34251 | Resetting Google Search | Google Search on my AT&T Samsung Galaxy S3 is not "looking" at all on my phone. It is strictly doing a web search. How can I establish it to access phone and web? Or can I uninstall it and reinstall? I have ICS version 4.0.4 stock AT&T ROM and not rooted. |

34257 | Contact names not showing for the calls and messages | My Galaxy S3 was working great until I installed a firmware update on 26/11/12. Immediately after, the names dropped off the calls and messages and it is now showing phone numbers only. When I dial somebody or receive an incoming call, only the numbers are displayed not the contact name. Please help.... |
29192 | How is the Gmail password stored in Android - and where? | I have looked around and found no information on how Android manages to store passwords on the device. Especially Gmail passwords. I'm looking to learn how Android encrypts and stores passwords ? What key does it use and where is this key stored, and what encryption algorithm it uses. |
29194 | All emails under K9 -app? | Android requires at least one-working Gmail that is apparently tied to the default email. Now I would like to have that email under K9 but I cannot because Android instructs me to hard-reset my device if I remove the Gmail from the default Gmail. Now the problem is that I get two notification from Default client and from K9. So how can I have all emails under K9? |
74627 | First smart phone, activating droid incredible question | I just bought a used Droid Incredible off Amazon and would like to play around with it. Its asking me to call a number and activate it. I am hesitant to activate it before I go to the Verizon store to upgrade from my flip phone to this smart phone, using the same phone number. If I activate it will that mess anything up? I know very little about cell phone service. |
49936 | Android phone cannot press any buttons after boot | My Samsung Galaxy S 4G seems to be bricked. I must have done something horribly wrong to get it to be in this state. Sometimes, it hangs on the Samsung screen when booting up. Other times, it is unresponsive after the first five seconds. I think it's the media scanning that's causing this, but I am not sure. Samsung Kies and ADB both do not detect the device. I did a factory reset when this was happening, and it seems to have made it worse. Is my phone un-savingly bricked? How can I fix it? When the phone was still working, I think I deleted some system files accidentally. This could be why it's not working properly. Edit: Now it seems like I can't even get pass the Samsung Screen. |
49937 | how to sync phone memory with pc? | Before Jelly Bean forced us to use MTP mode (mass transfer protocol) instead of Mass Storage Device, It was dead simple to backup my phone to my pc, because I only needed to plug it in, and sync the contents of the SD card to my PC. I used an app called "Free File Sync", which basically just syncs any two folders in windows. The problem now is, that MTP mode doesn't assign drive letters to the phone's memory (internal and SD), which causes that my syncing program simply doesn't recognize the device. I have the same problem with other programs that I use to manage my phones SD card, namely "TreeSize free", which analyses any folder or drive and gives you an oversight of the space consumed by folders, etc. Again, since the phone is not assigned a drive letter, the program simply ignores it, as if it wasn't there. So what are my options? Is there a default way of syncing MTP drives with Windows? I also have tried to enable Mass Storage in my phone, but it doesn't work (the option is simply no longer there in **Jellybean 4.1.2** , or at least in my model) Note, I don't want apps to make backups of my stuff (apps, pictures, etc), I already have them (Titanium Backup, etc), what I want is to be able to SYNC everything in my phone (backups included) to my pc automatically. I could simply copy ALL files from Windows Explorer every single time, and then manually syncing it to the destination backup folder, but obviously is not convenient and loses the point of SYNCING. So what can I do? I just want to once in a while sync everything in my phone to my pc as a backup. Thanks! |
49934 | How do I change my photo in my message threads? | I have an LG Optimus Elite and I am running the stock ROM. In my text message threads, under "Me" where my messages are, it shows one of my contacts, rather than my Facebook or Google photo. How do I change this? |
