67712 | Copy Contacts from Blackberry Touch to Galaxy S3 without google sync | Just came across a problem when switching from Blackberry Touch to the Galaxy S3. How can I automatically move the contacts from the old device to the new one without typing it myself? Some one suggested me using Google sync but the problem is that Google services are blocked in my country. Anyone has other solution to fix the problem? Thx |

28558 | Galaxy S Advance Network Issues | I recently bought a Galaxy S Advance GT-I9070. Its not even a week since I've bought the phone. When this phone goes into an area with low or no network coverage it loses coverage and never regains it. The phone needs to be restarted to get coverage (and then gets full coverage). The device is running Gingerbread 2.3.6. Is there any solution to this, or has Samsung provided a fix already? And what are the chances of it being a hardware or a software problem? |
28148 | How to print a webpage from my Android phone? | > **Possible Duplicate:** > Is there any way to print directly from the phone? Assuming a modern (compatible) **mobile** printer, is it possible to print a webpage or a PDF document directly and **natively** from the phone? I've heard of **PrintShare** , and saw **this question** , I'm asking if it can be done natively, without the use of another application. If that's not possible, is there some sort of API I can use to achieve it? Assuming I write my own application. |

58405 | What is CyanogenMod and how is it different from Android? | I have been listening a lot of chatter about CyanogenMod and it only seems to be growing louder by the day. But what exactly is CyanogenMod and how is it different from Android? If CyanogenMod is a fork of Android then how can it (aim to) become third major mobile ecosystem. Aren't they both same? Also, how safe is CyanogenMod, in the sense, can I trust it with my Contacts, Google, Facebook, Twitter and social account information? Some time back I read an interesting article on Ars Technica - Google’s iron grip on Android: Controlling open source by any means necessary \- which details out how Google is creating closed source equivalents of Android Open Source Project (AOSP) apps for e.g. Search, Keyboard and so on. If that's the case will Google's proprietary apps be available on CyanogenMod? The same article details out how Amazon's fork of Android is not Google approved and because of that it faces many issues. Is CyanogenMod Google approved? |
58400 | I've rooted my Galaxy Nexus phone, but "/data/data" is empty | As a follow up question, I rooted my Galaxy Nexus phone using Kingo, but when I tried to explore my phone using an application like ASTRO, I found out that the `/data/data` directory is empty. Why is it empty? Am I missing something? Where are application data stored? |
28553 | Change WCDMA to GSM automatically | I have **Samsung Galaxy S II** with **Android 4**. If I configure my phone to **GSM/WCDMA (automatic)** mode, I have problems when I receive or make a call. Usually I lost the call or the other person cannot hear me. In my city 3G network is not very good. I solve this problem changing the mode to **GSM only** (manually) and then make the call. Is there a way to configure my phone to change from WCDMA to GSM automatically when I make or receive a call? I've installed **2G/3G OFF** application, but it is still manual. |

57904 | A lot of storage space used by 'system files' | I have a problem of huge storage space missing in my newly bought Galaxy Tab 2 tablet. It is the 16 GB version, but even after resetting twice to factory settings, the available storage space remains at about 5 GB, with the remaining 11 GB inaccessible, because it is "used for Android system files". I suspect that there may be back-up or batch files from the previous installations that Android does not remove when I restore to factory settings. Does anybody know in which directories I should look, and how I can delete the relevant folders to free the expected 6-7 GB of remaining storage space that I need for my applications? |
29254 | I have to set the phone to silent twice to make it "stick". How can I do it after once set? | I have a VZW Galaxy Nexus running bugless beast 4.1 and when I hold the power button and select silent mode, the phone immediately switches back to normal mode. Then if I do it again, it will go into silent mode. I was using the Shush app and thought that was messing with it so I uninstalled Shush and it still takes two tries to make the phone be silent. This is relatively new behavior that used to work before. How can I isolate what is causing this problem? |
79057 | Coverting ROM for MTK 6575 | My phone was already a dead unit but can still be detected by SPFT (Smart Phone Flash Tool). What I have is a Stock Flashable Rom which is in zip file.

