[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CraiaSoftware:
I am currently using an awesome SMS/Call blocking app called aFirewall Blocker. It seems that the developer (I think it was Thomas Tong [MENTION=1640915]thl16888[/MENTION]) has discontinued the app and it has been removed from the Play store. It's unfortunate, as the app is now causing issues in Android Pie and I would have loved an update.

I am looking for a replacement app that can block texts and calls and put them, without notification, into an archive section that can be restored later. Being able to setup the blacklists with google's contact groups would be great. I know on my Samsung Note 8 the default "Messages" app has a feature like this but it does not allow scheduling. I need it to be able to perform the blocking on a set of schedules. Such as nights and weekends.

For example, I have set up aFirewall to block all my work contracts (as defined by the google contacts "work" group that I set up) on nights, weekends and optionally another schedule for vacations. All texts and calls from work people go unannounced and are "archived" or hidden until I decide to open pandoras box when I am ready. I can then read the texts and see who called and un-archive the texts back into my main text message conversations. The app even had the ability to send an auto-reply, which was great for vacations.

The point of the app is to keep my sanity and avoid having to stress out when I see people constantly and rudely trying to bother me at all hours of the night and weekends.

Anyone know of a good replacement? Even if it is a side loaded, and not officially accepted by google, app?
[Xposed Framework Modules] TH3UNKN0WN:
Hello together,

this is my first attempt for a XPOSED Module. For this task I build a module which marks the correct answer with a "✓".

I done this, because the original module wasn't updated since 10-12 months and isn't working anymore.

I tested this module with the newest version of Quizduell Premium (the german app for QuizClash). It should work for other countries aswell, but couldn't test it.

If you have some trouble/problems or I'm missing some information give me a message or post it here.

Tested App:

QuizDuell

6.0.6 (1523)

Tested Device:

Samsung Galaxy Note 9

Android Nougat

Magisk

EdXposed

XPOSED-Repo: de.th3unkn0wn.xposed.modules.quizduellhook (I'm not allowed to post links, because I'm new here.)

[Xposed Framework Modules] XlAfbk:
I'm curious, how do you know which answers is right? Does the server actually send that info along with the question??? They can't be that stupid...
[Xposed Framework Modules] TH3UNKN0WN:
I'm just hooking methods in their QuestionModel. There is a getter and a setter for the correct answer.. so yeah. They store all these information client-sided after you loaded the question. So all I had to do is to use the getter and then again the setter to append the symbol. :crying:

In the next few days I will use the same method to mark the correct answer for the "special modes". It's also possible to mark the answer your opponent gave with (again) the same methods..

[Xposed Framework Modules] loc1507:
Sorry for the offtopic question but I'm wondering how you managed to run EdXposed with Nougat? Are you using Samsung Stock Rom or something like LOS? And which Version oft EdXposed do you use?

Thanks in advance.
[Xposed Framework Modules] TH3UNKN0WN:
I installed EdXposed via Magisk. EdXposed should be working for all Nougat ROMs as far as I know. I'm using the Stock-ROM with the newest EdXposed version.

I got really few spare time actually. I will release the source code (few lines of code, nothing to worry about) next week and link it here as a gitlab repo.

Can you send the log of xposed and give some information about your device and apps? For me it is still working.
[Xposed Framework Modules] fKm:
Hey, with OOS 10 and EdXppsed Beta I get a FC of Quizduell ? do you need any logs?

Edit: False alarm. After some minutes after reboot everything is working great under Android 10 ??
[Xposed Framework Modules] TH3UNKN0WN:
Alright. Thats good! What did you mean with FC?
[Xposed Framework Modules] TH3UNKN0WN:
Sorry, didn't was aware of your message. Still problems?

[Samsung Gear S3] Youdoofus:
when i select recovery in the reboot menu, it never goes to the stock recovery. i just want to hard reset it, and its not giving me the option to do so. Any suggestions?

just so you know where im at, i can easily get to the screen that you press the power button to scroll thru the boot options, but when i press the top button to select it, nothing happens, Ive also held the top button with no result
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] __iggy:
simple solution to remove "bad key" at start of boot, this happens when bootloader is unlocked on all moto devices afaik.

