43311 | I'm seeing duplicated images and videos on Gallery | I'm facing a strange situation on my Nexus 4, with Android version 4.2.2. I've being using it for the past 2 months without any issues whatsoever (other than a "regular" battery performance), but since last week I started seeing some duplicated albums with images on the Gallery. So, some images and videos appear twice, both with the same album name, but on a different "physical" folder, one on the folder `/storage/emulated/0/` and the other on `/storage/emulated/legacy/`. I'm absolutely positive that this issue started only last week and the "duplicated" images existed before this issue ever appeared. I haven't installed any custom ROMs, I'm not rooted and haven't installed any apps in the las week (other than Google Translate, but I find it hard to believe that this is related). If this is a duplicated, please feel free to close it and point me to that discussion. If you need any more details, I'll update my question. |

81555 | Bootloader unlocked | Rooted samsung galaxy s4 using odin& CF Auto root. Then flashed CWM using rom manager. Now I can go to CWM recovery mode (using power+volume up+ home) . I can get NAndroid backup. Does this mean that I have unlocked my bootloader? After a lot of googling I think I should use ADB 'fast root in order to unlock bootloader. but since I'm already booting cwm in recovery mode others say I'm alreay unlocked!!! the method I used from http://autoroot.chainfire.eu/ isn't for unlocking its for rooting. please explain Thanks. actually now that I read the instruction in chainfire website don't understand why rooting worked for me he has a warning that using those auto root files on a locked bootloader will brick the phone!!! |
11248 | Suggest a bluetooth handsfree app | Is there any Android app out there for bluetooth handsfree control which requires no internet connection ? I want to make calls, receive calls, sent messages and I want my messages to be read to me. I looked around and I found that all of them use some kind of online webservices.

11244 | Is there any launcher app that behave like Iphone? | I've just switched from Iphone to Android (CM7), and I strongly prefer the Iphone way to manage apps.

16029 | Encryption of offline mail, calendar, contacts data on Android | I'm very new to Android and I wonder what I can do in terms of encryption. As I read it seems that only Android >= 2.3.3 supports encryption but my new device will be running Android 2.3.1. So I think there's no native solution to encrypt offline mail, calendar and contact data. What solutions are there to protect my offline data? Is it possible to encrypt the folders belonging to mail, calendar, contact? Decrypting should always happen when the screen is not lcoked. Any ideas? |

65042 | Search Play Store history for an app? | My droid phone died recently and I got a replacement.

Or is that information lost with the old phone? |
19039 | Where are the downloads from the Browser stored and how to I get to downloads from the browser? | Using a Galaxy Nexus I download an apk and it showed up in the notifications bar when it was done downloading. I went to install but I didn't set option to allow external apps so I did that and I went back to the browser to install the apk and couldn't find it. It wasn't in the notifications anymore and there didn't seem to be a "downloads" option anywhere in the browser. I ended up having to download it again just so it would be in the notifications so I could then get to the apk to install it. And I downloaded it AGAIN to show a friend the issue. Now I'd like to delete all three and know where to go next time. |
16021 | volume rocker as next/previous song | This probably is a common question but so far I have not seen a thorough answer. I want to know if it is possible to have the rocker functionalities that are on cyanogem mod on a factory rom (htc desire s). that is: long press up = next song. long press down = previous song. short press up = volume up short press down = volume down i would like to keep using the htc rom, since i like the sense ui, and also id like to keep using the htc music player, i think is simple and is able to manage correctly the compilations albums. does anyone know of an app that can do this, that is NOT another musicplayer. Or as a 2nd option to explain if it is possible to create my own app for it and maybe to make some points towards the right direction to do this. thanks in advance |

Similar issues anyone and what did you do to fix this.. |

My phone is NOT rooted. {and i intend to keep it that way}. the apps are in mnt/secure/asec any possible solution ????? |
64794 | scalable icons in zooper | This is a complete newbie question. I am new to Android, so pardon me for this naive issue. I can see very nice themes in Themer where they have used icons in widgets. But, in my Zooper, I only have weather and battery icons. I downloaded some iconset from DeviantArt (like this) and put it in Zooper icons folder, but Zooper is unable to access it. Any idea what I am doing wrong?

