Samsung galaxy s3 kernel version
I just completely reset my phone. When I checked the _About Device_ section, it among other things shows: Kernel version 3.0.31-2168382 se.infra@R0301-02 #1 Thu Nov 28 21:02:26 KST 2013 Is this normal or should I be worried that my phone has been hacked or something?

Gmail 4.6 Does not allow "From"/Sender address to be changed to a different email address
I did see this question, but it was from two years ago, so I know it does not apply to my question. Before the 10/1/2013 update, I was able to easily switch my sender email account to a different email address, but now, I can't. I have checked the settings in the app and for the email account. Is there a setting somewhere in 4.6 that I am missing or did Google kill this feature for the mobile version? If my question isn't clear, I apologize, and please let me know how I can improve it. I'm using: Nexus 4, Android 4.3 After further investigation, it may be broken: gmail forum post Thanks.

Wired xbox controller not working with LG G2
My boyfriend purchased a USB OTG cable so he can play Android games with an Xbox 360 wired controller. When he plugs the Xbox controller into his LG G2 nothing happens, I plugged it into my Samsung Galaxy S4 and it worked immediately. His LG G2 recognizes a flash drive, keyboard and mouse right away so we know the cable is working just fine. What could be causing the Xbox controller to not work? The AT&T LG G2 is rooted running 4.2.2 with stock ROM. The Keylayout file `vendor_045e_product.028e.kl` used for the Xbox 360 wired controller was already on the phone. Running the app titled "USB Device Info" with the Xbox 360 wired controller plugged in shows the controllers info in both the Android and Linux tabs. The device seems to recognize everything it's supposed to but won't work with any games or emulators. It wont even allow the controller to navigate the home screen.

Which app is issuing a "Synchronization successful" popup?
Every now and then I get a "Synchronization successful" box overlaid on top of whatever app I'm running at the moment, including fullscreen apps such as games or Netflix. (So to clarify, it's not a drop-down notification). I do have a quite a lot of apps, and some of these do some kind of frequent "synchronization" (e.g. UberSync for Facebook, Sms Backup+, etc.). I've gone through their options several times and I couldn't find any obvious option. So my questions are: * is anyone else getting this? is the culprit well known? * is there some way to figure out which app is issuing this overlay, short of selectively disabling them until it disappears? I'm running Android 4.3 on a Nexus 4 phone but I've had this problem on 4.2 as well.

Standalone program for managing encrypted partitions? Or, How can I manage encrypted partitions in recovery mode?
Android uses dm-crypt for providing disk-encryption as stated in the implementation notes. Those notes also state (emphasis mine): > While the actual encryption work is a standard linux kernel feature, > enabling it on an Android device proved somewhat tricky. The **Android > system tries to avoid incorporating GPL components, so using the cryptsetup > command or libdevmapper were not available options**. So making the > appropriate ioctl(2) calls into the kernel was the best choice. The Android > volume daemon (vold) already did this to support moving apps to the SD card, > so I chose to leverage that work for whole disk encryption. The actual > encryption used for the filesystem for first release is 128 AES with CBC and > ESSIV:SHA256. The master key is encrypted with 128 bit AES via calls to the > openssl library. > > Once it was decided to put the smarts in vold, it became obvious that > invoking the encryption features would be done like invoking other vold > commands, by adding a new module to vold (called cryptfs) and teaching it > various commands. The commands are checkpw, restart, enablecrypto, changepw > and cryptocomplete. They will be described in more detail below. So Android does not an existing tool due to licensing issues... As a user in recovery mode, I do not have `vold` running and would like to have a minimum program that can: 1. Create a new encrypted partition. 2. Unlock existing encrypted partitions. 3. (optional) View information about the encrypted partition. Does such a program exist? Ideally it can also run in a non-Android environment, but at the moment it is important to create an encrypted partition in recovery mode. The subject OS is Android 4.2.2 with CWM 6.0.3.2 as recovery image.

Why does Android offer updates for all the gmail accounts on the phone?
I have multiple gmail accounts on my phone and I get Market and other updates listed for each of these accounts. That is simply annoying. How can I disable that and instead set one account as my primary account for updates and such like?

