Tayutama's JPM Froyo w/Xcaliburinhand's Re-oriented Kernel - 11/04/2010 -- possible security concern
Installed the above ROM.
ROM Post link:
Code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=816271
Working good on my Captivate.
One concern: How do I take off the "minus" marks on the app icons that lets us delete apps right from the home screen (the screen we get when we click on the home button).
I see this as a security risk. I have app protector pro. But then, we can just delete the app protector pro in this mode without even asking for any password or anything, and all my apps are open for everyone to use.
Could anyone please help me take off this option to quick uninstall apps from home screen.
This thread is a joke, right?
wow just great now this post with almost the exact same title as the rom post will get me confused which is which from now on

Nope. I am serious. So far I realized that unless a person knew how to mod a Captivate, he didn't know how to access protected apps. But now, even a layman can just delete the 'app protector pro' and access all the apps that are supposed to locked by it.

I think you haven't noticed that i added "possible security concern" beside it in the title itself.

You do know that once you rooted your phone, anyone with a little knowledge can do much more than simply delete apps... just don't lose your phone or give it to an iphone buddy who might wonder what the neat little thingys on your screen do
Bye. What launched are you using that you see this in.... and deleting an icon from your home screen does not uninstall it on any that I have used

Not the icon. Like when u press the home icon, u can see all the apps present on ur device. For user installed apps, u can see a small "minus" in a circle on the right top of app icon, just like in iphone when u go to edit mode. click on that, and it will uninstall the app.

Pardon me if my concern is not really one. I am just expressing myself.
I use Application Protection from the market. Upon uninstalling any app it always asks for the pin. There is no removing the program without it.

Right, this is as long as the app is there. I am telling about a situation where the protection app itself is removed. I could remove it without it asking me for the pin.

Another possible solution is to install another launcher that dosen't have uninstall in the application tray or doesn't work at this time (my LG Optimus below) and use root explorer to remove the two launcher and reboot.

Sounds logical. But I am on Cognition 2.4.1 ROM now
Why not just have a lockscreen?
You do realize that if someone gets ahold of your phone everything can be taken out by someone who is skilled enough... right?

Others have already pointed this out, but what you need to do is dl and install a different launcher from Market and then uninstall the TWLauncher. Problem solved.
Just because TWLauncher is the default in Cog 2.4.1 doesn't mean that you have to use it. Get another launcher. Or you could try never letting your phone out of your sight...
Well I can't get video play back to work on cyanogen 6.1 I had the same problem with 6.0 is there any fix for this problem? Once I get around this I will b ever so happy. The video format tht I can't get to play are in mp4 format

Glad you contributed in a way that helped OP...
OP, What steps have you taken to try to eliminate things from causing the issue? What is your kernel etc... number of different things that could potentially cause a problem. Have you done a clean install (full wipe of dalvik/system) then install the rom and install nothing else and still have issues playing the video(s). Give us some details and we'll go from there
I had the same problem...

You have to set your rate lower...I can't remember on the top of my head, but it helps...not to be rude, but if you dig a little, you will find it using the search...it took me awhile, but I found it...also it gives you the correct size to use...my video now takes up the entire screen...
Thanks for helping my kernel is 2.6.29.6-cyanogenmod [email protected] #3 I installed this rom through rom manager and unless tht wiped everything tht needed to b done.. ill have to try tht in a Manuel reboot correct? And I apologize for any possible wrong area post or repeat post. I tried looking for other people having this problem but I was unable to locate people with similar issues I used the search option in the xda app and I didn't locate any topics tht looked like they would relate.. further more I was more concerned tht the lack of certain video file playback might of been an issue with the rom rather then something else I have posted on other sites and topics but no one has helped

Ignore the guy that was being a **** about the search, does the youtube app play video? if so then as previous posted had replied the framerate and encoding etc maybe too high for the hero to play back, check that
I do have the froyo version of the YouTube app and tht plays with no problem... let me chx tht frame rate issue real fast be right back
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Ok I just finished looking at everything I could. Possibly relate to frame rate adjusting.... I had no luck finding anything bout adjusting "framerate" the closes I got was in adw launcher settings and it let me adjust the frame rate for Wht I think were just for the launcher... do u know where I go to adjust tht? This also made me think are my videos are what is causing the problem? Now when I was on HTC - sprint 2.1 I never had an issue with them.. but do u think they are to high/low in quality to play.. cuz after ripping the episodes onto my computer I uses psp9 to convert them into mp4 at the lowest setting ...

