*** ALTERNATIVE EXPLANATION ***

I just wanted to clarify this in a different way to help those who had inquired to me regarding an alternate way for explaining the following (best way i can via text).

An Android ROM has 2 primary boot sequences. The first sequence is what's written in the boot scripts and the second is the applications that are set to automatically run after the boot scripts are completed.

The SELinuxToggler is a part of the second boot sequence because it's designed not make changes to the devices boot scripts.

When the SELinuxToggler launches upon the second sequence, and changes the SELinux State, it is reflected by the notification on the status bar.

Furthermore, that notification (on the status bar) doesn't reflect the actual SELinux State but, an indicator that the SELinux Mode commands were sent to the device and should be reflected as such.

The SELinuxToggler doesn't query (aka detect) a devices system for its SELinux State. It just provides you a notification that reflects the command that had been sent to the device and what the actual SELinux State should reflect.

I hope i had explained this (in a different way) okay.

Please let me know if anyone has any questions or concerns.

Thank You All!

I'm trying to get V4A running on a N7 2013 WiFi-only (root, MM 6.0.1). SELinuxToggle can be installed if I ignore all the "Don't install this evil thing" messages. And it, in fact, toggles from Enforced to Permissive. Once. Then the forces of self-righteous rectitude uninstall the app, not just winge about it. V4A installs from an apk, editing build.prop works, changing audio_effects.conf works, but clearly SELinuxToggler is anathema to something. What? And how do I smite it down? Or stealth past it?

***** HEAR YE! HEAR YE! *****

I just wanted to fill everyone in on 3 items...

1) I've been actively working on the next release of the SELinuxToggler app. I haven't forgotten about the app or the thread. The timeframe for the next release has yet been determined.

2) I had provided a link to the BusyBox/SuperSU Binary Updaters Experimental Beta on the BusyBox thread. Just an FYI...

3) To answer the question, again, regarding the SELinuxToggler being an XPosed Module... I had previously contemplated that idea (though, not a horrible idea) and ultimately decided that it would not be in the best interest of the Followers, Users, etc... of this app (especially at this point of time).

This is because of 2 primary reasons:

A) There's no Framework for the Nougat, Oreo, etc.. and would not be fair to those users who rely on this app and, currently, cannot use XPosed.

B) This app is also for those (though a small handful of them) users who may need it in order to install the XPosed Framework in the first place.

If i ever do revisit this option again, then, more than likely, be a completely separate release of its own. As of now, I'm setting the XPosed Module option aside until further notice.

Well that's all for this check-in and please remember to let me know if you have any questions or concerns for me.

Thank You All for your Time, Support and Understanding!

-----DELETED-----
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
I'm thinking of changing the verbiage of the SELinuxToggler notification to something like:

"Device Commands Sent for SELinux Mode Change to..."

This is because some of the feedback from other users included the confusion over the current notification stating:

"SELinux Mode Changed to..."

When, in fact, the app doesn't detect the SELinux state and that is kinda misleading if the SELinux state wasn't actually changed.

I'm also thinking about modifying (though minor) the name from "SELinuxToggler" to "SELinux Toggler" by just adding a space between the two words.

Can you all please give me a little feedback about the two?

Maybe some suggestions on the verbiage?

I would really appreciate it.

Thanks a Bunch!

***** HEAR YE! HEAR YE! *****

I just wanted everyone within my Project DevDB Threads to be aware of the following:

Some of you may probably remember (though, i had edited a few posts of mine to prevent any misunderstandings) has been a bit of a challenge for me and as a result, I was really forced to make a temporary decision that will begin no later than tomorrow (aka effective NLT 03MAY2017).

I am not "being forced to" but, rather was "personally forced to make the decision to" drop out of the XDA Forum Spotlight and be much more of a scarce entity within the XDA Forum as a whole.

With that stated, this decision will in NO WAY include any of my projects like the SELinuxToggler app at all.

All my projects will continue to receive updates, upgrades, support, etc... and will not be ignored. When i decided to distribute and support my Developments, i made a promise to the users and followers and have, in no way, been included in this decision.

Though, i may not be around as much, I'll still be popping in to monitor, release and support as any ethical Developer should because that wouldn't be fair to any of you.