64790 | WiFi Speed problem on Galaxy Note 3 | I have a WiFi router connected to the internet. The speed from my laptop connected to this router is about 25Mbps downlink. Speed from my PC (connected bypassing the router to the switch, other subnet, same speed) is about 180-190 Mbps on downlink. Speed on my Galaxy Note 3 (it is not rooted, only stock ROM) is about 1-2 Mbps (in best case) in downlink. I have SGS4, that has the same speed as my laptop. I tried to reboot router and a switch, unless I realized that the problem is in my phone. I even tried to disconnect my NAS from the net, so I thought it burns all the speed (despite it showed me that any of the downloading processes are not active). The next step I have taken just now is to boot into a Safe Mode and try the speed test again - no results. Dear community, what the problem may be? This problems lasts since last night. |
56860 | Apps on memory card taking internal memory | I noticed that many apps that are, according to Android, installed on the memory card are actually taking internal memory space, as when I delete their data or uninstall them I notice a change on the phone memory, and no on the SD. Why does this happens? I am moving my apps wrongly?. I run Cyanogen Mod, and some of the apps are ones that should not be moved (according to the app App2SD) or that couldn't be moved (but moved them anyways via other apps). Thanks. |

17376 | In which directory are Android updates downloaded? | I want to download and install a system update for my Android HTC Desire. The download was successful but during installation it stopped. In the ClockworkMod console I can see the error "signature verification failed". I wanted now to try to toggle signature verification in the ClockworkMod menu off and give it another try but unfortunately I cannot find the update file (ClockworkMod menu proposes `/sdcard/update.zip` but this file cannot be found).

52364 | Non-HTTP connections time out | I have a Samsung Galaxy Player 5. Before, I could use everything (Facebook, etc) normally. I'm not sure if I changed anything, but now the browser (Internet) loads everything fine, but Facebook &co. are unable to make a connection (timing out, as far as I understand it) I'm not sure what I could of changed. This happens on numerous networks, so it's not a router-side thing. What should I investigate or check? |

11794 | In general, do Android apps use encrypted connections? If so, is public WiFi safer? | I know that connecting to public WiFi carries risks. I know that much of the risk has to do with sending data over a public connection, allowing it to be intercepted. So, my question is, do most or all Android apps use SSL or some other secure protocol? Is SSL forced via Android policy or technical limitations? Would I only have to worry about websites in my browser that use http? If an app uses a secure connection, does that mean it is significantly safer to use on a public WiFi network? I know that people creating their own WiFi network or spoofing others is still a risk, but is there anything else? |
53527 | Sony Xperia ZR wifi problem: wpa_supplicant: wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-ASSOC-REJECT | I have a strange problem with Wi-Fi with my Sony Xperia. I can't connect to most of the networks I have tried, but the list of networks is ok (but somehow slowly loaded). **It stopped working suddenly after a week**. My previously used networks are all marked as "Saved", but when I try to connect the following happens: 1. Saved (doesn't even change when tapped) 2. Connecting -> Saved 3.

Connect to another network (sometimes works with some networks) 5. Forget network -> Type password again 6. Connect another Android device to the same network 7.

69018 | Minimal .apks for play store | # Introduction I just installed CyanogenMod 10.2 on HTC One X+ and I want to install ONLY the Google Play Store. I know there is Gapps, but I want to have even less apps on my phone than what is in that package. I searched already for a long time on the internet, but couldn't find a clear solution. I hope you can help me :) (I know about F-Droid, also have that on my phone, but I wish to have Play Store too) # What I did so far: * I downloaded Play Store (cm.android.vending-4.6.16.apk) from Android Police: http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/03/13/download-latest-google-play-store-4-6-16-with-new-require-password-option-tweaked-ui-forced-self-update-and-more/ * Got the Gapps zip for CM 10.2: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Google_Apps * From Gapps I took the files "GmsCore.apk", "GoogleLoginService.apk" and "GoogleServicesFramework.apk". * I moved these 3 apks to my phone and relocated these 3 apks to the folder /system/app/ * I installed the Play Store (cm.android.vending-4.6.16.apk) ## Note If you don't put "GmsCore.apk" on your phone, Google Play Store will start, but you will have no connection in the store. # The Problem I can start Play Store and have connection with the store, but the moment I want to install an app or check for updates (settings --> Build version (4.6.16)) it says: "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." How to solve this? |
20847 | Where are the bookmarks in Firefox for Android? | This may be a ridiculously simple question, but where is the bookmarks list in Firefox for Android? I'm looking at the interface on my Galaxy Tab 10.1, and I can't find the bookmarks anywhere. They're not available when clicking on the top right corner. They aren't available anywhere else. The only place I can find them is when I open a new tab, I get an interface which shows my bookmarks as one option, along with "History", "All Pages", and "Desktop". Surely I don't have to open a new tab every time I just want to go to a bookmark? This is one of those things that's so simple it seems they haven't even bothered to mention it in documentation. At least, not that I've seen. |

