Thank you for the what???

OK so at the recommendation of one of the members I flashed U.K.E. Rom on to my phone. Kinda liking it but I got the oddest text this morning.
谢谢你的电话插孔一天。
Google translate says it's simplified Chinese and means "Thank you for the phone Jack"...
Is this a fluke or should I be worried?

Maybe it was built in to send to you when you flashed only One_love could be able to explain it cuz i got the same message when i ran U.K.E

Is your name Jack? Does the text show the number it was sent from? Where did you download your rom from (ROM Manager, SDX website, etc)? Do you have any apps that didn't come from the market?

I got the Rom from the sdx forum and I haven't installed anything that wasn't from the market. I do have the phone number and it's from a local number, that's what freaks me out the most. If this wasn't a fluke then anyone with this knowledge can get my info let alone could they call out of country on my account and all that stuff...

Wow very random if i must say. I have yet seen or heard of this. Im wondering if you have a rogue app messing with you two. Lets see if we can figure this out, what apps do the both of you have the same of? Ive yet to see this message to me or hear of it from others. And i can tell you that there is nothing written into this rom to send you that message. This is why im thinking its a rogue app. If we could get a list of the apps you both have that received this random message.

Sounds good. BTW, I called Sprint just to double check to see if they show any calls placed through my phone number or anything. The lady on the phone said it's possible but if someone did it wont post to my account for a few days, especially if they made any international calls.
I didn't figure there was anything scripted into the rom itself to do this, it's possible that it could be something rogue. It's also possible that someone with the skillz was just driving by and grabed my info from a wifi signal and texted me just to F with me.

and there's more room to put moah on my phone!!!!
This is the list as of the time I got the text. Sometimes I uninstall things like maps if I don't need it and what not.
And keep in mind, I'm not blaming anyone for what has or may happen. I'm not accusing anyone of anything. Just figured I'd see if this is just an odd ball spam from someone locally trying to troll me or what.

Wow that is odd as hell. I've been running and testing uke since before it was released and I've never had that pop up on me. Its def not something in the rom and I hope you guys find the app doing it. Good luck.

I think this is what's making me think it's just a fluke or a troll... I've been running these apps for a while now and haven't ever had a problem with them. I didn't even expect a comment from One_Love_420 either. VICODAN is the one that recommended the ROM to me so I wasn't going to just point the finger to the ROM anyways. I did have my Wifi running all night long (had the advanced setting setup to not put my wifi to sleep when my phone goes off). The only thing I haven't done yet is check to see what my logs say on my Linksys router (maybe he tapped my phone for internet).
I think it's just a fluke (or at least I hope... this could be an exspensive bill if this person was able to make calls from my phone or anything like that).

yeah its def an oddity. have you ran miui on it anytime recently and maybe there was residual mess from it and someone was still able to mess with you? or hell, coulda been someone texting the wrong person, i would think its just a fluke if youve been using the same apps for x amount of time and havent had this happen before.

One thing does come to mind when looking at your app list. Go sms pro is a china developed app and has a ton of permissions that i would never approve of, one being the ability to make calls. Check its permissons list on the market. A little much for an app imho.

I haven't tried Miui yet. I started with CM7 and wanted to get into somthing light (meaning less sprint stuff and being able to uninstall maps and stuff since I only use them once in a great while). I know I got a lot of GO stuff on it but I've just been tinkering with it since the kernal is running a bit more then just the 800 mhz on the cpu. Wanted to "test" out what this thing is capable of.
The bling is nice, the personalization of colors and stuff is cool and all... But I use this for business a lot and kinda like a rock solid machine that's as efficient as possible. I'm looking into other options of roms that are just plane Jane Android next. U.K.E. has been running nicely even with all the bling (minus go sms now I guess). Depending on how put off I am about no bling I might just go back to using U.K.E.

You should always check permissions of apps even from the market..Google doesn't keep track of apps published on the market and if they are malicious or not. It's up to users to report if something funky is happening. That's why I un-installed GoSms a long time ago when they first added all of those strange permissions to the updated versions. It was even causing people to have issues with phone calls. Read through market comments and check permissions Always with any app even if it's just a update to a new version. The devs of GoSms are very un-responsive also when people ask them about the permissions and report issues. If you really want to get down to the bottom of something also run a logcat and see what the app is doing.

Because it's based on cm7?

Solid indeed. Outside of that odd text I haven't had any other issues. I haven't tried to track down who's phone number that is Incas it's a friend just messing with me and I haven't had any charges posted to my account so... Might have just been someone messing with me.
Sent from my Evo Shift using XDA.

It's definately not a rom related issue. Download Addons Detector from the market. This will help you to track down suspicious apps intalled on your device.

