[Q] [CM10.1] Android 4.2 pretty slick; multi-user mode? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Hey guys, so I took the plunge and updated from CM10 to CM10.1 today (20121218 build) and I am here to report that Android 4.2 is pretty slick. For those that are going to update, here are a couple of things you might also see:
1. My wireless connectivity was a little sketchy after the update. I had to go into the list of APNs and restore the defaults...after that, everything was fine.
2. On startup, the clock app crashes. In order to stop that (and set new alarms) I had to clear data from the app.
3. If you want to enable developer options, it's hidden now and has to be enabled from the about phone menu.
4. The new features are pretty cool, IMO.
Now my million-dollar question:
Android 4.2 is supposed to bring multi-user support, but I can't find it or figure out how to enable it. From the quick settings panel there is a tile called user switcher, but when you select it it brings up a screen that only allows me to select the current (default) user. There's not much written about it yet...are there any knowledgable peeps out there that can help a brother out and drop some knowledge?
Thanks for reading!

Just guessing. That's all. I'm thinking its a Work in progress.

I'm almost certain that the multi-user support is for tablets only, as for cm 10.1 im dying to try it but I think I'm going to wait till most of the bugs are worked out of it before I take the plunge.

http://10.1.cmxlog.com/?device=d2att here's CM10.1's changelog. It appears multi-user is to come with the next nightly 12/19. Btw questions belong in the Q&A section.

Nice! Thanks. At least I don't have to wait long. I'm stoked to try this out.

I don't have any options in about phone for developer. Can you be more specific sir?

IIRC: Multiuser is a tablet only-feature in stock Android, highly likely due to a Nokia patent regarding a multiuser function for phones.
Though that might not stop mods from appearing, that enable it on phones, but I don't know if CM will support it on phones in an official release...

I think you're misreading the changelog. This change is to allow the su binary to support multiple users, not to add multi-user support to the ROM in general.

[DEV] Galaxy Tab 7" LCD screen tuning

Hi Galaxy Tab owners!
Samsung was so kind and sent me a Galaxy Tab (SHW-M180S) to help me developing for it. Thanks Samsung Mobile Korea
That's why, only a few hours after receiving it I introduce support of this device in my research project app named Voodoo Screen Tuning R&D, available for free on Android Market.
This app is very much experimental and not a final product. See it as an internal leak from a R&D lab. But as Linus tells: release early, release often
Please take a look at the app description, and have fun testing this app!
I need your feedback, so.. see you soon.
Note: support starts with snapshot #31.

Give a try to snapshot 33
With the overlay interface, you'll be able to see very clearly the effect of enabling/disabling CABC (Content Adaptive Backlight Control)
CABC is enabled in default Samsung settings, disabled in "dev" preset.
Note: much more than backlight is affected, IE the whole response curve with Samsung's advanced & complete CABC implementation.
Example: with a low contrast & dark content, then in the settings (white background)
Is it possible that it doesn't keep settings after a reboot?
Because when i reboot it seems to me that it return to Samsung setting and if i cleck on dev i see the difference.

Auto restore at boot is not yet implemented.
So far I'm thinking about how to write cleanly the codebase to do that despite the variety of device supported, sometimes with "presets" (combination of settings already present in kernel), sometimes with "profiles" (color calibration profiles built from scratch using reverse-engineering and a colorimeter).
I want to write only super cleanly designed code in this app so.. no rush
Ahhh....no worry, i thought it was a bug so i've reported

Whenever TMO releases it but if you're impatient then wait for the dev's from 9505 forums to release a custom version. I'm guessing within the next few days or sooner. Or you can use the Odin version but you have to do some work to get it to work. Go to their forums & find out how or use the search button there.
Im on bobcat rom and it's being talked about for the next release hopefully soon..
Secured boot status.. Doesn't necessarily mean that they're gonna lock down right? It's just the status
Awesome, even though I'm on an AOSP the Apps2SD will definitely help, not like I couldn't do that already with symlinking or the bind mount option (linux geek here!).
The "Secure Boot" thing is most likely so it can be used by the government and easily see if it's locked down or not. I did notice on the stock rom that at the bottom of About Phone that it mentioned SELinux which is Security Enhanced Linux, pretty much it hardens the Linux kernel so it's less vulnerable to exploits. This may be an extension to that.
Security-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) is a Linux feature that provides the mechanism for supporting access control security policies, including United States Department of Defense-style mandatory access controls, through the use of Linux Security Modules (LSM) in the Linux kernel. It is not a Linux distribution, but rather a set of kernel modifications and user-space tools that can be added to various Linux distributions. Its architecture strives to separate enforcement of security decisions from the security policy itself and streamlines the volume of software charged with security policy enforcement.[1][2] The key concepts underlying SELinux can be traced to several earlier projects by the United States National Security Agency.
It has been integrated into the mainline Linux kernel since version 2.6, on 8 August 2003.

