[General Questions and Answers] _butch_:
Hi,

currently I am using Android Firewall on CM10.2.

Nice app but I am missing some pro features.

Is there any Firewall for Android available where I can restrict app's network traffic to special IPs or domain names?

Example:

An app (eg. contact sync app) should be allowed do communicate with an owncloud server. Access to other destionations should be blocked. The feature for deciding that an app should only be able to communicate via wifi is also needed. (thats working fine in android firewall).

Do you know such a firewall app? If it is open source it would be perfect.

Regards,

Butch

Hello everyone. I am new to the HTC One (m7wlv) but not new to htc or rooting/flashing etc. I am s-off and my bootloader is unlocked, and i am running the stock rom rooted and debloated. I want to get a custom kernel on here, but i cant seem to get any to stick. By that i mean i have tried several, and they all flash with no errors. But when i reboot, the kernel is still stock and unchanged. I have tried all three different recoveries, ive tried regular flashing and flashing with htc dumlock. What am i missing here? Can you not use a custom kernel with a stock rooted rom? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

The rom is just the ota 2.10.605.1 that i rooted and debloated.

Yes i was pretty active on the incredible. Unforrunatley it took a crap finally so i decided to go for the one. Thanks for replying.
[Verizon HTC One (M7)] santod040:
You need an insecure Boot.img in your current rom, to allow it to be overwritten.

My Stock rom has an insecure Boot.img in it.

You could fastboot flash that Boot.Img and then flash the custom one.

You should be able to just fastboot flash the new kernel, if it is packed into a Boot.Img.(most custom kernels aren't)

If it's packed in Anykernel style, then you will have to repack it into a Boot.img from your rom, or do what I suggested above and then flash it.

Essentially you are on an unrooted, secure stock Boot.Img that will not allow for the kernel to be overwritten.

Chances are, that the modules did flash though and you probably ended up just breaking wifi...and maybe more.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Hi,

I flashed last night Temasek's CM11 4.4.2 ROM (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2596887), wiping user data, caches, etc (I was on a rooted stock 4.1.2 ROM).

Everything is working great so far, I love this ROM, I just noticed a problem that it's quite annoying: it seems that the internal user data file system (which would be the /sdcard folder in my old ROM) is all messed up and replicated. Here;s what happens:

I created a backup of the current ROM with Online Nandroid backup. If I use a file explorer from my phone (X-plore) and go to the "partition" /storage/emulated/0 I can see the backup created in /storage/emulated/0/clockworkmod/backup/.

However, if I connect the phone to my PC and browse the contents, the partition that I see isn't that same partition, it's an older one with older files (for example it has a clockworkmod folder but the backup isn't there, and some folders are different). What;s worse is that I can't find this "old" partition when browsing my phone with X-plore. These are the palces where I've looked at:

- /storage/emulated/0 (shows the partition where the backup I just created went, I can see the backup there)

- With root privileges:

- /data/media (shows an older second partition with different folders)

- /data/media/0 (shows the "right" partition, where the backup is)

- /sdcard (again, shows the "right" partition)

- /storage/sdcard0 (same here, shows the "right" one)

So to sum up, it looks like I see at least 3 diffent partitions:

1. From my PC, I see an older one that I can't see from X-plore (I tried Cyanogenmod file explorer too)

2. From my phone, I see the one that has the backup I just created

3. From my phone too, I see a second old partition (different from the one I see from my PC)

So what I would like to know is:

1. How can I transfer the backup to my PC if I can't see the partition that holds it from there?

2. Is it safe to just delete all those folders in both old partitions? I'm sure they're taking space unnecessarily

Any help would be much appreciated!

You need to apply the restore SD card after downgrade.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
Hey! So it seems that did it!!! Now I can see ALL the contents in the /sdcard partition (X-plore shows it as /storage/emulated/0)

So my question is (I'm still pretty noob at all this): all the files/folders shown there shouldn't be critical for the OS to work, right? They should all be stuff saved by apps, that if they get deleted the worst thing that will happen is that those apps will lose that info, right? I ask because I can recognize most of them, but not all of them, so I'm not sure, and I would like to remove as much stuff as possible.

One file that makes me doubt specially is /sdcard/clockworkmod/download/download2.clokworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.3-t0lteatt.img. Is that the actual CWM recovery that I have in my phone? Or just the installation image that can be removed?

Thank you very much for your help!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] lebertian:
I ended up deleting everything from the sdcard partition and restoring the stuff that mattered to me, and everything seems fine now. The only weird thing is that when I create a backup with Online Nandroid backup (which gets stored in /sdcard/clockworkmod/backups), I can't see it when connecting my phone to my PC. I can see everything else in the sdcard except the backup. I've tried unplugging and plugin again the phone, rebooting it, rebooting my PC... but nothing. However, if I zip the backup folder with X-plore, leaving the zip file in the same folder as the backup folder, my PC can see it...