49935 | how to set up lockscreen and quick acces to apps | Back in the day, I had a phone which I rooted and got a custom rom. (An Xperia X8, with the GingerDX custom rom using android 2.3.7) When I turned on the phone, I got the sliders for calling, messages, silent mode, and a custom app. But since I ALSO had the pattern lock activated, just after sliding for either optin, I got the pattern lock screen, and after entering my pattern, I went to whatever app (quick access) I chose. Now, I got a new phone, a Motorola RAZR XT919 with out of the box **Jelly Bean (4.1.2)** , but now I see that if i choose to have the pattern lock screen, I no longer have the quick "slide" screen for quick access to common apps (calls, messages, and camera). Is this how it is always been for native android? Or there is some hidden option to have both functions? Or are there apps to achieve that? I really never knew if that feature was specific for the custom rom I used with the other phone because it was my first android phone and i never compared it to others, but since it feels so natural, I expected it to just do the same for other newer android versions. Wrapping up, I'd like to be able to have the shortcuts on the lockscreen, and then (if enabled) to be asked for the unlock pattern, so I can have the best of the two (immediately choosing and app and protect the phone with the pattern) Any thoughts or ideas? |
49933 | Corrupt Internal Storage File System | I am using an original RAZR that is partitioned using Safestrap running stock 4.1 on one partition and CM10.1 on the other. My problem is the internal storage (internal SD card I believe) partition running CM10.1 has a corrupt file system and I am having trouble running a check and repair. The internal storage always shows 0.0b available and no files can be saved to that disk space. The OS restores to default on every reboot, I'm guessing the config files are failing to save when I get through the setup. Troubleshooting steps/questions so far... * Using Safestrap I have tried to wipe the system and all caches, then reinstall CM10.1 but no luck. The version I have of SS does not provide a file system check. * I can connect using shell and ADB, just not sure exactly what commands to run from there. Specifically how do I find out what file system to mount and how do I type that out as an argument? Do I use the fsck_msdos program that I have available in the /system/xbin folder? If so how do I find the file system information to complete the syntax for running the fsck? If fsck is the correct method to repair where do I run it from? Stock or CM installation? ADB shell or terminal from a running droid OS? |
49931 | Is it possible to install already installed apps with one click? | In the Apple App Store, if you have downloaded an item in the past, you can click the `INSTALL` button to download it in one click. However, in the Google Play Store, you have to go into the app, press the install button, accept the permissions, and then it's downloaded. It's a bit tedious if you're batch re- installing after you did a factory reset. Is there a function similar to that button in the App Store, but for the Google Play Store? |
50370 | What is the difference between "Screen On" and "Awake"? | I can possibly understand why the phone can be Awake without having the screen on (background stuff), but how can the screen be on without it being awake?  If relevant my device is the Nexus 4 running Android Jelly Bean 4.3. |
50371 | Why Google Play Music app gets turned off when I'm running? | Whenever I go for a run and I'm using my Google Play Music app, my phone turns off within 5-10 minutes, causing said app to turn off. Is there a way to stop this from happening? If relevant I have a Samsung Galaxy S III. |
58424 | Debugging the Android Browser Debugger | Normally, when I go to `about:debug` in the android browser the a prompt to expand the console appears at the top of the screen. On some pages of a site that I'm trying to debug, the console won't open. I've navigated to Settings > Debug and verified that "Show JavaScript Console" is checked, but the "SHOW JAVASCRIPT CONSOLE" prompt isn't appearing at the top of the screen, so I have seemingly no way of actually viewing the console. Have I stumbled on a bug, or is there something else that I'm forgetting to do to open the console? (If it makes any difference, I'm running this on an intranet development site with a domain along the lines of `foo.bar.local`) |
58422 | Lock screen launch bar not launching app, shows different icon too | This is an HTC One with Android 4.3 and Nova Launcher Prime (This may be a Nova issue, not sure yet) Since a picture is worth 1000 words, here is the pictures: Dragging an icon "up" from the lock screen is supposed to unlock the phone and launch the app. This worked fine until I changed SMS apps  Now when the phone is locked, it shows this funny little android icon instead of the Textra icon. Dragging the icon up unlocks the phone, but does not launch the app  Once the phone is unlocked, the proper icon shows (With the music and browser icons swapped) and clicking the textra icon launches the app properly. I'm going to contact the Nova developer with this as well, but was wondering if anyone had seen anything like this before. **UPDATE This now appears to be a bug or issue with Nova. Tried something I should have tried before asking, but I will update with the solution anyway. I dropped back to the default HTC Sense launcher and the Textra icon was not where it should be. I re-created the shortcut with the HTC launcher, then went back to Nova and got the proper icon and launch behavior. |

