Thanks for your advice and explanations.

From a secuirty point of view, it is better to have Supersu on all the time, but it has to be properly configured...

Could you please publish an example of a proper configuration for SuperSU ?
[Security Discussion] optimumpro:
Enable pro; enable su; reauthentication; default access - prompt; enable pin code; don't enable su during boot; enable mount namespace separation; enable tapjacking; don't trust system user. In developer section grant root to apps only.

Unless you use MM, don't upgrade Superuser above 2.65...
[Security Discussion] iwanttoknow:
I don't know what is "enable tapjacking".

Could you explain please ?

[Security Discussion] iwanttoknow:

Sorry, but I don't understand why it's better to have always SU activated.

From my point of view, if SU is only activated when I need it, it's not a hole of security.

What do you think about that ?

Amusons-nous avant tout ! ;)
[Security Discussion] optimumpro:
In your phone Settings...

As I have already said, there are third party apps that can protect you and they require root. I will give you 2 examples: Afwall and Adaway. If you don't have afwall, your phone is exposed to the internet. Adaway takes care of ads/tracking/malware domains system wide. Both apps require permanent root.
[Security Discussion] iwanttoknow:
[MENTION=5075064]optimumpro[/MENTION]

So, the logical conclusion if I have not installed third party apps requiring permanent root, is that in this case it's useless to let SU permanently activated.

But my initial question was about the fact to be warned or not if apps can gain root rights. So thanks to your first answer to my post, I conclude that if SU is permanently activated, I would be permanently warned after booting.

Am I right ?

Amusons-nous avant tout ! ;)

You can also flash the no boot no recovery firmware.

Do you mind explaining what that is for, or give me a link about it?
[HTC 10 Questions & Answers] andybones:
Look up what firmware is, it should be easy to find answer. ;)

RUU is firmware + ROM.

If you are on custom ROM, this saves a step. Also when new OTA hits you can flash firmware and stay on your ROM of choice.

Problem description: In the "Contacts" application, a big part of my contacts have been deleted (invisible) by the phone itself.

Hi guys, now it's time for me to ask a question. In all my years with android I haven't felt so powerless :p

I'm experiencing a strange behavior with my N5X: I regularly get an error "cellular network not available" when trying to call someone. During that time I'm not able to make calls, receive calls and receive or send sms messages. The strange thing: LTE, H+, H, E or G connections are working during that time.

A reboot fixes the issue for some time, but after some time (minutes or hours) the issue is back. As I said, my whatsapp service and internet connection is available via LTE or similar (depends on the quality of connection), but all GSM services won't work.

I haven't changed the SIM card.

I flashed several different ROMs an kernels.

Thanks

http://imgur.com/a/K0qX2 - here you can see the issue (working H connection but no service)

Update: I removed the SIM card and cleaned it with alcohol, put it back in again and it's working for now.

The issue is back... During a bluetooth connected call in my car, the connection was lost and couldn't be reconnected. "cellular network not available" was shown every time I tried to make a call after that. Internet connection over LTE was fine at the same time...

That's a strange issue. It seems after signal lost it only reconnects data but not cellular.

[MENTION=1065811]Frozen-GPU[/MENTION] are you on the newest July update of android? Maybe it is a issue with the radio.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Frozen-GPU:
Yes, very strange... I'm on the latest July update with XtraFactory at the moment. However the issue isn't ROM related I think, because I had it with several ROMs and builds since may, if I remember it correctly.

I found some settings in the test-menu *#*#4636#*#* to change for "GSM only" network-mode for example. Maybe that'll fix it.
[Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crian:
I switched from LTE/4G to 3G Network in the cellular settings. And the issue doesn't appear till now.

I really think that something in the July update borged it. Before I never had this problem.

Thanks to bitdomo! In the end before I applied the fix, I couldn't get any GSM services anymore. LTE was working. My Nexus 5X was stuck in "USA Band", therefore I wasn't able to fix it without the bitdomo ROM. The bitdomo ROM provides a huge selection of bands, where my stock ROM only showed "USA Band".

