27575 | What information is more reliable -- battery capacity or stand-by time? | _Stand-by time (not talk) because I rarely use the phone actually ;-)_ Let's say there are two phones -- Xperia Mini and Wildfire S -- both have very similar battery 1200 mAh and 1230 mAh (respectively), so one could expect similar stand-by times as well. Yet for Xperia Mini it is "Up to 340 h (2G) / Up to **320** h (3G)" and for Wildfire S "Up to 360 h (2G) / Up to **570** h (3G)". You can see that for 3G network the difference is huge (almost double). Wildfire S has slower CPU (600 MHz vs. 1 GHz in Xperia) but what kind of computation is done in stand-by mode? _Another oddity Xperia is more efficient in 2G, while Wildfire in 3G_. **QUESTION:** without any head to head tests, what information is more reliable -- capacity or times? I.e. those two phones would stay on one charge for the same amount time or indeed not? * * * I copied the data from GsmArena pages: Xperia Mini http://www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_xperia_mini-3947.php and Wildfire S http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_wildfire_s-3777.php |
67109 | Is it normal for Wi-Fi to always be on? | I have a Nexus 4 running CyanogenMod `10.2.1.-mako`. While trying to figure out why my battery life seems to be shorter than usual, I have noticed that my Wi-Fi is constantly on. Shouldn't the Wi-Fi turn itself off when the phone is not in use? Could this be responsible for my lower battery life? (I had much longer battery life on earlier CM versions)   |
67102 | Android application firewall - interactive prompt confirmation for connections | I'm thinking of developing application, or probably extending AFWall+ app What I'm missing on Android is possibility to confirm each connection from each application, simply blocking the application on some networks is already solved, but I want to have very specific control over what URLs/IPs the application is talking to. I've made proposal https://github.com/ukanth/afwall/issues/269 Which is generally the same functionality as provided on OS X from Little Snitch application firewall. Possibility to create time-domain-port rules per application (unix uid/guid) I'm thinking about using some kind of mashup of IPTables and possibly intercepting `sock_create` syscall. It will be open-source and free, if anybody wants to jump on the bandwagon, you're welcome. So the question is, is there anything like this already done? Even paid applications. I haven't really found anything like that, so I'd just like to be sure, before jumping into development of such large thing :-) |

What happened? is there a way around this? |

68826 | Cyanogen and Google Play compatibility | I already read, how to install Google Play on Cyanogen. But then what? Do the apps from Play store install seamlessly, like on "standard" Android? Some apps require minimum version of Android. Google Play "tells" me, if certain app is compatible with my device. If eg. app requires Android 4.4, does it mean, that it will or will not work on Cyanogen? |
68821 | How to root Samsung Galaxy Ace II X | I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace II X smartphone, and for various reasons, would like to root it. It is running android version 4.0.4. How exactly do I root it? Should I download the necessary files, or make them myself? (I have no idea how to make them). I would also like to somehow have a way to undo the rooting if necessary, and have a backup of everything on my phone now. I have heard that rooting could cause my phone to become a "brick" or be completely useless, should I be concerned about this? Also, my computer is a mac, if that makes any difference whatsoever in the rooting process. |

23056 | Why hasn't my Galaxy Nexus received the latest OTA update? | I have a Galaxy Nexus and I live in Belgium (so my phone is not locked to a specific carrier). The Android version is still 4.0.4 and when I go the system update menu, it doesn't do anything, no OTA update. I thought the version 4.1 or even 4.1.1 was available. How can I update it 'officially'? Of course, I already searched but I only found update packages that I'm not sure I can trust. |
23051 | LG P500 Not Starting After Full Discharge | My LG P500, with FroYo, doesn't seem to be working. I let my battery completely die and now, even while plugged in, it won't turn on.

