[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zoomol:
On my previous ROM (EnergyROM), I had MaxTTm installed and there is an option, wich allows You to change transparency of top, bottom and Manila tap-bar... Maby person, who developed MaxTTm can say something about that...
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Fallen Spartan:
MOD EDIT

Merged these 2 threads
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zoomol:
Question: could You please attach some screens, how does it look after cab's install?? I'm wondering, is this the thing, that I'm having on my mind...

EDIT

This doesn't solve my issue... I'm trying to make top and bottom bars transparent - I mean top bar (where icons are on it) and bottom (where we have text Phone, Contacts etc...).
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] x0a:
Ok, I'm your first tester if you release a cab. ;-) Just let me know.
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Fallen Spartan:
As I stated cabs where not to make top & bottom bars transparent. It only removed background to TF3D tabs & operator bar on TF3D homepage
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zoomol:
OK, so back to beginning... If someone have a clue, tip or any way of doing this (also by registry values), please let me know...

PS. I don't think, that merging my thread with this was good idea - I'm having other issue than x0a... But if forum rules are strict in this case, I can't do anything about it :)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] egoist6:
for those of you interested in hiding the bottom bar:

if have started a new thread here in the development section as i found the source code of dcinobar on the author's website. maybe someone can use this and create a new program
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zoomol:
When I try NoTopBar - my Manila Crashes :confused: I can use only standard Windows Default Today Plugin (in WM6.5)... :confused::confused:

NoBottomBar works fine...;)
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] Fallen Spartan:
Did you install sdkcerts first?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] zoomol:
Yes, I had it installed after flashed to new ROM. Always install sdkcerts after flash, that saves me surprizes ;)

What could cause this crash :confused:
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] lsguntu:
Is there any cab to disable the bars (top and bottom) :( ?? If so can anyone guide me??
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] puppetmaster22:
up

no program for remove the taskbar on wm6.5?
[Touch HD Themes and Apps] mughalgxt:
nueNoBar v2.0 works for me, with extra space useable. wm6.5 build 21882 (siemens lover v2.0 wwe)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] palexr:
Why am I getting the following?

I'm trying to run the 32B Hero (pure black) ROM Runme.bat and it is erroring because it is seeing multiple devices?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Roy_Drage:
At least yours see's some devices..... Mine won't recognise anything!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] netsuo:
Be sure you have the lastest USB Driver found in SDK's folder installed..
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Cheesebaron:
Well if you are playing with the emulator, more devices will show up. To select a specific device you have to run it with -s SERIALNUMBER like:

adb -s 123ASDQW111 shell
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] palexr:
dev kit USB driver is loaded.

Not aware that I am playing with the emulator? I'm not, at least I don't think I am?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] brumle80:
easiest way to resolve this is to issue two commands in the command prompt :)

adb kill-server

adb devices

this should restart the adb service and only show one device, at least this worked for me when I had this problem, good luck ;)
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] bboy_201:
thanks man that helped alot!!!!!!!

I was going to reflash my rom and start all over!!!!!!

[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] bottlefed1:
I tried searching but couldn't find an answer quite simply I'm looking for the best free gps/nav out there. It has to be free tho.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] Jessops:
free?

Google Maps - this is the only FREE software, though to use it you must be a subscriber of a data plan.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] mike99:
Google Amaze GPS. It is free and is pretty good, with spoken directions.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] wingmanjd:
Not entirely true. Google Maps is the best working "out of box" free navigation, but take a look at the navit thread.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] wingmanjd:
Do you need a data connection to use this?
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] rayrayinfla:
amaze gps is great. but you do need a data plan.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 8525Smart:
As far as I'm concerned, these are the three best GPS solutions (best is first):

1) Tomtom

2) AmazeGPS

3) Google Maps

And luckily, only Tomtom is priced. AmazeGPS is free and Google Maps will come with most phones by default.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] wingmanjd:
I swear I'm not navit's PR guy

I'm pretty sure that with a little work, navit could do the job just as nicely as TomTom. I just can't figure out the XML file config for the raphael. Once someone does that, I think it could easily replace anything else as primary usage.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] 8525Smart:
*Looks up Navit*

Er, sorry, but I disagree.

On the other hand, it does look somewhat better than AmazeGPS/Google Maps, so yeah, Navit would probably be better for someone who needs a free GPS solution. The idea of editing an XML file to change settings, however, seems kind of ridiculous, but the developers did say that it is early and usability has been put off to the side, so I guess it can't be helped.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] wingmanjd:
Meh...to each their own. I'm attempting to create a working XML file in that aforementioned forum thread, post #7.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] SilverStone641:
i run TomTom on my Touch Pro. Its fantastic! takes up just under 1gb on the memory card and runs flawlessly. It also looks brilliant on the TP screen. just gorgeous.

