would be possible to change those three to different apps... Like Google Voice, Gmail, and contacts? I wouldn't mind trying myself, but have no idea where to even start looking. Not worried about changing the icons, just what app is launched when pressed. Anyone have any idea if this is possible...or if it's already been done/tried?

trailblazer101 is the ticker guru, if you do want to attempt a ticker mod you can start here: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19758250&postcount=1

trailblazer let us in on some of his sources to patch, it has to do with ticker. then you can take apart his currrent mod and see that there are already actions for those icons. mow it will go deep so decompile the apks and look around, they will start to make some sense.

he may just tell you/us where the mods are once you can grasp what you will be doin :P
[Continuum General] trailblazer101:
It would be really, really easy... hahahaha... Voice Mail already sends you to Google Voice in my Gingerbread Mods, so we are already a fifth done, haha... But to be honest with you, why don't you just set the shortcuts you want in the quick launch screen, now that is is customizable and all :P (and soon will be rotation aware also ;) )

But yea, it wouldn't be hard at all... Changing from VVM to Google Voice was a matter of changing two lines of code.... Changing the others will be a little more involved, because you have to delete a lot of previous code (there's some code that goes into launching the email screen, other than just calling the program... It has to get/send the ID for the email, etc etc etc... same thing for messaging...) But that's just a matter of deleting code...
[Continuum General] roaddog665:
Lol... Didn't even know about the Google Voice...see, your way ahead of me! :p

And I've already set the others, just figured that since these are there not being used might as well try to make them useful. My problem is that all this code is exactly that to me... Code! As in super secret, undecipherable code! Lol. Now, if somewhere it says "push this icon to launch app x" and I can change x to whatever app I need, I could probably figure it out... Maybe:D I'm looking at the Services.jar smali now, and it's giving me a headache. Haha.

[Continuum General] trailblazer101:
Yes, that should work! Good thinking :D Now, don't be worried if it force closes, trust me, there's a good chance :P haha... You could also use my program, which would do that for you automatically... (choose 11, y, n)...

EDIT: Like right now, I'm bored... I just finished adding rotation to the quick launch and the missed notification screen, so I'm working on something a little more.. adventurous :P I'm trying to see if I can make it so if you hit the grip pad three times in a row fast, it'll automatically skip to the next/previous song... But i keep getting FCs, hahaha...
