[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] aybarrap1:
This is not an exploitation of lockscreen shortcuts. This an exploitation of a secured lockscreen and bypassing it completely. This means the shortcuts are irrelevant because they can access EVERYTHING on your phone.

Doing it only a couple of times may not work. It took me almost 20 to make it happen the first time. Then it took only twice. Again 4 times. Once I had gotten in, I could turn the screen off and whenever I decided to look again I went straight to homescreen...no lockscreen...until I rebooted. Once I had exploited, I had access to everything on my phone. Since it only requires a little patience, anyone who is determined to get in will do so. The fact that the steps have been plastered everywhere makes it even more potentially dangerous. The problem lies in TW framework and 4.1.1 is not immune. As best as I can tell, neither is 4.2 since it affects the Note II as well.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ingenious247:
From my understanding, you need to be able to click a shortcut on the lock screen for the exploit to work? Unless I read it wrong..

Hence, no shortcuts on my lock screen, no exploit.

*edit - nevermind I see how it is done.. however after about 30 tries I cannot reproduce on my stock S3
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] monkeypaws:
This whole issue for me is hilarious. The blogs post the actual instructions for people to do this so then possibly wanna be thiefs will actually know bow to do this. Either way. Most people who steal phones don't care about your personal info. Its easier to Google a hard reset on most phones through hardware keys than by fiddleing with security codes and special methods mentioned here. What's to stop someone from taking my sgs3 and booting it into recovery through hardware keys and resetting it. Pop out the Sim card and its all theirs, brand spanking new. No special methods. Lol . seriously guys. This is why I don't use lock screen passwords or codes. My phone is either always with me or in a locked area. Its my own fault if I leave it for someone to steal. What's even funnier is I saw a similar exploit for the iPhone. Same deal. Hook it up to itunes and its reset. Wow.....
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daxecutioner24:
Your kinda speaking ignorantly maybe where you live is like that but in bigger cities Like New York your thing might be stolen by just using it on the train. On any train crime happens anywhere in ny, so sometimes is not "someone's fault" that their phone is gone.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] monkeypaws:
Sorry if that's what it sounded. I live in a big city too. I meant this more to the fact that no one asks for their stuff to be stolen but this "exploit" seems silly when smart phones comes with a hard hard reset option. So no matter how much security you place your stuff is viable to be erased . unless you have other means of recovering that data.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] daxecutioner24:
Oh yeah of course this is definitely overblown agreed on that, once you lost your phone its over sucks either way lol. Samsung is definitely not releasing any "patch" for this. We want a firmware update!

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] william58:
Today for my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II, got a ScanDisk ULTRA microSDHC 32GB 30mb/s card that was $69 for $29.99. :good:

I actually got it for my Samsung Galaxy Tab but decided to swap out the 16GB one in the Note II to the Galaxy Tab instead.

Is that a smart move? I like my phone more than the Tab. Which can benefit the most, the Note or the Tab?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] petard:
Whatever you think should have more storage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] william58:
That is what we have moderators for ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
I should think if $29.99 was a good deal then get one for your tab as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] william58:
I ran out of cash (don't like to use credit card for stuff like this) or I would have bought two of them.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:
Well leave it in your phone for now seeing as how you use your phone the most.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] william58:
I'm a professional photographer and have been using my Note II to show clients my photo's etc.

If I find that the Tab's bigger screen looks as well or better than the Note, I may end up using that one the most.

I won't know till I get the photo's on the Tab as I've only had the Tab one day.

Then again, I won't cart the Tab around everywhere, but the Note II goes everywhere with me...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] LittleRedDot:

The sandisk 32gb cards have been crapping out on a lot of people with Note 2's (me included) theres a link in the Tmobile section with A LOT of people having issues.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] william58:
Thanks for the heads up. What issues were you and others having?

Maybe the Note II isn't suppose to handle more than what it came with?

Did you format the card once in the Note? Sometimes if you don't do it in the phone, there are problems.

I've had no problems with the Sandisk 16 GB I had in there before.

UPDATE: After seeing your warning, I went to the BB site on the card to check the reviews and sure enough right away I saw they were having issues with the card & Samsung Note II.

It must be an issue with Samsung as I've never had problems with sandisk before and I have several with my Nikon D3 & D5100. Of course those aren't micro ones either.

I wonder if I should take it back and exchange it for this one:

PNY Technologies - 32GB High Speed microSDHC Class 10 Memory Card

Sale: $29.99

Reg. Price: $79.99

You Save: $50.00

Here are the first two complaints I saw right away on BB reviews:

Worked fine for about 90 days then started showing "reading card" on start ups and suddenly NOTHING. From other reviews it appears to be a common problem with Samsung Galaxy phones. I have a S3 and Note II and the card no longer works on either. If you have the same combo and are coming up on 90 days, backup everything frequently and wait for "Sudden Death", other than that its a great value IF SanDisk PAYS YOU to use it. To be fair perhaps Samsung is part of the problem - but so far no one appears to be part of a solution.

