What software security is available/recommended for the Windows Mobile devices like the Touch HD.
The built in password jobbie is naff.. I would like something that once password protected is hard wired into the system so that even if lost and found, no amount of hard resetting will bypass it without a complete ROM update..
At the moment, once set, I can still switch backon and "sometimes" it will ask for the password but if I ignore it, it will stay take me to the last app that was running before it hybernated... cheers.
Best I'm aware of is Sprite Terminator.
Thank you for that, do you know if there any facilities on that product that also work in a day to day basis.. that is something better than what is on the phone for locking down the phone when you are not using it but will fire back up upon passowrd entry.. something better than what the phone has already.. cheers..
Terminator does not. Absent info from someone else here, I think you just need to run a search for what you're looking for. For example, see http://www.freewareppc.com/utilities/utilities_security.shtml
No and ifs or buts, and I want eclipse working on it.
I want my f%^&ing computer where ever I go, on which ever computer I choose.
I dont want to have to have to f around with any settings like how i have to enable the usb drive on my phone to get into the file system. I want it automatic.
And you better give me a damn android card with some sort of RFID to put into my wallet as well as an android key, because I constantly am miss placing my wallet my keys or my phone and Im gonna need some sort of settings for this.
OH and that stupid android washer thing, f that, what I really need is an android stove, one that'll turn off its burners for me when I set it to or one that I can turn off when im on the crapper, or that can tell me how soon my wife will have the food ready when Im driving home from work. I want to be able to see whats cooking before I even call her.
I'm wayyy more concerned with seeing whats cooking then being able to see anyones face
First off i live in New Zealand and i imported the captivate because i preferred it over the standard galaxy s phone we have over here.
Since i received it however i have noticed a few software issues which i am needing help with or wondering if theres a stock GT-i9000 rom?
The issues are as follows:
No Swype keyboard, came with 'Chinese keyboard'. i have sinced installed a keyboard form the marketplace
No Accelerometr/gyro. When trying to access game or apps that require it they say it cannot be detected. furthurmore i cannot put the phone into landscape mode when sending an SMS for example to flip the keyboard
The ambient light sensor and the proximity sensor are same as above, they either do not work or arent detected
The phone cannot connect to Kies or any computer in general. It worked once where i could access the external SD card through my computer, but when trying to get it to connect to any computer simply nothing happens, even when windows says its succesfully installed drivers it cannot find it.
As you can see thats alot of issues. It also crashes when i try to access 'mobile AP' in the settings menu. The phone came rooted without any samsung apps, widgets, wallpapers or anything else that it should have. There is also a app called 'superuser permission' which i believe is related to it being rooted?
So what i'm thinking the most logical choice is to somehow install android again, but with a fully functioning OS (e.g. accelerometer, swype etc). im not looking for anything fancy, preferably just stock andorid 2.1.
Since i cannot properly connect to a computer how would i backup all my data on it? And since its being used in New zealand, not america (its been unlocked) will doing this unlock it?
im sort of a noob at all this and haven't had any help from anyone yet.
P.S sorry if ive got spelling mistakes and what not, i wrote this in a rush before bed
Thanks,

I don't have the technical knowledge to help you that much with your inquiry.
It seems like your phone has a lot of problems with one you just imported. Are you sure that the place you got the phone from is reliable?
Hi all,
have been having major trouble with my HTC desire HD, a while back it started launching Google Navigation of its own accord and now does it so frequently my phone is as good as a paperweight,
It normally pops up and starts by saying I need to go to settings to turn on my GPS to allow Google Navigation to work, thing is I dont want it working, I didnt open it
I tried leaving on the GPS to see if it would leave me alone then, but it doesnt it keeps launching telling me to buy a license to use Google Navigation
I saw a thread online about deleting the maps and data that Google Navigation uses from the phone when connected to computer via usb, tried that, it still launches itself, instead telling me I need to download the maps that I just deleted. Have since let it redownload the maps, left GPS on, said yes to everything it asked and it still wont leave me alone.
Whenever it launches it shuts down whatever I was doing which is infuriating, and now does it every 30 seconds or so, even when the phone is locked it lights up showing the lock screen because that app has started itself again
I will do anything to be able to delete this app and get my phone back
Do I need to root it? Will that let me get rid of this #bleeping bleeper#? I have never rooted a phone and am not sure about how to do it or whether I need to downgrade my software, or how to do that. Hence the plea
I have read the thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1377119
and was going to give the Advance Ace Hack Kit a go (will it let me delete Google navigation if I do this?) but was unsure if it would work on my phones software and I dont know how to downgrade
My phone (HTC Desire HD) is running:
Android version: 2.3.5
HTC sense version: 3.0
Software number: 3.12.61.5
Kernel Version
2.6.35.10-g931a37e

Not sure if those details are relevant to helping me but just in case
Any help would be much appreciated!!!

