Dude it's 2015. I hate to say it, but anything electronic with an internet connection is a potential (read probable) spyware machine. Do you know how Google, Apple, Facebook, Twitter, etc. business model works? How do you think it's all free? Advertising, but not the way we classically understood it. With any of those services (and similar ones) you are voluntarily (but maybe unknowingly, this is why the EULA are always so long and verbose) offering up information about yourself: your likes, dislikes, tastes, artistic sensibilities, friends, family, enemies, occupation, address, you name it. Maybe these details seem trivial on their own, but together these are a goldmine of information for 's advertising department. Google et. al. sell these to the highest bidder(s) and thus our beloved android/ipods/facebookery remains free, companies can target their advertising with horrifying precision, and privacy is truly dead and I'm not just a tinfoil hat nut for saying so. And of course I haven't even mentioned where the government comes in to play in this mess.

All cell phones come equipped with a gps tracker that can be instantly activated by a third party with the right tools.

I'm glad Finland is more enlightened when it comes to privacy and civil liberties but the NSA knows no jurisdictional bounds, just ask Germany (and Angela Merkel in particular).

TLDR: In 2015 it is childishly naive to not assume that any electronic device you own can and will be used to monitor you in some way or another. Also those automatic error reporting options can double as spyware, because it's not illegal spyware if you don't call it spyware

But i dont see how knox is a spyware? It sends data to samsung or so? theres multiple methods to disable knox app running in background. so its whatever if knox is 0x99 or 0x0. Btw i use always airplane mode and dont use facebook or other "social media" with my REAL mail which have XDA etc accounts. PS im anti-social IRL. Thx for long answer

Hello, I have a HTC One m8 bought on AT&T, now under Cricket Wireless. I have had this issue with both carriers! I have edited the APN settings for Cricket - no luck and when on AT&T no luck sending MMS with Hoverchat app (free). Does anyone know how I can get mms to work with hoverchat?

If there is no fix is there another bubble chat head texting app like hoverchat?

Also, I am on Android 5.0.2 (it updated Friday) previously I was on 4.4.2 I think.

Can you send MMS with the stock messaging app?
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] jomak123:
Yes, pretty much any app, but Hoverchat. I am using YAATA now. I wish Hoverchat would work I like that better.
[AT&T HTC One (M8)] razieltov:
Then it's probably not the APN settings. It has to be something with the app itself

Hello i have a Moto X 2 gen 2014. I would like to relock my bootloader. How do i do that. ??
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
Why do you want to do that? The device will show locked status code 2 not locked status code 0 and it won't restore your warranty if you voided it by unlocking it.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] signesvej4:
Cant i go 100% back to stock?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
You can get back to stock software. But relocking back to status 0 is not possible as was mentioned. Relocking the bootloader has no purpose anyway, so I would just forget about it if I were you.

[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
With an unencrypted device, you could justify it for security reasons. The command is fastboot oem lock. You should've been able to find that without asking.

But otherwise, yeah it's pointless to relock.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] compuguy1088:
The pure edition keeps its warranty, though?
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
yes.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
On the website, it shows mine as voided.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
You have to get that straightened out with Motorola. Call and ask to be transferred to the US call center, but this has to be done M-F during business hours.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RootTheMachine:
Pretty sure it warned me that it would happen while unlocking... I could be wrong.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JulesJam:
That is a generic warning. The warranty for the pure edition is not voided by unlocking the bootloader. But you have to get it straightened out by speaking to someone in the US, not the foreigners.
[X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
Even though the message is there, Motorola still honors the warranty on the pure editions.

I am having the same issue on all the lp roms,

i am on boost and when i flash any rom i sometimes get service with the built in apn's if i don't have service i flash the Universal Boost APN fix which works

but when i switch between WiFi on and off it just won't find the default apn setting. i have to mobile networks every time to manually turn it back on. is there any fix for this

also there are issues with the Bluetooth sharing with my car as i have tried multiple roms and only after i allow my car to sync with my 2013 ford the Bluetooth crashes and can't share the phone book and messages but if i deny the request the Bluetooth works just for phone calls.

has anyone come across this issue and or a fix?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1337haXXor:
I know this post is old, but I'm in the same exact boat. And it's one of only 3 posts that comes up in the S5 forum when you search "boost apn." Bluetooth works, but is extremely spotty. I get MMS ONLY from other people on the Sprint/Boost network, but none otherwise. I've tried 2 different APN settings, including the one that MrBrinkz (?) posted a few months ago. To get mobile network, I have to restart the phone a couple times/turn Airplane mode on and off dozens of times.

Hi All, can I start by saying I am not overly techie but would appreciate any help you can give.

I have a HTC M9 on Vodafone, I have not changed anything technically from out of the box.

