It is of course but that doesn't mean that someone would harm his/hers reputation here in the community by doing such a thing! If you are afraid then don't use custom roms!

I caught man flu once. i remember flashing a rom, answering a call, putting the phone to my ear. Next thing you know i was having cold sweats
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DocRambone:
I noticed you q in the doc_kalpik rom thread. The reasons for the keyboard fixes is that some apk's wont allow so high compression as others. Swype included.

And i need time to time to fix the errors as bugfixes

You can easily compare the apk's against the leaked rom so no need to try to put in any bad hints about rootkits etc.

Sorry, no hint was intended specifically to your rom, that's why I started a different thread to ask about it in a more general way. It was just a question which struck me lately. Thanks for the explanation and for all your efforts, I've been using your roms and they are good work.

Bad people dont buy expensive phones :D

Nah, i think this is mainly paranoia, and what would the virus do anyway :O Delete ur data? Steal info?? Pshhh.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vasra:
There are 2 concerns here, both of them legit, but one difficult to protect against (and somewhat unlikely).

1) ROM chef installs a rootkit/malicious piece of code. No amount of scanning or MD5 hashes will help. The only solution is to cook your own ROM from trusted source files AND scan the source code yourself.

2) A person distributing/offering DL link to a cooked ROM adds an additional piece of malicious code to the rom. ROM chefs can offer protection against this by distributinh their orig roms with MD5 hash, against which users can compare other DLs.

I'm personally more worried about free software from various countries that I can DL off the Android Marketplace. There are already password harvesting apps there and the number is likely to continue.

Against this, there's no protection, unless somebody compiles TaintDroid and/or a better firewall into Android (DroidWall is not enough).

As for the motivation to do malicious code injection, plenty exist already (password harvesting, credit card info, bank connection interception, bot-net, telephony based billing, etc).

It will only get worse as time goes by, trust me.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shrooms90:
First of all its not just paranoid to think about that, cause ive caught myself a trojan on my sgs (not with a custom rom). But i dont think about getting any virus or trojan when i flash a custom rom.

And well why would anyone be interested in putting a trojan to ur android phone? Its quite simple... Many people buy apps from the android store. To pay for em they type in their credit card information, witch will be sent to the guy who programmed the trojan.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EarlZ:
I think he is concered about a clean ROM and somebody repacks that rom and posts is as somebody elses rom
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sztupy:
And you can't even circumvent this by putting up the sources and let people compile+compare them. Even if you give people the complete toolchain from start to end there will be differences in size and data of some compiled applications.

So in theory although I put up the sources of ULTK noone can actually test for 100% whether the image I put up is actually the same without any kinds of backdoors/trojans and such. And yes I did put a trojan in the compiled ULTK, just for fun... no, was only kidding
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rrva:
You're right. But, a lot of what is on a ROM is a compilation of known good files copied from official/leaked roms. So, some checksumming would at least narrow down the search to what is different in a specific rom.

[XPERIA X10 General] infyenyte:
I bought a x10 which was locked on orange. i unlocked it and debranded to a generic firmware. Every sim works in the phone except for o2 sims. I tried emailing them to see what the problem was and they are saying it's my phone. I've tried a few o2 sims same problem. Tried the sims in other phones and they've worked. It is something to do with the phone not registering on the network. Could this be due to me debranding in which case does anyone have access to orange firmware files. Has anyone else experienced this problem?
[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
What method did you use?

Have a look at THIS post.
[XPERIA X10 General] infyenyte:

[XPERIA X10 General] SXUsr:
The xploid is for rooting, not debranding or unlocking.

What exactly does the partition command in recovery mode do?:confused:

Edit: Disregard. Was trying to discern whether it partioned the whole internal card or just the portion the system uses. Appears it partitions/wipes the entire card.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amd_203:
Sounds like a hardware issue. Did you try the re-partition option in Odin?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millerliteguy:
No didn't try that. One how do I do that?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amd_203:
You should see it on the left side of Odin. Next to 2 other check boxes. It'll re-partition your internal SD card. Worth a try but not guaranteed to work.

Well I repartioned the phone but forgot to select the .tar file I only used the PIT file..

