[INFO] Face Recognition: 2nd security breach - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi Guys,
As you know that the first security breach was facing a picture in front of the phone and it will unloacked!!!!
The one i found today is:

so google how are you going to fix that???

It's not supposed to be secure. It's only as secure as slide-to-unlock.
But thanks for posting some pics of some hot twins.

You have no idea what face unlock is for apparently. Please refer to FAQ thread. This here should be locked or removed.

Tough crowd. Jeez...

OP did you really expect Google to make face unlock work for a person but not their identical twin?

Just check for a beard or lack thereof, the evil twin will have one.

Even if the phone can check the fuxkin DNA it wont't distinguish identical twins

Google have commented on this. Face unlock is a fun feature, NOT for security. This is why if you add certificates to your phone, you will no longer be able to use face unlock feature.

Man, if only the Galaxy Nexus came with a humour detection software as well as face detection software huh.

This.
People are acting like the CIA director is going to set up his phone using face unlock then lose his phone. Some hipster will find a photo of said CIA director on his iPhone, hold it to the GNEX and cause world war III with unfettered access to highly sensitive information.
Face unlock is more of a proof of concept and a neat-o feature.
It ends there. If you need real security, this cutsie feature is not for you.

people,really?
this is a joke... sjees get some humor.

Epic picture.. even more epic is my gf calls me panda too..........

Hmm.. this makes me sad face too as I used to call my ex (Randa) panda.. memories
It's funny how popular the nickname Panda is. I never realized.
We all got new devices recently, wife has a tablet also so she has not been on my case lately but Im still using a SGS.
Take it from a guy married for several years. Set up a date night really soon and dont touch your phone the whole time. Big time points to be earned!
Was it you or her that put the phone screen side down?

Face Unlock might have been removed in the future?

Just read this:
http://www.patentlyapple.com/patent...sence-detection-security-for-ios-devices.html
Fruit Company applied the patent last August 2010, long before ICS was released.
What would happen if this patent granted?
Note that prior art won't save Google, because the change to first to patent :

F*ck, I hate this patent thing especially done by this Fruit Company!

No, Google would have to be copying it exactly the way Apple does it. Apple is talking about 3D stuff.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Chill. Just chill. Its not as serious as you think.
It would be completely ridiculous if the fruit company were awarded that patent since patents are only supposed to be awarded for the non-obvious. This kind of implementation has long been obvious since bio-metric technology has been around for over a decade. This is just one spin / flavor of that.
Patent and copyright law is killing the US... just plain stupid.
face unlock is b.s. anyway. i tried it out and found there were times when it couldn't even register my face & had me enter in the password... that and yeah, it does seem to have difficulty telling if it's actually you in front of the phone or a picture of you.

Obviously you are doing something wrong since it works perfect every time I've used it to show off.

I love face unlock, but it clearly needs more refinement. I hope Google brings that soon, I'm already pretty anxious for the 4.0.3 update.

Has anyone seen John Connor?
Looks fine

The man who created it was the one who ran PittPatt and whom Google bought. The patent was approved in 2008 and filed in 2004.
Face unlock works great for me. Just take different captures in different lighting. Unless its pitch black I haven't had it fail, wearing a hat, hoodie, or glasses.

I setup face unlock from my waistline so I don't have to unlock my phone like a dingbat every time.

Face Unlock is a pretty old thing. There was computer software doing this already many years befor we had Android or iOS Devices. It's just another weird patent of Apple.
Even the way in the Apple patent to take the ratio of eyes, nose and mouth doesn't look new to me. I mean every crappy Webcam Software is doing this to recognize the parts of the face and do those weird big nose, big eyes, alien head and such effects.

Google Wallet Prepaid Card Down?

Woke up to find funds unavailable and user id couldn't connect.
I reset the google wallet app to see if that would fix it, now i can't re-add my prepaid card.
According to Droid Lifes Twitter others say its down as well.
https://twitter.com/droid_life/statuses/209673176773435392
Are u having similar issues?
Same here.
Same here
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
You're not alone. This morning I couldn't see my funds and when I tapped on the prepaid card it said that it couldn't connect to the bank or something, so I also reset the app and now can't add a new card either. Hopefully it'll be resolved soon. Just got the Nexus and Google Wallet is pretty sexy.

			
				
noticed it Saturday night, glad its not just me, i thought i bricked my security thingy..flashed a custom rom and back to stock oer the weekend...

I was bored enough to try.
When I called they confirmed it was down and they're currently "working on it."
Google Wallet has been down for at least 15 hours now. No response from Google on their Plus page or Twitter.
This is the service that they claim will replace our physical wallets?
1) Even if it was taken down intentionally for maintenance, there should have been a warning beforehand.
2) If this is unexpected downtime, they should've responded within 15 hours. It's a monday for Christ's sake, and I'm not aware of any US public holidays.
I'm going to be submitting this story to the tech blogs, and I hope you do the same. I've stuck by Wallet through all the negative press, but this episode demonstrates with absolute certainty that Google really aren't invested or interested in Google Wallet.

Too bad if it's fake. I was hoping the Turbo (and international variant) would remain an annual release.