23050 | How to upgrade Galaxy Nexus from 4.0.1 to 4.0.4 | I would like to know how to manually upgrade my Samsung Galaxy Nexus from Android version 4.0.1 to the latest 4.0.4. I got this phone in Australia and it is currently running the "yakjudv" build rather than the standard "yakju" build. My understanding it that the "yakju" build is the standard one produced by Google and that the "yakjudv" build is one produced by my carrier and hence why I am not getting the standard Google updates. I am prepared to move to the standard Google build if it is easier. |
23052 | How can I change my Asus Eee Pad's language from Taiwanese to English? | I bought a Asus Eee Pad and when I did a factory reset the language was in Taiwanese. How do I change it back to English? It looks like it only has Taiwanese on it. I called Asus and they couldn't help me as they said that it had been converted into English by a Jail Broken Flash. I have no idea what that is. |
62694 | Formatting SD Card without internal Android utility | My Android version (v2.3.4) is a custom one, a Beta unofficial version, and lacks of format option in Settings --> Storage.

29105 | Can I wipe my phone even if I use it for 2-step verification? | I fear that if I reset my phone to factory defaults I'll never be able to access my Google Account again, since I use the Google Authentication app on it to provide the 2nd step of the verification. Am I right? Should I remain worried? |

79531 | What missing libraries would cause ADW and Launcher 3 to fail to start? | I'm trying to install ADW or Launcher3(or really any other launcher) on a device Whenever I start ADW or Laucncher3 from am it just keeps looping back to 'Complete action using' regardless if you say just this once or to save the default. The only way anything happens is if you select the OEM launcher again. It seems like maybe I'm missing some core libraries. What missing .so or apk or jar etc might cause this? How can I get an alternate launcher to work? I have tried adding Velvet.apk and a gcore.apk but it seems maybe it is more low level Logcat shows a null pointer error and then the launchers force closing and also: > E/AndroidRuntime( 928): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity > ComponentInfo{com.android.launcher3/com.android.launcher3.Launcher}: > java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Can't convert to dimension: > type=0x12 > > I/dalvikvm( 928): Could not find method > android.appwidget.AppWidgetManager.bindAppWidgetIdIfAllowed, referenced from > method com.android.launcher3.Launcher.a |
79533 | Exchange ActiveSync device agent strings for Android OS version | I am creating reports based off of our Exchange ActiveSync logs. One of the fields in the EAS logs is "Device Agent" which tells me the device type and what version of Android the device is on. An example string from this field is: SAMSUNG-GT-N7000/100.20306 where the first part before the "/" is the device and the second part is the Android version. I am sure the version number maps to the Android version since these strings are different than the EAS client strings. An example of and EAS client string is "Android-EAS/2.0" where the number is the version of the ActiveSync client. Devices with those strings report the Android version in another column. Here are some additional examples of the Android version numbers: 100.202, 100.20303, 100.20304, 100.20305, 100.20306, 100.40003, 100.40004 I was able to leverage this resource for the iOS devices: http://www.onesimplescript.com/2012/06/reporting-on-apple-ios-activesync.html What I can't figure out is a mapping of the Android versions from these strings to their "friendly" names (KitKat, Ice Cream Sandwich, etc). Are there any resources available that map these numeric OS versions to the OS name? |
79532 | How to watch a periodically shot image on other PC/Smartphone via Internet (no local WIFI)? | There are a lot of webcam apps for Android. Unfortunately most work only in a local WIFI network, real streaming of the android cam over internet seems rather tricky, but not impossible. I'm just interested to see a periodic image of a lab device (updated every 30-60 sec). Options like Google Hangout video chat or Skype video chat with two accounts would work, but the video quality is quite poor for this realtime solution, some images with adjustable resolution made periodically would be better and save battery (this app might resolve this problem) Teamviewer Quick Support looks nice, remote control & view via PC of your android device, so I would just need an app that makes periodically an image: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Nishant.Singh.DroidTimelapse https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.dinglisch.android.taskerm But is there an app that does this all in a more easy manner? Without starting several apps and hacks? Just making an image every 30-60 seconds and send it to imageshare service and update the browser tab on PC every 30-60 seconds. But the URL therefore should not change. Or giving the the android phone a IP via dyndns and run somekind of FTP server on it, where the image gets replaced on and on. I'm not sure what the easiest and most reliable option is, anybody has a tip? Edit: I'm root and on 4.2.2 (Xperia Z) |
34558 | Siri-like answers in Google Voice Search on 4.2 | On my Nexus 7 (4.2, all updates, German), I can start searches using speech in Google Now, but I can't get it to do anything else. In particular: It never opens cards when I ask about the weather for example, it never answers with speech, and it doesn't perform any commands (like call/text somebody). I've seen all these functions in videos promoting Jelly Bean features, and believe they should be there. Basically, instead of working like Siri, I just have a search textbox with the voice input method. I've searched the Play market, but didn't find anything that looked like it might help. How can I get Google Now / Voice Search to answer me? Edit: If I switch the language to English, I get the Weather card (in a German-English mishmash), but I still don't get any spoken answers. |
34556 | Why does text disappear after browser page load on a HTC MyTouch 4G? | I'm trying to visit pages like http://irclog.perlgeek.de/crimsonfu/2012-12-01 on my HTC MyTouch 4G running Android 2.2.1 (WebKit 3.1) but I can't read them. The text is visible for a moment until the browser has finished loading and then disappears as demonstrated in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TriSozFkA-Y This is very strange behavior to me because the page looks fine on an LG Optimus V also running Android 2.2.1. On a site I control running the same server software (ilbot), I've found that I can fix the problem by disabling jquery as I reported to the developer at http://irclog.perlgeek.de/ilbot/2012-12-02#i_6204076 This is only a solution for sites I control, however, so I'm wondering what the fix might be. Any clues or reports of being able to reproduce the problem would be very helpful. |