Save image/video thumbnails to external storage
How can I save image/video thumbnails to external storage on my android device? Although the image directory of my galaxy s3 device was set to `storage/exSdCard/DCIM/Camera` it seems that image and video thumbnails are saved to `storage/sdcard0/DCIM/.thumbnails` by default. The images and videos are saved to proper location but their thumbnails are always saved to the system generated default location of internal storage card. The problem wasn't solved even after I moved the `stock camera app` & `cameradata folder` from `system->app` to `data->app` and `DCIM` folder from internal storage `sdcard0` to external storage `exSdCard`. Any idea or resolution? Thanks,

Mount external SD-card for the secondary user
When I create a new user on my Asus MemMO Pad 10 (in addition to the existing primary user), the new user does not "see" the external SD card (I've tried a 64gb Micro-SDXC/exFAT and a 2gb Micro-SD/FAT32). When I switch to the primary user, "Preparing an external device" is displayed at the top of the screen and the SD card becomes "visible" as "external device". I.e. external SD card is not automatically mounted to the secondary user, only for primary one. Is this a feature of the Android system or ASUS tablets only? How can I make my Micro-SD card mount for the secondary user? (In case I need root access, I would consider installing it) Device: ASUS MeMO Pad 10 (ME102A), Android 4.2.2, root access not installed. * * * _Sorry for my English_

How to upgrade stock email client that came with CyanogenMod 6 Froyo?
For reasons beyond my control, I need to stick with the original stock email client that came with my CyanogenMod 6 phone (Froyo). (by "stick with" I mean only the so called "package name", not that particular version) I know that there are superior email clients out there on Google Play, but all I want at this point is to stick with the same client and only update it to a later version. My problem is... I can't find it anywhere on Google Play as it doesn't have any distinct name other than the generic "Email" and this icon. Is there a way to identify this app and find it on Google Play (or other Android markets)?

Note taking app with handwriting recognition that includes math typesetting (latex preferably)?
Is there some notetaking app that can recognize math and typeset the result using latex? I recently came across with this website: [1] http://www.reddit.com/tb/p88ty that does recognize equations and display them using Latex and MathJax, but it's not a full fledged note taking app. I do a lot of draft calculations (I'm a physicist) and if I could replace pencil and paper for my android tablet this would be a major organizational upgrade in my life. :P I've tried a few notetaking apps (Quill and Supernote are the best ones I could find), that are ok, but none of them have handwriting recognition (with or without mathematical symbols). Is there such an app that works like Quill, can save notes with multiple pages and would convert it to typeset text and math?

Mail app stuck at "in progress"
I'm trying to configure the mail app in Android 4/ICS with my IMAP account, but I get stuck at "in progress" after setting up the SMTP server. These are the exact steps I'm going through: 1. Open the mail app. 2. Go to settings. 3. Click the plus sign in the top right hand side corner. 4. Enter my email address and password. Check "Push notification" and "Send from this account by default". Click "Next". 5. It says "Retrieving account information" for a while before giving up and asking me "POP3 or IMAP account?" I choose IMAP. 6. I enter the correct IMAP server name and check "Use SSL". The port changes to 993, which is correct. I leave NTLM authentication unchecked. 7. I enter the correct SMTP server, which just happens to be smtp.euromail.se. I leave the port at its default of 25, no SSL, no authentication. Now it just sits there saying "In progress..." forever. I've tried starting over several times, but it always chokes at the last step. How do I solve this? These same settings work just fine in K-9 Mail.

Change title of phone when connected to Windows PC
I inherited my Samsung Galaxy S4 phone from the employee who preceded me in my current position. When I connect the phone to my Windows 7 laptop, it displays in Devices and Printers with a name matching that of the former employee. There are none of his accounts left on the phone. The phone is running Android 4.3. How do I change the name of the phone I see in Devices and Printers? **UPDATE** : I think this name is a Windows setting. I think I was seeing an old title, from when the phone had accounts belonging to the other employee. There was another device under Devices & Printers called Galaxy S4. I right-clicked on the device with the old employee's name, clicked uninstall. When I disconnect and reconnect my phone I no longer see a device with the old employee's name, but I do see "Galaxy S4".

