65008 | How to disable the Internet so that even I wouldn't be able to enable it for a while? | As a productivity and impulse control measure, I'd like to be able to turn off the Internet in my Android 4.4 phone (unlocked but not rooted). I'd like to do it **in such a way that even I wouldn't be able to turn it back on for a while** , _e.g._ 24 hours. I know how to do this on desktop Linux. If it's possible, how can I do this on Android? (Please don't suggest some lame apps that can be circumvented by simply uninstalling them) |
65001 | factory reset of a Huawei Ascend H881C | My google play store is not working. Every time I go to download an app, it says no connectivity. I was told that I would have to reset my phone, but I'm scared that it will delete everything. I can't download backup apps because I can't even get on google play. I'm really sad and frustrated because I don't know what to do. Please help! Thanks. (: |
65002 | HTC Evo 4G Network problem | I live in Burma and have a small phoneshop. Recently, I bought a bunch of 'HTC Evo 4G' loaded with Chinese roms. They also have UIM card slots. To be exact : 4.54.651.1 by tonney@diypda, pri 2.33, S-Off We got two kinds of CDMA network here, one has 3G support (mectel)and the other is capped at 30kbps(73) The problem is, I tried some customs roms on a few Evos and now they won't read the 73's line. The mectel line is fine on those phones. I tried several radios/baseband and rolled back to stock, both via zip and RUU. Still it won't detect the 73 line. The other HTC evos, which I havent flashed custom roms, read 73 just fine. Is there anyway to copy some configuration or stuff from those ones to these trouble making ones? |
65005 | Does syncing more Google accounts decrease a phone's battery life? | I recently got a Motorola Moto G (4.3 upgraded to 4.4.2), and I wasn't getting the battery life that my vendor claimed I would get (Through mixed usage: 2-3 hours of music, some web browsing, a lot of Whatsapp, a little bit of gaming, and Wifi/mobile network completely turned off in the night (for some 8-9 hours), I barely touch 20 hours of battery life) I was wondering whether this has got to do with the 3 google accounts that I've kept in sync for GMail and some other Google services. I may be a bit paranoid because my previous Android phone suffered from woeful battery near the end of its life, but still I would like to know if syncing more accounts drains the battery more or not. |
69588 | Completely manual screen management | I have problems with my phone turning the screen on during calls and accidentally hanging up or muting myself with my ear. I also find myself hanging up on people while removing the phone from my pocket to answer it. I would like to completely disable my phone turning the screen on while retaining control using the power button. Can I do this? |
64753 | Deleted Credit Card in Google Wallet | It was my first time to use Google Wallet. After I purchased & downloaded an app, I deleted my credit card info from Google Wallet. Then I noticed that my purchase was still pending, so I immediately entered my credit card info again. Will that affect the purchase I've just made? |
60231 | How can I get a numpad (numeric keys arranged phone style) on the AOSP 4.3 keyboard? | How can I activate a phone-style numeric keypad on Android? I know the keypad layout exists because some apps change the keyboard into this layout on numeric fields (eg, zip codes). Other keyboards support it (eg, on the Swype keyboard, long pressing the '123' brings up the numpad). Here is a way to do it on the Galaxy S. The stock AOSP doesn't have the gear or 3x4 buttons though. How can I activate this on the stock AOSP keyboard? I'm using Cyanogenmod 10.2, which is based on AOSP 4.3. |
60232 | Issue after upgrading from 2.3 to 4.1.2 | Just upgraded the operating system on a Galaxy S II from 2.3 to 4.1.2. After upgrading we are unable to update any apps because it says the phone is too low on memory. When I look at the storage breakdown I see: * Device memory has 1.97 GB and only 189 MB is available (which is where it says the issue is). * "USB storage": 9.86 GB free of 11.36 GB. "USB storage" appears to be where picture/videos/music/ringtones are stored. Oddly enough, it also says that this is where the applications that are unable to be updated are stored. We tried the solution found here, but it didn't seem to help. Does anyone know what might be going on? |

60234 | Secure boot error, Cause: boot certification verify | My LG Spectrum 2 (Verizon) has recently started having a variety of boot problems. Problems include any of the following: * Boot-up hang on the LG splash screen * "[1160] Secure booting Error!