This product has...

a good chance to lose all your data

***********************

I primarlly use it for my Galaxy Note 2. After 2 months, the phone says that the sd card was unexpectedly unmouted. Then my card was not recognized and blank. I could not reformat it in any way since my computer and any other devices can not recognize it.

After a successfull fix, 2 days later same thing happen and now I can not get it to work at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Nickel Dime Bay:
Yup exactly 90 days here, it would say the sd was removed and then it would read it every time i woke up the screen. Everyone in the thread says that the Samsung cards (any size) are the only ones that are having NO problems.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] william58:
OK, I took my Micro SD 32GB card back to Best Buy and talked to the head tech guy and he said he hasn't heard any problems at his store yet, but said it could be very possible as this was a newer card that is totally new and may have some bugs in it that is just now surfacing.

Said these below were much more reliable for the moment:

PNY Technologies - 32GB High Speed microSDHC Class 10 Memory Card

Sale: $29.99

I bought two for that price for my Samsung Galaxy Note II and Tab 2.

Hopefully no problems.

I work on Firefox OS for Mozilla.

Nexus 4 has been in the build environment for a while, but that's different than "officially supported". Some things do not work correctly and some bugs will never get fixed because the focus is on devices that will actually be productized.
[Firefox OS General] hp420:
I can understand that, but who's going to jump on-board when the only devices they can try the OS out on have bugs that, according to you, will never get fixed? If I were a rep for a hardware company who is checking out your OS, I came across bugs, and I got the response "we know and we have no intention of fixing that" it would be the last time you ever heard from me. And as an end user it is definitely the last time you or anyone else will hear from me in regards to this OS, if that's going to be the attitude towards those of us who worked so hard to test your firmware and report the thousands of bugs and help you guys fix them! I can't begin to explain how disappointed I am to hear such a negative answer from a member of the ffOS team.

I'm not trying to be rude...as I said, I can understand that projects which make the company money will be pushed ahead of those which don't. But when the business relies on these "prototypes" (if you can call them that) to sell their product to potential investors and hardware partners, then they'd better damn well operate 100% out of the gate. Nexus 4 was the main reference device for almost every project based on android for a full year, and it still is for many. The fact that ffOS has so many bugs on N4 and has no intention to fix them speaks MASSIVE VOLUMES about how serious Mozilla is about getting ffOS off the ground...I guess I'll focus my hope back to Ubuntu to offer me a nice android alternative, then :(
[Firefox OS General] autonome:
I know you're not trying to be rude :) Your questions and assumptions aren't really about Mozilla, more about how the mobile device ecosystem works. I'll try to clarify from what I know based on my experience shipping a new smartphone OS in an Android-focused ecosystem with multiple OEMs and carriers over the last two years.

That's not how the device manufacturers think. They're not thinking at all about any device they're not planning on manufacturing in volume. They also have very specific bugs that matter to them, which are very different than the kinds of bugs that you and I might be aghast at.

Please try to assume I'm a human, have the same concerns as you, and am only here on this forum because I also care about these things :D

I'm talking about how the mobile device ecosystem works - carriers, operators, chipset vendors, OEMs, ODMs, etc.

I'm not really talking about how I wish it all worked ;)

We're a mission-driven organization. Mozilla is focusing on projects which can get phones that allow choice and drive innovation into the hands of the next two billion people coming online.

Kinda not making that up. Those are the conversations we have when planning this stuff.

People and press often make assumptions about why we do what we do. No matter how many times we explain it, people will come up with all kinds of other explanations when they disagree with any part of anything that we do. Often we get more hated on than for-profit companies who've never even given lip-service to any kind of "make the world better" ideals! *shrug*

It really speaks no volumes at all.

That's just not how device companies work. In fact, take most of your preconceived notions and toss them out. I had to.

And really most devices don't "operate 100%" at all, ever. You have a bunch of issues known by all parties at each of the phases in a device lifecycle, from commercialization to IOT to TA. Each one is a negotiation, and a cost vs benefit analysis to determine whether to fix it or not.

I have searched and I've found no answers for this. I picked up my phone today and it was unresponsive. I pulled the battery to restart it, would get to the white HTC screen then nothing. Went to recovery TWRP 2.3.2.3 and was greeted with a long list of "E: unable to..." everything. Can't mount system, emmc, data etc. Cannot restore, cannot install, cannot wipe.

[HTC Rezound] bunchies:
I had this problem, I could only fix it by formatting the SD card in the stock rom. If everything is not working and you can't flash the ruu or get in your ROM, you can try factory reset in the bootloader and try a SD card wipe in the ROM after reset to fix the partition. I have only tested fixing the SD mounting issues with stock ROM SD card wiping

That's my idea. Hope I helped :thumbup:
