79558 | Determine ASUS Transformer Serial Number | I'm trying to determine the model of an ASUS Transformer tablet. In Settings -> About, I know its a TF-101 (I knew this one I bought it a few years ago). But that's all it provides under Android 4.0.3 (shown below). However, I cannot determine if its an A20, B10, etc. According to How to identify hardware versions?, its encoded in the serial number, and its on a sticker attached to the tablet. Unfortunately, even with my glasses, I cannot seem to find it. How does one determine the serial number for an ASUS TF-101 tablet? * * *  |
7517 | How to use diffrent modes at same time on a phone for different callers | For two different callers call on a phone, Is it possible that phone is on vibrate mode for one caller and on ring mode for different user? My question is in terms of making an application. Is it possible for two different caller when they call at same time on an phone for one the phone is on vibrate mode and for other it will be on ringing mode. Like what i am thinking is to start a service that run in background, So when a call is coming from a particular number it will switch it to vibrate and for different no it will switch to vibrate. But again the thing is service can listen only one number at the time. So the phone can either work on Vibrate or its in ring. Can it be possible that two mode run simultaneously for two different number? IF so then hows it possible? |

19374 | Google+ client that takes up less space? | Has anyone tried a Google+ client that takes up less space than the standard client from Google Inc.? My phone gets full very quickly and right now the Google+ client is one of the largest installed apps I've got. Any suggestions? The most useful feature of the client compared to using the browser version is that I can do "Share" from any other app, usually Google Reader, directly to Google+ without having to copy+paste the URL I want to share. EDIT: This is on an HTC ChaCha (Status) which has a pretty tight memory space. |
19377 | Is it possible to reorganize the SD card? Because it is a mess in there | One of the things I hate about Android is the folder organization. Each app creates its own folder, usually in the root of the SD card. When I'm trying to find something, I have to search it through long lists of app-specific folders. Is it possible to reorganize these? For example, this is how I would like my SD card to look like: * Android: OS specific data * AppData: Application specific data. This is where every app puts its settings and data, not where they want * Documents * Downloads * Pictures * Music * Video etc. So in other words, can I restrict where apps put their data? |
19378 | PPTP Disconnects | I am using the built in PPTP client on my 2.3 phone and 3.0.1 tablet, to connect to the same PPTP gateway. Neither will stay connected for longer than about 5 minutes, maximum. My phone uses it's 3g connection. My table is Wifi only. I have a laptop that will stay connected, that connects via my home Wifi. I also have a wired desktop at home, that also stays connected. So it's just the two Android device, via 3G and Wifi, neither stay connected. Are the better PPTP clients out there? Or something I can tune on my devices perhaps? They both have the maximum power settings for wifi already configured. The tablet is rooted, if that provides me with any other options? |

69886 | MX2 recovery problem | I'm hoping someone can help me with the problem I have. I have a MX2 Android TV Box and flashed it with Matricom firmware, running 4.2.2. When I try to access the SD card in recovery mode it doesn't allow me to do this - Apply from EXT, update from SD card, then it's blank. I've formatted several times and confirmed the files are there but they don't show in recovery. When I open Winzip/File manager on the box I can see my files there. I want to flash the box again but can't from SD because the files won't show. I'm not sure what to do with 'Update from ADB', (is this an option)?. I don't have a lot of knowledge with these things but want to learn if someone can help me. Thanks |
69887 | Run any user apps in safemode? | ## Some Background My Note 2 has strange slow down after hours of use. After hours of usage `system_server` and maybe `kworker` use a lot of CPU, mostly during apps open and switch, it lags badly. I also have around 200 user apps installed, and mostly greenified, so I expected that my device shouldn't be slowed down like this even with a lot of apps installed. I used to experience `system_server` and `kworker` using a lot of CPU on Tab 7.7, but less than 30 user apps installed. Even safe mode, changing ROMs doesn't fix the problem; finally wiping both `/data` and internal SD fixed the problem. It is now fast. So I would like to try running various user apps on safe mode, to see if it still slow down after hours of usage. Or I have to wipe both `/data` and internal SD to fix the slow-down problem like I did in Tab 7.7. I have a lot of data and apps in the internal SD, free space is 1.5 gb/10 gb. I feel lazy to backup and restore (it's a lot of data) and try the fix of wiping data, so I would like to try running a lot of user app in safe mode first. There are some exploits in TouchWiz ROM which allow that: I'm using this 4.4.2 firmware. On this firmware, I can do it partially. By adding apps to lock-screen shortcut. Those apps can be opened in safe mode. In DN3 Rom before Kitkat update, user apps added to Samsung Note 3 Touchwiz Launcher home screen can also be opened, but not anymore in Kitkat update. When I installed custom ROMs on Note 2, I never wiped internal SD, I wiped only `/data` partition, an this probably is the cause of lagginess in Tab 7.7. ## My question So is there any more ways to open user apps in safemode? |
64872 | KitKat uninstalling app from device | I ran into a weird issue on my Nexus 7 running 4.4.2. If I uninstall an app from the device, it still shows up in Settings -> Apps -> Downloaded at the bottom, and it says not installed. However, it prevents me from installing an apk via adb, reporting the app was still installed. I had to do an adb uninstall and that completely removed the app. What changed? What's the proper procedure to remove an app? The only thing that changed that I'm aware of is that now I'm using user profiles, but the app in question is not used in any other profiles. Thoughts? |

