Help Android LDAP contact Address Book live lookup, no times sync

I've got an LDAP contact address book, meant to lookup the S/MIME email encryption details of target mail recipients known to my company.

The LDAP is publicly available, as third parties can also use it to search the S/MIME details of specific staff based on their email address.

Because its publicly available to people I dont know, my LDAP supports anonymous lookup, ie no authentication is required.
Obviously I dont want my entire LDAP to be harvested, so as a counter measure, you can only do live lookups for a matching email address, and when searching for wildcard, only 1 email address is returned.

So I can add my LDAP in Android as a contact account. But apparently when looking up an email address from my default mail client, no email address is returned. Most likely because android does a sync and doesnt do a live lookup.
In Outlook for Windows an LDAP lookup for an addressbook works just fine.

My questions:
1) Can anyone knowledgable on the LDAP in Android, confirm that live lookups in an LDAP contact address book are or are indeed not possible?
2) When it is possible to do live lookups, could you kindly tell me how?
3) If a third party app might be required either for the LDAP support, or a specific mail client app, kindly do let me know

As my LDAP is publicly available, send me a PM and I will provide you with the details, should this help you with helping answering my questions. I also wouldnt mind posting it here, but could be considered a commercial advertisement, and thats definately not how I want to come across.

Apps Android:InstallLocation in manifest file

Hello,
I am working as a tester in outsourcing company and one of our clients is currently developing a game for Android. In manifest file one of the lines is Android:InstallLocation="0". According to guidelines instead "0" there should be "auto", "preferExternal" or "internalOnly". Devs say that they don't have full control over the manifest because Unreal Engine, which they are using for their game, writes this file based on .ini file they specify. There are three digits that can specify app's install location (0,1,2) and each of them properly corresponds to "auto", "preferExternal" and "internalOnly". The question is: will Google treat this as an issues during reviewing the app or is it acceptable?

This place hasn't been the same since...?

I thought this might be fun. It grew out of an actual thought I had involving a now-former member; more on that later. This is geared to long-time members.

The idea is to say, "This place hasn't been the same since," and then saying who or what it was.

For example, and this is where the idea came from:

"This place hasn't been the same since Stinky Stinky left."

And then you can expand on it if you're so inclined; like mine:

"Because he was so amusing, and his long, sometimes rambling posts left me either laughing or scratching my head."

Get the idea?

We do need some rules, though! Please do not use this to complain about the site's moderation or old mods, or insinuate politics or other controversial topics into the discussion; there are boards for that.

Okay, I started, now have at it! :D

Disney+

just curious if anybody here will sign up for the streaming service? or what is your thoughts on another streaming service being offered?

i will most likely get it on day one.....even though i have seen most of the disney content. i'm more curious on original content like a new MCU TV show on Loki.

App not installed

I'm trying to figure out why an app isn't installing. I have my phone in developer mode, and I have the settings so that it will let me install from the specified sources.

I download the apk and try to install it, but after a few seconds it just says "App not installed". no other info. The app installs fine if I'm connected to the dev system, but not if I download the apk. Just trying to figure out why. What should I be looking at to resolve this?

The only thing I can find that makes sense is the app is unsigned. But I would expect my permissions settings to resolve that.

Help S7 data unusable on device - hotspot fine !!

I've been through the forums / internet and can't find any solution to this very specific problem. Symptoms: Since returning from abroad 2 months ago, my S7 is barely receiving data from the mobile network at the app layer. e.g. I just tried to load google news and it took about 30 seconds. Next two attempts timed out.

Weird thing is if I enable the hotspot and connect a tablet or laptop, it loads the same page instantly. Therefore antennae is obv. fine, data transfer test from the laptop to the hotspot shows 18Mbps.:

However I can't even run that test directly on the phone. On wifi it behaves better with no noticeable slowness of data transfer.

What I have tried:

  • Uninstalling all games, unnecessary apps my kids had on etc.
  • Clearing the cache
  • Using a cache cleaning app
  • factory reset
  • hard reset
  • wiping the APN settings and re-pulling
  • every permutation of the network's APN settings
none of the above has any effect. I've pretty much taken to bringing my 7" tablet around nowadays and hotspotting instead of using the phone directly.

Can anyone please put me out of my misery - am just on the verge of chucking the thing altogether now..

Adding *Existing* html and js files to the assets folder in Android Studio 2019

I have an existing Android Studio project with an assests folder called www. It presently has an html file in it.

Outside Android Studio I have moved some other html/javascript files to the www directory on my hard drive using the standard windows file manager.

How do I get Anrdoid Studio 2019 to recognise those existing files are there?

Trouble syncing contacts with Microsoft Exchange

I've recently noticed that my S9+ is not syncing correctly with Microsoft Exchange. The phone indicates it is syncing and shows a current date & time of sync. However, my Microsoft Exchange account has 440 contacts and only 435 of them are showing up on my phone. I also noticed after updating a phone number with one contact on Exchange, that new number is not updating with that same contact on my phone.

Hello everyone!
I know, that among you there are great app developers. So, I would like to create simple Android app (version 6+) to detect plant diseases. It would be capable to use both photoes and saved images in phone memory. Model now is saving in .tflite (.lite) format. It was pre-trained on 30 classes. All neccessary model files would be done.

If it is interesting for you, please inform me! :)

After BBM shut down, many BBM users have started to use Bat Messenger(BAT). It's end-to-end encrypted. Its features are designed to protect your privacy. Except the basic messaging tools, you can enable Screenshot alert, Destroy password, Confidential code and I add others only to protect your privacy.

It's free to download in Google play. Unlike other messengers, signing up for BAT is really simple and anonymous. It doesn't ask for your phone number or email and will never access to your phone contacts. BAT will never collect user data because it uses end-to-end encryption. Your messages will be only stored in your phone rather than BAT's server.

Set a password and nickname then you can start to use it. You will find the UI is simple and easy to use. There are four sections-- Chat, Contacts, Explore and Settings. BAT is not limited to chatting with your friends. You can connect with the world more secure by BAT. Feeds later will be added in Explore section, you can explore Feeds to know what's happening in other place and meet new friends.

What makes BAT different is the broadcast features. By using Broadcast, you can send messages to many people without being in a group chat. At present, you can select up to 500 contacts to broadcast messages. Signal doesn't support Broadcast. In WhatsApp, users can select up to 256 contacts to broadcast messages. In Telegram, broadcast is called “channel.” Users can first add up to 200 people to a channel. If the member count reaches 200, the channel will become an open channel and have a username.

BAT team listens to users. Bat messenger added Arabic for Arab users and will add new features like Ping and Feeds according to users' feedback. They will get back to you if you send feedback to support@batmessenger.com

Bat Messenger can be downloaded for free now in Google Play. Even though there is nothing you need to hide, but you still need to use encrypted messenger in your life, because your user ID, phone number, location are more worthy than your expection. If you think security and privacy is important, give it a try.

Action needed! DirecTV, AT&T U-Verse, DirecTV Now customers please read

I just found out that AT&T has failed to renew its contract with CBS and as a result, on the 20th, DirecTV, AT&T U-Verse, and DirecTV Now will cease airing CBS and CW (which it owns) in many major markets.

If you're a customer--or even if you're not, but just want to help--please read about it and use the contact methods on this page. Quickly! :)

ETA I just found out about Locast, which is available as an Android app and as a new DirecTV app. The latter method lets you watch your local channels on TV, the way I like!