79054 | What does solid solid blue LED light mean on my Samsung Google Nexus phone? | Similar to this question except my LED light is solid blue. I've googled the subject but the only thing that came up associated with the blue light was the Facebook app, which I don't even have installed. I can't say I remember ever seeing it before. The battery was not low. The phone was unresponsive and, though off, the screen felt unusually hot. So I pulled the battery out and let it cool down. The battery's back in but it still won't power on. ### Update I googled "nexus 4 hot", as my phone continues to be very warm (despite remaining, to all other appearances, utterly dead), and ended up on a Google support page, where I was able to chat with a live human being, who emailed me some troubleshooting steps, which were very basic and not at all helpful. The email included a phone number, 1-855-83-NEXUS, where I talked to another human being, who again wasn't able to help, but was very pleasant. No one has yet been able to explain the mysterious blue light. |
35182 | How much battery savings to expect from SetCPU? | Has anybody done any serious measurements as to effects of SetCPU (or a similar power-saving app)? I mean, are Google and Linux developers really that stupid not to properly implement power management in-system? Especially so considering the Android's paramount problem of battery life. The SetCPU promo video only shows how the MHz numbers jump up and down, but is it noticeably better for the battery than processor idling done by the OS itself? |
35184 | Where can I see synced contacts | I enabled contacts sync because I will have to factory reset my phone. After cleaning up the mess joining accounts made, I would like to check if my phone contacts are indeed saved on Google servers so as to proceed to the wiping of memory. Is there anyway to do this? contacts.google.com only shows Gmail contacts. Thank you. |
35188 | Hard Wired Aux In not working | I just recently purchased a Galaxy Three with 4.0.4. Before the new phone, I had an Apple iPhone 4S. When I plugged the iPhone's headset jack directly to my car receiver's Aux In it worked just fine. When I do the same with the Galaxy, it does not work. I plug one end of the standard 3.5mm male to male adapter cable into the phone it reacts as if a headset was connected - headset icon appears. The Galaxy reacts as if the cable is not present the moment I connect it to the receiver. The headset icon disappears and sound comes from the phone's speakers. I do not have a bluetooth enabled car so that is not an option. Any ideas? |
31933 | Any way to schedule a passive profile-change? (connectivity, volume etc.) | What I am wondering is if there is any way to make Android change its profiles **passively** from one state to the other at e.g. 3 pm in the afternoon local time: * Through Android internally (with some tweaks) * Through an Android app * Through a 3rd party mod (Cyanogen etc.) * Through ...? **Whereas the state change should be:** * From "Airplane mode" (set) to Wifi/3G * From "Mute"/vibration (set) to maximum volume, i.e. visible sound * Optionally: From E-Mail/Notifications on-demand (Pull) to "Push", i.e. the moment I get out of airplane mode and mute/vibrate mode, I want to get the push alerts of the last hours. I wonder if 3. is possible, I never changed much concerning my notification settings. Any Android version welcome, currently I run 4.0, but plan to upgrade to CM10. What I don't want (and don't have) is NCF, because it involves me being active. The whole reason for having a scheduled, predefined activity is that I can "set and forget" it and can focus on my work being assured that I will keep my deadline or whatever. I don't want to be actively involved. |

55388 | How to install game resources without Wi-Fi? | I am trying to install Fifa 14 from my PC because I don't have Wi-Fi to download it. I recently got a new 16GB SD card, formatted it, created `/Android/obb` folder and put the cache files therein. I installed the game and every time I start the game it says: > "download failed" because the resources could not be found. I have tried installing the apk first - then putting the files in the cache but that doesn't work either. It's not only for Fifa, it says the same for all other games as well. I've even tried putting the files in `/Android/data/obb` or only `/Android/data` but it doesn't work either. I'm using LG Optimus l7 II, it's compatible with all the games I'm trying to install.. And yes, I even tried moving the app to SD card, but it's the same. |
51409 | How can I force-disable all dock detection/HDMI connectivity? | **Context:** I have a RAZR MAXX XT912 with 4.1.2 (3.0.8-gbacb1cf). As soon as I wake it for any reason, it immediately acts as if it is connected via HDMI, despite the fact that no cable is connected. Many people have this problem, and it is usually a result of a software issue or a shorted connection somewhere in the HDMI hardware/plug that results in a phone thinking it is docked. For me, it occurs constantly (some people experience it intermittently)--as soon as I wake the phone from sleep/non-lit states, it immediately rotation- locks itself into widescreen and presents me with the docking choices menu. **Question:** Is there some way to permanently disable HDMI dock detection? **What I've tried:** * I've tried the "HDMI Connection" setting; whenever I uncheck it, the phone goes back to normal. However, leaving it unchecked doesn't work: if I restart the phone with it unchecked, the phone acts as if it's docked when it starts again, and I have to go into settings, check the box again, and then uncheck it before the phone behaves. The phone also periodically "forgets" what that I've unchecked the setting (without a reboot), and I have to go check/uncheck it again. * I've tried clearing all application caches, to no avail. * I tried clearing the cache partition, to no avail. * Finally, I tried a factory reset, but the symptoms persisted. * I've fiddled around with a hand lens and a needle inside the HDMI connector, but couldn't observe any shorted pins and didn't manage to affect the symptoms at all. |

The description under this setting is a little unclear: > Decrypt documents into a stream incrementally. So my question is what does this mean and what does it do? Does it mean that a given document is only partially decrypted (if there is such a thing) while it is open? Should the average user pay any attention to this setting? I found this HowTo on CNET but it does not explain the setting. _I don't recall whether this was a setting under the former (i.e. pre-Drive) Google Docs app._ |

78873 | USB connection unreliable while tethering | Device: Galaxy Nexus Android: CyangenMod 11.0 (Android 4.4.4) The IT department of my company doesn't support access of Mac devices to its network, but it does for Android devices. So I would like to connect my macbook (Mac OS X 10.9.4) to the internet by tethering my phone's Wi-Fi connection. Bluetooth tethering is reliable, but rather slow (max 200KB/s download speed, in reality it is rather something like 80KB/s). So, I tried to use the USB tethering with the help of HoRNDIS (release 5), which is magnitudes faster (22MB/s) than Bluetooth tethering. However after a while (some minutes), the connection is lost. To restore it, I have to unplug the USB cable, plug it in again and retick the checkbox 'USB tethering' on the 'Tethering & portable hotspot' page in the 'Wireless & Network' settings. In order to solve this problem, I tried the following: * Enable 'Android debug mode' & 'ADB over Network' * Screen always on Unfortunately, these attempts didn't work. Does anyone have a similar problem or workaround? |

Is there any way I can get a Google Hangouts-style icon pack or something? All of the Google Play searches I've attempted returned mostly emoji keyboards which are NOT what I am looking for. |

9894 | How to set As Lower Brightness as in Clock application, without rooting | I noticed that with the Froyo "desk clock" application, when you put it in low light mode, it forces the back-light far darker than you can manually make it in the settings. My question is: is there an application or a non-root hack that can make the back-light really dim just like in the desk clock application? As that clock can set brightness lower without rooting, there should be a way to do that without rooting. |

55961 | Cannot install any Custom ROMs on Xperia Ray ST18i: assert failed: getprop Status 7 | When I try to install any of the roms of that page: http://get.cm/?device=urushi I always get this error: > Finding update package... Opening update package...

This sounds to me, that the prop doesen't get the right string "ST18i" which is strange, cause that's exactly my model. Do I have to downgrade or install something else first? I also tried to install the old image Xperia Ray (ST18i)_4.0.2.A.0.42_CE.zip again, but there is just sais "installation aborted". Are there different Rescue Menues? I read, someone tried reinstalled his rescue menu with Odin. I installed my Recovery Mod with the app **x-Parts** from Google Play that app installs the CWM. |
55963 | How can I create an app or shortcut that will do multiple events? | I play a game that I have different accounts in. The "problem" is that when I login, the user data is saved in the cache so I can jump right into the game the next time I open the app. But I don't want that. Typically I do the following: * Open App * Login * Play * Go to Settings * Go to Apps * Scroll to the app * Force Stop * Clear Data Then login under my second account and do the same thing. Ideally, I would like to click an icon that does Settings/App/Force Stop/Clear Data/Login in that order. I would then have a second icon do the same type of sequence for my other account... any ideas? |

If I go to Settings, Accounts & sync, ADD ACCOUNT, there is no "Corporate" or "Exchange" options at all. I only have Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Dropbox. I haven't rooted my phone or made any modifications beyond installing apps from the Play store. Under Settings, Apps, ALL, I have something listed called "Exchange Services" but it says that it is using 0.00B storage, cache, etc. Any help on adding an exchange account to my phone would be appreciated. I've been using it with just my Google account for quite a while but would like to add a corporate exchange account for work. |

