Sunshine app malware - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I paid for the app and app did the job. After few months they sent me warning message that they will brick my device. The reason is their problem with receiving the money. My device didn't get bricked but it gets a lot slower(laggy and unstable). That can only be done with malware inside app and that is illegal.
ARHD 50.2
Skydragon 1.6.5
SleamBeam(latest)
With all these roms i had the same problem. All was unstable(system crash) and laggy. Installation was clean.
I will sue them.
Did anyone had similar problem with sunshine app?

No such problem.
You issue I believe is more on firmware matter.

I don't get it, if you paid, why would they be threatening you? Or am I misunderstanding something?

Before you start threatening back at them, did you even contacted the developers ?
And why do you feel the need to express it in this way ? I have NEVER seen anyone here the past YEAR that reported this.
Think about it before you post please

The brick threat that I gain is in my mail. Firmware was upgraded to the latest sense 3 months before the mail i received. There was no problem then.

You don't want to use app which can be after used to "brick" your device. It is not mine concern for they money transaction failure. I don't own that money anymore. That is a reason for expressing it.

XDA is not the place to "fight" over this ! We don't care what issues you have with sunshine. About software and phone problems we can assist but we ain't here to help you battle some legal issues or emails you get from them.
Take it up with them, contact them and solve this (if the mail is truly from them, which i doubt for a little)
You better think and get your facts first before you start accusing sunshine containing mallware !
Cheers.

I don't fight. I wanted to express that inside app malware. If you don't care do not respond. I asked people who care.

How do you know this, have you contacted the devs ? I think personally you came here first to kick some doors before you even took this to the devs of sunshine.
I would withdraw some comments until you have some answers from them and know what you are talking about. This is absolutely a one side story.
Good luck !

Mr Hofs is free to express his opinions. Why do you think you have the right to express yours, and then tell him he cannot?
In any case, I see a mod locking this thread in 3 . . 2 . . 1 . .

Without threat i wouldn't blame anyone. With it I got good reason for it. Even if I wanted to cheat them they can not use built in malware app for insurance. There is court for that.

I'm not arguing, you are threatening here to sue them without even contacting them. In all your responses you not once said that you sent them an email back with an explanation. So coming in here and saying what you say is not justified.
My 2 cents and i will leave it at that.

This is a free community. I express myself and asked. I did not insult anyone. I gained the threatening mail and I wanted to share it with xda members. As I get impacted after receiving the mail I said that i will visit the court. I don't see any problem with that.

No, wrong.
MM Sense firmware didn't exist 3 months ago.
If that was the last time you updated firmware, then your firmware is not current.

Then why don't you post your getvar data, and see if we can actually help; instead of blaming sunshine which is probably completely unrelated.

I will. The reason for blaming is threat that they will brick my device. This is not blaming without arguments.
Let me tell you this most "plastic":
-I upgraded firmware when it came out
-I was on skydragon rom 1.6.0. (before new year)
-I had no problems
-I received mail after a weak from installing Skydragon
-After mail I gain unstable device
-Reinstalling rom did not help
-Tried lollipop roms and have the same problem

1) there is no official release dates for GB
2) downloading apps from 4shared is illegal, android is susceptable to malware, recently there was a big virus scare at applanet, another pirate apps site, so not only are you breaking the law, putting your personal information and device at risk, but also the future of android, why would a dev continue to waste there money and time developing apps for android, when people like you are stealing from them? they will just move to ios or windows phone .....

That's just BS in my ears, if you're not gonna download anything illegal why ask about what might happen to your device if you did and how will you ever end up in a situation where you got a problem out of downloading illegal .apk's if you're not planning to?
How I see it, is that you just hoped it would be safe to download illegal .apk's why else ask?
If that's not the case you've learned absolutely nothing of use since you'll never be in a situation where you've downloaded any illegal stuf and hence useless info...
And no you're not a thief untill you've actually do the download, but you come off as one who thinks about it or is tempted to do it...
Till now no one answered me about my question only judging and insulting me, is that how you work in this forum, judging people while everyone of you have something he made that worth to be judged about, thanks anyway, sorry for asking anything, thanks for this bad treatment. thanks a lot.

