[Security Discussion] Ultramanoid:
Regarding the advertising coming to Firefox and already in nightlies.

The backlash is being pretty harsh, particularly from power users, and the most insulting thing seems to be the fact that Mozilla does not want to call this advertising, much less tracking users' behaviour. Which is exactly what it is.

Quote from Mozilla themselves :

( So they ARE tracking your use. For marketers who PAY money to be on Firefox, well, that's that, call it what you want. )

Some suggest to move back to Mozilla proper, the original browser plus utilities from the time before Firefox was separated from it ( these days called SeaMonkey, still in more or less active development, and still fugly and clunky, but it works just fine. Wonder if one of these days we'll have to find a copy of Netscape or Mosaic. )

From Firefox they suggest unhappy users can turn off the new tab page with advertising in about:config ( browser.newtab.url set to value = blank ) which may turn the advertising off, but does NOT remove the code, and hurts those who actually use the tiles; I don't myself but I guess many people do.

None of this addresses the concerns of the Android version, because they include AdMob crap. How to remove that, well, good luck. Orfox right now seems to be the only alternative if one wants to use the Gecko engine on Android. ( There's Pale Moon, but how often will that be updated who knows, and it uses an older version of Firefox than Orfox anyway. )

What a crappy, disgusting, revolting development, Mozilla.
[Security Discussion] aelmahmoudy:
What's in Firefox/Gecko that isn't in Lightning ? I use lightning mostly, and I don't seem to find troubles with it.
[Security Discussion] Ultramanoid:
AdMob is fantastic. The shizzle.

And the others are cool stuff too :

http://www.pcworld.com/article/2093...le-ad-libraries-security-researchers-say.html

It doesn't matter if it's free, open source, or even ( sigh ) comes from Mozilla. If it has advertising code in it is 1 ) insecure 2 ) a privacy breach.
[Security Discussion] aelmahmoudy:
I think you got my question wrong. What I meant is, you seem to be so keen to have a clean browser that is Gecko based (ie. you will miss the good features of Firefox), so my question is: regarding the Android platform, what are the features to be missed which are in Firefox but not in a browser like Lightning for example ?

Personally, I see that Lightning opens all webpages I need, and they look alright in that browser.
[Verizon LG G2] drivenby:
I'm on Verizon 24a stock, not rooted or anything.

When the phone initially boots up it is lightning fast as expected.

It gets slower and slower until about 3 days after boot when even the launcher starts to redraw with only one app open.

I check free ram and it says 250ish with no apps open (in task manager)

What's going on?
[Verizon LG G2] SchmidtA99:
Have you tried to disable some of the Verizon or LG bloat software that is on it? Some of those programs use a lot of memory.
[Verizon LG G2] drivenby:
Just did that, thanks.

Found out there's a way to essentially "freeze apps" without rooting.

If you open the task manager and then go into settings, there's a "stop services" option.

I selected all the bloat and hid the icons in the launcher.

I just rebooted but everything seems to be perfect, so far.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] johnnyutah22:
I was browsing through the mods on the M8 International forum when I came across the "Enable Music Channel" thread found here http://xdaforums.com/htc-one-m8/general/enable-built-music-channelroot-t2818128. To make a long story short, you can enable this feature by navigating to system/customize/ACC/ and opening the default.xml file with a text editor. You basically just find the "support music channel" line of text at the bottom and change the value from false to true. As I was doing this, I noticed several other features that were disabled, including: support wifi offload, support fingerprint, support cb on dual, and others. My question is, has anybody messed around to see whether these features can be enabled, or what they actually do?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] theandies:
I suggest linking this post to that one. I just looked at my file and it has the sound channel in it and also all the features you mentioned (Stock AT&T)

I haven't rooted yet as I've had my phone less than a week and want to run it stock for a while. Saying that this is the kind of stuff I root (no pun intended) for.

[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
App updated to v1.2, try now and please give me feedback.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Gampanat:
Still does not work :/

I will send.you a pm with live-id for beta.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
That's quite strange, 200+ downloads and couple of beta testers are using same config as yours. No one is facing startup crashes.

Try uninstalling TimeNoti then restart your phone, after that install the app from the store.

