I appreciate the reply. I was just in Edmonton, Canada about a month ago, and I was using Roger's network with no problem with my Softbank phone. I had no issues in terms of making or receiving calls, I would assume it would be the same with their 3G data, I appreciate the response. I'll most likely be switching to Cingular soon, I'm out of contract with Tmobile and I was already considering the switch anyways.

Edmonton was a nice change of pace from Houston, I had a great time and people were very friendly. Beautiful country by the way, it was the first time I actually seen snow, yes I was bread in the Houston heat for most of my life.

It's good to hear my western friends were hospitable. Ottawa and Washington have had a few differences over the past decade, so it's always good to hear that it hasn't affected the general public's sence of decency and good-will. Glad you had the chance to see the snow too, although, most of us are usually happy to see it go in March... I've had the pleasure of visiting a number of the States, including some in the south, but haven't had the pleasure of visiting the Lone Star State as yet but hopefully I'll get there someday to see y'all.

Almost forgot. Take care, eh... ;)

Just got a T-Mobile Verio II and Skype crashes when making or receiving a call. This happens on WiFi and HSDPA. Is there any reason for the crash? Anything I could try to get it working?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] layer1:
Just tossing an update out there.

- Skype still swallows nearly all available memory.

- No functionality for video call.

- By default after install, uses speaker phone.

- Would not work by default with Bluetooth headset.

Still far from perfect. IMO, nothing has changes on the lastest Release or Beta since the last release.

Hope this helps and please correct me if I wrong on something.
[Sony Xperia M2] MegaSharkXDA:
Sony Xperia phones usually had a shatter-proof film on the scratch-resistant screen as standard.

The thing is... the shatter-proof film was not scratch resistant at all... and so I removed the shatter-proof film from my previous Xperia smartphones (Xperia P and Xperia ion).

Yesterday I found a small scratch on my Xperia M2 screen (yes, I was using a flip cover but something must have been trapped inside it or something).

Does the Xperia M2 also have this shatter-proof film on the screen as the previous Xperia smartphones? If so, I will attempt to remove it (it was very difficult to remove it from the Xperia P and very, very difficult from the Xperia ion, but I was able to do it on my own).

Thanks.

[Security Discussion] unclefab:
Trust no-one, that's the first amendment for privacy concerned people...

So can we trust the compilers, IDE's etc.?

I made some tests with Eclipse, and the results are not very encouraging.

I created a hello world app.

This app has no permissions and it's supposed to only display its "hello world" message, but when I checked with Xprivacy if it had tried to access data I found out that it had requested access to:

1-phone/Configuration.MNC (cell tower),

2-phone/Configuration.MCC (cell tower),

3-identification/serial (the phone's serial number)

4-storage/sdcard.

Not bad but wait, there's more!

Then, I passed the app through Privacy Blocker, and it said that helloworld wanted to know my network type code.

I decompiled the app, removed the whole /smali/android folder, recompiled and reinstalled the app, now it doesn't want to know my network type anymore (but it stills tries to access 1, 2, 3, 4).

That means that there's something in the smali/android folder that requests the network type.

Note that this folder is added covertly since one would never know it's there unless one decompiles the app with apktool, and that the app works without it (actually one can see it in the libs in the Eclipse project, but a newbie wouldn't know that it's added in the app's smalis since it's not in the src folder).

Then I added a simple "search" button in the layout and in the main activity, and now the app wants to access, on top of the 4 above mentioned fields, system/queryIntentActivities.

Note that the app works even with everything restricted in Xprivacy.

To my understanding part of the problem comes from Eclipse and part comes from the Android OS itself, but I'd like to know what other people with more knowledge than me think about it:)

[Security Discussion] unclefab:
Thank you very much for your time Sir, and thank you for this nice and personalised answer, but I already knew about libraries, and anyway you completely missed the point.

The point is:

1-why a very simple hello world app built on eclipse requires private data access?

2-why that lib, that requests access to some data behind my back, is added to the final app whereas it's not needed?

I add that I'm building other projects (and it's actually from there that I understood that something was wrong and that I decided to make a plain hello world app to check it out) and same story, data access is added without my consent.

Oh well, nobody seems to care about the matter, and I don't care if people don't care so just tell me if you want me to remove this thread and let's forget about it...

How can i install cwm using terminal emulator,...
[Sony Xperia M] The Deciphering Joker:
Why !

I Dont understand why you would want to do that. Fastboot/flashing is a good secure way..:)

But Still if you want to try out without the Computer. i Hear Flashify- On Google Play will do that for you. All you need is the appropriate Image file In this case the CWM image.

I havent tried it yet. But go ahead and let us know :)
[Sony Xperia M] iffam:
Ok

Steps for flashing cwm

Can u tell me the steps por flashing cwm usin flashtool on fastboot mode. i got this. (sorry my english, iam from argentina) thanks

View attachment 2933371
[Sony Xperia M] The Deciphering Joker:
There You Go !

FlashTool wont install the CWM it will just help you get into the bootloader mode..

