How to add root permission to some app by myself? That'd make the app start a root shell, but it still won't be used for anything. The app would still be accessing files through the normal Android API, not by feeding commands to that root shell. |

Can apps know where you are even without GPS? Any app that has Internet permission can potentially do IP geolocation. |

Can apps know where you are even without GPS? Turning off GPS prevents apps that have LOCATION_FINE from getting your precise location. They're limited to your approximate location without GPS. |

Can anyone tell me how to access the kernel on Android and change the default (root) password? If your device is not rooted, there is no valid password that allows access to the root account. If your device is rooted, then the "password" functionality comes from whatever root app you're using, such as Superuser or SuperSU. |

Unrooting Galaxy Nexus - dies when plugged in Oh, one other thing to try: on your phone's shutdown menu (the one you get when you hold the power button), is there a "reboot" option? CyanogenMod has one that lets you reboot directly into bootloader mode, and I think AOKP does too, though I'm not sure. That might work if the volume+power button combination doesn't. |