First of all, I want the S-Pen handwrite keyboard, as well as the S-Note app. Also, if possible make peel work (very unlikely, but just in case anyone had make that work) I tried to install these from an unzipped stock ROM but (as expected) it didn't work. Do I have to install any library? If yes, which? BTW: Please do not recommend other ROMs. I want CM. Maybe alternative apps. If I find the libraries and APKs, I may create a flashable zip. |

If I were to root my device, will I still be able to get updates from the manufacture? Its great that Asus has been so great about keeping such an old device up to date, but it makes me more apprehensive about making changes like rooting. I need to root it to change the hardware keyboard to the dvorak layout. I still need to find if I can even root it after I've upgraded to 4.1. |

77281 | Green LED always on | My Galaxy S4 GREEN LED stays on, but is sporadic, it fades in and out, blinks, etc. It Looks like it would if it was monitoring sound: brighter, dimmer, flicker, Solid. Very random. I did backup/restore and problem persists. |
77280 | Allow "unknown sources" from Terminal without going to Settings App? | I have a corrupted Settings app in CyanogenMod and have a possible idea to restore a backup of it (App and Data) in Titanium Backup. But it's currently set to not allow "unknown sources" so Titanium cannot actually restore the old Settings over the current (corrupted) one. I have a Terminal app installed on the phone. Is there a command in Terminal to essentially 'tick' that "unknown sources" setting, since I can't open the Settings app itself? (It gives this.) |
77285 | CANVAS HD not connectable via USB | I am unable to connect my phone (Canvas HD) in USB Mass Storage form or any other USB options. Although I am getting the animation of mass storage.

77284 | Is it possible to unlock a device from terminal? | Is it possible to use adb (or a similar tool) to recover data from a password protected android device with a damaged screen? I have the password so this isn't about bypassing the password lock, I just can't enter the password on the damaged screen. |
66760 | Why does GMail appear on my phone without unlocking? | If I use GMail and then lock my phone, when I switch it back on, GMail is usable before the PIN has been entered. I can use it entirely as normal but for the absence of the show all apps button at the bottom of the screen, and pressing home takes me to my lock screen. This is obviously a massive security hole! Is there an option somewhere that I've missed to enable this functionality? I'm using a rooted Nexus 5 with The Xposed framework and GravityBox. |
74955 | Xperia Sola keeps rebooting after reset | I have a Sony Xperia Sola phone that keeps rebooting after having done a factory reset. It's been like that for hours now. I have never flashed anything custom on the phone but did an official update (with Sony update companion) once to ICS which has been working fine for months. The problem appeared after doing the factory reset. The phone is no longer under warranty and was bought without a carrier contract. So I suspect that the bootloader is not locked.. How could I fix this? I've been reading and trying for hours now and I was thinking of flashing a stock rom on the phone but not sure how to do this. And even if it has a chance of working. Sony provides a tool called Emma but it does not recognize the phone. I held the volume down button pressed and then connected usb but it does not work. I noticed that holding down volume up and power button turns the phone off but when I restart, it keeps rebooting as before. Any advice would be greatly appreciated on how to fix or flash to something working. |
66762 | How do i fix optimus zone/dynamic storage? | The problem is, there is no "move to sd" option when you try to switch over an app. This is a problem because the internal storage is 1 GB and phone storage is about 200MB. This is not enough to install more than a few apps depending on what they are. In the app manager, there is a button for "move to phone" or "move to internal storage." But there is no move to sd. Plus the phone won't read apps off of the sd card anyways. Last, there is no option for choosing default storage area and even if there was there is still the above mentioned problem that the phone would not read the sd card apps. |

