Android 4.4 updates its SELinux configuration from "permissive" to "enforcing"

Android 4.4 updates its SELinux configuration from "permissive" to "enforcing"
And now?
Let's talk...

So what? I'm on 4.3.1 and I have it set to Enforcing. I really don't see what your point is.

Cool, finally a custom lollipop rom for our device..and it's not for the wifi variant, darn xD..But, I have to ask, I know this is PURE AOSP, but, what would be the advantages of using this ROM vs stock rooted lollipop w/ nvidia's binaries?

If I have time, I'll give this a shot tomorrow!

I don't want to be a jerk or nothing, but maybe I misread something. Is this not an entire ROM? The file is only 155 mb

ASOP roms are only this size. You need to add GAPPS later.

This is running well. Only issue I see is lack of a camera. Drivers missing I suppose. Very stable, daily driver for sure! Thanks !

WiFi doesn't connect automatically, you have to go into settings and click connect.

Installed and running good so far. Like pjim, I also noticed that the camera's are inop. Another thing I noticed is that I'm unable to mount my 64GB NTFS formated uSDCard. I checked the fstab files and the /storage/sdcard1 entries have vfat as the partition type. I tried editing them manually and rebooting, but I'm not having any luck so far.

the fstab is on the initramfs, it will always get reset on reboot. if you want your changes to persist, you need to unpack the boot.img, make the changes, repack and flash

That explains everything. lemme see if I can figure this out. Thanks for the tip

I also own the 32GB version but I live in Europe (Germany). I don't use LTE at all so will it run on my tablet?

The advantage is that it's clean, there are no proprietary apps or services.

This ROM is built against the LTE US (wx_na_do) board, not wx_na_wf. That means wx_na_wf is not supported.

How Do I Root Samsung S7 from Tmobile USA?

Whats the best way to root a Galaxy J7 from tmobile USA, model SM-J700T?

I thought I would have this j7 rooted already myself.
Ran into fastboot issues like in the V10 forums after mm update. Seems fastboot oem unlock is disabled yet you can click to unlock in developers? Kinda of pisses me off about that. Everyone blamed LG for that but now I see a 2nd T-Mobile phone with same issue.

According to that post, you can with the F variant CF- Auto Root but there's no recovery at the moment. Well, no twrp anyway.

Yeah the J7 is good for the price without all the bells and whistles. I am seriously thinking of returning it for a refund and getting a Note 5.

I can understand that. I didn't get a note partly because since i want to remove as much samsung software as possible, it makes the s-pen almost unusable therefore a waste of the extra money. Also, i am little impressed with this device for the money. Had it been only 1-1 1/2 gig of ram like the other models I'd pass on it.

The only reason I"m returning this phone is because it lacks an LED notification light. If it had it I would really keep it.

Cyanogenmod on Galaxy S7

Hi guys. I have bought a Galaxy S7 2-3 months ago. I am still on stock rom,also never rooted on s7. Is there someone out there interested in building CM for S7? I saw that someone has built cm for s7 edge and booted it,so it is possible. Thanks to everyone who will answer

If you can build for yourself I already have the source on my github for the flat S7 https://github.com/JapRainGoggles

You need to make an edit to the kernels arm64 config before it will compile but when you try the make error will tell you where the file is if you don't know

Yeh,well I know that building CM for Exynos is hard,but they have done it in the past. Look at Galaxy S3. I had an i9300 and it still works with CM

Not impossible... I've done it before on Exynos devices and fixed everything for AOKP on OnePlus2 (got it to official) but that was a SD SoC

The only thing stopping us from getting a stable CM build for the S7 is everyone saying it can't be done which it can it just take a bit more time then other devices

Ya i kinda like touchwiz(stupid name i know), can you imagine an aosp camera on the s7? That'll be a cluster**** of a mess, no instant focus, no sdcard support, no nothing, just a featureless app. Try the google camera and you'll see what i mean, takes 1 second to take a pic.

Storage Space

I'm giving the Pixel 3a serious thought. I'm wondering about the available storage. Can someone tell me how storage space is available on first boot, before installing anything?

1.1gb is taken for system.
15gb is taken for system apps.
However everyone believes this is an error and should say 16gb for system instead of apps.

Just noticed its been corrected in the update. Now says 11gb for system.

available storage space is 50gb, on both P and Q.

After I have installed all my personal apps I use I have 42 GB of free space left. Together with cloud space it is more than enough for me.

Thanks for the answers. Looks like I'll be headed to Bestbuy soon.
