Rumrunner worked for me
[HTC One S] damienMTL:
Rum runners worked for me as well.

UNLOCK HTC ONE S stock bootloader with htcdev.com

root the htc one s

install cyanogen mod 11 KIT KAT 4.4.4 instead of the locked HTC stock rom

in CM 11 unlock the screen etc as required.

in CM11 allow root modification for both adb and apps (developers options)

set adb on the phone (developers options) via usb and IP

install rum runners and follow all the requirements (antivirus off, firewall off)

!!!Kill all adb process in the DOS Command before launching rumrunners!!!

run rum runners

everytime your phone launch the OS unlock the SIM or it won't work

after 3 tries it worked (sanitizing etc...)

S-OFF successful

you can then Set your phone to CID 11111111

avoid unlocking the bootloader with htcdev again adter CID11111111, it's already unlocked

install hboot 2.16, TWRP2.8 and your favorite updated ROM like LineageOS14.1
[HTC One S] miniminus:
got rumrunners to work on mine (hboot of 2.15) in the end !...

first htcdev unlocked (via token to your email etc etc and flashtool commands on htcs site)

then installed twrp 3, again folowwed twrp steps in flashtool,

then flashed superSU v2.79 in twrp (via trasnfering to phone, and installing via zip) to get root (you dont need Toolkit, or permroot !!! )

then once rebooted normally, in superSU app thats now in app draw, put 'default access' to grant in settings (if not in rumrunners you get [TTTTT*****] and not _____ )

Finally worked for me second try, HTC One S Tmobile, S4 processor on 2.15. Need to install busybox by flashing through recovery, there is one you can google packaged with SU as well. I did NOT flash a custom recovery, instead booted TWRP via the img in Fastboot and flashed the Busybox/SU zip, then ran rumrunner.

I was running Stock 4.4. Once I flashed CyanogenMod 13, I was able to S-Off with RumRunner. You have to flash the boot.img when you don't have S-Off, but there are plenty of guides on how to do that.

if you are a call of duty fan you certainly will like this animation i created it from here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZfMwJNH_2yM

this is bootanimation.zip you all you have to do is:

1-install it with this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simproductions.bachanger&hl=en

2-(optional) i set its resolution at 720p so if your screen is smaller its recommended that to change its resolution

and if your device is 1080p you wouldn't get full screen unless you change it too

Is there any way to attempt to make the recovery harder? Something that can overwrite the whole userdata and system partition with 0 or any other pattern?

A factory reset done from the android menus (if you have stock recovery) will wipe everything you put on the device (except system apps).

I want only to know if my data is securely deleted. A zero fill makes impossible the recovery without special equipment. So if the android factory reset does also a zero fill I can sell my phone or rma it without privacy issues :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] premo15:
A factory reset doesn't go through and obscure the data like that. It removes the table of contents so the files aren't visible to the file system, but the data is still there (as you know). I actually just went through this with my previous phone before I sold it. I formatted all partitions with twrp and also formatted internal storage in Windows but a couple of free recovery programs were still able to find some deleted files.

I just ended up copying my entire music library over to fill up the partition so all blocks were overwritten. After that, the programs weren't able to recover anything. Not very high tech, but effective. You could even make a couple of passes if you want to be extra sure.

[General Questions and Answers] marwinx:
Hello guys, Im sorry if this thread is already here somewhere but I didnt manage to find any info about this one.

Basically I've just bought a new phone (Xperia SP) and one of the very few things I actually dont like or miss here is the HTC Sense settings features when it comes to incoming/outcoming calls and their controlling just by moving the phone around. I was very used to that and loved it with my good old HTC Desire, may it rest in piece.

I havent managed to find any app for that on market, which could be aswell caused by the fact that English is not my native language and I dont really know which keywords should I use to find such app.

In case u know some apps that can do such things Id like just to point out the main functions that Id like to get on my Xperia:

- first of all Id like my display to lock temporarily as soon as I reach my ear with the phone when I pick up a call, to prevent unintended actionc caused by my troll ear.

- the feature that lowered ringtone's volume to minimum when u picked the phone from a table or just turned it upside-down.

- and finally the feature that allowed u to quickly turn on loudspeaker just by turning the phone upside-down after answering the call.

- +the pocket mode would be nice as well but I can live without that one.

Thank you in advance for any app-tips <3

i bought a used 16gb n7 back in june for $150,seemed like a good price at the time. i'd aim for at least $80 on craigslist if i wanted to sell it. i'll be using this tablet for a while though,see no reason to upgrade yet tho it is kinda laggy after 4.4 update.

[Off-topic] triscleeire:
I have seen a few references to ebay on this and other media.

The basic idea behind ebay is great and it started off brilliantly with people selling used or unwanted stuff to other people looking for exactly that stuff.

In the meantime most of the stuff you find on ebay is cheap crap made in China (not everything made in China in bad!, but most crap is made in China) I think.

Like cigarettes, all advertising for ebay should contain a warning: Buying here might be harm your purse.

Sorry if I sound a bit cynical but fact is that ebay is trmendeously successful and people get carried away. I use ebay myself occasionally but I would never ever (again) by a phone or accessory on ebay.