SideNote: On a side note, i highly recommend something NOT requiring an internet connection. I was recently road-tripping through Wyoming on the way to Montana, and my sprint connection was dodgy at best. google maps would have been worthless. TomTom worked like a champ

just my 2 cents. Cheers!
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] f.b.d:
i am trying to get ride of my at&t stuff on my htc touch pro because i am with fido and i am not able to get on the internet can someone help me to upgrade my htc.
[Touch Pro, Fuze Themes and Apps] viperius:
Flash it with a new Rom. I have a AT&T 3g Fuze on the fido network It works great just flash with a rom of your liking and upgrade the radio. the little glitch you might run into is the text messages time is off but there is a cab for that (still looking to where I found it).
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
I don't have an unlimited data plan, so I was quite frustrated to see that my G1 was consuming lots of megabytes in the background (also draining battery too fast).

To solve this problem, I wrote this iptables front-end to block undesired applications from accessing the network.

IMPORTANT: Root access required

Project home:

http://code.google.com/p/droidwall/

or

http://droidwall.googlecode.com/

Download from the Android Market:

After installing, press menu and click Help for an explanation on how to use it.

UPDATE: Latest version: 1.5.5 - You can check the changelog here.

I hope this will help other people.

[G1 Apps and Games] ubernicholi:
I'm sure a lot of seople will find this useful, however you should move you post to the games and programs forum. This is for rom delvelopment. Not trying to be rude, just a PSA before the mods move it.

On the top righthand side of you post you will see a triangle with a exclimation mark. Click it and ask a mod to move your thread to the appropriate forum.

If I ever have to drop my unlimetd plan I will be looking for a program like yours. Keep it updated and good luck
[G1 Apps and Games] Twister360:
I like the idea, I'm going to install it right now!
[G1 Apps and Games] g4m3rz:
nice idea.. might even increase some battery life by preventing apps from accessing the net behind your back :)
[G1 Apps and Games] smsrat84:
RIght on, gonna give it a shot, tired of my dead battery all the time
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Sorry for the wrong place, I have already requested it to be moved to a more appropriate forum.

Thanks.
[G1 Apps and Games] rgv151:
best ever project, I had the same idea with you, but currently I don't have much time to action.

Will folowing your project.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
A very nice first post. Welcome to xda. :D
[G1 Apps and Games] johnnylicious:
very nice can't wait to see more development from this.

hope i can save on my battery also lol
[G1 Apps and Games] shotad:
can I just download the apk file click and install instead of pushing through adb?
[G1 Apps and Games] senab:
Sounds like a great idea! Unfortunately I can't install this on Cyanogen's 3.6.8.1 :confused:

"Droid Wall could not be installed on this phone."
[G1 Apps and Games] r_dub:
Okay just a heads up you dont need adb to install this i can be done using package installer on the phone and its seems simple and easy to use I have the full data plan but im hoping it save my battery will definatley follow this for updates and keep you all updated on the battery life
[G1 Apps and Games] Deuces:
yeah.

im likin it, havnt had enough time to notice battery life, but having the say in what accesses the net, daddy like.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
I'm not sure why it won't install on Cyanogen. The only restriction for the application is android:minSdkVersion="3".

If anyone gimme a clue on this I'll surely modify it.
[G1 Apps and Games] Geniusdog254:
To the dev, if you don't have a market account I will gladly upload it using mine. Of course it would be as a free app (DUH! lol). I have an account that I don't use from buying my ADP1. Just mail me @ (email removed, author already mailed me) if you want it.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
That would be nice... I'm sending you an e-mail.

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] r_dub:
This does NOT work on hero it blocks all web based apps without selecting them including the browser LOL love the idea though
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Droid Wall is white-list based, so you have to select the applications that you want to unblock, not the ones you want to block.

E.g.: to allow only the browser to access the internet, mark it and the click on "Apply rules".

Please let me know if it works on Hero since I have no oportunity to test it.

Thanks.
[G1 Apps and Games] r_dub:
OH okay i will try this again thats going to be kinda Important you should put that on the OP and i will gladly test this on hero any way to save battery is great for me
[G1 Apps and Games] lbcoder:
You talk about this as blocking ONLY data on the cell networks and NOT on wifi.

I suggest that it would also be good to be able to configure blockages on the wifi network, e.g. for semi-untrusted apps -- i.e. ones that want to communicate with homebase even though they work fine without it or ones that want to load ads.
[G1 Apps and Games] bonanza123:
where to download those betas? like 1.4.0-dev

on googlecode the last compiled version is 1.3.7 :(
[G1 Apps and Games] mnjm9b:
if you search this thread you will find it...
[G1 Apps and Games] ePh432:
Hi mnjm9b,

Can you share where you found the "Owner" setting? Is it possible to compile just the IPTABLES / IPT_OWNER module without recompiling the whole kernel?

