General :: CyanogenMod 10 Lacks App Permissions Management
Aug 31, 2012
I read that CM10 does not have the feature that made CM7 really stand above all other roms. App permissions management. If this is true, I'd like to know why such a terrific feature was not brought over to the newer versions. I really liked that I could take away the ability for apps to "automatically start at boot."
Is there something built in to ICS / JB that negates the need for this feature to be in CyanogenMod?

The permissions say that you must agree to allow them to delete files from your storage including your SD card; must agree to allow them to extract any information from your phone, etc. In other words they can do any thing they want with your phone and the data in it.
Is there any way to not grant these permissions and still get updates?

I currently have a personal (HTC Touch Pro) and business phone (iPhone). With Sprint now offering unlimited any-mobile (freeing up 1300+ minutes a month on my family plan) and Google Voice allowing me to get a separate business number, I'm thinking about dropping my iPhone, and replacing the HTC with either a BlackBerry Tour or a Hero. I work in project management; I know that the BB does have applications that would be useful to me (as does the iPhone), but I can't find comparable apps for Android. As a personal phone though, I would rather have the Hero. Given that I've only been able to spend a limited amount of time browsing the Android Market in a Sprint store, I was hoping someone here might know of some good replacements for my "must have" apps.
1) PIM / Task management. I have a lot of tasks, meetings, and deadlines to manage. I need something similar to the functionality provided by Outlook. I currently use Pocket Informant on the iPhone, which allows me to view multiple calandars, see my schedule from the month-level view, and integrate my to-do lists. I can also assign calander events and to-do tasks to projects, give them priority, provide extra notes, add multiple reminders, etc.. I could probably live with the Android's calander, but I definately need a good to-do app.
2) Time tracking. I have an app on the iPhone (TimeLogger) that lets me track how much time I spend on projects for clients. The one I currently use allows me to start a timer and then come back later to stop it, which is helpful but not a must.
3) Personal finance manager. I track all of my purchases, have several accounts / cards, and need to be able to track/filter business vs personal purchases.

No question the Droid has awesome resolution, but I have noticed that the screen lacks the bright punch of the Eris or iPhone. I have checked this at several Verizon stores and on the You tube videos that compare phones and features.The Droid shows up rather bland on the videos versus the others. My phone arrives tomorrow or Tuesday but I thought someone else might have a reasonable response to this. Comments welcome.

I own a LG G2 D802 and I have SlimKat 2.4 installed.
Often important applications like Nova Launcher, LMT or Firefox will be closed and have to reload. I think it is caused by the RAM management but every time I look at it more than 500mb are free so how could I improve this behaviour?

I recently flashed my HD2 with a Cyanogen based ROM - Hyperdroid - which I recommend whole heartedly. Before that I had a Sense based one which I did not like that much..
However, laggy and clunky as it was it did have something : an app to migrate contacts and sms from previous phones and a nice contact aggregator (not sure if I can call it that) that paired facebook contacts with phone contacts.

i am running CM11, a friend used to be, and we used WhisperPush to send encrypted SMS. He got the M8, now is not running cyanogen mod, and therefore does not get the messages i send to him b/c he cannot receive WhisperPush messages. If I unregister my device from WhisperPush he can receive them. His old phone with CM also does not boot anymore.
There does not seem to be an option to delete his identity key from my phone. How I can do that?

Is there any way I can make my android behave like iphone does with apps and processes when I'm noy using them?On ios 6 and previous (in ios7 it is optional) background app processing is disabled, so battery when not using the phone isn't almost wasted.I don't really need that full multitasking android provides, but I do need better battery life.

I have flashed it several times until i got the ROM i needed, but in one of the wipes i did (cache, dalvik, internal storage, accidentaly deleted the backup too), i came across that is not detecting my SIM card, the usual SIM Management app is not active and i dont know how to configure it. Its like it detects the SIM is there (because it doesnt show the empty slot alert) but it doesnt give me the option to use that network.
I've read about it could be a IMEI problem but i also modded those to the default ones found on my phone, and its still not working, or should i mod them to the SIM IMEI?

It is possible to backport the ram management from kitkat 4.4 to jelly bean 4.3? I don't know maybe in some kind of script? Or the ram management in KitKat is more complex than in jelly bean?

I am using a Sony Xperia Z1 phone running Android 4.3, and a Nexus 7 tablet running 4.4.1. Having no success at syncing photos between the two devices using Google Photo App which is part of Google + on both devices. All my photos taken on both devices are unploaded to google drive and google plus.
When I delete or edit photos, the changes sometimes show up on other device and sometimes they don't. When I create albums, sometimes I can view on the other device, and sometimes I can't. Auto awesome videos often don't show up on the other device too.
It's just a huge mess and thinking of deleting google plus entirely and just using third party photo management app. How to get google plus photos to sync seamlessly.

I noticed a file '/system/priv-app/CMS.apk' (url...) on the latest cm-11 nightly for mako.
I wonder what is it? I can't find an appropriate source code on CMs GitHub. Is this going to be a custom client library like Google Play Services? Why is there no source code on GitHub?

So I am wondering if we remove a certain permission from an app, does the app still have the ability to use that permissions?
Example: Pandora can read contacts list, I remove that permission from the APK, Can Pandora still read my contact list?

When I try and open up my camera app on CyanogenMod 10.1.3 an error pops up reading "Cannot connect to camera". This is really ups setting seeing as how I my camera on a daily basis. And I really don't wanna go back to stock TouchWiz on my Galaxy S3. But if this problem persist I may have no other choice. But I LOVE CyanogenMod.

My current GS3 apparently had water damage, and a new one is coming from the insurance tomorrow. I figured that since the warranty is up and the insurance won't replace it again, I may as well finally root and flash a custom rom. From my poking around the internet, I like CyanogenMod 10.1. I am on AT&T.
I've only attempted a root once before with this current phone, which I think worked, but I abandoned the project months ago and don't remember. In any case, besides that, I've never rooted or flashed a rom before.
After further poking around on the internet, these are the sources I'm planning on using to successfully root and rom:
Rooting: How to Root the Samsung Galaxy S3 " XDA Developer TV " xda-developers
And for the ROM, I'm going to follow this video:
I understand that after rooting, I have to create a backup (using that Titan Backup app in the video I think?" and i am going to use Goo Manager to download the ROM and gapps. I saw another video that had me move files from the computer to my phone, but they didn't do any backing up, and apparently that's necessary.
What does it mean to "trip a flash counter"? And what is a toolkit, and do I need it?

I have an HTC Inspire 4g running Mustaavalkosta's unofficial Cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM. Everything works great, except my Microsoft Bluetooth Mobile Keyboard 5000, which is an HID Bluetooth keyboard (no SPP). I get a proper PIN exchange and it pairs with my phone successfully, but I can't actually type anything with the keyboard, and it does not appear in the Languages and Input section of the Settings app. The keyboard itself is good because I can use it with my laptop and an iPad.
I've tried apps like BlueInput, MyBlueCon, and Bluetooth keyboard easyconnect, but all fail to make a connection with my keyboard. In the case of BlueInput, I get a message that "this Android does not support Bluetooth HID."

Is the Cube U9GT-2 compatible with CyanogenMod?
I've got Gingerbread on my tablet, but I'm not really satisfied with this OS, maybe because it's developed for smartphones and not tablets.