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] littld:
Ok I'm new here, just switched from my old (now dead) Charmer to a Prophet and came here looking for a WM6 rom.

So far, I have tried the following and wanted to weigh up the pros and cons of each:

1. gullum's Touch IX

Fast, lots of memory but a bit overloaded, album didn't work and BT activesync didn't work as normal

2. TNT

This was okay but seemed to "stutter" a bit so performance not so good.

3. Crystal 4

This is fast, looks nice but misses some of the things I'm used to (so I have to go looking for cabs). It also doesn't lock the buttons even when you set it to - so if I use it as a music player any of the buttons can get pressed when the screen is off. I wish I could find a workaround for that one.

4. About to try gullm's Touch VIII

I guess I am looking for a fairly light WM6 which is fast. I don't like the new HTC keyboard at all but the phonepad was good. I like the cube but its not important. It is important that everything works as it should - e.g. bluetooth.

Any advice based on experience?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] mr_yellow:
you forgot to try Cloudyfa's ROMs. mysterious and transformer.

After you've tried those, you can make your decision cause there's nothing else except cooking your own rom! =)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] Da9L:
i would try the Transformer or Crystal roms as mr_yellow states.. They are pretty stable and phonepad with many langauges.. And they have network wizard so you don't need to remember your GPRS and MMS settings if you have to hard reset on your way :)

And with transformer, you can choose the look you want :)
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] kamalneet:
if you want cube, touch, speed,camera album go for gullum IX(his X would be too good),infact go for it if you want everything install after you flash it ,else go for others and then find the cabs to install later.
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] littld:
I did try that one. The album didn't work properly (didn't recognize gestures) and bluetooth activesync doesn't work. Hopefully the bugs will be ironed out with a X release. In the meantime, I'm testing Touch VIII to see how it compares.

Thanks for your advice, it's difficult to choose when there are so many pros and cons with each rom!
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] tropheuz:
Have you tried Claudyfa Rom's?

[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] PES13:
Hello,

On each prophet's Roms I've tested, Bluetooth's parameters are loosed after soft reset (headset must be paired again and again ...).

Is it a WM6's problem or only with these roms ?
[JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 ROM Development] littld:
Yes, I see that. I think the bluetooth cab then stops usb working or something. Sounds a bit flaky. I've had a go with Touch VIII and it is suiting me pretty well so far.

Not tried the Mysterious one yet, tropheuz, but I'm sure I will.

What I have found so far from the roms I have used is they all have pros and cons - I don't mean different cabs installed but some just have BT working well, or everything's fine except wifi, or whatever. It would be good if the people cooking roms could come up with a standard agreed base where everything works and then add their favourite apps and themes on top of it. Just an idea.

Thanks again.

After a change in direction after looking at the complexity of putting out a new hardware device with it's own type of OS, Silk Labs has opened up their platform for developers to have a go.

The concept is simple, a OS for IOT which could run on many platforms.

If you have not yet had a look at it: Silk Labs - Silk

There are also a few videos showing some of the potential of the Silk system on youtube. Silk Labs Youtube channel

My purpose in posting about this here on XDA Developers is in the hopes of bringing this technology into a brighter light. There is so much potential with it.

I see it as a chance to make something that has the potential to be maybe even like the automated voice controlled homes in so many films. Not to mention it is android based, which is a perfect fit for the family here at XDA.

All the best,

Dave Stanton

(Not a Silk Labs employee, this is just my personal opinion on the system and its potential...)
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheLexx:
Looking through the cyanogenmod and xda-developers forums it appears that Motorola makes more than one model called the Moto E. I would like to know how to distinguish them. I found a cheep Moto E phone to put an aftermarket OS on I have used cyanogenmod in the past and would like to use it again, but I would be willing to use a different aftermarket OS if cyanogenmod will not work on it.