66244 | Wifi scanning for known networks that don't broadcast their SSID | When wifi is enabled, and the phone is not connected to a wifi network, it scans for known networks. I always thought that networks send out their SSID (like StarbucksWifi) and if this SSID is in the list of known networks on the phone, the phone tries to connect. Recently I found out that the phone actively tries to connect to known networks even if they are not available. Is it possible to block this last behavior? See another discussion on Information Security about this. |
24264 | What do the 2 pins on the back of the Nexus S do? | I'm really frustrated with a Nexus S turning off while in my pocket. I'm wondering if it has something to do with the pin positions, or these 2 strange back pins and contacts on the cover that don't seem to do anything:  I guess those tell the phone "the back cover is on", which must mean something to the phone. When I put a piece of paper between those pins and the back cover, the phone at least doesn't seem to do the (literal 5 minute) "flash disk check" when the phone comes on. Is blocking these pins from contacting a bad thing? Will it help to stop the phone from turning off in my pocket? |
1412 | I want a smart phone that I can lock in DNS settings. Is Android "the one" | It is all about being the internet boss.

77216 | How to identify the cause of entering Safe Mode? | I have a Motorola Xoom 3G tablet running Android 4.04 (latest system release) that has been stuck in 'safe mode' for some time now no matter how many times I restart the device. I have been through the apps list and uninstalled anything I could remember installing recently but still the problem persists. The device is primarily used as a wifi hotspot with my 3G internet around the house which still works fine - but I would also like to use the screen as an ereader from time to time - which the permanent 'safe mode' message gets in the way of. Is there any way of tracing the cause of this safe mode loop? Alternately is there a way of just getting rid of the 'safe mode' message while leaving it in safe mode? |

50595 | Galaxy S4 Video Recording: File Size Limit & Frequent Blurring | I'm trying to use Galaxy S4 as a video camera for recording offline usergroups. Apart from whether it's a good idea, it's generally succeeding, but there are some critical problems: * Android file system does not support files larger than 4GB. At 1280x720 resolution, this is about 40-something minutes, which is sometimes less than what I typically need (some sessions take 60+ minutes), which causes a sudden video stop, and if I'm conscious enough, I press the recording again, and lose about a minute or less in between. I'm thinking this problem might be solved by rooting the phone and buying one of the programs that allow mounting NTFS for Android, formatting an SD card as NTFS as well. Would you expect this to work? Any luck with any of this programs and recording to memory card? * Sometimes the phone blurs the text it records and afterwards the text becomes clear again. Sometimes this happens quite often that it becomes annoying to anyone watching the video. I have tried disabling video stabilization but this doesn't seem to improve it much. It still insists on blurring text at random times. It probably is trying to help me with some autofocus thing, but it's only doing harm. I'm short of ideas for this one. Anyone managed to stop it? Not sure if this should be split into 2 questions, but would appreciate help on either anyway. Thanks a lot. |
50592 | Decrypt my Micro SD Card | I have been looking every where for an answer to this. I had a Razor MAX with an encrypted card in it. Well I dropped that phone and it died on the spot.

35615 | Gmail - one notification for all new messages | I use the new Gmail app on my Galaxy s2. One notification for each new message s very annoying.

35618 | Can the Kindle app scroll mobi files vertically? | The Kindle Android app makes the mobi files scroll horizontally.

50598 | How to search Android Applications by size? | Is there any way I can search or filter android apps by size less than 1MB or 2MB on any android app store?

32963 | Only connect to certain Wi-Fi networks | I have a Bionic and recently upgraded from Gingerbread to ICS. I used to have my home Wi-Fi and my work Wi-Fi networks saved in my phone, and I had it set to not look for any other networks. I never got notified about Wi-Fi networks being in range, it just connected to those two when it could. Now that I'm on ICS I keep getting notifications about Wi-Fi networks being in range and the only way I've found to resolve that issue it to turn the wifi off completely. Problem is, then I forget to turn the wifi back on when I am at home or work. So my questions are: * Is there a setting to turn off the Wi-Fi notifications and I'm just looking right past it? * Is there a way to set up my phone to only connect to a couple of Wi-Fi networks and to ignore the other ones unless I go in and tell it to connect to them? |
32961 | Device always boots in recovery mode, but apparently there is no recovery partition | We have a BSNL Penta IS709c (cheapest tablet currently available / Oct 2012) running Android 4.0. Feeling adventurous, I issued `reboot recovery` through `adb` and the device tried to reboot in _recovery mode_. However turns out that there is probably no recovery partition and the device is stuck at following screen. Rebooting the device doesn't help and it always boots to following screen. So, what can I do to boot it back in normal mode? I'd also like to point out that this device does **not** has _Volume Up_ and _Volume Down_ buttons. Available 4 physical buttons are _Power/Home/Menu/Back_.  |

22314 | Why can I not pull an IPv6 address from T-Mobile? | I saw that T-Mobile has enabled IPv6 for its network, and I wanted to try it out. I dropped off my WiFi network, changed my APN to the IPv6-enabled APN (epc.tmobile.com) and was unable to pull an address. Turns out that they don't support it on this phone (a T-Mobile G2, a.k.a. HTC Vision/HTC Desire Z) yet; they say that only two phones work. So, I have a couple of queries which led me to post this question: * Is the IP engine for the EDGE and HSDPA radio actually on-chipset in this phone? * IPv6 was of course a known thing on the horizon when the phone was released, so if the previous question is a “yes”, then is it at least part of the radio firmware that can be upgraded? |

