[Android Apps and Games] Saber:
Educating users about the dangers of app permissions

Introduction

Data privacy is one of the most hotly-discussed topics in the digital world today. Many developers have made an effort to help increase the security of the user's data, however code is not perfect.

Currently, it is far too easy for users to enable permissions that will then potentially allow adversaries to uniquely identify the user and hence compromise their privacy.

What Privacy Helper brings is a simple, easy-to-use educational app with that leverages the mobile platform to inform and demonstrate effectively and interactively.

Features

Simple privacy quiz to test the user's privacy knowledge

Guide on data privacy, and the problem with Android

Guides on disabling permissions, unused apps, and other mitigations

Simple map demonstration of location tracking

List of dangerous permissions used by popular Android applications

Guide on Open Source app alternatives

List of alternative resources to help the user increase their knowledge

Sharing with popular platforms including Facebook, Twitter, and more

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Questions & Answers] vipul621:
So I was just watching some youtube video on my Redmi Note 4. Suddenly it froze and dimmed for a few seconds, then the screen goes black, and after a few seconds, it was back on and the video was still playing. It kept happening over and over again, though the audio was fine. I restarted the device and it showed 'unlocked' at the bottom when booting. I don't understand how it unlocked itself, without me doing anything.

I installed 3 different antivirus applications, none of them came up with anything. There's one other thing that's happening. I don't know if it's related to this or not, but my Mi Wifi app is showing that I'm not connected to the internet (BTW I updated my router 2 days ago). Also, I have not installed any new applications on my device from outside sources, neither have I tried to unlock or root my phone in any way. There's absolutely nothing that I did to unlock my device. I googled this problem and it came up with nothing. Is it hacked or something? What do I do?

You have been blessed by the bootloader god himself. He has blessed you with the unlocking power. Accept his blessings for he wants you to join the heaven filled with sacred custom roms gods, kernel goddess and fellow mods. It's your time to go. You've achieved nirvana.

Hello,

This OP3 I got here, had a dm_verity error. Afterwards I used the Qualcomm way to get past that.

Now I'm getting the issue that it shows me the "Start do md5 checksum" list and there are 2 things in red (System : failed) and at the end it said md5 checksum failed.

I tried various amount of things I found all around the internet but this is what prevents them from fixing my problem:

- My lack of skill and probably knowledge

- Phone isn't oem unlocked

- Phone's partition can't be edited

- Bootloader version is empty (locked aswell, used an AIO tool to confirm)

- FastBoot is possible (volume up + power)

- I can't get into ADB sideload

- There's no TWRP or anything

There are some stuff in this list that most likely are the same thing (as I said, I lack knowledge).

I don't know what else I can do. Do you guys have an idea?

Much love,

rZergling

[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] jayb222:
I remember there was some rom development for the moto z play when I had it. There seems to be no interest for this 3rd generation model. Is there something like an uncrackable, locked bootloader that's stopping developers in their tracks or just no interest in kernels and tweaked roms?
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Darth:
Perhaps some, but from what I've seen, (and I've owned Moto X, Z, Z2play and now this one) there's not a whole lot of development. Some, but not much. Probably because the OS is very vanilla and smooth, for one. And two, unfortunately, they are just not very popular devices.

On the Moto X, most seemed to want to just root and use xposed, and stay stock. Otherwise cool proprietary Moto apps and functions were lost. Not available on custom roms.

The fact that downgrading is near impossible without bricking doesn't help either.

Warranty is void when you unlock bootloader on Moto's site and that probably deters many from messing with the device too.

But this phone is very new still, hopefully some development starts up. Just may take more time, cause it's not that popular and not as many own it. Developers may not be buying it cause it's the 3rd generation now and they've seen that it's not that popular in the past. Time will tell. ;)

Oh, and if mod use is affected by custom roms, that would be a huge roadblock too. For many folks anyways.
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] G.I. Jew:
When do you think root will be available for this phone? That is what I am waiting for before I buy it.
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Darth:
Probably not until a developer or two get this device and work on it.

Problem is, it's 3rd generation, and developers know that development is quiet on the Z's. Many Moto's really. So they choose a more popular device in many cases.

Hopefully we see some action soon though! Or learn to do for ourselves. :eek:

[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] mykenyc:
Just bought this phone and will see about development, I want to get back into it, the only thing I built before was a kernel for Surnia , development is very different nowadays so if it's not to hard count me in.
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] vq8acsxht:
Hopefully we can get twrp/root. Viper would be awesome on this phone! Thinking about this phone but I AM NOT GOING TO THROW AWAY HARDWARE WARRENTY TO UNLOCK BOOTLOADER. Oneplus 6 looks better but sucks with no fm radio/duel stereo speakers/sd card.

input?? opionion??
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Darth:
You won't have root then on this device, if it becomes an option. Have to unlock bootloader, which kills your warranty.
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] mykenyc:
I wonder about this, has there been a case where a manufacturer refused to repair a phone because of warranty root wise?
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] vq8acsxht:
That is what I am wondering, also. I do not mind them killing the software support. Besides, sounds fony bolony that a person rooting can mess up software that factory reset can't fix. On the other hand, TWRP can brick a phone by flashing things. But if GPS/screen dies, that is not because of TWRP/flashing things, that is because chips have failed aka. hardware failure. What can cause hardware/cpu's failure is bring cpu's up to 100% and leaving there or overclocking them but who would do that? I think a custom ROM is easier on the processors because of all the stock crapware that continues digging for hours on hours for private information making the phone hot. The facebook app is the one that made my phone warm and when I killed it with a root uninstaller, the phone cooled back down.
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] Darth:
Actually recent Motos are easy to brick if you do things wrong. Particularly trying to downgrade firmware. Check Out other moto sections, lots of "help I bricked my phone" threads. Many can be fixed by us, but how many don't even try and send it in under warranty?

