"According to Duo Security, 57% of all Android devices, from the company's internal data set, are vulnerable to this attack, the rest having Google's May Android security update installed, which patched CVE-2016-2431, or just don't use a Qualcomm chip."

so if you have the latest OOS which has the June 1st patch, your safe. For now. hackers are always one step ahead, but the chances of your or my device being hacked are slim to none. Look at stagefright, not one single incident.

Nice that they put the script on GitHub tho... And "Apple-grade encryption" means absolutely squat. How do you think iCloud images leak onto the internet?
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] gruntyoldbag:
Read the admentment to my post above.

Also iCloud images leaked because of weak passwords / guessing security questions on the web.

Certainly not because of a weak OS/Chipset.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] k.s.deviate:
I believe that all systems are vulnerable to attackers at some level, even the ones considered the "most" secure (paypal, banks etc.) can and have been hacked.

Apple devices are no more or no less secure than android, (5.0+) both systems have their weaknesses and can be brute force attacked. A lot of security experts are suggesting the Nexus devices to be used if security is a concern as they at least get monthly updates. Nice thing about that is AOSP gets updated around the same time, so custom roms that are kept up to date with the latest merges reap the same benefits as a Nexus device.

FYI: I'm not trying to sound preachy/rude/short or anything, I had a heated argument this morning with my companies IT department as they still want us to use iPhone 5S/BBZ10's instead of new Nexus/Samsung devices.. (our plan is up for renewal)
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] _Man0waR_:
Well if I understand correctly it requires bruteforcing the password/pin.... I suggest to encrypt but also use a strong password. There's no 100% safe security anyway. It depends of your 'adversary' too. For most users it's not the NSA. So even if the protection is not perfect a strong password should be good enough. You can use the fingerprint reader too (and switch off the phone in some situations, like crossing borders...).
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] MeeGz:
It's a bit concerning that some responding to this OP are basically making light of the very, very serious vulnerabilities mentioned in the above links. Obviously Apple, at least as of the writing of the above articles, seems to have better system for FDE. Especially on their newer chipsets. I really hope that Qualcomm and Google figure out some sort of work around for this for our 820, but also the other QC SoCs that are currently supported.

No, my adversary is not the NSA or other intel agencies(hopefully). I would like a (highly?) reliable method of disk encryption that actually works and isn't compromised in detail on a blog post along with a whole bunch of scripts and code and the developer of hashcat posting in the comments section with goal of collaborating on way to further optimize the attack and integrate into the HC code base.

Call me paranoid but I'll never be any company's, corporation's, organization's or developer's fanboy... IMO I AM THE PAYING CUSTOMER. DELIVER OR **** OFF.

I love Android and OOS is a very true interpretation but as far as security goes this NEEDS to be fixed ASAP in one way or another. Too bad we can't get a copperOS ROM. Even if we had that for the OP3 it appears that the issues are largely the result of QC's implementation of the "TrustedZone".

[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] pendragon666:
It does not sound negligibile at all. Why didnt you test with large app starts and app installation. I, for instance, accidentally encrypted my op3t and i noticed by seeing that a game was being installed for an unusually long time.
[OnePlus 3 Guides, News, & Discussion] Evo_Shift:
Thanks. I'm not going to bother with trying to stay unencrypted from now on after seeing this. I always seem to mess the process up and end up encrypted, lol. Like my current ROM. I know the other day I looked and was not encrypted. Now I am. I have no idea what I did but I certainly didn't do it on purpose.

[UMi ZERO Questions & Answers] Hadziano:
Hello guys,

I have had so many problems with this flipping phone, 1 problem after another. I've installed the latest ROM 6.0.1 Resurrection remix marshmallow and I have root access as I have checked through RootChecker, but every time I try clicking on gallery { no external storage available) and camera the same.. also cannot access sd card even though I have internal storage..apparantly I need to give everything root access but I don't know how, I already have supersu and superuser.. Now I don't physically have an SD card but i had no issue like this before with previous ROM. File manager also says " this operation requires elevated permissions,Try changing to root access mode" I have already done this by clicking APPS and ADB... I don't know what else do I do.. I have installed this ROM using ROOTJOY if that helps, and every time I plug in usb, it shows Umi zero and then "this folder is empty" .. does this make sense? someone please help, thanks

Find attached the Extended ROM of 3 UK.

Dont think that it's incomplete due to the small size, u ll find out that it contains several cabs.

I m sure many will find it usefull.:cool: :cool:

BTW i m still waiting someone's reply on how to dump a rom. I already tried few things with the tools mentioned in wiki but i m not quite sure if i m doing this right. I will really apreciate a feedback on this. Pls feel free to PM me...

