I'm proud to present you DonkeyGuard, the first animal which protects your phone :good:. This application is a mod for the well known XposedFramework and does not work without it (In future it will be using Cydia as framework).
First I want to say thanks to every one which supported me in the past while developing this application, especially @HaSKdX who created the whole theme for my application (more later). Some of you already know me as the "PDroid2.0" guy and I got a lot of messages why I stopped supporting/ developing PDroid at all. This has several reasons and I will explain them later, if anyone wants to know more about this. I started developing this application for round about 3/4 year ago, but I haven't had much time to work on this application. Now it is in a pretty good alpha state where people can test it, so feel free to be the first
DonkeyGuard is an app, similar to PDroid2.0, PDroid and other applications which are known at this sector. I developed DonkeyGuard from scratch with all my experience I've made with PDroid. DonkeyGuard allows you a fine-grained tuning of access to your private data. It currently supports 41 restrictions which can be applied for every application. Specifically, it is a Privacy service provider which implements a set of modifications to the Android Framework to allow you to interact with applications which are trying to access your private data.
If you think that something isn't working as expected, please take the whole log from
the XposedFramework app (and in addition an extract of logcat) and open a new issue
at my GITHUB. In addition you
can post it here too.
@HaSKdX The person, who created the whole theme for my application:fingers-crossed: We worked a long time together and I want to thank you for all your great work
You can simply download the application from PlayStore and install it. Please note: Before you download/install/use the application, you need to read and accept the EULA. The XposedRepo is currently not supported anymore, just because the application reached the file-size limit.

I don't know if I will call it an "alternative". I developed PDroid2.0 before and this application is very similar, but a lot better (than PD2.0) . So, just try it and then decide if you like to use it or not
Thanks, also here: Please report how it works for you....
So, this is the first alpha version of DonkeyGuard with only the "basic" functionality. To all my users, testers and whoever is using this application: Please report how it works. Furthermore it is important for me how you "understand" the Graphical-User-Interface. If something is ambiguous, please do not hesitate to ask me.
If you want to report any errors or have feature requests, please visit me on Github and post it there.
At first run I have "Error: NoSuchServerAvailable".
About UI
In my opinion program is system software and UI must be more informational. In my small 800x480 screen of Galaxy S II I have 2,5 items, which I can configure. Buttons "Logs" "Settings" and "System" are small, but area with program icon and caption is too big. For what are you use transition effects? Your program is serious system software, but not "Angry birds".
Pdroid app was more compact and functional.
Will wait new versions of program and I hope I'll change xprivacy to your new application. As before, I can help you with russian translation.

The NoSuchServerAvailable exception will be thrown if the privacy service isn't available. This can only happen if you haven't activated the application inside the XposedFramework or forgot to reboot. The error should drop off after you reboot your device.
Well, I think this is a matter of opinion. You can simply change the transitions to "zoom in" as for example which is better known for a viewpager. It would help me if you can simply post a screenshot The application is not ready yet and all additional functionality e.g. search features aren't activated. For me it is important that the "core" (blocking permissions, on-demand-dialog) of DonkeyGuard works as expected
Some additional information: You can tap on the alphabetical indicator and then choose a letter (a-z). The app will automatically scroll to the position of your chosen letter.
Related the translation: Of course, I will init github for this

Good to see that the fix is working.
Well, these are features for management and of course really needed! But first I need some more users
who are willing to test the core functionality of the application on different devices. If that works, I will go on
an provide filters, batch operations, backup functionality, location picking, database encryption and so on. But
for now I would like to focus on a bug free core for most of the android devices and ROMs
Furthermore: If anything went wrong, please post the log from XposedFramework, that should help me to fix the bug
and open an issue at GITHUB.
Well, given the modification claims to be a security management system, and has unrestricted access to the device and data through Xposed, perhaps the fact it isn't open source is what's holding it back?
XPrivacy is fully open source, and therefore is able to be scrutinised. You placing an EULA on the program (those are basically unenforceable anyway) might be preventing people from actually deciding if it meets their needs or not?
" You may not decompile, "reverse-engineer", disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code for the Software Product."
If that's the case, and there's no source, how can anyone be sure it works? How can they trust it over an existing open source tool? Perhaps there is more interest in this, but maybe the general trend of distrusting closed source security tools (RSA, Dual-EC-DRBG) is going to hinder uptake?