53093 | How to interrupt Android boot sequence to force it boot to Linux kernel only | I am trying to do some low level performance testing related to device processor cores through adb which I feel it is affected by Android background services and system stuff. As I know that the Android boot sequence stages are as follow: 1. Execute Boot ROM code. 2. Execute the boot loader. 3. Load the Linux kernel. 4. Launch Zygote, which initializes the Dalvik VM. 5. System server which loads the Android system. So my question is how can I interrupt this sequence to force it stop on stage 3 to load Linux kernel. This can help me implement my intermediary performance testings before loading again Android system. Does Fastboot or Clockworkmod recovery can help here and load my device to a kind of Linux kernel? Any hint will be appreciated. Thanks. |

16979 | Freeing up space on SD card | I'm trying to clear some space on my SD card, so I can run AnTuTu Benchmark. Also, having some extra space for music would be great. I'm assuming apps installed to your SD card can eat up free space faster than you'd imagine. As of now, 19 (out of 65 apps) on my SD card which occupy appox. 197 MB total. I currently have 1.74 GB used and 103.47 MB free, would my ROM be occupying a lot of space (i.e. needing 4GB of HD space to install Ubuntu/Linux)? I want to figure out the best way to maximise space on my SD card without haphazardly deleting files. Also, knowing what are key folders would help too. |

I want to change the email address on my Android because it's my main one. If I lose my phone, someone can access my YouTube account which I've worked hard on. They could also access my emails.

17086 | Is it reasonably safe to use PIN code for encryption? | On the Android 4.0 (Samsung Galaxy Nexus) there is a posibilty to encrypt the phone. I found this about the encryption on Android 3.0, is the same algorithms used in Android 4? http://source.android.com/tech/encryption/android_crypto_implementation.html My main question concerns the use of a PIN code to decrypt your phone. **Why am I forced to use the same password to unlock my screen and to decrypt my phone?** This restriction will only allow me to use a password of low complexity (like a PIN number) since it would be to hard to write in i.e. 17 characters to unlock my phone for a simple phone call. Brute force attempts against the screen unlock could be prevented i.e. by a force reboot every 5 tries. So there is not any need for a very strong password there, a PIN might be good enough. This type of protection can not be used on the disc, thus there is a greater need for stronger passwords here. (It doesn't help much that the entropi of passwords have increased since there will be very few users with a complex password, so an attacker could simply try most passwords with low complexity). What is the reasoning behind being forced to use the same password for both features? |

I miss the occasional emails on the road, Waze navigation and A-GPS so I thought to put these 5MB to good use. The problem is that in the Settings => Mobile networkד I have only "data roaming", "Access Point Names" and "Network Operators" on both SIMs. I couldn't make the device use its EDGE capability. Does anyone know how to turn it on? |

Do Android Stock Browser, Firefox Mobile and Opera Mobile also employ the same technique? Current Android Phone is having powerful processing capability.

53542 | HTC Desire Z setting up mail | I have a HTC Desire Z and a old mobileme account. I was young and stupid as I decided to have a mobileme account. Meanwhile I would never do this again! But, if you are using a mail address for a while it is somehow nasty to set up a new account. It is like getting a new phone number. That's the reason why I still use it. My problem occurred some months ago. From one day to the other (I'm using the pre-installed mail app from htc) the mail account wasn't working any more. I was not able to connect to the server. Setting up a new account on the htc with the following specs: Protocol: IMAP Email address: myname@me.com Username: myname Password: my password (it is correct :)) IMAP-server: imap.mail.me.com Security type: SSL Server Port: 993 I also tried different version of the above, e.g. Username: myname@me.com and so on. Nothing worked. I also tried TLS with port 143, same result. I always get the message: Your incoming server does not support SSL. Please modify your incoming serer's security type. Maybe there is someone who has the same problem and was able to solve it. Any hints would be appreciated. |

10535 | Is there a keyboard application for setting an external keyboard to the Colemak layout | There are some soft keyboard applications that provide the Colemak layout for the virtual keyboard. I mostly need the layout when touch-typing on a physical keyboard though. so I'd like an application that lets me remap the keys of a physical keyboard to the Colemak layout, or an app that lets me specify any layout for an external keyboard. In my case, I'm using a regular USB keyboard plugged into an Iconia A500 tablet. The keymap should be freely customizable by modifying system files on a rooted phone, but I'd prefer to be able to do this without rooting the phone. |

