texts: How can I graph or chart date related values ( each date having one value )

texts:
NEW QUESTION

I wish to enter dates with corresponding values, and have these values charted in a line or block graph. If the chart and values could be exported, that would be nice.

UPDATE

Since the original title containing the words graph and commodities did not seem to produce any results, I have now changed the question to a more general question. Original question was: I am looking for a way to edit and graph my own commodities off line ?

USE ( to clarify the question )

I could use this to create a graph from manually entered stock exchange values, but also to follow up my weight, or hart beat values, or whatever chart whose values change daily.
I know that you can use a spreadsheet to do this, but I am looking for a more specialised program.
I am running Froyo 2.2.1 on a Samsung Galaxy S and Archos 101 pad ( if this should make a difference ).

UPDATE AFTER INITIAL COMMENTS

Left the original question here, so that any read could understand the initial comments.

I am looking for a stocks program where I can add and edit my own daily/weekly stock figures.
I want some graph too.
I don't want nor seek a program which offers real time or on line updated stock quotes.
I have looked in the marked, but there are tens or hundreds of stocks programs, and I really don't want to try them all ( especially because most if not all of them emphasise how easy it is to have real time updated values ).

Is it possible to disable logging to the logcat for an application (APK) in  Android entirely.

Since i make heavy use of my logcat output, I'd like to see only bits that are relevant to me but there are a lot of apps that write to the logcat, it is quite cluttered.

I would simply filter the output but it seems that the logcat entries only have the PID for deciding what the application is and the PID is something that changes everytime a process is restarted.

texts: In spite of sync is disabled, sync icon is shown in notification bar forever!

texts:
I am talking about Samsung Galaxy Ace Duos2 (GT-S6802). The undesirable thing is that Sync icon is always shown in notification bar. I checked Accounts and sync settings many times to make sure Auto sync is disable.

In above screen-shot you can see that Auto sync is not enabled. However, Sync icon/symbol is shown at notification area.

I also tried after enabling and re-disabling Auto sync options, restarting many times but sync icon at notification bar po-pups sometimes (1 min) after booting and remains forever.

So, Why this is happening and How do I get rid of it? (Is there any thing I'm missing?)

texts:
I recently bought an eLocity A7 Internet Tablet. I'm unable to download any apps from the Android Market, even though I have a Google account. I keep getting the reason, “There are no android phones associated with this account.”

One fix I've heard of is to get a gmail account and hook up your Android phone number to it, then it will be associated with the account. But the eLocity tablet is not a phone.

Another fix has to do with installing the Android Market apk file, which brings a user to the Android Market. Signing in will associate the device with the account. But I haven't found a reputable link from which to download the app.

Any other ideas?

texts: Data Recovery on non-rooted Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v

texts:
a friend has deleted some photos from her Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v (GT-P7100) using the Gallery app. While the app's automatic backups were activated, she had never used the Google+ app before, so my understanding is nothing was saved in her Google account.

I tried to use a data recovery utility, namely PhotoRec, but from what I have gathered it is unable to see the device's internal memory (no SD card in the GT-P7100) as a disk, as the Galaxy Tab 10.1v does not connect as USB Mass Storage but uses the MTP Protocol. So, no luck using such a tool directly.

I found a guide on XDA-Developers that deals with this problem: here. It extracts a full disk image from the device, which could then be analyzed. However, the guide requires your device to be rooted (it is not atm), and rooting on this particular device requires the bootloader to be unlocked: galaxy tab 10.1v rooting. Bootloader unlocking requires internal memory wipe, and I'm worried that this operation could undermine the data recovery.

My questions are:

Does anyone have any experience using data recovery tools with a MTP-only device? How would you go about it?
Will wiping the Galaxy Tab's internal memory undermine the recovery operation? My guess is yes, and I'd rather not root the device at all if my chances to recover anything are grim.

Thanks everyone!

texts: Nexus 7 “wipe cache partition” option not available in Recovery Mode

texts:
My Nexus 7 is EXTREMELY slow. So I am attempting to clear its cache by following these instructions:

Wipe Your Cache
To speed things up, you may want to try wiping your cache partition
from Android’s recovery menu.
First, shut your Nexus 7 off. Press and hold the Volume Up + Volume
Down + Power buttons to power the device on — it will boot into the
below screen.
Use the Volume Up and Volume Down keys to select the Recovery mode
option, and then press the Power button to activate recovery mode.
Select the wipe cache partition option with the volume keys and tap
Power. This will clear all your cached app data, which may help speed
things up.