How to show only gmail's contacts in the Contacts app?
I have recently reinstalled Android due to some problems with the SD Card. I decided to keep all my contacts **only** in Gmail, as a centralized solution to avoid problems in the future. I do **not** want other SIM or phone contacts to show in the contacts list anymore. However if I try to uncheck both the SIM and phone contacts and I _do_ check all possible google contacts groups ~~and the option for showing only contacts with a phone number~~ 1, **no** contact is shown at all. Note: If I show also the phone contacts them the google contacts _are_ shown (and thus I have some duplicates), but removing the phone contacts removes the google contacts too. How can I prevent this? The phone is a B63M. _Edit_ : since people keep asking the same information: # The contacts are perfectly synched and all under the _My contacts_ group. It's **not** a synchronisation problem. I'm asking why I _must_ select the _show phone contacts_ in order to see _any_ contact at all (from whichever source you like. Even SIM. I _cannot_ show only the SIM contacts without the _show phone contacts_ enabled.) * * * 1 Having or not this option active doesn't change anything. Even if it is not active no contact is shown. * * * **Updated** To make things clearer, here are some screenshots of the situation: Here I have set _only_ the phone contacts ( _Contatti del telefono_ in Italian), without google contacts: ![Screenshot of contacts App showing the phone contacts and related options](http://i.stack.imgur.com/DtwL9.png) Here I have added the google contacts in the options _and they are shown_ (see red rectangles. Note the number of contacts at the top going from 116 to 156): ![Screenshot of contacts App showing the phone and the google contacts and related options](http://i.stack.imgur.com/ovfPg.png) Now, I'd expect that removing the phone contacts I should see only the google contacts (in this case those that above have red rectangles and the other not shown), but this is what I get: ![Screenshot of the contacts App not showing any contact and related options saying to show only \(and all\) google contacts](http://i.stack.imgur.com/c69tJ.png) On the right it just says that there are no contacts to show and that I can add new contacts or import/export from other sources. What should I do such that this last set of options _does_ show the google contacts?

Google play website shows all Apps under "My Apps" as "Installed" even uninstalled ones
I am looking at "My Apps" in Google Play Store and Google Play website. In Google Play Store, it marks properly the apps that are currently installed as "installed" and the apps which have tried earlier and uninstalled shows up with a "x" mark that deletes the selected app from "My Apps" list. But in Google Play website, it shows "installed" for all apps under "My Apps". Is there any option to see the uninstalled apps in google play store?

Smartphone App running on Tablet
We recently bought an Android Shopping App for Smartphones (supporting 2.2 to current version). Sadly, the app ist not available for tablets. Is it just a button in the IDE to create a tablet version (not tablet optimized) or is there much more to do? For example: every iOS iPhone App is running on an iPad (looks ugly, but works)

How capture/log API calls (function calls) made by an Android app?
I have installed an app on AVD (Android emulator). Is there a way to get to know the API calls (functions calls) made by the app when I play around with it on the AVD (emulator)? Is there a way I can log/capture all the API calls (function calls) made by the app as I interact with it? Perhaps there's some tool that can capture the flow of the application in terms of API calls (function calls). For example if there is a messaging app, then the typical operations would be 1. launch app 2. write message 3. send message so I want to capture the api calls corresponding to when [1] i.e. when the app is launched; then log/capture api calls when [2] i.e. write message; finally what api calls were made when I do [3] i.e. hit send button.

install missing apps after installing rom?
I've installed a new ROM. In the previous times I've done this, Play reinstalled them once the phone booted. But this time it didn't (I've tried reinstalling the ROM a second time to make sure). I have a backup of all these apps in Titanium, but I can't find a feature to install missing apps (just "restore" them, which apparently means just restoring settings & data for those already installed) Is there anything I can do other than going to 'my apps' in Play and installing them one by one (I have many)?

