Thanks for your response. In order to view "Google Favorite Images", you have to log in to your Google account. Therefore, when I used Firefox, I had to log in to his Google account, with the same result. As you say, this seems to be a Google or Google account issue, not a browser issue. Safesearch is not enabled and Google displays adult content anyways. I don't know that this is related to a "Safesearch" type of setting or not, he just happens to have saved a lot of adult content in this manner.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
Go to system settings>Accounts>select their Google Account, on the next page select "Google Account". On the next page you should see their Google account info and avatar with a header just below it with tabs from left to right that say Home, Personal Info, Data&Privacy, Security, etc.. Select the "Security" tab, then scroll down until you see "Enhanced Safe Browsing for your account" and disable it.
[General Questions and Answers] rsngfrce:
Thanks, sounded like a good suggestion, but it was already disabled. It doesn't seem to be safesearch related to me, but is somehow related to the Google account, I think, but since you have to log in to Google to view the Favorite Images anyway, it could be a Favorite Images issue instead.
[General Questions and Answers] rsngfrce:
I was able to get more details from my friend. In Chrome, when he sees a photo he likes, he selects "Add to..." and then selects "Favorite Images". The page that is displaying MOSTLY generic thumbnails is the Google Favorite Images page. The generic thumbnails lead to valid images as far as I can tell.

Here is a poor quality example of the icon in the browser. I can't even find anything like it in a reverse image search. Maybe I should try contacting Google about this, I am unsure how responsive they are.

need some help with actions gs701b rooting problem not drivers or firmware prob

hi

this is my first post here after digging around for other threads with the same prob but everybody seems to have firmware/driver prob with this tablet.

my prob is trying to get root with adb,i've got the drivers installed correctlly and with adb it lets me push busybox and su superuser.apk is installed but when i start adb shell has a prompt $ i type su it dosen't prompt me for password and it keeps saying /system/bin/su: su not executable: magic 7F45.

now the weird thing is i've also tried some of the other programs one click root finds it so i know the drivers are installed then goes through all the steps to root it gets halfway throu to the last step and fails.

tried srsroot and it says it roots it just fine using root method 4 in srsroot {not sure what method 4 is} but it pushes busybox and su and mounts as -rw

reboots once back to the android animation press any key on cpu to continue process

reboots tablet again to no animation i wait for it to boot press any key on cpu it remounts as -ro and says i'm rooted.

i can then run one click root again and it also says i'm already rooted

on tablet i can open superuser and it doesn't crash but no apps are showing i also installed root check pro and it says busybox is installed correctly but under root tab says

root access is not properly configured or was not granted superuser application ver 3.0.7 is installed supersu app is not installed

system file properties for root access

standard location

check command: is -i/system/xbin/su:

result: -rwsr -sr -x root root 22364 2013-10-29 23:38 su

analysis setuid attribute present and root user ownership present.root access is correctly configured for this file!executing this file can grant root access!

root user id and group id status

su binary not found or not operating properly

system environment path /sbin /vendor/bin /system/sbin /system/bin /system/xbin /data/vendor/bin

abd shell default user

adb shell setting for standard access, stored in default.prop, is configured as: shell (non root) user - ro.

secure=1

i've rooted three tablets all coby kryos 1 mid7035 and 2 mid7048 so i kinda know a little and am getting better using adb shell

anymore info you need just let me know and any help would really be great

thanks in advance

Legacy apps on surface pro 2 - need USB to serial communication

Quickly searched the forum for possible answers to no avail, so here is this noob asking if anyone knows how to run an old 16bit app that requires com port communication. I would like to be able to communicate with a particular medical device connected via serial using the particular dos application that was designed to interface with the device. The application works fine under dos in windows xp, but now I have my surface pro and pro 2 (windows pro 8.1) which I would like to use in the same manner.

On my xp laptop, I connect a USB to serial adapter (like the 'Prolific PL23023 one'), then connect the medical device to said adapter and start the dos program. I ensure that the USB-serial adapter is using Com1. I have posted the same/similar question to the surface forms and also to the sourceforge sites (below) which appears to have a solution via DosBox. As my posts indicate (I am 'Northern'), my attempts to use and modify DosBox failed. Any suggestions? My current skill level with computers is what I would like to call an "amateur power-user" or "power-user wanna-be". In terms of programming skills....yeah well, none is about right...

Thanks for any suggestions and assistance!

My Xperia Arc S won't start properly

I've tried to install the Xperia Ultimate HD 5.0.1 ROM in my Xperia Arc S following the steps given in the first page:

For Unlocked Bootloaders: Flash any Kernel for stock ICS.

