[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Josh McGrath:
It should not because that is how it's done from the factory and the phone won't have any way to place a counter in memory as it is being written or written over. I am assuming it's hard bricked? But either way it shouldn't, and I don't see how it could.

---------- Post added at 01:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:11 AM ----------

I just read a little bit more on the knox memory. It depends on it if the jtag reprograms that memory as well. I don't own a note 3 but as said, jtag is how everything is flashed when it's assembled so I don't know how it could trip the counter unless it's a separate board or doesn't program that particular chip. Think about it though, the phone has to be programmed to "talk" to the knox chip in the first place so the jtag should clear that as well.

But I'm just basing this on programming in general without knowing the chip though. If someone's worried about getting out of warranty charge, I would just brick it by flashing a Rom that will not even let it turn on. I did that on my sprint s3.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p1r4t3:
cheers.

That's what I was assuming as well.

It looks like I need to buy a jtag-er (learn how to use it) and push su to get root (big assumption: that's all that is required).

Has anyone attempted this before I go and buy the stuff and spend copious amounts of hours learning how to do it? (Not being lazy, I just don't want to reinvent the wheel)...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] p1r4t3:
Would anyone else be able to confirm that jtag will not trip the knox tag?

It would be nice to know if rooting or putting a custom rom via jtag does not trip the knox tag.

Also, what if the knox tag could be reset via jtag.

If you have any useful info please reply.

Thank you.

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OkcThunder:
I flashed the att boot image to get twrp recovery using flashify. It worked great but now my question is if I delete flashify will it get rid of my twrp recovery? Since I now use quick boot that came with clean Rom xe 1.1 Also is the backup that I did in twrp or flashify. Sorry for the noob question but I appreciate the help greatly.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antawnm26:
YOU should be fine....
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sacrosaint:
Flashify just writes the partition. The backup was in TWRP. To confirm, check /sdcard/TWRP/Backups/ to find your backup. You can safely delete Flashify and use whatever means you'd like to boot into recovery.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pfshens:
Deleting Flashify shouldn't cause any problems for TWRP.

Hi guys have a htc desire and was updating, and when I go to turn it on it does not come out of the initial image "HTC" hboot already tried without success!

Someone can help me?

thank you
[Desire General] Chromium:
So hboot (volume down + power) not working? What about fastboot (power + back)? If that doesn't work take the battery out of the phone and put it in the freezer for 10 minutes. Then remove it from the freezer, quickly reinsert the battery and boot it up. If it boots up it likely indicates that your motherboard has an overheating problem.

I would like to stress that this isnt a knock on any existing programs, nor do I expect anyone to change what they are doing who isn't willing to.

If you hate the idea of this, please continue doing what you are doing.

This is for people who want to join or participate because these are the apps they would prefer to use, or make.

Also:

- An app must have an option to turn off Automatic updates, and may not self-check for updates otherwise.

- All Settings a User sets must be permanent and may not be reset nor shall those permission requests for updates, etc, be altered or changed nor be made to reappear, nor require the user to specify the same setting more than once.

- No app shall ever contact its servers for anything other than a user-launched request for the specific function required by the user at the time of the request.

- No app nor server nor company shall in any way interact with its apps or servers in anyway other than to execute the exact function called for by the user according to the UI meaning and implicit intent of the action

[Android General] robneymcplum:
I like the idea of this, and from what youre saying and a few apps I use would fall into this category just fine IF certain things were moved into the 'about' option. How or why a dev would change their current, 100% working fine app, to modify this I dont know.
[Android General] chinarabbit:
Great Idea!

- An App must have a complete Version History contained in the About Menu Settings, or a Menu Item Devoted to Version History, with Detailed explanations as to why the changes were added, and if they are only to fix a bug with device x, why is it recommended to install it if you arent using that device

- Each App Update should be available as a complete App Stand-Alone APK installer, or installable from the Play Store Directly. No App should require Updates, nor provide updates for which there is no Standalone APK or an updated Google Play Installation.

alot of devs set up their apps just good enough to get on Google play, without getting kicked off, and then after you install it, they update the app with functions & behaviors that would get it kicked from the Play Store.

great work catching that one, thanks

-
[Android General] chinarabbit:
If you know of any solid apps that you believe fall into this category, or easily could, please post them here

We need a list of example apps that we feel embody the spirit of honesty, transparency, user-centric programming & packaging, and which are either made in the spirit of true freeware, or made in the spirit of goodwill, and have either Benefitware or Trialware which adheres to consumer-oriented needs & interests

The following behaviors DO NOT qualify for inclusion in the Guild:

- Any app which appears desperate to flash things in front of your face, particularly things which flash or change scenes or color rapidly, change in a single frame, or less than a 1 second cross-dissolve, and which are overly animated, bothersome, annoying, or which may lead to epileptic reactions, which cannot be permanently closed or disabled for the duration of the session.