Help get SC-91JB Android tablet back - restore / recovery
My friend brought me his granddaughter's tablet a couple weeks ago and it was stuck at the Android logo screen, just gray "android" text with white highlight moving across repeatedly. I already had adb from some stuff I was doing on another Android tablet some time ago. I was able to connect to the tablet using adb. I searched around and found the `adb shell wipe data` command and that got the table working again. Gave tablet back to little girl and everyone happy. He just brought me the tablet again, same problem, I tried the same solution. This time it did not work. After wiping data, the table still gets stuck at the Android logo. This time I found `echo -e 'boot-recovery\0' > /dev/block/nandf; sync`, issued the command from within adb shell, rebooted, and got an android on his back with a green triangle / exclamation point. I hit the Home button and got into the recovery menu, but the only thing I could do was to reboot. **WHAT MAKES THIS EXTRA TRICKY IS THAT THIS TABLET HAS NO VOLUME BUTTON(S), ONLY POWER AND HOME.** After rebooting, I got the Android logo again. I can still get into adb, so there are signs of life, I just don't know how to proceed. Manufacturer support seems to be non-existent. Don't know how to find a proper factory image to restore the tablet. Don't want to just start hacking and brick it forever. I don't really know anything about Android but I am a pretty good (i.e. OLD, haha) computer guy and have general familiarity with operating systems, UNIX/Linux/Posix commands, and hardware. I should be able to follow instructions if anybody out there can walk me through this. **ANY HELP APPRECIATED! THANKS! -Marty** p.s. Following is output from the wipe data. I do not recall if I received similar error messages a couple weeks ago when the wipe data fixed the tablet.

Modify shorcut or executable?
My car is a Chevrolet, and uses the Mylink radio system. It basically comes with some shortcuts (fixed) to run certain (limited) apps on an Android phone and show the phone's screen on the stereo car screen. I want to run any app of the phone in the car screen. So, my question is: Is it possible to change the executable or shortcut on the phone to run another app? For instance, my car can call an app called Bringgo. Can I change on the phone the shortcut or executable name to run Google maps instead Bringgo? So, If I tap the Bringgo icon on the phone, Google maps should run. I think should be something like a symlink in Linux. I have a rooted s3 mini, with CM 11.

Android phone can't access anything through VPN
I have a Galaxy S (Android 2.1 Update 1), and a Windows 7 Pro machine configured to allow incoming connections (i.e the built-in PPTP VPN functionality). I can establish a VPN connection to the laptop from the phone however I can't ping it or access a simple HTTP service running on 8081. Windows Firewall doesn't seem to be the issue as it doesn't work with it turned off either. It makes no difference if I use my house Wifi or disable that on the phone and connect via the phone's broadband connection. I notice via IPCONFIG on the laptop that the subnet for the phone's RAS connection is 255.255.255.255 whereas the network is 255.255.255.0 - could this be a problem?

Is there an app or method that would allow me to uninstall a bunch at a time?

Android not registering A and PTR records with DNS server
I have been running ISC BIND and DHCP servers on my private lan for quite some time now. Recently, I configured the two servers to enable Dynamic DNS updates to my private zone. It seems to be working, as a couple of laptops and my old phone (Motorola Droid, rooted with an older version of CyanogenMod) did register their A and PTR records with my DNS server. However, my current phone (Samsung Charge, rooted with Eclipse ROM v2.0) is NOT registering with my DNS server. I have noticed that in my lease cache (excerpted below), my Charge doesn't have any of the DDNS related entries that the other leases do. I'm thinking that the Charge, for whatever reason, isn't passing it's hostname to the DHCP server. Unfortunately, I'm not sure how to confirm this suspicion, much less correct the behavior if I'm right. Any help in resolving this would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Phone stuck on Google logo after trying to install Jelly Bean
I have a Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0.1 I tried to install Jelly Bean, and followed all instructions I found on a website (forgot which one). I installed cwh and twh first. Then I installed Jelly Bean. After the installation I rebooted my phone and it got stuck on a cross with the four colors for more than one hour. So I tried to remove all of this (Jelly Bean, twh). But now it's stuck on Google logo. I tried everything. I don't know what to do to make my phone work. I flashed it but it's not working. Can you help me? (A stressed student who cannot pay for the repairs) Thank you , I really need an answer By the way, I have a mac.

How can I increase the size of the Google Maps cache?
Currently the size of the Google Maps cache on Android is very small in comparison to the IPhone Maps application. A bigger cache would improve the maps application significantly by helping the maps appear a lot quicker than they do now. There is an issue raised on Google Code with some further details (link) but wanted to raise it here just in case anyone knows a solution.