Guys, saw someone else post this in the Development forum and thought I would post here. Basically the sense 3.0 Lockscreen but I cannot seem to get it to work. I'm guessing it's something within my settings but if one of you gets it working please let me know. Always nice to have options!

I like the ripple lock :-D
I have it working. Click on the app in your app drawer and then click start. Thats it! I think I may buy it that way I can adjust everything. For those who bought it, you can change the icons right?

thats strange...try uninstalling and reisntall it or you can try a restart of your phone. something goofy is acting up. I haven't seen too many complains like that in the reviews so I would try one of those things I mentioned.

Sounds great, I would love to get this to work and I'll continue to play with it.
Interestingly enough, when I disable the Status Bar in the Agile Lock settings everything works as it should. Of course this is only available in the paid version.
This work for anyone else?

Same problem as him but I have a Nexus one and I did not have a deleted app like him.
Thanks.

I experience the same thing (intermittently), but only when connected to Bluetooth in my car. Anyone else connected to Bluetooth while this happens?

Hi all,
My first post, and as of yesterday my first custom ROM. Despite some sweaty moments it worked fine thanks to the guidance on this forum and some leaps of faith Can't reply to the relevant thread directly since I'm n00b.
Was very happy with this, however one killer issue that's meant I've had to revert to stock is that Google Talk (installed via GApps link with the ROM) crashes to desktop (no FC dialog) when i attempt to use voice or video within it. Skype seems to work fine though. Anyone else experienced this? I haven't seen it previously reported on here which makes me think maybe I didn't clear something properly (I used cwm recovery 5.5.0.4 to wipe cache, factory reset and clear dalvik prior to flash). I tried repeating the entire upgrade twice from scratch but same issue is still apparent.
Thanks for the coolness and hopeful for some help and further development.

Hey.
You're not the only one. I have the same issue with Google Talk. I, like you, thought that I wasn't installing something right. I even went as far as using an outdated gapps package, namely 20120726, to no avail. If you've gotten help with this, please let me know. Otherwise, I have no idea what else to do. I don't want to revert to stock because, quite frankly, its terrible. Also, to anyone else reading this, any help would be appreciated.
Try uninstalling talk after you've flashed the Rom and then reinstalling it. Had a similar problem with Google search.

I just checked the tablet and i dont see an option for uninstalling the app. just force close and disable. I also checked the play store to try and download the app, but i dont see it in there. maybe i'm missing something? like i said before, any help would be appreciated.
I'm not familiar with Google talk, is it the same as voice. To uninstall you'll need tibu or something like that.
I did find talk to chat in the play store which maybe the same thing you're talking about

Hey, I just want to thank you for your response. Its been a big help. Unfortunately, google talk isn't the same as voice. Its the chat client that is found in gmail and stuff. They just have a separate app for it on android devices. I think i may just use skype to video chat since i can't seem to find a fix for this and I can't bring myself to go back to the stock rom. If anyone happens to find a fix or knows of one, please let us know. Thanks.

My first ROM as well and facing the same problem with GTalk. Skype & Hangout on Google+ works fine. I was also wondering probably i missed a step.
But this ROM is so awesome don't want to restore. Other problems I am facing is that USB is not getting recognized on tablet and 3G not working. Any of you facing similar problem with 3G and USB?

As far as 3G, my tablet is the WiFi only, so I can't help you there.
With the usb, have you tried turning on the MTP setting? When you connect the tablet, go to settings>storage> and in the upper right hand side of the screen, if you press on the 3 dot things, you are going to see USB computer connection. press that and you will see the option to turn on MTP. I hope this helps.
Thanks for the replies, glad to know I'm not alone with g talk. Finally got stock ics ota but it's terrible! Prime example is Swype keyboard often appears the size of a credit card. Going back to cm as soon as talk fixed also had the USB issue but didn't try the workaround