- Any app which appears to desperately or urgently present users with matters of no immediate significance or importance to the user. This includes the pestering need for ratings, requests for financial assistance, downloading of the developers other apps or partner apps, offers to visit the Play store or any other external website, etc..

- Any Benefit-ware app with any full-screen advertisement at all, from Internal or external sources used to promote the sales, use, or downloading of its own other products & services or those of an external company

- Any Benefitware which does not allow you to close a bar-style advertisement with a clear, easily-accessed, and adequately-sized close button

- Any Benefitware which re-opens an ad which has been closed within the same 24-hour period, or since reboot.

- Any Trialware which limits functionality of its products to a state inconsistent with the primary function of the app

- Any Trialware which does not allow a minimum 30-day trial period

- Any Trialware which limits the functions within its trial period in any way

- Any Trialware which doesnt openly allow a re-installation of a Trial package on fresh uninstall/reinstall

A user is to be given as much time as is required for him/her to fully evaluate the product. Often times a user may begin a 30-day trial period, only to never have the time to use it, including having no time to even look through it the day it was installed

Furthermore, All apps containing promotions of their own products are to be classified as Benefitware, and not Freeware, even if there are no ads from external advertising companies.

Feel free to add to this list, or to add an app you believe warrants inclusion for its programming efforts, ethics, & merits

-
[Android General] chinarabbit:
A similar Evaluation Period problem arises when users are given a 30-time evaluation. As one "Evaluation" day is simply a 24-hour period since the app was launched.

Launching the app by accident, or launching the app and immediately closing it, removes evaluation days from your trial, days in which no evaluating took place.

Even if we give each launch a time-specific interval where an app which is running for 10 or 15 minutes is considered "Evaluated" for one day, it doesnt take into account that launching the app then closing it where it sits opened in the background still takes away your evaluation days, or opening it, then answering the door or going to grab a sandwich also takes from your evaluation period

We could find other solutions to this problem, but one of the primary characteristics for an app or developer to be included in the Guild is to treat the user as if they were a guest in an actual store, and not a criminal pirate on a baby-killing spree, meaning:

- No app or developer should treat a user like a criminal, nor assume he is engaging or will engage in criminal activity, nor accuse him of such activities, nor behave in a manner which displays mistrust or accusations of users

- An app & developer must leave it to fate, heaven, and the common goodwill of mankind to have its requests & guidelines (such as for trials, etc) met, and can in no way behave in a manner which is inconsistent with good will

- All agreements made will be made in Good Faith with the community at large

you wont walk into a department store and be tackled by the security guards and forced to pay for something you didnt even try on, simply because you touched in on the rack, or be banned from the store for life until you do pay for it.. simply because the paranoid psychotic lunatic in charge of the store thinks everybody who walks into his store is a dirt-poor crack-head criminal out to steal his supremely precious goods

-
[Android General] chinarabbit:
Also:

- An app is not to be created for the sole intention of Data Collection or Information Gathering, and apps which appear to do so will be blacklisted

- An app is not to be developed or created for the primary purpose of spreading advertising spam, shady promotions, other sites & services, etc, and any app found to be out of balance with respect to this criteria will be blacklisted

- Any app found to be in breech of any of the guidelines shall be blacklisted. Concerned Members could write a letter to the developer instructing them on the things they could change for inclusion in the Guild, if they so choose

- No app shall include advertisements or links of/to any shady or malicious programs or websites, including phishing sites, spoof sites, porn sites, or any site which executes malicious code or scripts, or which is deemed as an unhealthy website, program, or service by the world-wide community of web experts as a whole

- Any app or developer found in severe breech of the spirit of the Guild will be banned for life. Severe offenses include things such as falsifying information, deception, betrayal, lying, perpetuating viruses/malware or web-based attacks, hacks or intrusions, or stealing private information & personal data; the gathering of personal data for uses unspecific to the service or which willfully compromise the security & privacy of users; or if an app or developer is found to be using the information & data of users in a way which destroys the Integrity & Trustworthiness of the app & developer, and undermines, corrupts, corrodes, or destroys the Trust & Faith the community has put in the app & developer

[Android General] robneymcplum:
I use zeam launcher, that definetely qualifies.
[Android General] chinarabbit:
Cool, thanks

It seems its not under development anymore.