69584 | How to enable TTY on my Android 2.3.4 smartphone | I want to connect my Android phone to my car radio using the phone's earphone socket & the radio's AUX input. The idea is so I can listen to (1) music from my phone and (2) phone conversations thru the car radio/speakers. As far as picking up my voice during phone calls, I want to be able to speak into my phone's mic (phone will be mounted onto the visor in front of me). I understand that I need to go into call settings/ttymode & set it to "tty VCO" so that the phone's mic still works (from this page). Unfortunately I can't find the tty menu on my 2.3.4 android Do I need to enable tty? How? Or doesn't 2.3.4 have the tty feature? Please help |

When a contact has both a picture on Google and on Facebook, the picture from Google will be displayed. I don't know if this is the default behavior, or if this is because I merge the Facebook contact into the Google one (but I want to keep doing that, to prevent my contacts from changing their names). Is it possible (built-in option, or external app), to change this behavior and display the Facebook picture instead? I have a Motorola Razr running Gingerbread. |

42401 | Android 4.1.1 consumes too much memory | My HTC One S has been upgraded to 4.1.1 and I noticed that it started consuming too much memory. When I had 4.0, average memory consumption was about 300-450 MB. But now it is on the level of 700-850 MB. Is this a normal situation for the current version of Android or did something go wrong after the upgrade? All system apps were upgraded with the OS. I have 1 GB of RAM. |
46383 | creating a pseudo sd card by partitioning the main drive of an android phone | It seems like it's possible to mount the SD card of rooted android phone on a PC while the phone is connected to the PC via USB. This would be great for me because I want to keep essential files saved on my phone, edit them from the PC when I need to and bring them with me wherever I go. Unfortunately, the phones I want the most (nexus 4, HTC one, HTC one x with 64gb) don't have SD cards. Is it possible (on a rooted phone with cyanogenmod) to partition the "HD" on a phone without an SD card and then use that partition as described above? (The format of the partition is not very important to me.) Will the solution suggested here[1] make it possible to mount the .img file on the PC while the phone is connected via USB?

42405 | Android system RAM usage | I've been trying to figure out how Android/CyanogenMod manages RAM internally, and what exactly I can trim down. I'm running CyanogenMod 10.1-M2 right now, but the memory usage has stayed fairly consistent over the updates ever since I installed the CM 10 about a half a year ago. Here are my questions : * What could Trebuchet be doing eating away 100M RAM by itself? For that matter, `systemui` is eating over 70M RAM as well. A rough calculation of the video RAM requirements (`4 colors x 1200 x 720` ~ 3-4MB) is nowhere near hundreds of megabytes, even if you have, say, 10 layers on your launcher _and_ System UI, each taking the full screen. * `system_server` is taking ~150M, is that normal? I guess if you take into account services shown by `dumpsys meminfo` it all adds up, but I wanted to check.

17337 | Galaxy S2 launcher repeatedly crashes and reboots phone following software update 20/12/2011 | I updated the phones software using its own software update menu option. As part of the update process, the phone rebooted automatically. After that, the phone just keeps rebooting itself. As soon as the media scanner finishes scanning, the phone reboots. the cycle is about 20-30 seconds. During these repeated reboots I saw once an error message saying the launcher has crashed. Since the phone keeps rebooting, I can't open a menu or do anything with it. It does not connect to the PC as the reboot cycle is way too short. How can I recover from this mess? Anyone can help me? Thank you so much. Is there any way to backup the data from the phone? Is there a 'safe-mode'? My galaxy s2 uses official software, and was updated to latest software a month ago. I checked and found there is a new update for me, so I started the process but it turned out to be a disaster. |

52320 | Dialer problem with Galaxy Y after rooting | I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy Y. I also used Link2SD to move some of the apps to the SD card partition to free up some space. Since then I notice this weird behavior. When I go to Logs or Contacts and swipe on a number to place a call, the dialer will not get initiated. The screen will remain unchanged and the call will not get placed. And I will not be able to make calls for the next 5-10 mins. Then when I try again, the call will get placed normally. But, when I disconnect the call after speaking, the dialer will try to dial the number which failed earlier and I need to disconnect it from dialing. Also, If I had swiped on the contact more than once when the dialer didn't inititate, then after I disconnect, the dialer will try to place the call the exact same number of times I tried to swipe, in quick succession and I need to disconnect it during each time. This happens often and is quite frustrating. Has anybody else faced this issue or can anyone suggest how I can solve this? I cannot unroot because I have less memory on the in built memory and I need link2sd to keep the apps installed. Thanks in advance. |

9131 | Can the Aldiko reader show pdf files in it's catalog screen which are not present in the ebook folder? | I have the following situation : 1.