So that's one definite reason to deny warranty. Though its not directly related to rooting.
[Moto Z3 Play Questions & Answers] vq8acsxht:
I agree. I think they panic and need the phone to work. I like Samsung or Alcatel way of restore the phone to stock. Samsung especially. Turn phone off and plug it into the computer and send firmware to phone. I just wonder why newbies do not read and understand how to restore phone to stock BEFORE touching the phone. They do not ask themselves, "Do I have ALL OF THE TOOLS" to restore phone to factory settings/firmware and "Do I have the firmware". They just want to know how to do mods to phone to see what other tricks the phone can do. Roll over, but DO NOT PLAY DEAD! Crap, "My phone just died". Warranty, where's the warranty card and phone number, now?

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III Windows Mobile ROM De] P1Tater:
Can you even read. What the Hell?

I have an idea to solve your problems since reading is not in your list of things to do. And evidently someone gave you the phone, because if you paid for it, you would think you might be a little more careful.

1. Put down the phone.

2. Step away slowly.

3. Locate a large hammer.

4. Proceed back to the location where you laid your soon to be shiny brick.

5. Smash it with previously located large hammer.

6. Explain to mommy why your shiny brick/phone is in a million pieces.

7. Pull down pants and grab ankles. You about to get your fanny spanked by mommy.

8. Enjoy the nice new "Firefly" phone mommy bought you. <<Thank you extreme_g, I forgot about those phones.

[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] pligosv:
Hi,I am from Russia and this night i put my phone to charge for a night. And at morning i ve seen its turned off - I cant unlock it, charge it, nothing to do, phone like a brick and didnt response for any actions. Only after I pressed lock button for a 10 seconds and my phone is getting on. So, i searched this trouble and found same issue on our Russia 4pda forum. There are a lot of people faced with this problem, please tell me if you faced with this issue. I have this phone for a 2 days. First night it charged well, for a second - shutted down

PS. Phone didnt response for:

- Normal press for lock button to unlock phone

- Fingerprint touch to unlock

- Led indicator didnt work even if phone was on charging by cable ( no red or green light)

- Repeated plugging charging cable doesnt has any effect (usually phone starts charging)

- And only long press for lock button (10-15 seconds in my case) returned phone from this dead state

Have u unlocked bootloader or something
[Asus ZenFone Max Pro M1  Questions & Answers] stitch01:
I've been experiencing this, couple of days before I tried to wipe cache and it stopped from happening until today. Done another wipe cache and hoping it doesn't happen again. This is annoying. All along you think your phone is just on standby, but it isn't. It's actually turned off and had to hold the power button for like 10 secs just to power it on. I hope Asus fix this. I cannot find a lot of posts regarding this problem.

BTW: I'm running all stock, not rooted with bootloader still locked. The phone has been with me since Aug 9.

[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] sting12345:
Hey guys any help with this would be amazing. I grabbed this for really cheap the other day and thought it would be able to use ATT LTE since others have had success but no matter what it will only connect to H+ even when LTE finder finds the band I wanted. Really frusted as I thought I got the right model. There is only ONE international one right? Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks you guys. Hopefully I didn't mess up and get a wrong version or something though I can return it if I did.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] danman0:
I'm having the same issue, but on T-mobile! I don't know how to fix this.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] sting12345:
What I can't understand or just not knowing is the amazon version I have does 1,3,5,8 and up but the listings on Ebay have them 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,12 etc...basically all bands which I can't seem to figure out. Is there a difference? I have the UK model which is the Worldwide model not the chinese one but are there OTHER regional differences that unlock more bands? Is there a way to manually force this if so? I figured return to amazon and then get the ebay version but that is stupid if they are incorrect and they really dont' cover 2,4,5,12 for ATT that is needed.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] danman0:
I searched around today and found this. Scroll down to the connectivity part and you see that the phone supports 1 of 5 ATT LTE bands, and 0 of 5 T-Mobile LTE bands. However, I'm not sure if this information is accurate since my phone detects a neighboring band 4 LTE cell tower (which my old phone instantly connected to), but does not connect to it. Also, why is the rest of the forum quiet about this issue? Is it really just me and you that are experiencing it (or that live in the US)? I also am very confused why Huawei removed the USSD code menu option wherein you could force it to LTE. I've heard that changing something in the build.prop can force it, but you need to be rooted for that, and I've gotten bored of rooting phones lol (and the risks involved).

Luckily, for me, this isn't that big of a problem as data still works (albeit slowly), and in the beginning of September I'll be in France for at least a year. So, I made sure that this phone's bands matched up with what the carriers are on in France, so hopefully I should be fine. Otherwise, it's a sleek, awesome phone.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] Garkan:
Honor 10 isnt made for US and US bands, even if its the global version. The bands in US are different from those in EU or Asia.

As the guy above confirmed this, the it has just one LTE compatbile band at ATT.

[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] vampirian:
Yeap its a bit dead end without unlocking the bootloader. I dont know if by building and compiling original firmware from released sources and make the changes there, if it would allow you to install it.
[Honor 10 Questions & Answers] sting12345:
Yes I too can pick up band 4 on LTE finder on my phone but I cannot use it, if I could then I would have fine coverage. If I go 5 miles away the other half of the city has full ATT LTE 5 coverage so I was bummed LOL when I went up there and saw full bars LTE+ LOL. Yeah the ebay guys are just putting false info then. I have my bootloader code to unlock as I have done to my V10 but not sure how that would enable the other band 4 I need. I don't have quite that much experience.