When I boot into Recovery mode, the "wipe cache partition" option does not appear. Is there anything else I can do, short of a factory reset?
(To complicate matters, the google account to which this Nexus 7 was linked was deleted over a year ago and Google will not allow me to use that account name again to recreate it. I created a new google account but the Nexus 7 keeps going to the old one and hanging because it cannot connect to it, and the Nexus 7 does not let me create a new user account because it is stuck on trying to connect to the old one.)

On my Nexus 4 (Lollpop), the nav keys no longer respond when it is in portrait mode, and the q key no longer responds when it is in landscape mode. Here is the bug report. This has been discussed at the Google Group, and Grigoriy Kraynov has brilliantly put together an unofficial fix, but it requires rooting the Android. (Correction: Maybe not rooting it, but definitely some dangerous digging around in the OS's innards.)

There are also occasionally ghost presses. (I configured my phone to show a white dot when there is a press, and sometimes there are a lot of them all together, usually in this malfunctioning area, without my pressing the screen.)

It's been called a hardware bug in the digitizer, but it looks to me like it's in the software layer -- why would one particular rectangle stop working?

Can anyone suggest a simpler way to fix this? It's hard to believe that Google would allow such a significant bug to go unfixed.

My workaround is to install the Button Savior Non Root app and an autorotator app (to enable 4-way rotate in every app). This workaround is more or less OK.

But I want to do many things like:

Turn off data when temperature is above 40.
Turn on it when battery temperature drops to 30, only if it was turned off due to temperature (other wise do nothing ) and the data plan is not expired.

Question

I would like to achieve aforementioned tasks using Automate (Tasker like app supports tasker plugins).

Is there any app that monitors battery temperature and runs an app shortcut (and thus a Tasker/Automate task)? (What about launching an app, creating a file?)

In other words, I need an alternative for Tasker plugin(paid) Battery Temperature Detection.

Note:

My phone doesn't support CPU temperature, and neither Tasker nor Automate supports battery temperature.

texts: Manually (Re-)Encrypting a Whatsapp Backup File

texts:
Problem

So, after rooting using a custom ROM and rooting my phone somehow WhatsApp wont let me back up my chat history anymore, see below. The problem now is that I want to transfer my chat history from my old phone to a new one.

.

Alternative Plan

From what I've gathered WhatsApp Backup files are crypt12 encrypted msgstore.db files that are located at the root directory /data/data/com.whatsapp

Things I have:

Old Backup from a few months ago
my current unencrypted msgstore.db through root access
crypt12 key file through root access

My plan now is to basically create a new backup by encrypting my current msgstore.db and transfering that to the new phone, hopefully recovering my chats. The only thing I need is a way to reencrypt the file to be the same as a WhatsApp Backup File. Or just modifying my existing, old backup with the new content. Is this possible?

texts: How to change android primary google account

texts:
During the "in-app purchase" I am unable to switch the Google account I would like to use for "in-app purchase". Currently, in order to change the primary Google account on Android operating system, we have the following ways:

Remove other Google accounts, leave only one Google account.
Perform factory reset on our devices.

If we perform factory reset, we will lose all data that we have not backed up or unable to do backup. And, we have to re-install the applications that we need to use.

If we choose to remove other Google accounts from our systems and leave only one Google account, if there are applications installed from Google Play Store by using the Google account that we want to remove from our systems, then we will not be able to remove the account from the system unless we remove those applications. However, sometimes we may forget which account we used to install an application from Google Play Store.

My question is that is there any other way to switch between the accounts?

Same Vodafone sim is working perfectly when I go to office (just 3 KM away from home). I tried to swap SIM-1 & 2. My BSNL SIM works normal either in SIM-1 or SIM-2 slots.

Put Vodafone SIM in SIM 1 - Same problem.
Tried some other Vodafone SIM - Same problem.
Put the Vodafone SIM in another mobile - Works perfectly.
Calling to that Vodafone number while in home - Message says "Seems you dialed a wrong number".
Changed the Vodafone SIM for same number - No luck, it wont work in home.
Experimented with lot of setting changes - No luck. It works, without any settings changes it works normally in my office.
Called Vodafone call center - No use, they never heard such problem .

The procedure for porting a SIM card from a pay-as-you-go phone to an iPhone 4 is well documented (example 1, example 2, config tool for iOS 5). This is a nice option for people mostly on WiFi who use a small number of minutes (or VoIP), because with AT&T GoPhone plans, you can keep network costs down toward $100/year.

Is there a similar procedure for porting to a high-end Android phone? For example, can you buy a $3 GoPhone from Best Buy, buy an unlocked or AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II off eBay, move the SIM card into the Galaxy, and expect it to work? Other than ensuring the GoPhone plan has a data bundle feature, what other configuration is required?

texts: I cannot use a USB cable to access my version 2.3.6 phone's SD card with Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

texts:
I have a problem. Googling shows that other people have similar problems, but unfortunately the solutions that worked for them didn't work so me, so I'm going to have to ask myself.