Perhaps a goal of the Organization can be to encourage, promote, or reward excellence in Programming as well..

It may help to motivate devs who've grown disassociated or whos apps may not be getting the attention they deserve.

I currently use Lightning Launcher, and I would definitely say it qualifies as well. It has the most features of any launcher I've tested, and one of the smallest foot prints as well.. its fast and minimalistic, and completely free, and never bothers you about anything.. it has more features than you'd expect from any high-priced app.. if it has additional paid options I dont even know, as the app is extremely feature rich and has all the functions you could ever want, and many more you havent even thought up yet

These kinds of apps make using Android Phones worthwhile

-
[Android General] chinarabbit:
I think we've already narrowed the list of qualifying software to less than what's available for Windows Phone

-
[Android General] chinarabbit:
A qualifying app must also have the ability to retain full functionality after an Android OS reinstall.. meaning a portable install or an install which can use existing files found in File System Root/data/data without errors when reinstalling the app

No developer shall make any requests for donations or monetary compensation of any kind, who has included in his app any form of advertising or which has been given any permissions pertaining to user data & usage information

No App shall require specific permissions for advertisements or promotions.

No in-app advertisement shall require any special permissions or access whatsoever.

No advertisement or information gathering function shall piggyback on other functions requiring access or permissions, nor shall any advertisement or information gathering function utilize access or permissions granted to the app for its core, non-advertising, non-data collecting, non-marketing functions

Hey guys can I change the home.apk in Enigma v6.1 so the the app tray size is 5x4 in stead of 5x5. And so there are only 4 spots for app icons or folders next to the menu icon. I've tried to change the home.apk several times, each time it resulted in the disappearance of the status bar, notifications of the system UI crashing, setting crashing when trying to open the tab apps. So I had to completely reflash Enigma 6 times.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] alaskan_rainbow_trout:
If you have to push ANY button it isn't "hands free". I'd very much like to be able to wake my brand new Galaxy S4 with just a voice command while driving. Once woken I'd like to open and use S Voice with just voice commands. I'm not COMPLETELY dim. I've managed to build a few computers from parts and passed a bunch of tests that granted me the privilege of putting some fancy letters after my name. But I confess I never thought I'd have to learn how to use a telephone again once I turned 63 years of age. Nor learn to drive. I SWEAR that toilet paper display would have fallen even if I'd not tapped it with my electric geezer mobile. I tried several of those Blue Tooth devices that you put on your visor, but they didn't get it done. Next I replaced my ancient Subaru Outbacks stereo with a new Sony that has Blue Tooth Capabilities, bought an iBolt dock to stick onto my dash to hold the phone, and sometime next week will have four speakers installed to rectify the fact my left drivers door speaker and my right rear passenger speaker were nonfunctional.

But STILL had to push a button to wake the phone up, before trying to speak both clearly and loud enough to overcome the noise level in my 185,000 mile Alaskan Subaru and hope S Voice's voice recognition would work.

I saw an application called Tasker and one called AutoVoice and without looking into the complexity involved bought them. Oops...

I'd like to be able to stick the Galaxy S4 into the fancy (And KickAss) iBolt, start my car, and be able to turn the phone on with a voice command, and then use the S Voice feature built into the device to call my Geriatrician.

So I'd appreciate any help y'all might condescend to supply. From lurking about I do believe this Forum is the Mount Olympus where the Android God's and Goddesse's dwell.

You must be on ICS to flash that custom ROM; you can't just install it over GB. That is what the tutorial is for...to install ICS and then the ROM.

[Asus Transformer TF700] LetMeKnow:
It is a nice detail instruction for new users like me. I really like it a lot and I can use some information from your post for my system2sd... :) However, maybe I misread your post. I don't see any information about repack the blob when you are done modifying the fstab.cardhu. I know a little bit of ramdisk and can get around it but that information will help the first time users... Just my opinion and thanks for sharing a valuable information to us...;)
[Asus Transformer TF700] _that:
That's because you don't need to repack the blob or reflash the kernel - I wanted to simplify the procedure, so I added preinit support to the kernel's ramdisk a few months ago. You just put some files in /system/boot and the kernel will run your preinit script that modifies the ramdisk at boot time.

Just remember that if you reflash your internal ROM, you have to recreate the /system/boot stuff.