Weird thing but oh well!

Can I root my Z1 having the 4.3 version without downgrading? If so please tell me. I downgraded yesterday and ended up not having having any signal and my imei was a bunch of zero's.

If you know a fix for the downgrading problem that is fine too, as long as I can root it preferably tonight.

Thank you in advance
[Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shem2409:
Whilst downgrading, you have to downgrade to .257 and then to .534. The problem with disappearing IMEI happens only if you downgrade directly to .534.

If you have an unlockable bootloader you could unlock your bootloader and then flash a custom kernel.

If you are on locked bootloader or would prefer to not unlock the bootloader, the only way is to downgrade all the way to .534, root, install recovery and then prerooted firmware.

Hey guys, this is my first post on the forums, and forgive me if I am posting in the wrong section and if I am, please let me know where to post this question, thanks in advanced.

So I am one of the very many who are unfortunate enough to have android 4.3 On my Note 2, and then I was stupid enough to r00t it. So in turn, my knox count went from a nice 0x0 to an ugly 0x1.

So i did some reading and from what I understood, Sammy can reset it themselves but say goodbye to the warranty. I just got off the phone from a local cell phone repair shop, and the guy told me that he can reset it for me for 50 dollars.

My question is, should I trust this guy and have him reset it for me? Is he actually going to reset it? Or will he just hide it so the knox 0x1 doesnt even show at all?

My goal is to simply get the phone in a state where I can get it replaced under warranty, and advice would be greatly appreciated.

Again, forgive me if I broke any rules.

If his company had a deal with Samsung then he can reset the knox counter. I my last meeting with Samsung they stated we would be able to reset the corporate phones we are thinking about buying for my company in our own IT department, to avoid having to send them out to Samsung.

As I have said before knox is installed to keep employees from modding corporate phones. To the average consumer it means nothing.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ShrekOpher:
Okay I got s new update on the whole Knox thing.

Samsung has confirmed it can be reset. Knox begin tripped effect the software of the phone only it does not trip an actual hardware fuse. However we are now being told that we will not be allowed to have the software because it might compromise the integrity of Knox for them to let other companies have it.

Do to this I asked a few more specific questions regarding the future of the phone once Knox has been tripped.

I can confirm that this does not void a physical damage warranty unless there is proof that the phones kernel has been modified. Not sure how they could tell but that's what they said.

Also I can confirm that it will not effect your devices ability to upgrade to new android versions when they come out. However when the upgrade comes out it will not be able to install the Knox portion of the upgrade. As long as Knox is tripped it will not reinstall on the device.

I can also confirm that the device will continue to operate normally with Knox tripped. Knox is designed to keep a small portion of the device compartmentalize, once tripped it removes that compartment and formats it into the rest of the device.

This is all per a Samsung 4 Business rep as of this morning.

They were actually pretty straight forward and open about it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] theunderling:
Thanks for the info.But you seem to have been told 2 totally contrasting stories,which makes me suspicious.Did the guy know that most,if not all private users want to remove knox,opposed to hack it or the like.They could potentially lose more private customers than gaining ones from business sector.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] yanathin:
Have you ever taken a look at the gallery section over on www.origamiproject.com ? It's filled with a bunch of pretty nice-looking wallpapers for UMPCs, but UMPCs aren't available until much later, rendering these small wallpapers useless... until now. I've picked ten different images from that gallery and customized themes for each of them (creating eleven themes total). I also enhanced the themes to fit in with a somewhat universal layout for the today screen.

Keep in mind that these themes are designed for Wizard users with the latest Qtek ROM (2.17 or higher) installed! The reason I say this is because the date on the today screen takes up two lines in the newer ROM, and the today screen background reflects the position of the date bar. If you're confused, take a look at the previews below, you'll see what I mean.

Anyway, as I was saying before, each theme has carefully selected colors to best match their backgrounds, and all of them work in both portrait and landscape mode. I tried my hardest to smooth out the gradients that sometimes give problems on PPC screens. Oh, and I also thought of a cheezy name for each one. :wink: The previews along with a ZIP of all the themes are attached to this post, so go crazy. And if you haven't updated to the latest ROM yet, shame on you. Go do it, you won't regret it.

P.S. - If anybody knows how to skin the Phone screen (where you dial the number and everything), PLEASE let me know. It really, really clashes with a lot of these themes...

AND... if anybody knows how to make the date take up only one line, move the clock to the top, and put the battery back at the bottom, that would be amazing. That way I could re-make all these themes so that they could work with EVERYBODY that has a WM5 device!