I have a (rooted) Samsung GT-S5830i ("Samsung Galaxy Ace") running Android 2.3.6, and when I plug it into my Ubuntu 12.04 desktop using the usual kind of usb-to-micro_usb lead...nothing seems to happen.

The command (on the Ubuntu machine)

$ lsusb

gives the same output whether or not the phone is plugged in. In particular the phone does not seem to be being seen by the computer at all.

Similarly the phone does not give me the usual "you've just been plugged into a computer" symbol in the toolbar at the top, and in particular I am not being asked by the phone at all whether I'd like to connect via USB -- the phone offers me no new dialogues or options after being connected; it just sits there charging [in particular it's not the case that e.g. the wire is completely broken, or the port is completely dead; I've tried more than one port on the computer anyway].

I have tried more than one USB connector wire. I have tried more than one USB port on the computer. I don't know where to start debugging this issue.

I can access the files on the phone using various other methods, for example via Dropbox, Software Data Cable, bluetooth etc. The issue is simply that this particular method doesn't work and I don't know why. [Note added later on: I suspect this assertion is actually false -- I think that what I should have said was "yesterday I could access the files on the phone using various other methods; today I couldn't access them on my ubuntu machine, but it hadn't occurred to me that in fact I couldn't access them on any machine at all via any method."]

I use Viber on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 phone. 4 days ago i bought Lenovo tablet M8 and installed Viber app there. I was asked for authentication from my phone and so i did. When i switched off my tablet and opened Viber on my phone, i was asked to register, authenticate etc. on my phone. I did all that again but I lost some messages because the saved log, was from some hours ago. When i tried to open Viber again on my tablet, i faced again the same problems, register, authenticate, get codes via sms etc.
I changed the dpi on my tablet to 220dpi, in order to be recognized, as a secondary device as a user from here who faced the same problem with a Samsung tablet did,  but it didn't work for me.
After entering and verifying my phone number on the tablet, i don't get the message to scan a QR Code, but i am automatically logged in and just get an email to confirm my e-mail.
I've contacted viber support and waiting for an answer.
I would also like to inform you, that i used to use Viber app on my previous phone, Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 pro, my previous Lenovo tablet and on my desktop Windows PC, without any of these problems for years.
P.S.: My tablet is WiFi only.


texts: I want to block spam calls. The first six digits are the same but the last four keep changing. The first six digits are legitimate?

texts:
I get numerous calls that begin with 289 600 followed by the last 4 digits that keep changing.
So, I can not block using the first six digits. Will it be possible then to block these spam calls which are supposedly coming from US Border control and strangely enough the same call also refers to Service Canada?
I live in Ontario Canada and my cell # begins with 289 600.
Thanks


texts:
I've had three phones in the Samsung Galaxy Note line, a Note 3, a Note 5, and now for a few years I've been using a Note 8. I have enjoyed a keyboard on which I can draw a shape which has a vertex at each letter of the word I want to write, but I'm also perceiving that they're trying to make it smarter, to give it better capabilities faster than they can develop the algorithms that carry out the tasks.
(Some problems I can identify with the Note 8 keyboard is that it is autonomously adopting typos as new words in its dictionary, coming up with new words to suggest or interpret what I draw as, and also sometimes, when I write "something" putting down "s something", repeating the first letter.)
I would really enjoy it if I could upgrade from the native keyboard of my Note 8 to the keyboard which came with one of my earlier phones. Either would be good, though I think the first, that from the Note 3, would be best.


texts: Customise home screen on Hisense Vision TV

texts:
Just purchased a Hisense Vision TV which is powered by Android.

I have just installed the Plex app and want to put the icon on the home screen.

Does anyone know how to customise this screen??

Some of the things I've tried:

Clicking the option key on the remote - just brings up three themes to choose from
Clicking setting button on remote - bring up the normal settings menu
Settings -> Local -> Apps - displays app info
Drag and drop using the air remote feature - doesn't do anything
Searching google - brings up many reviews, some videos, but no actual hits.

Someone please help me get my lock screen wallpaper back

What is the best way to send a video that is over the MMS allowed size to an iPhone user?  I really don't see any good way to do it besides uploading to some sort of 3rd party (youtube, gdrive, etc..) and then sharing it to them?  Even using non-mms with hangouts doesn't seem to allow me to send video that I have previously taken.