61739 | Location consent annoyance | I use the Power Control widget shipped with Android to quickly turn GPS on and off. Since update 4.4.1 or 4.4.2, which features WiFi-based location detection, it's been pestering me for this location consent thing:  Screenshot (click image for larger variant) I hit "Disagree" every single time, but it just pops right back up the next time I activate the GPS. This is extremely annoying and I'm worried I'll accidentally hit "Agree" one of these times. How can I permanently disagree with this? |
61737 | Light Flow not pushing email notifications to my Pebble | I've been trying to get everything set up on my new Nexus 5, and one of those things is getting notifications working properly, both on the phone itself as well as on my Pebble watch. One problem I'm having right now (which I basically bypassed with my previous phone) is getting Light Flow to push notifications to my Pebble. I know that Light Flow is handling notifications because the notification LED and vibrate settings are being used, but despite setting the "Send to Pebble" checkbox for the desired notifications, I'm not getting anything on my watch. I did have it working with my past phone, though. Before people ask in the comments, yes, I can still get notifications on my watch if they originate from the Pebble app. However, I can't set the Pebble app to a sleep mode like I can with Light Flow. There are also notifications that I can get from Light Flow that I can't get from the Pebble app, for instance low battery warning and lost cell connection that I also want. Also, 3rd party notifications are enabled in Pebble. **Since I know that both Light Flow and Pebble are working independently, why can't I get them to work together?** |

I've partitioned my SD in CWM recovery and I guess it was Ext3 partition. But one thing was mistake. I have checked in S2E checkbox says `mount sd-ext partition as Ext4` and everything was okay until I wanted to make backup from recovery. All part passed succesfully but `/sd-ext` and I've googled this thread says: > "clockworkmod doesn't support ext4 on the blade. ext3 works." Unticking that checkbox makes all unworkable.

23954 | Why I have problem downloading iso file in android? | Background: Our company monitor the network data usage and give warning to employee with high internet data usage. What I want to do is download the big file in my android phone because I have a unlimited data usage plan for it. I wanted to download some linux iso from the internet but I want to do it in my phone. I had downloaded some big files ( 200-300mb, exe files ) back in some weeks and they are successful. I just click the link inside Dolphin Browser HD and it automatically popped up a prompt-to-save. Today I tried to download some linux iso files ( 600-700mb ) and they were not successful either by clicking the link directly or put the link into a downloader app. But I can download them from my PC without problem ( of course I didn't download it actually ). Dolphin Browser HD's progress bar stopped at about 1/10 and keeping loading, finally said "Web Page not available". And the downloader said cannot connect to the server. Do you have any idea?

Phone, Groups, Contacts, and Favorites and by default it opens the Contacts. Is there a way (a setting) to opening the "Groups" view as default instead? **If not** is there a another compatible Contact management application that can be recommended to give me more control over groups etc. The primary purpose of this question is to answer about the settings, not to provide me with a long list iof Apps.

74746 | Galaxy S3 requesting "key password" | My samsung-galaxy-s3 is asking for a key password when I try to send an email via gmail. It never asked before, but my phone had a software update and now it seems to need this password and I don't have it. What do I do now? |
74741 | nexus 7 volume keeps muting | At completely random times the on screen volume slider appears and mutes the sound. Also the slider just stays on screen over anything I'm doing (as it is now) and will not disappear. Sometimes touching the volume rocker switch will work, often it doesn't. So even if I don't need any sound the slider is on screen interfering with whatever I'm trying to look at. Rebooting doesn't help. This occurs whether any apps are running or none and there is no way of telling when this will happen. Also if I do want to listen to something the slider will just appear and return to mute, so if I try to turn the volume up with the rocker switch it just immediately slides back to mute. It's happening more frequently, pretty much all the time now. I had hoped the recent KitKat upgrade would resolve it, but no luck. I have taken it out of its case so there is nothing pressing on the buttons. This is the old style nexus with one camera. What could cause this, and how can it be solved? |
74740 | Confirming the nature of a Samsung update, and declining it | I find it a little bit offensive to receive a "Software Update" message on my Galaxy Note 2 that does not disclose the nature of the update (an OS update? an app update?).  software update message (click image for larger variant) Judging by the timing, the chatter, and especially the size, I am guessing Samsung is pushing a 4.4 (KitKat) update, but given the lousy experience of reduced battery performance after upgrading from 4.1 to 4.3 (including giving a chance for recalibration with many full discharge/recharge cycles), I'd rather avoid 4.4 for now. My question is in two parts: 1. How do I confirm that this is indeed KitKat being pushed? 2. How do I decline the update, or at least delay it by longer than three hours?  3 hour max delay (click image for larger variant) |

