was it called route 66? anyways, in the stock app, i can use the navigation fine. but in the custom roms, i have to supply the liscense code or voucher. does anyone know how i can get the code from the stock rom?
Hi I'm trying to decide which custom ROM to use to get off Google's grid on my smartphone.
I wonder which and how custom Android ROMs are better able to deliver privacy? To better evaluate that, I guess you need to seperate exactly which Google services monitor details on a typical ROM. Also, which of those services, if any, are used in popular custom ROMs like Cyanogen, anything AOSP /K/ MIUI etc. To prevent over-analysis, the bottom line is about finding a custom ROM that uses as few Google services as possible.
Do any of the above custom ROMs use more or fewer Google services? Is there is still a base of Google services which report back to Google regardless of it being custom? Is there any ROM built from the ground up (of Android open source)?
I hope this thread can find like-minded, respectful people and no critics, trolls, *****ness or 'noob' talk.

I am in exactly the same boat. I'm beginning my search on how to do this with my Nexus 7. That's how I got here. I am a noob and I did watch the "Noob Video". Hilarious! Any info I can find, I will post back here.
Hi All,
I am a Product Manager at Unwired Labs, a start up in India that provides cell and wi fi geolocation and gecoding services.
I am testing beta version of an android app and it would be extremely helpful to have some of my questions answered. I am looking to talk to app developers and get their inputs about the library.
A 5 minute call/email conversation will do.
We are a small company trying to do some big things and any help would be useful.
Alternately, one could also point me to other forums/groups where I could find helpful developers.
Thanks!

Hello,
I'm working for a telecommunications company in the UK, we are currently deploying a IMS / Volte solution, we have spoken to handset manufacturer vendors regarding the addition of our carrier configuration to support VoLTE, however this is proving difficult and long delays, I'm hoping someone is able to support us in editing or creating a new custom carrier configuration file with our specific parameters and settings,
We have access to various handsets, we have currently rooted a S9 and s9+ in the hope of creating these profiles but we can only view them, for example we installed EE UK CSC, but we can’t edit or add a new profile
Is anyone able to assist, your time and effort will be rewarded
Thanks, Regards
I feel for you, trying to get cooperation out of any of the manufacturers. One problem with what you're trying to do, though: Even if you were successful at modifying the rooted devices you have to accept your carrier IMS profile, that really won't help end users unless the manufacturer helps out. Whatever fix you would discover would no doubt require rooted access to the file system. That's something the vast majority of users won't be able/willing to do to apply the configuration.
I wish you the best. I can believe it's not easy to get them to help.
Thanks for the reply, it’s almost the chicken and egg scenario, we have completed installation of our IMS / VoLTE solution but need to test service, once we are confident on all the parameters and settings we need, we can provide this information to the manufacturers to add our carrier configuration to the OS, but the handset tech teams won’t be able to support until Q4 this year. Am I looking for a Google / Android developer for this?
Thanks, Regards

Ah, so then you're not looking to develop something for end users to deploy right now. You just want to get it working so you can tell the manufacturers what you need included in the stock OS. That makes way more sense. An Android developer would be useful, but mainly someone on the telecom side to know the parameters would be needed. It should just be editing stock configuration files, unless there's some weird authentication you need to do above and beyond the normal LTE stuff.
No. We're doing it in phases. We will allow inbound users on our network first. Then we'll open to our local customers after a period of time. We know what we need to configure to enable VOLTE, but we don't have access to those configuration files. Rooting obviously doesn't give enough access. Is there anyone online that would be able to support that you know off?

If there is, this would be the place to find them. Hopefully this is the forum. Sorry, I don't work for a manufacturer, or I'd help you out more directly.
BUMP, anyone able to support in this request. hoping to build a custom carrier configuration file to support a telecoms operator test VoLTE / IMS features
Thanks

I am interesting in this, i already pm you with my email . Let me know. thanks
If you know what files or folders you need to access, root does give you access. It sounds like you need to research some basic Unix commands and change permissions for the files/folders that you need to access. Root gives you full access to the entire system with super user (SU) privileges.
MIUI is really a gud rom as far as stability, battery life, network reception is concerned, bt their backdoor personal data delivery is a pain in the @$$.

#Does this really work, there r many among us that literally never use a single mi service e.g. mi cloud, miui account, mi find device etc.
Plz revert.
Thanks a ton.
Still waiting...
Anyone?? No one!
