ive lost 2 in the last month. both times i ordered off amazon. i paid $10 for the 1st and $12 for the 2nd. both from the same company lol. anyways it fits the holder, it works, and it says samsung on it, so i assume its official

One good way to tell if its original . Pop off the button cap(mad to come off) Check to see if you see Adjustment screws on the Pots... If so its most likely Samsung. Or at least Better made then most of the clones.I have got extra one from Amazon

How this infection is made, according to this news that you read about? I think that the best protection are the user habits. If you don't enter in malicious sites or install app from any source, you won't have any trouble.

Unless there is a bug in rooted devices, but i guess if this is the case, we would have more news about that.

This app can help monitor connections for your device and where your data is going, which companies are accessing it, etc.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.viaforensics.viaprotect.android.agent

Its debatable whether having root exposes any further vulnerability to malware, hackers, etc. Most custom ROMs remove bloat and things like logging apps that would potentially send back details of your activity. They actually allow you to have more options to manage your privacy more closely, as you can use app ops to restrict permissions that particular apps have access to. If you've seen any news in the last couple of years, you'll have seen that agencies like the NSA, GCHQ have back doors to a lot of different things and can access your data in various ways if they so desire. Though they're really not likely to be snooping at such an individual level due to the masses of data that they monitor, chances are everyone's data passes through some sort of system.

The below thread is also a good read as its a current insight into root, security, etc from one of the most highly regarded android developers.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jshamlet:
Rooting, by itself, is simply taking over administrative control of your device from your carrier or phone's manufacturer. That's it. You are now the "system administrator" of a tiny computer. That also means that you are now responsible for it, and have the power to either dramatically improve security and performance, or brick it six ways to Sunday. IOW, gaining root isn't inherently dangerous, nor will it "instantly open you up to malware", anymore than setting up the administrative account on your Windows or Mac computer will, but the amount of responsibility you have just increased dramatically. This is a large reason for why all phones, including Nexus devices, are shipped with secure boot and locked boot loaders. Most people neither want, nor can handle, that kind of responsibility.

In fact, if you do your homework and pay attention, you can make your device far more secure as well. I have iptables set up to default deny, so malware would have to find a way to work around that. I also have adaway, which not only cuts down on the ads, it also cuts down on malware served by hacked ad servers. With some distros, like CyanogenMod, you can also trim unnecessary permissions from apps, like not letting them access the camera, microphone, etc. Stock KitKat still supports AppOps with a separate app, so you can do some of that in stock as well. It goes without saying that I don't have CarrierIQ on any of my devices as well.

As a suggestion, turn off side-loading unless you absolutely need it. If you do side-load, make sure you know exactly where that APK came from, and that it is trustworthy. Avoid "pirate" APK's (unless you happen to personally know the pirate) That, combined with getting your carrier's bloat off, will do wonders in the "not getting malware and viruses" department - and is true whether you rooted or not.

How is NeatROM different from SlimKat? / why is it smoother?

I made the switch from SlimBean to NeatROM nearly a year ago and haven't looked back. Back then I noticed considerable improvement in both battery life and device smoothness. This caused me to assume that NeatROM had some deep, under-the-hood changes from the standard SlimKat build (apart from obvious tweaks like Root enabled as default, ES file explorer, etc). Ever since then, I've sporadically looked for a more detailed explanation of what makes NeatROM different, but I've never been able to find any detailed information about this! I was hoping that someone here with a bit more development understanding could answer this question for me? I'd certainly be grateful :)

Any chance of releasing a 9.0 stable?

Hi,

This ROM is the best kitkat ROM I ever tried on my s3 - and I've tried many.

The only thing I found a bit problematic with this is Lockscreen with 4*4 pattern + lockscreen notifications are a bit laggy, even though working fine.

Now that SlimRoms released 9.0 stable a few days ago - is there a chance of this Rom getting an update? I'm still not ready to switch to Lollipop, going to let things stabilize a bit more.