Any suggestions would be wonderful.


texts: Clock off by 4 min even if "use network value" is on (probably due to an app)

texts:
Few days ago i noticed that the clock on my phone was 4 min earlier than "real" time. I thus moved to "parameters > date & time" to check that automatic was "on" and indeed it was "on". I then unchecked/rechecked the box and every get back to "real" time ... but only for a few seconds ...  indeed just a few seconds later the clock suddenly shifted 4 min earlier!

I tried many things before finally discovering that if I turn off "data" connection, the clock remains at correct "real" time. So it is probably an application that for unknown reason is synchronizing to some server and then modifies the clock.

I have a HTC desire - Android 2.2.2 and I have installed no particular application that can make me suspicious to create such time shift (nor i tried to root my phone to any custom ROM).

Any idea for which application could do this or anyone else having same issue ?

I've been trying to free up space on my Pixel 2XL, and the Storage menu in Settings says I have 34 GB of audio files stored, but when I go in to the files to try to erase things, I only have two audio files taking up a total of ~2.1 MB. I don't even know where to find what else might be taking up the space, there's nothing else there... Any ideas?

texts: Disable notifications for random news stories

texts:
Many times per day, my phone shows me notifications like the one below. It's a random news story (which admittedly is on a topic I am interested in), but I have never wanted to get a notification about a news story, ever.

I hate it displaying a new news story every 10 minutes, but I'm fine with it giving a notification for things like the weather, my commute, etc., so I'd rather not disable all Google notifications. I'm also fine with it listing these news stories in the leftmost page of the home screen, I just don't need a notification about them. (I'm also fine with losing the news stories from the leftmost page, if that's the only way to get rid of the notifications.)

I have tried this already: From the leftmost page of the home screen, click the user account icon in the upper-right, select 'Settings', select 'Notifications'. I disabled several categories, including 'Topics of interest', 'Business listings', and 'Stocks'. There is no 'news' category or similar.

I do see the option to remove a particular news source (e.g., 'InsideEVs' in the screenshot below), but that's not a solution; I want all of them gone at once, not whack-a-mole.

My phone is a Pixel 3 XL, running Android 9.

Here's an example of a notification I want to get rid of.


texts: Cannot boot into homescreen after installed Android PIE

texts:
My phone model is Asus Zenfone Max Z010D. My power button and volume up button are not working. Is there anyway to boot to the homescreen?

Since I have installed Android pie (AEX custom rom), they have this EDL issue (cannot reboot to device/recovery). I accidently rebooted the device, and it went to EDL. Then I rebooted it by holding the volume down key with the phone connected to computer by usb, but it then went off automatically. Now it is only showing the offline charging, while connected to charger.

How to resolve this?

texts: How can I get back access to the media interface drivers?

texts:
After much waiting and tribulation, I've finally successfully unlocked tethering and installed Paranoid Android on my Nexus 7 3G device.

In the progress, I had to tell Windows to ignore its default MTP drivers and use Google's debugging own to interface with Android, fastboot and the like. As a result, I now can't go back to accessing the device using MTP from inside Windows itself.

I tried uninstalling all the relevant drivers from Device Management, but now Windows prefers Android ADB Interface to whatever I was using before. I've tried to force the setup of MTP drivers from Device Management, Add legacy hardware, Install the hardware that I manually select from a list, Portable Devices, (Standard MTP Device), MTP USB device. This didn't work ("This device cannot start. (Code 10)").

How can I get file transfer back?

texts: I flashed recoveries with Odin, why doesn't my phone boot bow?

texts:
Samsung S3 Android phone, not rooted, stock firmware.

In chronological order:
I turned on USB debugging, although could not use fastboot.
I used Odin to flash multiple recoveries, but I don't think I was successful, I believe the phone must have been rooted first. I downloaded some recoveries as .tar.md5 but I also downloaded .img and I tried to turn it into a .gz
- at that stage my phone still did boot Android, but normal recovery stopped working (Volume Up + Home + Power)
- Then I went to settings and chose Factory reset. Now all I've got is Odin mode.
It reads:
Custom binary: Custom
System Status: Custom

Did I soft brick my phone ?

I din't loose data but I'd like to know in what state my phone is.
Although I didnt intend to have an Android phone, now that I have one I will also try to mess up and change the bootloader if possible.
Thank you for taking the time and answer.

texts: Why did my tablet stop switching to widescreen when connected to my TV through HDMI?

texts:
I have a tablet PC running Android v4.0.3. Up until recently, when I connected it to my TV it automatically switched to widescreen (16:10) format.

Something has changed, and now it always displays as the old narrow screen format. There doesn't appear to be a setting for this on the tablet.

It's a NATPC M0009 in case that makes a difference.

Has anyone had a similar issue, or can anyone point me towards a solution?


texts: Migrate Between Different Phones with Apps & Data on MicroSDHC

texts:
Attempting my first migration between two phones with different Android versions has got me very confused.