Only if it has been specifically set up for your model phone - or you could soft-brick it.
I always like to ODIN a rooted OTA, completely set it up (usually I do not have to wipe at all - it carries over all my data and apps , and nandroid it. Then I go back to custom ROM's like Wicked's and kernels like faux,s and ktoonsez's .
So if your rooted with a custom rom you can do this update to your device manually. Thanks

Browser and Gallery are forked projects from cm12 and will both be updated in next update. Google has abandoned those apps for their branded counterparts. Factory releases do not come with either as a result, but I don't like "Pictures" as my only gallery and prefer to have an alternative to "Chrome".

That is not a drain. Its a count of unaccounted/over counted stats. Its perfectly normal and is disabled in release builds. I had a dev setting in previous builds to disable it (which will be back in today's release), but all that does is hide it like the release builds...
Hey!
I have two questions.
1. I was playing with "invert colors" option in the accessibility menu. Now it shows up in the toggles menu, won't go away after restarting. Any solution? I know it's a tiny problem.
2. How can I access "app info" from recent apps in 5.1? I've enabled the developer options and I long-press on the application icon, but no luck. I could do this on stock 5.0.2. it's useful I think. But I haven't tested this on your 5.0.2. Is this because of your ROM or google has changed something in 5.1?
I have a Deb with your 5.1 rom (build date March 12th)
Thank you very much!

1. Manually change your device date back 30 days or more, run 'invert colors' again, then restore back to proper date. Added quick settings are on a date timer and will disappear if not re-used.
2. I'm not certain that app info has ever been accessible from "recent apps" tiles. Long pressing on any app in the app drawer will give you 'Uninstall' and 'App info' options below the status bar.

@Thomson2412:
First of all - if anybody with Find 7 is to flash this, he will probably have a custom ROM and it does not have to be CM.
Your zip is obviously for CM ROM. I am using OmniROM with Android 7.1 at the moment.
I flashed it and found out it is not working at all. Altought, it does add the options to settings panel.
Setting any option does not do anything and checking Haptic feedback for any action causes crash.
---
When I flashed the Omni version you have in your original thread (after I removed the OnePlus related checks) the settings options were not there at all - it is in Settings - Device Features.
1. Setting app for Camera gesture works.
2. Clicking on setting vibrator strength causes crash.
And I might be wrong, but it seems that flashing that zip messed up my "menu button one-click".
I do not get any menu popups anymore. Even when I put the original version back..
@Thomson2412 hi I find it's nice feature since I have used this kind of feature when I had oppo f1... Now I am using zuk z1 a msm8974/sd801 device... Can you help me to port it for my device.? Thanks in advanced..

I can't add gestures to a rom that doesn't have them by default because that would require a kernel change and I'm not capable (yet) to implement "new" gestures. Currently I don't have the time nor interest in learning how to change a kernel. So if your device doesn't have gestures I'm afraid I cant be of any help. I only alter what gestures do not add them or create custom ones.
I hope this answers your question, if not feel free to ask some more

