[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scarface1991:
Ok so he posted his question in the wrong section and he should feel bad about it. He did apologize and now to call him idiot and dumbass is the right way??? I don`t think so. The easiest way would be to just answer his question and let a mod move this topic to Q&A or close the topic. Done! But flaming him for being a noob isn`t the right way either. That is my opinion.

And to sshashlan who opened up this topic: Next time just open it up in the right section and use a more descriptive title because "WTF i9300???? :S" doesn`t cover it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asolram:
Mate, next time make sure you post in the right section or in the ROM tread so you can receive proper help as soon as possible ;) and make sure also to use a gordo descriptive title... Wtf doesn't say much

Before this gets closed, if you have access to odin /download mode maybe not everything is lost... Look for old stock ICS rom, stock ics kernel and modem and try to flash them with Odin. If nothing works then could be HW damage and in that case you'd better take it to repair.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sshashlan:
hay guys

I think I should apologize for some mistakes I made

1 - the "WTF" now that I thought about it, it was unlike me and I thought at the time it reflected what I really felt towards my GS3. but still it was wrong

2 - posting a question at the developers section. will I m a developer and I thought the best will be there and usually in the Q&A sections you don't get the best answers. and I thought I will find atleast something that will point me to where to look since I didnt even knew what happend the this thing and if you like to check, its not like I post alot here

lastly -

I m sorry that I forgot that some people can be agrisive and reflect onto people they dont konw "enough said" and I dont want to drag this Just that I know and learned a lot from XDA and its hard for me to see that people in a community will start treating each others as such. even if I was a noob.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] asolram:
If there is no PIT, then you don't have file structure on your device, look in the General section for the pit file for the i9300 (sorry couldn't find the post) and flash with it, the idea is to restore your partition structure, without it Odin will always fail as there is no space correctly allocated.

Try flashing with pit, hopefully that will fix your problem ;)

You should be able to get some proof that you sent it, or insurance from the shipping company, then they loose it they are liable.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patarchy:
Hi,

I understand that if a person get physical access to the device, even if it is encrypted and password protected, access can be obtain by connecting the tablet to a computer.

This could be done even if the N7 is not rooted neither debugging mode is on and fast boot is locked.

Thanks.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patarchy:
My concern is the following one:

The Nexus root kit allow to make a back up of the device, to unlock fast boot (That step will wipe the device), root the N7.

I understand that these steps can be done without N7 password.

When access in root mode, malicious code could be installed.

Nexus root kit allow you to restore the backup previously done, unroot and re-lock fast boot.

If what I state is correct, a person with physical access to the device can do whatever he wants to do. The user will have no way to be aware of it.

There is a way to protect a N7 against that kind of attack?

There is a way to protect access to fast boot or to disable access through USB?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truehybridx:
The way I understand it, I may be wrong though.

If you keep the boot loader locked, a malicious person would inevitably have to erase everything on the device to unlock it to root it.

Now if they made a backup first using the tool kit and restored when they were done, I feel they may undo everything they tried to put on your device.

Granted they would have a complete backup of your device on hand after everything's said and done :(

If physical security is a concern, I'd suggest having your information you want to keep safe completely off the device, using a cloud service, and inputting your password into such apps all the time.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] issak42:
If I turn on pattern lock (haven't tested with pin, password, face, but I don't know why it would be any different), and connect N7 to the computer, it won't connect. As in, I still see the Nexus 7 device in my computer, but when I click on it, it displays nothing. Only once I enter the pattern, files appear.

Of course, once you enter the pattern, you will gain access to files, even if you relock it (while still connected - once you disconnect, you will have to reenter the pattern)

You can encrypt the tablet in Security settings, and while I don't really know what that does, it should make the backup file unreadable without a password, otherwise this feature is useless.

And I think if you disable USB debugging, you can make installing ROMs and stuff not very possible (but I'm not sure - I just assume, since every flashing tutorial starts with 'enable USB debugging')

edit: http://support.google.com/android/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2425151
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patarchy:
Thanks for your response.

Sorry I miss explain the chronology:

The attacker switch off the device (could be done even if screen locked)

Reboot to the boot loader

Make the back up with the Nexus Root Kit. --> No password required, correct?

Unlock boot loader --> Device wiped.

Root the device

Restore the backup

Include malicious code

Unroot

Re-lock

If any one can confirm what stated is correct and if there is a way to prevent it.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patarchy:
The encryption only cipher apps and other personal data. It does not cypher the system files... To bad :(
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
Honestly, what are you afraid of happening? What do you keep on your device that would make someone go to the trouble to do this? They wouldn't even be able to boot into the OS if it was encrypted. The encryption is your best bet. Or, just don't let the device out of your sight (or pocket).
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] patarchy:
We need to secure several N7 that will be use by top management. We choose the N7 because no physical ports (unless the USB...). The back of the device will be glued, we will use a tailored version of Android (no google services at all) plus VPN for all data connection but we still get the physical access flaw issue.

Re: encryption

It does not cipher system file.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
Hmm... In that case, you might just have to secure it physically. The only way to prevent the exploit you mentioned would be to develop a custom bootloader that doesn't allow fastboot without proper authentication. But that's unrealistic.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] truehybridx:
In that case you might look into well, a case with a lock to block the USB or maybe some other hardware hacks that impede the device from connecting to a computer.

A case with charge ports to the pogo pins that obstruct the USB might be an option.

But like what was said, i custom boot loader might be a better option, contact Google directly about how to block boot loader unlocks

I was on here trying to find a way to reset my battery's memory...and I found it! Its so easy. So during the day, drain your battery to 20%, and plug it in all night. When you wake up, take off the back, and take out the battery for 3-4 minutes. Then, put the battery in the phone and turn it on. As it's turning on, plug in the charger. Leave the charger in until the phone says "charged" or has the battery icon showing full. Unplug your charger, and say Hi to a factory battery.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Matrix_19:
my understanding is that the battery is never really charged to 100% (even if you see 100% charged in the software).

it is a way to prevent overcharging the battery (because on the long run, it is decreasing the battery life and performance)

So, what you are doing is that you found a way for overcharging the battery and the result is that the battery life for the first 100 to 98 will be very good, however it will go back to normal after this step.

Correct me If I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that I'm right :)

Lol....you'll have to show more proof than that, even if youre phone confirms what you said.

Matrix is right, I think this is in your head. Placebo effect as its known.

show us screen shots of batterry useage for a week with this technique, then a week with out.

Then others will have to try it out.

Hey if your smart enough (since again your NOT doing anything physically, trust me ) you could write a a little script and make it an app?

Also its been said the battery gauge is really kind of a pasifier for us.

Physicaly there is no way you are changing the state of the battery by just touching the contacts real fast.

UNLESS your batter contacts are totally fried/or oxidized and somehow the friction has cleaned them??? :confused:

If any thing, you are resetting the battery statistics/calibration and that ( confirmed by google, and a few a manufacturers)

does nothing.

One thing about batteries; the harder you work them the shorter they live, this is why Samsung,htc even apple said the batteries don't fully charge 100%, because if they did the batteries wouldnt last half as long.

But hey keep working on it maybe you got something there! :good:

and just for yucks
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] erbsmokah:
Your phone never charges all the way to prevent over charging and help keep your battery healthy for a longer period of time. Some kernels allow you to change this hidden setting from 98% to 100%.

All you are doing is circumventing the system and potentially harming your battery. And unless you keep doing this for every charge cycle it will return to normal.

You may be experiencing a placebo effect because your battery stats have changed based on the over charge. The battery stats data is used to guage your battery life.. This is updated for every cycle and will eventually return to normal on its own.