To add widgets from the app drawer, launchers need to be installed in /system. Why?
ICS' stock launcher, Apex, Nova and Trebuchet all support adding widgets by dragging them from the app drawer. However they can only do this if they are installed as a system app. One of them - I think Nova - also provides a helper app that can be installed in /system while the rest of the app remains a regular app. Why can't normally installed launchers provide this feature?

Forcing applications (games) to run at a low resolution
I own a Galaxy Nexus and the performance of a few "HD" games is horrible. Even with a bus overclocked kernel from here: http://www.derkernel.com/jb-tuna.php Is there any way to maybe force apps to run on a lower resolution, say 540x960, without losing my app data? Are there any ROMs out there which allow you to do so?

Inconsistent UIDS and wiping a data partition
I've inherited my wife's Android phone (GT540) when she got a newer, shining one :-) We ~~think to~~ have **factory** reset it (via the privacy option), and in fact it has finally stopped to refer to her account and all the pics are gone. But I keep getting a warning message, about inconsistent UIDs and the need of wiping the data partition to be sure. I can click on the only button "I am feeling lucky" to continue, without noticing particular issues. ~~Obviously, as per Murphy, the message is not popping up right now, so I can't copy it verbatim :-) Will edit the question when it comes out again.~~ * * * # EDIT The precise message is: > System UIDs inconsistent > > UIDs on the system are inconsistent, you need to wipe your data partition or > your device will be unstable. And it is followed by the unexpected crash of the Market application (processocom.android.vending). So: 1. what is happening? what data partition is actually worrying it? Wasn't the reset "hard enough"? 2. what could happen, what UIDs is it referring to? 3. how can I fix it? I have a new SD card, which is as far as I can tell empty. I would have liked to format it before using it, but the option is not available: I can only unmount it. Is this (missed) formatting the required wiping to reset the UIDs? Or is it a completely different thing, which I will search/ask in a later question? Being new to the Android system I don't know if any other info are missing. The kernel is 2.6.29 (but I would be surprised if such basic matters were strongly dependent on the precise kernel version....). Just in case the firmware of the phone is 2.1-update1. * * * # UPDATE I have asked my wife and she actually did the factory reset suggested. Just in case I did it again, and we still get the error. What now?

SIM Card not detected after encrypting device
I have a Samsung Galaxy Pocket Neo (Model GT-S5310B) running Android 4.1.2 The device is not rooted and the update notifier tells me I have the latest available version installed. Today I tried encrypting the device (I did a full encryption). The encryption went smoothly and with no problems, but during boot up I noticed that the device only asked for the decryption password to continue. My SIM card is password protected, and every time I restart or power up the device it first asks me the sim card password and THEN asks me the device password. At first I thought that, as my device is now encrypted, the prompt for the sim card would come later. But as I logged in, I noticed the notification icon telling me that there was no sim card pluged in, and indeed , any option related to telephony would yield the same notification "Please insert a SIM card". So I decrypted my device and thankfully everything is back to normal. **My question is: Why dose the device encryption make it not detect my SIM card?** I might also add that I maintained encryption on my removable memory, it doesn't seem to affect the SIM detection, only the encryption of main memory affects the SIM card detection.

Restoring purchase of premium features after reinstall
I was searching for a nice-looking Android app that can keep track of my expenses and I found Expense Manager. The app itself is free and it looks like it suits my needs, but it also has some premium features that I want. They can be unlocked through an in-app purchase. Before I pay money for them, I wanted to figure out how I can restore this purchase in case I ever have to reinstall the app after a factory reset. Is there a standard procedure to restore this in-app purchase? Does it happen automatically? Do I have to do it manually through Google Play?

How to Stop apps from waking other apps?
I've been running xposed on my galaxy note 2 with 4.1.1. I have greenify enabled as well as android tuner with perms blocked. Also, I have everything scrambled with xprivacy. I have facebbok selected for hibernation. Everytime I open Plume, I noticed that facebook app comes out of hibernation. I had this same problem with "Keep" months ago, but was able to cut the directory path through greenify. I don't see that option anymore. I have gone through and set everything I can think of to stop this, yet facebook still wakes when I launch Plume. Also whenever I use SwiftKey (which is everytime I enter text!) it also wakes Facebook.