However, this **book was not present in the Aldiko book case view** when I later on started Aldiko again _Hence my question:_ **is it possible to let Aldiko list books which are not present in the eBook folder ?** I can't move the pdf into eBook, because Dropbox will download it happily again, when it doesn't find it.

10646 | Updating T-Mobile G1 from 1.0 to 1.6 | I have a T-Mobile G1 phone (Dev Phone) with android 1.0. To be able to install some apps, I needed to update it to 1.6. So I downloaded an update file and put it on its sdcard. But the update failed and now the problem is that I cannot boot the phone completely. First it asks for a SIM card.  Although, I don't have a T-Mobile SIM card now, I could pass that stage with an AT&T SIM card.  Now it wants me to login to my gmail account to boot up. But I cannot connect to Internet at the moment.  There is no option for wireless too. When I press menu button it just shows me the settings for APNs.  I believe in the newer versions of android, one can skip logging in to Google. But now I cannot even "adb shell" to copy other update files to the SD card. Any helps would be appreciated. Thanks, |

7929 | How can I modify files on a remote computer over wifi/3g from my Android phone/tablet? | I have a scenario where I watch a fair amount of video content from a DLNA device that doesn't support deleting (GoogleTV, via Logitech Revue). I would like to be able to delete files after I'm done watching them, without using my laptop to RDS/FTP/etc to the file server. In a perfect world I would be able to do it from the DLNA player (which I realize would be a question for another StackExchange site, but I've done a fair amount of research on this and I'm pretty sure it's just not possible yet...), but I would accept an Android-friendly solution -- since I have an Android phone -- that I could use to connect to the file server and delete the files as an acceptable alternative. Before getting the Revue I accomplished this using my XBox360 as a Windows Media Center Extender, which in addition to allowing me to watch my content, was capable of deleting. The file server is running Windows 7. I want a point & click, turnkey solution, so I'm not interested in an SSH-like or RDP-like solution, because I don't want to type out directory navigation commands or do lots of pinch-to- zoom + drag + click on my phone. I could more quickly and easily just walk into the other room and delete the files. Some sort of native file browser would be best, I think. |

20807 | Root my EVO wihtout USB cord | I want to root my EVO... but my charging port is broken (I've been using an external battery charger to get around this). Anyway to get the files I need to root my EVO onto my EVO without using this cable? I was thinking about going through Box or Dropbox or something like that but I'm not sure how to download these files into a specific folder on my EVO. Thanks. |
7409 | Is unroot still possible in this case? | I have an LG Optimus One ( LGP500 ) running 2.2 and I rooted it using the z4root tool, version 1.0. From what I saw, back then it didn't have an unroot option. In the meantime, I did an update using the LG Mobile Tool, and I think it updated my system to 2.2.2 . I noticed that the newer versions of z4root have an unroot option, so I upgraded my z4root from 1.0 to 1.3, to try to unroot the phone ... but I only see the `Temporary root` and `Permanent root` options. I tried pressing the `Permanent root` and it seemed to do something, after which it returned me to my `Home`. From this, I'm drawing the conclusion that rerooting did not work. I am assuming z4root needs to root, so that the unroot option is available. Is there anyway I could unroot my phone now? |
20805 | Does Galaxy Tab 10.1 USB adapter allow an external web camera? | Does the Galaxy Tab 10.1 USB adapter allow you to plug in an external web camera? The Samsung site does not appear to say either way (or to even list what you can use with the USB adapter.) And if it does not, are there any tablets that do? |

