1. There can't be a one click import, because Android's security model means that without root privileges one app can't access another app's database.

In principle if the stock launcher could back up its settings to the shared storage Nova could read that. But (a) I don't think it does, and (b) since different launchers have different options and settings it's implausible that they'd save in the same format, so the Nova developer would have to work out how to interpret each other launcher's backups separately. All just for a starting point, since the reason to use a replacement launcher is to do things the stock one doesn't.

2. Yes. As said previously, nothing in Nova changes anything in the stock launcher.

I fact it's not likely Nova will put icons in random positions: if you are one of the people who fills their screens with icons it's more likely that most of them won't be on the Nova home screen at all (they'll be in the app drawer, of course) and you'll have to re-add them to Nova. By default it will probably only put a few on screens (I keep my screens mostly bare of icons, and would remember if I'd had to sit down and remove hundreds of the things!).

Any Way to Save Google Authenticator Information to Local Device?

There are other authenticator apps out there, so another option is just to use one of them. Certainly some of them have better security features than Google: password/biometric locking of the app, encrypted backups, that sort of thing.

As it happens a major international lab I work at actively discourages use of Google Authenticator for 2FA precisely because of Google's unencrypted cloud syncing of keys, the same reason you don't want to turn the cloud connection on.

fishdom install error

the app installed as a non-package conflicts with an existing package, even if fishdom is removed, it gives this error
And what you say three times is true? ;)

Does it do this even if you try to reinstall from the apk you used originally? That's what people are suggesting, try reinstalling that, and if it works clear everything, uninstall and see whether it works then.

Otherwise any remnant that can mess up an install is likely to be somewhere where you can't access it without root. If your device still has a cache partition (likely, as Samsung never got with the modern A/B scheme) you could try booting into recovery mode and clearing cache (just cache, not cache and data) and see whether that helps. Otherwise I've no suggestion apart from a factory reset, which you probably don't want to do just for one game.

tns debug/build android returned with unexpected error (Nativescripts)

Before I proceed, let me explain that I am recently employed into this new company as a junior IT support. I mainly do hardware with very2 little programming knowledge. Recently my company upgraded to a newer server and we have changed the location of the databases. However our apps are still pointing towards the old server url/location. I have been in contact with the app developers on how to change the configuration of the apk; in which it needs to be decompiled. They are engaged in a big project and was unable to assist me at this moment. Instead, they have given me the whole folder containing all the source code (Shown in the screenshot).

I was asked to:-

  1. Change the URL setting in on of the config.ts file contained in the res folder - done -
  2. Recompile everything to APK so that the 'new' apk can be installed on our mobile android devices.
Upon reading the README file in the folder, it is obvious I am supposed to rebuild this apk app using nativescript. Please see screenshots:-

My questions / Issues :-

  1. I have done the steps required in the README file such as:-
    a. Install [node js] (https://nodejs.org/dist/v10.15.1/node-v10.15.1-x64.msi). Make sure to use version > v10 LTS (I am now using ver v12.22.12)
    b. Install Nativescript CLI using git bash
    npm install -g nativescript
    Done
    c. Install Java SE Development Kit 8u201 Done
    d. Install [Android Studio] (Download Android Studio & App Tools - Android Developers) Done
    e. Create android emulator. Done
    f. Clone this repository. <---- How is this done correctly? Do I copy the whole project folder and place it under an active working folder to generate the apk app? Please advise
  2. Do I run the .sh script PRIOR to running the related commands in tns such as 'tns android build' / 'tns android debug'?
  3. I did a tns debug android using command prompt (Admin rights) in the folder path and received :-

  1. I also did tns doctor just to check my configurations are correct or otherwise:-

I DID refer back to the developer of this app, however he did not have any comments rather than the android apk was created using nativescript (duh!). I have also send him the exact same question here however he is not replying as prompt as I expected. Would appreciate if anyone with the expertise could assist and guide me moving forward. Many thanks.

Root Lg Ally and Ice Cream Sandwich

Well...any luck? Least around the time you posted this people on xda got the ally to run 2.3.7 max (I think their link is dead). The most alive thing I found was 2.3.5 which worked perfectly. Idk maybe I can try my hand at it. ffs the galaxy s3 can now run android 13 (should have gone with oreo or nougat...13s a bloated mess) and ics and jellybean have now been poked and prodded at in every way imaginable so it cant be too hard these days.
the problem you will run into is finding any files that still exist to make this happen. there really is no dev community supporting the device any more. all the threads i have seen date back to 2013. i can't search xda because something is wrong with their forum section. but a google search shows threads that are pretty old.

Question about Pixel 7 Pro

power button to end a call, and I have that enabled at the moment. I assume that I must turn that off, or exactly as advertised, I'll end the call.
Yeah, I think you are on to something haha. I forgot that was even an option. There are other ways to dim the screen, probably apps for just that or automation apps - I use Tasker but IFTTT or Macrodroid would work. I have mine set to dim when the screen is face down.
