I've had a few responses of this thread ,I have also looked at another thread , it's a little confusing as some say it will delete and remove all data with device switched off and some say it will only delete and remove with device switched on ?
If the device is off ( offline as no data connection or WIFI ) then when it does receive a signal will that trigger a response to delete and remove data I. E local back ups ect

Hi all,

If you had been able to decrypt the encryption lock securing this phone, you would have complete access to using it again. But whatever.
Try flashing a stock ROM, flashing the existing Android install with a clean, new one 'might' work and allow you to re-use this phone:

Thanks for the help!

I have an application designed to operate the USB serial device. The Manifest contains the corresponding filter:

<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.hardware.usb.action.USB_DEVICE_ATTACHED"
android:resource="@xml/device_filter" />

When I plug the USB device, the system pop-up dialog asks "Open ... when this USB device is connected?". I can confirm or decline, and this part works fine. However, if I decline and then restart the application from the menu, my phone hangs out. In the stack trace, I see the error:

User has not given permission to device UsbDevice...

Therefore, I have to ask for the USB permission explicitly. I have tried several implementations and the simplest one looks like this (I use the usb_serial_for_android library: https://github.com/mik3y/usb-serial-for-android):

@override
protected void onResume() {
....
UsbManager manager = (UsbManager) getSystemService(Context.USB_SERVICE);
...
List<UsbSerialDriver> availableDrivers = CustomProber.getCustomProber().findAllDrivers(manager);
...
UsbSerialDriver driver = availableDrivers.get(0);
if (!manager.hasPermission(driver.getDevice())) {
manager.requestPermission(
driver.getDevice(),
PendingIntent.getBroadcast(this, 0, new Intent("com.android.example.USB_PERMISSION"), 0));
return;
}
....
}

The problem is that "manager.requestPermission" executes twice.

When I start the application from the menu, the pop-up dialog asks "Allow the app ... to access the USB device?" If I confirm, the same dialog appears again. It's a rather annoying behavior

Here is the Log:
...
I/storage permission: DENIED
V/PhoneWindow: DecorView setVisiblity: visibility = 4, Parent = null, this = DecorView@8856cab[]
D/WindowClient: Add to mViews: DecorView@8856cab[MainActivity], this = android.view.WindowManagerGlobal@5653205
...

The pop-up on storage access appeared. I pressed "allow"

I/storage permission: GRANTED
I/directory: EXISTS
I/usb permission: DENIED
V/PhoneWindow: DecorView setVisiblity: visibility = 0, Parent = ViewRoot{632025a com.ERG.erglogger/com.ERG.erglogger.MainActivity,ident = 0}, this = DecorView@8856cab[MainActivity]

The first pop-up on USB access appeared. I pressed "OK".

I/storage permission: GRANTED
I/directory: EXISTS
I/usb permission: DENIED
V/PhoneWindow: DecorView setVisiblity: visibility = 0, Parent = ViewRoot{632025a com.ERG.erglogger/com.ERG.erglogger.MainActivity,ident = 0}, this = DecorView@8856cab[MainActivity]

I pressed "OK", but the permission was not granted (manager.hasPermission(driver.getDevice()) is false). So, the second pop-up on USB access appeared, and after I pressed "OK", the permission was granted:

I/storage permission: GRANTED
I/directory: EXISTS
I/usb permission: GRANTED
D/CdcAcmSerialDriver: trying default interface logic
...

What do I miss?

P.S. I have also tried a "canonical" way described by Android Developers (https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/usb/host). However, this BroadcastReceiver based implementation behaves in the same way. I have read the related posts, like this one Android asks for USB permission twice and communicated with the author. The problem is still actual.

Hi - hope you are all well.

Anyone know anything about the Gallery Auto Tag feature?

Things like.....

1. Is it a Gallery feature
2. Are the images analysed "in the cloud" - what an incredible breach of privacy
3. Can it be disabled?

Afraid not.
Android doesn't store wifi passwords by default.
It's a security thing.

I must install Google Authenticator for Coinbase. When I try to follow the instructions I get to places where it says press <this> and I cannot find <this> on my phone.

Specifically from here: https://support.google.com/accounts/answer/1066447?co=GENIE.Platform=Android&hl=en
The instructions state:

1. On your Android phone or tablet, open your device's Settings app
   
   Google
   
   Google Account.
2. At the top, tap Security.

I get to Google and there is no "Google Account"

I have some tremors in my hands. I can type on a keyboard but typing and selecting tiny things on the phone is really difficult and frustrating.

So: How can I set up Google Authenticator? A link to a good set of instructions will greatly appreciated.

When I try to do the install Google Authenticator it wants an account name and key. I have a gmail account so I enter that account name. When trying to enter the password the app states: key value has illegal character.

That tells me there is something I don't understand here. Please try to clue me in here.

Does you phone have Google services on it, and is it logged into Google. It's not a China variant is it? Because to use Authenticator, the device it's running on must be logged into a Google account.