49719 | Advertisments still blocked after uninstalling AdFree | I am trying to test out Admob for an app on my phone. But I have absolutely no idea what is blocking my ads. My phone is rooted, but I don't have any ad- blocking software. I did have AdFree, but then I restored my phone. So what's doing it? My ads are definitely being blocked because I have gone on several websites with ads, and they don't show up. |
49712 | How to customize/build (from scratch) the android emulator for kiosk? | I'm trying to build the android system (4.2.2) from scratch for a kiosk and am testing with the emulator. Following the general instructions on this blog, http://yaapb.wordpress.com/2012/09/22/build-a-custom-android-emulator-image/ I was able to build an x86 emulator as well as the goldfish kernel. What I'm looking for is some way to prevent the lock screen (and that introductory tutorial) from starting on the emulator and to run my app instead. Here's the use-case I'm trying to build, 1. start up the emulator 2. after booting, instead of the lock screen, to see my app running instead To prevent the lock screen (and intro tutorial), I'm guessing that I need to edit something in the android source. Does anyone know where (as in what file) those modifications need to be done? Also; how do I bundle an app along with the android image so that its part of the system when it boots? Right now, I'm pushing apps onto the emulator using the adb program, but surely there has to be a way to get in on the system? Something similar to the calculator app? Searching online gives me results on how to make an app auto-start/disable the lock system, but doesn't tell me anything on how to bundle them with the system. I'm more of a C-programmer than a Java developer, so please be patient with me. PS: I hope this IS where I'm supposed to ask this and not on stackoverflow.com? |

17593 | Officially rooted HTC, denies su permission in Android Emulator app | officially rooted from htcdev.com, I followed the instructions step by step and had the screen confirmation that my phone (HTC Sensation XL) is rooted. Now when trying to gain super user access through "Android emulator", "Superuser", "Super manager" the permission is denied or the apps cannot detect if the device has been rooted. I want to know why root access is denied after the device has been rooted successfully and how to fix this issue, am I missing extra steps or additional settings? |
17596 | Phone reboots when I navigate past Falkirk | Occasionally when navigating, my phone will freeze (the display and also the music, if it's playing) then reboot a few seconds later. I realised today that while it's happened in other places, driving past Falkirk seems to trigger it. My question is: Given that I'm away from my PC, and it doesn't happen very often, how can I diagnose the (general, rather than location-specific) issue? I've got an HTC Desire running CM7 and I'm comfortable using a shell. |
17595 | How can I download an MP3 to my phone instead of opening it in a music player? | I'm trying to download podcast MP3s to my phone so I can listen to them in my car. Ideally, I'd like to be able to Chrome-to-Phone them from my computer at home, and then choose to download and play them back from my device once I get in my car. The problem is that when I send an MP3 URL to my phone, the browser only gives me the option of playing the audio directly in a media player. This is a really poor experience because it can't properly buffer the podcast file for smooth playback and it doesn't seem to allow me to play in the background.  I tried both Download All Files and using ASTRO's "Enable Browser Downloads". The screenshot above was taken with both apps installed. I've also tried using Google Listen to download podcasts, but I can never seem to use that without the download getting corrupted or the app crashing in some way. Does anyone know what I need to do to be able to download MP3s instead of just playing them back immediately? |

44526 | CWM Recovery mode menu does not show up, stucks at red screen | I have Karbonn A5+ phone. I did not find any tuts online tailor made for this model A5"+"', though I found very great resource for Karbonn A5, which I presumed that must be same as A5+ but just with lower processing power (855MHz vs 1GHz). They look exactly the same. I tried to install the drivers for A5 as in this video and link given in video description, they seem to be installed properly. I tried to install CWM recovery as shown in this video by the same person who prepared above video for A5. It said that the CWM recovery was flashed successfully and the rebooted. But when I tried to reboot the phone in recovery mode it did not show the CWM menu, it just stuck at red screen. What could be wrong? Does these drivers are incompatible? If yes, how can I test them? Or the CWM provided in the description of the video above may be incompatible with my phone? If yes where can I get proper CWM recovery for this phone? Now I tried reflashing the CWM recovery twice but it did not helped, So how can I get at least my stock recovery back? And how can I install CWM recovery properly? Well I know I asked too much question stupidly. But just anxious as am noob. |

I would also like to avoid `Data2SD` because I've read some bad reviews let alone when I search it on `PlayStore` the responce is tha the application cannot be found.