64871 | Bluetooth keyboard connection settings | I installed a system update and it changed how the device works when connecting a bluetooth scanner. The tablets I am using are Nexus 7 (the new one released in 2013). They are all identical hardware. Although I think it is irrelevant, the bluetooth scanner I am using is a Motorola CS3070. I am currently running Android version 4.3, build JSS15R. When I connect a bluetooth scanner to my device, I no longer have a soft keyboard. I have to select "Choose input method" and then turn the "Hardware Physical keyboard" setting to OFF. I can then use my bluetooth scanner and the soft keyboard at the same time. I have another identical tablet that I have not updated. It is running Android 4.3, build JWR66N. When I connect my bluetooth scanner, it works as though the "Hardware Physical keyboard" setting mentioned above is turned to OFF. However, there is no setting in the "Choose input method" section to toggle it ON OFF. Although many complained about the way this worked, we actually liked it. I understand why the option was added in the new build. The need was there. My question is whether or not there is a way to setup my tablet so that each time the bluetooth scanner is connected, it will default the "Hardware Physical keyboard" setting to "OFF"? |

65479 | How to force Galaxy S4 to use phone speakers when connected through HDMI? | ## Equipment I have working HDMI dongles, both a Wi-Fi and an MHL, both original Samsung branded connectors. Connecting through screen mirroring (Wi-Fi) works perfectly and if I plug the MHL in it immediately displays the picture. I'm using an LG Flatron IPS235 Monitor as "TV". I have both Samsung Galaxy S4 and S3 at hand (S4 solution is preferred though) ## Problem There's no sound. The monitor does not have a speaker built in. When I connect through either interface the sound immediately mutes (I tried Google Music and the music keeps playing without any sound). I guess the "smart"-phone figures it's HDMI so it must have a speaker... **How can I force the Galaxy S4 to use the phone's speaker?** ## Background I'm trying to play games on my "big" monitor, but having 2-3 cables (power/MHL, audio jack on top) hanging from the phone doesn't really help, that's why I'm trying to reroute only the video and keep the audio in the phone; also I don't have a TV neither external speakers (laptop built-in only). Also I'm kind of forced to use the MHL adapter, because Wi-Fi is sluggish when playing a race game. |
65478 | updated Cyanogenmod 10.2 to 11 and now can't access sdcard0 | Hey guys hoping someone can help me with this: I just updates Cyanogenmod from 10.2 to 11 on a Samsung Galaxy S2 and I can not seem to access SD card 0. The camera does not cuntion and in the file viewer sdcard 0 acts like an empty folder. In clockwork mod I can see that my files are still there I just can't seem to access them (its like the os doesn't have read/write access or its unmounted). I have tried: - reverting back - mounting the sd card manually in clockworkmod then booting - soft reset - hard reset - clearing data and resetting phone to factory through clockwork I am out of ideas. Anyone know this? By googling I can see this is not an uncommon issue but I did not find a solution that helped |
65471 | Is it possible to run a PS2 emulator through Android's DVM? | I have heard some random posts from people on forums claiming that Android's Dalvik Virtual Machine can't handle something of the magnitude of a PS2 emulator, such as this one ported somewhat. Is this true? Are there obvious limitations to a massive program running under Dalvik, or the DVM's workload? With the obvious limitation being the hardware and most devices having major trouble with this for that very reason, is there any **software aspect** that may limit this, in short? |
65470 | How to manually change default save location to phone storage | My phone Iocean X7S has opportunity to save apps to either internal storage, phone storage or external SD-card. However, I can't use phone storage as apps saving location. There is Phone storage and SD card opportunities in Settings -> Storage -> 'Default write disk' . However, whichever I choose as primary, there doesn't happen anything. If external SD card is mounted, there is "Move to SD card" button in apps and a tab 'SD card' in Settings -> Apps. If I unmount SD card, there disappears opportunity to choose primary save location, SD card tab and button to move app another location. However, there reads 'Phone storage app 0.00B' and 'Phone storage data 0.00B' in apps instead of 'SD card app and data' when SD card is unmounted. So I think it is some kind of software issue. I have tried factory reset different ways without any result, there is still only opportunity to keep apps in internal storage or SD-card. In \storage\sdcard0 is external SD-card and \storage\sdcard1 is phone storage. |

