Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO

So, I'm currently on MiRaGe now and I love it so far.
But I just have to know,
How did Mr G get his lock screen slider icon to look how it does in his screenshot?
I love it... O_O

Done.

I agree. It was quite well done and helped me a lot!
Also, I have an issue that's a not hard to describe, so I'll try my best.
I messed up something when I accidentally was on app catalogs, and now I can't move or edit my apps at all.
I made a new catalog that has all my apps, and when I use that one, editing and moving apps works fine.
So, I'm stuck with 2 identical app catalogs because it won't let me delete the original one.
Help?

Oops I just realized that USB tethering is there under the tether settings. But, it doesnt seem to work on my vista 32bit or windows 7 32bit machines. I know you have to install a rndis driver for xp, but I read that vista/win7 are supposed to have it already? Anyone have any success doing USB tethering to vista or win7?

Hey MRG. I noticed the default launcher is still ADW.

Brotherswig's thread on VMroms found MookeOS's launcher.


Its based on ADW, but is so much faster and beautiful ?

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO

Question(s)
After updating mrg's ROM from 7/27 to most recent, was wondering if anyone has/had experienced the 'home" button not working properly?? It is "working", but cannot seem to use during browsing, return from an app, etc.
When flashed, I only used the "prep for update" zip and also formatted boot and data as stated.
Is there fault on my end in any way?
If so, please let me know.
I am also trying to keep jawzs' 101 kernal.
No link or way to do just the ROM update itself?
If not, then I proceeded to flash the jawz101 kernal AFTER the ROM flash is successful.....
Could there be a conflict somewhere in this?
*all is being restored via MyackupRoot if that helps anyone
Thanks!

Dialer attack vulnerability

I am a Republic Wireless beta community member and just saw a post over there that lists an URL to test for the dialer program being vulnerable to a USSD-based attack that triggers a phone reset by activating the reset function through a dialer string. I am still on the July 16th build so this may not apply to more recent releases. But if you go to dylanreeve.com/phone.php there is a script there that will test your dialer for the vulnerability by displaying your MEID in a dialog box (using the non-destructive *#06# IMEI code rather than the very damaging factory reset one). It displays my MEID so according to him that means that the default dialer program is vulnerable.

Just to be clear, both my Optimus V and my new Motorola XT557 display the vulnerability.

Is this already known to the devs?

There are apps available to block the attack. Look for TelStop (by @colimrm) and Auto-reset Blocker.

More info is available at: Remote USSD Attack - Prevention - dylan//posterous

Would installing a new launcher clear my catalogs??

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO

Idk about Catalogs in Mooke's launcher. I didn't check it, or I dont use it.

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO

Just thought I'd share:
GO Launcher+kovdev ICS theme+MiRaGe9/23 Build+Achep ICS theme+844MHz OC= BEST ROM EVER.
Awesome battery life, looks sweet, slick performance, totally stable, I can't complain.
Thanks to all devs everywhere for their hard work.

I may have just settled on this as my next ROM (tired of wrestling with GingerSnap). Figured since so many ROMs are based off this, might as well go to the source and build it from there.

You did lose me at Go Launcher though. I recently got rid of all my Go apps because the quality of all of them have gotten so bad. I recently installed Holo Launcher, and loving it!

I'll second Holo Launcher! I paid for the plus version and also run Holo Launcher HD on my Nexus 7. I've never heard of Mooke's before.

I will agree that the GO Apps aren't so great, but I just love the Launcher so much.
To each their own.
I can guarantee you won't regret MiRaGe, however!

Re: [ROM+Kernel] MiRaGe-CM7.2-IHO

Go Launcher is probably their best product, but it's still pretty hefty. Nonetheless, it's probably the best of the big launchers.

Go Dev's apps have really gone downhill. Too much bloat, self-promotion and resources hogging. Even Go Launcher installs shortcuts to their own app stores! Recently Go Dev has really taken a well-deserved beating in the Play Store reviews.

I did actually get Go Power Master to work effectively. After I uninstalled that and all the other Go apps and replaced them, my available RAM and battery life doubled!

Sorry for the Go rant. I used to like their apps and was really disappointed when greed and narcissism took control of that company and their apps started to really suck.

But yeah, even though Holo Launcher lacks many of the bells and whistles of Go, it does allow easy icon changing, even for folders. For themes, there's always the CM7 chooser.

Mokee Launcher - http://db.tt/bWmggcnD

Mokee Walls - http://db.tt/NORWnK1o


Push to System/app


The walls are REALLY nice as well

Might include them in my roms for now on.