57523 | Losing connection to powered USB hub | Background (not a development question): I'm developing an application which allows multiple android devices to interact. I am trying to tether the phones through a powered USB hub to run some simulation tests. In order to use the phones through USB tethering, I have to shell in and do some configuring. Typically, I leave the phones plugged in overnight, or else I lose these configurations and I have to redo them. For some reason, when I get in the next morning, some of the lights above the ports on the powered USB hub are off. The phones connected to these ports are no longer tethered. In order to resolve this, I have to disconnect the USB cable, reconnect it, re-tether the phone, and redo the configurations. This is not so inconvenient for 1-2 phones, but I will soon be testing my application with upwards of 30-50 phones. I will probably be writing a script to configure the phones, but I would ideally not be running this script every day. I am currently using Nexus S phones with Cyanogenmod v 10.1.0 (based on 4.2.2 I believe), but I do not think this issue is phone dependant. Is there any setting on the phones that I can set to keep the phones tethered indefinitely? As far as I can tell, the phones all have the same settings for going to sleep/screen locking. I am really not sure why they are disconnecting, but I am pretty sure it is not the USB hub nor the USB cables. Update: I forgot to mention that I suspend my computer (Ubuntu 13.04) , but when I return from suspending my session, only some of the phones are powered. I marked my phones before I left for the weekend, and when I came back the same ones that were powered when I unsuspended my session last time are powered now. So I think this is an issue with phone settings. |
57521 | PIN enforcement with MDM solution | I have a technical question to the android os. A phone doesn't have to have some PIN or other unlocking options but what exactly happens when you take this phone into a MDM solution such as MobileIron? It gives you some policies and somehow you are forced to take a PIN. Is this because of the policy or because of the android OS which says: "oh you want to use certificates, well I do not allow you to use them without a PIN". the phone uses wpa2-enterprise |
57526 | Rescue data from an application | I was using Secret of Happiness for about three months, and created some notes during this time period. At one point when I wanted to add a new note, the application froze, and I had to force close it. I tried to look for the directory where it stores data. I hoped it would be some database, XML, or CSV format so I could view the notes data, but wasn't able to find it. I also tried to copy the app's data to the SD card but it's not there either. How can I find out where this app stores its data, and how can I view my notes again? |

75498 | How does Youtube's android app handle playback? | On Android, in the past Adbobe flash player was used to handle the playback of YouTube videos if am not mistaken. Now with the drop of flash player support by Google and Adobe not developing it anymore, how does the current YouTube app for android work? Is it HTML5 based? Does anyone know if it supports hardware acceleration like use GPU for decoding? Because it seems it me the current YouTube app doesn't have hardware acceleration. The battery consumption is just too high even on WiFi. I loose about 1% for every 2 mins on Youtube app regardless if am watching a 360p or 720p video stream. But when I try playing back a stored 720p MP4 video I only loose 1% for every 5 mins. That's a big difference. The video player is course hardware accelerated. I do remember in the past watching videos YouTube on the resulted only 1% for every 3-4 mins. Now it has gotten worse and it's not down to 720p or 360p as the loss is pretty much the same. I am guessing YouTube on android now is not hardware accelerated anymore? |

75496 | Reorganizing Android storage | My Android device (rk2928, Android 4.1.1) currently has NAND flash on `sdcard` and the SD card on `external_sd`.

75141 | Passwords do not work: Verizon Ellipsis 7 4G LTE Tablet | A friend of mine recently became bedridden and a kind neighbor gave her a Verizon Ellipsis 7 4G LTE Tablet QMV7A to help relieve her boredom. My friend has no other access to the internet while she is injured. Her problem is that she can't log into any of her web sites that require a password. She continuously gets told her password is invalid. She made sure the shift and caps lock key were not issues. She told me that she was able to see her actual password characters before they were redacted as asteriks..........she typed them correctly. Does anyone have any suggestions for helping her successfully entering her passwords into web sites running on this tablet? Thanks Steve |

3405 | "Battery use" information screen not reporting apps | I've got a Samsung Galaxy S (international version) that I've just upgraded to Android 2.2 (Froyo) and now the battery usage page in settings (Settings => About phone => Battery use) only ever reports the following items: Display, Cell standby, Phone idle & Voice calls. Although I upgraded only a couple of days after having the phone, I'm sure that it originally showed usage of other things like apps & live wallpaper... It's kind of useless how it is now, any ideas on how I get it displaying all usage again? |
75146 | Is there an easy way to to send a simple GET request from a lock screen widget? | I've built a garage door opener that can be triggered by a GET request (with the appropriate password, of course), and right now it's controlled by a webpage with javascript. It's possible to use this page from my phone to open the door, but it's quite a hassle to get to my browser before I can use it. What I'm after is a home screen or lock screen widget that will send off the request with the touch of a button, or an easy way to create one. I've attempted to write android apps before, and found it all very cumbersome. I have a Nexus 5, running the latest cm-11 nightly build. |