Many thanks mate. This is really appreciated. wish I could help with the rom dump but I am still learning myself. good luck with it.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PsiDOC:
Umm this is a slightly modded version that does NOT remove the wireless section from the today screen as the original does, and adds a few freeware apps that I use every day. The apps being:

Tcpmp

Total Commander

PS Shut XP

HTC Xbutton

PHM Regedit

and RAR Archive manager.

This is still in the same format as the above (the files only) and not in .nbf format as I simply don't know how to dump it / compile it. So it's for unlocked extended roms only.

For a guide to cooking your unlocked extended rom have a lookee here

I am using this rom on top of an original O2 Exec rom not the QTec rom used by 3UK and it installs fine. So it should work with any universal variant.

Happy 3'ing!

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PsiDOC:
The 3 rom is a standard Qtek rom with the 3 bits n bobs added in the extended rom. ;)

Basically you can use any WM5 (or 6 if you don't want videocall) of your choice and all the 3 stuff is in the extended roms above.

@Z£Y$ what version of Qtek rom is your 9000 using.

Is this the latest Qtek ROM version?

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Lakota:
Ah, I didn't realise this.

I had gone back to the basic Qtek rom quite some time ago to sort out issues with the web connection dropping out all the time.

I still have issues with being unable to get to My3 with the E61 block. I think this is something to do with certificates. I have no idea how to solve this.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Lakota:
I've asked 3 if they can provide it. Don't hold your breath though.

I contacted them today, they said they would get back to me.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PsiDOC:
Welcome mate. Re having the latest, I think you are, however have a lookee here (requires you to register.)

http://www.myqtek.com/europe/myqtek.aspx

@ Lakota,

The reason for the E61 block page is because you are using a web browser, not a WAP browser to view the pages on 3. I found this out eventually on my old nokia E61. Sadly the Uni doesn't have a Wap browser. Please refer to This post here for Z£Y$ method of getting around that. Personally I use Opera for a browser so i don't get the problem. You could alway just click the services icon and viola you get past the E61 block.

@ PsiDOC

Do you get all the services using opera? such as "today on 3" and access to all "services" such as mobile TV??? I was not able to do so with opera untill few minutes ago hence i decided to release a guide.

@Lakota

I had very lenghty discussions with 3UK and the outcome of the numerous callbacks is that Qtek 9000 is not compatible by 3UK to use planet3. So do not expect a solution by them. However there is a workarond as i m describing here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=341755
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] XTCrefugee:
Thanks very much for the extended rom and for your guides, Z£Y$. It might finally be time to ditch my Orange sim and get a 3 contract sim I think!

Quick question though, as I don't know too much about the services 3 provides - are ALL the various services that are available on 3 working on the Universal with your guides/workarounds or are there still things that don't work 100%?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PsiDOC:
With regard to services I only really browse the 3 uk site to check what I owe and get the news etc so yes today on 3 does work. I haven't used the Mobile TV so cant comment on that. Opera is fine for doing that. I usually go in on mobile.three.co.uk and it automatically redirects me without the E61 block page.

With regards your fix for the streaming media most of the files for getting it to work should already be in WM5. If you like I can add the rest into the Extended Rom and have that do the registry change as well, so when you first setup and the customisation is performed it's all done for you. No fuss no hassle then. ;)

If you want it, give me a day or 2 as it's a bit manic here today.

Psi
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Z£Y$:
@PsiDOC

Yes m8 if we can add the procedure i.e registry fixes and files to the Ext ROM will be excellent. I m gonna give this a go myself as well if i have some time... BTW HTC streaming media is not included in my wm5.

All of the services from 3 are working now!!!

Ok peeps, I would have had the streaming tv ext rom sorted by now, however I am having problrms putting the coredll.dll file into a .cab file for the extended rom. It's sending my PC into a 100% CPU loop. Everything else packs up ok, it's just this little monster that's giving me a headache.

Bear with me on this I will sort it.

Psi
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] Z£Y$:
m8 one thing to consider is that these dll files for the streaming media need only to be ADDED if missing. In my case i added only few of them and ignored the rest without to overwrite the existing ones. So if you ll make a cab file it will install all of them rather than installing only the missing ones .....correct me if i m wrong.

Ideally during instalation u should be promted about the existing dll files.

Regards

Z£Y$
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] PsiDOC:
I appreciate that mate. However what we have to consider is the varying configurations for user installations. I can set a .cab file for "if exists = skip install" on files which will bypass on install if the file is alrady present.

It's just that I cannot get this bloody file into a .cab file....

It's annoying me now. Been trying all night. GRRRRRR!