All i ask is that if there's anything posted and i haven't responded within a day or two (as i try my best to) and if you can help that member along, it would be great if you could help that member out.

If you, as a member, ask a question with no response, within a day or two, i have not and will not ignore you. I just may need a little more time than I typically take.

Thank you all for your time and understanding with this and, as I had stated, I'll Be Back!

I have a Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 running MIUI 8. Just wanted to know if there is a way out like a flashable unistaller zip if SELinux Toggler leads somehow to a bootloop? MIUI is so finnicky so wanted to cover all my bases beforehand. Thanks for the app by the way.
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
It uninstalls like any other app.

The flashable zip installs in the same manner as the apk file but, in an alternate way.

The app doesn't make permanent changes to the device and I've never heard of it causing a Bootloop (the app doesn't even load until after the device has booted up).

The only way that, i can imagine, this app having anything linked to a Bootloop is what the user had performed after the SELinux State was changed.

Are you stuck in a Bootloop now?

[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
This app doesn't disable anything.

If Viper requires SELinux to be set to Permissive for It to work, then the Viper will more than likely stop working (not positive to the exact reaction) if you set the SELinuxToggler back to Enforcing.

Many thanks!

I've followed the recommendations given in the link, and now, (considering that the message appears only intermittently), I'll just have to wait and see if it will work.
[Android Apps and Games] Ibuprophen:
When that Google feature is turned off (via the link from the post) it stops Google from choosing what to keep running and what not to run. I, personally, prefer more control in my device and don't want Google to stop an app i install from working with a recommendation to remove it.

With that stated, i only recommend that Google feature to be altered by more advanced users who knows what they're doing. There are those who really shouldn't touch this because they really don't know enough about what they install, where it comes from that should really do a little more research, learning, etc...

Please let me know if you need anything else further.

Thanks!

[Galaxy Tab S2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] learningear:
I have purchased a new Galaxy Tab S2 with the idea of using it to transfer photos from my DSLR when I travel. Tried it out and was disappointed to find out that there is an annoying snag. Here is the sequence of events

Moved my class 10 micro SD from my Sony Tablet to the S2

No problem, I can review all folders and content on the card.

Connected my Pentax K30 with a class 10 16gig SD card on board using the Pentax supplied USB cable and an adapter (non Pentax) to match the USB port on the S2, camera set to PTP

the S2 reports that the SD card is corrupt.

Removed the SD card from the camera and connected using an SD card reader

the S2 reports the card as Pentax USB, but displays two of them with identical names

When I open the file it displays the directory of the INTERNAL MICRO SD card and not the directory of the SD card in the card reader?

If I remove the internal micro SD card

the S2 connects correctly both through the camera direct connect and through the card reader correctly

If I replace the internal micro SD card with a class 4 card

the S2 connects correctly both through the camera direct connect and through the card reader correctly

There seems to be conflict running two class 10 cards at the same time on an S2, what gives?

Hi Community,

this is a support thread for DSA Rom`s :)

The reason for this here is, that all DSA threads on XDA are closed and I dont know where to share experiance and bugs for the DSA Roms.

First of all, a big thanks to DSA for sharing your Roms.

I am using the 4.4 Rom, and what should I say?

Fast, stable and clean....simple perfect :)

I've combined the DSA Rom with Malaysk parts to get screensafer working.

What experiance do you have with DSA Roms ?

Please share it with us :D

Best regards
[MTCB Software Development] dontpannic:
By far the best ROM's for these units in my opinion. I'm currently stripping down DSA's 4.4.4 ROM, removing all unnecessary APK's for my system and use case, completely removing Google Play, and it boots quickly and loads nav quickly as well.
[MTCB Software Development] Johny DJ:
I made [MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION] lollipop lite by unninstalling all unusefull apps and I got it usable on 1Gb ram, much better then kitkat, because the programs run better for me and everything works... (mtc-keys, mtc manager etc.)

Was planing to make the lite update.img file to install with changed logo and removed apps, but when I was building an image it gets bigger then dsa's one, don't know why... If I tried booroondoks one, it is smaller as it should be.

If anyone knows all the apps which can be removed or just the explanation of apps it will help to build an image.

