If an app uses permissions not listed in the play store then it needs to be reported. It is part of Google agreement that they must list all permissions. I would not advise installing cm clean master. It is one of the worst Malware apps ever to hit the market.
[Security Discussion] Zwulf:
I did not recommend installing it, it's only to check what it does (if you can block those requests). And as already stated, Clean Master is a part of MIUI, deeply integrated (as I can remember even in the MIUI GUI there is a small hint about this... powered by CM or anything similar, dunno if this hint is still there but it was in MIUI v5). Crazy thing about this is, that this permission manager integrated in MIUI actually is build by CM (not CyanogenMod to be clear).

There is a thread/post on XDA about Dolphin browser using permissions not listed in Play Store (I think it was in XPrivacy thread, too lazy to search for, sorry), which was reported several times to Google. Resulting in Dolphin to change permissions but adding new permissions not listed, being reported again etc... Google did nothing to ban this malware from Play Store, even if they were informed that creators willingly violated rules several times. Since I read that and tried Dolphin myself, recognizing that it was really using those permissions not listed, I don't trust Play Store apps anymore. Dunno if they removed those permissions meanwhile, but I wouldn't trust this browser either. You can never be sure, the only way to protect your privacy is to have a good protection app. I'm not a big fan of Xposed, but I need it for XPrivacy and did never regret it.

Did you know that EVERY app in Play Store asks for your device serial, even if this is totally unnecessary for 99,9% of all apps to work? This is not written anywhere by Google or anyone else - correct me if I'm wrong. Everyone using XPrivacy knows that. Just try yourself, there is a free version.
[Security Discussion] zelendel:
I know who CM is. They are one of the most hated developers around. If they did well then it needs to be addressed. But to be honest I don't use anything that I don't trust. Every new app gets my log cat treatment. At night I let it run while running a log cat. But then I don't use a lot of apps. I think I have maybe 5 apps that I use that didn't come pre-installed.

I can't try for myself. My rom has a privacy setting that blocks xposed and cracked apps. Kinda like the new Android m does.
[Security Discussion] Zwulf:
Nice ROM, never seen this functionality on a ROM I tried. But if the app you make a logcat from is reading your contacts or SMS, they already got a lot of personal data, even if you uninstall it after failing your logcat test...

Nevertheless I'm impressed that there are people using only a handful of apps. ;)
[Security Discussion] zelendel:
Mine is a custom compile. I added a few things to the new privacy set up a lot of aosp roms are using to stop cracked apps. They block things like lucky patcher. I just added xposed to mine.

I don't use an app to run a log cat. I use my pc.

Yeah it's a tool to be used when needed and left alone when not. I have better things to do then look like an idiot with my nose always in my phone.
[Security Discussion] Zwulf:
Maybe a little misunderstanding - I meant the app you inspect afterwards via logcat already had time to collect personal data if it's not blocked before it can do this... Btw. I'm not one of those guys constantly staring at the phone (got no Facebook or similar account)... ;)

Didn't know about this blocking of Lucky Patcher, never used it nor any pirated apps - maybe some ROMs I used got it but I just didn't realize. Good to know that this exists - piracy destroys good apps by disappointing devs and disrespecting their efforts. Every ROM should have this.

Enough of OT (sorry!).

Have a nice day! :)
[Security Discussion] zelendel:
No worries. This really is kinda a dead topic for the most part.

This is true and while I try to only test out apps when the conditions are right to protect myself, its not always the case. Go Sms is a perfect example. So sometimes the app is able to do what it needs to before I find out.

(Normally I only test out new apps at night with data disabled so the app cant upload anything before I look over the logcat. )

Yeah Have a read here. I agree, every rom should have it and it should be merged into AOSP.
[Security Discussion] NiTrOwow:
It's dead because nobody give a flying ** about MIUI.. And for those who do, better get a job and be a real iPhone fanboy by buying one.

MIUI utterly sucks, I still don't understand why people like/preffer it.

Seriously. Just move on to CM, stock or purchase a iPhone for christ sakes.
[Security Discussion] ilfastidio:
I own a Xiaomi Mi4c with xiaomi.eu_multi_MI4c_6.8.4_v8-5.1 ROM.

I use it over my own vpn and when I sniffed the traffic with tcpdump I came into the same conclusions as NiTrOwow.

It' unaccettable that a mobile keeps talking and exchange private informations whit companies, either xiaomi or google.

When i wrote it to xiaomi.eu, sending the dump of unwanted communication with THEIR servers, they answered me: "sorry for the inconvenience, we suggest a factory reset".

WHHAAAAT? are they kidding me?

If you install AfWall+ you can clearly see that the problem is not only spyware-app related, it comes from kernel.

With SD Maid you can freeze all the apps calling home but the problem come from the root too.

All miui developers accomplice this mass surveillance.

I could try with cyanogen roms, you'd say, but they are very buggy... and still need proprietary xiaomi blob&stuff.

My paranoic mode is turned on, sorry, but just try a tcpdump to understand that our mobiles keep on talking with private companies.

Someone as REAL solutions? I mean be safe and keep on using a mobile phone?

