52725 | Use custom lock screen on encrypted Jelly Bean device | I recently enabled encryption on my Nexus S running Android 4.1.1. I'm aware of all the benefits and drawbacks, and device encryption is definitely something I want. It's currently working fine. However, one small caveat I overlooked is that encryption requires a password or PIN lock screen. I assumed (somewhat foolishly) that I'd be able to change back to the lock screen of my choice once the encryption process was complete. I like using a pattern lock, because I can set it to not display any visual cues, which makes shoulder-surfing a _lot_ more difficult. It's also quick and easy to enter a relatively complex code. The password I used to encrypt the device was intentionally long and complex, making it something I certainly don't want to be entering every time I want to check my messages. I don't want to change it to something shorter, because increased security was the whole point of doing this in the first place. Is there a way I can go back to using a pattern lock screen? I understand that encryption is irreversible, and I don't really _want_ to remove it. I just want my old lock screen back. **EDIT:** I notice that changing the code for my lock screen also changes the key used to decrypt the device, which I assume is why you're not allowed to use a different type of lock screen. I very specifically do _not_ want to be using the same code to encrypt the storage as I'm using to unlock the screen. That seems like a terrible idea, and I can't believe it's really the way Android does it. |

45167 | bring out stack view in Chrome for Android | I am using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0. I cannot bring out stack browsing in Chrome. Although I have got an option for something like tilt scrolling in advanced settings but cannot find it useful any way even after enabling it. What may be the problem? Here are some links for screenshots related to stack tabs:   I cannot find the button which is marked in the second screenshot, Also the browser in my tab looks a lot like the desktop one, with extremely small tabs at the top. Specifically the 'x' button used to close each tab, which is a headache but I use it a lot. It would help me if I manage to get the stack tabs feature. |
20624 | Why does my phone consume megabytes of traffic when idle? | I have installed Traffic Monitor to check how much data is transferred between my phone and the rest of the world. The traffic is categorized by application, but there is also the category "system traffic", to which all uncategorizable traffic belongs. Strangely enough, the "system traffic" consumes the lion share: 2 of 2.8 MB within several hours of idling (over wireless LAN). Skype is off, only E-mail (K-9 + standard client), the news+weather widget and the browser are running. For these apps, a consumption of 0.8 MB is shown. Still a lot, but I can handle these. Apart from these: Traffic Monitor, Settings, Google Services (what's that for precisely?) and the Android keyboard. What is responsible for the rather heavy traffic here? What are typical "traffic eaters" that could fall into the "system traffic" category? Is there a way to disallow communication while the phone is not used (blank display)? Purpose: Estimate the required data volume or enable a pay-per-data connection. This question on monitoring is related, too. |
42035 | Re Install android OS in Mobile Phone | I am using **LG optimus E 400**. Recently, I have rooted my Android phone. After rooting, it's not booting up now; just displaying white screen. I have tried go to the boot loader by pressing (Hold POWER + Vol Down) but it's not working in my phone. After some searching in Google, I found that the solution is re-installing the Android OS. How do I do that? Is any other recovery option? Thanks. |
42039 | Turn on Mac with Tasker | Is there any way to tell my iMac to turn on via tasker. If so, would both devices have to be on the same network? Is there a way to do this without being on the same network? Would my computer have to be plugged into the router or can this be done wirelessly? I guess I am trying to use wake on lan. So for instance, when I come home and tap my phone to a NFC sticker, my computer would turn on. Is this possible? |
6358 | Why doesn't my Samsung Galaxy S communicate via USB? | I discovered today that I cannot connect my PC with Samsung GT-I9000 any more: when I plug in the microUSB cable, nothing happens other than that the phone starts to charge. Earlier I got to see Connect to Kies or something like that. Things I've tried so far: -Switcing USB debugging on and off -Removing battery -Trying different cable -Trying reimaging PC to a known good state (where I previously would have found new hardware) -Trying different computer -Factory data reset -Formatting internal SD card -Entering download mode with mUSB jig (my phone has download and recovery modes disabled otherwise) and reconnecting mUSB cable. Then I saw the "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned..." error on Windows (XP). Is there anything else I could try before sending it to the long journey of Warrantyland? UPDATE: I tried an app z4root which rooted the phone without the need of usb cable, then I could use Rom Manager to force the phone into Recovery Mode (remember my phone had the 3-button combo disabled). There I deleted-erased- formated everything I could and when I got back to normal mode and tried connecting again, Windows found new hardware and Kies recognized the phone. Just to be sure, I pulled the cable from computer, waited for 2 secs and then reconnected but, alas, nothing happenend again. I reimaged the PC and redid the z4root+Rom Manager+Recovery Mode wipe thing but nothing. Then I tried to reinsert microusb plug into phone under an angle and witnessed a successful connection. Kies offered updating firmare. I did not breathe on the phone and carefully clicked mouse to accept in hope that if this was a software error, new update would fix it. The update went fine but after the phone rebooted and I could confirm the firmware version from About, I still could not connect. Then I used USB jig which I purchased from eBay to force the phone into download mode and tried to connect it with a PC once again. The PC froze at once (even the mouse cursor did not move). I tried pressing every conceiveable keyboard combination from Enter to Ctrl+Alt+Del and then disconnected the USB cable. As soon as I did that, everything started moving again on the screen. I could reproduce this behaviour for 5 times. On the sixth time, however, Windows found new hardware and started installing drivers but soon after that a balloon popped up saying "USB Device Not Recognized. One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned [...]". Then I rebooted the phone and came back to the issue later. I forced the download mode once again and plugged the USB cable in. Nothing happened. No frozing, no error. Even though I have tried to wiggle the microusb plug in from every possible angle, it does not seem to have any effect. It just works when it wants to work. Charging works always, though. |
10169 | How do I get my apps from device A to automatically install on device B when I sign in to my Google account? | I have heard that it is possible for apps to be automatically synced between Android devices so that when you sign in to another Android device with your Google account, your applications will automatically be redownloaded for you without you having to manually do so. I have a Nexus S which I do reset often, but it has never redownloaded my applications when I sign in to my Google account. I have checked the box 'Backup data to Google servers' in the settings. So how can I get my apps to be automatically downloaded when I sign in with my Google account? |

