Have any of the recent custom ROMs for Infuse removed CarrierIQ?

Anything Hellraised should be OK.
Anything based on the AT&T leaks - beware.
I would think only stock (or mostly stock) AT&T ROM's would have CIQ. Ported I9000 ROM's, CM7/MIUI and Rogers ROM's are most likely clean.
Thanks. It's too bad I've preferred the ATT based ROMs so far.
when i saw the video on carrier iq i went through my phone trying to find evidence of it on my phone running cm7. it appears to be clean unless its running at some sort of linux level. not sure about what the phone is actually logging to internal/unshared logs though.
CM7 is ALWAYS CIQ-free.
The original Rogers UXKG3 release had CIQ but it was one of the first things gtg removed in Infused 2.x - Rogers CIQ was far less invasive than other CIQ implementations.
Froyo AT&T ROMs seem fine.
Gingerbread AT&T leaks for Infuse seem to be bad news.
I've been seeing people Hellraising what appear to be Captivate AT&T leaks - these could have CIQ.
For those wondering how to check if their ROM has CarrierIQ:

This is some good information. Thanks guys!
Fwiw, I just removed my Ciq and my handset seems snappier. Rooted stock froyo.

Oh, I thought Froyo didn't have it... I haven't run Froyo in so long I don't even remember...
Anyone know of a better way to remove it from the new gingerbread leaks?
My custom UCKJ4 rom tested positive for CIQ using TrevE's log testing app. Without hoping for much, I used the removal feature which results in a boot-loop.
I started picking at framework.jar and framework-res.apk to no avail. Specifically, I removed the folder com/CarrierIQ from framework.jar and removed the CarrierIQ calls and permissions from AndroidManifest.xml in framework-res.apk.
I might be having trouble maintaining correct syntax in the xml, but honestly I think it's a signing issue with the apk. I have tried copying the original META-INF folder into the root of the apk, I have tried signing the apk. I have tried isolating it to one file or the other, but each attempt results in an animation loop. In theming the framework, I have typically always had to copy the original AndroidManifest.xml along with the META-INF to maintain the signature.
I can provide logcat if anyone actually wants to look.
In recompiling framework.jar you have to make sure you copy the updated classes.dex file into the recompiled jar

Used this on my CM7 and it showed as clean. Just nice to have technical proof.

Thanks, I had forgotten about the signature of the .jar as well. However, I am confused by the language you have used. Isn't the updated classes.dex from my recompiled jar? Do you mean to put the resulting classes.dex into the stock deodexed framework.jar?
I appreciate your pointers.

I did too. It seems it works on Froyo but not on the AT&T Gingerbread leaks. I still haven't been able to get the CIQ removed without a significant amount of force closes, but I'll be trying again today.

This quote is from AdamOutler's Google+ regarding CIQ
Its fragments of code scattered across the entire kernel. Its compiled into the kernel and runs undetected as a root kit. The logging is so deeply integrated that by removing files which contain CIQ, your device would not boot. It would take weeks of programming to remove it, then you compile a new kernel and install it on your device... then your apps would start failing.... yep, its in your email, browser, and other parts... its called a root kit because it runs undetected and causes undesired activity.

So don't be surprised that it's not an easy fix.
More reason to use the awesome CM7 port!
Hi everyone. I've been reading around xda for quite a while and would first like to say thanks to all the great devs and others on here who have really helped to make the infuse an even better phone. Ok so this is my first post so I hope I have the right section. My question: is it possible to pull the sgs2 wallpaper pack from gtg's Infused rom? I've searched everywhere and can't find a wallpaper pack like it. I'm trying to complete my sgs2 look on my infuse with CM7 and wizmod2 theme. Thanks for any help!

Try searching for the wallpapers in the rom zip. Normal locations are the framework apk if its just one. Or a separate folder in the ROM if they are multiple.

Yes, but only selective apps. You may, but should be careful with the android build version. Some apps are compiled from sources, and those might not be compatible when taken from one ROM to another. But others, like add on apps, can be taken.

You can use tw4.5 which is a modded version for any phone but I've found it to be buggy. there is also a framework mod that can be done to get it all working. I'm actually gonna play with that tonight.

I think the tree structure within framework.jar is a bit different but it may still work, I still haven't tested it, I got distracted. you can use apk tool or smali to decompile it, baksmali or apk tool to compiled it.
I don't mess with apk manager because it tries to do to much for you and isn't really useful because the apps don't usually work when you are done, you wind up having to pull files from the Finnished apk and dropping them in a copy of the original because the signing doesn't work with system apps.
I have searched xda over and cannot find where to download a couple of apk files. I've seen people mention them in places but no where to download. So I have an idea floating around in my head and need two apks to see if I can make it work... needed are...
1. Stock touchwiz apk for android 2.3.5 that was on the skyrocket out of the box.
2. Gallery3d apk that also came stock on the 2.3.5 out of the box.
If anyone has these or knows where I can download them from either upload or send me a link.
If I can get my idea to work I will then post it and give some kudos to whoever helps with these files...

what im trying to do id get the issue with the wallpaper resizing fixed for those who dont want to install a custom rom. my idea is it worked fine on 2.3.5 so i just have to figure out what the difference is in the code and whether its a gallary problem or a touchwiz problem or a little of both. ive tried every launcher on the market so im hoping the problem is the gallary and i can take the apk from 2.3.5 and drop it in the system app root folder and it work. if that dont work ill have to start looking into the code and see if there is a difference. its all wrote in java so i know java from my computer programing days... but there has got to be a way to make it work....

Those apk's are stock, not deodexed. So if you are planning on dropping them in a custom rom, I think you will have to deodex them. Or I can upload the deodexed versions if you need them.

I'm running ucle2 and can't resize wallpaper other than cwm recovery and rooted and debloated I am stock. So do you think they need to be deodexed for stock ucle2? I'm not installing the touchwiz as a matter of fact I hope I don't need it but if I do it will just be to look at the code and see how it differs from ucle2 touchwiz if any at all. I'm hoping I can drop the apk and odex file in the root system app folder replacing the ucle2 with the 2.3.5 gallery and I'm hoping it run it and I can once again resize wallpaper and have ucle2. I like to have my cake and eat it too...

Kinda yea. Didn't know there was a forum for it already. My hope is that it will work without any changing code you know keep it simple until simple don't work... I noticed last night that both 2.3.5 and ucle2 both use the same touchwiz30 so maybe I'll get away with simple....

Well of course simple hasn't worked so now I'm about to check code.. oh what fun. When I drop the 2.3.5 apk in the system app folder it opens for a short few seconds and force closes. I've tried fix permissions and of course wiped cache and dalvick cache so its close to working but close just isn't good enough... but I have not gave up yet.

Erik's ROM should be pure Sammy ROM and S-voice must work there much better with all Sammy stuff.

??? Bill's PACman is still available, it's just not advertised. I thought the reason was just because it's in fairly experimental stages right now. At any rate, the PA thing is being blown way out of proportion. I posted about this on the MIUI thread.
FWW PACman is an excellent ROM. I highly recommend it!
Th3Bill removed the closed source file (Paranoid Android Settings).
You can get his build here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pacinfuse/
FYI- It boots to a black screen (no bootanimation) and there is a HWA settings f/c.... no biggie.

And just to add to that, as far as I understand the PA settings can be obtained by downloading a PA ROM, pulling the PA settings (apk?) and installing.
As for bootanimation, I used RomToolbox Pro to grab one. I'm sure there are other ways too.
