I have been using custom ROMs for few years now trying all these cool ROMs on XDA, and only this week I got an alert from my anti virus (Avast) on my Windows PC that some of these ROMs have an infected apk file with "Cosha.D"

I am not using any of these ROMs anyway, but just wanted to raise the issue and check if anyone got this alert too.

The ROMs that have the video player apk infected were Velocity Nightly Build 5, Holics and DarkRaider

I am NOT saying that this was done intentionally, but I just wanted to see if anyone else is aware of this.

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
I haven't installed these roms, so I've never run into these problems before (only used PAC, AKOP CM 10.1, 10.2, and 11, and WCX Sense rom). I recommend posting this information in the threads of the roms you found the infected apk in. Reading the link you provided makes me think this may be a base part of the rom given its ability to receive calls and texts and stuff.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] stormleader:
Yes I know, I was planning to do that, but I needed to go through my anti virus logs to see what other ROMs were picked up as infected.

The other reason I started a new thread is to let everyone aware of the threat and see what other rules on XDA if any of the ROMs are infected.

Right now I'm not sure which ROMs to trust!

I've always known there are risks using Custom ROMs, but thought these ROMs would get thoroughly checked for security risks like these!!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
I'm just as surprised as you are that these rooms were found infected! I too would have thought they would have been more thoroughly checked, but at least you discovered this before anything really bad happened. Hopefully you'll get a reply on the threads soon.

[General Questions and Answers] whitezombie455:
Sorry for the repost but I have waited almost a month now with no response... Anyways I successfully changed my father's phone from a Telus HTC One Sense to the Google Play Edition. I even changed the id so it matched the google play edition GOOGL001. I managed to get S-ON and remove the root and even update his now google play edition phone OTA. Sooo the phone even thinks it is the google play edition. The only problem remains we can't lock it. We can get it to say relocked with the fastboot oem lock command but then his phone will come up on the screen saying tampered and relocked and you can't boot the device to the main screen.

So we need it to say locked not relocked. At the moment it is unlocked. Now I was following a youtube video and it told me to use revone http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2314582 BUT it does not support the version of HBoot on my father's phone (whatever that is lol)... So yeah is there any way to lock his phone while keeping S-ON and the google play edition operating system on it without the root with Hboot 1.54???

If not I guess we will have to leave it at unlocked... Thanks!

I need help installing an Android app without using the package installer.

Is there any way of installing an app through any other means than clicking on the .apk file in the folder?

Would it be possible to manually extract the apk archive and move the files to appropriate folders somewhere in /root/?

Anyone know?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hnkotnis:
Method 1

Click below button to show.

Download Root Explorer from Play Store.

For system apps, copy apk to /system/app/(here) and give permissions rw-r--r-- (0644). permissions explained in method 2

For regular app, copy apk to /data/app/(here) and give permissions rw-r--r-- (0644). permissions explained in method 2

Method 2

Click below button to show.

Download Aroma File Manager

Click here

Choose any version. I would suggest 1.80 or 1.90.

Go to recovery, mount system, data and sdcard and flash aroma file manager.

Go to sdcard====>apk location.

Long click apk and press copy.

1) If you want it to be system app, put in /system/app/(here).

After you copy, long press and give permissions rw-r--r--. (0644)

Permissions look like

[V] [V] [ ]

[V] [ ] [ ]

[V] [ ] [ ] here V is tick mark

2) If you want it as regular app,

Copy to /data/app/(here).

Give permissions 0644. Same permissions like System app.

Exit and reboot.

Method 3

Click below button to show.

Download Android SDK on PC and get drivers and make sure ADB is working. Put the APK in Android SDK/platform-tools.

Open command prompt in platform-tools. Type

adb start-server
adb devices
(#you will see your device in list if adb installation is correct#)
adb install xyz.apk

If you get success message; (be patient it takes some time), app is installed as regular app.

For installing as syatem app, search how to push files in /system/app.

Method 4 (For System apps only)

Click below button to show.

Download System Apps Installer from Play Store.

Locate the apk and click install.

Package installer not required

Press Thanks if helped.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary Jones:
Hi,

I have recently installed android rev hd 40 on my s3 I was going to back it up using Rom Manager before trying another rom. It failed to back up data and then said something about superuser access. I tried to reboot. It got to lock screen twice and crashed back to reboot. then stuck on samsung boot screen.

I used odin to re-root(i think) and phone started ok. but when i tried to update binary? as requested it failed. I tried to install chainfire from market and it said there was not super user installed and that this was a problem! that I should come to forums for advice.

I then tried to restore from rom manager.......rom manager not working due to no super user access.....I think. It cannot see any restore files.

Not sure how I use odin for anything other than cf auto root.

can anyone help me reinstall cmw and get super user access again???

thanks
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amirTor:
First of all- see if you got app called 'SuperUser' installed in your app drawer (which is different from chainfire's SuperSU app you tried to install).

If the answer is yes- see if in-app root access permissions are disabled. If the answer is no and you have access to CWM, i suggest flashing SuperSU with CWM from this link (It should replace your current root manager): http://download.chainfire.eu/381/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.91.zip

If the flashing failed because it says that you dont have rooted device- try to reflash CF-Auto root with odin: http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/

If you dont have acess to CWM or want to install a newer recovery- I recommend Philz touch: http://goo.im/devs/philz_touch/CWM_Advanced_Edition/i9300

(It can be installed with Odin (.tar file) in the same way as CF-AutoRoot, or in CWM mode with the .zip file)

Good luck
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary Jones:
Thanks for the help.

