any one try the new update with one ui.2.5??? thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] winol:
I also saw the update in the playstore, but I did not fownloaded it, as my ccswe app is still working ok, but due to the firmware version I currently have , which is the april patch, I always block all the stuff related to firmware updates, precisely to avoid problems that sometimes appear in some updates, I really value ccswe above many things, so, I have not updated since april, but now I read here that this ccswe update brings back the functionality of the app, I am curious as to if it works fine with the latest firmware

CCSWE is back! Working just as well as before, happy to report

Any idea why I can't get, the Non-Root Paid version to install on a second device? I have a second Gmail account as main account on second device, but all Google Play Apps are linked to my original Gmail account-- in Google Play, on second device, it says that I already own the app, but still wants to charge me when I try to install it on second device- confusing.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
I had a similar issue about two weeks ago, it's a Google Play Store issue.

What worked for me was changing my method of payment & then, putting the same method of payment back on the account (same one that I used to purchase the license).
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] haybill:
I'll give it a try--, thanks.

Version 6.1.1 (currently Beta) is working.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] haybill:
Oh, jeez, how come they don't go after the other app(can't remember it's name right now, brain freeze!) that does a similar job?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] winol:
The current version, 6.1.1 is working fine, and it is not a beta one, since the dev published the "new" app version, it has not had any problems, now, as for" use the other app" remark, yes, package disabler pro works fine, but, it is not as versatile as ccswe, which has more granular control within the apps

The dev stated this:

- The Knox license was revoked by Samsung for a second time in September.

- When Samsung terminates a license they terminate the entire partner account.

- A partner account requires some level of validation from Samsung in order to get approved.

- The first time my license was revoked I was not prepared AND was in the hospital for 76 days. Therefore it took quite a long time to resolve the issue.

- As some of you may have seen when Samsung revokes my license I update the application with a call to action for users to attempt creating a partner account and donate it to me.

- This second time the license was revoked I already had multiple users who told me they were applying for a partner account or had already been approved. That plus the fact I was available to work on the problem made it much quicker to resolve.

- Since I already had to create a new application in the Play Store I switched to a paid only model. I did so because Package Disabler Pro has not had it's license revoked during the two times mine has been (even though I know Samsung is aware of it) and the only real difference is that mine was free. This wasn't the route I wanted to go but I also don't want to be going through licenses so quickly as they are not easy to come by.

- My refund policy is generous but users do need to email me with the information. The next release (6.1.0) will clearly spell out my refund policy when you first launch the application.

As always you can contact me at*support@ccswe.com*if you have additional questions.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] haybill:
Incidentally, if the same thing that happened to me ( the inability to get the app to install on a second device) apart from trying the method outlined above, I just waited a day or so (probably while Google Play got it's **** together!?) and tried again and eventually the app (that was in my Google Play Apps Library) installed on my second device, and works fine on both. Brilliant app, thanks to a great Dev.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] donc113:
Package disabler pro now requires you to use ADB to make the app the owner of the phone... Not sure I like that idea. Seems like that's an open highway for remote access.

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------

The "Early Access" of the new App Manager (ccswe) v6.2 that is on Google Play won't initially validate purchase.... I am guessing I will have to wait a day. We'll see. And there was a small update on the Play Store and it's working perfectly now.

Yea!

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] taiowa72:
I had to purchase it yet AGAIN yesterday. ? This makes 3 times now. This is rediculous. I feel like I'm supporting this developer way too much to keep Samsung from evoking his KNOX rights.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] sansnil:
Wow you're out what $7.47 USD? Times must be rough for you. Blame Samsung not the dev. The dev is working hard and trying his best to keep the app going. I'm happy to support him and the app vs that POS Package Disabler which you're encouraged to use if fed up with CCSWE.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] postal302:
I'm with [MENTION=2317402]taiowa72[/MENTION] on this one. I've purchased CCSWE multiple times now just to find it dead at a moment I need it. It's not about the money. A better system would be to have a free app and a separate paid "pro license," then if the main app gets killed by Samsung, a new version with a new knox license can be issued and reference the previously paid pro license. Other apps like FX do this.

