[Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nem3sis AUT:
As per title, when I'm looking up my Mac address on my note 4 Intl it reports back its NULL when on mobile data. (didn't check on wireless router)

Although internet and telephony working fine one of my apps cannot verify against license server.

So anyone maybe know what could be the problem here, is this a common problem and can it be fixed? What could be causing this?

I'm running official CM12.1 latest nightly. I noticed this first time when I had flashed cm12.

I asked this question in cm thread but yeah, I guess people are busy bc nobody answered. Its a tad off topic too I guess.

Thanks for any helpful input.

This new app works very well for downloading animated gifs from twitter:

It extracts the GIF directly, not like others that only download the mp4.

Enjoy it!

Hey there,

I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (octacore running Android 5.0.1) and one of my friends has a Samsung Galaxy S3 (quadcore running Android 4.1.2), also rooted. Yesterday we met and thought of putting them to a test. So we used Haxplorer to search a random number (the same number on both devices) in a random game, and what we had noticed was that the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 was way too much slower in finding a result than the Samsung Galaxy S3, infact it was about 5x slower!

Now my question is, does anybody know why this happens? I know that the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is way above the Samsung Galaxy S3 in specs, but still every time we try we get the same result. I also tried restarting and force stopping all other apps and still without even doing any of those to the S3 it just beat my Note4 by the mile!

Please someone explain to me how this is possible! If any more information is needed please ask me to provide you with anything.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yhvo2gt9:
Hi all,

I have a Moto G 2014 XT1068 (Titan) running stock Android 4.4.4. The device is rooted and has TWRP recovery version 2.8.4.0 installed on it.

The device is not encrypted, and this makes me nervous. My previous device was a Nexus 4 running CM10 with TWRP installed. It was encrypted, but at some point TWRP stopped being able to unlock encrypted phones in order to perform tasks. I was able to reinstall an older version of TWRP on that device and it worked fine again with the encryption so that was not a problem.

So my question is, does any version of TWRP for Moto G (Titan) work with an encrypted device? Or if I encrypt my phone, will I lose access to the recovery because it can't decrypt anything?

Cheers.

Since the S6 is very slippery but very good looking because of the glass, do you use a case because you want to be safe or do you use a skin to retain the phones thin body or you prefer it naked without anything on and around it?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ipaq_101:
Skin and Case! :good:
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ThePagel:
Definitely a case with shock absorbing properties. I'm not spending close to a grand on a glass encased phone just so it can have cracks on it.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] DevonSloan:
I think the phone is gorgeous, but use a Verus aluminum bumper in order to get low drop protection and camera protection while keeping the phone mostly original looking. If it weren't for the protruding camera, I've consider carrying the phone bare. (Though I would be concerned with slippage.)

For comparison, I didn't hate the looks the of the S4, but I wasn't thrilled with them either so I put a Spigen Neo Hybrid on, which gave it a look that I liked more, while still looking like a phone and not a case. (Most people I showed my S4 to loved it and didn't realize it was a case.)

I think it's interesting that you bring this up because I asked a similar question in the "show us your case" thread, and people took offense to what I was asking. My basic question was "Do you use big UAG/Otterbox cases merely for protection, or do you prefer the look over the look of the bare phone." I guess I worded it poorly, as I mostly got defensiveness of case choices. Hopefully your thread gets better responses.

(In my photo below, the difference in screen glare and body color is only from a difference in lighting - I used different setups on different days and didn't match the screen lighting. There is no "glare" from the Verus case.)

[Galaxy S6 Accessories] lowjinyik:
I use a Dbrand skin and tempered glass screen protector in normal days. Just bought a spigen rugged armour as I'm gonna go on a 3 day camp and I don't wanna risk breaking it.

The dbrand skin should suffice for everyday use. It protects the rear glass from cracking if I ever drop it. And the tempered glass helps with the front glass. The only thing that is unprotected in the event of a drop is my sides.

It's your choice, do you like the feel of the S6 naked? Or would you rather have a cheap piece of TPU protecting it?