1. unlock bootloader

2. download minimal adb-fastboot tools

3. reboot to recovery (restart + hold vol down)

4. in cmd within adb tools write "fastboot flash logo_a logo.bin"

5. done

fastboot flash logo_a logo.bin

logo.bin
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] PartyDroid:
it doesnt seem to be working can you please provide some pictures or a video link as where we can see the changes because i have done what it is that you said here and no changes.
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] __iggy:
works for me, I have no bad key sign at top left..
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] __iggy:
It should work on most retail stock ROMs I dumped my logo_a and edited with this
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] PartyDroid:

[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Viva La Android R.I.P.:
Nice work OP. Confirmed working on Moto G7 Play (xt1952-4) on latest stock Android 9 Pie build (PCY29.105-134).
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Life_goes_on:
It worked for me on Moto G7 Stock Rom. Nice job Iggy.

All the stock roms I have looked at for this phone do not have a logo_a patition. I flashed mine fastboot flash logo logo.bin with the logo bin being iggy logo.bin

I supect this is why some people are having problems making it work.
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Omar04:
Change working directory to the one we're the logo.bin is at.

Or type command and then drag and drop the file hit enter
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Zodigram:
Is it supposed to look like this? The white line in the middle is me covering up the the bad key number, since idk if that's sensitive info or not

https://imgur.com/a/pWfmC4Y
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Life_goes_on:
The bad key is not a number it just says "bad key" so not particularly sensitive in this instance.

That is the correct logo, but your numbers, whatever they are, and the positions of those numbers is not something I am familiar with or seen. Rooted phone.

Where did you get the unlock bootloader key?

and what phone is it?
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Geofferey:
It's the fingerprint of the installed boot.img. It's normal and no it's not sensitive, just a security feature so you know your image hasn't been modified. I've only seen it on my device when I modified image with AIK tho. Magisk can cause it to show too if it decides to sign the image. Look up Android verified boot.

https://source.android.com/security/verifiedboot/boot-flow

If moto would implement it properly it would allow those of use who unlocked to potentially re-secure our devices by re-locking with a custom rom. Too bad... All the while they allow users to flash logo partition which undermines AVB entirely. It appears we only deserve security if we run software they hold the keys to which isn't secure at all.
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Zodigram:
I have a RETUS Moto G7 Power rooted with Magisk

I'm guessing it's gotta be Magisk then, since I rooted by using a patched boot image. Thanks for the heads up
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] Life_goes_on:
Just for More info: I have a Moto G7 power rooted with a Magisk patched boot image running RETAR. I get "bad key" white letters and off to the side of the Motorola logo so it hides. I also remember using one stock ROM that had "bad key" for awhile and the it change to N/A top left corner that just flashed. I have no idea why that happened so maybe some can explain, but I would settle for that again.

I your number sequence is white letters you could reverse the Motorola log to white on a black ground and hide the numbers.
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] taemta3:
Here is what I did to get rid of my bad key:

Download the moto boot logo maker from xda and thank the developer...show your love now ya leechers!

https://xdaforums.com/moto-g/themes-apps/app-motorola-boot-logo-maker-source-t2848667

Use the moto boot logo maker to open your logo.bin from your software folder that you used to custom flash your phone. In the menu on the lower left hand corner you will see several logos and menus having to do with boot, battery, etc...go down in the boot menu to the one named "orange". In the splash screen sample on the right hand side you will see the bad key picture. Edit the orange menu bad key picture to a 1520X720 .png file of your choice. Go up in the file option on upper left hand side and save this file as a filenameyourchoice.bin. Open a command window in the folder where you saved the custom logo.bin file and fastboot flash logo_a filenameyourchoice.bin. Done.
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] xe500linux:

GOD BLESS YOU !!!

THANKS!!!!!
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] WoKoschekk:
This command could lead to confusion. It assumes that your active boot slot is _a.

The command should look like this

fastboot flash logo logo.bin

Fastboot always uses the current active slot. I'm convinced that some people here aren't able to install the custom logo because they are on the active slot _b!
[Moto G7 Power Guides, News, & Discussion] mrbox23:
Awesome! I use a different one for a and b

Install my cab on your Shadow

Restart your phone, After Phone boots setup mms by following these directions.

Edit #2

Uploaded new cab that now includes the New MMSC Settings For T-Mobile. So the following List of instructions are no longer needed if you are on t-mobile. I will leave them here just incase. However all that is needed is to run the cab and reboot and then test out mms by sending a picture message to yourself.

