[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Aqib Ayub:
I just bought a Samsung Galaxy S3 Verizon and was testing it.

Then I realized not a single hidden/Secret Code like : *#0# , *#06# , *#*#4636*#*# are working all.

Then I downloaded Anycut.apk to open "Testing mode" with a shortcut but it's not working too. It's showing "Application Not Installed"

Any Help????

I've been seeing this a lot. They were more than likely disabled by Samsung as they were codes for technicians not for the general public

I was able to bring up one code, *#06# which shows you your IMEI, however the other two don't work. I'm not on a locked bootloader. I tried the 4636 on my Nexus and S3 and it pulls up the testing screen on both phones

Hi,

So after selling my nexus 5, buying a G3, returning a G3 and finally getting a Z2 I'm wondering if any UK owners have got the OTA for lollipop yet. I have the D6503 Unlocked Uk (eu) version from amazon.

Unsolved_Mistry
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArrowHunt3R:
I too got the EU version from Amazon Italy. And yes, I got the OTA and I live in Ireland but that shouldn't make a difference..

You need PC companion to flash it though.. Connect you phone and let PC companion install drivers and as soon as its done, you will be notified of an software update..
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Unsolved_Mistry:
So installing the drivers on the PC companion software will allow me to receive OTAs? Surely it will receive OTAs itself like any other phone or does the PC companion flash lollipop onto the phone, I want to avoid flashing for now during the warranty and stick to OTAs or methods which won't void anything.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ArrowHunt3R:
Sony works a bit differently, Yes you get normal OTA's but to jump to lollipop, you need to use their PC companion. It doesn't void warranty or anything. PC Companion is an official Sony product.
[Java for Android App Development] Jorexapps:
Hi,

I would like to add some specific calculations to my app but I want to keep it safe. How can I do it? Maybe I should use C++ and link it from code in Java?
[Java for Android App Development] Masrepus:
There is a so called proguard feature for building apks which obfuscates variable, class and method names but maybe this won't meet your security visions

--------------------

Phone: Nexus 4

OS: rooted Lollipop LRX21T

Bootloader: unlocked

Recovery: TWRP 2.8.2.0
[Java for Android App Development] Jorexapps:
I'm using ProGuard, but it is not hiding algorithm into binary code. I'm gonna need more advanced solution.
[Java for Android App Development] Argurth:
I think that, unfortunately, you can't. There will alway be a way to find out the code you've written.

If it's really very important, one of the best solution should be to create a server and execute you algorithm on it, but the user will have to be connected to internet to use your app and it could make some people leave it.
[Java for Android App Development] grimaz:
Put your secret code to server and call for calculations.

You can also use different sort of "black boxes" (if your apk running on some custom hardware).

Finally, you can try to use native code with heavy obfuscation, but I do not know reliable tools for android (arm) like VMProtect for x86/x64 code.
[Java for Android App Development] surlac:
There is no 100% protection if you're shipping your algorithm with APK.

I would think of solving the problem from legal standpoint - file a patent. If your algorithm worthwhile you'll get the patent, otherwise there is no valid reason to put huge effort to protect it.
[Java for Android App Development] Jorexapps:
Thanks for all the answers. So there is no possible solution to protect algorithm at least as much as it is "hidden" in compiled C++ code?
[Java for Android App Development] immap99:
I always write the secret code in JNI. (such as DRM) The java code always can be decompiler.
[Java for Android App Development] BitGriff:
The best ways are:

1. Move algorithm to your server, execute on it, and send result to Android client.

But, this method has disadvantages:

- Your app will not work in offline mode.

- You will have extra load on your server. If you have many app users, you can have heavy server load.

2. Move algorithm code to C/C++ using Android NDK.

3. Generate algorithm at runtime. Split algorithm to many parts and insert dull parts (they do something, but don't affect algorithm - they are just for obfuscation purposes).