Also, if you choose to go naked/skin, the chamfered edges of the aluminium is very soft so it scratches rather easily. You can get a metal bumper to help with drop and impact protection on the sides.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] FluxionFluff:
Case. I would consider a skin, but the extra protection is nice. No way I'm carrying this phone naked. Then again, I never carry phones naked anyway.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] dgold21:
Dbrand black leather skin on the back, otherwise naked. I hate cases, I'd rather pay for insurance and deductible for replacement than compromise the look and feel of a phone I like.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] japjit100:
I just use screen guard both sides it looks and feels good
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] DextarRogue:
I had an iron shield on it but removed it about a week ago because the aluminum bumper was killing my GPS signal. Somehow in that week time I got a scratch on my screen. Make sure to put a screen protector on too!
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] xdviper:
Going naked. I did not pay $650+ to put this in a $5 case. I want to enjoy the phone as it was meant to be. I only have a tampered glass on top and that's good enough for me.

[XDA Assist] galaris:
Hello everybody,

I am new here, this is my very first post :)

Upon discovering how big this forum is I've decided to ask for some guidance here.

I have been given a Windows Phone 8.1 application to test for security issues.

The test will focus on reverse engineering the application, from both static and dynamic point of view, as I don't have access to the source code, however I have no experience in the mobile field.

For testing purposes, I'll need some assistance to choose a phone to test on, keeping in mind that I'll have to root it.

1.) Which part of the forum could help to choose a windows phone that is rootable?

2.) Which section can I ask about security testing, debugging and reverse engineering windows phone applications?

Thank you!

I would like to use a custom ROM on my TMO LG G3, but I'm finding Bluetooth range to be horrible. With stock, I can use my headset within about 30 feet of the phone, and my Android Wear works throughout my home. On custom ROMs, I can't even keep the phone in a pocket on the opposite side of my body from the headset without having signal disruption.

Anyone else having this problem? Any guidance other than sticking with stock?

I see many threads on this forum regarding WM6 version in other language than english (ea. Italian, German, Spanish, etc.). Any one can help us (italian/german/spanish guys) to make a WM6 rom in ours language?

I see that on Tytn forum a french guy make a translation in french of WM6 using mui from emulator image.

I (We) need to know:

- how to exctract .mui file from emulator image? --> DONE! :) (see below)

- what .mui file we need from emulator image?

- what file need to be translated (ea. initflash/*.rgu) and how translate that?

- how add (where?) .mui file to a rom or rom kitchen?

How to dump the wm6 files

1- Dowload the images that you want here:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=38c46aa8-1dd7-426f-a913-4f370a65a582&DisplayLang=en#filelist

Available languages are:

0404 CHT Chinese Traditional
0804 CHS Chinese Simplified
0405 CSY Czech
0406 DAN Danish
0413 NLD Dutch
0409 USA English
0407 GER German
0408 ELL Greek
040b FIN Finnish
040c FRA French
040e HUN Hungarian
0410 ITA Italian
0411 JPN Japanese
0412 KOR Korean
0414 NOR Norwegian
0415 PLK Polish
0416 PTB Portuguese Brazil
0816 PTG Portuguese Portugal
0418 ROM Romanian
0419 RUS Russian
041b SKY Slovak
0c0a ESN Spanish
041d SVE Swedish
041f TRK Turkish

2- Install them in your computer.

3- Take the image that you want from the installation folder.
For example, if you have downloaded the images for NLD language look in the folder "C:\Program Files\Windows Mobile 6 SDK\PocketPC\Deviceemulation\0413":
The image for Hermes is: PPC_NLD_GSM_VR.BIN (I'm not 100% sure)

- Download Tadzio's imgfs excelent tools in:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=298327

- Unzip the tools along with the image in any folder.

- Rename the image to A.BIN (to make the next commands easier to type).

- Open a D.O.S. command window and perform these commands:

> NBSPLIT -emu A.BIN
(it generates two files: A.BIN.EXTRA and A.BIN.PAYLOAD)

> IMGFSFROMNB A.BIN.PAYLOAD IMGFS.BIN
(it generates the file IMGFS.BIN)

> IMGFSTODUMP IMGFS.BIN

And that's all. Files are dumped in /Dump directory

Any help is apprecieted.