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] mnjm9b:
the owner setting is in menuconfig for compiling the kernel.

Networking>>>

Networking options>>>

Network packet filtering framework (Netfilter)>>>

Core netfilter configuration>>>

"owner" match support

as for your second question... I am not sure...
[G1 Apps and Games] jpzsports:
I have a Droid Eris on the PPC TnT 1200 plan (50mb data per month). I've been doing fine managing my data, usually having 3G off unless I need it and using Wi-Fi most of the time. But I just rooted and installed a custom ROM so now I have the ability to use DroidWall. I'm just wondering, what advantage would that give me?

How does it differ than just disabling 3G?

I suppose one advantage would be that I could have apps sync automatically now when using Wi-Fi (right now I have all programs that sync set to manual). But if I were to do this, would I need to change my Wi-Fi sleep settings because currently it's set to sleep after 15 min.

Any tips or advice would be great!

Thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] embrion:
DroidWall will allow you to select which apps can connect in WiFi and/or 3G connection. I for example hve set it to allow all apps to connet via WiFi but only apps I need to connect via 3G. Without DroidWall, when I would turn on data connection, ALL apps would like to synchronize their stuff etc generating traffic that cost me. With Droid Wall I can only allow email app and browser to connect/generate traffic. Yes, I additionally turn off data connection when not needed. Why? To save battery as DroidWall blobkcs connections, it's not it's role to turn off power hunger data connection 3G module.
[G1 Apps and Games] Se7enLC:
This app is great! Having this kind of control that makes Android awesome.

I have a suggestion for a feature if you're looking to improve - Profiles!

Here's how I see it looking. When you open the app, you see a list of profiles. If there are no profiles, it will say something like "press menu to create a profile". When you press menu, you'll see the option to create a new profile or edit existing profiles. When you click new or edit, it opens up the list of all apps and allows you to pick which to enable/disable as well as assign a name to the profile. When you save it, you go back to the list of profiles (which will now include a new one). If you just tap on a profile, it will apply it. When you add a widget, it could ask which profile it should enable/disable and have some icons to pick from.

I would use a feature like this so that I could have a minimal mode where only gmail and google voice get through to save battery, another where user-initiated apps like browser, email, facebook, etc, get through, but none of the automated ones, and another where all the apps are allowed except for particular "bad" apps that shouldn't be using data anyway.

Again, great app! I'm looking forward to a lot of battery savings using this.
[G1 Apps and Games] embrion:
You won't save any battery using this. Apps will keep trying to connect so will wake up data connection module. DroidWall will only tell them to buzz off so they won't consume data, that's all.
[G1 Apps and Games] highlandsun:
Just stumbled across this. Thank you, you've delivered what Google ought to have bundled in release 1.0.

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=1989

Now I don't have to worry about those ridiculous $800 data roaming bills the next time I fly to Europe any more.
[G1 Apps and Games] chris4chelsea:
i have the same problem! i m on cm6 rooted... pls help
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
I tested Droid Wall on both G1 (Dream) and N1 (Nexus One) with CM6. Everything seems to be working fine.

When you press "Show Rules" in the menu, are any iptable rules displayed?
[G1 Apps and Games] chris4chelsea:
i blocked skyfire as attached, but my skyfire is able to access internet still thru wifi... pls help, tks
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
I have just published version 1.4.0 on the project's website.

Download it here

Change log for this version:

Droid Wall v1.4.0 - September/06/2010

* IMPORTANT: If you have Droid Wall enabled and update to this version, please reboot your phone to flush old iptables rules. If you disable Droid Wall before updating, this is not necessary.

* Don't use system iptables anymore. An iptables binary is bundled with Droid Wall now.

* Show Rules now display detailed output (iptables -L -v).

* Avoid conflicts with other application that use iptables by defining a custom netfilter chain.

* Added widget to easily enable/disable the firewall from home (official now)

* Improved "reading installed applications" performance by caching the necessary data (only the first load after installing will still be slow).

* Fixed compatibility with many devices.

* Better compatibility with some "Superuser Permissions" versions.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Please check with the latest version (1.4.0). If it still don't work for you, please start an "adb shell" and type the following command:

iptables -L -v

Then send me the output of this command.
[G1 Apps and Games] chris4chelsea:
Hi Rodrigo,

tks for the quick reply, pls see attached.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
This is not good. The iptables binary shipped with Droid Wall 1.4.0 crashes on your phone.

What phone and ROM are you using?

If you could test another iptables binary for me, I would appreciate. The attached file "droidwall-dev.apk" is a development version with a different iptables binary.

Could you please test with that version?