81627 | Install Android-x86 in Virtualbox VM, then root it | **Problem** I want to install Android in a VM to restore a backup using Titanium Backup. For this to work I need Android to be rooted. **What I tried** I've tried to install Android-X86 4.3 in a Virtualbox VM. The installation seems to work. I made a 8GB partition disk (sda1), made it bootable, and installed Android in it from an ISO file. This all seems to work. Android starts, I can browse the internet, install apps, etc. Then I want to restart the VM, and guess what?! I go back to the installation screen, like starting up from the ISO live image. For normal stuff I can make a snapshot, start that up, and do anything. My problem is that I need root permission to restore a Titanium Backup in that VM. And I cannot root this VM because the disk is not writeable. With ALT-F1 I become root, and I can use a script to root Android. But my guess is that I'm still on the ISO and that is not writeable. **Update - another try with Android 4.2** As mentioned in the comments, 4.3 would have problems with root access. I tried 4.4, which didn't start at all. Then I tried 4.2, which has the same problem as 4.3 for me. I made a screenshot of what I see when I try to run the rootscript, which is described here. You can see the errors: **rm failed - Read only filesystem** How can I fix this?  **My question** How can I install Android permanently on this VM, so it can reboot and then be rooted? |

19013 | Shell utterly borked, toolbox claims "no such tool" | HTC Magic, rooted with CyanogenMod 5. Tried to install busybox using "Busybox Installer" from the Market, ended up with a strangely borked system. Android does not boot, freezes on the splash screen. ADB shell, however, works. On the other hand, almost none of the commands work. The busybox file is in /system/xbin, it seems. However, whenever I call it, I get "Permission denied". Even after sudo. Running common commands like ls, cp, ln gives the same error message: "permission denied". Seems like those are symlinks to busybox, which is borked, see above. /system/bin/toolbox is there, but it refuses to do most useful commands with a uniform message "No such tool". Ls, cp, mount, chmod, chown - "No such tool". Experimentally I found that set, ps, kill, reboot work. Is there a list of toolbox commands out there? The only message of relevance in logcat is "02-02 01:36:38.280: E/logwrapper(61): executing /system/xbin/busybox failed: Permission denied". I kinda knew that. I can write to the SD card. Is there a way to reflash the busybox while making it executable? Is there an executable file anywhere on /data, so that I could push a copy of busybox there? I can reboot into recovery mode, which is Android's own recovery mode. Any ideas how to bring the system back to usable state? The phone is a scratch phone, so data loss is not an issue - there's no good data there. It seems like making busybox executable somehow would bring everything back. I'm utterly lost, however, how to do that. And I'm rather surprised toolbox won't support chmod. EDIT: funny data point. When I boot into recovery, I still can do ADB shell. And I get a completely different environment - there's command line with ls, busybox (!) and stuff. /system is almost empty. From that environment, can I somehow go back to the regular /system? The mount command is available. |

