Hello fellow Arc users.
I want to listen to Pandora.com in Europe. On my computer I'm all set with Tor network. I have looked for similar solution on Android and there is Torbot. Problem is that it doesn't work for me. It gives error about transparent proxy building problems.
I'm on Arc Knight Rc2.2(Jimbo is not answering dm's) kernel and Team Xperia Tweaked v3.0 Rom (ICS 4.0.4).
Opinions, solutions, appreciated.
-----Solution------
Spent some time playing around with Torbot and found solution. Here it is:
Typical error is: Transparent proxy not woking. Problem is caused by iptables Orbot is using. It appears app has their own solution and it is not working with Android 4.0.4 (ICS).
Step by step solution.
1. In settings enable root access
2. Check Transparent Proxying
3. Check "Use default Iptables" under Debug section.
Now when I check if I'm using tor, it still shows that I'm not but it might be because I'm not using tor for browsing.
To listen to Pandora.com on Android I have done these additional steps:
4. Install Android market enabler - (can't post link as this is my first post). You won't be able to install it from Play if you are outside US. It just won't show it in search results.
5. Choose US based market. Save restore point to go back to your home market id.
6. In phone browser go to pandora.com and choose download option through Play.
7. In Torbot settings edit "Exit nodes" and type in "{us}". This restricts Tor to US.
8. Under "Sellect Apps" choose Pandora
9. Launch Pandora and enjoy music. Don't forget to buy Pandora One and support artists
If this helped you, don't hesitate and hit Thanks.
Try DroidVPN. I used to use it on GB but with the latest ICS 4.0.4 Stock ROM, my phone just reboots. Since you're on a Custom ROM, you shouldn't face the same issue.
Cheers!

Critical Kernel Patch:
You MUST Apply this PATCH first In order to upgrade your ROM with future kernel updates from me...(You only need to do this EXACTLY 1 time, then afterwards you may update to my new kernel whenever they are available)
[Kernel Update Instructions]
This is my second ROM cooking... The reason I created this ROM is NOT TO COMPETE with anyone else, it is mainly for myself. I wanted a pure stock Sense ROM that's STABLE and FAST but I also wanted to try something slightly different (And I needed a stable pure stock Sense ROM for myself to test my kernels against.)
I WON'T BE Updating this ROM unless something is Seriously WRONG with it...
(I WON'T BE taking FEATURE REQUESTS and such, most can be added by yourself from various mods found in the Theme and Apps sub forum )
So here it is: Orange Sense ?!?!?!?
Why the name:
Because ClockworkMod Recovery (3.0.0.5+) for Gingerbread is colored Orange for EXT 4 partitions and since this ROM uses EXT 4 File System (FS) as its primary FS, I decided to name it this way.
So what is in this Orange Sense?
[NOTE: This is a FROYO BASED (Android 2.2.1) Sense 2.0 Implementation. This is NOT the NEW Gingerbread (Android 2.3.3) Sense which is 2.1 ]
1. Completely rebuilt from Stock Desire Z Image hosted here (RUU_Vision_hTC_Asia_HK_CHT_1.84.708.1, the last one)
2. Uses exclusively EXT 4 FS
3. Moved all optional Apps to /data/app partition for easy uninstall (including most Google Apps)
4. Rooted, /system set to RW by default
5. Deodexed, Zip aligned all /system/apps and framework files using ROM kitchen from fellow XDA member.
6. Dalvik memory boosted from default 24MB to 36MB
7. Few CFS tweaks
8. Added WiFi Calling, Swype and Qik video chat.
I want to [Thank] the following:
Evil D for inspiring me to port a Non-Glacier ROM to MT4G. I also KANGED his HTC Camera App to work with FFC and Back cameras and I used his Desire Z port as a guide/reference when I was porting this version.
rmk40 for super user / sqlite3 hack that I KANGED to fix the SU/sqlite3 FCs on ported Sense ROMs.
dsixda for the easy to use ROM kitchen (highly recommended to anyone interested in cooking their own ROM, it CAN'T be easier than what he provided)
Installation:
The File ==> Orange Sense Version 1.0.2 <==
Patch 1: Kernel PATCH (use for updating to newer kernels)
Patch 2: wpa_supplicant Patch (use for fixing WiFi connection issues when connecting to hidden SSID routers)
WARNING: The INSTALLER WILL ERASE ALL USER DATA AND SYSTEM DATA!!!
Requirement: MUST HAVE CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY 3.0.0.5 or 3.0.0.6 (preferred)
1. Reboot into recovery
2. Wipe Cache Partition
3. Install zip from SDCard
4. Once installation is completed, select Reboot System Now
Note: Upon first reboot may take up to 4~6 mins.
Patch Note: To apply patch, reboot into recovery, install the patch zip file, then reboot...
The following pre-installed Apps will need to be updated MANUALLY from Market by searching for their names:
Adobe Reader
Facebook (Not the built-in integrated Sense version)
Twitter (Not the built-in integrated Sense version)
Youtube
Google Mail
Google Search
Google Maps
Google Street
Google VoiceSearch
Qik Video Chat
or they can all be easily un-installed because they are NO LONGER System Apps.
Bugs/Incompatibilities:
1. Any Real-Time Streaming Video Player will have a yellow/blue play icon stuck in the middle of video (annoying but still watchable). This is due to framework / library mismatch... I will investigate on this but not super high priority...
2. Pure Sense Framework is HUGE... I can't test all combinations, so there might be bugs here and there... Report them on this thread and I try to address them (Remember this is a PORT of a ROM designed for another phone... so things may not lined up completely.)

