What do you think of credit usage, Google Searching

Personally I'd think that anyone who has a reputation would want to have complete control over what is written in their name. In fact if I were them I'd want to write it myself.

If they let someone else write stuff and put their name to it they may find that they lose their reputation (both because the content is below their standard and because if people realise that they allow others to use their name that will undermine trust in them).
Can you have any advice for me to do this? Like how we could lay solid trust foundation for journalists

Glitch

Hmmm. I'm wondering if it was the carrier network all along. Sometimes they will update, upgrade or otherwise "improve" their service which will affect a small group of customers or devices. If it's significant enough, either from a customer base or marketing image standpoint they will patch it ... usually silently. All of a sudden the thing that used to work but stopped, starts working again.
That was my thought,although obviously they wouldn't admit it.The APN message they sent while I was in the UK changed everything.The fact that a UK sim would connect to 4G in both sim slots and no Spanish sim would work in either might lead to believing they tried to block other networks,but it back fired and just blocked Spanish.

Factory reset and phone rooted

So when I do back up what does it back up? I mean it doesn't put my apps back in does it? My main concern is a couple of pictures of my daughter I don't want to loose, cause only ones I have of her, and all the passwords stored on chrome browser and Mint browser Downloader. Do I loose all that?
password on chrome will get saved and can be used on multiple devices so you do not have to worry about that. i do not know anything about mint browser so i can't help you there.

as far as photos goes if you use google photos those get saved automatically to the cloud. if you do not have google photos then you can plug the phone into the pc and back them up there.

titanium backup - restore accidentally deleted system .apk

What deleted them and do you have a backup?

In the absence of any more information the simplest answer is to reflash the ROM (if you are using a custom ROM) or reflash with stock software (or a stock ROM backup if you can find one) if not. If you reflash completely to stock get all of your backups sorted first as that will unroot you and wipe everything.

To say more than that we'll need to know more about what happened and about your device (what model, whether you have a custom recovery and whether you ever took a backup with the recovery being the most important questions).

Android notification

The trouble is that unless someone has that exact app it's unlikely you'll get a definite answer. There are literally hundreds if not thousands of apps that use heart shaped notification icons, including dating apps (which I guess is your concern - these questions usually are about that) but also fitness apps, notifications that someone has received a "like" on some app or other, or things that happen to have "heart" in their name (which can cover a very wide range).

So you may be lucky (or unlucky, depending on the answer) but it's more likely that the only way to know is to ask him/her.

big problem with internet connection

Ok this thread got derailed and I kind of fixed my problem I got a computer and installed Linux Mint on it and it works fine.
As for the phone a hacker kid took it to his home and hooked it up to his computer and updated the WHOLE OPERATING SYSTEM.
He changed everything but the internet problem still persists.
This kid who knew a lot about Android said that I could get a terminal app like Linux Mint got and work with the configuration.
So I did that but I am not familiar with Linux Commands.
I can work with Linux mint but don't ask me about the terminal.
So there is where I need you guys to help me.
I need to know the command that turns auto search off to see if it could solve things.
If someone can help me with that it would be good.
I want it to work like Linux Mint does.
On Linux mint it searches and the network appears but it doesn't connect until I CLICK ON IT.
Then it just stays connected to the Network and doesn't change for anything!

HTC ONE M7 STOLEN! CAN I RECOVER PHONE, WILL SETTLE FOR FILES OR MUSIC LEFT?

I think you have very little chance of finding it, but here goes:

Your best bet is your Google account (I owned this phone and don't recall every having an HTC account). If you had the service enabled you can use Google's Find My Device website to locate it (it would have been called something different on a phone as old as the M7, I think "Android Device Manager", but it's the same service and the same website will work). The catch is that this will only work if the phone is connected to the internet, logged into your account and has location enabled. Unless all 3 of those conditions are met this won't work. So what are the chances that a year after it was stolen someone is keeping the phone charged-up and powered-on and still with your account on it (i.e. without doing a factory reset to get past your lockscreen)? This phone does not have the modern factory reset protection system, so someone could reset it and then put their own account on.

I think the chance of this working is basically nil, but at least it won't take long to try.

If you had Google Location History switched on you may be able to log in to your Google account and find where the phone was last seen (i.e. last location update).

The catch with all of this is that Google will disconnect devices from your account if they haven't been used for some time (I can't remember whether it's 3 or 6 months, but it's less than a year). Using them again will reconnect them, but that's not likely unless someone has reset the device (in which case it won't reconnect to your account anyway). So chances are none of this will work anyway. The Google Location History is your best bet, but since I keep that turned off myself I cannot check whether it will say anything about my M7 (which has been disconnected long enough that it no longer shows amongst my devices in my Google account).

The other consideration: did you report the phone as stolen to your service provider? If you did they will have blacklisted the IMEI, meaning that it will not be able to connect to any cellular network (not just yours: in sensible countries the providers share blacklists).

I'm afraid the real lesson here is that if a file is important you should never have only one copy, and that the backup should always be on a different device from the original. This is particularly true with phones, which are more likely to be lost, stolen or damaged beyond recovery than most other storage devices.

Cannot use SciChart in Android Studio because of license.

Hello everybody,
I'm new in Android Studio.
Recently, I get a trial license key for SciChart Android v2x. I read many times tutorial to set license(https://www.scichart.com/licensing-scichart-android/) but cannot activate my license. Because it is not written in which file should I put the licence code. So I tried to write it in my MainActivity.java file of my application like below:
"
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private AppBarConfiguration mAppBarConfiguration;

String license = ("<LicenseContract>\n" +
" <Customer>nnuni@mail.ru</Customer>\n" +
" <OrderId>Trial</OrderId>\n" +
" <LicenseCount>1</LicenseCount>\n" +
" <IsTrialLicense>true</IsTrialLicense>\n" +
" <SupportExpires>12/31/2019 00:00:00</SupportExpires>\n" +
" <ProductCode>SC-ANDROID-2D-ENTERPRISE-SRC</ProductCode>\n" +
" <KeyCode>28a24cba44.........038a6c</KeyCode>\n" +
"</LicenseContract>");
// Use Static method SciChartSurface.setRuntimeLicenseKey()
SciChartSurface.setRuntimeLicenseKey(license);

@override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
Toolbar toolbar = findViewById(R.id.toolbar);
setSupportActionBar(toolbar);
........................................................"
But it gives me the error <Cannot resolve symbol"setRuntimeLicenseKey">
Perhaphs it is because I did't intialise static SciChartSurface class. But I think it is built in class so I don't know how to do.
Second issue was I right to put this code in this MainActivity.Java class or Should I create new file for it.
If everybody has experience with setting SciChart license in Android Studio, please help me with real example.
Thanks in advance
Khadicha
