i was trying out orbot and i kept stumbling at the part where it was setting up transparent proxy. i googled and found that it is possible that my ROM and/or kernel does not support iptable lookup or something.

Am on VR 3.0 and ninphetamine 2.13.

Anyone can advise?

Can you put some videos/pics? And what Custom Kernels supports?

Oh and, is it based on ICS or GB kernel?

VR supports IP tables I use DroidWall which also requires this.
You could use Orweb which uses Orbot directly and does not require using the root options.

Also AFAIK whilst Tor hides your location it doesn't guarantee anonymity. Also , I remember reading that SSL exit points can be subject to Man in the Middle attacks - though I think maybe that this is an issue which is being worked on.

I was working on VRMod today :) But I don't push until I fix something :p

Today I was fixing building on my new install on my ssd, as android doesn't like gcc4.7, so needed to add a 4.4 install as well, and set it up for building android only :)

LPG is giving me a boner over LP8.
Anyone that has given it a good under the hood look, winkwink.

As far as UI responsiveness goes it's a lot snappier then LP8, this goes for both plain CF-Root or Siyah Kernel.
(I have been on LP8 for months on now, other builds gave me grievances)

    VillainROM 3.0 for Samsung Galaxy S 2

    So that old thread was long... Very long... It had good memories, but it's time to move on to a new thread, as 10k posts is just too much, and there are some more changes this time round. First off, it's as usual, a CWM flashable zip file. But, in a slight change of direction in light of Ninpo and Netarchy's Ninphetamine kernel being more complete, version 2.0.5 is now included. That is newer than the version released in the thread, but it will be updated in due course.

    So for now, here's what's new in Version 3.0

    - Fully deodexed
    - Introduction of Ninphetamine kernel into the ROM (version 2.0.5 with BLN etc) - Note that BLN doesn't work with the stock SMS app, but Handcent is fine. I will look at ways to trigger BLN from the Messaging app later
    - Install the BLN app from the market to use this
    - Removal of Diginotar root certificates from the trusted store, given they are about as secure as a paper bank vault.
    - All the usual stuff, although VRTweaks will be added from scratch again, since this seems a newer and better base.
    - Re-addition of SIP since Samsung thinks you should be deprived of it.

    Additionally, this is a way to try out the official KI3 ROM, without the bootloader being touched, thus allowing the USB jig to continue to working. To re-iterate, VR never flashes radios or bootloaders, so is safe. Stock ROMs, and other custom ROMs which are ODIN flashed, or indeed ZIPs, can and do sometimes flash these things without telling you. Just be aware - Samsung knows about the USB jig resetting the counter, and is on it...

    Install procedure, and other details to come in following posts.

    Contributing VRTweaks to VillainROM

    Iff you want your tweak in VillainTweaks (with full credits etc) then please PM LennyUK with a description, screenshot if you have one to hand and a direct link (xda attachment, dropbox or your own server) No file hosts please.

    We will add them to VRTweaks, so users can install them without having to download files to their phone. Likewise, if users find nice tweaks, let Lenny know :)

    VillainROM Installation Instructions

    To follow these instructions we presume you already have access to Clockworkmod recovery, and are able to put the zip file onto the SD card, and flash it.

    If you are coming from a ROM other than VillainROM 1.2 or above, then you should carry out a full wipe. In fact, you should be carrying out a full wipe anyway, but it's not strictly 100% necessary if you are just coming from the previous version.

    Coming from Another ROM

    Ensure CWM recovery is available, do a CWM/nandroid backup and titanium backup, and put the zip onto the root of the internal SD.
    Enter CWM, carry out a factory reset, and cache wipe, and flash the ROM via "Install zip from SD" option.
    Reboot the phone into VillainROM, bearing in mind the first boot may take some time on the boot animation.

    To use BLN

    Ensure you are using the included Ninphetamine kernel, and install this app from the market (free, paid version with more features available)

    IF YOU THINK THE ROM ISN'T ROOTED, INSTALL SUPERUSER FROM THE MARKET. IF YOU WANT CWM APP, GET IT FROM THE ATTACHMENTS LIST

    Super happy fun times

    OK, so I think it's time to explain what this is about. It's born from the idea that came about on IRC, for a way to make a theme once for a ROM, rather than have to adjust it for each incremental update for a given ROM or ROMs.

    As a user, you don't need to know much - just flash this zip like a regular zip, and you'll get your theme running. But you should be able to apply themes to any device, ROM, and version of the ROM, without it causing adverse effects. That means less time spent by themers making the original theme, and less time spent modifying it constantly for new versions of ROMs.

    As a themer? Well, here is the information:

    • Inside the zip, in the vrtheme folder, you can create a folder called "system" and "data". The former is required, the latter is not required unless you wanted to theme a data app (strongly not recommended, unless you know the app will be there on every phone)
    • Inside the system or data folder, create a subfolder "app", and in these, make subfolders named EXACTLY after the APK name. For example, to theme the Browser, you need a folder called "Browser.apk". It must be correctly capitalised.
    • Within there, place the files you require for your theme, in the relevant locations. So most PNGs will be in res/drawable-hdpi/. You can put in xml files too (those which are not in resources.arsc), if you compile them via apktool, and extract them with a zip tool.
    • In the vrtheme folder, as well as system and data folder, one called "raw" can exist. Within here, you can place files to be copied verbatim to the ROM (for example, modified JAR files). Note that using this may make the theme device dependent (read WILL make it device dependent)
    • And that's about it. :)

    Features
    • Will modify APKs in a ROM, without changing signatures, and can be used on any ROM where the filenames of themed files is the same.
    • Should not need updated between versions of a ROM
    • Zipaligns all APKs before installation
    • Stores a backup of all files being modified in /cache/vrtheme-backup/
    • Requires no coding abilities or editing of files - just drag and drop :)
    • Can copy "raw" files, though at risk of not working on other devices (well, let's face it, it won't work on likely a slightly different ROM, so this feature is not recommended or encouraged)


    Credits

    Doctorcete for the original idea in a discussion on IRC

    EULA

    Nothing evil or complicated - just a few little things. You should not charge for access to this code. That includes a zip containing this, or a derivative of it. So please don't sell themes using it. That's not particularly cool. If you want to use it commercially for some reason, get in touch with us.

    If you spot a bug or error, and find a fix, please reply in this thread and let us know, or post the changes you made. If you're going to distribute the changed version, it is expected that you share the change made by contacting us, or posting it here.

    Finally, don't be a douche - don't rip this off or call it your own, and leave all headers and comments identifying the origin of the code in place. Don't rename this to match your ROM or "team" name - it's not cool, and it's not yours to go and adjust. I chose to make this a readable "plain" script, but can easily obfuscate and encrypt it if you want to be a douche.