All official themes should work and all MODs if done correctly for pure sense framework should work (but no guarantees... you just have to make sure the modder is good and didn't make any mistakes)

Man I love this rom so much it's awesome. Thanks for the great work! The only bug I see so far is when I'm playing music through the HTC music player in the notification tray it doesn't say what I'm listening to. Instead it just says "plugin_file_path" Other then that everything is working fine

LOL, it's funny you posted this.. because I am running it right now at work and listening to music and the name is prefect... I don't know why you are seeing that...
Ok so I put music on my SD card and now it's working fine. Earlier I was streaming from my pc and it was saying that. Maybe it's just because I was streaming music? Sorry I forgot to clarify
Hello
I rooted my Desire last week (finally!!!) and put on CM 7.1
Coming from stock HTC Rom everything is now a complete new world...
I have searched and searched to find a solution but argh!! It seems I'm the only one...?
When I browse on the internet on my Desire it seems that it always chooses the mobileversion of a page - instead of the "real big page"
In the stock Htc browser I could tick if I wanted to browse showing the mobileversion - but this doesn't seem to be possible with CM 7.1?
I have tried to install Dolphin Browser HD too but that didn't solve it either...
Please please help me!!!
hi
in cyanogenmod you can choose the user-agent in Menu->Settings->User-Agent. There you can switch between several options.
AndroidJaspie
Thank you but there doesn't seem to be any solutions under this CyanogenMod settings...???
not in the cyanogemod-settings.
open your browser, press menu und select settings. there you can setup the user-agent you want.
open browser>settings>user-agent choose a diffrent profile and that's all
Edit I'm very slowhand
Oh I see!
But which version do you use then...? Because it seems that neither Android nor Froyo gives me the ability to look other than mobileversion homepages...?
maybe you should try linu-desktop or mac-desktop to get a standart view of the page
Yes! Linux desktop was the solution and then clearing cache... Thank you all
no problem
I'm on michael etc etc rom which is a sense rom. In brower settings I have also to unflag mobile view manage user agent only for aosp rom
I'm too slowhand ...I give up
Alternatively use Dolphin Browser HD and change the user agent from the menu there.
When I try to open Settings>About tablet>Status, I get a popup telling me that Settings has crashed. Also, I can create a new user, but when I try to set it up, it instantly soft-reboots and does not allow me to use or set up the new account. Has anyone ever had/seen this problem? Help would be much appreciated!
Info: I am running stock rooted JSS15R that I got from here*. I am also using the Xposed Framework with the "MoDaCo Toolkit," "GravityBox," "Play Store links in App info" and "Hotword From Results" modules.
*New user, cannot post links. The ROM is from scottsroms.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=457
I am planning to flash PA to my old Nexus 7 (Tilapia) without gapps. The idea is to find out whether an Android device can be decoupled from Google. And whether such a device can still be used in a normal day to day scenario for surfing, mail, contacts ...
There are many apps out there which could be used instead of the apps in the gapps package (i.e. play store => f-droid, mail => k-9, chrome => firefox, maps => navit / OsmAnd, ...). And with a simple raspberry pi and owncloud also some of the google services can be replaced by an self hosted solution.
What are your thoughts on this:
- Is this possible in principle with PA?
- What should I watch out for when setting up the N7?
- Any other suggestions?
Of course you can do it. The ROM is functional without gapps

I don't know what it is you should be watching out for when trying your experiment but I believe it can be done. You'll have to use a 3rd party app store to download the apps you want to replace the stock apps with (k-9, etc). But once you start doing that, what's the point?
To prove you don't need to use Google Branded apps? Just root your device, install Titanium and freeze all the google apps. Same thing, right?
Just flashed PA without gapps. Added some great Apps from f-droid. Everything works great. Next steps will be to Conect to a dropbox server.
Currently I am getting a notification that a new system update, a new gapps version is available. Can I somehow disable in PA the check for new gapp versions?
Thanks!

Thanks Pirateghost, just found it.
I am currently running into two issues:
I installed the "920 text editor" via f-droid. But when I try to start it the app it opens for a nearly a second and then a error window says >"920 Text Editor" wurde beendet.< (I am using a German system; translation something like >"920 Text Editor" was stopped.<). Is there a log file which could provide more information why this application was not able to start?
I paired my German bluetooth keyboard (QWERTZ layout) with the nexus. But unlike to stock Android in PA they keyboard is mapped with the American layout (QWERTY layout). So some keys are not inline with the labelling. I did not find a way to change the used layout in the settings. Any ideas?
Hello guys! 2 days ago i was away from home and i wanted to watch a football match! I had my 12.2 screen great wifi network but the problem is that the samsung browser chrome or mozilla dont support flash content. After a small search i found my solution and i just share to everyone because we have a very nice big screen so we can use it and for this.
Steps!!!
1) Install flash player apk from here https://mega.co.nz/#!FsgAlBQK!8Ob18zfamGYc4RDKgu1bWtOVdMO5yaN9xv9x2SLrZlQ (It is a mega.co link so if you try to download from mobile you must have and the app from the google play store)
2)Install from Gplay store the latest dolphin browser.
3)Open it and go to settings (press menu button or if you have the recent button press it untill you see the new menu) -> settings -> Web content -> second row says flash player change this to always on.
4)Restart your browser and check at any flash page (in my case sportlemon with football) and check if it works!
Thats it!