YOU NEED -

1. Fastboot Drivers

2. Proper CWM Image file.

3. USB Debugging Enabled on your phone

What you need is adb drivers and fastboot.. Search for Fastboot drivers for Xperia M. you will get them easily...

After you get them. Unzip them to say C drive. Open up the folder you will something like py_cmd. Open it up.

You will get the terminal Screen (Command Prompt) Also make sure you boot image of cwm is in the same folder.

Connect phone with usb cable

Type in following commands

1. adb devices (Gives you list of devices). your phone should be listed.

2. adb reboot-bootloader (Your phone reboots)

3. fastboot flash boot [the name of your cwm image file].img (file is transfered)

4. fastboot reboot

And Done :)

Put this up in hurry. so if you have any problems ping me !:D
[Sony Xperia M] gamer649:
That's only for unlocked bootloader as you can't flash different .img files onto the phone with a locked Bootloader.

I would like to customise my S4 Mini

But some questions before beginning

Which CWM shoul I install?

CWM Recovery 6.XXX or [CWM Advanced Edition] PhilZ Touch

Next step, what is the différence between OFFICIAL ROM and UNOFFICIAL ROM?

[ROM][4.4.4][I9195/I9190][OFFICIAL] LiquidSmooth v3.2 - Nightly:0808

[ROM][GT-I9195/9190] [UNOFFICIAL] [AOSP][KK] [20140623] **C-RoM** - v7.1 : 4.4.4

Which one will be better and why?

And perhaps last : How can I save all my data and apps before installing a Custom ROM?

And how can I restore them without any pb

Thanks and Tchusss :good:

[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flatric:
If you use PhilZ touch you'll have a touch UI in your recovery in the other version you have to use hardware buttons to navigate. Unofficial means that the Rom isn't buil from the original devs of the Rom but from someone else who ported it to our device and official means the Rom is built by the original devs of the Rom.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Waltee:
I'd use PhilZ Touch personally, there are a few more options with it, you can easily navigate and there's a file manager you can use from there as well (think it's called Aroma from the top of my head, could be wrong). The differences of official and unofficial have been said already, but which is better is completely dependant on what you're looking for in a custom ROM.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YuriPan:
Hi there. I have a KFHD7 (old model) running CM11 (the latest monthly) and I have a serious issue with my bluetooth. I am not quite sure when it happened, could have happened before I first flashed CM (before I was running Kinology).

I can send files normally to other people, I cannot receive any though. Makes sense because my bluetooth folder is really odd. When I go to /sdcard I have the Bluetooth folder, but inside it there's another Bluetooth folder and in it another and another... In general, this thing doesn't end. If I try deleting any of these folders through a file explorer app, the app crashes, if I try doing it through windows explorer when I've got my tablet hooked on my pc, the device stops responding. :eek:

Any ideas? I don't care if I'm stuck with this folder in my device (it's empty so it doesn't take up any space), but I'd like to at least be able to receive files so if there's a way to create another bluetooth folder, this works as well. Please help me out!

[Galaxy Note 3 General] mab981:
OK - just got a Note 3 (got in quick when I heard rumours of a Note 4 about to launch) and I'm loving it. I upgraded from a Galaxy S3 and the extra screen size is wonderful. I've also fitted an S-View case which is very convenient, but I have a grumble about the way in which it interacts with S Voice. I tend to keep my phone in my pocket and use it via a headset (wired or Bluetooth) most of the time - this is particularly relevant with the Note which is such a large lump that it can be difficult to get out of a pocket quickly! The trouble is that when I call out "Hi Galaxy", it pops up a message in the S-View window telling me to open the case! Any one know how to set it (possibly patch) to work with the case closed?

With the old S3 (fitted with a basic case), it had no idea if the case was open or closed. Set to Hands Free mode and with a headset in, the phone was completely useable tucked away in a pocket almost all the time.
[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] Gadgety:
Apps I purchased through the Samsung store, most notably Autodesk's Sketchbook Pro "optimized for the Note" won't update unless the new agreement with Samsung is accepted. This requires accepting KNOX. Meanwhile, purchasing the same app on Google's Play store, provides updates without that same requirement.

I'm not really into the details on what KNOX entails, but afaik it means if a user roots or installs a custom rom, device warranty is broken. Correct?

Meanwhile Samsung is going to offer Nokia's HERE app through its store. So far details on the HERE app are scarce and it will be released when the new Tizen watch from Samsung is available. The unclarity is whether the HERE will be available for all or only for the Tizen watch buyers.

Regardless, my question is, is KNOX enough of a detriment to avoid Samsung's app store? For the time being, I'm running the original ROM, and Android 4.1.2.

Found the solution https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=3&v=JOEu8YFV_2U

You should look for line "ro.sf.hwrotation='180"'.

and Change it to "0".

IF "ro.sf.hwrotation = 90" Change it to "270", If "ro.sf.hwrotation = 270" Change it to "90"

If you hold all buttons and slide the battery in you can get the "Test Screen" to show.... and on mine to install the .pac file you have to hold the volume down, power and home buttons while sliding the battery in.....