I have flashed the philz recovery as suggested. Worked a treat. The only issue is that I have lost all my previous back ups.

Is it still possible for me to to unroot and clear rom counter if I needed to, if there was a warranty claim fault on the phone without access to the original back up?

Thanks again.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cellrama:
I know I'm breaking the cardinal rule of posting in the wrong forum but many of you have been such a great help with my Note 3 and are knowledgeable on Samsung products in general, I thought I would cross post. With the Note 3, you can access the "Regional Carrier" settings using the following code:

*#272*[IMEI]# (that is *#272*(your IMEI number)#)

When this menu is accessed, it shows all the carriers (using 3 letter code) which the phone can be set to. Assuming your device is unlocked and the inserted SIM is from the carrier you're switching to, upon reboot, the phone is provisioned for that specific carrier (APN settings, carrier specific apps, network settings etc...).

This is a great feature but I'm wondering how you access this menu on the Samsung Galaxy S4 device. The model I'm using is the M919V model from WIND Mobile (Canadian variant).

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cellrama:
RESOLVED

Unlike the Note 3, the CSC (Consumer Software Customization) otherwise known as the Regional Carrier menu is a hidden menu within the Samsung Device model lineup. This menu will show a listing of scripts in the phone, depicted by a 3 letter code and specific to the carriers which can be preloaded on your device. If your device is unlocked and you wish to use it with one of the specified carriers, you can insert your carrier specific SIM, access this menu and "INSTALL" the specific configured script for that carrier. The question is always asked... "What is the benefit?".

Answer: With smartphones, they are mini computers and not just your typical "telephone". As such, you have multiple settings which vary among carriers. As such, by configuring your device to be carrier specific, it will modify specific settings which are proprietary to that specific carrier. As an example, it will modify the APN details, update your network settings to reflect access to specific modems such as 3G, 4G, HSPA+ and LTE and will also brand the device with specific apps which have been preloaded and configured for that specific carrier such as a "My Account" app. These are just some of the things to name a few which implementation of the proper CSC settings will provide.

Samsung realized that tech savvy people have figured out how to access these menus and this has resulted in fixes implemented in OTA updates to hinder people from being able to do this. As such, you cannot use the typical dialpad entry to gain access to the menu but do have the ability through ROOTING your device. Unfortunately, a ROOT will most likely "void" your warranty so it's at the discretion of the "end user" whether or not the warranty is important.

Thank you to all who assisted and happy trails!

Hi guys. It is my first time to run cyanogenmod on my phone. I have the Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 2 4G and I tried to install the CM 11 of jfbs. I did all the backups and I wiped the data and cache and installed the ROM and Gapps. But I rebooted my device and the Cyanogenmod logo appeared with the spinning arrow and it didn't want to stop spinning (or loading if you want). My phone was stuck on logo and the spinning arrow. I forced the phone to turn off and when I rebooted it I worked but after a little time it went back to the logo and the spinning arrow. I re-installed the ROM and Gapps but like before, the logo and the spinning arrow still there until now and it won't even stop and lead me to the lock screen. PLEASE can somebody tell me if it won't work or what is wrong whit it or if it is matter of time, how long should i wait? PLEASE I need to know what is going on and what to do. :crying: :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cars1189:
(as a dev for this phone)

If you could PM me with more details that would be helpful. When i hear that it continues after a reboot(not the first person to have said that) i think its that you are not waiting enough time. That may or may not be the case. I would give it a good 5 min. I have never timed mine but it does seem to me that prior android versions took about 2-3min maybe and for w.e. reason android 4.4(cm-11.0) takes a few more min. Anything over >=10min though id say is too much. In these cases the only things that can really help are logs. Logs are the only way you can show a dev what you are experiencing.

(as a xda member)

Also i would use the device thread not the general android thread, read through the rom thread of the rom you are tryng to install, and a last and final note, I would recommend that anyone that is new to install older more mature roms first. These roms will yield the best experience in most cases. Then once you are familiar you can experiment with other roms/mods etc etc.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theking1st:
Thank you [MENTION=1816400]cars1189[/MENTION] for your answer. I used the device thread to do it but the problem is, I let it spinning for more than 5 hours. I have flashed many roms in my phone since i had it (more than 10 times or more) and i know that it does not take more than 10 mins max to install. But don't worry after that i went back and restored my previous CM 9 rom and right now i'm on the CM 11 build of 1-29-14 of your CM mass thread. It works fine, not at 100% but it doesn't drain my battery like your CM 10.2 build of 1-11-14 and it is almost stable. I will try tonight to use your ADC kernel with the jfbs CM 11 rom that first didn't work for me because I saw in your thread that this kernel may help it to load and install without the spinning issue. So i will give it a shoot. But anyways thanks for your answer and it means a lot to me really. :D :good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] theking1st:
GOOD

[MENTION=1816400]cars1189[/MENTION] , I'm actually running the 6-18-14 build of CM11 and as far as it goes, i'm not encountering any major issue at the moment. The theme engine is working fine for me and battery life is great for my usage. I use this build as a daily driver, and it does a great job. Calls, texts, data, wifi, Bluetooth and GPS are all working. I had issues before with the amount of RAM available, but now that it has 375MB of RAM, it is more snappy. Just :good: Thank you for your work on our to make our phone still valuable today!! THANKS MAN!!!!!!