It said passed but now the phone doesn't power on or anything, I can't even get it back into download to flash the rar

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amd_203:
How'd you forget the .tar file? That's the whole rom itself. Try turning off your Vibrant, take out the battery, and unplug the USB. Leave the phone alone for 30 seconds and then put the USB back in. Now hold both the volume buttons and continue to hold while putting the battery back in. If all goes well it should go back into download mode.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] millerliteguy:
Got it..Thanks

The main screen worked for about 1min

Now only the 4 buttons on the bottom of the phone are working

This is making me crazy
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amd_203:
I know what your problem is. Its fixable. My tutorial may be vague and you'll have to look for the things I mention since I'm on my phone.

Search for Eugene's froyo that doesn't brick rom. It's a rom that can be used with Odin.

Get the stock JFD rom.

Now load the 513 pit and the froyo .tar.

Do not select re-partition.

Put your phone in download mode and press start on Odin.

It'll finish and give you an error. That's fine.

Pull the battery and USB. Wait 30 seconds again and then put the USB back, hold volume buttons while putting the battery back.

Now load the 512 pit and the JFD .tar and now select re-partition.

Press start on Odin and it'll do its things.

You should be good to go. Let me know how it goes.

[Vibrant General] ensonnosne:
If you've reflashed and it didn't fix the problem, and nothing damaged the phone over night, then its probably more than a simple loose connection issue.

May have to get a warranty replacement.

Nothing damaged the phone..I was rooted with the stock Rom running OneClickLagFix from the market..

This morning the touchscreen stoppen working, was able to reflash back to stock using Odin..And touchscreen still not working..

[Vibrant General] kangxi:
You sure nothing happened to the phone? That seems very strange. Are you using a screen protector? Download any weird apps? Kinda scary that the screen would just fail. You didn't do much to the phone as fast as mods go while some people do crazy stuff.

I'm having touch problems too. It takes me multiple tries to unlock the phone. I thought it was just the cooler weather.
[Vibrant General] ensonnosne:
I had this issue with after market chargers. Was yours having problems with it as well?
[Vibrant General] N8ter:
Ever thought perhaps that had something to do with the issue (i.e. trying to OC it messed the phone up and eventually the digitizer failed)?

Only asking because some people think "oh it froze, but it booted back up fine. All is well."

It's like being surprised you have Lung Cancer because you quit smoking last year, but smoked for 30 years before quitting...

Also, using some after-market car chargers can kill you touchscreen. I've had that happen before.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] Babis_ECE:
Hi everyone, I have a Milestone with the Leak 2.2 Froyo ROM from GOT, and I have it overclocked @ 1GHz. I thought it could play flawlessly 720p .mkv video files , but no matter what video player I've used, none of them can play the video without "freezes".. RockPlayer is really "close" to achieve it, but it the video loses frames.. Sound and subtitles are played perfect though.

Is it possible to play 720p on Droid/Milestone, has anyone of you done it already?

All my videos are in .mkv form, and the Series I am watching come out in 720p versions. It would be really nice if I could watch them on Milestone without having to transcode them.

Thank you very much for your time.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] applebook:
For what's it worth, I could never get the Galaxy S (several iterations) to run 720p MKV files without crashing/freezing after 30 seconds or so. Everything seems smooth, and then, the videos just freeze.

They were standard 720p TV shows that you download from Usenet.

Incidentally, my iPhone 4 played 720p MOV files without any problems.

I suspect that the Milestone/Droid is capable of running the films smoothly after overclock.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone General] jlove:
is there a player that can now play 720p on milestone?

[Touch HD General] lumisab:
Hi

What you can do is a hard reset: open up the backcover from you phone you will see underneath the SDCard a red hole that is the reset-button at first you have to press the VOLUME UP AND DOWN BUTTEN at the same time than press the reset-button with a pensil or similar I know it is very awkward you need a lots finger you can also press the power button,be patient, ok normally after the phone starts you will see a 3 COLORED SCREEN wen you see the screen stop pressing the volume button the screen will tell you what you have to do,to erase all you settings and you will be back to your previous ROM setting.