While I was a strong supporter of CCSWE, it bothers me the way the dev gives snarky replies and canned emails, while also suggesting that instead of requesting a refund, which will be delayed because of the volume of refunds, you could just donate the purchase again. I'm choosing not to continue supporting this dev and app because I can't rely on it.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] taiowa72:
I'd bought the Package Disabler Pro way way back until all the sudden I reinstall it and now they require the ADB stuff. I don't know how to do all that, plus it wanted me to uninstall all these other things first. I thought that that was rediculous. Then I discovered CCSW and fell in love until I kept having to purchase it again and again. I was supportive to the developer the first time and angry at Samsung, the second and third time. Now I'm dreading the day, which could be any day now, when Samsung will pull this **** again.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] donc113:
CCSWE only required 1 purchase a year ago. Then, after Samsung pulled its license for the 2nd time, the author made it a 1 time purchase and changed the name to App Manager. I did that to get version 6.2.1 and it's been working fine since.

I don't recall the cost of the original CCSWE Pro license other than low, as in a few dollars. The latest version is $2.47. So I have spent about $5 altogether... Certainly not a big deal.

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
^truth^ It's not a big deal as long as you have functional blocker. I shell out more for wireless service every week than for all I spent to have a blocker for the last year.

I found a new way to lock down Google Backup Transport and Android polling garbage, Karma FW.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/...+fw&pcampaignid=APPU_1_3bCpX5LkMNKAtgXC7YDwDA

It's easy on the battery.

Blocked Google Play Services and uid 1000 and boom, battery usage drop straight down just like that.

Gmail, texting are all still functional. Need to test bt...

Currently the firewall is using less battery than the Google junkware was burning up.

Still playing with it but so far, so good.

No ads, no excessive permissions like so many others do and so far the least power consumption. It looks a little primitive compared to some others with not all of the advanced options but it's working like a charm.

I'm starting to think a blocker isn't enough; the no root firewall completes it:)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] Nastrahl:
Do you know any drawback to deny access to the network for Google Play Service (and for what it needs to access it) ?

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] w41ru5:
Thanks for the play services and uid 1000 tip. I'm using NetGuard as a fw and all looks OK. I've checked Bluetooth connectivity with the buds + and there is no issue, music plays fine.

Attached a list with all the uid 1000 related, forwho'sinterested. If I fw one of them, then all of them are fwed.

Thanks man, have a nice day.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
I thinks it's Google Play Services that's the primary culprit with constant data sharing. Once a day you may need to enable it to reinitilize gmail but normally gmail works with it disabled (my gmail sync is disabled). Messaging polls normally like this.

I was blocking Google Backup Transport and Framework but after blocking GPS with the firewall and clearing their data (again) these apks finally stopped sucking battery. I enabled them and they are uses almost no battery; will see if this holds:p

All Google feedback, backup, sync, and most permissions are disabled, automated attendant trash and all advanced Google services. I flat out don't trust Google; the less the better!

Battery life improves immensely but damn you need to really screw with it... all power management except for fast charging and power/screen setting to optimize are toggled off. Then I disable Device Care.

Otherwise enabling power management of any kind will eat the battery on this Pie load. All buckets in standby should show as active otherwise power management is running.

Apps like Brave need to closed after each session or it will eat battery by constantly polling the internet.

A 45-70% ie 25% partial battery charge will yield about 2.5-3 hours of heavy usage now.

So a 13 minute fast charge about 3 times a day is all I need:)
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] taiowa72:
The developer emailed me a while back after unasked him the last time CCSW was revoked, if I have to pay again and again if Samsung did this again.