Hi,

Thanks for the very helpful neat rom. My S3 is much faster and smooth now.

I am facing the following 2 issues:-

1. When I try to join any meetings, first I dial in a normal meeting number and getting into a call.

During the call I need to access the keypad and dial the meeting ID, for some reason it doesnt accept the

Meeting ID. I try the same with other phone it works fine, it was also working fine with Samsung Andriod.

Please help me out with this issue.

2. My screen flickers, happens very rarely. No effect, no freeze after flicker, phone works fine.

This was happening even before I installed neat rom. So I doubt it is anything to do with this.

But in case you know any information it would be helpful

Thanks,

I hear they lower the res from 1440 to 1080 in the G3 so is there a way to lower the screen resolution in the G2 from 1080p to 720p?

I couldn't find anything about it in search.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enginmanap:
Screen resolution of an lCD is a physical attribute, it cannot be changed. You can change the software to renderer the image so you would get a lower resolution data to show, and since android source is available, it is technically possible. I doubt anybody tried, because our device has a adequite computing power to generate 1080p images. On the other hand, lg g3 has almost same power, but it displays almost double size image. For g2, it won't worth the lost of quality.

The issue is, since LCD will display it on its physical resolution(there is no other way), your image quality will be far worse than the down sampled version. For example, if you render the sceen at 720p, and show it on a 720p 5.2" display, you will lose ~%55 of your data, but since you render your source on this resolution, will be sharp, just won't have so much detail. If you display this 720p image in 1080p display however, screen resolution cannot be changed, so your screen will try to calculate the missing %55, and then show you the result. Since there is no original data, it assumes the missing pixels were like the ones around them, which means your result will be blurry.

As a side note, old tube displays does not have a resolution, they can support various resolutions. We used to set resolution to our taste between speed and detail back then.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
enigmanp covered the technical aspect of it and I'll just follow up with my own personal experience.

I had a chinese android tablet running at 2048x1536 resolution, the same resolution commonly found in iPad tablets.

My Android tablet sometimes perform sluggish because of the high resolution. Even though the CPU was a quad core 1Ghz, it's still chinese and the GPU wasn't great either. So I lowered the resolution and everything was blurred and not sharp at all (due to the reasons enigmamp explained above). I DID notice an improvement in overall speed, but apps started misbehaving and it was all a huge mess.

Now the only reason I did that was because I found my tablet lacking smoothness/performance. I just don't quite see why you'd want to do that on the G2 since the CPU and GPU can clearly handle even the most intensive 3D games on high detail. Could you please explain?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] desertmod1:
Mainly to save on battery.

So why it doesn't get blurry on the G3 then?
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vPro97:
If it's to save battery, I doubt you'll see much of a change.

The GPU is working on a smaller load but most of the time it's running at 200 MHz anyway. But I'm no expert, I'm just telling what I know and what I've experienced. I'll head over to the g3 thread to read more!
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lavafire:
Reducing the number of pixels would help you to save battery if you are using a phone with AMOLED screen, sadly it is not the case with LG G2. So even by turning the resolution down, you are using pretty much the same amount of battery as you would with full 1080p resolution.

If you want to go ahead with it anyway, there are plenty of apps on the play store which does this. Just search "resolution" in the play store and you'll find them. However I don't think this will help your battery life at all, nor do I recommend it.
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] villain222:
Late addition

Well, when i found out this was an option i just had to tinker. I have a G2 that is my daily driver and a S6 for back up. I changed it to 900x1600 480dpi and it works just fine. The camera touch focus is a little off, but otherwise it is sooper smooth now. I also throttle the CPU down. So both together I get a good experience and decent battery life. I know this is a late response, but to anyone out there with root and some lackluster performance might want to give this a shot. I needed to reboot once to correct some keyboard skewing. I also adjusted the height of the keyboard to compensate for the change in real estate. Works like a champ, no real noticeable degradation in viewing pics or videos. I'm going to try this on my Nook Hd+. It needs a shot in the arm (no pun intended).