All my apps and data are currently working and complete on an Android 4.4 phone. Internal storage has the core system plus Google apps while all remaining is on a MicroSDHC card. This includes everything that must be transferred intact to a new phone.

Just got a new phone with Android 7.0 in a factory-clean state. There is nothing of value yet on this phone, so it is OK if the process resets and otherwise destroys anything on it. What I am so far not able to do is get the apps and data of the old phone onto the new one.

When installing the phone with the Copy from Other Android Device option, my contacts, calendar and Hangouts get copied but pretty much nothing else. Even if I install an app which existing on the old phone into the new one, it appears blank despite having selected to Save and Restore App Data in the Backup & Reset settings of both phones.

One would have expected to be able to just insert the MicroSDHC card from the old phone, which contains all apps and data that matters, into the new one but it just does not work. The new phone offers the option to Format or Format as Internal Storage the card or to use it for photos (not sure of the exact wording right now). Of course, any type of formatting would obliterate the data which is desired but then how do I get the new phone to use the card with its current apps and data?

Is there a way I can convert rather than format the card? The point of having an SDHC card and to place all apps and data on it was, after all, to be able to port this but I have no idea how to get it to work between these two versions of Android.

How can I ensure that apps and data from an Android 4.4 phone get migrated to a 7.0 one?

texts: No cell service in Moto E after restoring Stock ROM backup from CWM.

texts:
My Moto E wouldn't boot for some reason, so I rooted it and installed:

CWM,
installed a stock ROM for my specific device model,
backed it up and then installed CM12.

Too buggy so I went back to backed up ROM.
Issue:
Ever since I installed that stock ROM (downloaded from the Internet), however, I have had no cell service at all. No text messages, not anything.
Also, my IMEI is the same as the IMEI printed on my phone, and I tried renaming apnf_conf.xml to .bak (or something like that) via instructions on XDA. It shows no cell bars in my status bar, and when it boots it's in Airplane Mode (but Wifi and BT are on). When I turn off Airplane Mode, it makes no difference to anything and I can't turn it back on.
So if I could get some help with this that would be great because I really don't want to pay for service I'm not getting.

texts: Android email setup of Mail app results in a "Force Close"

texts:
On the Motorola Droid I was successfully getting my corporate email for a year with no problems. On 11/09/2010 I started getting a security error when trying to retrieve email in the native Android Mail app. I tried tweaking a couple settings but ended up deleting my account credentials in order to re-enter them in an effort to bypass the security error. I know get an error every time I enter my account credentials and attempt to connect to our corporate exchange server.

I go through the following steps:

Open the mail app
Enter email address and password
Press Manual setup
Press Exchange
Modify Domain\Username and Server to contain correct corporate information
Insure "User secure connection (SSL)" and "Accept all SSL certificates" are checked
Press Next
App says "Checking incoming server settings"
Message pops up "Sorry! The application Email (process com.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."

No combination of rebooting, clearing Mail app data and changing of SSL selections allows me to bypass this error.

UPDATE
According to Motorola Level 2 technical phone support the only solution to this issue is to restore the phone to it's factory settings.

My init.rc has something along the lines:

service update /system/bin/update.sh
    class core
    critical

My update script is:

netcat -luvv -p 5555 2>&1 | while read cmd params; do
case $cmd in
   #do stuff
esac
done

So in this, my service does get started, and netcat begins. Only issue is it's not recieving any messages I'm trying to send out. Also, if I try to send out any messages manually through netcat, like echo hello | netcat -u localhost 5555, it's not sending out any bytes.

texts:
Google has decided to push hangouts for enterprise, or something, and now there's a big obnoxious message that takes up half the Hangouts app whenever I open it into the "conversations" view.

I use a google voice number for all my calls and texting in the US (calls to my google voice number are forwarded to whatever local carrier number I have at the time, texts are done over Data but appear to be from my google voice number to whoever gets a message from me). I wish to maintain this paradigm.

In compliance with Google's indecisiveness, I tried switching over to the Android "Google Voice" app, but none of my 2+ years of conversation history on Hangouts is available there. So, I would like to, as seamlessly as possible, continue to text using my Google Voice number using whatever app Google has decided I should be using now.

Which app should I use for texting now, and how can I port my Hangouts conversation history to that app? Bonus points if I can use that app on desktop (via browser or otherwise) to text from my Google Voice number (as I could with Hangouts).

I have a UK Motorola Xoom, Wifi only version. It's currently running 3.0.1 and is rooted.

I'd really like to upgrade to 3.2 and stay rooted. What's the best path to take with this?