Now I totally have more than 65 apps removed and the system is fully responsive with google maps and google play included (the only problem is that removing apps from folders on computer that there is not the same package names like the apps names itself.)
[MTCB Software Development] tariqkhan.co.uk:
Do you have a version to share? Would love to try it out :)

[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
He [MENTION=6041319]dsa8310[/MENTION]) split the file in half. when you run the 1st part, it will join part1 and part2 when it makes the update.img (Use 7zip or unrar
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
Thank´s a lot, Oldpapa49!

Did you, or did you ever have the DSA-ROM?

How is the subjective compared to a Malaysk-ROM?

Actually, Malaysk-ROM runs on my HU quite well, but I´am too curious as the ROM of dsa8310 is

Have a nice day!

Thomas
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
DSA8310 rom does very well (5.1.1) which currently I'm using now. He just makes it very basic. Boots fast and is not a FUSE type rom (FUSE uses all memory for APPs)

Malasky is a feature rom, he puts some apps in it to his liking. It is FUSE type to no limit to the amount of apps.

I like to have a speedometer on main display (mal's does this) so I install a launcher that I can put what I want on the main screen.

I have the speed I want with the weather on main.

And I like apps, so I will have to limit my apps.
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
One question, bevore i install it:

The ROM is named xupdateKLD....

I'm worried that the "KLD" is not compatible with my JY. The ROM is not just for Klyde Head Units and universally applicable?
[MTCB Software Development] coyote320:
The only constrain to install DSA Rom is to have an MTCB Head unit and not MTCD or Intel! (I have a JY MTCB and this ROM is doing great)
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
I've tried to unzip the part2 of dsa ROM. It shows two errors. Whats wrong?

Edit:

No matter what 2nd part of any DSA-ROM I try to unpack, there are always 2 errors

I'm scared to destroy something on my Head-Unit when I'm flashing this update.img!
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
I downloaded the December xupdate rar files.

I placed both files in a folder and ran 7Zip and selected the 1st file (204,800KB) and had it extract the files. 7Zip will extract both part1 and part2 at the same time.

The extracted file will be filename update.img size of 818.159KB.

If you try extracting the part2, you will get an error. The pointers are in part1.
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
Done.... Oldpapa49, you are my hero!

Then you have an MTCC?

I have a MTCB and here is the last ROM from 05.08.2016.

What actually means "prerootet"?

Is the ROM now rooted or not?
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Mine is a MTCB KLD6 800*480 that was 4.4.4....

I do on occasion, while driving or not, flash Mal ROM, DSA8310 ROM, Boonoorook ROM and factory. Was on DSA8310 until yesterday, now on latest 4.4.4 of Mal's. Who know what tomorrow will bring.

So far for flashing, I have done it all.

I have backups of the launcher that I like, (It historic where I can add my own stuff)

I want on my main page Speed, Weather and a few apps I like (Sirius is one).

I save my stuff via Titanium and recover apps that way.

I have like 20 USB Flash drives with all different update images.

I'm crazy.. Love it..
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
Hahah....., yes, you´re crazy! :D
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
The flashing of the DSA-ROM was not successful. For 10 minutes just black screen.

Is it the first time so long?
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Steps are:

Flash update.img via MicroSD card in GPS slot or USB flash drive in USB slot with clear option.

After, got to second option from bottom to clear CACHE and all. The reboot unit. Should see dancing androids for a long time.

IT will the start the home screen.. Leave the unit alone, it will reboot to setup more stuff. reboot is 2 times.

Second time you should be good.
[MTCB Software Development] Thodai:
Check. I did it with USB and clear all.

After the installation I saw for 10 minutes my set bootlogo (Volkswagen).

There was always a popup window for a very short time (to fast, i can not read it). After these 10 minutes, I ended the boot process by going to the recovery menu. Wrong?

Then i wipe data and clear all.

Volkswagen Bootlogo shows for two Minutes, then the screen turns to black. When I pressed a key, I heard the confirmation tone as if the system had started, only with black screen.

Should I just have more patience?

The reason why I want to stay at 5.1.1 is: It's booting a little moment faster, and, .... the first Bootpicture of Malaysk 4.4.4 is very ugly :eek:

Best regards

Thomas
[MTCB Software Development] Oldpapa49:
Clear cache is a choice located 2 place from the bottom. Do it again.

It will reboot on its own a 2nd time.

but you should get an image even after 1st boot.

Maybe search for black screen after upgrade?