My problem is that when I am on 4G I can not send or receive texts, if I change settings to 3G then it all works. This is the same if wi-fi is on or off. I only have two bars on 4G but this is not a problem for my wife's I phone also with Vodafone. Any suggestions / thoughts on why this would be the case?

I should mention I have changed the SIM card and wiped and re started the phone (on advice from Vodafone). Thanks Ian G

[One (M9) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dynomutt007:
Is it limited to a certain area, not seen this issue and I am also on Vodafone, A manual roam may help, go to Settings>Mobile Data> Network Operators>search networks, then choose any other network except Voda and when it fails to connect select Voda and then retest, this should update your location on the HLR and may resolve your issue.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] levilib:
Is there any way to reduce the size of the battery percentage in the top status bar? I prefer it very small, definitely not bigger than the time! is there any way to fix this without rooting?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] zathus:
Without root, absolutely not. With root. It's doable. The smali it would have to be modified
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] fletch33:
if you dont mind waiting until its at 50% or less to see it then you can install Battery Percentage and get the percentage inside your battery icon and works with or without root

plus we have root now too right HERE and works great with no Knox trip

That battery percentage app says on lollipop it changes the color as the battery goes down, but also says on touchwiz it might not work, any solution in sight?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] Çingiz Salmanov:
How can i do it with root then?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6] zathus:
Mind you, I haven't modified smali's in a long time but first, the system would need to be dexoed. Then you would have to extract framework APK, decompile it. Located the small that controls what you looking for. Using something like note++ modify it, possible modify the xml. In the res location as well. Recompile. It's not a small task and unless your familiar with one ui and the locations of all the code it will be very difficult.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LMLML:
hi there folks, new here

was in the process of selling or donating my stock HTC M7, and I got some advice to first encrypt, then factory reset to protect my data.

that sounded good--so I pressed the encrypt button :) then after 6 or 8 hours of hot phone stuck on the verizon boot screen, I bailed and reset (pwr button+vol button).

so, phone is fine, everything was backed up, but my question now is, how do I go about protecting that data that's still there, probably *not* encrypted, nor very hard to find?

thanks for your help

[HTC One Mini 2] niac93:
Hey guys,

So this is a bit of a repost, but I wanted to ask again since sunshine now supports the HTC One Remix and bootloader unlock is possible.

I'm pretty sure this phone isn't going to get lollipop so I wanted something new to spice it up. I unlocked the bootloader and rooted using sunshine and downloaded xposed, but I wanted more of a different feel out of my phone. I would really like to install a custom ROM on it, but seeing as it isn't a popular phone it is hard to find anything that I can confirm as legitimate. I've been told not to use HTC One Mini 2 ROMs because, even though the phones are pretty much the same, there are little differences that could mess things up. Is this true? Has anyone out there tried using them?

Does anyone know of any reliable custom ROMs for the HTC One Remix? Or am I out of luck?

Any help at all would be much appreciated!
[HTC One Mini 2] Txjacob:
Doesn't look like there are really any. However, I'm playing with the idea of porting it over to the the Remix myself (as I grow more and more annoyed with stock...). I've been pretty busy with college until recently, so I might see if I can get something booting pretty soon.
[HTC One Mini 2] niac93:
That's awesome! I'm just getting into this sort of thing so I didn't really trust myself to port anything without bricking my only phone,but I couldn't really find anything legitimate out there. I really wanted to try cyanogenmod or lollipop but would even be happy if I could just flash stock Kitkat because a ton of xposed modules don't even work with sense roms

Let me know if you need anything a total noob like me can provide!

[XDA Assist] Renth:
Hi everybody,

currently I am using Android 4 (OMNI) on my Wave S8500 next to Bada (still using Bada sometimes since I ve got the livelong version of Route66).

I appriaciate the possibility to have both OS installed and ready for usage in parallal but I appreciate even more the usage of Android OS from SD card instead of internal memory since it is way faster!

Unfortunately the accu capacity when running on Android is only 1 to 2 days while compared with Bada 2.0 and similar usage pattern it lasts one entire week! (What a pitty that samsung did not take any benefit from having such a promising OS together with such a volume of devices sold mobiles, TVs, tablets whatever.)

In addition I've random freezes quite unreproducable which makes using Android quite unreliable. But all in all I am quite satisfied and really deeply grateful that Android for my wave even exists! I need to use it above all for calendar synchronisation (and also whatsapp meanwhile).

No I came across the possibilities of having version 5 of android to be used on S8500. But I could not find any suitable answers which version to go?

The one described here in (dev-thread) seems to be still in some early stages. Something similar seems to be the case for this version while non-working parts are partly mentioned.

I also found this description but without any additional information!

Does anybody have any hint or idead or suggestion for which version to go or whether number 5 is still not mature enough to be used as daily standard?

What are your experiences or suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

[P3600 Software Upgrading] GazChap:
Just got my Trinity today, and have successfully unlocked it using pof's unlocker. I unlocked the SIM lock and the CID lock, so it's now SuperCID.