70223 | Samsung Galaxy S3 Stuck at Samsung Logo, possible virus? | My Mom has a Samsung Galaxy S3 from 2 years ago, it now gets stuck at **"Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-I9300"** screen and can't boot properly. It can't enter Recovery Mode either but can enter Odin Mode. Also tried to remove the battery, plug the charger cable and insert the battery but it gets stuck at "Loading Battery", showing a frozen gray battery in the center. When tried to get it repaired, the repair specialist said it was a virus and it would be _very expensive_ to get it repaired (warranty doesn't cover it). Searching online, I found someone with the same problem, and answers to that post instructed to enter Odin Mode, connect the Phone via USB to a machine with Samsung Kies installed and let it download a new Firmware. I should do it? I'm feeling a little reluctant to do it since the repair specialist mentioned a **virus** (don't know if a phone-oriented virus can affect a PC) Thanks for reading, LeoAM. |

10162 | SuperOneClick freezes at "Running psneuter" while rooting. What can I do? | I tried to root my new Samsung Galaxy S II today using the instructions in the CF-Root thread and in the videos provided by this guy on YouTube. I was nearly across the finish line, but when I click the big "Root" button on SuperOneClick, it freezes at "Running psneuter" and won't go any further or shut down (without Task Manager intervention). I've tried leaving it for > 10 mins, turning off all antivirus and I've tried 2 different SuperOneClick versions (1.9.1 and 1.7) to no avail. Because of this, I'm pretty sure my root isn't going through properly. Mainly because when I check if my phone is rooted properly I can't get `su` access in shell. Any ideas/thoughts about what to do? |

