Where do I find the passwords file on my rooted EVO? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Rooted EVO and I would like to know where I can find the passwords file that is supposedly accessible.
Thanks

Well i wont start the flame war about you stole the evo so fuk off go someplace else..... but........
I dont think anyone here with half a brain is going to help someone do this....
There are NO passwords on an evo unless its a third party lockdown app... and then... good luck
The unlock screen code isnt a password as we know it so ....

Did you try looking in the Q&A forum?
Edit:
Seriously though, you wont find it there. You just should have posted there.
I think I am happy with the location of this (if there even is one) not being common knowledge.

Make a request to the app developers who are storing passwords as clear text that they should switch to a different system.
FWIW, while storing passwords in the clear is dumb, even if they were encrypted it will still be trivial for an attacker, assuming the phone is rooted, to compromise the password, all they have to do is compromise the part of the authentication process where the password is decrypted.
The only way to protect yourself against password while using a rooted phone is to be absolutely sure that the apps requesting root permission a) require the permission to actually work, and b) don't abuse root privileges.

I knew that accusation would be quickly following my post but actually it's not stolen. My GF logged into her gmail account on my phone and I can go in an access it but I want access to her Facebook... I think she might be cheating.
Thanks

OK ok i am looking for a program that locks selected or all features on the phone.
Think about it guys, if your girl comes across a locked folder. Wont they ask more questions?
What are you hiding? whats in this folder? so on and so on. lol
The best thing to do is create a program that HIDES a folder.

Its not verizon i had it on my alltel touch pro and i think it just puts the city name when someone you don't know calls you. It never stopped doing that for me after the trial was up and it never popped up saying i need to pay. So it might just be an extra icon you have ti live with.
It is defiantly always running in the background!

Just because it isn't exclusive to Verizon, doesn't mean its not crappy bloatware.
+1 on getting rid of this when root is achieved.
I'm new to Android to so I apologize if this is totally out there. CityID is part of the ROM so it is protected. But I imagine that Cequint must be able to push out an update for CityID or their libraries from time to time.
What if we made our own version of CityID with the same manifest that did nothing and installed it using "Unknown sources"? Would Android see our newer version and use that instead?
Is this possible or do we need to wait for root access?
If you ForceClose it the trial returns to 15 days LOL.
There are some reverse lookup apps that show the name of the caller. Skydeck is well reviewed and I'm testing it.
When my trial period ended it asked if I wanted to keep my subscription and I hit no. It then allowed me to uninstall. Has anyone else had this happen for them?

Ok my free trial ran out last night, but this lame excuse of a program still runs for no reason, but to spy on my phone.
I was not able to remove the program.
This is a good reason to root this phone.
Ok so im new here and im new to the smartphone user crowd but I am pretty good with computers and think I may have found a way to remove City ID (and any other apps preloaded or not) from the Incredible. I was playing around last night and found an "Uninstall" button for City ID but I being a new user to Smartphones and honestly not yet willing to destroy my baby hehe was afraid to press it. Anyways for those (if any) of you out there are willing to try it and see what happens (im not held liable for anything if it goes wrong this is strictly your decision)..here is how you find the button:
1) Enter Astro File Manager (by default it takes you to your SD Card)
2)Hit the "UP" button, it will take you to your phone storage directory.
3)Choose the "System" folder.
4)Choose the "app" folder.
5)Scroll to "City ID". Click on it.
6)Choose "Open App Manager".
7)Voila..there is your button.
Please post if this works..alongside with any side effects etc..it would be greatly appreciated. Hope this helps someone.
Also posted this on XDA-Developers. Look there for replies too if it works. i sure hope so anyways. Search "City ID... how do you uninstall?".
EDIT: Also posted this on androidforums.com. Look there for replies too if it works. i sure hope so anyways. Search "City ID... how do you uninstall?".
No, it doesn't work. We have root now, so you can uninstall it. Someone posted directions somewhere. You just use the rm command from the terminal.
With this removed, do you still get city/state information (I imagine you would as Verizon advertises "Caller ID" as one of it's services). Was this just some moot/redundant app left in to try and make some money off of suckers?