Thank you
[G1 Apps and Games] chris4chelsea:
tks. i will try that tmw, i m using nexus one with CM6 installed
[G1 Apps and Games] finalista:
hello Rodrigo, I have the same problem as chris4chelsea with the new release (1.4) I tried the attached file (dev) and then it works again. I have a motorola milestone with 2.1 (0.36 stock rom), memhack, jit beta and some other tweaks. hope that helps you. btw thank you very much for your great tool.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
I just tested on a Nexus One with CM6. The "dev" version is working fine.

I will make a bugfix release (1.4.1) today, and this version will probably reach the Android Market too.

Thank you
[G1 Apps and Games] finalista:
Thank YOU for this fast service :)
[G1 Apps and Games] chris4chelsea:
Dear all, not sure if i have done anything wrong, but i have such error... pls help
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Okay, maybe someone with a better experience on compiling things for ARM can help me.

I tested many scenarios, none was successful:

1. Use the "iptables" binary from CM6-DS. Seems to work fine on old ARMv5 devices (such as G1). Fails with segfault on newer devices such as N1.

2. Use the "iptables" binary from CM6-N1. Seems to work fine only on newer devices, such as N1. Fails with segfault on older devices such as G1.

3. Use the "iptables" binary from the "android-wifi-tether" project. This binary seems to run on most devices without segfault - but since this version is too old, it fails to apply the rules anyway (this is the error reported above).

4. I tried to compile iptables v1.4.9.1 from source, using the Android NDK. After some tentatives I could compile the binary, but it segfaults on both G1 and N1.

I just need a good (new) iptables binary that runs on any ARM android device.

Thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] mnjm9b:
maybe you could include both n1 and g1 versions and then have the app detect what version to use depending on the device.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
That is an option, but I am afraid that some devices won't work with either versions. I just have a G1 and a N1 for testing. :(
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Can you guys test the attached version for me? I tested on G1 and N1, both with CM6.

This version includes two iptables binaries.

Thank you!
[G1 Apps and Games] finalista:
Hello Rodrigo,

i installed this version on my Milestone. Looks good :-) everything works as expected. no error messages. the only thing that could be strange is following text at the end of the window when pressing >show rules
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Good to know it is working on Milestone too.

Version 1.4.1 has been officially released and be downloaded here.

It should appear on Market within a few days too.
[G1 Apps and Games] chris4chelsea:
Rodrigo... U r the man! The dev version finally works on my nexus one. Thank u so much! Btw is the new 1.4.1dev same as the 1.4.1 on mkt?
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
I am not sure that the Market version has been updated yet. I still shows 1.3.8 on my market app.

I recommend downloading the official 1.4.1 version from the site. The signature for both the "dev" and official versions are the same, so you should be able to install it without any problem. Only the version on Market has a different signature.
[G1 Apps and Games] Devray:
This Version does not run under SGS. Version 1.3.7 worked, now downgrading does'nt work too. There are no Errors in this version. Hava you any idea?

It was so good all data was wiped with Titanium Backup

Thank you for help
[G1 Apps and Games] lou2s:
Just installed v1.41 on my stock N1 (rooted):

In blacklist mode I tried to block 3g/wifi for browser, but when I tested I can still browse webs.

Below are the errors I get:

Show Rule:

[: not found

[: not found

[: not found

[: not found

-L: not found

Enable Firewall/Apply Rules:

Error applying iptables rules.

Exit code: 1

[: not found

[: not found

[: not found

--version: not found

Does this only work with CM6?

Thanks!
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Do you get any error from the application? If so, please post the error messages here.

I don't think the stock N1 contains the necessary kernel modules to run DroidWall.

It should work on most alternative ROMs... not only CM6. If the ROM contains the necessary kernel features enabled, it will work ;)
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Version 1.4.1 is now available on the market.
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Sorry, I now understand these error messages. An issue has been opened for this problem:

http://code.google.com/p/droidwall/issues/detail?id=41

It will probably be fixed on the new version.
[G1 Apps and Games] lou2s:
Does it mean it will work on a rooted stock N1 as well? I'm really looking fwd to it!! Thx!
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Lets hope so ;)

Can you test the attached development version on your phone, please?

I cannot reproduce this error on my phone, so I need someone to test it for me.

Thanks
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Thanks for all the information. Yes - the problem is the iptables version. Droid Wall is failing to use the internal iptables binary because your ROM does not have some very basic shell commands available.

Those commands are so basic that without them it is quite hard to execute a simple "if" inside a shell script.

I completely changed the way that I am doing the binary detection. Can you please test the attached development version? thanks.
[G1 Apps and Games] lou2s:
Sure. 2nd test:

Black list mode selected.

1) No app selected.

[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Wow... both iptables binaries are crashing on your phone (Segmentation fault). Things are getting more complicated than I expected.

I'm out of clues for now! :confused:
[G1 Apps and Games] lou2s:
Thx for ur work... probably I should just install a custom ROM instead of troubling u... Thx ...
[G1 Apps and Games] rodrigo.zr:
Could you test another dev version for me please? Thanks!