For Locked Bootloaders: Root your phone using this tutorial, than install CWM using this app

Place ROM on SD-Card

Back up user apps and data. (Various apps available, search Google Play. This is a popular one)

Power off phone.

Boot to CWM (Keep pressing the Volume Down key after the Sony logo appears)

Wipe Data/Factory Reset

Mounts and Storage --> Format /System

Advanced > Wipe Battery Stats

Install zip from SD card > Choose Xperia Ultimate HD

Follow on screen instructions on AROMA.

After Complete Installation untick "reboot" and select reboot in CWM

Give the phone a good full charge, and enjoy your brand new phone!

Everything seems to work OK, but after the installation, when I turn on my phone I only get a "Sony Ericsson" screen, and then nothing. The phone won't even turn off.

I've tried to go back to CWM as I did during the installation, but it doesn't seem to work. Also, I've tried Sony Ericsson Flash Tool, but my bootloader is locked, so it doesn't work either.

Now I'm having a look at adb documentation, as this guide suggests, but that will probably keep me busy for quite a while.

In the meantime I have a few questions:

1 - Does installing the ROM uninstall CWM?

2 - Do you know any other shortcut that I might want to try? It's hard to live without my phone :o

Thanks a lot!

I want to modify..
[General Questions and Answers] DiamondJohn:
Then, it isnt one language to learn. And WHAT you wish to modify will determine which.

Either way, you are going to need to start building. So start there and when you wish to modiffy something, you could then investigate what language the change will require coding. A lot of "modifications" are commonly bringing in code from another source and integrating into your source. ie you dont need as deep an ability to code in that (or ALL) languages.

To start making custom ROMs, start building. Basically, you are gooing to need to leaarn a little of a lot of languages,, but generally its Java for the majority of what people see as customizing ROMs.e

[General Questions and Answers] MassiveAtom:
I've been considering to purchase a secondhand Oneplus 7T, and the difference in price between a carrier locked and unlocked one is enough that I've been considering how I would unlock a locked device, but unable to find the info I need exactly. It seems to me that most of the locked OP 7Ts are from T-mobile, so I'll be focusing on that.

The steps on T-mobile's site says basically the following:

1. There are some eligibility requirements. If you haven't met them, you're out of luck (I assume I should then try my hands at one of the paid options locally to try it for me, but that costs enough that if it comes to that, I'd be better of just buying unlocked, and the fact that it's not something that's guaranteed to work makes this not an option it should come to).

2. If you meet the requirements, just go to `Settings > Wi-Fi & internet > SIM & network, then choose Advanced or Network Unlock` and select permanent unlock.

What I want to know is if I need to be connected to T-Mobile while doing so. If I purchase a locked device, and it arrives, can I just insert a sim from another carrier and do these steps? (I am from another country which doesn't have T-mobile, so that wouldn't be an option for me)

I __assume__ I can contact their customer support and try it via there, but what do you think my chances are of being able to do that, as a non-TMobile client?

Another thing I've considered is messaging the seller to see if they're willing to go to through the steps for me, and I'll throw in a bit extra money if they unlock it for me. For that to work, I do need to know if there are additional steps besides the 2 outlined above. Is it just those 2 things and some waiting?

From what I gather, seems that there are phones than can be unlocked and phones that cant be unlocked. Given the previous owner wants to sell the phone overseas, it's his duty to unlock the phone.

OK very new here....i read the posts and i have searched and have come up with nothing. Let me start by saying that i was screwed over by someone when getting this New Galaxy Z Flip 3 phone. Apparently from what i can gather is that this person did not send in a trade in device to samsung when purchasing a this Z flip from them. I found on their website that when you do a trade in device to get your new phone at a discounted price that if you don't send in that trade in, samsung reserves the right to remotely disable the new device that you bought (see attachments). Well now i have a locked phone and i cannot get it unlocked and i have called samsung and they will not do anything about it. I REALLY don't want to be out the money that i spent on this phone so i am hoping that there is a way to get around this by some sort of root or flash or something. And again I have searched everywhere and can't even find anything out on how to remove this lock or whatever it is.

Get stock rom, extract the boot image, patched it with magisk and see if you can flash it with mediatek flash tool.

What are you describing would imply that person has a way of seeing your phone screen. Did you left your phone unattended? See if you have some third party app you don't recognize. If you don't have root, beside the apps you have installed yourself, uninstall everything else. Without root access, you cannot uninstall a system app.
