Closing this service

Dear All

I'm closing this service, moving to GT3 P5220.

There'll be a last build patch probably on week-end for P31xx's.

Would anyone be willing to take this task over? Please drop a message in here of PM me.

Kindest regards - Chris

What is the difference between the capabilities of pdroid and the privacy guard / app ops service that is already built into cm11?

Edit: could you please post a unified diff of your pdroid patch so I can try building with it?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Christoph21x:
Hey Tsjoklat - thanks for your question. A good point: I'll prepare a comparison table of the basical 3 "protection methods" available for Android Devices - I guess there are more people being interested in this - and maybe helping/correcting me.

For the matter of building a patch: not a charm - there's a tool for it; maybe somewhat crazy in setting it up, but from then on, it's simple - and I'll assist of course.

Gimme ome hours to set up the comparison pls.

Rough Comparison of Privacy Protection Methods

Dear Tsjoklat

Dear All

I was asked this a couple of times - please find a short comparison of the three major "basic provacy protection methods" for Android devices. This will be probbly far from being complete, I appreciate any comment / addition and correction; maybe we can set up a real complete list for all users - beyond this thread.

Basically we can find three basic methods for "privacy protection":

Andoid built-in privacy protection (/Settings/Appa/activate it per app)

Third-party applications like "XPosed privacy module" and others

Pdroid / OpenPDroid privacy protection

They all work a bit differently - I'll try to give an overview especially of the differences of their approaches.

Please see attached jpeg - I tried to keep it short & tidy.

Please... open discussion about this! Tell me all about your thoughts. I'm NOT a specialist in all details...

Greetz from Switzerland - Chris

EDIT: pls. don't misunderstand me: I'm using XPosed privacy protection too, now that I'm on a non-patchable development path with my new device; for me it's far better (especially as it's open source) than trusting a dictator that is promising democracy within his politics. Between the two open source solutions, it's rather a matter of access opportunities unless you don't flash...
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Tsjoklat:
I have noticed that some of the options in the chart you posted for the built in android privacy protection (privacy guard) are not up to date. Several new options have been recently added to App Ops:

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/9c0bcdacce4c6d0d64d6fcf29f108290557492b7

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/ba21122d80aad4abe870f6e9c420146e9af0a6ed

https://github.com/CyanogenMod/andr...mmit/d01dae35568c6e9619c462c0a4133728bd1f3fc6

Also, control of WiFi status, Bluetooth, sound recording and the camera are also now available in App Ops.

Edit: why do you say privacy control in cm11 is not open source? It seems like it is open.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Christoph21x:
Hey - thanks!

Could you name me line/column to be corrected please?

Maybe adding additional lines?

I'll immediately update the table
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Christoph21x:
Are we talking of the same things?

I'm talking about Google Privacy Protection which is definitively NOT open source.

If you're talking about sth. else, this may belong into second column? (third-party apps)
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Tsjoklat:
These are in App Ops now:

Network locations

Audio recording

Use camera

WiFi info

WiFi change status

I also noticed test App Ops has a few that the rest don't like Bluetooth control.
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Christoph21x:
Updated above table - could you please re-check it?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Tsjoklat:
Android Privacy Guard is also open source.

Edit: here is a link to the souce code: https://github.com/search?q=appops&ref=cmdform
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Christoph21x:
I doubt but ok.

But this all was OT - brings me back to my question: anyone who would like to take over this service?
[Galaxy Tab 2 7" Android Development] Christoph21x:

[General Questions and Answers] techoverload:
Ok, so I am a hardware guy not software.

I have all the hardware put together to run a I777 without a battery.

I can get the phone to boot all the way to the home screen, Then within a couple seconds I get the 0% battery warning after which the phone shuts itself back off.

After some research I found someone reference:

services/java/com/android/server/BatteryService.java in android_frameworks_base

I attempted to do a adb pull of systemui.apk

After much frustration of adb not working correctly I could open the adb shell if the phone was connected, I could type the su command and the phone displayed the confirmation that shell had been granted su, but then I could go no further adb devices showed nothing connected, 1 billion driver reinstalls, computer and phone restarts later, I finally got the phone to connect using MyPhoneExplorer program.......

So I get the sustemui.apk and attempt to use a couple different windows based decompilers (again I am hardware not software) and that is where I am currently stuck.

I have spent countless hours on this now and would much rather just offer a reward to someone to get this fixed.

So here is the offer.

