I searched for it, yep root is required but IDK if Android MM Kernel used by Asus (I own an Asus Zenfone 2 laser) support it.

I have another year of warranty and could be not a wise move to roote the device without beeing sure of what I'm doing and if it's possible to use netfilter and iptables as a firewall.

But I think it worth to study this interesting problem.

Thank you very much for your kind reply.
[Security Discussion] sushant121:
To use iptable phone should be rooted. If you don't want to void your warranty, vpn based firewall are the best option.
[Security Discussion] MezzaLuna:
Thank you very much.

So which one do you suggest? I have another year of warranty and of course I don't want to void it.

Do you know NoRoot Firewall?

Any suggestion on how set it up?

Keep in touch guys.
[Security Discussion] sushant121:
It is a vpn based firewall. You can use it. It is too easy. The tutorial helps to do almost everything.
[Security Discussion] MezzaLuna:
Thank you very much.

I don't know which tutorial you are talking about but I'll google for it.

I have been using the No root Firewall app for several months and have had no problems.. these users who complain, probably don't know that you have to initiate the process in the app by checking it off. ... But wouldn't setting up a VPN through your provider the safest instead of an APP?
[Security Discussion] IronRoo:
A VPN is not a firewall, they do different jobs. NoRoot fw is a firewall that just uses the VPN service of YOUR PHONE to capture all traffic without root so it can apply firewall rules, it's not a "real" VPN connected to an external server.

[Security Discussion] Applied Protocol:
AFWALL+ can do that with its' logging options you can not however block that in real time (needs non standard kernel support NFQUEUE)

The diffrence betweent a vpn and real firewall is that the vpn takes in all traffic and then decides what to do with it while a root firewall such as AFWALL rejects it with out ever being accepted. Both option can be used to reroute your network traffic (i.e. doubling the output and sending it to another place) however without access to root AFWALL can not and you can check the rules.

For Android Pie the policy for the new API 28 is selective apps can access the network interfaces to try to secure this problem (that any app can reroute network traffic)

can you tried Internet Guard?

[Security Discussion] wpling:
Hey I need someone's help in understanding this; when I open data used by each app I see no root firewall having a considerable amount data used I want to understand what exactly got used here. I initially concluded that this data is obviously the stuff that is getting routed through the app from other apps, but then I noticed it it's not exactly the same as sum all apps combined which should be the case if that's what is happening. Is no root firewalling logging some stuff? Or is there something I'm missing here? Any explanation would be appreciated.
[Security Discussion] MezzaLuna:
Hi all.

This app is stucked to 2014.

Any alternative with ongoing support? Thank you.

You can try "NetGuard - no-root firewall".

Has anyone replaced the digitizer on the hox? If yes what glue did you use?
[HTC One X] okhughes:
Hi,

Have never had much luck replacing the digitizer only, mainly due to the fact that the LCD is bonded to the digitizer and by replacing the digitizer only I have found that you can get dust between glass and LCD. If this doesnt bother you I've found that any instant adhesive is ok but use the smallest amount in the corners and in the middle of the longest edge - again dont use too much or it will run under the glass when you press edges down and will be visible. I have found it is best to buy a LCD/Digitizer combo with a midframe which comes with new 3M adhesive but you may need to use instant adhesive as the digitizer can separate from the frame later
[HTC One X] and313:
tnx for the answer. i will take it apart, clean it and take it to a shop so they glue it together again... they should clean what i missed that way at least i hope so
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FlyEvolution:
Hi everyone, I've been having lots of problems for the past few days with my new Moto G LTE. When I first got it, I unlocked the bootloader and rooted it using motorola's instructions and everything was fine up until the other day. Basically when the phone has any microsd card in it, the home screen will crash and everything will slow down to the point of being unresponsive within about 4 minutes without fail, and the phone will eventually restart. If I try to format a card in the phone, it also does this. I had a few root apps installed like SDfix, and foldermount and everything was working great for the first week and a half. This first started happening after I installed airdroid and was trying to move some tv shows to the sd card over wifi.

Here's a video showing exactly what happens, I apologize if it is too long I tried to shorten it as best I could. if you skip to 2:15 that is where the symptom starts:

http://youtu.be/BQa9m0HXb04

The phone never does this if there is no microsd card inserted and otherwise works normally.

Can anyone help me? I don't know what to do. It seems like it's not possible to re flash the rom on this phone yet since there are no roms on the internet...