Read the posts again then, your questions where answered a few times and yes you'll get judged when you come off as a person who would download illegal .apk's instead of paying for them.
And please stop acting like a victim it just doesn't suite anybody...
Will say this you might think about how or what you ask in the future to avoid miscommunication/understandings...
Ohh and by the way didn't want to insult you at all, just saw your post as BS and had to call you on that...
To answer your 2. question there will always be a risk downloading ripped software from som file host/sharing page as there is with any other OS... So if you choose to download it will be at your own risk and you might get hit by karma on the way...

Great stuff, had a blast reading these I totally agree with Androhero, ghostofcain and Dousan. There is absolutely no point in asking such stuff if you haven't planned to do so in the future. Preparing yourself for a situation that would never happen, according to da_omens writing, is a total waste of time yours, theirs, mine, everyones. And playing the part of a huge victim here...don't hate the player, you know how it goes Oh and seems to me that you got the most appropriate answers to your questions that one could expect on those matters. Just in case you are just trolling, good luck with that!

Ahhhh yes we all like to edit our signatures and put in images or text about phones that we do not own and then we like to post in forums of phones we don't own. Well surprise I own a SGS3 (Not just 1 but 4 in my house) and I guess because the area I live in is so far advanced I have never had this "lockscreen when busy" happen because people from my planet all have CALL WAITING or VOICE MAIL which would be why I posted my initial reply to you.

hate to break it to ya bud,
but we have an "international law" by the UN and we also have "state laws" by all other countries which, petitions cannot have jurisdiction over all countries since this is the internet and whatever there is in the internet needs verification,
in case of a legal cross-examination how can you justify to samsung the validity of every petitioning member? through what means?
this will just junk your case in the international tribunal,
don't get me wrong,
you have a bold idea,
but likewise online petitions have a failure rate of 97%

Probleme with S-off

Hello guys,
I have problem to make my M8 s-off. I put driver adb and i start with Firewater, he worwork, hé open first bottle, then he write "you have been parched by HTC. So, if i can't put S-off, i can't upgrade my firmware, and i'can't improve my phone to new version of viper. Also, i think when lolipop arrive i'can't improve also ..... Sad.
Do some one have a solution for that and does some one work on this problème problem.
ThanThankr for you're answer.

What if I don't have money to spend on software that 'unlocks' my phone? It used to be free with firewater and now people that couldn't know HTC is going to fix fw have to pay 25$ to allow full customization to their phones? BS.
Any other ways without this paid stuff to go s-off...?

Your phone costs $700 stock. Is $25 really too much to ask for to s-off and give you full access and to mod to your hearts content?
That being said, do you really need s-off?
Do you really need it?
S-on will protect you.

I have two options with s-on: either somehow find an old ROM for my old firmware or bear with the 2+ minutes boot time. So yeah I really need it.

Well, if you REALLY need it, pony up the $25. If it is something you REALLY need, Then $25 isn't too much to ask for.

I understand and I wouldn't be all sore about this if everyone either got it for free or paid the price. Since, as I said, there are people that got away with firewater before the patch, it's a bit unfair from my point of view.

Good for you guys when you work on your own and 25$ is nothing but pocket change, not so here in my, you could say, third world country...

I'm going to repeat this.
Do you REALLY NEED S-Off? S-On is a better choice unless you want to downgrade your firmware or get into settings that I can guarantee you don't want to touch with what I assume is your limited knowledge with the /system partition

I never said anything about it being pocket money here, and i am certainly not here to discuss a third world country. Everybody has his reasons why they do or simply can't afford it.
This whole type of discussion has been done several times now and it doesn't change the situation one bit unfortunately.
So i would say stop thinking and writing about it here as it's not helping you at all (not saying you can't give your opinion but this always ends the same way)
Get the money for s-off or stay s-on ! That's the only option you have.
Well you guys just went full on me. Sorry for 'spamming' the topic and have a good one.

Snapdragon root ever possible?