Edit #3

Added some original t-mobile rom settings for large mms pictures and movies.

Not needed for the cab. Instructions here for educational reasons.
[Shadow ROM Development] kormanb1123:
This is great ShadowMike. I was trying to set up mms for long time, and u came with that. Thanks man
[Shadow ROM Development] shadowmike:
Thank ND4SPD He sent me the oem folder I just put it into the cab :)
[Shadow ROM Development] kormanb1123:
I thank him not once for all that great work he did, but certainly thanks you both guys:D
[Shadow ROM Development] tweker:
Thanks a lot
[Shadow ROM Development] HOLYLHP00:
how to danglowd

thank you lots!!

I want to upgrade to wm6.1!!

how to do？？thanks a lot!!
[Shadow ROM Development] squidbutt:
i still cant get or send mms after following your instructions to the dot
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
I installed the cab and confirmed the settings as shown on the first post. I can send out the pics just under 300k like its supposed to...

but i can't receive any pics?

When i send myself a pic from another phone i see the phone light up for a bit and then nothing..

it supposed to light up then change the icon to E for edge and show me a like inbox icon displaying receiving a MMS but that didn't happen...

anybody have any thoughts?
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
Can you give out what the registry is supposed to look like after your cab is installed?

I still have SampleMMS and no Tmobile MMS and not sure if it makes a difference with my issue.. also most values on send and receive are not at 300k when i look under arcsoft in the registry..

I installed your cab and set up the settings like your post said but I still can't receive mms.
[Shadow ROM Development] diversificationied:
The cab isn't setting up the gprs settings on my phone, am I doing something wrong?
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
No your not, that is the same issue I am having.. you have to set it up yourself.. with the instructions on the first post..

I haven't been able to receive MMS using that cab but I can send them out up to 300k ...
[Shadow ROM Development] diversificationied:
Yea, ended up doing that.

Likewise, incoming mms aren't coming in. =/

edit: and now I can't send either. oops.
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
install the cab then ensure the GPRS settings are correct.. to test send an MMS to your email.. make a contact title it something like "my email" and put your email and make sure your email is saved as email and not mobile or anything else.. then send a pic to your email. you should be able to send it.. the same would work if you would send it to a differ cell phone..

the only issue here is that the incoming will not work and I'm not sure why..
[Shadow ROM Development] diversificationied:
Turns out it was crappy reception in my shop I can send them. =X

Now it's just the phone mocking me by lighting up when an mms comes in.
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
mocking lol yeah mine does this too..
[Shadow ROM Development] Pummel454:
OOPS

I instaled the cab and now my MMS is gone.?
[Shadow ROM Development] kron2:
I have HTC Juno/Phoebus WM6.1 Clean Developer Edition and have no problems with small images when I receive a picture it is the same size mms and email I made my on mms files with ND4SPD from the oem folder but I tried

[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
I just did a clean install of the ROM and went ahead and installed the suggested cab..when I got to this step there was no option to select Tmobile MMS??? I thought the default option to select was WAP? in any case it didnt' work :(

also when you install the mms cab it already puts a t mobile mms settings in the message options..but its flawed because it doesn't let you edit or delete it. you have to select it as default or create a new mms settings under different name and set that to default. i did that with your suggestioned and created new settings with differ name. Event editing the suggested settings from the cab doesn't work because it forces you to save new name and it keeps the same old settings.
[Shadow ROM Development] kron2:
I reinstalled shadowmoikes mms cab and tried it with out wifi and had no internet so I had to uninstall it and had internet did you louse it to there has to be a resin my mms works with images the other thing I did is use network wizard but it will set the data to wap. a long with mms
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
well the only thing I can get working with it is sending pics out and upon receiving my phone lights up for few seconds and then the light dims back down.. when it lights up the bars do not change to E like it is supposed to to connect to receive the pic.

Do you have the network wizard cab? do you mind posting it here? I have one from another thread but upon instillation no icons show up...