11616 | Is there a known issue with HTTPS and the Android browser? | I have a Galaxy S2 running 2.3.3, all up to date and not rooted. On several sites I find that logging in is impossible due to requests sent on HTTPS not returning a response. I've not tested the issue exhaustively, but the most notable failures for me are my Natwest online banking and signing in to Stack Exchange sites with my Google ID. In both these cases the response from the server never appears, in the case of Stack sites this happens when clicking the 'Log in with Google' button, I never even get a chance to enter credentials. I've resorted to using Opera Mobile for now, and since this works fine it seems to be an issue localised to the android default browser. Is there a way of fixing it, or should I just choose a different browser and set that as default instead? |

9416 | No touchscreen response when charging | I have a new HTC Desire S in the UK unlocked from Amazon running Android 2.3.3 and HTC Sense 2.1. When I charge the phone the touchscreen is non responsive. I have tried changing Settings > Applications > Development > Stay Awake (screen will never sleep whilst charging) but this makes no difference. The touch screen does not respond, whether the phone is dark, lit up looking for my lock pattern, or unlocked and on the home page. If it is charging and I press the power button the screen will wake up, but still the touchscreen is disabled completely. Hopefully I have been clear that this is not solved by the "stay awake" function (seen elsewhere). So, in summary, when charging the touchscreen is completely disabled and changing the "stay awake" checkbox makes no difference. Any other ideas welcome. THANKS IN ADVANCE. |

What is the safest way now to fully root the phone without risking deleting that "data/data" folder? Update: From the point I reached in this post I proceeded to create a nandroid backup from BOOTLOADER and copied the *.img to a folder on my PC, then used unyaffs to extract the data from data.img. This worked a treat and I didn't have to fully root my phone to find what I was after. One minor problem I encountered was that the first attempt at a backup said it was successful, yet gave me 0 byte files. I just had to free up space on my SD card to fix this. |
57058 | changing the default home & power buttons behaviours on Note 3 | Is there a way that I can configure the following? * double press on the home button shows the recently opened apps. (by default, a double press does that) * long press on the home button triggers the voice search (by default, a double press does that) * long press on the power-off button gives me the recently running apps(by default, it gives me the DEVICE OPTIONS ( poweroff+airplne mode etc...) * alternatively, long press on the power-off button gives me an option to create an action list of my own which may contain items like +turn off the phone, +open app voice recorder +start google search +even a "go back" function... Is there a way in note 3 to get a handle of these functions/actions in terms of a shortcode handle name and then use it in making a list like that? ( I hope this part is not too confusing to you ) What's the ultimate tool/approach that lets one do these such fundamental changes in the way note 3 buttons work? thank you |
57059 | Can I add special characters to the default Android keyboard? | Sometimes I need to type a special character or symbol that is not accessible by default through the Android keyboard. Currently I do this by copy/pasting them from other sources, very inconvenient. Is there a way to add custom characters to the keyboard? It's typically things like currency symbols (such as ₭ ₩ ฿ ƒ) or math symbols (such as ∈ ⇔ ∫ ⌊ ⌋ ∑ ) etc. |

54887 | How to disable Hangouts? | I have an HTC One, and I went to `Settings -> Apps -> All` to disable a few apps I didn't want on my phone (7digital, Facebook, Google Play Music, Google+). The apps are now gone and the update notifications disapeared for these apps in Google Play. But for some reason Hangouts is not there. How can I disable it? |
54882 | battery drainage question on HTC Sensation | HTC Sensation Z710e is one of the phone I have used over years. I found out that this handset’s battery drains extreme fast and I tried to find out some ways to reduce the battery drainage and make battery performance better. I got a replacement battery for Sensation from a friend and this is helpful. I think it probably because I are using the stock battery for too long time? it is also easily got hot now...so how long can a stock battery actually be used?? |
27993 | Tab stays on 216mhz instead of Deep Sleep | I am using Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and I have installed Cpu SPY. I have noticed that when I leave the tab in the night, WiFi OFF, flight mode on, it does not go to Deep Sleep but stays on 216Mhz. I guess it is an app or something, however I do not know how to investigate this. I run 4.0.4 stock, rooted. What can I do to have the device on Deep Sleep the time that it stays on 216Mhz? |
17728 | Secure keyboard application from android market | Is it safe to install a keyboard application from android market that asks full internet access permission?