Then I press "Merge calls", but the phone gives the message "unable to conference calls". Why would this be? Interestingly, this doesn't always happen. Sometimes it succeeds, and gives me a conference call with a "Manage" icon in the middle. So, why would it sometimes fail? |
65922 | How to uninstall "not installed" apps | I just found out that some apps that I uninstall from my tablet are still listed in "all apps" section by my device, although marked as "not installed":  Apps List (click image for larger variant) How can I fully remove them? Please note that those are not system apps or pre-installed apps by manufacturer. |
65921 | Proximity sensor always 0 or 9cm. Could this be a hardware or software problem? | The proximity sensor on my phone always gives a distance value of 0 or 9cm (using both Z Device Test and CPU-Z). In sunlight, the sensor gives a reading of 9cm. Anywhere else (in shade, indoors, etc) the reading alternates between 0 and 9cm, and rather quickly. In intervals of about 2 seconds. If I cover the sensor with my thumb then reading is 0 as it should be. Soon as I remove my thumb the screen begins to flash. I have tried using Resound Proximity Sensor to calibrate but failed. Could this be a software problem that I could fix myself? |

32341 | Is there a way to determine whether a source for rooting instructions is reliable? | I'm considering rooting an ATT S3, and came across this guide: The guide links to some file that is supposed to contain both a file to be copied into the phone and the tools for flashing the CWM. Are there any reasonable assurances that this file and tools are free of malware? Are there any peer reviewed sources that I could use with a greater degree of trust? |
32340 | Unable to hear caller when using native internet (SIP) calling on Jelly Bean | I am using the native internet calling feature provided on Jelly Bean. (I believe this feature has been available since Gingerbread.) I can make outgoing calls without issue. Since my SIP account is connected to a PSTN (i.e. phone number) I can also receive calls. However, when I answer an incoming call the calling party can hear me, but I cannot hear the caller on the other end. My guess is that this is some kind of NAT problem. See here, for example. With other third-party SIP apps it is possible to use STUN to eliminate the problem. I don't see any corresponding options for the native SIP interface, though. So I have two related questions: **1\. Is it possible to enable/use STUN with native internet calling?** **2\. How can I troubleshoot problems with native internet calling?** |