$25 if you can change whatever needs to be changed so the phone will not shut off even though no battery is connected, thus the battery level will always report 0%

As noted above, I think it is just the one small piece of code needs to be changed, recompiled and put back on my phone. However, it may go deeper than that as I have found nobody that has actually done this complete, several threads here and elsewhere of people asking but they are usually only a couple posts in a thread then nothing.

I can pull and send whatever files are needed to be changed, if it becomes massively time consuming I may be willing to renegotiate payment, but I think for someone who knows what they are doing this should be fairly quick.

Hit me up with a PM and we will get some direct communication going, skype, google talk etc lets get this going.......

PS, I can pay with either paypal, or if you prefer something else like a amazon gift card, google play credit etc.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] ncwildcat:
I wonder if they will push 4.2.2 faster now that the flaw is out in the open.. Or maybe even 4.3 lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] zerofighter1:
This is an interesting thought. One can only hope. Does such code exist at the OS level where it would require an OTA to implement? If so that's going to be a nightmare for carriers, and a huge tarnish on Android's reputation as a whole - at least to those aware of the issue.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] craigbailey1986:
I doubt it tarnishes android as this was reported on 1 weeks ago. And it was about a security flaw when downloading 3rd party apk's not found in the market.

I also believe Google wanted this to happen because about a month ago they were saying how they would be outing software security issues to the public from other companies assuming it will force the other company to fix the security flaw sooner than later.... Given how fast they fixed this "huge" security hole in their own software so fast... They can now say see we fixed our issue this fast and it was "huge"... so can you ... Smart move if you ask me...

[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
I first preordered this back when it was introduced at CES this year. I loved how it propped the N4 up and I longed for one like this. I know LG has one but can only be bought in Korea for an outrageous $130 bux on fleabay.

Months later, Tylt said it was cancelling all the pre orders and people like me were a bit disappointed. Keep in mind this was a little before the orb. So then the Orb came up and most of us grabbed it up like Charlie at the Chocolate factory, but some were met with the sliding issue. That officially sucked! I personally did not experience it, but it sucks that this stuff happens.

Come 7 months or so later, Tylt came back and released a Kickstarter. Earlybirds were to get the new Tylt VU in August according to KS. So I joined in on the 49 dollar level because the 39 level was snapped up. I got an email from Tylt a few days later stating that because I was a pre-order, they will grant me the Tylt at the KS earlybird price. AWESOMESAUCE! I immediately cancelled my pledge lol. Paid for the Tylt on July 2nd and got it today, 7/9 (surprisingly fast!) at work.

I excitedly posted a few quick pics on a thread but I wanted to give a quick take on it so far, that I have had time to use it a bit.

Attached you can see that the N4 is still charging in any orientation you want, which is cool. There is a LED to let you know the status of the charger under the front lip. You cant really see it unless you literally look at it straight on, which is also good; it's not BRIGHT like other QI pads I have used and heard about. Additionally, there's NO audible beep or anything from the stand. Just your phone if you have the OGG file on your phone (when less than 95% of course).

Will it continually charge when it reaches 100%? Looks like it keeps it topped off and then stops charging but according to my widgits, the phone does report it "charging" even though the settings say otherwise. This doesn't mean it's totally off and not charging, it trickle charges back up like the orb does in my case.

Like you see in the pics, I got the boring black lol. The build quality is nice. It is quite big for a charger, but it's going to be on my night stand lol. Would I recommend it? For my price of 39bux YES. For 70 bux it'd be a hard sell for me. It's not necessarily travel worthy like the LG pad or even the Energizer one. They are flat, while this is not.

Anyways here are the pics. Any questions please feel free to ask!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] frigidazzi:
Did you get an email or something saying it shipped?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Negative. I actually never got to check back on tylt.com to check for any tracking numbers. By the time I was thinking to do so, it showed up on my desk.

Go here and get your order number and billing zip code and you can get a tracking number here if it shipped. I actually ordered on 7/2 and got it yesterday 7/9. With July 4 thrown in for a holiday, I really didn't expect it so fast!

http://shop.tylt.com/mas_my_shipments.asp
[Nexus 4 Accessories] frigidazzi:
Oh so you didn't officially kick start it when all was said and done, right? I was wondering how you got an order number lol. I guess I am left waiting from KS. Damn you! I have been waiting for this since the beg of the year too haha.