EDIT: Give me your time zone name with UTC offset. Meanwhile try changing your time zone to GMT/UTC then start the app.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Gampanat:
UTC +2 (Stockholm time zone). And here we use 24 hour clock if that may help. I will try it later on, gotta work now.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
App tested with your given settings on my friend's 1520 (WP8.1 U1) phone and and everything is working fine. Live tile, time sync and no crashes, everything is normal.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Gampanat:
Does the phone have Lumia Cyan firmware update installed? Because I got that.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
Yup, my friend got that too. He once mentioned that after getting cyan he soft reset his phone because some of his older apps were crashing. If you want I can provide you some of the screenshots of my app running on 1520 (cyan firmware).
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Gampanat:
Hmm thats wierd, you don't need to post any screenshot.

I have tried soft-reset and no other app is crashing like that except ones not compatible with 8.1 update 1.

The app is still not working, also the beta one is not working. Hard-reset is not an option for me because I cannot create a backup since it doesnt work and let me do it. I have removed the other backup because they said that it would help but nope.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
Yes, don't hard reset your phone. It's not required in this case. I'll look back in the app code there is something that I'm missing. But it is still a strange thing for me. I'll update the BETA and will notify you. Have you tried placing the live tile on start screen and then launching the app through it?
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
Got two more reviews saying app crashing on start. I found a similarity, all three including you are from Europe region. :| The friend I was talking about using same config as yours is from US. Now idk what I'm missing here. I'll recheck every bit of code and keep you updated. Thanks for helping, Brother. :)
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
Okay, found the bug. App is crashing due to phone's language. It's the third party API which is incompatible with non-English languages like Swedish Language in your case. Well, I've removed the API and used my own code to complete the task. Now app is working smoothly no matter what phone language you use.

Great update

Really like the update :)

I know this aint a "clockface" but would love if u could make text-clock, a clock only with text as a option in the app :) if thats not too hard. I think that many would love it.
[Windows Phone 8 Apps and Games] Richi_Ric:
I was also thinking about the same feature, I'll add this feature in the next update but don't expect this update early because I'm working on updating my another app "PlayStation.Blog" to WP8.1 app.

Hello,

I have a XDA NEO with a old rom.

If i have a look at the Properties i can see the following things:

ROM-Version: 2.15.4.29GER

Rom-Datum(Date):3/9/06

Protokoll-Version:4.1.13.09

ExtROM-Version:2.15.4.115

I´ve found a update on the O2 Germany site in the following link:

http://www.o2-online.de/nw/support/downloads/software/xda/xdaneo/index.html

Do you know which improvements are coming with the new update.

I want to update my neo because i have problems with my Battery Status and that sometimes my neo doesn´t wake up from standby-mode.

I´ve also seen roms HTC and others.

Is it better to install a O2 Rom or dopod etc...

And when yes which Rom should i install?

Can i also reinstall things like the Homezone applikation.

Thanks for answering my question and im sorry for my bad english
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Mindmaster121:
Old Rom?

You´ve got the newest Rom of O2 Germany.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] thiax:

the newest is 2.15.4.47 i think....

i have new neo and this rom version in
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] T-Killa:
Hello,

what about the update from the o2 page should i install it or is ther any newer o2 english update or an update from htc?

Which is the best and fastest rom and if i use a htc rom can i also install the homezone application.

And another question does i have do do something special if i want to install a rom from another maufactur and do i lose my garanty ( can i reinstall the old rom if i have problems?).

Thanks for your answers.

T-Killa
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] Mindmaster121:
The latest O2-Update is 2.15.4.29GER. If you change the Rom you lose the Garanty. And reinstalling the O2-Rom ist depending on the Problems you should have. If it´s a Software Prob you can Reinstall, Hardware Prob it

could

be impossible. With a different Rom you can still install the HZ Control but you must take some changes to have GPRS I-Net and the possibility to send and recieve MMS.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 Software Upgrading] T-Killa:
Hm I thought that there would be a newer rom because my rom is from March and this should be the newest one ?

Why are ther lots of newer roms from HTC or other marks?

I found pictures about the Camera Menu of newer HTC Phones.

They looked more like a Digi-Cam.

Am i able to install this program to and if yes where can i download it.

Thanks for answers

First check whether you've inserted SIM properly, then if it doesn't work. pull out the battery and reinsert the SIM, still doesn't work? enable data roaming on your phone.. still doesn't work? check in other phone whether SIM is working or not!.. if SIM works, then flash modem on this phone.. or downgrade to ICS and then do a OTA update!.. and makesure you have proper signal for that SIM

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] UniX1rm:
Hey everyone,

I stumbled across this tonight and the sentence below got my attention.