32346 | How do you set the Swype keyboard to delete the entire word when the delete button is held down? | Older version did this but now it only happens to the first word. "If I have a sentence like this" and wanted to delete all the way to "If I" I could have held down the delete key and after a second it would start deleting word by word. |
32348 | How to mimic tilt & shake controls in BlueStacks? | I am running BlueStacks (beta-1) on an old Windows laptop which doesn't have accelerometer & gravity sensor. Many Android games support physical key mapping using which I can use physical keyboard of my Laptop to play Android games. If a game doesn't support key mapping, I can still play it.. not always effectively, but I can play it. Tap, long tap, swipe is fine with mouse. When it comes to tilt & shake controls, many games like Ripetide GP allows to switch to touch-based controls. The problem arises when tilt & shake controls are mandatory. For example, I can't play Temple Run after few meters because of that. How to mimic tilt & shake controls? **Update:** My laptop features `free-fall protection` which I guess utilises some kind of accelerometer. I don't know how accurate it is in non-linear dimension, but can it be utilized with BlueStacks? |
52995 | Can't use ADB with Nexus 4 after 4.3 update | Here's a funky issue. I've been using ADB without any problems on 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 on my Nexus 4 (Stock Android and some CM10-based ROMs). When I flashed a CM10.2-based rom (JellyBro, I believe?) a few months ago, I was never able to get ADB to work, so I restored a nandroid of my previous setup. After a while, I decided to flash the stock 4.3 image and see if I still have the problem. I do. The setup? * Phone: Nexus 4 * Phone OS: Android 4.3 (Factory) * Computer OS: Linux Mint 15 Okay, the problem? * I cannot use ADB with my N4 on 4.3. * I cannot authorize my computer with my device. What have you tried so far? * I just tried to use the default feature. The phone should prompt to authorize my computer, but I never get a prompt. I checked /data/misc/adb/ and the directory was empty. * Even so, I decided to click the "Revoke USB debugging authorizations" option in Developer options. * I copied ~/.android/adbkey.pub from my Linux box and put its contents in a new file named /data/misc/adb/adb_key on my device. * When that didn't work, I rebooted the device. * When that didn't work, I disabled/enabled ADB on the device. * When that didn't work, I killed adb on my computer, then restarted it. * When a-c didn't work, I did them all sequentially before trying again, which also didn't work. * Exactly the same as above, but put it in /data/misc/adb/adb_keys intead of adb_key (because XDA and other sites cite both filenames). * Clicked the "Revoke USB debugging authorizations" button again. Rebooted the phone, killed ADB on my computer. Still no prompts to authorize. * It only removed /data/misc/adb/adb_keys, not adb_key. So I'm pretty sure adb_key is the wrong filename (despite being cited at a frequency on par with the correct name). * Update my platform-tools and Android SDK packages. No dice. * Can't actually update; I have the most recent version (18.0.1) * Remove and reinstall platform-tools. No dice. * By the way, my permissions for the adb_keys file are 300. Owner is root. Group is root. Or in other terms: ls -l adb_keys -rw------- root root Are you sure this is only happening to you on 4.3? * Yes. I have no problems after installing any 4.2 rom with recovery, or the 4.2.2 factory image with fastboot. And it's exactly the same issue with factory 4.3 or a 4.3-based ROM? * Yes. Although I've only tried two or three roms, plus the factory image. There may be a magical rom out there somewhere that does work though. Have you tried any other devices? * I tested adb with my girlfriend's 2012 Nexus 7 running 4.3. It had no issues at all. Any other computers? * Unfortunately no. I only have my Linux Mint 15 box. * * * Okay, so that's basically the gist of it. Does anyone else have any clever ideas? (Or does anyone see where I was an idiot and made a mistake?) File transfers over MTP also work fine. Flashing the 20130910 nightly build of PAC-man actually gave me working ADB without the need to authorize my computer at all. This is fortunate, but the original question is still up in the air: Why can't I get it to work on stock? |
39870 | How can I automatically set up Android as USB storage only when connected to my PC? | How can I set up Android to automatically act as USB storage only when connected to my computer (or other "known" devices), without asking additional questions? I want to have those questions on other computers (charging by default). I understand the questions are for the security reasons, but I trust my machine, so I don't need to answer any questions each time. The device is rooted, cyanogenmod 7, Tasker and Locale installed. |
39871 | how to capture any .apk download | We are seeking a reliable method to get the .apk file for any arbitrary application that may currently exist on Google Play store. ("legit" reasons may be e.g. to later restore to _application v8_ even if only _application v11_ is available to public). I am not aware of any utility that can do this, so one approach might be to capture all packets which cross your wireless network to your Android device, like when the user installs an app from Play store. So we want to see if it's possible to capture all .apk files downloaded to the Android device upon user install from Play. 1. which wireless capture utility should you use (e.g. pcap?), and should it be run from your Android or some other machine? 2. how do you reassemble a .apk file from a sequence of frames? 3. Is there any encryption of data that would prevent the capture of the .apk file? 4. Is there an easier way to get an .apk? Tried the emulator but it doesn't work for all apps. `adb backup` gives a compressed `.ab` file, but we want the `.apk` itself in extracted form, and not buried in some `.ab` compressed file. |
39872 | Creating a .dd image of a Galaxy S3 without rooting the phone | I'm working for my university's CS Department, and we've got a Digital Forensics project which requires us to create a one-to-one .dd image of a T-Mobile Galaxy S3 (Jellybean 4.1), so that we can recover some deleted data. I've done some Googling, and called Samsung, but I haven't been able to find any way to create an uncompressed image without rooting, and we can't root the phone without dealing with some legal ramifications. Does anyone know of a program that can get the image without rooting? |

