[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gomatrixor06:
hello,

I stole my gt n7000, he was protecting by pin. (simcard and phone)

The thief did that was back in recovery mode or download to reset the settings.

It would be interesting to be able to protect the download mode and recovery, a password or a PIN code for the phone is That a brick.

(minimum 6 digits for real security )

there is an application to do this?

I think rather a kernel with this option.

next month I will buy the galaxy note 2, and I am very happy to have a phone that turns into a brick if it gets stolen again!

I'm ok to take the risk of losing the pin code (if I get amnesia) and not being able to use my phone, but it's so unlikely that it happens!

so many people could do this, there would be less robber smartphone ...

I'm right when I say that.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] little-vince:
omg wat. gaiz we have have a thief here.

jk.

I think I get what you're trying to say.

Pretty sure I've actually searched this up before cuz I've also thought about how much more safer it would be to have pin protected recovery.

Similar to how you can password protect your computers bios to stop people from booting from usb/cd etc.

But the search results were basically like:

"It's not worth it."

"It's still pretty easy to circumvent etc."

and the typical "If you want something, make it yourself." response.

So yea.

Unfortunately no kernel (that I know of) supports this.

I know that in France people take knives to hit a smartphone, it would be better for everyone that manufacturers include this option directly on any smartphone.

I think that must be an online petition.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhinav quietly brilliant:
I too thought of this several time but nothing can be done anyone can wipe the phone after stealing it and use it normally
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lionelia:
It doesn't happen so often in France because a stolen phone can be blacklisted by french operators database (imei blacklist).

A good way would be a worldwide blacklist of stolen phones.

International roaming is possible, so I think international blacklist would be possible.

[HTC Droid DNA] motoxshreddin12:
I had a custom rom on my phone and i wanted to flash a new one so i did a system wipe from TWRP and now i have nothing on my phone besides TWRP.

I can still get into recovery mode and into the bootloader, so i was wondering if there was any way to flash a rom to my phone without downloading the zip to my phone?

I thought there was a way to completely flash it through fastboot but i cannot figure it out.

is my phone bricked or is there any way to put a rom on it?

ANY support would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, Garrett

Thank you, it's a great app indeed, just what i been looking for.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] gorinrockbow:
I don't know if it's available on every rom, but in CM9, there is an option in Settings -> Display -> Status Led (something like that, my phone is in French). There you can choose how the LED Bar reacts for every application on your phone. I find it easier and lighter than the softs available on Play Store.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Illionaire:
Hello,

Since flashing most recent ROM, I have noticed 5 "Google" purchases, for Apps and 1 other unknown Google charge. These apps, etc. are not familiar to me, nor have any relevance to any past purchased apps or recent app searches in Play.

I have reason to believe it's directly related to the ROM, as there is particular identifying information included in the statement.

I'll be doing the obvious, filing a claim, yada yada bullshi*.

Has anyone else had this happen? Not cool.

Thanks,

[Sprint LG Optimus G] outerpip:
What charges?
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Illionaire:
Hey Epic,

To be honest I've seen surprising things in account data for both Lifeless and CM. I've noticed new card numbers, etc. After flashing. I paid no mind thinking it may have been a devs card number somehow merging with my account, and quickly deleted. However, it may be a Google account hack.

Either way, it may be something to confirm, if this type of information is capable of spreading accidentally in development.

Google Play charges. And one dev name/build number charged to my account. That part is kind of a mystery, and now I'm Paranoid. Shame.. :screwy:

Definitely check on it... Haven't heard of anything like it happening. Change your password and the usual stuff. I can pretty confidently say that all our ROM devs are awesome people and would never do anything like that.

you havent posted your EFS anywhere online have you? If your efs falls into the wrong hands people can "clone your phone" and make purchases... altho those would be carrier purchases and I believe are charged to your monthly bill.

[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] absinto10:
Hello forum,

Not sure where to post this, but since the issue occured on my tf300t, i'll just procede with the post making whhoop whoop xD

In first place I've tried every browser out there, and uc it's definitly the browser that serves my daily needs, but it still as some problems...

When I write on a textbox, comment section on fb for example, the keyboard pops up but the browser doesn't go up or resizes... Well this is a huge problem because the keyboard just covers the text areas and I can't really see what I'm writting.

The second problem is, now with the new update, a damn button (ughhh so annoiyng) appers every time when I go to youtube, the button functionality is to see videos offline... This button in the lower right section of the screen just blocks the youtube options(720p etc) and I cant change this options or resize the damn window because this btn is on front... :'(

Im running the cm 10.1 nightlies with perf kernel, standard keyboard from this rom

Thank u very much for your time and if it's not possible to fix this please sugest alternative browsers :)

Best regards,

Absinto10

I have a nexus 7 and was able to get a Dual Boot installed which was able to let me keep android o/s and also install the ubuntu o/s.

Yeah the screen is way too small on the nexus 7 but wanted to try it and see if it could be done.

Now I want to get this TPT to do the same think being that it has a larger screen and the folio kb with it.

Don't forget to download the bootloader on the second post of that thread. Flash it via recovery as well.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AcquiredIntellect:
You must be using an HTC device if you have to relock which you have to do to get the OTA update you cannot flash it without relocking your bootloader. You would have to flash a custom 4.2.2 ROM to keep your phone unlocked and your phone allowing it to flash properly. Otherwise you must relock then flash the ota update then unlock and root again. You will have to wipe it and reset when you flash the custom rom. Just make a nandroid before you do anything.

[Galaxy S 4 General] -]Megacharge[-:
The rounded edges, and the materials. Ugly and cheapish looking to me, lack of FM Radio (although I've heard this can be remedied with an app called spirit) and lack of dual front facing speakers, I would prefer an SLCD3 screen over the SAMOLED that's used in it (my preference). Other than that, I think it's a great phone.

EDIT: oh just one thing. I pick a lack of dual front facing speakers. It's something I've been waiting for on cell phones for a while now, and I expected Samsung to have implemented this into their galaxy line already.

How do I get rid of this " virus " ? I remember this happening a couple of times in the past. I had to download an unsubscribe app, and then run the app to stop this crap. But I can't remember where I got the app from.