How to quickly get a content of a folder in Google Drive?
**Can I make Google Drive app focus to show a content of a selected folder instead of trying to sync thousands of files changed anywhere on the drive?** drive.google.com works like that, it tooks less than s to show the content online. I do not sync Google Drive in phone periodically (collaborating there with many others => tens of thousands of files changing every often). From time to time I just want to access a file or folder from Google Drive App. It takes many tens of seconds for Google Drive app to show me a content of the folder. It is trying to sync everything on the drive (without any priority to folder I am looking at).

SDCard empty, works on PC
On my rooted Nexus 5, when I open any file manager the sdcard shows empty. Some apps however are able to read from it and I can see it is intact when I connect it to my PC. This means I can't access the files on my sdcard (virtual sdcard in the case of N5) and also evernote fails to sync as it can't create a database. I have tried chmod777 on the sdcard through recovery to try to set permissions right which failed. Restarting the device also fails. Clearing the dalvic cache also fails. Any help would be appreciated!

Can't reproduce because my Android is hooked up to USB, but I'll edit-- S3x-- What's any convenient way to upload/send a video without having to get out the USB? Can I do it without using any 3rd-party apps, or at least using safe 3rd- party apps? Youtube is an option, I believe, but I want to have a hard copy on my PC for editing. Attachments are more convenient.

Android device manager won't reset the password
So, here is the problem. My girlfriend changed her numerical passcode on her Samsung Galaxy S2 and she forgot the password. She had installed Android device manager before on her device but I still cannot reset the password. After reading some advices and forums I realised that you need to PERMIT ANDROID DEVICE MANAGER TO START WORKING ON THE DEVICE ITSELF. So, is there a way to confirm that permission remotely? Otherwise, Android device manager is useless for things like that. Thank you, Regards

How to find out which new permissions are required by an update?
When updating an app that requires new permissions, those new permissions used to be labelled with a green `NEW` tag. No more. Now I can only see the full list of permissions required. I'm still prompted to confirm the change, but I can't save time by only looking at the new ones. Without manually keeping track of the old permissions and other impractical ideas, is there a workaround? A way to see what changed before I install the update?

My GT-I9000 takes ages to come "alive" after powering up. It has been slow for a while, but now it has gotten even slower, anything up to 10 minutes sometimes.

Malware App Installed, Then uninstalled immediately- Next action steps
I recently accidentally installed an app from Google Play onto my android phone (Version 2.3.6) which was clearly a fake... It had the same name and icon as the app I wanted, and I hit the install button. While it was installing, I noticed it was not the real app, and as soon as it completed, I uninstalled the app without opening it. 1 - What actions should I take to assure I have no infection? 2 - Does the fact that I did not run the app mean that it did not have the ability to infect the phone in any way? 3 - Just by installing it, could it have sent my MEID to a bad guy? Thanks in advance for your help! SteveG

How can I verify that a widget updates only when it's visible?
I've installed a task manager widget that shows me the amount of free memory I currently have in the icon of the widget. When I look at it it updates every ~3 seconds, so it definitely drains some battery and consumes some memory when it's active and updating. I want to make sure it doesn't update when the widget is invisible: * When screen is turned off. * When another app is running. * When widget is placed on another (invisible) home screen tab. How can I check whether the widget updates only when it's visible or even when it's invisible?

Why is there such a difference in the amount of internal memory?
So first, when I go to Settings -> Apps this is what is shown: ![Screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/HOvbY.jpg) (Click image to enlarge) After some time ~20 seconds, the amount of space left is this: ![Screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/MZTZF.jpg) (Click image to enlarge) Why does this happen? What does this mean? And when installing any Android app I always get the **insufficient storage space** error. Why? When determining the amount of space that is free, which of the two _screenshots' storage space_ does the Android OS consider? Anyhow, in both the cases the minimum that I had was **40MB** and the app that I wanted to install was **12MB** , yet I got the error. I am running on HTC Legend, Android 4.1 Please clear this confusion. Thanks!