39877 | MicroSD card performance during boot | I have a Nook HD+ and a Nook HD. When I ran CyanogenMod off of a MicroSD card, the Class I (43MB/s) doesn't even boot! I spent $30 on a 32GB one. The Class 10 (10MB/s) 16GB booted, but ran poorly The Class 4 (4MB/s) 16GB ran perfectly. A co-worker said that there were problems with newer classes and the phones / tablets. My question is: Why is this so? Is there a fix for this? What are the recommendations for good-performing MicroSD cards? My co-worker said Sandisk Class 4 were the best, of which I have one more to play with. |
26110 | Preventing syncing of Google+ contacts to Galaxy S3 | Have done my bit of research but couldn't find a good solution. When I sync the contacts with my primary Gmail account, the Contacts get filled with all of my Google Contacts including those from Google+ (1000s of them) which I obviously do not want to be in my phone. How do I prevent this from happening ? 1. I do not want to create a new Google account just as a workaround 2. Have tried to locate the possibility of syncing just with a specific group. But can't find it in S3 3. I do not prefer 3rd party contact managers |
26116 | Jelly Bean offline voice recognition | So, Jelly Bean is supposed to have offline voice recognition, right? I've encountered several situations where the voice-keyboard has said that Google is not available. Has anyone else seen this behavior? If so, how do we fix it? I've noticed the problem in areas where I have questionable mobile data or wifi access. If I have a good wifi / mobile data signal **OR** if I enable airplane mode (disabling data completely), then it all seems to work ok. I'm using a GSM Samsung Galaxy Nexus, FYI. |
26118 | Google+ instant upload screenshots | I just switched to using Cyanogenmod 9 on my HTC EVO 4G (and it works very well!). In CM7 and with other (stock included) ROMs, when I took a screenshot, it was automatically added to the Instant Upload reel in the Google+ app. **I liked this.** After switching, the screenshots no longer upload, even on forced "Upload All". I suspect it is because they are being saved to a location which is not scanned by the G+ app for instant upload. So does anyone know how to force a folder to be included? Or to change the default screenshots folder? **EDIT:** Note, my screenshots are being saved to `Pictures/Screenshots/`, which, to my knowledge based on Zuul's post, is included in the MediaScanner. Still no screenshots uploading. **UPDATE:** Found this talking about a `.nomedia` file, and tried to scan the `Screenshots` folder, but there is no such file to be found. |
63806 | Strange chinese menu on Lenovo IdeaTab S6000 - how proceed? | ## Context I just skyped with my mother (far away) because her android-tablet (running 4.2) showed a strange menu with chinese/japanese/asian characters, almost like a bootloader. My short troubleshoot history looks like this: * When pressing the volume-keys, the displayed content changed, at one point the text contained `GPS`, so I assumed it would be some kind of "hidden troubleshoot menu" for showing system information. * A restart was possible after pressing and holding the standby-button, after restarting everything seemed untouched. * Just to make sure we changed her passwords. * She did not visit any suspicious websites, nor did she install any apps recently. With my little knowledge so far I do not feel able to rule out an attack or a trojan app, from what I can see she could have activated the strange menu by accident. Via internet research I only found one individual with the same problem, but no solution at all. ## Question(s) What can I do to determine the cause? Should I contact the provider/manufacturer? Is it safe to assume that her data & accounts are not compromised? I know it is little information, so please bare with me, I just want to prevent damage. Thanks for any advice. ## TL;DR Lenovo IdeaTab showed strange chinese/asian-symbols-menu, gone after reboot, do what now? |
63802 | Odin3 says phone is successfully rooted but I have no root access | I'm attempting to Root my Galaxy S3 to try and breath new life in to it (I don't want to upgrade if I don't have to). I've followed the steps detailed in this post and the results seemed to suggest that everything had worked, as you can see in the screen shot, however when I check using the Root Checker app it states - > **Root Access** \- no access Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't find anything that I can understand, so I'd be grateful if someone can help me fix this problem.  * * * **Update** Below are two screen shots taken after the above root process. On the left is the aforementioned Root Checker app, showing no access. And on the right is a warning shown when I open the SuperSU app. I have indeed just updated to 4.3, so I'm guessing I'd need to go down the manually re-root app, but I have no idea what the relevant forum would be.  |

Screenshot (click image for larger variant) I want to block them, but I have no idea how are they called. I'm looking for a way to block this messages, either via an app (doesn't matter if it needs root) or programatically (if I can detect these messages, perhaps I would be able to create an app to block them). EDIT: The message icon is the same as the SIM Toolkit. Could this be related? As far as I know, Cell Broadcasts don't show with "OK" and "Cancel" buttons as this message. |
75162 | Android full hibernation | I wonder is there a way to hibernate Android tablet as if it were a usual desktop computer, that is to save its current state on the disk for the quick restoration after complete shutdown? I really miss this feature for my tablet, which boots slowly and discharges quickly even being in the sleep mode. I know that there are power managers available, but as far as my tablet has no SIM card even, I'd prefer to switch it off completely to really minimize battery use. Thanks. |
3422 | Will the Android OS Support Higher-Resolution Screens? | As of Android 2.2, the screen resolution for an Android device is capped at 854x480, which has pretty much become the standard resolution for recent Android handsets.

