I have a lot of questions, and if we were to do it over this, and the person stayed with me for it, it might take four hours instead of a few minutes.

Watch the vids, ask in q&a, your question has probably been answered, and it wouldn't the this great series of tubes.....
Nvm
Please just start a new thread in q&a, title this one delete me. Your questions will get answers.

I'd rather just have some 1 on 1 help? I've had many people offer me assistance without making a huge deal out of my preference for direct interaction. I don't see why suddenly it is an issue between you two.

I have no issue at all with you wanting help, or even 1 on 1. Don't care, I help alot of people. My only issue was with you posting this in general. That's why I said please. Not a big deal, I just don't like seeing the general sub section get cluttered up with simple q&a threads.

and the installation of patched "endymion control center" apk from his thread's 2nd post ...
Why this app is requesting acces to "paid service" in android ? like sms and direct phone number calling ?
Can someone who can please post this question in Endymion Rom thread...

Thanks Philos
Well, if it's asking for it, it's because I forgot to remove them. There's nothing in Control Center needing those permissions, but as I started the app from an HTC template, it was probably there in the manifest and I forgot all about it.
The only permissions the Control Center actually needs (I think, I don't have the code here) are WRITE_SETTINGS to store some global stuff used by tweaks, and the one to access sdcard, which I don't remember the name. Next version I'll remove the unneeded permissions.
By the way, that question was a bit paranoid on your part. It's sort of ok to doubt something downloaded from market or other sources, but you have to trust the dev which built your rom. The reason is, anything I include in /system, with any permissions whatsoever, will be automatically accepted by the android package manager process. Apps can be made invisible to the app drawer with no effort at all, etc.
Bottom line: there would be many other ways to screw you over without actually asking you to install something and having you agree on it.
Cheers

Hello to everyone.
Many thanks for your deep involvement in getting an answer to my question.
I feel sorry about the emotions engendered by this question and I must say it now because I did'nt already as I more of a reader than a poster...
"Muito Obrigado" Lowveld for your amazing work that I use since the first hyperion..
I'm still "*****in" with my phone every WE since 4 month because I cannot decide wich one of your 3 roms to keep for daily use...
I'm not a devellopper no an IT guy, just a "geeky tech enthusiast" like many. Getting knowledge from what I read/see on the interweb.
True that a bit of "paranoid" thinking forwarded my question, but the answer is satisfying and understandable, as well as the approval of all users community..
Please keep up the good work !
(and please update Hyperion wich is still the best, battery-wise & big-fingers-wise !)
with Kind Regards ..

Hey,
Don't worry mate, really no harm done! It was just that I spend lots of time doing stuff for these roms, and maybe overreacted a bit.
Thing is, to a new user, asking for those permissions can really sound suspicious, so thanks for the heads up. But I do hope people that have been following my work for the last months think better of me...
Cheers

Time to bury the hatchet. It's all sorted out now.
Welcome to Endymion. If you stick around long enough, you'll find we're very decent folk out here at Endy... finish those darn 10 posts and head on over to the Endy thread. I'm sure you will have other questions to ask...

[IMPORTANT][INFORMATION]Da Rulez

Remember I am not a moderator. I am only here to help!
Hi all,
As you all know we have a very nice collection of ROMS here in this section of XDA. And I must say, I love it and I will continue testing ROMS and kernels.
It is amazing how this section has grown. And more ROMS and developers are comming here to share their work.
However, every single thread I see people asking:
ETA's
Battery life
Will this work, will that work
Can you please add.....
When will you update this ROM with this base etc..
These things are not on the right place here.
As you all know we also don't have an own Q&A and General subforum like the Samsung Galaxy S / S Advance. I do understand why you put these questions here. It's the I9001 subforum.. But these questions are not on the right place here.
So we made these threads ourselfs:
[Q&As][REQs][etc]Q&A, REQ, PLEASE POST HERE!
Samsung Galaxy S Plus I9001 General
Samsung Galaxy S Plus I9001 Q&A
Yes I know these threads are somewhat chaotic. But, these threads are for us and our beloved phone.
I think we need some basicrules in here. Remember one important thing THIS IS THE DEVELOPMENT SECTION OF THE SAMSUNG GALAXY S PLUS AKA ARIESVE AKA I9001.
Da rulez:
Read the XDA Rules: Link
Do not ask for ETA's (ETA stands for Estimated Time of Arrival)
Do not ask the developer to update the ROM with the newest base. If he/she has time it will be done. (it is not a must!!)
Do not ask the same thing in every thread (so if you ask something about a governor ask this in one kernel thread not in three)
Try before you ask. If you want to know something about a ROM read the thread, try and then ask.
Always read the instructions given bij the OP/Developer
Do not spam the thread. Trolling is funny I know but it has nothing to do with development. (WE NEED AN OFF TOPIC THREAD HERE :silly: )
If you have an important bug to report. Make a logcat.
Before posting anything, you must use the SEARCH button at the top of the webpage.
Respect each other. This is important. We all started as noobs as explaind here: Link
Use English when you are posting something here. If you are sending a private message to someone with the same language as you it's fine to use it. But post in English please.
If you are a new member here then please take a look here: Link
If you see something completly unfair/ against the rules / disrespectfull or whatever. Please use the report button it has an !
As a senior member of XDA I wish you good luck here. Happy flashing/modding/tweaking.
Cheers

I did. A while ago. I sent a message to Whisky01 and he said it will be discussed.. But I havent heard from him ever since.