Caller ID is name and phone number.
The translation from phone number to City/State is what CityID does. When removed, there is no display of City/State, but you still get Name and Phone number. As the translation of phone number to City/State for mobile phones is patented by the makers of CityID, Verizon can't provide that service without using the CityID application.

[APP] packet sniffing

ive removed this thread, xda did not ask me to do this, i am doing it on my own, because i no longer wish to make this app public, thank you for your understanding
so this app will connect me to a secured wifi point without entering a password ?
no, lets say youre at school, and you along with everyone else at your school is connected to the schools wifi, you turn on this app, and it will tell you all of the facebook users, amazon users, youtube users ect.. for example it will say facebook: John Dow, Will Smith, Papa Smurf, and so on, with a list of users. just click one of those users, and youre now logged in to their facebook, you can change their status, account info, upload a picture, or snoop through pictures. if youre on youtube, upload a video, change favorites, anything youd do on youtube normally.. if youre on amazon, buy them a flat screen, or some pokemon cards (what ever people use amazon for anyways..) whatever.. get it?

You really are pretty new here. Definitely do your research. When someone contacts you, check out their post count, look at what types of threads they've created, and the thank meter is always a good indicator
Obviously, some developers will be easily recognizable, and won't necessarily warrant checking up on them; there will definitely be some that are good contributers, but you might not know it without looking into their work.
And some are just not trustworthy.

Idk if u can completely disable it but long pressing the contact u can remove em in 1 click i will check if they can be disabled and edit the post
Edit: i dont see any option to disable them entirely but deleteing is easy and it deletes the entire frequent call log for that contact and not just one call at a time so if u have (contact name) 15 calls to that contact it deletes all 15 calls and not just 1 call at a time

If you're going to be a douche and cheat on your woman and not have the balls to, you know - be a man and tell her what's up. Then at least put in some effort to cover your tracks instead of being lazy. Delete the frequently called list yourself, manually.
I'll take my infraction if that's what happens. This thread is stupid. Reported.

Do most people not know about the apps on the market that hide info like that? If you want to hide certain numbers when they call/text - get a black list app/privacy app or something like that. I like showing off what my phone can do also so I know what you mean. However, I don't allow complete strangers to handle my phone. I don't mind people seeing the name of someone I call often - I'm more concerned about the pictures they might see.
Guys, I use shady sms. It's got a built in call guard and a hidden contact list. Dev is cool too, he responds with help usually same day.
It blocks calls, sms, and hides them in the app. There's no app icon either. To open it, you go to phone, type your secret code, and hit send.

Damn, I was just joking.. Did I touch a spot, did your significant other cheat on you or etc... WOW!
I just want to app that monitors the Frequently Called list and prevents contacts from ever appearing on it without having to manually clear the list.
I know there other members looking for a similar solution to this problem....
Didn't mean to touch a nerve, hope you get your partner back, root their phone or something nice like that! Good luck!
Maybe edit the phone.apk or dialer.apk to get rid of the frequent list all together.
Or it may just be editing a value check for a call to save to the list. That way its always empty.
If you're going to be a jerk to your wife, then at least just get a separate phone. Or maybe you DO want to get caught. If you really cared you would not cheat, and if she's not what you want any more do the right thing and divorce her so she can do what she wants and maybe find someone who respects her without having to be concerned about someone who seems to not care about her(you).
That being said, I would check out Shady SMS, seems to help some ways. I figure the cost is worth it if you don't want to get caught.

Any new info on the subject
I think the app Super Private Conversation hides all communication from certain contacts and it is free on the market.
They changed the name to Private SMS & Call but it works wonders and is free. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superdroid.spc&hl=en
Alternatively, just use google voice for that purpose. All outgoing calls and text will be hidden within the google voice app.
Got to admit this was some good reading... If that man is capable of having more than one woman don't be mad at him... Kudos to you for at least not wanting to flaunt it and taking the time to try and do your pimping right.......hahahaha