I can't download the official "over the air" update, because that clashes with the rooting process I have performed (I assume) as that bricks the device. I have been using it for a while and have many settings and apps in place. I assume there is no way I can do an in place upgrade and keep everything as it is?

I assume I will have to use something like Titanium Backup, then find a pre-rooted 3.2 image and flash that on, then restore my apps and settings? Can anyone confirm if this is correct or not?

Finally, if that is true, can anyone point me to such an image for my model tab?

texts: Applications restore or install from external sd card

texts:
I have Samsung Galaxy Duos Trans-S 7562. It had an problem with Wifi, so I sent the phone in for repairs. Before handing the phone over to store, I backed up the applications on the external Sd card.

Now applications can not be restored or installed. Only contacts are backed-up. The error message I get is Applications not downloaded from Google Play store can not be installed.

I used "Super backup-Contact And SMS" application for backing everything up.

I have had my phone for a while and I am always feeling guilty because I haven't replied to text message that I never knew that I got when I have my phone on vibrate. It only vibrates when I pick it up or move it, it's not like my old phone like when you get a message it vibrated automatically but my samsung galaxy s3 doesn't.

Is there anyway that I could have it like that so it doesn't only vibrate when I move it?

texts: Why do LTE Network Interfaces Change Names?

texts:
You may have seen my earlier question here detailing my struggles with multiplexing LTE and WiFi on a rooted Android device. Much of this stems from an issue I seem to run into with the LTE network interfaces used by my device (Google Pixel 4a), namely v4-rmnet_data{$X} where $X is some number from 0-9. When I do an ip link show, I can see many LTE interfaces formatted rmnet_data{$X} but only one formatted like v4-rmnet_data{$X}. I'm assuming this v4 interface is an IPv4 link generated from one of these IPv6 links. Occasionally, I will see that the $X used by the v4 link has changed inexplicably. I can't seem to find a good explanation as to why this happens. One second, the active link is v4-rmnet_data0, the next it is v4-rmnet_data2 and the v4-rmnet_data0 link has ceased to exist. Does anyone know what causes this to occur? Is there anything I can do to prevent it from happening? Since I am manually changing routing tables, disruptions like these cause disaster.
Thanks for your help!


texts: Free Wi-Fi network: how to autoaccept (robotic click) wifi policy web page?

texts:
Possible Duplicate:
  Can I automatically log in to open WiFi that requires web login/password?

At a hospital, there is a no-password Wi-Fi network which is for guest and prior having internet, I have to click "Accept" button on an initial web page I get in a browser. The page is super simple, single frame with single button at the bottom called accept.

There is an app in the play store which can open browser so that I can click the accept button.(app name: Auto Wi-Fi Prompt)
Well, is there a way to write such script which will make even the "accept" click for me? (e.g., llama advanced config and a ".bat" file after that)

for example, once I activate Wi-Fi, it detects being connected to hospital-guest and will auto-click accept for me.

texts: How can I mount or extract TWRP Nandroid backups in Windows?

texts:
Every so often, I need to extract files from a backup. I'm aware Titanium Backup can do this, and there are no doubt other apps capable of the same, but I want to do it on my PC where the backups actually reside.

Files with the .ext4.win extension are simple enough -- just open in WinRAR or similar -- but .emmc.win files are another story. Are there any tools to extract, or, ideally, mount .emmc.win files in Windows?


texts: Which, if any, of the major console game developers also develop for Android?

texts:
The Android market has a lot of apps now, and for the most part almost anything that could only be done on the iPhone a couple of years ago is now possible on Android. The app stores have become quite competitive and comparable.

However, one thing that appears to be missing from the Android Market are major console game developers. iOS, for example, has many titles by publishers such as Electronic Arts, SEGA, and Square Enix. Some of these are ports of console games (like Sonic the Hedgehog), and some of them are made-for-mobile games (like Square Enix's Chaos Rings). I don't see anything from those publishers in the Android Market.

So, my question is are there, in fact, any major console-game developers/publishers currently selling games in the official Android Market? If not, is there any reason to believe this might change?

Note that my question is about Google's Android Marketplace and does not include any 3rd party markets. I'm aware that Electronic Arts is selling apps in Amazon's store.


texts: Create customized zip including system.img, boot.img etc for Android customized ROM

texts:
I downloaded AOSP source code and built it as instructed in its official site.
Now I have 4 img files as system, boot, recovery, userdata. I want to create a zip file which should include these files and can be installed via a recovery manager like 'Clockwork mode recovery'.

For an example we can install CyanogenMod customized rom zip by using clockwork recovery while in boot up process of device. Like wise I need to create a zip including my own imgs.
How should the folder structure of the zipped file system should be created, what script files should be included and how that scripts should be written etc.

texts: How to save map cache of my city on SD card for use with Google Maps, possibly with no expiry?

texts:
I don't have enough rep. to comment under other's post, so I had to open this thread. I read some threads on Google Maps here and the question still persists.