AW: [IMPORTANT][INFORMATION]Da Rulez
In my opinion opening a topic for general things, will lead into a complete mess, because everyone wants to post questions to a different Rom or topic. So I would support these subforums i9000 users have for our phone.
Sent from my GT-I9001 using xda app-developers app

Okay, before we get any discussion I want to explain why I made this thread.
As we all know this community is huge, our section is getting bigger and bigger. New ROMS, Kernels and developers.
We also get new users who wants to help and got questions. For me as a newbie 7 months ago it was hard to get answers and solutions for my problems. I was hoping I got my 10 postcount as soon as possible so that I could participate in the development section. Back then I was very noob and was helping and answering where ever I could and that lead to problems and random posts/discussions. To prevent suchs issues I create this topic to get the basic rules of XDA easy explaind in one simple topic. I refer to the original rules and topics made by moderators and admins. But still, this thread is easy to read (at least I hope )
Another reason for this thread is this:
I see comments like this:
+1
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When will you update this ROM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Any news????
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When are you releasing a fix
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Etc etc.
These comments are annoying, and in particular the +1 comments.. I hate them, and they fill the topic for no reason.
I also want to prevent "problems". Problems like spamming and misunderstanding.
These rules are in no way against anything on XDA. If you as user got any problems with this topic or even me. Sent me a PM please.

Jup thats true.

Wrong threat

AW: [IMPORTANT][INFORMATION]Da Rulez
This is no discussion thread! These are the XDA rules, if you want to stay here, follow them, if you dont follow them, leave. Theres nothing to discuss about.
Also, we asked for a i9001 forum multiple times, i dont get why they dont do **** about that. Its annoying as hell everything is mixed with i9000 things. I saw a guy who flashed a i9001 kernel on his 9000 because he thought the 9001 kernel are the "new ones".
For gods sake even the GS Advance has his own forum....whats the matter?

So they can give moderator to any developer on this forum, ex. broodplank, or someone else. I think we can move threads at us own. Only baricade is ... we don't have forum...
I have an idea. It's a little annoyng but we all can report this post to mod's with reason ex. "We want to have forum for our phone, please, read that topic". But OP must insert info about that in 1st post. What do you think about that?

we need to vote for a new forum and show them the votes (just to say that we are a lot and we want it)

Guys guys guys, this.topic.of.us getting a new forum has been discussed many times in the past, all with the negative ans frm mods.
The mods may not want to start this again.

XDA Forums generally have bad organization and very bad moderation. They are here only to punish you...
I am and was mod/supermod on many Tech Forums in my country, the biggest has 300.000 members, and it's organization is 100 times better then this. I had hundreds of posts, and know how good forum work. A lot sub-forums for better member orientation, gentle and kind mods who always have advice for you how to be better, and not warnings...
That's why simple members treat them with respect and not with arogance...

To be honest, I dont see a moderator here very often. I believe (and this may be wrong) that they are only moderating the populair devices:
Samsung Galaxy SII/SIII HTC One X/X+ etc.. Our device is not so populair....
But please stop this discussion, this is not going to end..

[Q] OK I have rooted my tablet, now what?

I have rooted finally my Samsung galaxy Note 10.1 (8010) purely as I will be getting a new one shortly and wanted to see A) how easy it was to do and B) remove much of the bloatware so beloved by Samsung. I have installed Xposed and Gravity box.
Primarily I would like to remove the default clock from the lockscreen.
So it looks like this instead.
(seemingly I cannot post links yet.)
Is this possible?
Any other mod advice also welcome.

[OFF-TOPIC] The one and only S4 off-topic thread

Hello everyone,
There's a huge amount of off-topic posts even if not declared with "OT" around threads in this XDA section.
So, I thought it's best to give a dedicated place where to talk about everything, hopefully this will reduce OT posts around forums, making them a better place for us as there should be less junk while trying to find what we need.
Now with that said, this doesn't mean that there are no rules in this thread, all of XDA rules still apply.
Flaming and the belittling of other users (of any title) will not be tolerated and dealt with harshly by the moderating team.
This should be a fun place for us all, to have a chat and a general vent of frustrations.

Lol :silly:

Fair point fella, but what's wrong with people posting in the off topic forum?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/off-topic
The s4 forum is for device specific threads..

i got tired of all this roms backups and restore and lose data and wifi. once you instal a rom always there must be a weakness points even if tamirda's phoienx once you add (some) exposed moudles you will face system ui crash and reflash your rom. so in my opinion the official fw is better than custom.

maybe but I hate tw and it's far from perfect in my opinion