20590 | Unable to enable Mobile Network settings (options greyed out). Is there any way to restore lost mobile connectivity data? | I have a HTC Desire HD that up until recently has been running well with a custom ROM. For some reason, the phone started to "misbehave" in a number of ways after about 10 months of painless operation, so I decide to try and put the LeeDroid ROM on the phone. End result, the phone is now not much better than a basic iPod touch. My mobile network settings are all greyed out, and the phone is telling me that it no longer knows what its IMEI, IMEI SV, IMSI, Phone Number, and Base Band details are. Every other feature of the phone seems to be working OK, just not the mobile network connectivity. Yes, it's a very sad little brick indeed, and I now find myself going retro and using my old Sony Ericson Walkman phone which is SO old school that it's not funny! Yes, it looks really pathetic when I go to touch the screen and... well, you get the picture! LOL I am still hopeful that someone out there might know how I can restore the missing information. I have most of what I need documented, but no idea if there is a way to locate and restore the data more directly from the phone, or if there is a tool that will allow me to feed the missing values in (remember, these are meant to be unique identifiers) in order to help me to restore the phone in some way. **No amount of master resetting, or alternative ROM installing has been of any help so far** , and asking this question is really a last gasp attempt to try and de-brick the mobile features of the phone before I find myself either buying an expensive repair at the local authorized repairer, or buying an expensive replacement phone. Serious KUDOS to anyone who might have an answer to this. |
48263 | What version of Clockworkmod should I be using on my Galaxy Tab 2? | I have been trying to install Cyanogenmod on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 (SGH-1497) (AT&T) over the last few days and I keep getting stuck installing CWM Recovery. I have been able to successfully root the device, but I can't seem to find the right recovery version to use. I have tried using: * koush's ClockworkMod Recovery as instructed on the CyanogenMod Wiki * CWM Touch 6.0.1.2 for GT-p5100 * philz_touch_5.03.7-p5100.tar.md5 * ROM Manager installed via Google Play After attempting to install, I either can't boot into recovery mode at all (the screen goes blank after I see the blue "booting into recovery" text on the Samsung screen) or I just end up at the stock recovery screen. I have tried installing using both Linux Mint (following the CyanogenMod Wiki instructions) and Windows using Odin. I have read several different guides on installing CWM and Cyanogenmod on my device, but they all seem to have different information and I am having a hard time figuring out which ROMs I should actually be using. I would really appreciate some guidance on this. |

44563 | My Samsung S3 I747 is always Roaming | I am having a large issue with my S3. I bought a brand new S3 from a trusted friend, he explained to me that it was with Bell originally, (original carrier). So when he sold it to me he also said he unlocked it. When I got home I activated the Sim card with my Carrier wich is Videotron. I started receiving text messages but there was something strange, I was roaming data. Now this is where it gets weird, first off I had a double clock wich said roaming on one side and home on the other. Also on the top it said Rogers wireless. So I Disable data roaming. But it still seemed to be carrying the signal. When I went in mobile networks and searched for my carrier, all that showed up was Bell, Telus and Rogers. NO videotron? I called tech support and they have no idea what the problem is, because it's not there signal coverage. So it's pretty easy for me to know the problem is within my unlocked phone -- but I seem to have hit a wall. I really need help and I don't know what to do. Maybe my friend didnt unlock it correctly? If anyone heard of this issue before or has anyways to help me please share. |

In 20% of the cases, it just turns the backlight of both the screen and the buttons on, but doesn't "turn on" the image on the screen, so it stays black.

68654 | Data over mobile network switching on behind my back - what could be doing it and how to stop? | Alcatel OneTouch 983, Android 2.3.7 I normally have "Enable data access over mobile network" switched off so as not to drain my phone credit, only switching it on when I want to do something quick on the Internet and don't have wi-fi access where I am. However, a few days ago, for no apparent reason at all, this setting began switching on at intervals without me doing anything. Tried switching my phone off and on, tried killing most of my running services, has made no difference. Generally, a few times a day I find that it has switched on. Have installed AVG Antivirus Pro and it found nothing. Any clue of what it could be that's doing it - and more importantly, how to get rid of whatever it is? I hate to imagine how much of my phone credit it has drained! |

It would be much easier if possible to jump directly to the page I want (I know which page I want to see because there is a "Table of Contents" in the document - such a fresh and wonderful invention).