I want to put WM6 on it, the LVSW version. I've downloaded the three files in the sticky post. Before I do it, I want to check that I'm understanding it right, because I'm a bit confused with version numbers.

So...

1) First, I need to HardSPL by running the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" file from the Hard-SPL.zip file, yeah? I ran this (but didn't flash it) and was confused because the new "Image Version" was 1.20 whereas the Image Version shown in the "current image" bit was 1.24.xxx. Usually, going backwards is bad but I may be misunderstanding.

2) I then need to flash the Radio ROM to 1.41 - why do I need to do this? I guess I run the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" from the GSM_xxx_xx file, right?

3) Finally, I need to flash WM6 - by running the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" file from the WM6 zip.

Is that right?
[P3600 Software Upgrading] GazChap:
Just tried to flash both the HardSPL and the Radio ROM, and the ROM Update Utility always craps out after I select "Yes" to the security prompt on the Trinity.

"ERROR 246 DEVICE NOT RESPONDING" is displayed in the update utility. Any ideas?

Also, if I go to the bootloader manually (holding down the buttons) the version numbers are:

TRIN100

IPL-0.50

TRIN100

SPL-1.07.0000

But when I let the ROM Update program enter the bootloader, these are shown instead:

TRIN100

IPL-SSPL by Des

TRIN100

SPL-1.07.ds

What does it all mean? Very confusing! It won't let it update anyway, when I select "Yes" to the security prompt, the screen goes black, the ROM updater throws up the error 246 and then the Trinity shows the bootloader.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] Stingray66:
SPL by Des is a one time only SPL called SSPL-TRIN.exe, it's somewhere on this board. Sometimes it's baked into a ROM too ... it fakes the SPL.

HARD SPL stays on your phone .... doesn't need SPL by Des anymore.

Windows needs some time to switch from Windows CE to the bootlader driver. This can cause an error ...... just start the exe file again on the PC.

Another common flash error is with Vista, then you need to overwrite the default driver when you're in the bootloader. The driver is in "VistaRUU.zip"

Relaunch the Hard-SPL, then the radio ROM and after that LVSW or mUn's ROM.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] akirainblack:
There is a file you extract called EnterBootLoader.exe

I copy this to the Memory card.

Then before I run the update I run this on the memory card.

The phone goes to the boot loader and then once windows has re-detected it I run the update.

This seems to have eliminated all problems I've ever had flash updating.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] GazChap:
I just tried this, but Windows doesn't seem to want to detect the presence of the device when I do. ActiveSync reports that nothing's connected.

:(
[P3600 Software Upgrading] GazChap:
Well I've got the Hard-SPL and Radio ROM to flash - instead of leaving ActiveSync connected I just went into the bootloader manually and did it that way.

But now I'm trying to flash WM6 and it gets up to 8% and then craps out with Error 286 - communication errors.

The device now won't boot past the bootloader :(

What do I do now? :P
[P3600 Software Upgrading] GazChap:
Bloody hell. It's amazing, it really is.

I had it plugged into my USB hub.

Took it out and plugged it directly into the PC, just on the off-chance that the hub was screwed up.

It's all working fine now, I think!

Typical. Thanks for the assistance anyway guys.
[P3600 Software Upgrading] akirainblack:
Nps. Glad you got it sorted :D

Is the USB Hub powered? If not that will cause a ton of problems!
[P3600 Software Upgrading] GazChap:
It's supposed to be powered, but I'm starting to think that the power supply might be faulty!
[P3600 Software Upgrading] kransky.dan:
hi guys,

2 questions if i can;

1)What is HardSPL?

2) Why are there 3 steps to getting WM6? why can I not use the "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" file from the WM6 zip straight away?

Thanks a lot!!
[P3600 Software Upgrading] danbrami:
Same Problem as GazChap

Hey All,

I was having the exact same problem as GazChap with the same configuration to start out with.

This is what I did:

1)plug in my p3600 to the USB

2)let synchronize, and hopefully finish, otherwise stop it

3)run HARD-SPL; this usually freezes after the first go and stalls in the bootloader

4)run HARD-SPL again; this time it will finish. You will have to turn on your machine again after this.

5)run AX3L ROM 2.0.8.2; this ALSO usually freezes after the first go and stalls in the bootloader

6)run the ROM again; This time its gonna work...

Now it works..
[P3600 Software Upgrading] rob51:
brick time

I loaded the hard spl succesfully. I could not get the radio upgrade to load no matter what I did. My instructions said it was optional, so I went directly to the WM6 rom exe load and it has a perpetual communications error after about 8% even though the WM6 loader says each time that recovery is successful. I have a tricolor screen (bootloader?) on my 3600 which won't respond to anything I have thought of yet. Anything I can do other than pitch it? Help! And thanks in advance.