Try different sdcards..I have a 64GB internally and have also had a 32GB plugged into the USB/Charge port at the same time, both mounted, and running MP4 video from either card..

Format the card FAT32 with a computer..WindowsXP works best for the (older) FAT32 format..

Also..do a deep slow format (FAT32) on the card..NOT quick format..I use to have trouble at times with different SDcards..once I done the above, the card settles in and is much more agreeable..

[Microsoft Surface] jester350:
I have the i5 256Gb model. I love it as it's exactly what I was after, large screen running windows so I could easily run lightroom and photoshop. I've had ipads for years and it takes a bit of getting used to. The screen is a little large for general tablet use and of course its a full on PC so can get v.hot and the fan can get full on loud at times. I also gets a lot more respect and thought when getting thrown in a bag, and there are places I would use the ipad without thinking where I would be more worried about the surface getting damaged. I has almost won w8 over for me as well though it's still far from perfect

How is the pro 3?
[Microsoft Surface] nys299:
It is terrific....you definitely should get it. I have been using it for a while now and it is just fantastic.

The tablet is so light (for a full core i7 PC, 800 grams for tablet alone) and typing on the type cover is terrific as the keys are quite broad. The 3:2 form factor actually makes the tablet very usable compared to the longish 16:9 in many laptop and tablets. Kudos for Microsoft for daring to be different. The ability to do work in a Portrait orientation makes me so ultra productive as I can see my entire page all at once (very important to me). There are so many pluses in Portrait orientation, I can read an entire webpage at one go without having to zoom in. However, there is a caveat. When in portrait orientation, you have to unplug the type cover and essentially the type cover is useless when it is not plugged into the SP3. So you have to get an external (preferably bluetooth) keyboard for that. It sucks that it has only 1 USB port and despite what I have read online, the battery life was so-so for me....around 5 hours plus. Maybe its because I am using the core i7/512GB version. I would have gladly accepted another 100g of weight on the product in exchange for slightly longer battery life.

I think the sweet spot for this product in terms of price/performance/battery-life is really the core i5/256GB version. Occasionally it does get pretty hot at the back.....I am not sure if it is because of the core i7. Also, I used to own a Lenovo Yoga 2 pro...and although I like that laptop, however, 2 negatives for me...the yellow colors are more like mustard and there is no way to overcome it and Lenovo is pretty much ignoring the issue....and the standard SD card slot has 80% of the SD card sticking out of the slot. The screen and colors on the SP3 are very accurate and the 2K (2156x1440) resolution is sharp and bright. And Microsoft hid a micro-SD card slot behind the tablet hidden by the kick-stand and its terrific. However, the micro-SD card tends to go to sleep very often and the only way to wake it is to pull it out of the slot and push it back in. I have found no way to get the micro-SD card to stop going to sleep. The accuracy of the PEN when taking notes is very very good compared to many tablets that I have tried before and its smart integration to One Note (free) and One Note 2013 (free also I think) is fantastic.
[Microsoft Surface] Scann69:
So I've been using the SP3 for about a month and recently took it for travelling. At the hotel, i connected the SP3 to my Jambox speakers and it was great except that the music would turn off when the screen turns off. The only way to keep the music playing is to extend the sleep time on the SP3 which also means the screen is kept on. Not the most ideal case compared to using a notebook.

Is there a work around for this? Or maybe a setting i may have missed.

Sleep bug-----Hibernate Alternative

i had the surface 2 pro for 1 year and absolutely loved it, but i kept running into an issue that when it was in its sleep mode it somehow would wake itself up in its case and stay on running. Later for me to find a superheated surface with significant battery drain. The only fix i could find is to make it hybernate, it uses 8 gigs of harddrive space for the ram, but thats the only drawback, it starts about the same speed. So i recently bought the pro 3 for the sole purpose of the larger screen, that was my only complaint from my pro2. i then found out that the surface 3 seems to have the same issue as i had with the pro 2. But the pro 3 didnt have hibernation available when i searched for its, i asked the staff at my closest microsoft store and they said it looks like they phased it out. But after a ton of searching and digging i found a way to enable hibernate.

i tried enabling by cmd line like normal " powercfg -h on" didnt give me an error but nothing showed up.