Sometimes even working with 1 application will make my phone get switched off. If it happens i have to wait for 10 minutes to get my phone back again normal. In between if i try to switch on my phone again it will get switch off. This issue happens when my phone internal storage is full and i thought because of no disk space it happens. I even posted a question about the internal storage space issue. Android phone system data is keep eating the space But after that I went to recovery mode and repaired my phone and now its like a new phone. I thought all issues got over but after that i found this issue is still there and makes me annoyed everytime it gets shutdown'd by any app. But the interesting fact is this shutdown issue is not happening when the phone is in charge. I can run any number of apps when my phone in charge and it works great. I have collected log using "Log Collector" app and attached the link below.

73369 | Smartwatch has no keyboard menu in Android Settings | I bought a Chinese Android 4.2.2 smartwatch and discover it does not have a virtual keyboard. There is also no "keyboard" option in Settings (there is "Language" only instead of the usual "Language and Keyboard"). I want to install a virtual keyboard on the watch so that I don't have to rely on using the smartphone as a keyboard (connected to the watch through bluetooth by a companion app). I installed a third party keyboard (Anysoftkeyboard), and another app called Quick Keyboard Switch that can enable and set keyboards without going through the Android Settings menu. When I run Quick Keyboard Switch and tried to enable the downloaded keyboard, the app force closed. This is the part of the logcat that I think is relevant when the keyboard switching app force closes: uncaught exception occurred W/System.err(16742): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.android.settings/com.android.settings.Settings$InputMethodAndLanguageSettingsActivity}: android.app.Fragment$InstantiationException: Unable to instantiate fragment com.android.settings.inputmethod.InputMethodAndLanguageSettings: make sure class name exists, is public, and has an empty constructor that is public I am not a developer nor do I know much about computing and programming. I learn scraps here and there by googling. This is what I manage to do so far: 1. pulling a copy of Settings.apk from /system/app, and use apktools to decompile it. I see reference to "InputMethodAndLanguageSettings" but I don't know what they mean or what to do. 2. look at the build.prop 3. googling for "unable to instantiate fragment, make sure class name exists, is public, and has an empty constructor that is public" and found a post here: stackexchange post I have gone as far as my understanding took me, and I hope someone can guide me to restore the keyboard settings (set default, change properties etc.) in the Android Settings menu. I hope that this may be something easy that the original programmer deliberately omitted and I can add or restore easily. Thanks. |

All great, except a stupid icons change and the balloons added to the SMS application (I did not like it as well). The biggest surprise, however, was something else: On accounts list configured on the phone appeared Facebook account that was used on our notebook at home. Horror and consternation came over me, how the hell it came into the phone and why. Anybody know how to explain that to me how permanent surveillance worked in this case? Facebook has never been used on this phone although the as the default application is accessible. Because I was kicked off with that question from general stackoverflow - more technically: Who can explain mi technical ways of achieving such information by the Facebook application on Android while Facebook was never used previously? How such data could be gathered that caused Facebook account to appear together with Google accounts. I would like to know what developer can do to achieve such effect of invigilation by Facebook? |
31902 | Can't get Google Play after flashing firmware | I've recently rooted my phone in pursuit of freeing up the internal memory from system apps. I then tried uninstalling Gmail by deleting the file and then trying to reinstall it from the play store but the apk deletion seemed to put it in a strange state where it disappeared from the phone (after a while when the icon was first removed and replaced by the default android app icon and then once after resetting the phone, it didn't exist any more; but still the play store considers it as installed). I tried flashing my phone to the same firmware as I had earlier (XSG), and now I cant get Google play (only the outdated Google market, which doesn't allow any installs from the play store online). My phone runs on Android 2.2 Froyo. Any idea what to do? Thanks |
31903 | Unable to send from outlook email account synced on phone, error - Unable to sign or encrypt message. Certificate not installed | I have my work outlook account synced on my Samsung. For the first month, sending and receiving emails from my phone worked fine. Currently, I am able to receive emails but when I try to send them I get the error "Unable to sign or encrypt message.