It looks great!!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Noooo...I initially did, but at the 49 early bird. But because I was initially a pre-order on their site, they extended the 39 early bird price to me, which I accepted! And in turn, cancelled my pledge on KS lol. Then was told that the charger would ship within two weeks, which turned out to be three days. :good:

I mean, getting it way before the Kickstarters (kinda weird) and saving 10 bux in my case. Right place and right time I guess.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
OK reporting back on a couple of days of usage and have to say it's great. I may have to eat my hat a little and say that it may be worth the cash after all:o because, the usage is great, props my phone up so I can quickly glance in the room to see if there's a notification I have missed if I am not wearing my Pebble, and quickly see who's calling. Not to mention the ability to just grab and drop my phone on it willy-lilly lol. No fuss no muss, no aligning it in anyway.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] khronostn:
This looks great! Wish I had seen it while it was cheaper. If I hadn't just switched jobs, this would be on the way to my house.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] digitallysick:
Its expensive, though i think its the best qi charger out there. I want one! I hope they put them on amazon or offer some other ways to buy them
[Nexus 4 Accessories] frigidazzi:

[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:

[Nexus 4 Accessories] pert_S:
I'm sure it will work with the Flo, right?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Er...what's Flo? Oh the new N7? I would assume so.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] lrdm:
I'm pretty happy with mine. It does seem to charge a bit slower and it is noticeably warmer (charging while in TPU case) but likely nothing to worry about. I wouldn't leave open anything intensive while it's charging for prolonged periods though, as the charge rate would be very slow and the device would heat up.

The stand does like to slide around on my desk though. Any thoughts on better securing it?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] kpjimmy:
Mine charges pretty fast. It charges slower when the device is below 30% and charges and gets the phone pretty warm. Sometimes I need to reboot to let it go again. I never have to do that with my orb charger though.

As for securing it. You can try adding some rubber feet on the contact points. You can probably get them at a craft store or even home depot. Some self adhesive stubs. Or you can put a rubber mousepad and set it on top of that lol.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] MorphiousGX:
I think I got the answer for you!!!

http://www.tylt.com/faq/#vu

Q: How long does it take to charge my phone with the VU?

A: The VU is designed to provide as much power as your standard USB charger (1 Amp) and will charge as fast as your USB charger as long as your phone is designed to accept that much power.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Psykar:
Can you give us a photo of the power adapter (the end that plugs in to the VU itself)?

I'm curious if it's a generic one you could get your own adapter for.

I've just ordered one to be shipped to Aus, and would ideally like to avoid the need for an international adapter =)

Hi all! Been reading for for about a month. Sites saved my life about 5 times now, but have a few questions i couldn't find, so hoping someone could point me in the right direction! :wink:

I'm using a XDAiis. Less than a month old. Removed that o2 icon and stability is up 110%. I use the WiFi allot in my home, but as a Network engineer by trade, would like to see and perhaps change my Ip address and other settings and so forth. Is their any FREE 3rd party apps, or perhaps a Pocket PC Version on command prompt?

Also, i've seen a few people mentioning using active sync over the WiFi. couldn't find a thread explaining how to do this, as i can't seem to work it out :?: (Must be doing something wrong :wink: )

And lastly, are their any sites where i can download dialer skins? As all i have at the moment is the o2 and Windows defaults.

Thanks in advance to anyone who read this!...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SqueezeAndRun:
I absolutely love using AOSP ROMs. The experience is much smother, faster, and just plain prettier than the TouchWiz alternative. Unfortunately, when I use AOSP ROMs the screen battery usage is much much higher, and it absolutely destroys the battery. Normally, using TW, the battery usage sits around 30-35% depending on the day. For AOSP its almost always far over 50% regardless of usage. In both cases I have the phone set to auto brightness. The only real difference is that I use power saving mode on TW. I don't feel like there would be that large of a difference based just on that. On TW ROMs I'll get anywhere from 10-14 hours of battery life, but with AOSP I only get around 7-9. To add to the issue, the cell service and data speeds are noticeably worse on AOSP ROMs. I generally get 1 or 2 bars less of signal than on TW ROMs in any given area. I really want to switch to AOSP as my daily driver, but these issues just make it not all too possible. I don't have any specific data I've collected or screenshots to back it up, but I've flashed countless TW and AOSP ROMs on my phone, and it's always been the same. I'm 100% sure that it's not just all in my head or anything. If anyone could provide any help or at least say if they've had similar problems I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jmxc23:
Well I hate to break it to you but signal strength is an issue regardless of which AOSP rom you use. As for battery life there are apps for that like Lux for auto brightness and DS Battery Saver for increased battery life. There are others but I can't mention them all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SqueezeAndRun:
Thanks man. So I guess it looks like I have to just make a choice between which things are more important.