Is there a straightforward method to cache my city's map strictly onto the SD card (as I am running out of internal space), possibly in a way that this cache doesn't get deleted in 30 days? On the other hand it would be cool if it auto-updated itself with the latest map updates, points of interests from Google, strictly when on Wi-Fi.

I already heard of Google's native solution, and of Brut Mod -- but don't know if any of the two would come close to my goal. How can I achieve it?

Edit. Added link for Brut Mod. Sorry, don't have the link any more for that other question.

texts: Charging animation not shown after flashing original ROM

texts:
I've been playing a lot with my Samsung SM-T210 lately (Galaxy Tab 3 7" Wifi) replacing its stock recovery with TWRP, rooting it using SuperSU 2.37 and changing some files of the system partition.

Later, I tried modifying the /system/bin/playlpm file (called just lpm in other devices) to make the device boot just as soon as power is supplied. After trying many times I realized that it wasn't working so I went back to flash the stock ROM of the device.

Finally, I did a factory reset using the recovery flashed with Samsung stock ROM. After connecting the charger, I found out that the /system/bin/playlpm file was not been executed at all, since no animation was being played when the charger was plugged, only the initial image of the battery with a static image on top of it.

The animation should be something like this:

The initial image seen is something like this:

After flashing the Samsung stock ROM the device should be as good as new and the standard stock animation should be played when connected to the charger.

Anyone knows why this is happening and how to solve the issue?

texts:

Is there a way to change this "hi galaxy" phrase to something less likely to be confused?
Can I personalize it?

Something like "ok Samsung, wake up now!" or "ok note 3, wake up now" etc...
the longer the phrase, the less likelyhood for an unintentional match, I assume.

Also, being able to personalize this phrase will prevent other people's getting your way... Imagine, the guy in the bus says "Hi galaxy" to his phone and all the galaxy devices in the bus within reach wakes up. LOL!


texts: Google Drive to Instagram File Location?

texts:
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 with Android 7.0 that had about 29GB of 32GB memory full. I then tried to post a large video file (3+GB) from Google Drive over to my Instagram, but it got stuck on Instagram's "loading" screen for quite a while. I thought maybe the system was hanging, so I backed out and closed all my phone apps. Since then, my phone's file storage went to 100% full, and I can't find that video file anywhere on my system to delete it.

Is there a way to find where that file is to delete it? It's not showing in My Files, it's not showing as a hidden file, and it's not showing under any file management apps that I've tried on Google Play. I know that this is the file that's causing the error, but I can't find it to delete it. If you have any recommendations, let me know.

Thanks!


texts: Phone always goes to TWRP recovery when powered on

I just recently installed/flashed TWRP Recovery on my rooted Samsung Galaxy S6 running Android 5.1.1 with no custom rom.

TWRP Recovery runs fine I assume (haven't tried any features), although whenever I now boot up my phone it goes straight to TWRP recovery. I definitely do not want this, help?

How I installed TWRP Recovery:

Downloaded and installed Flashify from Play Store
Opened Flashify and selected Install Recovery (or similar) and selected TWRP
Downloaded ..forgot.. It ended with .img
Pressed "Yup!" To flashing it
Pressed "Reboot Now"

texts: Unable to access internal SD card in Redmi 6 pro

texts:
I am not able to access the internal SD card of my Redmi 6 Pro mobile which runs MIUI version 11.0.5.0 and Android Version 9 PKQ1.180917.001. In settings it is showing storage 64 GB. However when I try to access the files, it is saying that /sdcard is not mounted. The "df -h" command in a terminal emulator shows that "/dev/block/dm-2" is mounted on "/data". But I am unable to access it. My applications are running smoothly except that it is unable to support any storage requirement and not able to retrieve the data already stored in the internal storage. Please note that my issue is with the internal memory and NOT the external memory card. In fact, I am also not able to access any external SD card, if provided.

Edit:  As per the suggestion by @beeshyams, I installed "Storage Isolation" app from the given link and it gave the following warning. "Incompatible storage structure detected. The storage directory of current user is /sdcard instead of /storage/emulated/0........". It seems that if I mount the sdcard to the correct location, the problem may be solved. But how to do it?

One possible solution is to download the video and play it in a native player, but this solution is too complex (for my elderly father, who wants to listen to videos with slower speed to increase comprehension) and often demands too much space on the device.