44642 | How can I erase whole phone securely? | How can I erase my phone completely and securely before selling it for someone else? I have read that secure deletion procedures used on regular hard disks are ineffective on flash drives connected through USB, due to inability to tell the embedded controller to effectively erase all of the data, or something like that. Not sure about internal storage though (both phone storage and internal SD card), however both of this and the SD card should be erased securely, so that I can be absolutely sure that none of my private data will be available to the next user. ## About the duplication status I have checked other answers and I could not find evidence that Eraser, CCleaner or similar tools are going to wipe the SD card. In fact, I remember taking a look at a paper demonstrating that even Gutmann algorithm is _not_ effective on flash drives. For example, here we find evidence that tools such as Eraser or CCleaner will not handle it: > _You can't just overwrite a file to securely erase on a flash drive due to > internal logical to physical remapping of flash blocks by the controller. > When you overwrite a file, the new contents will simply go to the next free > flash block. The old block will be erased later by the controller during > idle/garbage collection cycles, but only if no other files are using parts > of that block. Until that happens, the contents of the old file will still > reside in that flash block_. > > _The only way to securely erase a flash memory drive without a built in > secure erase function is to completely overwrite the entire media to full > capacity such that there are no more free flash blocks so that every block > must be erased and overwritten._ Even so, I am still not sure if overwriting the entire drive would do the trick, because I remember something like flash drives have some sort of extra space used to prevent decrease of total space due to damages to specific areas of the memory during its lifetime. And this extra storage would not be normally accessible by these usual tools and procedures. About internal storage, I am not sure if I trust Nuke My Phone either, specially because I want to erase whole phone, not automatically selected parts of it. I also do not understand well how a simple app would have such permission to wipe all of "your data" which I would assume may include not just your documents but settings from other applications, all this without rooting. I could not find not even an explanation on the hardware architecture of internal storage, which is necessary since every kind of storage device has its own particularities and, if ever possible, their own secure erasing techniques. So in sum, I would really appreciate documentation _proving_ that physical deletion is indeed possible both for external SD cards, with their flash drive architecture, and internal storage, whatever architecture is used there. Thanks in advance! |

51106 | mounting nfs, cifs, etc on android 4.3 | On my new Nexus 7 running android 4.3, /proc/filesystems claims to have support for cifs, nfs, and nfs4 built into the kernel. Unfortunately, also on android 4.3, google has arrange things so that everyone has their own mountpoint namespace, so while I can, in fact, mount an nfs4 directory from my fedora 19 server in a rooted shell, I can't see that mountpoint anywhere outside that shell (which puts a crimp in the usefulness of the mount). Is there any way to make a newly created mountpoint visible to all apps? (Other than modifying the kernel or something like that). This android doc page has some cryptic info at the bottom about the namespace issue: http://source.android.com/devices/tech/storage/index.html |

