web through mobile network, just only through wi-fi; and sometimes can
start Notify, sometimes cannot; also and i can not install some
application on my taintdroid2.3 system? isn't the taintdroid2.3

As a first step, I would try getting Android without TaintDroid working on your phone. This would simplify the debugging process.

Thanks,

Well I have been having the same problems. I have TaintDroid running in my Google Nexus S phone. The android version shown in the setting is Full Android on Crespo 2.3.4 (I doubt if this is a standard Android version). Now that taintdroid works in my phone, I am not able to install apps like Skype, Viber and some antivirus apps. I would get errors msg like these apps has stopped working and it is not supported. I am also not able to use the camera of my phone.I understand use of taint droid tampers the guaranty of the phone but why are these apps not working?

TaintDroid does not allow 3rd-party native libraries to load. This may be causing the runtime errors you are observing.

As for the camera not working, it may be a library problem. In which case, it would be best to debug the build without using TaintDroid.

Also, we've only tested TaintDroid on the Nexus S, and not the Spring Nexus S 4G.  That's not to say TaintDroid does not work with the Nexus S 4G, just that you will need to do a bit more (see the other thread in this mailing list).