What is the difference? |
27508 | Jelly Bean OTA fails on Galaxy Nexus, how to fix? | The company I am working for has hundreds of Galaxy Nexus handsets which are used as the standard operating platform of a company specific app. The app is not important. We have found that about 70% of the devices fail to install the standard OTA Jelly Beans update. We are running completely stock OS (4.0.4 ICS) and the devices are not rooted. My questions are: 1. Why does the OTA fail for completely standard builds? Factory reset makes no difference. 2. How can I get some idea as to why the OTA fails? 3. Where does Google provide support for this situation? 4. Can I disable the OTA updates? We are getting very frustrated with the regular interruptions to normal service when the OTA notification pops up no matter what the user is doing. 5. Is there a Google web site that describes how to do the OS update manually? Perhaps we can manually handle the hundreds of handsets, costing us thousands of dollars in labour costs? I have reported this to the code.google.com Android issues list, no response from that. I tried to post a notice on Android Developers but the moderation process there seems to take four or more days, perhaps never. This must be happening tothousands of non-developer users of the Galaxy Nexus, they can not be expected to hack their way around it. Where is the Google fix (or does Google simply not care?). |
27998 | After update to Jelly Bean I am asked to select the E-Mail protocol. Which one should I choose? | Has anyone come across with sync-in email accounts using the native app? For example: I known a Bell.net account (Provided by Bell Canada), which uses Hotmail.com server. On Ice Cream Sandwhich I was able to punch in my email & password and it would automatically connect to my email no issues. When I upgraded to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean it prompt me to select "POP", "IMAP" or "Exchange" setting. Is anyone else experiencing this with either a Bell.net or Hotmail.com accounts? |
17726 | Erasing SD Card contents and personal data | I have an SD card in my Droid Global or Droid X, not exactly sure which model. I go to the files and click on the SD card instead of shred files and delete all of its contents. I then go to Privacy and click the Manufacturer Reset and also click the box to erase SD Card. My phone does a hard reset, and it turns back on. After this process, what is readable on my SD card if someone took it and hooked up to a computer or anything else? If I hadn't done the reset, would someone be able to see text messages, phone calls, or browsing history if I've deleted them all from my phone? |

60644 | Multiple destination organization-navigation with google maps | I hope you understand what I am trying to ask, because it seems little complex for me to explain... Let's try: I want to find a job and I have an Excel list of like 60 places (in my Desktop Computer), each one with its address. I want to have them in my android phone to go out and receive navigation indications from my gps with google maps, and something like check the places like "visited". Oh, and if possible I want to have an optimal route to follow. I found this web service: http://www.gebweb.net/optimap/ That does the work from excel to gmaps pretty well, but the problem is that I don't find a way to make it work (the indications) in android. I tried to find a way to do it with a to-do software, like wunderlist or evernote, onenote... but I dont know how to achieve my goal... Also I seen tripit and other apps, but don't accept bulk input or import and also are NOT FREE, so please, I have not money at the moment to buy an app like tripit or routexl :( Thanks and excuse me for the size of my question. |
60647 | Accelerometer on Moto G is bad from factory? | I got a Motorola Moto G a few weeks ago and unfortunately it came with what I suspect is a failing accelerometer. I say that because when I open any level (bubble) application it reads random numbers in a wide range, even after the app calibration and on a flat surface (no sensor calibration on the phone settings). Let me show you the video to make it easier to understand: http://youtu.be/FD35Uk4HmXo I tried four different applications and all of them show the same symptoms- the bubble moving randomly in almost one full degree. When I talked to Motorola technicians they blamed the application(s), so they recommended me to return the phone and get a new one. To my surprise the new device (the one shown in the video) does the same exact thing! Now I wonder, do I have bad luck and got two defective Moto G? Or they messed up and put a bad sensor in the devices? Or I am doing something wrong!? Does anyone have this issue with their own Moto G? Thanks :-) |