62493 | Cross-device game saves | My father loves the game Hay Day. I'm not exactly sure why but that isn't important. He is on a Motorola Droid Ultra and the Ellipsis 7 tablet he recently got for free at Verizon for upgrading. Both running some version or another of Jelly Bean. He doesn't want to transfer the data from his phone to his tablet, he wants to sync the games. He won't be playing them both at the same time. But I was just wondering, if that is a possibility. Summing up, I guess I'm asking, if we can backup and download save data seamlessly. I'm not a programmer but I'm absolutely not a newbie. |
13179 | Android Backup and Restore | I have rooted android phone. I backed up a application, uninstalled the application from the phone and restored it back the way it was there in the phone(using backup including changes to packages.list and packages.xml). The restored application is not showing up immediately but shows up after reboot of the phone. Is there any service that has to be restarted to recognize the presence of the app immediately? |
53587 | How to set google now to use the media volume instead of system volume? | For a long time I thought something is wrong with Google now that it doesn't say anything when I ask it questions. Now I've finally found out the reason - it uses the system volume instead of the media volume (the one that is usually used in games). Since I've set the system volume to be mute and I sometimes set the ringtones to be quite, it makes Google now itself to be quite. My question: Why does it use it? what is the system volume used for? According to what i've found , system sound is used for key typing ,lock screen sounds, and camera shutter sound Can I set google now to use the media volume instead? |
53580 | Internal Storage Unavailable | I have two Android tablets running Gingerbread (2.3.4). I am seeing the following when I look at my storage: NAND FLASH: 2.15 of 2.23 GB Available MicroSD: 7.8 GB Available Internal Storage Available Space: 0.00B. I was wondering how I could possibly fix this issue. To me it seems like a partitioning problem, but I'm not very familiar with Android beyond standard use. If anyone could possibly help I would appreciate it. Thank you. There is no manufacturer label on these. They're running an ARM v7 processor, 380 MB RAM, and the build number, if it helps, is b01ref-eng 2.3.4 GB.b01ref.20110924 eng.root.20110924.132957 test-keys |
53581 | How do I flash a custom rom over LiquidICS? | I am running liquid ics, on droid2. I am attempting to flash with paranoid android. I succesfully downloaded and loaded the rom onto the sd card, I open up clockwork mod, clear cache and do a factory reset. Then I install the paranoid android zip from the sd card, and it runs succesfully. However when I boot, Liquid ICS is still coming up. I then do an android factory reset (that is instead of booting into clockwork mod, i boot into the stock android recovery screen) and do a factory restore from there. No luck, liquid ics is still coming up. Am I missing a step here? |