So I got rid of all of the GO products and I'm just running the AWD stuff that came with the rom. Only thing I realy miss is the SMS stuff. I looked at handsent and their permissions are the same (for the most part) as go sms.
Any thoughts on an sms program? I'm looking for character count and more info like sent date/time displayed without going into message details.

To be honest, I think it's accurate because my devices didn't show any programs acting suspiciously. A lot of apps are using permissions that would be appropriate for them, however, if they're sending data to suspicious sources, like Facebook app sending my data to some server in middle-of-nowhere Russia then I'd double check and I don't think the app has this kind of feature (not from what I can tell from a 10 minute use of the app). However, with the results I got from my Galaxy S3 and my Nexus 10 I'd say that the app is detecting that my apps are using only the permissions I've granted them. Beyond that, I can't say for sure--not without using a third-party service like http://mobilesandbox.org/

Windows 10 can be tricky. I've had issues in the past issuing any commands to DL mode with Windows 10. This dates back to using my G2. I got it to work this last time trying, but you might have to use another OS if you can't get it to work.

Yeah they blocked it on lollipop thinking that it will improve the performance in exchange of multitasking but it didnt achieved any of theme i dont know why didnt they disabled it before lunching the update :\

But is supposed to be 1.5G of RAM, why is just 330 mb not 500 mb?
Sent from my SM-G800H using XDA Free mobile app

I actually think Samsung does that with every update to artificially age the device to push sales of newer devices.
Though it might as well be part of internal testing at Samsung that was forgotten. Only time and future updates will tell.
Conspiracy theories aside, thank you very much for the trick. Really helpful. Does debug mode use more battery though? I would imagine the system log going crazy with this option.

Thanks for your relentless efforts in supporting our less popular G800H. I have been testing this fix from the day you posted it and I feel that the phone has become more responsive and fast. Free RAM is close to 500 always and there is no impact on the battery drain as well. Keep up your good work. I also noticed that setting Debug Level to Mid also restores RAM.

Edit: If anyone else is wondering. Found the solution here: https://us.community.samsung.com/t5/Galaxy-S10/Pop-up-notification-bubles-S10/m-p/472476#M1495

Does anyone know why it takes 5+ minutes to download a 40mb app. I did a factory reset and the way things are looking I'm looking at about 6hrs to download all my apps. My WiFi is 400mbps so it's pretty fast. I tried clearing the cash for the playstore and play services to no avail. Any ideas?

Same experience here. Did some tests in comparison to my Oneplus 6 which is at least two times faster. I tried with different S10+'s, same results. It's a nice phone, but you have to be patient

Thanks for starting this thread !
My question is, is there anyway to use the Edge lighting to show when charging? I miss the physical LED that indicated when the phone was charging!

You can use the app Always On Edge for that purpose.

Not that I know. I know that good Lock adds functionality to edge lighting but not that function in particular. Maybe someone else could chime in. On a brighter note I saw in a Samsung forum that Samsung was working on giving the lights around the camera some of those led functions. It didn't come from Samsung officially so who knows. That being said RIP phisical LED!

Hi, when I update or download apps from play store, there's no progress in the notification. But apps do get updated/downloaded.
S10+ Chinese SD version.
Anyone has any insights? Thanks in advance.

Well that's normal behavior. The only progress bar you'll see is in the app store itself and if you happen to be using one of the apps being updated it might force close. I'm not sure sure what the question is. Maybe a bit more details in regards to what you're trying to accomplish might help. ?

Hi All
Im experiencing a drop in data connectivity once in a while, be it with browser, fb, ig, youtube etc. BUT my 4G icon is still available and present at the navigation bar with full service reception.
I called my provider if there is any issues on their end but they said all is fine up and running.
Anybody having this issues or isit my baseband faulty or some kind? Snapdragon hardware btw. I have hard reset it by using the buttons but still no use.
Im an avid android geek having 3 4 phone changed in a year but this is by far the most frustrated device yet
Please help do i need to turn off some settings or what not?
Hopefully its just a software glitch or something it would be a hassle to send in for investigation.

Did you try a "Reset network settings"? That would probably be my first step in troubleshooting.

AR emoji with non-Samsung keyboards
Am I blind? Or am I just not seeing how to use the AR emojis in other SMS apps (tried both Android Messages and Chomp SMS)? I'm not a big fan of the stock SMS app.

No need to remove it. After latest update, deleting old scan and setting a new one it works perfect even with "prebuilt" protector.

Are you giving it a bit of time? I noticed that it's kind of a crapshoot at first but now after 2 weeks it's like 98%

Depending on the keyboard you're using just press + or whatever you do if you're adding a picture and select the AR emoji you want from your album. Is that not working for you?

I can do that but I cannot find in gallery, or anywhere else, the AR emojis. It only seems to work in the stock Messages app as it puts a dedicated button for this purpose in the input box.

Are you sure it's the stock messaging app or is it the stock keyboard?