Quote:

"Unfortunately I have had to update my refund policy and you will need to purchase it again. I'm working on an alternative to resolve this but Samsung is really working hard to shut me down. Here is my refund policy for future reference:

There is no guarantee that my, or any application, will continue to function or be supported forever. Because of this the Google Play store refund policy allows for 48 hours to request a refund.

Due to the nature of this application, and the fact that it violates Samsung's license agreements, I am unable to provide a refund, for any reason, after 48 hours."

This email response was on November 3, 2020

But like you said, it's no big deal I guess. It's not like I'm going to go broke supporting him.

Karma Firewall doesn't work with AdBlock
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
How so?

It has a few little quirks but Karma Firewall is the $hit.

Very low battery usage, no ads... and free.

The most battery friendly no root firewall I've -ever-used.

Lol is Battery Tracker false reporting again?

It's a little basic but has everything you need.

It's log makes finding troublemakers easy.

It's a keeper.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] donc113:
It doesn't work with AdBlock because AdBlock builds a VPN to it's DNS servers so known ad sites addresses won't resolve. Karma needs to build a VPN also and Android apparently isn't happy with 2 VPNs

Not sure why Karma needs to build a VPN if it's a true firewall but I suspect since it doesn't require root, it uses its VPN to filter requests from disallowed programs or users.

In any event, as soon as I turned on Karma, AdBlock quit working.

Don
[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Karma definitely uses a VPN connection.

Don't know. I have AdBlock plus not sure if it ever did anything... need to muck with it.

In 2 hours of heavy surfing last night KF allegedly accounted for only 0.12% battery usage.

Usually this type of app burns up battery.

Still playing with it but can find much bad to say about it. AND getting better battery life.

It also ferreted out that Brave was using internet constantly even when closed. Playing with Brave to stfu but Brave's behavior is ticking me off.

Only downsides I'm seeing are:

Need to enable Google Play Services briefly sometimes to down/upload gmail; a couple seconds on and it's good to go, then turn it off.

Gmaps doesn't work when googlePS is blocked. Meh... tough. No love of Gmaps here.

It was showing googlePS by name but now it's displaying it by UID number, strange but no foul.

KF is proving to be a simple but very valuable tool.

again not working ?

it asks me again, to activate the Knox-Licence. which doesn't work. unknown error 701. is this dead again, for you guys too ?

[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Romain1911:
Hey everybody,

Since I work at a phone repair shop I have access to a lot of little parts and things to do modifications to phones.

Lately I've been thinking of taking a heatpipe from something, and slapping it into my Pixel 3 just to see what kind of difference it may or may not make.

I have a heatpipe from a Samsung S10 already pulled just waiting for install.

But I'm hoping some people can chime in with the temperatures that their stock pixel 3 devices generally reach, so that I can compare after the "mod".

Preferably three temperatures:

Idle

Load (Video)

Load (3d game)

And if your feeling generous a fourth temperature from using a CPU burn in app.

I'm currently using CPU monitor to check my temps, so using that would be prefered so that there are no different temps between apps.

And yes I realize this won't be a perfect test due to what apps everybody may have running in the background, but ballpark figures are better than none at all lol

For reference my temps stock:

Idle: 31°-33°

Load (Video): 35°-37°

Load (3D game): 36°-40°
[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] Romain1911:
Ok so the heatpipe has been installed since later in the afternoon yesterday.

The heatpipe has cooler Master thermal paste on either side to help heat transfer.

It sits directly under the motherboard, and runs underneath the battery.

Initially the temps were a little worse of course since the thermal paste had to "set"

But I now have some base figures.

At idle: 25°-31° (this large variance is likely due to background apps updating/running such as Facebook, messenger, email and ambient temperature however it mostly sits around 29°)

Load (Video): 29°-34°

Mostly used YouTube, but watched a movie on Netflix

I did have a 3 hour google duo video call with my favorite lady. After about an hour and a half the cpu hit 47° and stayed between 45°-47°

Fairly hot, but prior to this I've seen it hit 49° on a duo call so I'm not complaining.