[Xposed] (Security) Disable Quick Settings Pulldown on Lock Screen

This is just a simple Xposed module that disables pulling down the notification shade / quick settings tiles while on the lock screen (but doesn't break media player controls on lock screen). Only tested on Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL on Android 10 (more on this later).
Background: This has always been an annoying aspect of Android for me, and it's dumb from a security standpoint. Being able to pull down the quick settings tiles on a locked phone is dumb. Why hasn't Android natively built this in yet? Using this and Gravity Box to disable power menu on lock screen makes me feel a lot better in the event my phone ever gets lost or stolen. It's dumb that anyone can steal your phone and immediately toggle your settings (turn off WiFi, Mobile Data, toggle Airplane Mode, etc) and/or turn the phone off... I've been spoiled for years by the OG HTC devs (particularly LeeDroid and Team Venom) and their ROMs with these features baked in, so it's back to using Xposed to fill that gap for me and my wife, lol. Anyway, I pair these mods along with the Lockwatch app from Play Store and it gives me more peace of mind. Hey, anything to increase the chances of recovering a lost or stolen phone, am I right?
Credits / Technical Details: This module is based off of char101's published Xposed Repo module, and all credits and thanks should go to him. This is the first app / APK I've compiled so it was a nice learning experience, but it was all based off of his source and I really just needed to remove a few lines of code to get it to work properly with our phones. His mod worked fine and disabled the quick settings pull down on the lock screen, as intended. The problem was that it would also prevent media player controls from functioning (and I would assume other possible functions as well). To fix this, I just removed DISABLE2_NOTIFICATION_SHADE references from the code, leaving DISABLE2_NONE and DISABLE2_QUICK_SETTINGS untouched. The mod still works perfectly as intended. Only tested on Pixel 4 / 4 XL on Android 10. I'm sure it would work on other devices as well.
I really just did this on a whim for me and my wife's own phones and wasn't planning on sharing it, but I figure other people may have also wanted this for their P4's as well, so enjoy. Again, all thanks go to @char101!
Installation:
- Download .APK file attached to this post.
* If you have char101's original module installed already, I would highly recommend uninstalling it first.
- It's an Xposed module. Install the APK and enable in your Xposed Manager.
- Reboot and test.
Based on: https://repo.xposed.info/module/com.github.char101.qslock
Source for modified module: https://github.com/i5lee8bit/xposed-qslock-P4mod
Just noticed something that worried me at first, but turned out to be nothing of concern afaik, but in case anyone else gets spooked by it: I just noticed last night that if you launch the camera while on the lock screen, you can still pull down the notification shade. Same can be said for other apps that can be active over lock screen (e.g. Phone app during active call).
However, the quick settings are still inaccessible while locked. The notification contents that do show will follow the same rules as your settings, so if you have it set to hide sensitive notification content (which you probably should... otherwise 2-factor authentication is extremely pointless if your device were lost or stolen), you still won't be able to see the notification content itself, just that there is a pending notification for that particular app.
I hope you're finding the mod useful, for anyone who is using it. Please let me know if you find any issues with the module, thanks. I'm by no means a developer, but I have more free time than usual for obvious global reasons and it's a fun learning experience while the free time lasts. =)
I've been using the original NoQSInLockScreen, and while it did the job, it really bothered me that you couldn't use media controls on the lock screen (or expand notifications).
This mod took care of that problem. Really happy with it!
Just wanted to say thank you for putting it up!
Tested it on Android 9 (LineageOS 16.0).
Just wanted to stop in and say thank you for the awesome edxposed mod! I appreciate the extra security and hope you're doing well!

Just wanted to let you know, as a fellow (now former) user of this mod, that I found a better way of doing this! So just thought I'd share:
Using GravityBox app for EdXposed framework you can simply define which individual QS tiles you want to secure. That way you still have access to the QuickSettings pulldown menu from the lockscreen (unlike this mod which disables it altogether), but things like Wi-Fi, Location, Airplane Mode etc. are secure and not accessible until you've unlocked your phone. It's a much more practical and elegant solution in my opinion.
Check out my post on this from Reddit where I describe the steps if you're interested:

Can't wait to try, does your mod support Android 11?

I completely forgot about this mod, haha. But thanks for letting us know!
As @nanquan mentioned (a long time ago, lol), you can also achieve (essentially) the same thing by using GravityBox. It is indeed a more "elegant" solution, and since I already use GravityBox heavily, I now just use GB's tweaks to lock down the main comm tiles.
But I'm glad this still works, for those who still prefer to use it for whatever reason. I can see it still being useful if you have a lot of custom QS tiles and want to keep it all locked down.

Hello,very usefull mod.Any chance to re-continue it?I use los 19.1 and keeping quick tiles unlocked is extremely unsafe these days..

As well as enabling the module you need to tick the checkbox for 'system framework' and 'system ui'.