Something like this:

// algorithm part
interface Part {
double process(double arg0, double arg1);
}

class DullPart1 implements Part {
public double process(double arg0, double arg1) {
double i = 0;
i++;
i += arg1;
// and more dull actions here
}
}

Then make code that will call each part in predefined sequence and insert dull parts to it.

Hey, I can't post anywhere else because of post count but I hope zephiK sees it here. The last zip for Nexus 7 3G of Chroma is not possible to install because it has the grouper binaries. Please could you update it to be able to install it?

A million thank you's to everyone who has worked so hard on this! I'm only a few hours in but I am really enjoying it, when I thought, "welp might as well try a couple more lollipop roms before going back to jellybean" I didn't expect this! In fact it kept me up all night (in a good way). Camera is working great with CameraMX but still having GPS issues, even after doing the selinux permissive via terminal: "su", then "setenforce 0." I mostly use this for games and browsing at home, so neither of these are a deal breaker, but after reading through the ROM thread I figured I should try :D

I know grouper is a small user base, but it's so nice to have your lollipop and eat it too. Much appreciation!

Now GPS works, not sure what changed, I just ran the same "setenforce 0" from a root terminal and it popped right up.

F2FS Support???

I know the OP states that the rom doesn't support F2FS but some people are apparently using it with f2fs by flashing a f2fs capable kernel. if this is true:

1. Which kernel is built into the ROM

2. What format will the ROM use upon installion? ext4 or just leaves the partition as it is (I already have f2fs which is why I'm asking)

3. Can I use the latest M-Kernel on this if it doesn't already have this kernel

Thank you in advance
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zerileous:
1. I believe it is still the stock kernel for this device. The person working on this device hasn't been able to integrate Franco with it yet.

2. System *MUST* be ext4. I tried to format cache to f2fs but the kernel just reformatted it back to ext4.

3. You'll have to read the parent thread, but I believe the person doing the N7 development said that was possible using the "anykernel" framework, or pretty much make sure you don't replace the ramdisk or boot.img shipped with the ROM. But again, read through the parent thread for definitive answers.

I'm just curious and haven't browsed XDA for a while. My curiosity got me to the point of posting in G+ and Twitter about CM installer reverting Oxygen OS to CM11. So many people installed Oxygen OS and because of missing features, they want to revert back to CM. I manually flash and root my devices. I know about CM installer which installs a stable version on a device without you doing anything but I've never used it. My question is, can a CM installer be used to revert back to CM11 without any issues. I don't have a problem flashing Oxygen or reverting or even bricking my device, it's just that I'm curious. If somebody could answer this, it will help a lot of newbies and others who are afraid of bricking their device or doesn't feel safe to go with the hand on method of flashing, fastboot techniques etc... and clear my curiosity too.

If you read up on how to downgrade from OxygenOS or even CM12, you'll find out why you can't just reflash CM11 with CM Installer. Both O2OS and CM12 flash a new modem that won't work with CM11. The modem has to be reverted manually.

Performance-wise the GT-I9505 does not compare to the GT-I9506.

I don't think the GT-I9505 will have problems with the game your S3 had problems with.

GTA San Andreas runs smooth on this device, so does Asphalt 8. The newest Brother in Arms also run pretty smooth. Haven't tried any other high-end games. But the S4 shouldn't have any major problems.

[Moto X Q&A] mikeck:
I just bought my son a used Moto X (2013). He's already set it up and installed his apps. When he accepted an OTA update (4.4.3 to 4.4.4) it failed and we discovered that TRWP recovery was installed. He would like to revert to a stock recovery so that he can accept Lollipop OTA when available.

I can easily install 4.4.4 with the images and instructions from Motorola but this would cause him extra work as he would have to set up the phone again.

I assume I can just flash the stock system and recovery image but Motorola only offers the images for 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 not the 4.4.3 that he has installed.

Would it be safe to install one of those? Which one? Would that preserve the apps he's already installed?

Thanks in advance.