Hi Collegedev. Good to see you back with another privacy solution. As an old PDroid user i heard some stuff about the discontinuation but never found anything official. Could you tell me about it or link to, pm if you prefer. I'm using another app now but still want to support you for PDroid/PDroid2.0 by helping you to get that special pizza I thought i read something like a pick and pay thing? if not the donate button will also work, I probably cant have these two apps installed at same time anyway.
Hey Kaizokan,
yes, PDroid is discontinued and not supported anymore, because of the complexity to support multiple devices/roms/architectures. Since hooking frameworks for android exist, it is a lot easier to develop such applications. I also think about releasing the code for this application to get more help from people who would like to contribute, because my spare time becoming less...
I am to based archi 1.7.18 android 4.3 . Gt i9300.
If I activate donkey guard in xposed my messages get messed up. I can't read any of my incoming messages. All my new messages come as blank text from "0".
Anyone else facing the same problem???

But only in alpha phase. I started porting DG to lollipop and getting a lot of errors. I guess Xposed needs some more time to get stable. Furthermore I detected several bugs (?) which I need to report...
First of all, thanks CollegeDev for the app. I installed xposed on Lollipop and downloaded DG from google play, it is crashing on launch and I submitted the report. I understand that xposed has just been made available for lollipop but do you have a rough idea when you will fix DG to work on xposed for lollipop? Many thanks! It's a shame that only 53 people pressed Thanks, this app is really useful. I was using openpdroid which I believe is based on your app, but the developer stopped supporting it. I'm very happy to see that you got back to making a nice privacy app.
Thank you for your comment. I started porting DG to lollipop yesterday. Some parts of the code won't work, especially it seems to be that some methods won't get hooked which is most likely a problem of Xposed. I will report this bugs and hopefully the developer of Xposed will get rid of it or tells me that it is my fault .
You guys are right, I also asked the developer few months ago if he is gonna release the source code... but I guess he has his reasons. Anyway, it's not a problem, since DonkeGuard has very few permissions, and you can always restrict it's web access via your favorite firewall... DroidWall, FireWall Plus etc.
I'm using DG alongside with a firewall, because DG can't block web access without Cydia, and Cydia for android is lame, so Firewall is always recommended and simple to use, after all, you can't trust one app for permissions and also for web access, just like on PC, stand alone firewall is better than a security bundle with AV
And as for DG on Lollipop - I also wonder when the developer will release updated version, All my xposed modules are fine on 5.0.2 except DG
I installed xpose framework in my bluestack and after that installed DonkeyGaurd and activated it from xpose. But now when I'm opening it is not working, giving error:

after opening donkey swipe it Left to right. You can see the UI instructor ticked. Untick that then it will not show the instruction again.
At first run I have "Error: NoSuchServerAvailable".
About UI
In my opinion program is system software and UI must be more informational. In my small 800x480 screen of Galaxy S II I have 2,5 items, which I can configure. Buttons "Logs" "Settings" and "System" are small, but area with program icon and caption is too big. For what are you use transition effects? Your program is serious system software, but not "Angry birds".
Pdroid app was more compact and functional.
Will wait new versions of program and I hope I'll change xprivacy to your new application. As before, I can help you with russian translation.
The NoSuchServerAvailable exception will be thrown if the privacy service isn't available. This can only happen if you haven't activated the application inside the XposedFramework or forgot to reboot. The error should drop off after you reboot your device.
Well, I think this is a matter of opinion. You can simply change the transitions to "zoom in" as for example which is better known for a viewpager. It would help me if you can simply post a screenshot The application is not ready yet and all additional functionality e.g. search features aren't activated. For me it is important that the "core" (blocking permissions, on-demand-dialog) of DonkeyGuard works as expected
Some additional information: You can tap on the alphabetical indicator and then choose a letter (a-z). The app will automatically scroll to the position of your chosen letter.
Related the translation: Of course, I will init github for this