Any one can make a simple "how to" to start the translation project?

I hope that with some help I (We) can make WM6 rom in other languange...

same here, there is no prob. 2 extract lang dependant files. U will need all Lang packages from emulator ( ...Lang_0409 or your language code) so at the en U have folders like OEM_Lang_0409, Phone_Lang_0409 .... (0409=WWE) Next step is initflashes.dat (in OEM_Lang_XXXX) and *.rgu files. Here i'm stuck. DOnt know how.

After that u simply replace packages in rom dump and compile rom.

Now, in the following days i will try and do it too and if i succede I will provide you guys the full step by step tutorial, because so many have already requested it and it's driving me nuts already

I wouldn't want the OS in my native language ...but hey, it's a test and i love tests.

I am thinking that this is the easy way to do it :

1. get ahold of the .mui files for your language
2. get a rom of your choice
3. rename your .mui files so that you can replace the ones in the rom (not necessarily)
4. edit carefully the iniflashfiles.dat (just save, last line blank an delete first 2 bytes FF FE with winhex)
5. edit the .hv files - > this is a pain in the ass because all directions to
windows\program files\...for example...should be changed acording to your language or they won't work
I guess you should edit the :
6. boot.rgu and boot.hv also because they also contain directions to original language system paths - theese files are in XIP

and that should be it ... if i didn't missed any parts

I tried to make a german one.

I copied all mui files from terra dump - sys and oem folder - and renamed it to 0409 - so i don´t have to change all registry settings.

But without editing the rgu (.hv) files it doesn´t boot.

SO like anichillus say - you will have to edit the boor.rgu also.

I work in the moment on the same!

WWE means World Wide Edition :-> but the most time it is in English, only some Smartphones have all Language!!!

My way to see the different betwen any Language are:

Extract any examples of simulare Roms! The easyest way are the Microsoft Rom Images from Emulator with tadzio's tools.

Compare the Dump Folder -> you see all different rgu dsm mui and dll files! Yes you read right! MUI and RGU are not enough!

Compare all Registry Hives -> you found a lot of different entrys and you can see, some Programs need Regkeys to switch to a other Language. The Basic switching are over MUILang= key.

Some RGU Files have different settings.

Here the different in the Registry Hives!

Here the different in the Dump Folder!

My Problem is in the moment ... i cant create my own working Emulator Image! Some troubles if i want build the working Rom. But to develope is the Emulator the best way! Its the only way to have a debug screen and you can see missing files etc ... :-/

Next Problem ... if i insert the different files in a Prophet Rom ... some settins are missing -> Stuck at Splace Screen 2 and ... no ... initfiles.dat is not wrong :-( i have try some different way to test my files ... use a working rom and copy over activsync the new files (this work) after that i change the MUI settings in the registry -> reboot -> stuck an Splace screen 2 after set the MUI settings :-/

Next Rom i use a Example are Roms from Startrek. They can switch betwen 8 languages. This is my goal! To create a Rom Based an the switching future from Startrek and store all language in the ext_rom. But in the moment ... i think its imposible. Some cooking tools can extract a emulator rom image but cant build a new on and the next point is the debuging port to see errors. without them its impossible to create a working rom ...........

This is the app i'm talking about:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.elsdoerfer.android.autostarts&hl=en

The app opens fine and the first time you try to disable something Supersu pops up to ask if you want to grant it root access, but after that a white box appears and nothing happens.

Attached a screenshot of that white box.

I've already tried several things but to no avail: flashed a custom kernel so SE is permissive instead of enforcing, deleting the root access and reauthorize it, etc.

It's not lollipop because it works on my Tab S and Note 3 (before) both running Lollipop...

Tried another app as well (forgot the name) and receive a message that root access failed (if i remember correctly). Clean Master and Elixir 2 are doing the job at the moment, but Autostarts is much easier to use for that kind of stuff.

I'm not having root access problems with another apps.