Any ideas?

texts: WhatsApp restore stops halfway through importing chat messages

texts:
I have a problem with restoring a WhatsApp backup made to transfer the messages from one phone to another.
First, I followed the advice I gave here myself after I ran into WhatsApp backup/restore issues with a local backup last year. WhatsApp finds the local backup and prompts to restore it, but after I confirm that, it stops at 44% while restoring messages, stays there for a few seconds, then displays an error message and suggests importing an older backup. If I confirm that, it displays a "progress animation", but hangs indefinitely (I waited ~15 minutes). I checked the copied files and they are identical to those on the old phone, so I can rule out data corruption while copying the files.
Then I tried creating a fresh backup on Google Drive and restoring it on the new phone, but ran into the same issue - so the only logical conclusion would be that something in the WhatsApp data causes the restore to fail?!
I would be grateful for any pointers that could help solve this issue! One thing left to try would be to only create a backup of the messages, without media files, but I'm not really confident that would help, as it already fails while restoring the messages...

texts: Google Play Services taking more and more storage

texts:
I'm using HTC Desire A8181 with Android version 2.2.2. I'm currently running out of free internal space.

I also soft-restarted the phone, the problem persists.

I am using my oneplus one phone - I originally bought it on cyanogenmod 11 but instantly upgraded to cyanogenmod 12
I notices that the issues was happening (the issue is specifically that when playing any app sounds - literally any thing apart from touch sounds - then the sound plays out of the speakers for a few seconds then makes a staticy sound and clicks then goes off. After this even touch sounds turn off - eventually they come back on, after locking the screen or rebooting - but as soon as you play any other sound the bug happens again) and when I noticed it was happening I tried turning off profiles, changing interruption settings so it never happens, adjusting volume levels, clearing app cache, system restore then flashed a new ROM onto it (oxygenOS) and that worked for a little bit but now the bug is back and I have tried all the other fixes I tried before - even booting to TWRP recovery and wiping cache and dalvik.
I have rooted my phone so I could get TWRP.

Can anyone help? Any suggestions? Anyone experienced anything similar?

EDIT: it could be volume related - it seems to be alright as long as the volume is under just over half way, kind of, my alarm increases volume gradually (reaching max in 15 seconds) and I changed it so it reached max in 30 seconds and the sound lasted longer before glitching and cutting out. As well as opening a youtube video at low media volume and gradually increasing volume until it got high enough to glitch out again.

Any suggestions are welcome as I'm not absolutely sure it's anything to do with volume.

I am relatively sure it's software as it does work now and again (but then goes again!)

texts: Use mobile internet though connected to WLAN

texts:
On  an Linux based system I created a WLAN Hotspot. I want to provide a single webpage via a webserver on this system. When I connect my Android devices to it they expect to get internet over this connection. But since the Linux host is offline the Android devices are able to see only the webpage and can't reach the internet any longer. I don't want the connected Smartphones to lose their normal connectivity.

Is it technically possible (for example by using any special WLAN settings or Hotspot configuration) to tell Android devices anyhow to use the WLAN connection only for accessing the single hosted webpage and to use their own mobile Internet (cell net) for any other internet access?

This question implies the question if it is possible to use mobile internet via cell network while beeing  connected to a WLAN network on Android devices.

The Linux system currently is a Ubuntu Desktop machine and will be a Raspbian (Debian) on a Pi later on.

When I startup the phone I get an emergency calls only page and I can't get past it.

I have had a look at this very related question:

Can I use a Motorola Atrix without a SIM card?

but I seem to have a different experience than the suggested solution says I should.

When I try to boot with the volume down button pressed down and then press the volume down button again, I never end up seeing "Boot Android (NO BP)". The top of my screen only ever says "AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)". Any suggestions?


texts: Samsung S5 mini supports Gamepad through OTG?

texts:
I saw a video and some discussion where people just plug and play gamepads on to Android phones.

I've got a Samsung S5 mini (SM G800F, Android 4.4.2, not rooted). Bought a wire USB SNES Clone + OTG from ebay, plugged to my phone but nothing happened: tested on games, an app to debug gamepads, with a different and new USB Gamepad etc; I thought the USB OTG was damaged, because I tested with two different usb gamepads, so I bought a new setup ( http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/301836055385 ) + a different OTG cable from a different manufacturer. It doesn't work!

Used this app to check for OTG support:

It's supported but no devices are listed / none found;

texts: Prestigio PSP5457DUO Android 4.2.2 does not connect to my academic network

texts:
In my university, I have a free internet WiFi access with eduroam system. However (double-checked the login and password already) I can not connect to the network with my phone :(

All the security parameters are fine (my Asus laptop connects with no problem).

When I had a Samsung phone, I was able to connect. I had to sell it, and now ended up with Prestigio. However, I can connect with other WiFi networks around using my phone. What might be the problem here?