2007 | How can I make the Swype keyboard type "I" when I press "i", now it types "ki"? | I am using the Swype keyboard preloaded on my at&t Captivate (Samsung Galaxy S) phone and I like it a lot. My only problem is that when I try to write `I` I'm used to just pressing `i` and letting the phone capitalize it. However Swype routinely writes `ki` when I am trying to write `I`. I am wondering if anyone else has this problem and if they know how to fix it? Also, is there a way for me to remove `ki` from Swype's internal dictionary so it'll never attempt to write it? It might be useful to modify that dictionary for other reasons too, so I can add personal names, local street names, etc. Is there an auto text replacement app that I can use to always change `ki` to `I`? Thanks! |
4858 | iPhone-style "Stocks" app? | I was playing around with a friend's iPhone the other day. I'm a total anti- Apple, but I can recognize niceties when I see them. The Stocks app on the iPhone seemed much more concise and useful than any I've tried on Android. Specifically I like how it is laid out with all your pertinent information right there. Symbol, price, and change. **WITH** the chart also shown on the screen. The little top section with the symbols is scrollable within its own space if you have more than fit in it, but the chart stays where it is. Does anyone know if there is a port (or highly similar app) of the iPhone's "Stocks" app available for Android? Ideally, it needs to be an app which can also handle symbols for mutual funds well (with charting), as my investments are all in mutual funds, not direct stocks. I've tried the Yahoo stocks app, Google's, TD Bank's and most recently E*TRADE's. But they all seem to have a very cluttered feel, or don't bring together your basic information all in one place leaving you to flip between several screens. Cheers, and thanks!  |

4851 | Video Player with support for audio channels? | I have recorded a TV show with dual channels (left is dubbed, right is original voice) and then converted into a mp4 file. The movie plays fine in VLC where I can choose the audio channel I want to listen too. On my Galaxy Tab the movie plays fine too (with several apps: the built in Video app, Rockplayer, Doubletwist and Vplayer), but I haven't found a Video app that lets me choose the audio channel; it's a little difficult to watch the movie with two difficult audio tracks in your left and right ear... Are there other apps I could try? Or is there some utility that would let me redirect only the left or right channel to both ears? |

71668 | execute permissions on fuse/fat filesystem | I've successfully cross-compiled Ruby for Android and everything goes ok in the emulator. But while I'm testing these funny things on my device (Nexus4) I noticed that `/sdcard` (or `/storage/emulated/0`) is a fuse mount with no execution permissions. How can I execute something on the SD card? I saw that on Linux you can pass it as argument to the linker. In Android this does not work: `/system/bin/linker` wants a pointer to a special struct. I believe that I can write a small C program that creates that structure and run the linker to execute a readable program. But what about shared libraries? Ruby load tens of shared libraries (every time you have a "require"), I bet that execute permissions are required for loading shared libraries. Moving the executable to `/data/data/my.app.name/files/` or any other place is not a solution, my binaries are very fat (statically linked) and users should be free to specify any location where storing them. |
71666 | Will encryption encrypt my "internal sdcard" (personal data)? | First, a note. This question stems from the big confusion that are terms like _internal storage_ , _internal sdcard_ \-- at least to me -- and the fact that **factory reset** , which claims to "erase all data from your phone's internal storage, including [...] music, photos", doesn't touch my personal data (data in the _internal sdcard_ , like camera media and WhatsApp conversations) **at all**. I don't use removable SD cards, by the way. When I say _internal sdcard_ , I refer to `/sdcard` or `/data/media/0`, which are equivalent in my Samsung I9300 Galaxy SIII running CM11 nightly (KitKat). Okay, the question: will encrypting actually encrypt the entire internal storage including _internal sdcard_ and all the rest (entire root filesystem) or will it encrypt only the data which would be affected by a factory reset (which seems to me to be only the /data/data directory)? |
71661 | xbox360 wireless controller on android | I try to install xbox360 wireless controller for PC on my android device(android 4.0 or above).

14179 | Multiple Google Accounts and the Market | I have multiple Google accounts like below: 1. Account A (my primary account). 2. Account B 3. Account C I only have the extra two accounts for gmail (via Google Apps for domains) and don't use them for anything else. I only want to use Account A on the market. I currently have an annoying issue where the market app keeps using Account B, so I end up downloading things to Account B by mistake. Is there anyway I can remove these other accounts from the market or set some sort of default account? Thanks **Update** : I know that I can press menu in the market app and select a different account, but this is annoying because it defaults to Account B. My crazy theory is that when looking for updates (in the background), it first checks Account A and then B. Because it checked account B last it leaves that as the active one. Account C has never downloaded an app so it doesn't check for updates. |