However now when my android phone is complaining with a notification in the top bar saying: > Sign in error for XXXX@gmail.com I assume this is a failure in my phone trying to sync my account. Of course I try to enter in my password (unchanged after enabling 2-factor auth) and it fails. Is there something I need to do to get 2-factor authentication to work correctly with my android device? I looked through the gmail app settings and didn't see anything obvious. |
14886 | Trouble installing Cyanogen on Galaxy S II using recovery console method | After replacing my ailing Nexus One with with a SGS2 yesterday (an ordeal in and of itself, but neither here nor there), I decided to replace the stock ROM including TouchWiz with something a little more familiar, hence Cyanogen. I've was following these instructions, and it was going relatively well until step 9 under Method via Recovery. The first time around, I had placed the zip files directly on the root of the SD card, but I couldn't find them. After several more attempts, using different locations, attempting to put them on the internal storage, etc, I still haven't found a way to load those zip files.  As can be seen, I don't have a mount point named sdcard as is typical. I do have that external_sd folder, but whenever I try and enter it to select a zip, I get an error saying something like "No Files Found" and am just returned to this folder. Any help would be appreciated. |

45267 | Images and videos not readable from SD | first time here and I'm in sort of despair! I recently purchased a 32GB (class 10) memory card for my Samsung Galaxy S2. All went fine, the card was recognized, I could write and read from it, both, on the computer and the phone so I set it as the default storage for my camera. The problems start here. Last week, after shooting some videos, I wanted to check them at home but realized that the videos and some of the photos are not shown, the videos cannot be played by the phone or dropbox player or VLC on computer, jpg's are corrupted too. I tried formatting the card, but the problem still persists. I'm pretty stumped right now and don't have any ideas on how to fix this. Any help appreciated, thanks! |

80952 | Locked out by CyanogenMod 11 upgrade | I tried a CyanogenMod 11 to upgrade from 4.1.2 to 4.4 on Samsung S3 Mini i8190. When the phone rebooted, my pin no longer worked. The 3 button hard reset has never worked on my phone. This mod is supposed to have TWRP but can't get to recovery mode. I tried a few flash options for hard reset and one jacked the phone turning on and off repeatedly. I tried flashing a 4.1.2 stock ROM but the phone would endlessly reboot. Heard this was a common problem when downgrading. So went back to 4.4. I don't believe debugging was enabled, since the instructions I followed didn't say to do that. So adb shell won't work. WiFi and data transfer were disabled so Google Manager idea won't work as well. Any ideas? Thanks |
44134 | What does waiting/clock icon next to a message mean and what if I delete message in this state? | When my device is not connected to any network (WiFi/Cellular data) and I send any message, I have seen a waiting/clock icon next to that message. So what exactly does that mean? Is that message added to a queue for next batch process to inform server or something else? And during that state (waiting/clock icon next to message) if I delete that message, will that deleted message still be delivered to the recipient? Actually, I mistakenly sent a message to one of my contacts and luckily that time I was not connected to any network. After a few seconds when I realized this, I deleted that message. But I am not sure if it got deleted completely or it will get delivered when I reconnect to any network. I don't want that message to be delivered to the recipient, so I had disabled all networks on my device. |

40309 | ICMP Requests working but HTTP requests are timing out | For some context, please see this image: http://db.tt/JPJlBC5b (I will upload to SE when I am in front of desktop) Basically this issue happened once before. What's happening is my phone basically stops connecting to the internet. HTTP requests seem to just simply time out after a few minutes in the browser. This causes all my apps to break and some of these apps fail more gracefully than others. The weird part is I can still PING and TRACERT DNS names and IP addresses via ICMP. so I still have some sort of internet connection. If I toggle airplane mode or reboot my phone it fixes it, but only for a few minutes before it stops working again. Last time it seemed to fix itself. Or something. I got so annoyed at trying to fix it that I just went to sleep. When I woke up, everything was broken, even my cellular connection. A quick reboot and everything, including my data connection, was working. Is there anyway I can try can figure out what's causing this and make it stop? |

I'd like to be able to test my app on "real" hardware, but I already have an iPhone, which is plenty expensive itself, and I don't want to pay for an entire second cell phone plan just to test my code.