4876 | Icons changing screen postion | Every so often I will unlock my phone and notice an Icon is missing on my home screen. Upon further investigation it seems that I can always find it on the home screen to the left or right. My question is: how does this happen? I have tried everything I could possibly think of to reproduce moving the icon from screen to screen. It doesn't pertain to a particular icon or icon position, it can happen with any of them. Until recently I thought this didn't affect widgets but I noticed it happen with the Google search bar... It's not that big of a deal because I can quickly delete the icon and put a new one on the proper home screen. I just want to understand how this is happening, it has been going on long enough and frequently enough to make think it is not the phone but something I am doing. I have replaced my original DROID 3 times since I got it and have seen this problem since 2.0 on my the original one. |

2063 | Make my screen dimmer than the lowest setting available on my Moto Droid? | I primarily use my phone at night and any screen that is white is super bright, even when the brightness is turned as low as it can go (0%). Dolphin HD has an add-on called Dolphin Brightness that actually turns the screen's brightness down lower than the 0% setting in the Settings menu. Unfortunately, as soon as I leave Dolphin HD, it goes back to the stock brightness level. Is there anyway to dial the brightness level down like the add-on, but for every app and the home screen? I have tried several apps that give you access to brightness control, like Quick Settings but they simply give you the same level options that the stock settings menu gives you. |

18477 | How can I disable root on a modded device? | Is it possible to _disable_ root access to applications on an Android device again after installing modded firmware? I would like to try Cyanogen or one of the other custom ROMs, but I'm wondering whether that poses a security risk. Do all installed applications get root access automatically, or can that be disabled? I want to keep the Android security model the way it is or at least for applications to ask for my permission before they can access sensitive data. |
71647 | Does Android 4.4.3 support Bluetooth Low Energy in peripheral mode | (Re-post from http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24049823/does- android-4-4-3-support-bluetooth-low-energy-in-peripheral-mode): We know that Android until 4.4.2 does not support Bluetooth Low Energy in peripheral mode (see here). As the OP said, from those commits https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/ee0b3e9 looks like they added the feature. Does anybody have any information on this? |
71646 | I can't find the boot/recovery partitions on my Android phone for backup - where are they? | I'm trying to back up boot.img, recovery.img, and system.img on my Android phone. I've found several mentions of running this command: cat proc/mtd and then just using dd to copy the listed mount points. Seems straightforward enough. Unfortunately, the output of that command is just this single line: dev: size erasesize name df also doesn't list the usual "Mounted On" column, just the filesystem. This is the output of df: Filesystem Size Used Free Blksize /dev 234M 52K 234M 4096 /mnt/secure 234M 0K 234M 4096 /mnt/asec 234M 0K 234M 4096 /mnt/obb 234M 0K 234M 4096 /system 640M 459M 180M 4096 /data 1G 406M 898M 4096 /cache 369M 6M 363M 4096 /protect_f 8M 4M 4M 4096 /protect_s 8M 4M 4M 4096 /mnt/cd-rom 1M 1M 0K 2048 /storage/sdcard1 1G 24M 1G 16384 /storage/sdcard0 7G 2G 5G 32768 /mnt/secure/asec 7G 2G 5G 32768 Some details about my phone: * It's a BLU ADVANCE 4.0 * Board is Mediatek MT6572 * Android version is 4.2.2 * Kernel version is 3.4.5 * I do have root access So, to reiterate my question - where are the partitions? How can I find them? While I'm not necessarily averse to using programs other than the shell it seems like I really should be able to do this from there. * * * EDIT: I used dd on the various mmcblk files I found in /dev/block. Most of them I terminated prematurely as they were 100MiB+, but two (mmcblk0p2 and mmcblk0p3) came out to about 10MiB each which seems more probable for boot and recovery. The contents of these when mounted are: * a directory labelled lost+found (ext?) * a directory labelled md, the subcontents of which differ In mmcblk0p2 the contents of md are: * Two files of unknown type, one 4B one 2.0KiB, labelled MPOD_000 and ST33A004 respectively In mmcblk0p3 the contents of md are: * One file of unknown type, 2.0KiB, labelled ST33B004 |
36514 | Hardware ID missing on Galaxy S3 after Windows update | A few days ago I accepted Windows Update's Samsung drivers for Galaxy S3 running rooted Jelly Bean. It worked fine as USB MTP device until then. Now, every time I connect the USB cable I get the error "Hardware ID missing. Contact manufacturer..." and I can't see my device's file system. Switching to PTP or enabling Debug doesn't work. How to fix it? |
