I used chinese version iRoot2_2.0.6_141122_1811_1000_r.apk
and it intalled chinese root (com.mgyun.superuser in /system/app/irootsu.apk), but I installed superuser from koush using fdroid and it replaced it ok

M-HORSE N9000W
Edit: look here http://sesionesfrikis.blogspot.com.es/2015/02/n9000w-malware-finally-found.html
I received this new phone, and everything seems ok
Rooted with RoomMaster SU v2.0.8
http://www.mgyun.com/romastersu
After that, I made titanium backup from previous phone: Whatsapp, Telegram...
and everything ok
With titanium backup app I removed unwanted apps: Facebook Msn, yahoo, ...
Du Speed Booster, APUS Launcher, PlayApp
I see "Cooee launcher S4" and I am not sure if it is malware
I installed Nova Launcher, and Security Lock Screen, but I want to be sure if I can remove this launcher without side effects: in my previous phone there were some situations where previous launcher was started ...
After several days, I see some apps installed automatically... MALWARE!!!
Some of them (I think some of the removed also, like Du Speed Booster or something similar, about battery http://forums.androidcentral.com/general-help-how/365217-random-apps-keep-installing-themselves.html )
ShareIt: cc.taosha.toolbox.shareit (/data/app/cc.taosha.toolbox.shareit-1.apk)
Baidu Browser: com.baidu.browser.inter (/data/app/com.baidu.browser.inter-1.apk)
Avast detects shareit as a trojan, and Kinguser (com.kingroot.kinguser) as potentially unwanted.
There are two possibilities for me: Cooee Launcher S4" or may be king root
I see /system/app/cooee_note3_20131218.apk
Googling it some people suggest to do a factory reset... but it won't work, as it comes by default...
http://answers.informer.com/variations/663134/how-to-uninstall-cooee-launcher-s4/
http://www.techsupportquestions.com/2411/uninstall-launcher-malware-internal-storage-android-phone
¿but wich one? CooeLauncher is a system app, and removal seems to be dangerous (after nova install, I can make a backup with Titanium backup, and there is a /system/app mover app in Fdroid, but by making it user app instead system may not work). In the other hand, kinguser is started initially (it can be seen with SD Maid), and so it could make it.
I am going to remove kingroot, and after that check for some time. Kingroot can be installed again with romastersu if I need it...
One of unwanted apps is in chinese, as Romastersu ...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cc.taosha.toolbox.shareit
The others
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.baidu.browser.inter
One of the worst things: these unwanted apps are not only installed but also downloaded? at any time, I think that consuming bandwidth and bytes... but I am not able to identify anything in android traffic usage, as apps are small.
Update: after one day without kinguser, no more unwanted apps. I decided to install iRoot (iRoot2_2.0.6_141122_1811_1000_r.apk) which also install kinguser, and with app remover I noticed that
root@android:/storage/sdcard0/mgyun/root/app # ls
co.mc.tools.batterybooster_1_542038_ad65a2f81e50808a9aec27affde98caa.apk

com.salyangoz.automessage_6_471851_6d32d80f002752c9ad71ceb96d14dcfe.apk
So chinese root tool includes apks ... and maybe the apks are not downloaded, but installed when kinguser, which starts automaticaly with phone, decides so.
These apk are asociated with the main menu
I made another test, and installed RomasterSu_2.0.9_141226_1816_1000_r.apk (I deleted 2.0.8 version), and it did not put apks in the same folder.
I installed again iRoot2_2.0.6_141122_1811_1000_r.apk and I noticed the same folder is initially empty, so maybe it downloads it later, and it install them ... I can confirm the apps are installed without any prompt / user confirmation.
I should try to change kinguser by another su utility like superSU, but it seems not to be trivial: downloading from google play it does not install properly, it says su binary has to be udpated and it is unable to update it, so superSU finally does not work.

Recovering files from android with broken and unresponsive screen
Mi "new phone" (August) is broken: my daughter was playing with it and it felt to the floor, and screen is broken.
It charges, usb works, buttons are working, but I am unable to even unlock screen, so I am unable un activate it as usb storage.
I have adb access, so I need to recover just files from internal memory; contacts and calendar are in gmail, so the info to extract are just some photos.
Instead of using adb pull / adb push for each file, ... searching I found this
http://qtadb.wordpress.com/download/
After that, I discovered that:
Unlock movements:
input swipe 100 700 600 300
Entering PIN:
input tap 300 500 is "5"
input tap 300 600 is "0"
input tap 100 500 is "4"
input tap 400 600 is "enter"
input keyevent 4 is "return"
input keyevent 82 is "menu"

With that I have been able to remove screen lock configuration...

.org and .es domains info. Cancelling .org domain in 1and1
Some time ago I bought two domains, .es and .org and I associated them to a Google Site.
In the beginnig the price was just 5€ each one, but after several years I realized I am not using at all .org domain, and, more important, .org domain "exposes" to all people personal data (email, phone number, even postal address!!...)
http://whois.domaintools.com/

With .es domain this info is not so detailed, because it appears 1and1.
% NOTE: The registry for this domain name does not publish ownership
% records (whois records) in the standard format. This data
% represents the most likely status of the domain based on
% information provided by the Internet's domain name servers (DNS).
domain: xxxx.es
status: taken
nameserver: ns63.1and1.es
nameserver: ns64.1and1.es
% For more information, please visit http://www.nic.es/

http://www.dominios.es/dominios/es/busca-tu-dominio
And there, info is just mail and name, but no phone number and postal address
https://www.nic.es/sgnd/dominio/publicDetalleDominio.action
So I decedid to cancel .org domain.
I didn't see any option about cancel in control panel, https://clientes.1and1.es/
Googling, I finally found this
http://www.joomlaempresa.es/es/tutoriales/trucos-para-webmaster/125-como-dar-de-baja-un-dominio-en-1and1.html
Login in https://contrato.1and1.es/ I was able to cancell .org keeping .es domain at the same time. I fixed the ending date as the date where end my contract for that domain: meanwhile I am going to redirect .org domain redirecting to a page where I inform that I am no longer using .org domain (right now I was redirecting both to the same Google site)

Removing old kernels in ubuntu
A very simple one:
Each time kernel is updated I realize there is some disk wasted with previous versions: I do not have grub menu, but I imagine it will contain a lot of them.
Looking for some info
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Lubuntu/Documentation/RemoveOldKernels
It is easy to do it manually
But ¿how to do it automatically?
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1961409
It seems some script on boot will do the job, but I think I will do it manually :-)

error: malformed file, press any key to continue. Ubuntu solution
Just getting this message on boot and looking for info
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1311247
Reading comments, this one is interesting
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1311247/comments/25
There are serveral links to workarounds, like this one
https://forum.manjaro.org/index.php?topic=10354.msg103451#msg103451but some people say no workaround work for them, and it appears to be a real solution
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1311247/comments/80
So, the more logical things to do are:
1- to wait for a grub2 update
2- look for a grub2 update compiled package
3- compile and install a grub2 update
The error is not critical, so it seems #3 is too much.
Just looking for the grub2 version installed, there wasn't installed? (I do not use grub menu, I have just ubuntu installed, so it may be not necessary)
dpkg -l grub or grub2

sudo apt-get install grub2