5478 | HTC Desire crashed, deleted all SMS/MMS. Can I recover? | Been a reader of SO/SE for a while as am getting into Android development. Just wanted to ask a quick question. Hope someone can help. :) I have a HTC desire (2.2 with HTC sense, as per stock), never rooted and little used (basic apps installed, not used for any dev) I use as just a phone really. Hence I was very surprised when it crashed the other day and all my SMS/MMS were deleted (the stock HTC Messages app was empty)! I know I should not have rebooted the device (as file recovery may be easier as it reduces chances of file space being overwritten), but was told to do so by T-Mobile advisor. Upon reboot, found the stock HTC Messages app used for SMS/MMS was was now populated by SMS that was saved on the SIM. Hence I think, the Desire recreated the SMS/MMS content using the saved SIM messages as a start. What I would like to know is can the older SMS/MMS be recovered? I assume they are stored in... /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/smsmms.db ...and that this file (originally with 500+ messages) has been overwritten by a new smsmms.db (now containing ~5 messages), but as I am new to Android/Linux am not sure if this assumption is right e.g. the new smsmms.db file could be written to a different disk location (as is common on FAT32/NTFS file systems in Windows) and hence with the right know-how the original file can be recovered (I've recvered many files like this in Windows without issue). Does anyone know how to recover SMS/MMS messages like that, or how to recover/undelete files from these devices in general (I don't mind if it is only a partial file and I have to rebuild/extract messages). |
45886 | Cursor positioning in SMS editor | I bought an Android phone (Philips w632) and I'm unhappy with the text editor used when I SMS because when I want to edit a letter in the middle of a word I need to keep tapping the letter until the cursor gets there. When I tap and hold on, a magnifying glass appears and this shows clearly where the cursor is and it appears as if I can change its position, but the moment I let go the whole word gets highlighted with two tabs on either side. When I'm typing something in the browser however an orange tab appears under the cursor and I can move this which in turn moves the cursor to the correct position. I did download Swype with the hopes of changing this situation but unfortunately it has the same issue. |
45887 | Internal Memory getting low despite apps are moved out using Link2SD | There might be similar questions. I don't want to open those old question. This is what I have done: * I have rooted my phone. * I have installed Link2SD. It was working good. Suddenly I started to get interal storage full warning. I uninstalled apps one by one. I got some space in internal storage. I got about 80MB. I should get 150MB. Anyway, I am now installing apps one by one. Whenever I install an app, the internal storage is going low. Once I moved the app using Link2SD, I am getting some space. But the problem is, I am not getting the same amount of space. So if I install few more apps, the internal storage will surely go down and i will get warnings. What is the best solution to keep the apps in SD card? So I can keep good internal memory. |
45884 | Android Tethering DNS Problem | I am using a Sony Xperia Go mobile device with Android Gingerbread (2.3.7). Whenever I try to use Tethering (USB/Mobile Wifi Tethering), I could not immediately access website using my laptop. However, I know that there is an Internet connection because I can access websites using their IP address in my Google Chrome in my laptop. I tried `nslookup` in command prompt several times, trying to query Google's DNS servers (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) and 192.168.43.1 (my phone). I always get the error `DNS request timed out.` However, after several restarts, turning on/off Data and mobile hotspot, it would suddenly work and all the DNS requests through command line would get responses. But there is no definite number of restarts. Just today, it took me about 30-45 minutes doing this routine of restart-turn off hotspot-turn on- turn off mobile data-turn on. Every time I do this, I can use my mobile phone to access the Internet. So, that is not the problem. The mobile phone can connect to the Internet. I also use AirDroid. AirDroid is also working normally and I could access it in my browser. So there really is an established connection between the phone and the laptop. It's just DNS requests are not pushing through. I have tried this for both mobile hotspot/USB tethering. My mobile provider allows tethering and I have a mobile data plan. Can you help me determine what is causing the DNS problem? This happens almost every day. |