The bill will restore a copyright exemption that allows customers (or authorized third parties) to modify a phone's firmware, removing the restrictions that most carriers place on their phones.

As of today, Americans can legally unlock their phones again

http://www.theverge.com/2014/8/1/5959915/president-barack-obama-signing-phone-unlocking-bill

Would that mean that we should be allowed to get a bootloader unlock regarding what att supports and doesn't support?
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] malickie:
That would be awesome. Now just gotta wait and see if the carriers and manufacturers actually follow through with this or will only follow through with it on New Devices and leave the older ones to rot.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] NightHawkUndead:
Tell me if I'm wrong but doesn't this only apply to carrier unlock. Has nothing to do with bootloaders
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] UniX1rm:
I think you're right but when I read in the article all that stuff about unlocking more stuff more than just the Sim. That definitely got me interested to read this bill. They'll try to resist but who knows.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] malickie:
I thought the same thin until I saw this line, "The bill will restore a copyright exemption that allows customers (or authorized third parties)

to modify a phone's firmware

, removing the restrictions that most carriers place on their phones" Plus as it stands most carries will carrier unlock a phone after a year anyway. Or you can say hey I am going out of country and need this phone unlocked and they will usually do it if they have the ability to do so. Sometimes they say they can't carrier unlock them because they are too knew blah blah. Either way you can legally carrier unlock a phone anyway it's when you get into firmware modding that it say's you void your warranty so I am guessing this bill if all goes as it should would get rid of the void warranty to some extent.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] K-alz:
I very much doubt that. It's for the regional lock that became "illegal" last year. It was all over the news. Now that the petition hit 100,000 vote they had to legalize it again. But hey I'd go with the bootloader unlock. Why not. Hell I'm smacking a cyanogenmod rom to my phone as soon as the bootloader is unlocked. Lol
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] faslane:
This is for carrier region unlock only. Nothing more. It's the same unlock that WAS legal until over a year ago by the DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) it passed Congress and you can now legally unlock your phone for other carriers. Doesn't have anything to do with bootloader. Your carrier may not unlock if still on contract but it's no longer illegal to go through a 3rd party if you need unlock for overseas travel (for instance) and need to use a different dim to avoid international rates through your regular carrier. It sounds good and all but won't apply to many who are under contract anyway or happy with their carrier. When unlocking a phone you are technically editing hardware so that's why the word firmware is used. It's "broad" form is all....legal jargon if you will.

Bootloader isn't happening as a result of this. But maybe someday it won't matter who knows.

:)
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] KennyG123:
Thread cleaned of political comments and profanity

And as others have said...this has nothing to do with bootloader..it is unlocking sim to other carriers or regions.

The carriers still have all rights to lock down phones from tampering.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] Delakit:
Reported for a signed petition to take off "(Bootloader)" Lol.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] DutchDogg54:
Based on the fact that this is clearly NOT referring to the bootloader, and due to the inordinately large volume of mod action already needed on this tiny thread, I've deleted the "(Bootloader)" from the title. It is misleading and unnecessary.

Thanks & most certainly carry on discussing the good news about carrier unlocking that this is.
[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 General] hajjikoko:
Yea bootloader will never ever happen... it was bogus that before this if you couldn't buy an unlock code and use your phone "legally".

Let's hope the carriers honor this and provide unlock codes without many hoops...

Hello every1..

1) I am a new user of the lg g2 f320 and since i recieved the phone, the knock on to wake up is not work well... I will have have to knock on the screen very hard for it to wakes up.. and even some most of the time it does not wake up. But if i am having my battery full, it works like charm. When the battery reaches 89% going down, then I start facing this problem i have cloudy g3 rom v1.2 installed on it.. But the knock on to wake up work very well..

2) I like the screen very much but I'd prefer if the navbar wasn't there and i can have a full screen.. So i wanted to know if there is any tweat to auto hide the navbar at the bottom to get full screen..

Thanks.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 60nine:
don't know about 1) because i'm on a d802 variant...

but for 2) you can use xposed mods:

- 123 dimensions (for making the nav bar buttons smaller) or

- app settings (in which you can select the imersive fullscreen mode per app which hides the nav bar completely in selected apps)

assuming you have root though