13174 | DroidX data encryption - which algorithm and how strong? | I have a follow-up to the question posted here. I recently got a 2.3 DroidX phone, and noticed that it as well has data encryption option. I pulled an SD card from device, and noticed that folder structure is intact. I tried reading file from the SD card, which was produced by a photo application, and it was unreadable, however the file itself contained some data which was not random, which to me indicated that not the whole file was AES'ed. I was also able to put an unencrypted file on SD card which was readable afterwards. So, the question is: does anyone know what encryption methodology is being used here, what algorithms are in place, and how strong they are against experienced attacker? **EDIT** : My friend got a droid2, which also runs gingerbread 2.3.3, and it has data encryption feature too. So... is data encryption an android feature or specific to Motorola devices? |
54057 | unlink () and rmdir() errors when running adb wipe command | I'm trying to wipe my device using `adb shell su -c wipe all`, but when I run it I get the following errors: `unlink() error on '/system/vendor/res/images/dock/dock.png' 'Read-only file system'` and `rmdir() error on '/system/vendor/res/images/dock' 'Read-only file system'` except very many of them for varying files and directories. Is there something I should do before running the wipe command? thanks! PS. This occurs on a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with a slightly customized 4.3 OS. I don't really have anything else to compare against, but doesn't seem like a hardware issue, therefore no samsung galaxy nexus tag. |
54055 | Was it my rooting that caused my Android to malfunction? Or what was it really? | I _finally_ rooted my phone around a week ago, amidst all those battling feelings, and I used it for around 4 days. While the phone was charging through the USB port of my computer, I remember like putting the computer on suspend and then removing the phone. Thereafter, it never turned on! Except sometimes, where it came to the boot screen and got stuck, or it went just past the boot screen and got stuck again, or where it didn't even turn on the screen but just kept vibrating. It was only charging through the USB, so I had not enabled file sharing or anything where I would have to disconnect the phone from the computer first before unplugging, so I'm quite sure that it's not anything to do with corruption of data due to just unplugging. My Android (ICS) is yet under warranty, although rooted, so it's currently at the company service centre getting repaired. Their warranty card has got a whole bunch of terms and conditions that void warranty, but nothing to do with rooting thankfully. I only rooted it, and went NO further into flashing another ROM. So my question, what happened to my Android? Was it some application that required root, misbehaving? Or was it due to overcharging? It can't be due to overcharging since when I plugged in my phone it was only about 60-80% charged, and I was at the machine for only a few minutes before disconnecting it from my computer. Whatever the reason is, please help me figure it out. The phone comes back this coming up Wednesday, and I want to be knowledgeable enough to understand what's going on and whether I should root it again if the company has unrooted it (hopefully not! ;) ). |
54053 | Cannot change screen lock setting | I'm using Android 4.3, and a few days ago I added a new root certificate to my phone (Via Settings > Security > Credential Storage / Install from storage). This required me to choose a screen lock pattern or PIN. So far so good. Now I've removed the certificate, but I can't change back to using swipe to unlock. The option is disabled, with this message: > Disabled by administrator, encryption policy, or credential storage To be clear: * There are no options selected in the "Device administrators" settings page * Encryption has never been enabled on the device * There are user credentials stored on the phone (The "User" tab of Trusted credentials is empty) Is there any way of finding out what is preventing Android from enabling the swipe to unlock feature? |
54059 | What kind of hardware problems is a cheap Android phone likely to have? | For development and application purposes an organisation I am with is considering buying a cheap Android handset here in India (this is the handset). But what kind of problems can one anticipate in such a phone? Most of what I can find on the net is just references to a "short life" - which does not tell us what kind of problems would actually occur - and lack of access to Google Play (on the software end). I should note that this is a rather peculiar use case in that it's mainly going to be an SMS gateway and at most a very low demand server for SMS (possibly for Web too - there is a discussion on our situation in this SO question). But we are interested in this question in general as well. **Edit:** For reference, most such cheap handsets in India - and I suppose in most of the world - are made using licensed designs of low end Chinese phones. |
54058 | Which VCF field do I use to specify a group in Android? And how do I get the picture via URL? | I'm creating a VCF file on my website. 1) It works nicely with the export, and most data are being imported, but the group is not created or used on Android. I've tried using CATEGORIES and ORG I also tried to look at KIND and MEMBER, but couldn't figure out how to use those, seems to refer to URI's and not a group name in the phone book. If I export a contact, it doesn't fill in the group in the contact. 2) As I have limited text possibilities (I am going to encode it in QR code), I would like to get the contacts image exported as an URL, but it seems that it completely ignores the URL. I can of course encode it in base64, but then the text is going to be too big for QR code. |
62146 | How can I control wi-fi data use? | I'll be taking a vacation next summer, and on the cruise data use is sold per megabyte. If I JUST want to check e-mail on my android device, how the heck do I do that? How do I prevent all the other apps on my phone from accessing the wi-fi (cellular will be turned off, or I'll be using my wi-fi only tablet). My objective is to limit network use to just the one or two apps that I really want to see results from. I can't seem to find anything in the settings that would allow me to do this. Is there any way? I'm probably willing to root my tablet if necessary. Devices available are the moment are a Droid 4 phone, and an Acer Iconia A200 tablet. |
62147 | What do I need in my emulator to run Chrome's apk? | Most answers here just mention to download the APK file and install it via `adb`.

20373 | What happens when an SDcard is inserted? | I have a rooted Sony Tablet S, and one of my issues with it is that there is little onboard storage. The Sony-recommended way of dealing with this is to transfer files between internal and external storage, as many apps do not have access to the external storage. Having rooted the device, however, I am able to use `mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard2 /mnt/sdcard/2` to mount this. I was then intending to rename the media folder on my external sdcard to .media, and use `mount -o bind /mnt/sdcard2/.media/$F /mnt/sdcard/media/$F/external` for each folder `$F` in that directory. The problem with this is that on removal of the external sdcard, or on reboot, these mounts are lost. On my Maemo phone I did something similar, and was able to have this mount behaviour occur when the external storage was attached. As Maemo5 is a truly open OS I was able to do this fairly easily, and there was a lot of community support. When trying to do the same under Android I have come across an app called Tasker that performs actions as I would need, however this is paid software and I would prefer not to have to install something that performs actions which should be build into the operating system. ## TLDR; I'd like to know what is actually happening on my device when an SDcard is inserted - are scripts run? Are signals sent which could be used to trigger scripts? Has anyone attempted to do similar (I don't understand why this would not be the default behaviour to be honest - the fact that external storage is hidden from apps is frustrating to say the least) |