51101 | New Android maps - how to show navigation without destination | Older version of Google Maps for android had a separate Navigation app, in it I could either set a destination for guided navigation or simple select "Display map" with would always show my GPS location as I travel (streets, turns etc.) With recently updated map app, I can either see my static location on the map or choose destination for navigation. How do I simple display dynamic navigation map that would display my current location as I drive? |
25545 | How do I invoke "su" from a terminal prompt? | I can get a root prompt in the terminal by running one exploits documented elsewhere. (e.g. here: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Motorola_Droid_2_Global:_Full_Update_Guide) At this point, I can install the "su" binary and give it permissions 4755. This should allow anyone to execute it, and since the owner of the binary is "root" and the sticky bit is set, I should become root. But I apparently have no way of un-become root from the terminal short of rebooting. But, after I reboot, then I can't seem to become root using 'su'. $ ls -l /system/bin/su -rwsr-xr-x root app_101 26234 2012-07-09 15:00 su Ok, the permissions look fine, should I should be able to run it to become root, but only in this particular invocation of the terminal. $ /system/bin/su Permission denied It also fails if i specify the command to run as root, or with any other arguments: $ /system/bin/su /system/bin/sh Permission denied Why? Is there some other mechanism at work? I don't want to install Superuser.apk, because I just want a way that I can temporarily get a root shell if needed, for instance to delete unwanted files manually. Besides, Superuser.apk relies on the su binary anyway, so it must have some way of calling it, so why can't I replicate that in the terminal? Edit: I had another thought, so I tried copying /bin/sh to another locattion and made it suid root. But while I can execute the new binary, it doesn't give me root. Is Android doing something tricky/different with suid that regular Linux does not do? |
25544 | Delete a folder in my home screen Android 4.0, Aquos? | My home screen looks like this: Empty_folder | Application 1 | Application 2 | Application N When I long press over the folder, I have the option to rename it. How do I delete the folder, though? I've been moving them to a different screen, but now I have three screens of blank folders that I accidentally created by trying to rearrange icons. Also, I wonder how do I switch two icons on my home screen? When I drag two items into each other, they don't switch but rather create a folder and then add themselves to it, which seems ridiculous. In any other OS, if I want a new folder, I have to be very specific about that. |

I already have the HTC Clock application and as far as I am aware it is fully updated but I'm assuming that the HTC Clock doesn't support the voice actions. Where is the correct "Clock" application? Opening the Market and searching for "Clock" doesn't seem to show any promising results (though I have to admit that I haven't checked all 1062 hits). Has anyone got this working on an HTC Desire?

41356 | Why does my Android device slow down after successive ROM updates without wiping? | I have a 32 GB Verizon Galaxy Nexus (toro). I am running Cyanogenmod 10.1 ROM nightlies and I use CyanDelta Updater to stay up to date. For a period of about 3 weeks, I updated to the latest nightly nearly every day using CyanDelta. Sometimes I'd download the full ROM instead of using CyanDelta. During this time, I never wiped the device (aka factory reset). I just applied the new release on top of the old. Recently, my phone's performance degraded significantly. There were long delays unlocking, long delays switching apps, long delays doing just about everything. The phone would freeze up, and the OS would ask if I wanted to end a process because it wasn't responding. My podcatcher would stutter while playing. Instead of switching to another ROM, I decided to first do a full wipe (factory reset). I used Titanium Backup to back up my user apps and data. In TeamWin Recovery, I did a factory reset, flashed the same CM 10.1 nightly I was running previously, restored my apps using Titanium, signed into accounts, etc. My phone's performance has been completely restored. It's like night and day. My question is: Why did that work? What is it about applying successive ROM versions that could cause a slowdown that a wipe would fix? I love my new level of performance, but I also enjoy keeping up with the latest releases. It would seem I can't have my jelly beans and eat them too. Now I'm reluctant to flash any updates without doing a full wipe. |

13543 | Reducing the list of language options | I would like to see an option that allows the list of available languages reduced to those I actually need. When I use Voice Search, switching between English and Spanish is a pain: way too many options to choose from. All I need is a selection of the few languages that I speak, and not the entire list time and time again. When I input using a keyboard, I can have different types of keyboards, eg. US international and Dutch. It is easy to switch between those, but the voice input does not follow suit. I don't know why Voice Input language should not be in sync with selected keyboard option. This is on HTC Wildfire S with HTC Sense, btw. Any views? |
15870 | Why does controlling CPU frequency require root access? | According to this answer one of the programs that requires root access is SetCPU that can lower the CPU frequency when the phone is not used thus prolong battery life.

Each time I can boot into recovery and ClockworkMod displays. However, if I completely reboot my device (boot into Android and then reboot), when I try to run recovery, my phone shows an android with a red exclamation point and refuses to boot.