39125 | Google Now Choosing Weird Route | For at least a month or two, my Razr Maxx HD running the stock firmware Android 4.1.1 (9.1.41.XT926.Verizon.en.US) has done a great job at telling me how long it'll take to get home. I know the route and don't need it to navigate me, obviously, but it has been picking the route that I actually follow. It gives me an estimated time for getting home, so that I can plan my evening around whether there's a severe problem on my route (traffic, road closure, construction, accident, etc.) and either route around it, or let others know that I'll be late, or if it's really terrible, stop somewhere for dinner before hitting the highway. Suddenly, without changing my route or my driving habits at all, Google Now is telling me that it will take about three times longer to get home, and through an _extremely_ indirect / inefficient route. So the time to home is very inaccurate because it isn't basing it on the correct route. Moreover, when I check other sources of traffic information online, I have no evidence that there is any sort of significant delay on my primary route -- at least, nothing significant enough that would make the alternate route faster, or even close to the same time (my primary route is one that takes about 25 minutes at full speed, 35 minutes in typical traffic, 60 minutes with a moderate to severe accident; the alternate route is saying 85 minutes!) I double checked the settings for the Google Now traffic card, and the home and work addresses are set correctly. Google Navigation app picks the fastest route (the route I actually drive) when I ask it to take me home. So, why is Google Now telling me it'll take me an extremely long time to get home via an alternate route? Is there any way for me to set the route manually? |
29124 | Change language for one application (Google Now voice recognition, root available) | I normally run my phone in French. But unfortunately, Google Now will only support voice commands if I set the phone's language to US English. I tried setting **Google Now > Paramèters > Voix > Langue** to **anglias**. This allowed me to perform Google searches using English. But I still couldn't use commands like "call…", "navigate to…" or "set an alarm…". These only seem to be available if I set the phone's overall language to English, which I don't want to do. Is there any way to change the phone's language on a per-application basis? This would presumably require root access, which I have available. Basically, I'm looking for a root app which will chance the Unix locale for selected apps, or something like that. I want to make Google Now work without changing every other application to English. Thank you! |