So I got a great deal from sprint about half off a S20u And I jumped thinking I'd be able to root it. it's already been 30 days and I'm going to return the device since I thought it would be able to be rooted. will a root ever be available. What device can I purchase from a US carrier that is able to be rooted and remove the bloat.

Don't hold your breath waiting for Samsung to offer an unlocked bootloader on any US variants. There are no US Carrier Branded or US Unbranded devices which can be unlocked. If you want no bloatware then the US Unbranded device is an option but if you need root you'll have to consider a Snapdragon International or Exynos Global variant. On these devices Carrier Aggregation and Warranty Repair would be challenging at best.
Dose one plus make devices that ship with unlockable bootloader?

Will the bootloader be unlocked in the future, is that a possibility, haven't been on the forums in 7-8 years. This phone is incredible, but the bloatware makes it useless kills battery can't disable apps. Someone help im over 30 days and don't know if I wanna return. I'm paying $15USD/MONTH FOR 18 MONTHS with buyout for $250USD so it's quite an offer to refuse. But I need root access and a custom rom on THIS baby!

The only one who can answer this is a well placed Samsung Executive, certainly not a CSR. No one has a crystal ball in this regard but I doubt it's going to happen anytime soon. Bloatware is the downside when you acquire a Carrier Branded Device and the $$$ you saved lose their value in the long run. Nowadays most carriers offer decent pricing on month to month prepaid without a long term commitment. Better off IMHO to wait a few months for price drops and feedback before purchasing any device. Saving a couple hundred on a smartphone you really weren't suited for doesn't add up.

So, your entire post was to show YOU have root, but not to provide any information at all on how you did it...when OP (and others, myself included) would like to know how it's done?
....thanks for nothing...

point is to show its absolutely possible. And I cannot post something that A, isnt my method to post and B, its not allowed to be posted on xda. So take it how you want doesnt matter to me.

Wow. Disrespecting elliwigy is not good. That guy has provided things for the public in the past and thats how you do him? Its because of people like you that xda gets tainted. Hell I wouldn't release it.

Who are you, his girlfriend? Go away.
To me it just seemed like a post bragging about him having root when others can't get it and obviously wanna know to do so. But if he can't or won't share how he achieved it, then whatever...it is what it is. But nowhere did I see him say he needed you to defend him, especially AFTER he already responded.
I'm done with the topic now though... moving on...

just because someone achieves something and let ppl know it is possible but cant provide details for understandable reasons such rules is not in any way bragging about anything.
I dont make the rules on here, in fact I support the rules and enforce them even considering I am a moderator.
Just because someone doesn't want to tell you details (because its simply not allowed) doesn't give you the right to judge people and post negatively about them in public. If you have any issues with me or anyone else I suggest you send them a PM next time.
Showing people that it is possible gives hope to those who feel it is imppssible and hopefully encourages them to keep at it.
I have no reason to lie to anyone and as you can tell uf you did any research on my past activities/posts you should see that every time I achieved root I posted freely to XDA so everyone could take advantage of it. So hopefully you understand if I could post publicly I would have already done so.
I did try to help people out and had them PM me and was advised not to do so even via PM because it is a paid service of which selling these types of services are not allowed on XDA. It is a paid service because the means to unlock the bootloader requires a purchase from a third party. There is no way to provide a "free" method as well as said service is device specific so there is no universal method and each unlock is tied to one device.
Think of it similar to those websites that offer sim unlocks. They are paid services tailored to one specific device. Paid services are not allowed on XDA since typically people use these methods to profit and in the past there have been a number of shady schemes hence why rules were formulated.
I hope this clears things up and you refrain from name calling and negatice remarks to people such as your last comment I quoted.

Instead of complaining take the initiative and hit someone up on telegram that you know has done this and im sure they would be glad to guide you too the proper place. Like elliwigy said it’s against xda rules to post such stuff here so why complain about it here. There are threads in s10 and s20 threads with people posting stuff for US unlocked bootloader phones. Hit those people up on telegram or outside of xda because people want too abide by the rules of xda and xda does not want this stuff posted on their forums.
