Enterprise/IT Security Software - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know if LG is including enterprise friendly software, like Knox? If I can get the kind of job I want, I wanna be able to bring my own device, not be stuck with an iPhone or, gulp, a Blackberry? I'm not a big rooting/custom ROM guy anymore tho I'll always love Android.

I hope not, I see where you are coming from but I really hope they don't.

It would be OK if it were installable from play store. ... but not everyone wants Knox on their phone like Samsung thinks

I understand, but people do want to be able to use their phones at work, esp. in certain industries, like finance, security, IT, government agencies, etc now that Android is becoming mainstream in those areas.

That is why it should be a choice .... but not every phone they can make it that way if they want .... good for enterprise ... etc would work and allow people to do it without forcing it on every phone

Google vs. Apple lawsuit (GNEX updates)

I'm on Sprint. From what I understand Google is gonna be taking off the native search capabilities from this phone. Does that mean in OTA updates the feature will be gone?

I'm sure OTA updates aren't gone.
But from what I understand, if I'm wrong correct me please.
Apple sued Google because apparently apple has rights over being able to search for certain things inside the phone. Like apps specifically I think
So I think that's probably what Google is gonna remove.
As far as I know and understand.

But im pretty sure the feature won't be entirely gone.
IMHO, apple is very childish.
not to mention that the only thing keeping them alive is the false 'hype' for their devices.
Trust me, ive had iphones, and Id switch an iphone any day of the week for a Nexus or GS3
But seriously, don't worry about the search thing, most likely google will either find a way around it, or you know..

Rooting for others

Lately I've had a few people ask me to root their phones for them. I am not sure if I want to do this or not, it seems there is a lot of liability involved when hacking on a phone that isn't mine. On the other hand these people are offering $$$ for the service, so I guess I am just looking for opinions.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I'd say its cool, your providing a service that they can't do themselves and is realitively safe as long as you know what your doing. Just know that if anything goes wrong with the phone regardless if it has to do with you rooting it, that they'll most likely come back to you with the expectation you have to fix it. Just my opinion.

This is exactly why I won't root friends phones..IMO rooting is easy enough. If someone can't bother to or can't figure out how to root, chances are they will encounter problems down the line which will inevitably be your problems.

Most of the time it is because the os is not supported on that app ... Like when ICS first came out you have some apps that won't work on it .... There is usually nothing that can't be fixed you didn't have to sell it just find out what wasnt right and fix it ..

I haven't experienced a single unwarranted app crash. The few times I did have a crash it was do to user error or restoring app data. Did you make sure that you wiped everything between roms? Any left over data can cause all sorts of issues down the line.

Rooting the Note 2 doesn't take away any functionality, if anything it adds extra functionality that wasn't there by default.
For example: Do you happen to use the multi-window capability that the device has? If you do, wouldn't it be even better if you could use any app you wanted and not just the predetermined choices? Most custom roms offer that to root users.
What apps are useless with root? How is the Spen useless?
The only time that my Spen has ever been useless is when I'm not using it. Even aosp roms that don't natively support it have apps that will bring most of, if not all of, it's practical applications back. And aosp is only an option and not a requirement to being rooted.
I apologize if this seems overly harsh or blunt but for someone who blatantly states "I have never rooted any of my device [e]ven my gn 2" I would refrain from giving out false information, and if you truly wish to help out someone with a question pertaining to things that you don't understand (as of yet) that you would research it to give your response a more meaningful bit of advice.