The phone has been working flawlessly, but lately (since about 2-3 days) it began to use a crazy amount of data. He normally uses about 300 MB per month, but now the phone is using about 20-30 MB per hour **during phone standby!**. Also he notices is that the battery is lasting about half of the previous time, which is evident in case of a long running process. He didn't install/update anything lately and all the settings are set for minimal data use. (Like no Sync..etc). He also has all the known data-hog apps kept disabled. He has installed an app call “my data manager” and the app says that all the data is being used by OS services but there is no detailed information. Just for clarification, he doesn’t have too much applications installed. Just: Whatsapp, Viber, Facebook and Twitter. But as I said before, he has all the auto sync off, and all these apps where installed months ago. My question is: Is there a program that can help us to find out what is going on? Something like a “on the fly” (real-time) data analysis? Any other ideas on what could be happening here? Thanks! Edgar |
29908 | How do I just charge (i.e. not mount for data transfer) a Galaxy Nexus when connected via USB to a PC? | I like to be able to charge my phone from any PC I happen to be using. With my previous HTC Android, I could default to "charge-only" and only switch it to "mount as disc drive" when I wished to, on my own machines. Why? Being prompted for driver installs (at least on a Windows machine) is annoying; connecting a storage device to a PC I don't own may be against policy/protocol/politeness. It would appear that the Galaxy Nexus uses two protocols, MTP and PTP; I currently have only MTP switched on, but can't turn it off. I could try to find a '"USB" cable that only connects pins 1 & 4 ... [to provide] ... power and no data'.. But this would mean carrying two different USB cables around. Any other solutions? |
47655 | Multi User Backup | On a tablet I have a situation where I have multiple users with multiple accounts, and I am trying to have the phone's state backed up in such a way that if I upgrade the operating system, every user's data is backed up. I would like to do this without imaging the phone, so that this backup can be applied to say, a newer version of the Android OS. I am ok with the backup being finicky, if there is some significant changes to the OS, so long as minor changes don't break it. I have tried Titanium Backup, and while it works perfectly for a single user, it does not work when multiple users are involved. Neither the user's, nor their data, is backed up. What application that can achieve this? Edit: To elaborate, backing up each user individually would work but it would be slow. We may be doing this on many devices, so this is primarily a way to save us time. |
47657 | Reverse polarity damage | I need help. I was using a generic usb charger to charge my android phone and it was charging fine but somehow the polarity was reversed. After being plugged in for some time, the phone became very hot and can't power on now. How badly is it damaged and how can it be fixed? |
45008 | How to search contacts with T9 dialer on Nexus 4 | I had a myTouch Slide 4g rooted and running Android 4.0. I was using the default dialer that came with CyanogenMod's Google Apps ROM. I recently picked up the Nexus 4 (not rooted and the bootloader is locked), but it doesn't search through contacts when I put in numbers. Is there a way to use the default dialer to search for contacts by name or number? |
56587 | Relation between Linux and Android kernel versions | I know Android is a modified linux kernel, but does that mean there is any relation between the kernel numbers? In other words, Is kernel number (for example) 2.6.xx of Android somehow based on or modified from 2.6.xx of Linux? or is it maintained separately? |
47652 | Do applications that remain in Recent Apps list take up resources? | I always thought they remained memory residents but a developer told me otherwise. Is there a canonical answer to this? |
47659 | I'm having trouble making a custom ringtone | I have an LG-LS855. I don't seem to have any way to plug it in to my computer. I've made a ringtone I want to use. It's an mp3 file. I've uploaded it onto Google Drive. The only thing I seem to be able to do from my phone is play it. I've downloaded three apps for custom ringtones. The only one that came close to helping was Tone Picker. It lets me use an mp3 from Google Drive as a ringtone. Or at least, it appears to. The phone still uses its default ringtone. I've also figured out how to use any of the music on my phone as ringtones, but I can't figure out how to download the mp3 as music either. Edit: The Dropbox app actually lets you download stuff onto your phone. Once I did that, the phone's ringtone manager let me use it fine. |
20599 | Is it posible to change the locale of my device? | In my Android phone when I go to `Settings -> Language and Keyboard Settings -> Select Language` I see "Locale" as the title on the top row and see that only few languages are listed. I suspect its because of this "Locale" setting. Where I can change it so that all supported languages will be listed? Under `Settings -> Language & Keyboard` I don't see a "Locale" option. |
57554 | Missing input languages | I'm in New Zealand and have a Huawei G600 phone (Android 4.0.4). I bought it from DSE and it's Telecom branded. In Google Keyboard, the only available input language is "English (US)". I.e., when I go to Settings -> Language & Input -> Google Keyboard Settings -> Input languages, the only item listed under "Active Input Methods" is "English (US)" - so even when I uncheck "Use system language", "English (US)" is the only listed option. The same is true with other input methods as well (E.g., neither the stock Android Keyboard nor Google Voice Typing list any option other than US English.) I'd like to use other languages. Aside from installing a 3rd party keyboard like Swype, is there a way to enable or download the stock language options that my phone is missing? BTW, the phone is rooted - though the problem has existed all along. Thanks in advance :) |
48932 | AFWall+ is not blocking apps | I've used AFWall+ to block Weather Services Pro from using my data plan, but My Data Manager app still shows it in the top 3 of data plan use. Is there some background process using data that isn't being blocked? Is there some other way to block it from using mobile data but still work on Wi-Fi? HTC Vision/G2 with CM7.2.0 Android 2.3.7 Update: I found an FAQ: > **How do I know if my phone supports iptables?** > > Issue the following command in ADB shell or in Terminal Emulator: > > > iptables -L -t nat > $ su # iptables -L -t nat Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination Is that correct? Also this might be the issue, though I don't know how to prove it or troubleshoot it: > **AFWall+ does not work under CM 7.x, how can i fix this?** > > CM 7.x uses old version of iptables which has conflict with AFWall+ built-in > iptables. As a workaround you can try to update your iptables to the latest > version. But it should work without it. Contact developer/raise an issue on > github. Also, I enabled the "Fix Startup Data Leak" option, and after a reboot, nothing could access the internet at all; it could connect to Wi-Fi but the icon was white indicating no internet connection. Then I went into AFWall and pressed Apply, and stuff started to work. Now I can block Browser and when I try to load things in the browser it says "Web page not available" as expected. So maybe it's working now? Also firewall log is no longer empty: AppID : 10080 Application Name: Weather Services PRO Total Packets Blocked: 348 107.23.165.43(40) 74.125.29.95(16) 54.236.89.222(40) 173.194.74.95(4) 54.236.118.224(40) 195.210.29.5(40) 54.236.161.75(40) 157.249.32.164(48) 54.236.175.13(40) 54.236.179.252(40) --------- AppID : 10167 Application Name: Facebook Total Packets Blocked: 26 69.171.235.80(6) 173.252.103.16(2) 69.171.242.30(18) --------- So I think that fixed it. Weather app says "request timed out" and Facebook says "Network Error", but Gmail etc still work. :D If it works over the next few days I'll move this into an answer. |
48935 | My new Android device not showing up in Google Play | I had a Intex iBuddy Connect (Tablet) linked with my Google account. Later on I purchased an new Android device (a XOLO Q700).