1096 | Why does the default Email app download the same (POP3) message over and over again? | For the most part, I haven't had too many problems with the stock Email app on my Moto Droid. I have both ActiveSync (Exchange) and POP3 accounts set up and never have trouble with ActiveSync. But for some reason, with the POP3 account, sometimes the app gets into this endless loop and won't stop downloading the exact same message and showing it as unread. I'll open the message, delete it, and then next time the app checks for new e-mail, the message is back again as if I'd never opened it in the first place. Usually the problem seems to go away if I either (a) delete the message from the message list without opening it, or (b) delete it from within the message and then immediately hit "Load more messages". But neither of these methods work _all_ the time; sometimes the message still comes back! I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this and knows why it happens (I assume it's got to be some connectivity issue - I do know that the Email app flakes out a lot due to 3G/WiFi switching, but that's hardly a complete explanation), and if there's any foolproof way to either ensure the message is deleted "for good" or to prevent the problem from ever happening in the first place. Unfortunately I've never been able to reliably reproduce the issue - it seems to be random or at least intermittent. Any ideas? |

29518 | Can't access my old files after switching ROM from AOKP to CM, even though they're still there | Initially I thought this was a problem with Google Play / Apollo, but I realize now that when I plug in my phone via USB, I can't see any of the many, many folders and files present on `/sdcard` that I could see previously. If I copy a "new" mp3 onto my Galaxy Nexus, it's recognized just fine by both Google Play and Apollo. However, none of my old mp3s are recognized. They were placed in `/sdcard/Music`, a folder that I cannot see when I plug in my phone, only from the file manager running on the phone. The issue persists if I move an "old" mp3 from my music folder out into the sdcard root, it's still not recognized. This makes me think this might be permission related, but the file manager says that all files are readable and writable. I've tried running "fix permissions" in both ROM manager and the CWM recovery, but it makes no difference. Any idea what has happened, and how to fix it so that I can use all my old files again? :) **edit** If it's any help, I just ran `ls -al` in a terminal emulator and I can't see any difference at all between folders I can and cannot see. Example: I can see `/sdcard/media` just fine, because I created that folder from Explorer in Windows. Music in that directory works. I _cannot_ see `/sdcard/music`. Here's the permissions: drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2012-09-18 media drwxrwxr-x root sdcard_rw 2012-09-16 music This is a bit confusing. **edit2** When I try pulling and pushing a file with adb like so: adb pull file.tar adb push file.tar file2.tar I get failed to copy 'file.tar' to 'file2.tar': Read-only file system **As bk201doesntexist on the XDA forums pointed out, this is because you have to use an absolute path.** However, when I do `adb push file.tar /sdcard/file.tar` the file gets transferred, shows up when i run `ls`, but it's invisible in the "Galaxy Nexus" unit in My Computer in Windows. tl;dr When I push files with `adb push` they get transferred but don't show up in the "Galaxy Nexus" unit in My Computer. "Old" files from before ROM- switching do not show up. New files that I put in now work fine. |
29519 | Can I change gmail's format of displaying messages? Would like subject on top & bolded | I recently updated form Droid Bionic to Droid Razr M. Now that I have ICS, I have noticed that in the gmail app, the messages are listed with the sender in bold and on top and the subject line smaller and underneath. This is very frustrating for me as its often the subject not the sender that I am looking for. Is there a way to update this? If not, is there a different app I could install that would be like the gmail app but give me this flexibility? |
29517 | Did Android delete my photos? Help! | I recently returned from a special event where I took several dozen photos with my HTC One phone. I attempted to transfer the photos located in the `mnt/emmc/DCIM/100MEDIA` folder to the `mnt/sdcard/DCIM/100ANDRO` folder using the Astro app so I could transfer to my computer like I have in the past. However, this time when I viewed the photos after the transfer, all of the photos show a file size of 0 KB except for the last two which work properly. I previously verified the photos were showing properly before the transfer. Strangely, the video files did not seem to be affected. Has anyone heard of this problem in the past and know of a fix, or can anyone recommend a good file or photo recovery tool as a last recourse? Thanks for any help or suggestions. |

23770 | Text to speech for apps that do not support it? | Is there a way to read aloud the text shown on the screen by apps that do not support text to speech? For instance, it would be very nice to listen to the text shown by the Kindle app if you can't look at the phone all the time, but Amazon doesn't support this for more or less evil reasons. I'm wondering if there is perhaps an app or setting, for instance for blind people, that supports this anyway - preferably with an arbitrary speech engine. |

I've tried holding down the power button for 60s but its still on! :) Thanks! |