I use Authenticator for quite a few sites, including AF.

I'm guessing that any law enforcement can justify their actions and by doing so will always be the ones that use the law as a sheild to do as they please.

Latte.
I think of a mug as a barrel shaped drinking tool. Germanic somehow. A fluted glass is just a glass even if it has a handle on it.

It might help if we knew what phone you had, whether you've had any recent updates.

But first suggestion: try rebooting into safe mode (instructions for doing this depend on what phone it is, so I can't tell you how as I don't know that but a quick web search will find it). This disables all third-party apps. If it still happens in safe mode then this is a system feature or pre-installed apps, so the answer must be in your system settings or one of those apps. If it doesn't then it's a user-installed app that's responsible, so the first thing I'd do is see whether any of them has had an update since shortly before this started.

i feel like i'm in the twilight zone...
i can barely search the play store for any type of android app, without half the results being an icon pack of some sort, free and/or paid. but a simple www.google search with the broadest terms i can think of ("sell android icon pack") yields 0 (ZERO) relevant how-tos, tutorials, books, or discussions worth a damn. this blows my mind, given play store saturation.
can you please help? links to info / instructions for beginners, suggest different search terms, etc. i'd like to develop something like this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jndapp.line.x.iconpack&hl=en_US.
thanks

Think of any studies involving hand gestures such as eating, drinking, smoking. I am involved in smartwear sensors research in studying smoking behaviors as well as modeling cessation solutions to smokers. If you are a researcher, we can talk. I have some publications out there.

Thanks lots Greum. You saved me on the issue of com.google.android.material.textfield.TextInputLayout

AOSP has released the V15 RIL_InitialAttachApn, where i see the new member call modemCognitive As per the ril.h documentation for modemCognitive member "indicating the APN setting was sent to the modem through setDataProfile earlier"

what does it mean? if i set modemCognitive variable to true, then Initial Attach APN setting are taken from the DataProfile which is sent modem earlier.

It this my understanding correct?

if yes, what will happen if modem has two data profile with IA bitMask Set which one will be choosed?

It could be that version of Kody you're trying to download what version are you having?..Now bear in mind that the developers always try to push you to their latest version but the latest version sometimes it is not it best for you to have or your device better handle a lower version of it..

May I blow you a kiss? Just on the cheek, of course.

Shoot, I'm going to keep that thread open in its own tab and take my time reading through it, and getting ideas. Thank you!

So is this the first time you've received that 2 notification but there's only one message? Or has it happened before, and if so, can you recall if it was sent from the same person?
The Textra app having a pretty large feature set with lots of customization options, it might be worth looking in its Settings menu in the Notifications section to see if any option might be relevant to what happened.
If this is the first time it happened though, it could just be a one-time glitch too. Or you might want to send a text message to whomever sent you this message, explaining that two message notification, and ask them to re-send that exact same message to see if the same thing happens on your end.

in case you missed it:

I used auto away and it not working its hit and miss really. Any others?

Click to expand...

It didn't work for me either.
I haven't really looked for others, I'm sure that I did back when I was interested in that sort of app- I just don't remember what they were called.

Suffice it to say that the fact that I lost interest and don't have one on my device probably means that I never found one that works.

Possibly there is an answering service with voice mail or texting that can and will reply.
Maybe it is an available service, or an app may be out there.

If you can find a programmer with interest in it, Auto Away might be able to be fixed.
It is an open source app, so the code is free and available.

great info as always @svim

well i always have issues when sending and receiving text messages from iphone users...not always, but i'm never surprised when there is one. never had any issues going from android to android regardless of carriers.

Hello, I have a Galaxy S7 SM-G930U and had the same issue. Both during incoming and outgoing phone calls my phone would display a padlock symbol and a message reading "Double tap to unlock." This would overlay the call information screen behind. When the message wass displayed, I was unable to hear a ring or voice on the call. The work around was to quickly double-tap and press speaker to allow the phone call to function. I had recently installed a new head phone jack inside the phone and had also received a software update. Trying new phone apps did solve the problem, so I suspected it was a hardware issue. I went through all of the steps necessary to remove the back cover, disassemble the phone and removed and reattached the battery connection. I had taken this step to replace the headphone jack. Somehow the battery connection must have been loose because reattaching the battery solved the 'double-tap' issue for me. Disassembling your phone is a process, be careful, or take your phone to a shop to check it.

......or just get a new phone....LOL

Wondering if the OP had gotten any insight on the Samsung sys apps with the 2008 install/mod dates.

I have the same finding and discovered that they can't be found in the playstore, can't be opened on the device and a couple redirect to what strike me as sketchy sites that never load all the way.

Sorry it took so long to get back to you. Just wanted to thank you again for the help. I did clear out around 10 gb of something. A big plus from the reset, gained a lot of internet speed. I guess I had a setting wrong somewhere.
Anyway, thanks again

sorry but you will most likely need to do a hard reset:

this phone came out in 2014, you might want to start thinking about upgrading soon IMHO.