If there isn't a way to run the application on Android, is there any free application that would allow me to upload pictures to my Snapchat story?

65192 | Android App rating / Hidden reviews | I have an app published on the Google Play store and it has been up for almost a year. Since then I have collected a bunch of ratings, most of which I see and read the written review. But then there are reviews that come in that don't have any name or content attached, but the review is there. It is almost as if the review is hidden. For example, I have 8 one-star reviews. If I log my dev account, I can filter out one start reviews and count only 5 of them with actual content. But there are 3 completely missing and not on the list at all. As the developer, I obviously care about each and every review. Why are these reviews missing? Can I make these reviews visible? |

32322 | Are Xoom files automatically transferred to a newly added microSD card? | I just slipped a 32G microSD card into my Xoom tablet. I had used the SD card in my Android smartphone before replacing that card with a larger capacity card. Are files that were heretofore stored on the Xoom automatically moved to the SD card? I may have neglected to remove all files from the sd card before installing it... so I should be able to delete all files showing up in the /sdcard (sdcard) directory? I note I also have a folder named /mnt/external1 (sdcard) directory. Any idea what is what here? |

65444 | Which android devices have optimized encryption hardware? | I've been using a Nexus 5 for a while and using FS encryption. Apple's iOS Security document states that: > Every iOS device has a dedicated AES 256 crypto engine built into the DMA > path between the flash storage and main system memory, making file > encryption highly efficient.

65445 | Play Store updates downloaded on 3G network by ignoring settings | On my Xperia J phone Google Play Store setting of automatic updates is set to: Wi-fi only. To my greatest surprise, yesterday it started to download 50MBs of updates when I was on 3G and my 200MB package was almost exceeded. I checked the Data usage of Google Play Store on my 3G network and on Wifi: Wifi has 432 MB traffic, **3G has 82 MB** (with wifi-only settings). My question is: what settings should I use to prevent the abuse of my 3G package? Have you experienced similar behavior? |

65449 | How to do reset/wipe on galaxy nexus with encrypted data | My galaxy nexus, rooted, open bootloader, was running cyanogen mod 10.2 with encrypted data. I tried to wipe and sideload 11 maguro onto it, and install hung on fixing fs_size in crypto footer. On rebooting it hung on the cyanogen face. I wiped a few more things and tried to put 10.2 back on and now the encryption password does not work anymore. So I cant boot the device. I saw that a total wipe and restart is possible, but Im not sure how. Sideloading another ROM I am guessing wont help anyway since I cant boot past the encrytion screen as my password is not being accepted.