63591 | How to force retrieving app icon for apps downloaded from Google Play? | On my Nexus 5 running Android KitKat 4.4.2, I noticed that from time to time, the apps I downloaded from Google Play would come with missing icon, so it defaults back to the green android robot icon:  Click image for larger version Two applications that I have found to produce the issue for me. * FLV Video Player * Bayes Theorem I have yet to figure out a proper solution to this, but I can't be the only person experiencing this issue, so I was wondering if any seasoned android users can help me resolve this issue. I already tried to do a quick search on android stackexchange, and on google, but I did not come up with a solution that caters to stock android. I did find something similar, but that appears to work only for for Kindle Fire. Thanks for reading. |

63598 | Wallpaper doesn't rotate or stretch to match the screen when in landscape mode | I have a Samsung Stratosphere, running Android 2.3.6. My problem is that when I'm on the home screen and I slide the keyboard out (putting the device into landscape mode), the wallpaper does not change with the rest of screen. For the purposes of illustration, I've made a home screen less cluttered than my real one, and used a wallpaper whose orientation can be more easily discerned (see here for the full image). Click on the screenshots below for larger versions.   As you can see, the wallpaper doesn't rotate to match the orientation of the screen, nor does it stretch; there are just some (very silly looking) black bars. I owned a Stratosphere for a few years, during which I never had this problem with the wallpaper; however, the wallpaper I used during this time was just an image consisting of just a solid color, so I can't say for sure whether the wallpaper was being rotated or stretched. All I know is that I never had any black bars. But I recently dropped it and had to get a replacement via my Asurion insurance policy, and now an ostensibly identical device has this problem. Any help would be appreciated. |

62642 | Root - How to remove one of the superuser app? | I rooted my phone a month ago and downloaded the SuperUser app yesterday. However, when I use the app SuperSU, it is not running and it said i need to update a file. I could not update it. What can I do? How can I remove SuperUser? |
62640 | Unable to copy files to Nexus 7 / Android KitKat | I've got brand new, factory-based, un-tweaked ASUS Nexus 7 II (2013) LTE tablet and I'm completetly unable to copy more than just a few files between my PC and tablet. Steps, that I repeat every time are painfully obvious: * plugs these two devices together, * wait until Nexus device appears in Windows, * open source folder window (any on Windows disk), * open destination folder (any on my Nexus device), * select some files or folders in source and drag them to destination. Copy process starts and stops after sending about 10-20 files. On Windows side, copy progress freezes forever. On Nexus side, you see beatuful message saying that `com.android.media` process is halted. I can repeat these steps over and over again. Changing cables, using different computers, restarting source computer or Nexus itself, all for nothing -- my Nexus 7 breaks file transfer after receiving about 20 files (sometimes it breaks after getting just one). I know, that MTP protocol is very, very unstable and forcing users to use it (i.e. removing native USB support in Android 4.x) is a Google very not funny joke. But, for God sake, how can I copy my 20k photo collection to my brand new Nexus tablet, if it breaks copy transfer every tenth files? Is this an identified bug, or with Android 4.4.2 Google decided, that we won't be able to copy files to our own devices at all? And the only way to get them there, will be to use stupid Google Drive? Is there any fix or work-around to this problem? Other than my own solution, as stupid as setting up local FTP server, installing FTP client to my Nexus and copying files that way, through FTP protocol? |
54773 | Any way to auto close Chrome when closing the last tab? | I have been using the stock Android browser for several years and I am trying to make the switch over to Chrome. The one major annoyance I have with Chrome is that the browser doesn't automatically close when I close the last tab like it does in the stock Android browser. This may not seem like a big deal, but I tend to use a lot of apps that open web pages. With the stock Android browser, closing the last web page will auto close the browser and return me back to the app I was using. With Chrome, I have to manually close the browser or manually switch back to the app I was using. Does anyone know how to make Chrome automatically close down when I close the last tab? If not, is there another good browser that works this way? |