41833 | Why can't I use su to run under another app's permissions? | It's well-known that every Android app is its own user. I have Android Terminal Emulator installed as user **u0_a5**. u0_a5@android:/ $ whoami u0_a5 u0_a5@android:/ $ groups u0_a5 sdcard_rw sdcard_r inet all_a5 Under adb, any attempt to use the **su** command to log in as Android Terminal Emulator only partly succeeds. As the following adb session shows, the permission groups that Android Terminal Emulator belongs to aren't inherited, except for the default user **u0_a5** group. root@android:/ # su - u0_a5 Unknown id: u0_a5 1|root@android:/ # su - 10005 app_5@android:/ $ whoami u0_a5 app_5@android:/ $ groups u0_a5 As user **10005** I can delete files owned by user **u0_a5**. But I can't execute commands that require special Android permissions, such as "busybox wget protocol://some.uri", which requires an app to belong to the **inet** group. So is there a way to impersonate and run an app under its specific permissions environment? Or is running with full root permissions my only (non)choice? |
77487 | Capturing LTE(?) voice packets with Shark for Root | I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 LTE. I installed Shark for Root but it only captures web traffic.

30620 | Space problem in Samsung Galaxy Pocket GT-S5300 | I've seen many questions on this site asking about the famous space problems in Android phones. None of those I've seen helped me and since none of them asked about my phone, I'd like to present a new case. I have three memories, and this is a table showing the usage:  What's most bothering is how an advanced phone like this would have such basic problems. I've tried: * setting the default installing path to the SD card: **No such setting**. * moving apps to the SD Card using apps like App2SD: **Some cannot be moved**. I really don't know what else to do. Am I really forced to delete apps? I don't want to delete any of those I've installed (they are 14), why should I do that with **over 9 GB of free space available**? I'm just hoping there's an option I missed. |

37160 | How does the Ubuntu Phone OS relate to the Android OS? | I've read that the new announced Ubuntu Phone OS was heavily inspired by Android, while not using Java and the Dalvik VM for its apps. However, it was also not clear whether it's a fork of the AOSP or a custom ROM (I doubt it) or just if it's conceptually inspired by Android or some part of it was forked from Android (i.e. kernel, etc.). Would Android apps _possibly_ be able to work on Ubuntu Phone OS? |

However, the downloads for i9100 list **only** downloads for CyanogenMod 10. I currently have the 9.1-galaxys2 ROM running on my phone, so I'm somewhat certain that _those_ builds work for my phone. What's the difference between the two builds and how can I determine which is the right one for my phone? |

41681 | Are there "end of life" plans for Android? | I am wondering if there is a schedule for Android versions or devices to reach _end of life_ some day? The term _end of life_ refers to a state when developers decide to stop supporting a certain software version with updates. I was reading a related article on _androidcentral_. So, currently Android 4.x is pretty common and rumors say 5.0 might come out in may, are there any _end of life_ plans for any 2.x versions? I got a HTC Wildfire S with Android 2.3 and a Toshiba AC100 with Android 2.1. (Is the support bound to major version numbers or rather to devices?) * * * **Update** : I never asked at any point for speculations. I'm a software engineer and used to end-of-life or end-of-support plans. I'm am new to Android and I noticed my devices are equipped with pretty _old_ versions, according to the link in the first comment: **3 years** old, which is a pretty long term in a software life cycle (for example _normal_ Ubuntu releases got only 18 months lifetime). Is the support bound to major version numbers or rather to devices? Are there any end-of-life plans for Android or does that just happen if some version or devices does not get enough attention on the mobile markets? My research on this topic was not very effective. That's why I'm asking the community. I've got no intention to seed rumors or speculations. A "no" would be a valid (but poor) answer. |

As you can see there is no such line which would be about scan result: `wpa_supplicant - New scan results available` I did a factory reset by cleaning the settings app data, but that did not help. Any suggestion? the phone has a custom ROM, but I had no problems with wifi before, even during the development period. This problem came unexpectedly. additionaly my app can scan in every 10 sec as well, and after 5-6 trial it finds some hotspot. but before that, no scan result at all when startscan() was called. Any suggestion how to repair the scanning feature of the phone? **Edit:** here is a logcat which is containing scan results |
40551 | Add an application to the Open With Menu | I'm using a Samsung Note II running Jelly Bean 4.1.2. I would like to add an application to the open with list. I have downloaded a photo editing app. While in the gallery, I would like to be able to select a picture and open it with this app but it's not in the list. Thank you. :) |