NetGuard (http://xdaforums.com/android/apps-games/app-netguard-root-firewall-t3233012) is an open-source, no-root firewall. It's currently the best way to take control of what apps can get online. It works against system apps too, since it uses the VPN API.

Hi,

I have a 12 month old mini s and the contract is about to expire. I have an Orange sim card I would like to use in the phone. Is it just a matter of unlocking the sim card? or can I easily change the rom to an Orange version without to much hassle?

regards, Pete

Yes... make sure you follow the steps in this thread... that should get you to where you want to go...

Good luck;)
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] THEDEVIOUS1:
here u go guys...a few photos along with basic instructions

LOCKSCREEN WIDGETS

View attachment 2896482

this is "hd widgets" being shown on the lockscreen...to add more widgets simply swipe right on your clock & u will see the "plus" icon which brings up the list

FLOATING MULTIWINDOWS

View attachment 2896490

not sure how no one noticed this was missing but here goes the floating mode...just "tap" the icon in the multiwindow launcher instead of dragging it to create a new movable/resizable app window (please note that not all apps support pop-up/floating view...however this has been modded in V2 so no extra apps are necessary to enable this feature)

QUADVIEW

View attachment 2896528

this is the 4-way multiwindow mode also known as "quadview" which was present on the 12.2 inch pro tabs...to set this up just drag 2 apps to split screen as u usually would then drag 2 more to any corner and they will highlight/snap in place. Also...for users who didnt know u can save a shortcut with up to 4 apps by touching the 2 lines at the bottom of the multiwindow bar, pressing create, then naming the combination whatever u would like to call it which will then be located at the top of the launcher when u open it

STOCK WIDGETS IN ANY LAUNCHER

View attachment 2914166

although this screenshot APPEARS to be a regular magazine home page in the touch wiz launcher if u look a lil closer then you will notice the dock with the app icons...now all of your stock samsung widgets can be used used in the your favorite launcher such nova or apex as well as om the lockscreen

MULTI INSTANCE

View attachment 2914216

ok i know what you're thinking...either "exactly how many browser windows do u need" or "how confused are u with all of that contradictory news" :confused: :laugh: As u have guessed...V2 now includes the ability to have more than one copy of the same app open at the same time
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] edan1979:
i wonder when will you pop up in this section... ^_^ with your custom...

@THEDEVIOUS1

no worry... the more the merrier... ^_^ i just release my normal build since no one does... kind of basic and nothing much.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] ayenzel:
Hi, I've just tried this rom, I'm still new and how to make the floating windows?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] riker147:
This, plus how do I add lock screen widgets. I'm not seeing it in settings.

Edit: Never mind. Figured out the lock screen.

Edit 2: Just saw the directions in post #1 for floating windows. Everything seems to be working fine. Thanks.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] kenkiller:
Very nice!!!
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] glensta:
Thank you Op for the Rom!

My WiFi won't turn on -did a clean flash, rebooted a couple of times. Any help?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] THEDEVIOUS1:
see second post for more info...thx

well...i was waiting on that since i had been having bluetooth/wifi issues which prevented me from releasing the rom earlier. Most important question...which device are u using (size & type)? One quick fix may be to change the "securestorage" setting in the build prop from "false" back to "true"...it may be that your modem/kernel dont match the rest of the rom which would mean u need to flash the NG2 stock odin firmware before u flash SuperSamsung. Also...which recovery are u using just out of curiosity?
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] glensta:
I'm using the 10.5 variant (SM-T800) and yes I had not odined the newer NG2 firmware. I just odined that now and the WiFi is working so that was probably it. I'll flash your rom in a bit after I'm set up. I was using openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-chagallwifi for my recovery. I'm betting flashing the Odin firmware will do the trick.

Thank you :good:
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] UpInTheAir:
Good stuff mate. Yes, I remember and thanks again for the work you did for my 7.7 ROM. A lot of users enjoyed it. :)

Just arrived through the door after being away the last month. Will start to look at the kernel in good time. Family and sleep time first. ;)

There might be some issues with the kernel and newer firmware. Still getting feedback to get things narrowed down. ...

There is a feature request in the kernel thread (Web view). Can't promise much as I'm no Dev, but am going to rebase the kernel from another source and with the ramdisk from the latest firmware. Might start downloading now and setup github.

Will also be looking at 10.5" kernel too, so lots to hopefully look forward to ;)

Will look forward to trying your ROM, but for the moment I use and test on rooted official firmware as I don't want to debug the user's own ROM.

In my kernel, I set secure storage to false in the ramdisk and fixes the wifi issue.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] THEDEVIOUS1:
no problem at all on the assistance with the rom...looks like it might be my turn to phone in a favor in the near future. yeah...i didnt want to touch the kernel in mine because thats actually what breaks the screen mirroring NOT root. As long as u have a factory recovery & kernel it will work ok...also as u have pointed out in the other thread there is a file that can be hacked to enable it but unfortunately it seems that the location still hasnt been found on 4.4.2 exynos devices & i know from personal experience on my lte tab pro with the snapdragon that it only worked with an altered recovery even with the fix...meaning if the kernel was touched then it would still be broken. The guy who hacked our file (@esgie) came up with a simple build prop edit that is supposed to work around that but i had to file an insurance claim on my pro & ended up replacing it with the tab s so i never got chance to test. Anyway...i said all of that to say that its believed that wireless display runs sum sort of checksum against the key/signature of the boot image or perhaps thats part of the same trustzone/secure storage issue as wifi. Speaking of which...I assumed that too which is why i already altered the build prop to false but before that i was running into a weird camera/bluetooth issue which i tracked to knox traces still left in the zip.