Remember that you need enough hard drive space as hibernate takes your ram and dumps it to your harddrive. space used on hard drive=ram size

This replaces your sleep option with hibernate

1) hit start

2) search add or remove programs or Control Panel\Programs\Programs and Features

3) left side will have "Turn Windows features on or off"

4) select the main Hyper-V

5) hit ok

6) wait for it to find and install files

7) restart computer

9) should now show up under power button options

should you want to remove the hibernate and restore sleep option, simply go back in and uncheck the Hyper-V-you need to set your power button preferences again back to sleep

any help please leave a thanks
[Microsoft Surface] stricker49:
sounds like its just going to sleep, if that's the case

extend the sleep time like you did but adjust the screen turn off to be shorter

1) Control Panel

2)All Control Panel Items

3)Power Options

4)Edit Plan Settings
[Microsoft Surface] GoodDayToDie:
Turning Hyper-V on or off as a way to control sleep-vs-hibernate is kind of silly; if you want to enable hibernate (and it's not already enabled) you can do that with a single line (in an Admin command prompt): "powercfg -H ON"

The behavior of the computer with regard to when it enters sleep and/or hibernate is controlled from the Power Options -> Edit Plan Settings, as you already gave steps to reach (though it's faster to just right-click the system tray battery icon and select "Power Options" than to go through the Control Panel).
[Microsoft Surface] Scann69:
Thanks for the reply. That's what i've been doing with all my other notebooks and computer but on the SP3, when i change the "Turn off display after" settings, it changes the sleep timing to match it.

Hence i'm guessing i'm missing a hidden step. Attached pix for better understanding.
[Microsoft Surface] stricker49:
turns out i disabled sleep mode and replaced it with hibernate, it gives me turn display of after __ min not the sleep like yours

the sleep issue i keep running into is it wakes itself up in the case and stays on. ill try to revert back and look into it

---------- Post added at 02:59 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:52 AM ----------

did you even read the full post?

if you read my post i ran that command to begin with since it was the simplest solution, but it doesnt work.
[Microsoft Surface] Scann69:
Thanks but i'll rather let it sleep cos waking up is much faster compared to hibernate IMO. Mine does not wake itself so i have no issues there. Just can't get the screen to turn off without letting the device sleep.

Hi all,

I recently bought an SPV1500 and it has ext ROM version 1.11.167. I notice that most modified ROMs are based on the 1.11.162 version. Is the 162 more stable than the 167? If I load one of the modified 162, will I be "downgrading" my alpine? Would I be missing any fixes?

Is there something good out there or should I stay with stock?
[Moto X Q&A] linuxgator:
I'd recommend sticking with stock and just installing xposed framework and gravitybox. You can get most of the features of various roms that way, and still keep all of the unique features found in the stock rom.

You could also checkout Eclipse or Krypton. Both are stock/blur based, keeping active notifications and touch-less control. I'm currently using Eclipse 3.2.1 and faux kernel 007u. It's been very stable for me and keeps the features I want. Moto Connect doesn't work for me with Eclipse (I don't think it works for anybody). Twist to launch the camera has been hit or miss with faux kernel, but I think it works fine with Eclipse and the stock kernel.

I'm undervolted on faux and using per app clock speeds, it's really increased my standby and browsing battery life. In conjunction with xposed and wakelock terminator I'm getting 2.5% drain/hour with normal usage throughout the day while keeping location reporting/history and all of the google now features on. I think I get somewhere around 0.8/1.0% drain overnight, but I haven't left the phone off the charger overnight in a while.

So, apparently Google added a hidden "Heads Up" Notifications option on KitKat.

It is currently set off by default but the Cyanogen Team enabled it on their latest update.

Do you guys think it is possible to enable this option for other devices using Xposed?

Source: http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/0...n-aosp-enables-them-in-latest-cm11-nightlies/

Description: These floating notifications are meant to be used in full-screen apps or Immersive Mode, but for whatever reason, they aren't switched on in AOSP code. When switched on, all notifications will float in just below the notification bar, or just where it would be if you're currently in full screen mode. These are basically identical to the notification you'd see if you pulled down the bar - you can tap it to go to the relevant application, swipe left to dismiss it, pinch out to expand, et cetera.

Hey, so I'll start off by saying everything works fantastic with the CWM11.0 and KitKat ROM I installed! Everything is smooth and amazing! The only problem is the location services being buggy and not working with a few apps, but a thread about that has already been made and I'll just monitor that for any solutions. My question is since there's no emmc version of KitKat yet for the Nook HD: for future official KitKat updates, how would we install them? I'm assuming you can't auto-update because it's running from the EXT. SD card. Anyone have any ideas how the updates would be installed?