Image instant uploading isn't working
Ever since I upgraded my Google+ app on Friday (3.3.0.40049528) one of my favorite features, Image Instant Upload, is not working. One of the big changes in this release was that instant upload could now upload full size images, rather than limiting them to 2048px. * I have plenty of available storage (4GB out of 5GB available) * I have force stopped the Google+ app as well as cleared the data at least once * The phone (Verizon Galaxy Nexus) has been restarted a couple of times * I am using the stock camera app for my testing * The settings were not changed when I updated Google+, but I have confirmed that Instant Upload is set to allow photo uploads on wifi as well as mobile data. I do not have "upload only when charging" turned on, and there is plenty of battery available. Any ideas? Have I got a bug that needs an update?

Is it safe to restore the phone.apk from a stock Samsung ROM to CM9?
I was using the stock Samsung ROM on my Samsung S2 i9100. Changed over to Siyah Kernel and then made the leap to CyanogenMod 9. Although I prefer and appreciate the myriad settings and usability of CM, there are a couple of issues where I preferred the functionality of the stock ROM: 1. The phone.apk - not just the dialer, but the incoming call screen and the large size buttons to answer a call or to bring up the keypad etc. I know I can use an alternate dialer like DialerOne or dwContacts but that doesn't help me to change the incoming call screen. 2. Pressing the physical home button to answer a call. There are times when it's exceedingly difficult to use the onscreen slider and a press to answer the call is far easier. 3. FM Radio - although Spirit Radio works as an alternative. For items 1&2, can I overwrite the existing phone.apk and contacts.apk with the previous ones that I have backed up using Titanium Backup to return this functionality?

ICS upgrade - Contacts freezing on Galaxy S2
This morning I upgraded my Galaxy S2 from Android v2 to ICS, using `Settings/About/Software Update`. Since doing so, I am encountering a problems with my Contacts, which crashes practically every time I open it. Major downer, not to be able to look up my contacts, as I'm sure you can imagine. (I also have a problem with Hebrew fonts, which no longer display correctly - but I've opened a separate question here to deal with that.) I have tried doing a factory reset, as suggested in one of the answers, which I originally accepted, because it seemed Contacts were working OK right after the reset - but later, after the rest of my apps were automatically downloaded and reinstalled, the same problem started happening again. Are there any apps that are known to conflict with Contacts in ICS? Everything worked fine when I was on Android 2. Any other ideas how to fix this?

Where did my purchased Apps go when I upgraded my Phone?
I have read through many questions here and totally understand that when you upgrade your phone your purchased apps should be accessible for reinstalling at https://play.google.com/store. I upgraded my phone yesterday from a Galaxy SII to a Galaxy S3 and I was given a guarantee in the shop that all the apps I purchased would be available when I log into to GooglePlay. The fact that they are not there is the reason for this question. I have a Galaxy Tab 10.1 and was using the same Google Play account to manage my apps. Im guessing that because my Android platform v4+ and my old phone was v2.2 that some of my apps may not be compatible but I wasnt expecting not to be able to see them (after all they are apps I purchased). Any help would be much appreciated, because the apps for my Galaxy Tab are not available either. My login details for Google has been the same through out.

Why would the screen to a Droid Razr Maxx randomly break?
I read many good reviews about the Droid Razr Maxx which mainly focused on its large 3300 mA battery. All reviews brag about how long the phone lasts before running out of power. Most reviews on Amazon speak highly of the phone too. HOWEVER, I came across this blog _**Droid Razr Maxx – Broken Screen**_ Surprisingly, a LOT of people are complaining about having cracks in their screens. Some admit that their phone fell to the ground, but many others say the screen cracked without falling. Does this have to do with the large 3300mA irremovable battery? I mean is this because of the battery heating up and expanding? Is this a flaw in Motorola's version of Ginger Bread? Note: AFAIK, the screen is made of Gorilla -unbreakable- glass, so I think most people mean the LCD screen cracked. **UPDATE** Here is another link from Verizon's forums about customers suffering from the same problem. Some of them say it wasn't dropped.

Recharge interface infinite boot loop
I'm having this problem for a while and don't remember exactly how it occurred, if I remember well, it started happening after flashing a non-stock ROM with CWM, but can't really reproduce it. Anyway, as for the problem itself, when I plug-in the device to charger while its off, I see a legacy loading star similar to this one for like 5 secs, then comes up the battery icon for a couple of seconds, and device is turned off again for another 3 seconds. The whole routine repeats over and over infinitely. Note, that the device warms up during the charging process while it's turned off. How to solve this?

