[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] errfoil:
So I just lost my phone. While I shop and research for a replacement I was thinking of using my old Nexus One. Software is version 2.3.6.

Is this is really stupid idea from a security point of view, or is the software so old that the bad guys have long ago moved on?
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
I wouldn't be too concerned, I still slap a sim in older phones then this from time to time for fun - the vast majority of security issues will need you to let someone in, ie install a bad app or download something malicious

In truth it is not a simple thing to find a way into an one individuals phone without their consent

Are there possibilities? Sure, but so unlikely
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] errfoil:
Thanks demkantor. I figured it is easier to just play with an old phone for a week or so vs. doing all the work of loading up a temporary phone.

Cheers...
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] force73:
I also do not think about "bad idea". It's always the user in front and not the tool or software that make something "insecure".

It's fun because I bought a Nexus One again, yesterday, to give it a try again after the years. It was and is a wonderful piece of hardware. :)

Greetings,

Hello. Just got a G4 off of Craigslist. Unlocked model US991. I see MM rolled out months ago yet I'm on 5.1.1 and when checking for update on settings it shows this as current. Any way to get it to push the update to me without a computer? Also what about root? I was using the AT&T variant a few months ago and managed to root it without a computer so I definitely know it's possible. Any help and or suggestions?

But there's another rom which is really super excellent too

and it can be found right here in xda:

I am gonna take advantage of this post to ask you, where I can find a tutorial to root my S7 edge? Saw many ways to do it, even read about an "auto root". I think I can even root my phone with one of those methods but I haven't read a xda tutorial yet. Is there any around here?

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Misterjunky:
re: rooting

Okidodi here is a complete guide to rooting your S7 Edge:

FULL STEPS FOR OBTAINING ROOT

In your ROM, go to Settings -> About device. Tap 7 times on Build number to enable Developer options.

Now go to Settings -> Developer options. (above About device)

You need to enable OEM unlock, otherwise you might end up with boot problems or be unable to flash later on.

Extract Odin_3.10.7.zip to your computer.

Install Samsung Mobile Phone Drivers for Odin to find your device in windows.

Download a .tar image of TWRP for hero2lte.

Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, select reboot from the power menu and hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons while your device reboots.

Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.

Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot without touching any other options, then press [Start].

Hold [Volume Up] + [Home] buttons near the end of the flash, and keep holding them until you are in recovery.

At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.

By swiping right, you will trigger dm-verity, and if you don't follow step 11 you will be unable to boot!

If you are going to root your device and follow the rest of these steps, then it is safe to swipe right and enable modifications.

Only if you want internal storage or data to work in TWRP:

Go to [Wipe] -> [Format Data] (not advanced wipe) -> type "yes".

WARNING: This will wipe your internal storage, disable encryption, and factory reset your phone!

Go to [Reboot] -> [Recovery].

If you want to be rooted with SuperSU:

Download the latest SuperSU by Chainfire.

Without exiting TWRP, transfer the SuperSU zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.

Alternatively, if you only want a bootable system partition or writable data in TWRP:

Download dm-verity and force encryption disabler.

Without exiting TWRP, transfer no-verity-opt-encrypt.zip to your device over MTP* and flash it using [Install] in TWRP.

Go to [Reboot] -> [System].

Wait 5-15 minutes for your device to finish setting itself up.

Okay, if you need further assistance or download links you can go here:

Good to know - the only mods I've done to my Galaxy since I bought it were based on your posts, lol.

Even though you have access to the Echoe forums you still think the Superman ROM is better with the AEL Kernel over the EHOE ROM and AEL kernel?

Googling and following links for the AEL kernel sends me to the Echoe forums where I am blocked... so I wont be able to try this. Is the superman ROM ok without it, or should I try a different one first?

A little something...

I took the liberty of creating two cabs with the files supplied by diezoo. I also mapped the Right Soft Key to open randomaccess.exe. 10-31-07, applied adejager1's and starbase's correct reg entries.

I take no credit for these cabs, just enjoy making cabs is all.

Soft Reset

I installed the files manually with sucess. Unfortunately after a soft reset Randomaccess.exe takes me to the normal Contacts list. Installing the newly supplied cab files did not fix the issue.

Is anyone else experiencing problems?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam ROM Development] Dr Puttingham:
If you install one of my cabs you need to wait for the changes to get written to the registry. I simply power off which forces the write.

Nice little addition, and thanks to Dr Puttingham for the convenient cabs.

Interestingly, the app only works in portrait mode -- when you switch to landcape it reverts back to the standard Contacts app appearance and functionality. Makes sense though, since the side of the landscape screen isn't big enough to hold the whole alphabet (I don't see any reason why it couldn't scroll the alphabet selector once your finger got to the bottom of the screen though).

i am have a hard time to figure this out come someone help me get this working better. it is the action screen below.

also found a new app we might like to use...enjoy....this was made bu JUVS and not me. it is the network plugin cab below.

the third file is the elf skin for calculator....i didn't make this one...so i don't know is this was made by some one or it is the actual calculator skin used on elf. either way it looks nice to me and i do use it.

the last file (haven't tried yet) is an updated htc dual touch album i found.

one last thing about htc album...if you link directly to the .exe from the launcher instead of the .lnk (registry tweak), the album launches in portrait mode. see this picture....http://www.earthgenie.com/ppc/htc_album.jpg

Good luck removing Random Access!

Installed Random Access from the Puttingham CAB. The applet didn't impress me so I tried to remove it from my 8525 running VP3G's latest 3.62 ROM. No luck!

I tried killing the process and removing. No luck there, either. (On top of that, Random Access was still showing up in contacts, even with randomaccess.exe killed! It's like a weed!)

Any advice on how I can get rid of this app? Please don't suggest a hard reset :(

Delete \Windows\RandomAccess.exe, RS_Bar.png, RS_HL.png and RS_Ind.png. Then you need to modify the registry at [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Today\Keys\113] and change RandomAccess.exe to \Windows\AppButtons\contacts.lnk.

Help with launching RandomAccess from dial pad

I've made a shortcut to random access (randomaccess.lnk) and placed it in my windows folder, and made the registry changes you noted:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Rai\:M SCONTACTS]

"1"=":MSPOUTLOOK RandomAccess"

"0"="RandomAccess"

And soft reset, and when I press the soft key for Contact from the dialpad screen, it appears to push the phone screen to the back (where I can see Start on the top left corner instead of phone), but nothing comes up as far as the default contacts or randomaccess app.

Myself, I've grown dependent on the onehanded operation that Smartskey gives me so as long as I open my Contacts from the Today screen first, then RandomAccess works from the Phone app.