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DixieNormus:
I edit the png files in the zip. Change the zip back to apk.

c:\>android\tools\adb push c:\framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk

360 kb/s (4756622 bytes in 12.879s)

so no errors. shows just as successful as pulling the file

upon reboot, none of my changes appear.

If the permissions were incorrect, wouldn't i get an error specifying so?

How would i allow the system framework-res.apk to have the correct perms?

I even did this over again just incase i forgot something. Making sure the files were infact changed and stored back into the apk.

Just changing the battery and bottom of pulldown menu.

Any ideas?

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] WarByte:
Just my thoughts on this, maybe it helps you:

1. You could have changed the wrong png. Change something that you recognize to make sure it isnt that. I don't know how likely that is but the .apk I've messed with had some unused .png's.

2. The first time I ever messed with one I had a problem with it not reflecting my changes in text color. After a long time of frustration I zipaligned to go back to my previous .apk then it showed the changes.

3. Zipalign... unless you do so, you'll have a big performance hit by having Android extract everything form the .apk (and the framework-res is a relatively big one) as it is not optimized. It could also, as in my case be the answer to your problem.
[Android Software Development] Vyath:
Hi,

I'm working on a media player app that uses the MediaPlayer class. On the N1 all is good, however, on the T-Mobile G2 when nothing is plugged, sound comes out of the speaker, and when you plug in headphones the sound automatically comes out of the handset (and not the headphones).

With other apps (stock media player) this doesn't happen (IE sounds gets diverted to headphones correctly), only with my app so I get the feeling it's something to do with a property I didn't set or something.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[General Questions and Answers] Chokey:
Hai people,

Im new here and i got a problem with my HTC Hero. Ive got it rooted to FroydVillain through this site and it worked fine for quite a while. But since thursday my phone flipped.

My trackball keeps lighted on, whatever i do. My battery runs low in like 6 hours...normally i did a whole day with it.

When i plug the usb cable it doesnt connect to my computer, it only starts powering up the battery. If its connected with my usb cable and i remove the battery the trackball starts flickering instead off burning all the time.

I didnt know what was going on, so i tried to do a nand restore in the root menu. After that i still had problems with the trackball and it still doesnt connect to my pc. Then i tried a factory reset in the root menu, but the problems are still there.

It doesnt let me get into the mobile network settings either. It doesnt find my provider and cant change it, so at the moment my whole phone is useless :(

Im quite new with this whole rooting thing, so i might have messed it up now? I hope some people know a solution for this. Please dont throw to geeky stuff to me, because i might not understand it ;)

My software settings are this according to the phone:

Firmwareversion: 2.1 update1

Smallbandversion: 63.18.55.06PU_6.35.15.11

Kernel-version: 2.6.29-063c4d24 htc-kernel(at)and18-2 #1

[Galaxy S I9000 General] yuval27:
Hi,

I have a strange problem when I try to connect my device to the PC.

After I installed Kies for the first time, the PC recognized my device one time. After I had removed the USB connection, when I try to reconnect the device, the PC did not recognize it.

I tried to reinstall Kies, install drivers without the Kies, I rebooted my PC everytime - nothing worked, it still did not recognized.

The only thing that work is a System Restore which I did on my PC (for before I installed Kies for the first time), but then I got the same problem - for the first time I connected my device after the Kies installation, the PC recognized my device, but after I unplugged and reconncted the USB cabel, the PC did not recognize my device, again.

Meanwhile, my System Checkpoints on my PC where deleted (I guess because of the System Restore), so now I can not go back to square one again.

I tried to find identical problem in the forum, but I did not find one.

My operating system on my PC is Windows XP, 32bit (I do not have access to another operating system, surely not on a daily basis. If it is necessary, I will try to find a computer with another operating system).

The Kies version which I installed is 1.5.3, the most updated as of 31/10/2010, downloaded from the official Samsung website.

I do NOT use LauncherPro, or any other launchers for that matter (I only installed a few popular games, from the market, on my device).

Thank you!

Yuval.

Try removing any media which might be there on your internal sd card. If that doesn't work then try and format the internal sd card. Certain apps like winamp too prevent the phone from connecting to the pc. It sure did work for me. Hope it does for you too.