Load (3D game):35°-37°

Obviously this one is subjective due to the game, and what settings it's on. Though temps didn't seem to change much.

One thing I have noticed from all this is that cpu monitor also tells you your battery temperature, and weirdly enough the battery has actually gone down in temp 2°-3° from where it would normally sit.

What I mean is that at stock the battery was usually 1°-2° celcius higher than the cpu temp. Where as after this mod it usually runs the opposite 1°-2° lower temp than the cpu.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] typeyourname:
Hello all, I'm a newbie at this forum but I have to say, the work being done by all you people is fantastic.

One question I have however, Cooked ROMS are all well and good but they wipe everything out when a new one's installed. As far as I know, there is no way to back up messages on outlook and resyncing can be quite a pain. Is there a program that backs up contacts, messages etc and restores them after the upgrade? As far as I've read, using conventional backup programs and restoring afterward is a no-no.

Any clues?

Thanks.

What is Ubuntu Touch?

Ubuntu Touch is the touch-friendly mobile version of Ubuntu.

This operating system is developed and maintained by UBports: An international community of passionate volunteers.

This means Ubuntu Touch is 100% community driven and independent.

What is Halium?

Halium is the collaborative project to unify the Hardware Abstraction Layer for projects which run GNU/Linux on mobile devices with pre-installed Android.

How it is a GSI?

First of all, I should mention ubports GSI definition is different from android, but both are generic.

ubports root file system was always generic and works for most cases, but devs were porting halium system image to add device-specific (HALs and configs) support to ubports Android container.

But after project treble which introduced in android 8, all device-specific parts of android system image moved to vendor partition and we can use "Generic system images" over one vendor partition.

In halium version 9, we use this adventure and have a totally generic system image + root file system.

Requirements:

The only Requirement of booting this GSI is having Halium patched kernel.

Keep in mind having android 9 firmware installed on the device as GSI base is mandatory (GSI can be used on android 8.0 and 8.1 vendors but experimental and not supported yet)

How to install?

For installation guide and kernel patchings details check ubports wiki page: Click Here

Download:

Whats suppose to work?

Bluetooth

Camera

Cellular Radio

Mobile Data

GPS

Graphics

Sensors

Sound

In-call Audio

Touch

Wifi

Vibration

Fingerprint

Anbox

Media Playback

Known bugs?

Bugs are very device specific and mostly should blame device kernel.

Hi looks great but should there be any concerns that this shows in the screenshots its based on nougat and Ubuntu 16.04 just curious if there would be a more up to date version in the works
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] kiran G.:
Ooook....i want to try..but this not for people like me who dont even know what is patching a kernel.!?:D
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] Liftedcorn:
Exactly. I need to learn about patching the kernel before trying this out.
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] erfanoabdi:
The ubuntu touch is based on ubuntu 16.04 LTS version and gets needed security patches so no worries

And about the Android N screenshots, that was anbox (kinda an Android emulator) to run Android apps on gnu/linux operating systems

But this GSI needs Android 9 vendor for base to boot correctly..
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] twfs:
Thank you for the reply will try this asap!

I'm using a Moto g6 play (Jeter) I am using pie vendor on the GSI I am currently on. Besides flashing the Ubuntu GSI and the pie vendor, do i need to patch my kernel too?
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] twfs:
I believe so hoping I get a chance to try this today but if you beat me to it let us know how it goes. I will be trying it on a moto g7 power and a pixel 2xl if everything goes smooth
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] Sands207:
Are you going to patch your kernel? Our kernel source is a real unorganized mess, I'm looking forward to trying this out but im not looking forward to untangling the disaster we have on github to do it
[Treble-Enabled Device Development A/AB ROMS] twfs:
Yeah if I understand correctly that is the only way it will boot. Haven't looked at the g6 forums in awhile to see if there might be a custom kernel that may be easier to modify because I don't think we will get lucky enough to find one with it already built in.