They run on different network types, they have different software and some different hardware and entirely different model numbers. You want the gt-n7100/n7105 forums this is the sph-l900. If you use anything from this forum you run a real good risk of bricking your phone. Your total lack of knowledge between the device differences is one reason you definitely shouldn't be rooting your phone and most likely the reason you broke the last device you tried to root.
I like to break stuff!
I never root by reading on xda I just Google for the roms or pda files for my model........ By the way what different hardware u got in ur model. My GN2 costed me rs. 40000=approx 930 USD(after conversion)..........Plz mention the hardware difference.... It's damn so disappointing If u got tegra enabled GN2 much cheaper than me......N 1 more thing I rooted my device

We have CDMA radios, LTE radios, no wireless charging, partitions are formatted differently for the different partitions required by the network differences and other country specific differences. The differences aren't huge but their enough to make them 2 entirely different devices that can't share software/firmware without modification if it can share them at all, some things arent interchangeable no matter how much you modify them, like modems.

You could unlock your device if its not already (not sure if international devices are tied to a specific carrier) and use any of our GSM networks like at&t or t-mobile or the numerous prepaid variants of the 2. That's the one nice thing about unlocked GSM devices all you have to do to change networks is switch out the SIM card.
I like to break stuff!
We have lotzzz of carriers here and I have 5 sim cards. Sometimes, I use 2 cards simultaneously with a dual slot chip set does this means my model is unlocked?

Most likely, im not even sure foreign carriers lock their devices like they do here in the US. If you bought your phone full price then its more than likely unlocked, the more I think about it I'm almost positive most foreign carriers don't provide locked phones outside of a few UK and French carriers that sell carrier branded hardware.
I like to break stuff!
I suggest you unroot your device. You seem you didnt get any advantage from rooting other than wasting your own time.
OP,
You have an international version so you're already unlocked. Is there any app that you need super user access for? Do you care to modify your phone, or are you happy with it the way it is? If you like the phone the way it is, leave it unrooted. You'll get software updates faster, won't void your warranty, and won't mess with something you may have no need for.

I wonder why the Google Wallet issue is getting so little visibility???

I am TIRED of waiting on Isis. Who knows if it will even accept Visa cards (CHECK CARDS). Google Wallet can do this today but AT&T is blocking us. Is anyone else tired of this??? I see very little noise about this on the Internet, and it confuses me.

Because there isn't much we can do about it. Its a competition and a niche one at that. Not a whole lot of stores are geared to support it, and the ones that do are tied up with either Visa or Google Wallet or Mastercard in contract garbage.
Just mod it in for now until the dust settles and a standard is made. I've been using it for months without an issue.
+1 to this^^^^^^^^^
Yeah I know what ya mean. But AT&T can't block those that know how to get it working on there device!
Kinda like myself.
But I understand your question, because Sprint is doing it no problem! Signed my buddy up on his phone and he loves the hell out of it. He uses it almost everyday!

Then perhaps you can tell me how to get my wallet working again after switching Rom's and not resetting wallet? The dreaded "Device set up failed" screen is going to drive me to drink.....too late. The point of Milkman00 is a valid one, why do we have to do these cat and mouse games to make something work that hardware wise these phones are capable of performing? Truthfully, I don't understand why Google doesn't balls up and force the carriers to allow this app if it is indeed the carriers that are blocking it.

This is a major problem for me too. If they won't accept Visa, they are useless for me.
Not sure if it will help anyone, but I finally got my GW to work. Had to install modaco toolkit and xposed installer, then use the install files (and instructions) from the skynote rom page found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093870
Tried other combinations of things with no luck. Did those things with a reboot and it works for me. I may have even done too many steps, but it works. and thats what counts.

It's free with jump. I haven't noticed anything good or bad about it. Hasn't detected anything. Doesn't gripe about apks I've patched. We have 3 gigs of ram probably doesn't hurt. I'm in the anti male are scanners for android camp but until I flash a room without it I'm probably just going to leave it enabled. On the plus side if they update their signatures rapidly some of this bad **** that makes it to the market might get detected if your not a 0 day installer .
I certainly wouldn't pay the subscription price though. That's likely just free money for everyone in the collection chain.

When your not on jump I think they charge you monthly on your t-mobile. The first 30 days are a trial. You have to go online to lockout.com and cancel the premium. Which I'm thinking about doing.