This is all my humble opinion. I do try support serious online shops that sell good products and good service at a competitive price. My advice here: Always see to it that the online shop you buy from provides full contact details on their website: postal address and a valid phone and fax number. There are too many shops out there with no physical address at all which to me is quite dubious.

Cheers
[Off-topic] hanmin:
I've been purchasing a quite a few things off eBay, mostly UK sellers, and all of the product I've got are brilliant. If you were to think China products are mostly crap, you can well steer away from it (i.e. most of the China sellers have a word 'China' on the item location).

Anyway, I have bought a powered USB hub from China (via eBay) for GBP5 (include P&P). For the same product, if you were to get it from here in UK, it will cost you at least GBP15+. And yes, my USB hub is still here and I'm using it.

And, yeah, I've got myself a 512 Kingston SD from China, for GBP5 cheaper than of UK sellers.

Anyway, with most people saying that China will be an "economy threat" to others, I'm sure there are some reason to that (i.e. you can't be a threat by manufacturing craps). You might want to reconsider your point of view.

Anyway, I've got my Charmer off eBay for GBP150, that is more than 50% off as compared I were to get it (without contract) off local/web stores.

[Off-topic] vijay555:
I've bought a lot of stuff from ebay.

However, selling stuff on ebay, obviously be extremely careful about your purchaser and receive positive indication of payment before posting.

Buying: well, you take your chances of course. I've had bargains on some small electricals (eg USB hubs etc), but if you're paying that kind of money, be prepared for crap quality, and then hope you'll be pleasantly suprised.

I've had my fair share of scammers and non paying auction winners. I think your level of caution should grow the more expensive the item, of course. A lot of guys will try to scam you out of a phone, or into a stolen one (or one without a touch screen :wink:)

I think there's some golden rules with eBay...

Take everything you see on there with at least a pinch of salt.

Remember, some fraudsters will get others to post fake good feedback, I've seen this in the past and although it's hard, it's possible.

Also make sure you can pay via a scheme which offers Buyer protection - the standard eBay buyer protection is VERY inadequate, and it's really hard to get your money back (and they charge a fee for the service too). If you have a credit card, usually if you have a problem you can speak to your credit card company directly and they will protect you from fraud by charging back the transaction (as far as I know, all UK credit card companies offer free fraud protection these days, so if you are defrauded out of your money they'll give it straight back and get in touch with the transaction processing company themselves to resolve the situation).

Avoid paying by cheque/cash/postal order wherever possible, you're just asking to be taken for a ride like that. Also, third party escrow companies not run or approved by eBay you should steer VERY clear of, I have seen people defrauded by fake escrow agencies. Anybody who pays with cash is just asking to be mugged.

Read the item description VERY carefully - I'm amazed how many people complain that they've received something they didn't want, or people who put negative feedback on items after they bought something which was actually broken (and said so in the description)... They have only themselves to blame. Scour the eBay description every time, and don't be afraid to ask the seller further questions or request pictures / more information if you feel you need it to be confident enough to make the bid.

Everyone with an ounce of common sense will already realise this, I hope.

Just sold my magician on eBay at the second attempt. I've bought quite a lot on eBay, even from Hong Kong and everything's been fine and dandy.

As a seller I'm a bit of a newbie and some nigerian tried to scam me out of my magician. He registered that very day claiming to be an american on business in Nigeria. He even went so far as sending me a fake PayPal confirmation.

I smelled a rat straight away when he said he wanted it posted to nigeria but gave him a chance given that there was a 0.0000001% chance he might have been genuine. When the fake PayPal came through though that was it. I reported him to eBay, PayPal, the owner of the domain he was using to (try to) scam me and then re-listed. He was thrown off eBay in short thrift and I soon had another (genuine this time) buyer.

If selling, you can specify that bidders MUST have a PayPal account and with "But It Now" you can specify immediate PayPay payment. Make sure you do and you really should be OK.

I have my money and the magician is in the post.

Everybody is happy.

P.S. Why do 99% of the world's internet scammers come from Nigeria?
[Off-topic] christopherwoods:
There's a culture, particularly in Nigeria, that scamming people from richer countries is almost entirely acceptable, as the scammers prey on the gullibility and greed of the rich people who usually fall for the scams (the promise of millions with a much smaller payment, what stupid rich person could turn that down?) - some people make a living exclusively from scamming Europeans and Americans (they call their targets 'mugus', singular mugu)... The most prevalent scam is the Advance Fee Fraud - the 419 scam (so called due to the number of the Nigerian law which makes it technically illegal... The thing is, these laws are rarely enforced, and corruption itself is widespread throughout the police force and government).

Of course, this is just how I interpret it, but you'll find others who share a similar point of view. Just googling for Nigerian scam 419 culture brings up some interesting results, including http://slashdot.org/articles/05/10/21/138243.shtml and http://www.pambazuka.org/en/category/blog/31063 ...

I have xprivacy installed and even when I uncheck all options for Google maps and try to find my current location with it, the gps sign flashes in the notification area but never gets a fix on my location. My question is simple:

I think I may have accidentally deleted some GPS files from my phone /device location. How do I check or what files do I look for in particular (and their location precisely) to make sure that I deleted my files and its not an issue in some other place before I go reporting a bud to the developer.

And where exactly are the GPS driver/files located in the phone?
