[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidinCT:
Just a question on this. So, boot level stuff is not posable because of encryption. So as of now, Custom roms are out, not possable, YET.

With this being known, what most of us would be happy with is a suto Interop unlock. This would allow max unsigned apps and maybe some minor system level apps (think Advanced Config type apps) maybe bosted with a root tools type of app (almost a custom rom but, not). This stuff will all run on the OS, not the boot level. Shouldn't this be possable once someone finds a hole someplace ?

So, full unlock with custom roms will not be possable but, at least we can have a step there to have some fun with out phones till someone actually figures it out (slim chance if it's encrypted)

And I agree, becides hobbiests and hackers (and XDA readers :) ), no one really cares about a unlock, that is about 98% of of the Windows Phone users. That does not mean we (the 2-3%) dont want it...
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mcosmin222:
MSFT clearly does not care about hackers like us. Otherwise they would give us more APIs to program with.

They care about the bad type of hackers.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StevieBallz:
In WP7 we only had Full Unlock on devices that had a Custom ROM flashed onto it. This does not mean that it is not possible to exploit other loopholes but the NT Kernel is kind of a harder nut to crack than the old CE Kernel powering WP7. Basically you would need a vulnerability in a system App to get your code running. Then that code would have to escape from it's jail and acquire a higher permission level. Then I guess the first step would be to write something to the registry that would allow:

a) to sideload apps (basically what the developer unlock does)

b) to elevate permissions on those sideloaded apps (similar to what the Root Tools were able to do)

We only had two ways ever to get any Unlocks without flashing a CustomROM on WP7. The first was the original ChevronWP7 and the second was Window Break which only worked on certain Samsung devices and was quickly patched. Aside from that everything concentrated on the CustomROM route or on how an Unlock achieved previously could be conserved through system updates (Nodo to Mango).

So it might be quite some time before we even see something like the Interop Unlocks. Even most Android devices were routed by flashing a modified kernel.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DavidinCT:
It's been a while, has there been ANY progress on a Unlock even if interop or something for Windows Phone 8 ? I have a dev unlock and it limits me to 3 apps but, what I miss the most is apps like Advanced config giving me unlimited options for colors...

I searched and there seems to only be threads in the T-mobile section for the S3, or other phones (sorry if I missed one).

So normally when an OTA gets pushed out, we get a notification and have to accept the download correct? Well my last OTA to JB was downloaded and installed overnight while I was sleeping (never touched my phone). So I woke up and had JB installed.

At the time it didnt matter too much because I was bone stock, but it still irritated me, because what if I wasnt stock. Now Im rooted/ROM'd and dont want anything like that happening again.

So is there a way to block the OTA for a Vz GS3?

I see this app here in the play store:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bitrifle.otablocker&hl=en

but there are only 25 total reviews so im not sure how much faith I would really want to put in that.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
OK three things if you upgrade to supersu pro you can go into survivor mode which will look to protect root at all costs. Secondly you could disable automatic updates in settings. And lastly there is an App now called voodoo ota rootkeeper which will allow you to back up your root and then you will be able to temporary un root take the ota and then restore root but bear in mind if you read the descriptions on the recently released roms they are set up to block ota update pushes

Let me know how you make out
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Bold emphasis is mine. To delve into this a little further, the exact file that is removed by devs is called "sdm 1.0" which is a system app. If you use Titanium Backup (or really any file explorer) you can freeze or remove that file. Plenty of folks started doing this during one of our previous OTA's. Also, if the OTA installs but fails (usually because you have a custom recovery) you need to do the above step AND also go to /cache folder and delete the OTA from that directory. Here's an example.

As an fyi, doing this will result in your "Check for updates" option in Settings/ to force close but that is intentional.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Emphasis was unintentional as you can tell I am super new to all things development related see now I learned something new again thanks for the heads up brother and again did not mean to highlight any portion of text
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stupidchicken03:
Thanks guys. Im currently running the latest (4.1.2) milestone ROM from AOKP, so im really not sure if they bake blocking the OTA into their ROMs or not.

I do have MyBackUpPro and can freeze system aap, so ill hop in and see if I can find sdm. Im not expecting another OTA for a while, but I just really do not want it to auto install like it did previously.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Haha no I was saying the bold emphasis was mine. I was just adding onto what you posted, everything you said was perfect.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] MIKEYSAKZ:
Wow am I not paying attention goes to show you I should maybe focus on my job instead of the forums
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stupidchicken03:
Guess AOKP doesnt include the sdm 1.0 application. So im guessing it will not/can not auto update when they are pushed from Vz :)

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] doctor_droid:
Its just a platform bro

Its a business opportunity for them so why wouldn't they like it

Regarding effects

When gameloft releases a game for ios it knows exactly the hardware for which the game will run

Bt android has alot of variety

Therefore in order to ensure the game runs on maximum handsets (some though costly have poor gpu) wid smoothness, some effect must b disabled

I find no other reason to differentiate

So iOS is better than android in gaming?? :eek:

Hello,

I'm new user of HOX. I never flash ROM or rooting or what so ever. Recently I encountered an annoying problem.

In my security settings, I set PIN for my screen security and Lock phone after 10 minutes of inactivity.

Everytime I open another task in my notification bar. It turned out my screen is locked and I have to key in PIN to use another task. For eg, I'm checking my Gmail, then I scroll down the notification bar and open Facebook to view my Facebook notification, and then to view my Facebook, I have to unlock my screen.

Why is it so ??? Please help and it is very annoying.

Besides that, anyone have good apps to introduce for off and on screen without pushing power button and not draining the battery ?

Thanks.

HERO H2000+ Rooting (OTHER MODS)​

Sdcard2 to sdcard1 permanent mounting swap mod guide below

This guide is useful so your external sd card you have to physically put into the mobile your self will be able to be used as a storage for apps to be installed directly to, which is normally only possible if you use annoying apps like app2sd which are just a huge inconvenience.

ANYWAY right click this file and save it onto your phone or computer to copy to your phone

http://www.cactuz.net/files/zp100/vold.fstab

once you load up your phone using a file manager with root permissions copy the file and

replace

it with the one installed onto the phone.

(SYSTEM/ETC/VOLD.FSTAB)

restart your phone and you're done!

edit:

Just added the VOLD.FSTAB into a .zip incase it's removed in future.

Here or attached at bottom also :)

---

Remove 3 button virtual keys + use mute key as back (the key above the volume keys)

This will help you have a bigger screen view, more authentic iphone feel, and basically remove useless buttons.

Steps

1. First download ((THIS)) or the attached KEYREMAP.zip at the bottom of this post.

2. attach your phone via USB then copy the KEYREMAP.zip to your phones sdcard.

3. Unzip the file there you will get a folder called KEYREMAP, once you have done that inside that folder there will be 2 more folders

- MODDED (COPY AND PASTE THE SYSTEM TO SYSTEM)

- ORIGINAL (COPY AND PASTE THE SYSTEM TO SYSTEM)

-Disconnect your phone now.

4. Using an explorer (explorer or rootexplorer on your phone) go to the folder MODDED (COPY AND PASTE THE SYSTEM TO SYSTEM) then copy the folder "system" to the folder "system" at the main (ROOT) directory of your phone and replace the already exisiting files.

5. restart your phone and you are done :)

edit: Changed modded keymap due to system drop down menu button disappearing, fixed so now you can have a drop down menu button and still remove the 3 virtual buttons at the bottom :)
