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...
I've been playing with this player a few days now and it seems to be working pretty damn well for a leaked version. I found it off google when it was leaked. The UI is amazing
I saw it come up in the epic 4g section when i made this post. I did a search and couldn't find it in the captivate theme/app section so I'd thought I post it here. Enjoy.
isn't that the gingerbread MP? i dont think ANYTHING from honeycomb is released/known about

I'm not sure. When I found it it was labeled honeycomb.
well they have this video over at engadget if you want to see it in action a bit : http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/05/google-shows-off-android-3-0-the-entirely-for-tablet-honeycom/
This player is pretty cool. Not to fond of the UI colors and such but with a little work it'll be nice, dark, and perfect.

Dang! How to install it? It won't let me because it's Music app, how can I install it if I already have a stock music app? Some adb push?

Yeah, I'm fairly certain this is from Gingerbread. It's definitely a slick UI though.
I just launched the .apk to install. My phone now has two Music apps, but that might not be a bad thing in case this new one acts up.
Thanks to the OP.

from what iv read in the nexus s forum the best way is to adb push it and also delete or move the old music.apk. they are getting a lot of force closes over there if not done correctly so it could be hit or miss for now.

it's an apk file you can drop it in systems. You can have both players running at the same time and set one as default. I haven't had any issues so far running both

Yes... how are you supposed to sync with your pc library? I have some music on my card but its not finding anything now. I would also like that album view but it doesnt display like the screenshots you posted.
thanks!
I believe it's supposed to sync with Google's cloud system so you don't have to have your music with you but still be able to listen to it.

i love this contact app and when you go to manage a contact it doesnt divert you to the installed contact app manager!!!
hey chrismcgraw... could you do me a favor and make a backup and post a copy of the "get 3d games" app link.. i heard it gives you 7 free games and i already deleted it cause i thaought it was bloatware... lol
thanks
Thanks
Thanks for the file...its the correct one, with the correct name, despite getting it in the right place, something is still missing. I tried an alternate Contacts.apk to no avail either.
Maybe if someone can post a list of the files found in /system/app I can pin-point what's missing...isn't there an odex file that goes with it?
I installed go contacts from the market and now my contacts show up in there so I'm back in business yeah buddy

I was going to say the same thing as you dude. LOL!
i do the same thing and regretting...Here's an idea:backup the contacts apk&odex in p920 by using system app remover to restore the backup in p925?
Has anyone been able to get the AT&T Address Book re-installed? I've tried both of the .apk files that were in this thread but no dice. "Application failed to install." Currently using a replacement contact app but that isn't really ideal. Any ideas?
System apps are always hard to reinstall on official rom...I called AT&T and they helped me with 2 hours and no result...the only thing we can do is waiting for the new rom or return it(if you buy it within 30 days and this is what i want to do)
This is how you do, install root explorer , copy the At&t....apk to system, (app) folder then restart.

I tried, but this way doesn't work. SAR has busybox, maybe it's a chance...
Anyone have this apk? I paid for it, did a factory reset when I sent it off for the 4g upgrade now this app has been removed from the market which is BS cuz I can't redown load it. Am I just SOL on this?? I liked this app
It wouldn't work. The server for downloading the roms is defunct. I have the apk from an old version of snesoid and it doesn't connect.
google rom downloads. I can think of at least 4 extremely popular sites off the top of my head.
What patass said.
I know it's inconvenient to not be able to use a native android app to download them directly to your XOOM, but I've found that it's actually better for keeping the ROMs backed up in folders on my computer. That way when I have to wipe my XOOM for whatever reason, I can just push the ROMs folder with everything in it to my SD card.
Can someone upload their ROMs to Dropbox and share?

I found the story where I got the $5,000 from: http://www.cnet.com/news/software-converts-android-apps-to-tizen-os-too-bad-theres-no-phone-yet/
It says it's from "Infraware, a Korean software developer and creator of the Polaris Office suite for mobile devices" so it's the same company as your Polaris App Generator site.
"Infraware is charging developers $5,000 an app, but will provide support for two years -- Moon considers that the shelf life of most apps. The huge fee also helps to deter pirates from ripping off apps and putting them on Tizen."
