I just want move some data games to external_sd card.

Maybe making a new partition on external sd and linking with sd internal as do the folder asec (on /mnt/asec/ ) that is /mnt/sdcard/external_sd/.android_secure

Hi,

I searched but couldn't find in this forum the answer of my question.

So, is an antivirus software necessary for Android? i can see a many of them on the market.But i don't want to install something that only "appears" do a lot of things but actually does nothing.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
i personally think antivirus is essential, you have it for your pc right ? why not for your phone ? especially since android is open source, its easy for someone to make a virus and pretend its an amazing app.. even so our phones have everything on them.. contacts. passwords, personal info. email messages, saved bank details. i highly recommend antivirus for your phone.

i use lookout mobile security, its free ( or 30day free trial for pro ) and it scans every new app installed, it updates regularly, and best of all, if you ever lose your phone or have it stolen. you can go on to mylookout.com and block the phone / wipe all data / even track it down thru gps (even if gps is disabled ) all via your pc. its well worth it..
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superuser_x:
Thanks for the reply !

Actually i was wondering if Android is linux based, it could not be affected by a virus.

What you are talking about is more of a malware/spyware related problem (like stealing passwords, CC numbers etc.).

But if a software can prevent that kind of stuff , its well worth it.

Just wanted to know does Lookout mobile security makes your SGS( I am Assuming) slow ?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] g00ndu:
You can try avg pretty fast.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] opica:
Sure it can be, the scale of viruses written for Linux is just smaller than is for Windows OS (imagine how many people use Windows), but since Android is growing at a really fast pace, I think that AV programs will be needed in the future if not now (at least for average users).
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JuWa:
Not, that I have noticed it. It's pretty light weight...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oswade:
I don't think so, not yet at least. Android is designed so that when you install apks or market apps, you are shown the permissions they require. This goes some way to helping you decide whether an app is trustworthy or not.

If in future, we get a spate of viruses/fake apps hitting android, then it might start becoming a standard feature. If you follow sites like xda or android websites daily, you will probably hear about any viruses before you even get the chance to download them (imo).

In the meantime, antivirus apps probably just reduce your battery life and performance...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kunjar:
No not at the moment. If your phone isnt rooted then apps wont have full access to system files, so in that sense i guess your protected to an extent.

If you only install apps from trusted sources then you should be fine. Perhaps over the coming months you may wish to implement a security solution as threats emerge more often.

Personally im awaiting a solution from ESET if ever. If it is somewhat similar to their desktop sloution but optimised for android then im hoping it will be just as light on resources. Avg just slows my phone right down. In any case im sure that you can expect a slight decline regarding phone performance with a security solution implemented.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
every one has their own opinion, personally i cant see what harm it can do having a antivirus, lookout for me doesnt slow down my phone at all, and its reassuring knowing that all my apps get scanned regularly, some think its easy to get a virus, some say different, least if you do have an anti virus, you know your covered just incase,,, plus the extra benefits of lookout are superior...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Superuser_x:
Hmm.. Appreciate you all replying :)

As for AVG , i never trusted it to be working(on PC).So i am going to lookout for something else... like Lookout :P

Seems it is still a debatable issue that is an antivirus really effective on android platform.May be some hardcore developer can answer it more clearly.

I see some paid Antivirus softwares on market, can't make out there worth.

So the question still remains the same....Is an antivirus necessary on android ? :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] azzledazzle:
well looks like you will have to make your own conclusion on that one... there are free anti viruses out there, so you cant go wrong

I tried several CM ROM's but didn't find internet pass through functionality in all of them (witch I tried). I know that internet pass through function not so popular but for me that is really great function in office without WI-FI and with very expensive EDGE from local providers.

Is that possible to add internet pass through function on Gingerbread (CM 7) or other CM ROM'S maybe like several application?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KevAmiga:
Hey all!

Have finally rooted my Desire and installed Ginger Villain on it.

Have played about quite a bit, and searched the forum but there are 2 things I cannot seem to work out with it.

Ok... 1 is that when connecting headphones with a Mic, (the only ones I have tried are the Monster Dre Dre Beats Control talk)... i can hear people but the volume / answer controls dont work and neither does the mic. When rolled back to the standard 2.2 rom on my desire, all works fine (the icon shows a headset with mic, etc and all controls work).

Also.. does anyone know if there are any plans to include a good full page calender widget? The Sense 2.2 one is awesome, showing a full day's agenda etc, but the smooth calendar, when installed doesnt give the widget option on the GV rom, but does on the 2.2 stock?

Currently running GINGERVillain 0.8.