2218 | Modify search in Google Maps | Is it possible to edit a search that I have made previously when using Google Maps on Android? The situation I have sometimes is that I make a search in Google Maps but it doesn't quite give me the results I want - perhaps because I didn't use the correct term or because there was a typo in my search. Or perhaps the search works but I want to refine it. As an example, I might first try to search for a street name just to get an idea of where the street is. Then later I might want to repeat that same search but also including the house number on that street because I want to get directions to a specific building on that street. When I open Google Maps and press the search button I can see my previous searches in the history but I don't see any way to edit, select or copy/paste them. If I touch the search in the history it just repeats the exact same search as before without giving me any opportunity to edit or refine it. My workaround is to manually type the entire search phrase again with the modification I need, but is there a better way? |

46214 | Why are some USB chargers slower than others? | It seems with USB chargers for my android phone, not all are created equal. The first pic is the official charger which came with my phone (galaxy nexus). It charges quickly, from 0 to 100% in a couple of hours max. The second pic is a cheapy I got on ebay to use at the office. It works but it's slow as a wet week, can take 6+ hours to charge and if I use the phone while it's charging, it seems to drain faster than it's being charged. The two chargers below seem to be the same spec (5V / 1A) and from my limited understanding that `P = V*I` they should provide the same power, right? What else do I need to look for when buying a charger, and is there any way to tell in advance if it is going to be slow or fast (apart from testing them out)?   (click images for larger variant) ps: I'm aware that charging from a computer USB port can be much slower than using the wallwart, because the computer USB ports can sometimes be current- limited to 500 mA. |

9428 | Need a car-friendly way to listen to music? | Here is specifically what I'm looking for. 1) I would like the ability to use gesture/swipe controls to skip tracks. This is much easier than finding a button on a touchscreen to change tracks. 2) Ability to either prevent a lockscreen or control the player from the lockscreen. I don't mind if I have to push the power button to get the screen to wakeup, but once I do, I would like the ability to control the music player without going through the Android screen lock. I see this accomplished through either a certain type of music app, or some application that allows me to control what applications prevent a screen from locking. I have a rooted Samsung Captivate (Galaxy-S) running a custom ROM variant of 2.2.1. |
9421 | Use something other than finger that can be sensed by a capacitive touch screen | I have some crazy ideas about some stuff lately but to make it tangible I need a bit more information over the capacitive touch screens. Is there a way to create an object that can be sensed by a capacitive touch screen without the touch of the human skin? I mean, imagine a tiny piece of something that you can just lay on the screen and the screen thinks is a finger or a stylus. I've heard about the stylus that can be sensed, but I think that the skin has to be touching it in order to work.. is it true? Can I maybe create something out of ordinary house stuff that can do this, without the need of the skin to touch it? Ahh, and by the way, it need to be capacitive because multi-touch is needed. Thank you all and best regards! |
11643 | Droid X: What are the pros/cons of upgrading to Gingerbread 2.3? | I have a Droid X running Android 2.2.1 (system version 2.3.340.MB810.Verizon.en.US). I want to upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3 but so far I've read one positive thread where people were happy with gingerbread and the rest is doom and gloom. I'm not really interested in doing any kind of rooting or custom ROM stuff I just want to know about the plain vanilla OTA update from Verizon (which my phone is currently asking me about). So should I upgrade? Or, to put it another way, what are the pros and cons of upgrading? **EDIT** A good answer would be like a bullet list of 5 or so negatives about Gingerbread and 5 or so positives. A great answer would be an extensive list of the negatives and positives. An amazing answer would add to that extensive list some anecdotal experience about the upgrade and whether they wish didn't upgrade or are glad they did and why. I originally title this question "Droid X: Should I upgrade to Gingerbread 2.3?" but in an effort to be less subjective I've reframed the question. |