54771 | SuperSU vs Root | I have seen two methods, which claim that they root an Android device, that I don't know the difference of. Method 1 is as easy as installing the SuperSU from Google Play. Method 2 is going downloading some files, going to recovery mode by pushing some complex buttons simultaneously, and much more difficult stuff. (e.g. here) What is the difference? Does Rooting in both methods mean the same thing? If yes, why should anyone bother himself trying the second method? Regards |

20416 | Barcode Scanning with a low res camera (3.2mp) | I have two phones, one has a 3.2mp camera, the other has an 8mp camera. I downloaded the 'Barcode Scanner' app on both phones, it works on the 8mp phone but the 3.2mp phone doesnt pick up any barcodes at all. Is there a way around/fix to get the 3.2mp phone to scan the barcodes?

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to perform an update on his pc? / Does anyone know in what system folder the Android SDK stores the API15 installation files? Thanks alot! |

53865 | OS services and Android OS using data | I have a question following up Locking applications to wifi only data connections: I followed the guide given in its answer and notice some applications (like Android OS) don't have the option to be turned off. Is there any solution for this? At Data Usage the "app" called Android OS is using data but I don't wanna use data unless I'm on WiFi for that process. What I'm trying to achieve (on the _Xperia Z_ ) is that on WiFi all apps have full access to the internet. On mobile data I only want Whatsapp and Gmail to be syncronised. I disabled everything that uses data exept the mentioned apps above and I can't get I also have My Data Manager installed. It says _OS services_ is using 111kb so far, and it's going up. Another process called _Android System_ has used 78kb. In short again the question: some applications (like Android OS) don't have the option to be turned off in Data Usage. Is there a way to stop this process (and other processes) to use data unless I'm on WiFi? |
78286 | Internal storage still being used despite of sd card | I have a 4 GB micro sd card mounted in my Micromax Bolt A58. But, whenever I install some apps, it shows "not enough storage space".

78289 | My Galaxy S4 isn't recognized as a drive | I'm running Windows 7. When I connect with USB, it recognizes that I plugged in a device. And if I head to device manager, I find my device. However, it's not treated like a drive. When I go to my phone (while USB plugged in), I don't have any options as I did with previous Galaxy S series phones to treat this as a media device etc. In fact, KIES doesn't even work with the device. It first told me Kies (1) can't work with this device and asked me to upgrade to KIES 3. Which I did, but it now tells me I can't use Kies 3 with this device. In short, I can plug in and charge it and see it as a Device in device manager... but that's it. I had someone attempt to Unlock the phone (and they failed). I'm wondering if that's connected to my problem. If they "broke" something. So far Kies installs / re-installs (of both versions), reboots, plug / un- plugs etc aren't accomplishing anything and I think the "unlocking" attempt might have been the issue. Thoughts? How can I scan or fix this? |

65850 | Email doesn't sync over data, does sync over Wi-Fi | Ok, I just got a Droid Mini and I've been trying to get it to sync both the Gmail and the stock email applications when I'm using the data connection. They refuse to auto-sync until I switch to Wi-Fi, at which point they sync instantly, even though the data connection is fine and my other apps have no problem. So far I've tried: Checking that "Restrict background data" under Data Usage is NOT checked. Checking that "Restrict background data" on the individual apps and the Motorola Services app is NOT checked. Checking that "Sync" under Accounts IS checked for both apps. Checking under the individual app settings that both "Notifications" and "Sync" ARE checked. Going to "Access Point Names" under Mobile Network Settings and resetting to default. Changing "Network Mode" from Global to LTE/CDMA. Restarting my phone. I'm out of ideas. What else could possibly be preventing my email from syncing over data? |

I lose internet access for a little while, for no good reason. I could turn off auto-connecting to known Wi-Fi networks, but then I'm getting rid of a useful, bandwidth-saving feature. Any ideas for ways to get the best of both worlds, auto-connecting only to Wi- Fi networks that don't require a captive portal to sign in? |