SMS Thread / General Limit?
Is there a limit within Android, or possibly set by OEMs (heard this from a friend who is a technician), of the total amount of SMS messages you can have? As in, messages within a thread and/or all threads combined? Not just the limit within conversations which you can manually set. I mean a limit android has coded into it, or one that OEMs set, that actually would "limit" (whether by slowing down or stopping) the number of SMS you can have? And I'm not talking about a couple thousand, but even in the hundreds of thousands in a thread?

How can I communicate with someone that only has a tablet?
My wife and I recently ran into an unusal situation: She left her phone in my car, which I didn't know. I, of course, drove off with it. So we couldn't communicate by standard voice or text. She did, however, still have our tablet with her. So I was wondering: what are the various ways that a person with a tablet can communicate with a person that has an Android phone (so never mind "borrow another phone" type answers)? I'd like as many different solutions as possible since, in this situaion, certain methods of commication (such as email) might be ignored as unexpected.

Can I make a Google Doc shared with me more accessible on my Android device?
A friend of mine shared a Google document with me. If I use my Gmail app on my Android device to open the email that includes the link, I can see the document in the Google Drive app. However, I can't seem to find any way to mark that document using the Google Drive app so that I can get back to it easily. Every time I want to view the document, I have to find the email in which my friend shared the link, and then click that link. Is there no way I can bookmark or add that document so that it is available without me having to search for it? Ideally, I could leave it open in the Google Drive app so that when I reopened the app it would show me the document without me having to select it again.

Gmail not being retrieved automatically
I have recently (since ~1month ago) experienced the following **problem** : * When I get new mail on my gmail account, Gmail will **usually** not autimatically retrieve it (e.g., no notification; and when I manually open GMail app, the mail will NOT be in the inbox) * However, **manual** mail retrieval/sync **DOES** work fine, for example if I click on "Sync" (retreieve) curcle icon within GMail app; or on Elixir 2's "start background data sync" icon; or check-off-and-back-on on the "Mail Sync" in Settings->Accounts for relevant Google account. * Also, **sometimes** Gmail does get retrieved/notified; I am not 100% sure but there seems to be a very strong correllation between that and having recently opened GMail app (especially in foreground). * GMail sync worked perfectly find till ~1 month ago * The background sync does not work for ANY of the 3 Gmail accounts I registered. * **OTHER mail apps seem to sync perfectly fine (e.g. Hotmail or Yahoo mail) in the background.**. So I have a hard time believing it is a problem with overall sync. * The issue is independent of network - it doesn't work on WiFi or 3G. **System details:** * Droid X, running rooted stock Froyo 2.2. * I have gone through 100% of intents in Autostarts and made sure every single intent is ON for both Gmail listener and Google Framework. * Gmail version is 2.3.6 (it has a 7/1/2012 backup in Titanium Backup Pro, so I'm assuming this is when it was last updated. BUT the problem existed before 7/1) * **Background sync is turned ON - confirmed via Quick Settings app as well as widgets from Elixir 2.** (also, as noted above, Hotmail and Yahoo mail seem to sync fine)

Sending data/obb to external SD card
I had a phone with CM11 and I was used to having an option, on the app detail screen, to send an app to the SD card. Now I have bought a new phone, with near-stock firmware (4.4.2), and that option is missing. The phone only has 8Gb of internal storage (~5.5 after OS), so I really need to move some larger apps (San Andreas for instance) to the external SD card (32Gb C10). Is there a straightforward way to do this? I am rooted and I have xposed installed, but I can't find any simple solution to my problem. I could technically manually move the relevant data/* or obb/* to the external SD and use Lucky Patcher or some tool to bind folders, but this seems like such an important point (with 1-2Gb games being common; how I am supposed to install Bard's tale?) that I wonder if there is a simple tool to achieve this.

Since updating to Jelly Bean, my Nexus S had a problem with voice search starting up all the time (about every 30 secs). Is there any way to disable it?

Is there really no spell check on the built-in keyboard?
I am a new Motorola Droid4 (Verizon) user (from a blackberry). Moto is telling me that there is no spell check on the built-in keyboard, only on the Mutli- touch keyboard. Is that right?