Thanks!

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamranh3:
Isn't it possible with the Desire HD's specs to make a Windows 7 port? It's more than capable. But I've heard of issues with drivers but it was still ported to HD2? And before anyone asks why would I make my phone "worse" or whatever, I'd like to give it a go, it looks really nice :)

Also before anyone asks why don't I buy/why didn't I buy a Windows Phone, I'm 14, my parents wouldn't be too keen on buying me another phone.

EDIT: In the poll it should actually say: "Windows Phone 7 SHOULD be ported to the Desire HD, and you want it to happen."
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lewispb:
Id love to see this happen. It's not impossible to achieve, but is very very complex, especially regarding drivers etc. I don't think we will see this any time soon.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamranh3:
How long did it take to port to the HD2?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FricoRico:
I'd also love to see it happen. Maybe WP7 is worse than Android, but we can't be sure without us trying it out first. Also take in consideration that WP7 has been just released, maybe it's been out in the US for a longer time. But here in the Netherlands it doesn't even have a Dutch version nor a Market released.

Anyway, it's hard indeed, but not impossible. Especially not considering that the DHD is cracked open to the bone. I'm not expert but that would mean that it is possible in theory that the pro's can make it if they want.

I'm up for trying it, I love the style of WP7. Maybe not everything is as good as Android, but the same can be said for iOS vs Android. Everything has it's charms, WP7 has a great interface in my opinion. Android has a great mod-ability, making it possible for devs to make Android great, but the stock Android ain't nothing special. iOS has a great app-store, which makes it powerful, but other than that iOS has nothing special to offer us in comparisson to Android.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kamranh3:
Couldn't you install a Windows based bootloader then?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
you could in theory yes, but what you propose is illegal (windows is closed source) and if all your after is the look and feel of WP7 try designing a theme and then i'm sure you could corrupt some systems files to reduce the stability of android:D

I'm just wondering, - hypothetically of course - how would you go about changing the bootader to a windows based bootloader?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ghostofcain:
I suspect, hypothetically or not, that there would be a lot of work involved in someone producing a windows Bootloader to flash instead of our normal android one, I don't see any devs putting in the work for free to allow installation of a pirated OS, you want WP7 buy a WP7 phone

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ATownI20:
There aren't any, try asking this question in the theming section and somebody might be kind enough to help you out...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
Are you trying to build a rom or are you trying to theme an existing rom? if you are just trying to change the theme and arent doing any development work it will be much easier on you if you just learn how to make/edit a theme. In fact it can be relatively simple (though very very time consuming) to make your own basic theme.

To start with you will want to get your framework-res.apk file and you will want to decompile it. once you do this you will see several folders in the res folder you should see a drawable folder. this holds all your xml files. These are the actual "code" for a good part of the framework. you should see several other folders drawable-hdpi is the folder that will hold most of your images (in .png or .9.png) these can be replaced with the images you want (keep them same name and same format for .png

for .9 it is not suggested that you mess witht hem till you do research and learn how specifically to edit them

.once done recompile the framework-res.apk file and put it in your rom or into a flashable zip.

this will let you change a large portion of the framework theme of your phone. it takes a little practice and patients. Obviously there are many other things you an do that are much more difficult but this should get you started at least.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
DO NOT EDIT .9s IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW YET!!

Stick to regular pngs as a starting point.

When decompiling existing themes I have seen them throw errors left and right because of badly edited .9s. These errors won't allow the framework to recompile correctly.

Grab some themes you want to play with and pull the drawable-hdpi folders out of the apk then mix and match the images you want into the apk you are going to use.

Once you get an idea of which images change what in the system then you can start looking at editing .9s. When you get to that point you will see just how amazing it is that themes even work with badly compiled .9s.

I know first hand. I literally had to fix .9 pngs in an entire theme just to be able to edit the xmls myself and have it recompile.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] omegasun18:
very true i dont sugest editing .9s unless you know how. Most basic icon changes can be made without editing them however if you mess them up it can be a huge pain to get the theme going. Another tip always make a back up of your default untouched framework. this can help save you if you mess something up and need to replace the files.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lovethyEVO:
Another good suggestion.

To add to this, op you should learn to use adb.

It will save you ALOT of time when testing the icon changes.

Instead of having to make a flashable zip file, when you learn adb you can push the one file you are testing and if it bootloops your device guess what, just adb push the original back and your system will boot again.

This prevents you from having to nand restore everytime you boot loop your device.

At this point, the only thing I flash via zips are full roms (mine at least). Everything else I either adb push/pull or fastboot flash it.
