Can anyone give details as to why the camera is shakey on new versions of android? Is this a driver issue, app issue or is it hardware based? Also has anyone noticed that other camera features no longer work...night mode in particular.

thanks

Anyone else have an issue where when you go to bring up the share menu it takes bloody forever?

Either the big one or the small one, they both take on the order of several SECONDS to come up. Seems excessive....

Any tips would be appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] jeeplj8:
I am having problems with EAS and my S3. Basically, it works great for a few days, then just stops syncing. I checked all my settings compared to the HTC EVO LTE this replaced, and they are identical, etc. it shows recent sync yet no data is moving.

Are there some tips or something that is different between the EAS for HTC and Samsung?

[Sony Tablet S] patsous:
Hi guys,

I'm being mad of trying to get my tablet back on -_-'

My tablet block on the sony logo but I always can access to the recovery.

I tried to update with all signed ota * but no way, I always get the "E:Prohibit update as a result of checking version or base sku".

*

Sometimes the signed-nbx03_016-ota-120803071.zip succed but I still get blocked on the sony logo (or maybe I have to wait more then 30 min for the update ?) wich is weird because I have a only wifi version (SGPT111CH/S)

So I'm here to get some help if anybody know how the hell get my tablet alive again.

Here my recovery.log

And the region.prop

Thanks for all, I'll pay a lot of beer for this one ;)
[Sony Tablet S] patsous:
just a small up ;)
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
When you are stuck on sony logo do you have adb shell, su access? I assume you have root?

By the sounds of it your vendor.prop's are out of wack.

Can you try pull /vendor/vendor.prop while stuck at the boot logo.

You may have to push a new vendor.prop!
[Sony Tablet S] patsous:
Normaly I do have root access, but I'm not sure cause I never get the AIO running on adb/recovery mode

Thanks for the answer,

I will try this, I'll give you a feedback
[Sony Tablet S] stifilz:
So you have drivers installed for recovery? i.e. 'adb devices' works
[Sony Tablet S] patsous:
yes i can do adb shell, I haven't the time to try I willgive you a feedback tomorow.
[Sony Tablet S] patsous:
Sorry for the late response, I got a lot of work these day.

So tryed to pull /vendor/vendor.prop but /vendor/vendor.prop does not exist...

I'm currently trying to push it a new folder vendor

I literally hate the new keyboard that got installed with the new update. I also prefer good old fashioned typing to using Swype.

Anybody got a way to go back to the ICS keyboard?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ThrowingKs:
There are plenty of free keyboards in the Play Store. Here is a random version of the ICS keyboard, for free:

http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=inputmethod.latin.ported

Just make sure you enable it as an input device.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] basilray:
Good call, I didn't even think of that. I'll kick around and see if I can find something a bit closer to what the stock keyboard was. After 6 months, I just can't go to the new one. My fingers aren't smart enough.

In the meantime, here's to hoping someone can point me at the actual stock keyboard from ICS! :D

EDIT:

I actually like this one better than the original ICS keyboard that was shipped w/ this phone: Link

Just wish it had built in emoticons. I use them like a 12yr old girl when sending SMS.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] celticking:
Find the 4.2 keyboard apk. It's amazing.

In the end, I just really liked the stock ICS keyboard that came on the LTE.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ilusnforc:
I can live with the new keyboard but I just need to know how to hide it. The ICS keyboard had a hide button in the bottom left corner, the new one doesn't have one at all that I can find. Sometimes pressing the back arrow next to the home button on the bottom of the phone will make the keyboard go away after typing so I can see and press a send button but sometimes that will take me back to the previous screen and I'll lose everything I just typed.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rubyknight:
What's wrong with it? :confused::confused: It works great for me. They even let you remove the arrows at the bottom so that they aren't in the way like in ics... And if you wanna close it, hit back. Its rather simple really... And the swipe feature works great.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sonin66:
i can dig what you mean, i miss that little hide away button that was on the old keyboard. wonder why they take the little things away? I also miss the numerical lock on the right side instead of the left, i was use to it the other way
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Have you tried just pulling the HTC_IME.apk from an ICS ROM zip in the system/app folder and swapping it out with your current HTC_IME.apk? Set permissions, of course, and reboot.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] basilray:
I haven't...but I'm also not rooted. I didn't feel the need to do so as the phone ran great out of the box. Might be time to give it a go, though.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sandyfriend:
Hi, I just got my HD+ back ,

and wanted to put cm10 on it .

I follow the step

stuck at the last step .

I flash the cwm img to sdcard.

nd+ reboot with cwm but not Usb connection. win 7 64bit said it is invalid device, driver install is fail too.

so I turned to ubuntu . I browsered the developer thread

someone said in linux, only need is puting the cm zip to cm10sdcard partition for your sdcard.

I am not quite understand this part ?

in linux, I only saw one partition FAT 32 label : boot. size about 120Mb

the other is unallocated.

here is what i tryed.

1. create a sdcard parition :FAT 32 label sdcard

put sdcard back. the cwm said can not Mount sdcard.

2. since I can connect the hd+ to pc . I adb push the cm zip to sdcard on the devices.

but install zip for sdcard and internal memory still show can not Mount /sdcard and /emmc/

:crying: Can some one give me a hand ? thanks a lot

BTW, is it possible the problem of sd card my is sandisk 16gb class 4

[Update] it seem like my sdcard have problem. can not get cm10sdcard partition. so thanks.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akramarshad:
install Cm10 problem

Use a larger(preferably 8 gb or larger) micro sd card.Follow instructions by Verygreen in original post.