Money is tight for me now, but I found a cheep phone that a can use as something to F-mess around (you know, listen to podcast, voice recorder, record/view pics/video, run Android apps, etc.) with. I will not be using it with a carrier, I will just use it with WiFi. I would like to know which phone I have before purchasing. Each box has written on it SKU: MOT1526BBB and the phone"s phone's IMEI number, I am hoping that is useful information.

If I can not root the phone, I will return it. The store has pretty liberal return policy, but I must return it within 14 days.
[Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ALPHAWolf96:
You're having a moto e 4g (second gen ) device codenamed as "surnia". Just unlock its bootloader by searching stuff on internet and flash a custom recovery and then you can root it or can install any custom os on it. There's an official CyanogenMod support for this device too.

Hope it helps you.

Good day everyone, I got a Net 10's LG L16C phone today, at first it was all good since I needed a new phone, but then I discovered this particular phone doesn't have a sim slot, which is bad since I don't like in the states so I can't use their pre-paid services, so I decided to use it for the apps and the like, I have an old galaxy 2 I777 which is still good but using the wifi and apps drain the battery fast, so it's just for calls.

Long story short, I want to install a custom ROM to the LG phone but I haven't had any luck finding any, does anyone know where I can get a ROM for this particular phone? or some way to upgrade at least to android 4.4.4?

I don't think you'll find any. I had this phone gave to me so our team could dump the system and add it to our root/frp collection. FRP wouldnt apply to this but the one click root would. Also thought about a simple custom rom. Problem with these LG tracfone variants is you cant get into download mode. At least thats what our team has found out so far messing around with a Rebel now this Lucky. Might be a way but so far weve not totally looked into it. If you do find anything out there please share it with everyone. Im sure a lot of people with this $10 phone would be happy to have the advantages those of us with more higher end units have. I have to sell this phone after IF we get a dump. Wish me luck.

[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jwp1299:
Alright ignore what I said before this edit, I just skipped a step.

I must say though, steps 41-43 are very confusing. What is the ROM folder?
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JacekRing:
The ROM folder I'm referring too is the folder inside the Jasmine zip file. I only reference it so people wouldn't try to take just the files inside the folder which is inside the zip file. Lol yea that's confusing....I'll think about how to rewrite those and make adjustments in a couple hours to make it clearer.

But basically when you extract the Jasmine zip file it creates a folder with files in it. Copy the whole folder not just the files to where it makes your recovery folders.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jwp1299:
Okay, awesome. Also I think the TWRP part could be explained a little clearer.

Other than that, 100% :)

oh also, at the start I would say to read the entire thing before starting, and give a warning that downloads will take like 4 hrs
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JacekRing:
Lol yea, didn't think to mention reading the whole thing first. To me that's a given I always read everything before starting. I'll add a note to read everything.

As to download time, well it is like what 12 gigs in total? Basically 4 full versions of the Android OS at 2 gigs reach plus all the extras.

I'll try to see if I can't explain the twrp recovery of Jasmine better. Only reason you need to do Jasmine is for the 6.0.1 device drivers (such as modem).
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] JacekRing:
I've modified the guide appropriately, to resolve all of the issues (I think) you mentioned. And to make some steps easier to understand and follow.

I also added a recommended app on the bottom, and mentioned a site you can use to get PlayStore apps which will now list as incompatible with our phones.

Finally, question: Did you succeed using this Guide? Just curious if everything is working as expected after following my guide. I wrote the thing from memory, after spending 3 days rooting my phone and figuring everything out from various sources. Hopefully this saves people some time where they don't have to piece a dozen sources together to figure out how to do it. I only mentioned the main 4 I referenced, but there were other lessons learned from various places that aren't covered in those posts.
[Verizon Galaxy Note 4 General] jwp1299:
I was quite successful with the root. Even though I messed up a few times (skipping steps), it all works out and now it's working lovely. It only took an hour of actual work, plus a lot of download time because of slow hosts.

Thanks so much for the guide, the only issue was with the slow hosts, and that's hardly your fault. I do wonder if maybe setting up a torrent of the heavier files might help though.

Edit: I will say, this is a wonderfully tedious root effort.
