iPhone theme -very easy to install/use and most important download :)

I don't know if I am breaking any laws of this forum - if so, I would ask moderators and admins to delete this post ASAP.
I am not inventor or maker of this - I just found it somewhere on the internet and figured to share with my Wizard family here.
It shows very good iPhone look a like skin...
Try it out for yourself and let us know what was your experience.
PS. Read me file is a MUST to read!!!

Not sure I understand what this thread is all about? It seems to have been posted today (or have I got this wrong?) but points to software which has been being used for months and referred to in various threads?
Is there something I am missing here or have you actually published an .ini file somewhere which lets users use all those icons (by pointing the iTunes icon to windows media player etc)? Or have you managed to get the sking to run on start up or have you managed to get the slider to hog less memory?
Please tell us what is going on in this thread!

Sims 3: Crashes due to insufficient memory

I've gotten this message about three times so far while playing Sims 3:
"Heap 2 out of memory" allocating 40 bytes but only 128 available (36 LFB). Increase icf setting . . ."
Anyone else get anything like that?

Ive gotten this warning several times i have been doin research on how to increase icf setting and it said it was sum advanced stuff and it sed it cood ruin your rom but it wasnt necessarily for the vibrant i think it was more of a computer thing idk but i want to increase memory so i can play more soon

Here's a pic and video of the crash from the Tmo forums:

I pretty much can't buy/move anything without this happening so it's rendered the game practically unplayable. Hopefully a dev here can tell us what we need to tweak.

I think the above poster is trying to promote a site, its not even fully up and running, and i see nothing as to a fix for anything on the site, unless someone else see's something I dont

The one thing i have done is every-time i buy something, or move something i save my game, for me it usually happens if it try to buy 3 things in a row, so i now buy, save and buy,save...and when it crashes at-least my last save has the prior thing i bought. Its not a great way to play, but its all i can figure out until someone smarter than me comes up with a fix.

I haven't event installed the game yet so sorry I am of no help. Though I still find it funny that they promote a game that does not work.

Another proof: Apple is spying on you!

Ok, this ain't really a developpement post [sorry for that!] but I'm sure that, like for me, it will makes you real glad to be an Android user.
I kindly invite your to read this thread:
http://technaute.cyberpresse.ca/nou...urdhui-sur-cyberpresse_267_article_ECRAN1POS2
it is in french, but if you like to call yourself a dev, then I'm sure you know how to use a webpage translator .
In short: iphones and ipad are kepping unsecured data of all your geo-localisation on your phone and any computer that you synch to.
Isn't this hughe and nice of them !!??
So attention all of you cockold of this world, Apple with all it's kindness is making your life easier to confirm your status.
hehehe!

Big writeup today on Tech Republic as well. If iOS was open source they could rip it out like when Sprint CIQ was ripped out of the Epc 4G. Thanks K0nane!

You gon be disappointed:

Is that true? Does anyone know where is that database stored in Android?
And even if this data is being recorded, wouldn't it be possible to fix it as Android is open source?

Its stored on google's servers and yes you can turn this off on the android so none of the applications can track you! Killing your gps/3g/and data means they cant track you there are even anti gps apps that will tell them your in some other country. So just because some apps can doesnt mean they always do like on iOs. Its all about what apps you have installed really and what they're doing the easiest way to see this is with adb....adb logcat command while your phone is plugged in usb. Youll see google services running calling on your gps location and data collection you can see the code its plain as day!
Heres an old ss i had of what it looks like!↓↓↓

What the guy said below me is not true but hey whatever you want to believe... They store your data because its worth money plain and simple...
Its worth money to marketing and analytical firms! Google knows more about you than YOU do!
They know your darkest secrets whatever you typed into google they know...
They've even developed software to collect and categorize all of it... So saying that Google is the devil LoL

S8 - Strange software

Hi there, just purchased a new S8 today form an Asian electonics market. Seems to have some form of modifled XFINITY mobile software on it as the phone boots with the XFINITY logo and the carrier says XFINITY even though I am on a local network.
I have posted some info below on the software version but would be usfull to see if anybody had seen a version like this before and if they had any issues with it.
Happy to post any other details if it helps

Download Phone INFO(Samsung app) from play store and it will have more info and also find out exact model #. By the screenshot I see it says G950U and it seems to be US model.

Thanks guys, see below for screenshots from the app:
Seems to look fine, but curious what is tricking the phone to work with another sim but still displaying XFINITY as the carrier.

Looks like you bought a phone that was originally from Xfinity Mobile(us carrier). Pics aren't loading (might be my phone tbh), so can't say much more lol.

SOLVED [sm-g95ou] Default lock screen // cannot get past // not FRP // please help

I switched from sprint to T-Mobile. They screwed up and let us keep our old phones and did a discount for the hassle. I figure I don't need 2 S8's so I would just sell it. Welcome to my nightmare.....
So I factory reset the phone to get all my data off, I did this through the settings menu. No issues the phone reset. It was at the beginning new phone screen so I just left it.
The phone is at a password screen and I have maybe 5 passwords at most that I use various combos of, none of these work. I do some searching online and find out how to get into certain menus and do resets, and re-flash the stock rom. Even after those it wants a password.
I then think I'll just use find my phone with google and unlock it. Well it is a sprint phone and I have T-Mobile now so it has no connection, and I can't get past the password to get to the wifi settings. So google says it can't find my phone.
I contact Samsung and since it’s been less than a year they say they will help. I send in the phone and they send me it back with the crack on the back of the phone fixed and nothing else. I called and they said they have record of me asking for help with a password problem. I then ask if I can send it back and get that taken care of and they said it would cost 150$ because they fixed the phone......huh?
I really just want this password off the phone. At this point it’s a matter of I am more curious about finding a way to get it off the phone than selling it. I’m also open to all ideas. Taking it apart, flashing something third party on it.
If you need pictures I will get them up shortly. Or a video. At work currently, so I can probably reply in a timely manner. If you need more info please ask and I’ll try and get whatever you need
Thanks in advance
EDIT 1 - PICS

I chose not to connect to the wireless network after setting it up and there are no longer any locks....no idea what that was about.