@ anyone with a definite answer...a quick question or 2 that are a bit off topic

has someone been able to confirm that the sixaxis app works with our tab through a bluetooth ONLY connection...in other words WITHOUT needing to be plugged into the tab with an otg cable?

So is this for T700 or T705? Wouldn't want to flash the wrong thing and break wifi etc. It's not clear in the thread title.

[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] le0.br4zuc4:
I flashed it on my T700 and have no issues. Working perfectly.

Does not
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] THEDEVIOUS1:
I apologize if i didnt make it clear enough but this is for ALL EXYNOS VERSIONS of the TAB S...if u look at the download section of the first post they are labeled with both wifi & lte

although its easy enough to add i purposely tried not to include alterations that were already handled by xposed modules....well one being wanam in particular especially when u consider all the work it would take to modify & maintain the code on 4 different devices. it does so much & is so good at it that even though i like my mods built directly in ive gotten used to installing it on every new device i own...so with that said if u need 4 way reboot, call & screen recording, volume key music control, want to add more apps to multiwindow plus a bunch of other stuff then i HIGHLY recommend wanam xposed module. If i find that a lot of users are steering clear of this rom because its missing that one feature then i may put it in an update but to be honest i dont see why they would...u will still need to add extra apps to your device for at least multiwindow so i say why not use xposed

First of all, great ROM! Thank you for your work!

I have a SM-t705 , the 8.4 LTE version.

I flashed STOCK NG2 and then this ROM and it works superb.

Only one issue: CPU Spy reports that Deep Sleep is never achieved. When it is iddle , it stays at 250Mhz.

Anyone else having this problem? Any clues on how to solve it?

Since last week I am proud owner of a galaxy tab S 10.5 LTE (SM-T805) and now I am lokking for a ROM and Kernel.

I am plannig following:

Maybe someone can tell me what makes sense ??

Is it possible to restore the original condition (because of the warranty) ??

So enough of the questions in the hope of some answers.

Is anybody else having same issue?

I use T705 model
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] THEDEVIOUS1:
I hope u were able to get it all sorted but if not then here goes a lil help...YES u will need philz OR cwm OR twrp and YES u will also need cfautoroot. Also...YES your warranty will be voided but other than that u will be able to flash it back to stock through odin

i have covered this before in the thread & to be honest the answer is probably not...first of all there will be a new firmware (NI*) out in a few more days and yet ANOTHER (NJ*) a few weeks after that, second it seems noone can EVER provide a changelog of whats actually new/fixed in these new releases & third its WAY too much work to decompile all of these apps just to re-add the same features when we will be getting ZERO extra benefit from it. So with that said...unless i have extra options to add or something to fix i will NOT keep up with every release each month so i apologize ahead of time guys

check the thread below...should be what u want

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-tab-s/themes-apps/4-multiwindows-galaxy-tab-s-root-req-t2817474

thats normal...should not affect operation in anyway

this has been covered several times throughout the thread but i will add a note to the op for future references (now known issue #3)...to make a long story short just flash the skyhigh kernel & u should be good to go

Great ROM but can't resolve camera problem. Tried replacing camera and filter apks and setting permissions as suggested but no joy. None of the buttons work. Also tried installing google cam but it would only work as a still with no option for video. Will try reverting to stock then reflashing. Still very grateful for the ROM though :)

Edit: Installed this rom after basic ng2. Re flashed basic and camera OK. Reflashed SS and camera problem came back. Might try basic + titanium backup of camera then SS and titanium restore?

Not sure what it might be related to but I started getting FCs in the last couple days on "S Planner" and "Calendar storage" shortly after bootup.

I disabled S Planner in TB... unsure of the implications of disabling calendar storage so I left that. Doesn't seem to have any significant impact. Just wondering if it's happening to anyone else. Installed SkyHigh 1.6 recently. That's about the only significant change I've made lately.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] hurray:
The camera on the super samsung-Rom is for the T-805 LTE Model. If you have a T-800 WiFi Model (as I have) you have to download the camera for the T-800 as posted.

The installation was a little bit tricky for me also the first time. First I have to delete the original apks. Then I was able to copy the T-800-camera-apks to /system/apk and set the correct permissions.

After a reboot the camera runs as normal.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] 4braid:
Thanks for the info. Mine is the 805 so maybe that's why the apks didn't work.
[Galaxy Tab S Android Development] hurray:
Yep. The camera is one of the autostarted apps. That prevents a simple overwrite with another apk with the same name.

Edit: yes, if you own the LTE Model (T-805) you don't need the extra camera apks. :D