When you burn image to the card ,it will creat 4 partitions,but you will see only first(boot) partition on Windows PC.

Now boot into Ubuntu,either from cd or installed on your pc.

Now insert the card into your pc.

Yowill be able to see all 4 partitions.

Transfer ROM zip file and G Apps zip to CM10 (last) partition.

Take out the card and isert into Nook HD and reboot into recovery(pressing power and N key when it is starting to power up.

Install zip files,ROM first then G Apps and reboot.

You have working CM10 on your card.

If you want to boot into B&N software pull the card out,withe card inserted it will always boot into CM10.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] lelinuxien52:
Thanks for this thread. It's so fun !

But, I have solve the problem (I think) after flashing my phone with my kernel (exynos_mem files modified).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Chainfire:
Yes, as stated, the best solution is a fixed kernel :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supercurio:
My app clearly states the limitations of the approach (inside the app itself, leaves no doubt)

But it should not loose every time against the demo exploit at boot, so I'll change for a more aggressive way to start.

Thanks Chainfire for taking the time to test.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] SMARTPHONEPC:
So when do you think Samsung+carriers will plausibly get around to officially fixing it?

Sounds more precarious to not try your workaround & there is reasonable deniability even if there is a warranty issue..?

Tomorrow I'd like to install the official T-Mobile SGH-T889 multi-window update followed by ExynosAbuse-v1.30.apk , anyone expect issues as this recently discovered exynos exploit is not listed as addressed in this likely tested for weeks update?:

So is ExynosAbuse-v1.30.apk now regarded as the best-easiest-fastest-safest reversible root method for stock ROM compatible devices (as it also offers a reversible exynos exploit work-around with full unroot)?

-Thanks :cool:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] PIRATA!:
Tried demo app this way:

- 2 times under WiFi and I get "Exploit FAIL" and the toast shows the directory that is something like "[!] ... /exynos-...."

- 1 time under 3G regular data connection and I still get "Exploit FAIL" but in the toast I don't see any more the directory but only the message

I use Chainfire's exploit app.

Am I secure???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supercurio:
Chainfire, guys, please give a try to the v0.7 version of my app, same place.

Chainfire, it would have been nice to be informed while you were preparing the article (on your early conclusions)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] ThaiM:
Just wondering, when Samsung DOES release a fix, I think it'd kinda be a catch 22 because those rooted or modified won't be able to update - or those infected won't be able to update. So Samsung will have to be lax with that rule. Or is that even possible? But regardless, I'm sure you guys will be able to get us the Samsung fix when and if they come out for us modified folks.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supercurio:
Yes, that's good thinking.

And also why I tried to provide something (even an imperfect workaround) that doesn't alter system.

I have 2 questions tho and I'll verify to get an answer to the first one.

- Is my app really not triggering the "modified" status

- If Chainfire un-do all the modifications applied by his tools, will the device return to its "un-modified" status

Or maybe the "un-modified" status can be faked, restoring the proper function of OTA updates.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] makkeonmies:
maybe note worthy thing to here, in EU you dont lose your warrantly for applying fixes like this in fact you can install kernels/roms as many times as you want and you still got your warrantly. what comes to my own experience from this, my phone have been repaired 2 times because micro-usb didnt want to co-operate with me first time i had miui installed, second time had cm10 when i sent my phone to get fixed, both times got it fixed free of charge.

source: https://fsfe.org/freesoftware/legal/flashingdevices.en.html

tl;dr

if flashing original firmware dont fix issues you had on your phone, then you must have the damage covered free of charge(ie. micro-usb port goes crazy)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] peterlimonade:
Chainfire, thanks for your elaborate demo.

I tested the exploit demo thrice with mobile security apps disabled; once with your app, and twice with the two "disable exploit" boxes from your app unticked. The first time, the exploit failed.

The kernel I have installed (link in my sig) seems to have fixed the problem. It uses the fix by AndreiLux that was successfully implemented by Entropy512 from the original thread.

Both times I rebooted, the exploit failed (see screenshot). I guess this is expected, but both times after boot, the checkbox "disable exploit" was enabled again without touching it.

Seems like a success story to me.

Thanks again!

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] supercurio:
The 0.9 update of my app is strong now on boot (or less weak), but this is not very satisfying.

Frustrating as there's no "perfect" fix for regular users I'm thinking about right now.

I'm not really a fan of waiting, are you ? ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] toxicthunder:
@supercurio I was wondering the exact same thing on how may the "un-modified" status can be faked. Then again, as another user pointed out, though warranty rules and regulations maybe the same across all regions - it is their comprehension and application which is ambiguous.

I for one can attest that at my place they will simply replace the internals of your phone as long as the purchase bill you produce confirms that your device is still covered by the manufacturer warranty.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RyanZA:
Props on the great research Chainfire, I agree with it all 100%

Personally though, malware authors target the easy and low hanging fruit - in this case, 99% of phone users who have not used any kind of fix. (99% is a very low estimate). They have no real reason to try and 'out race' mine or supercurios fix in practice, as (mine in particular) has very few users. Why bother creating a special exploit that only runs on boot, when you can just target 99%+ of all unfixed devices by just running the exploit when the app is started?

I've seen 4 malicious uses of the exploit in the wild so far, and all of them run on app start, which is blocked by all 3 'unsecure'/non-kernel fixes. Users are still VERY heavily encouraged to use any of the fixes as they currently stop all uses of the exploit in the wild. Supercurios is still the best one as it does not require root, and should definitely be advertised by the media as much as possible as it stops a real world and current threat to user security as best as it can.