I sincerely appreciate you helping me out.
[Shadow ROM Development] kron2:
here is the network wizard cab you have to go to windows folder and set it there and it will set the data and mms to wap but you can change data back
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
how do you "set it in your windows folder"? do you mean just copy and save it in the windows folder without installing the cab? when you execute the cab it gives you the option to install to device not for specific folder that I can see?
[Shadow ROM Development] kron2:
just install the cab to the device and then go to windows and look for it then set it up
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
I uninstalled shadowmikes arcsoft cab and installed the network wizard then went into the windows folder and set up for US and Tmobile..it asked for restart and so i did. I noticed under connections it set everything up properly but i didn't have access to MMS options.. when i selected a picture there was no option to send pic..and when i went into my texts there was no option to compose a new MMS to send out.. ???

did i miss a step?
[Shadow ROM Development] kron2:
you still need the mms cab i have bin trying to post the one with no settings but i can't MMS options is part of the mms cab
[Shadow ROM Development] dilfatx:
I tried that aswell.. have that running now as a matter of fact and same issue as before..can only send out...

I was going to ask the same thing from you.. Im going to send ShadowMike a request if he can post a "clean" arcsoft cab.. im thinking those mms settings he has already set might be casing the issue but who knows..
[Shadow ROM Development] ncd_x:
--- sorry my bad: Just read the thread Topic---

Does it need any specific baseline ROM?

I tried to install it on --MyHTC--'s excellent ROM but got a very strange error:

"The program or setting cannot be installed because it does not have sufficient system permissions"

All other cabs (like Opera) have installed fine.

--- sorry my bad: Just read the thread Topic---
[Shadow ROM Development] shadowmike:
ok so how are you guys havign problems ?

this installs mms. It doesnt set up your connections.

you have to make a new gprs connection to wap connecting to wap.voicestream.com for your phone to recieve mms.

also... Im not going to be installing myhtc's rom so I cant really helo on support for his rom. sorry. if his rom was so great you wouldnt need my cab. Ill stick to nd4spds rom since I have NO Problems with it.

Ill add the sms wap settings for gprs and change the mmscsettings so that you will be able to edit them. give me some time. as I havnt used mms in along time.
[Shadow ROM Development] kron2:
mike if you look at your first post this is why people think it will set them up

Edit #2

Uploaded new cab that now includes the New MMSC Settings For T-Mobile. So the following List of instructions are no longer needed if you are on t-mobile. I will leave them here just incase. However all that is needed is to run the cab and reboot and then test out mms by sending a picture message to yourself.

ncd_x

myhtc rom don't need this cab for mms it has it and sets it up it's working for me

quote:shadomike

if his rom was so great you wouldnt need my cab

why the sarcasm I think it is great to have roms from other cooks like nd4spd myhtc and hikey it will just help in a rom with no bugs and clean rom with no bugs to make a kitchen with
[Shadow ROM Development] shadowmike:
well you see kron... i made this under the assumpion that ppl whould have everything setup on the 6.1 rom as per internet and wap connections to were all you have to do is install this cab and your done.

thats all i do and it works perfect.

also the sarcasm was for those users who in the new rom release did nothing but look down on nd4spd saying his roms were crap and the new one was perfect.

when if it wasnt for nd4spd we would have been on 6.0 for the past months and been waiting for 6.1 still.
[Shadow ROM Development] -MyHTC-:
@shadowmike

It’s clear you’re angry however your remarks are no better.

You have somehow managed to twist things and make it sound like I did something wrong.

So why don’t you leave me and my ROM out of the issue and say something to those who have pissed you off.

I have never said anything bad about ND4SPD or his ROMs I don’t even own a Shadow and this is stupid that I be drug into this.

ND4SPD and I have made very different ROMs I think this covers wide base of people and it’s a good thing.
[Shadow ROM Development] ncd_x:
Sorry for causing all this confusion. I tried to install it on MyHTC's ROM (without reading that this is for ND4SPD ROM) and posted my experience here.

I had no intention of dissing any other ROM while calling MyHTC's ROM "excellent". I am sorry if I ruffled any feathers. That was absolutely not my intent. MyHTC is the only ROM I have tried so far (since it was the newest) and I am quite happy with it. Calling it "excellent" does not comment in any way on ND4SPDs ROM. I am sure that is an excellent one too, it's just that I haven't tried it.

I really appreciate that you guys ND4SPD, shadowmike and --MyHTC-- are here and doing this. You all contribute to this community with your own strong points and are all winners. I am personally thankful to all you folks for the nice update I got to my phone.