I have the same problem as you describe. The only difference is that I have my DHD rooted and it happens on both gingerbread based roms as well as ICS Roms. I Tried to get rid of it by formatting the sd card and doing the superwipe script and reinstalling different roms. Everytime it happens again. I have no idea how to get rid of this. It is as if it was a Virus but i really doubt it since i formatted my phone as far as I know, unless it can be somewhere where superwipe doesn't clean.
If any1 have solution for this please share.
To solve your problem

Yes you will need to root your phone, no need for other rom. Check on HTC website how to unlock your boot loader and then on XDA forums of how to root your phone. Once that is done go to andoid market and download "AnTek app manager". Using that android app you will be be able to freeze Google navigation without having to uninstall. It won't even show up any where on your phone except in AnTek app manager under frozen tab. I did this with all HTC unwanted apps.
I have been using galaxy devices after my iPhone got hacked and it was a relief since then but till now only. The threat i am going to put forth is very complicated yet true and it exists in both of my galaxy devices i.e Samsung Galaxy S8+ (Snapdragon) as well as Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (Snapdragon).
THE PROBLEM:
My both Samsung phones are remotely accessed by someone. Everything i do on screen is being monitored by someone as well as the camera and microphone are being controlled. I know this because my earlier phones(Apple iPhone 6 and VivoY91c) used to be hacked and the hacker would tell me everything i do on screen, every person i chat with, every site i visit, everything that i do on my phone was being monitored. And now same is the case with Samsung. Nothing is private. I even tried to install an app called "screensings" but it was also bypassed very soon.
THE SYMPTOMS:
Strangely, I do not have any symptoms like battery drain, ads, unknown apps or anything of that nature. My phone location changes to "Redkino, Russia" it seems to me by all aspects that I am in Russia. my weather, the ads on Youtube, the people nearby me in apps, friend suggestions on facebook and snapchat. It feels like this phone is physically in Russia. From weather to apps to everything. Even if i see things for sale of OLX it shows Russian items.
THE PROCESS:
As far as I noticed this happens through any app that runs on one device at a time i.e KIK , What's app, Snapchat, Say HI, etc NOT through apps like facebook or twitter or instagram that can run at more than a device at a time. The experts can relate later what it means may be at the end of reading this narrative. Every phone i change , my whats app number remains the same and as soon as i install whats app in new phone or SayHi or Snapchat ID. As soon as i activate my account within an hour or two my phone gets to Russia. As i searched the hacker attaches some trojan through these apps that can be used in device at a time and that trojan drops payloads. The payload gets root access and after that my phone is being monitored and controlled.
MY EFFORTS:
I started with a normal restart. Did not work. I factory reset my phone. It did not work. I flashed the firmware with new custom rom. Didn't work for me. I finally managed to extract the PIT file of my stock firmware and RE-PARTIONED and NAND ERASED my phone and then installed new firmware. IT WORKED. Which indicated that the malware had reached to system partition. (WHCIH IS WHY I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT) my phone was back to normal i used it for long like months and then one day again i had the same issue. So i did the same i re-partioned and NAND earsed my phone. But now it will NOT work any longer. I do not know where is the malware hiding itself now. ? Do i have to change the board of my phone to get rid of it or do i have to change my device? i even flashed verizon firmware on my sprint phone so that may be it will kill the malware but it also did not work. Soon after new firmware my phone is ok as long as it is not connceted to internet / WIFI as soon as its connected it gets to Russian like within 5-8 hrs (after firmware flashing). 5-10 mins after(After factory reset) . I have to change both of my devices for now. But i Hope and pray that Samsung fixes it soon. Something is getting into the read only system and then after its gotten there Samsung's owns security system is protecting it from deletion.
ATTACHMENTS:
My attachments show clearly that i am at KDA KOHAT PK and REDKINO RUSSIA at the same time which is not possible. I even get the location of Russia house where my samsung devices are being monitored or cloned. This is the only sign or symptom but the problem is there for sure as i the whoever the hacker is selling my info is after me and everything i do on my phone is reaching him as it is as if she is watching me right from behind my shoulder. Please look into the matter and find out where lies the vulnerability from where a malware can access phone through an app over wifi and hides in system partition that is immue to factroy reset and afterwards some place where its immue to even flasing firmware NAND erase and re-parition.
I think it would have occurred to you after having both an Apple and an Android hacked that the problem is most likely you.
Or perhaps you have Dr No's grandson for a mortal enemy.
A social butterfly with all kinds of messaging apps running (none that I leave run on my phone), what could go wrong?
More than likely it's something you downloaded or loaded...
If the OS you flashed is earlier then Pie it's vulnerable to that type of attack.
A custom rom... built by who?
Here's the kicker; did the malware(s) slip by you onto all your data backups?

Ditch the social apps... for starters.
People use to meet in the streets; the streets are fields that never die.
