App Inventor Gradle DSL method not found: 'implementation()'

Hello i have this problem.

ERROR: Gradle DSL method not found: 'implementation()'
Possible causes:
The project 'android' may be using a version of the Android Gradle plug-in that does not contain the method (e.g. 'testCompile' was added in 1.1.0).
Upgrade plugin to version 3.4.0 and sync project

LG G4 - Forgot Backup PIN

Hello all,

Kindly requesting your assistance on the below.

I have an LG G4 which is requesting for back up pin. I don't seem to remember inputting one and I'm looking for a way to gain access to the phone. I've used the below methods with no success:

1. Manual Method
I've tried all the number combinations that I have in my head with no success. (Can anyone confirm the number of characters the backup pin has? All my combinations are four digit codes)

2. Find My Device
I've tried to use "Find My Device" to unlock it but I only get the following functions
  • I can locate the phone on the maps
  • I can make the phone ring
  • I can lock the phone and put any phrase I want on it (Why is there no option available for unlocking?)
  • I see the option to erase the device but I don't want try that because I will lose the data on the phone.

3. Dr.Fone
I've tried dr.phone which although it matches my phone model successfully, it gives me an error that "Install model failed"

Is there any other way possible to regain access to the phone. Appreciate your assistance.

WiFi Calling

Sometimes in my house, when I'm on a call, people tell me I'm breaking up or sound like a robot. However, I can always hear them fine. So I decided to turn on my WiFi calling but have a few questions.

1. Is it a good idea to use WiFi calling?
2. By doing so, does this mean "all" my calls and texts will use WiFi instead of my cellular network when at home and connected?
3. If WiFi is weak or drops, does cellular network automatically kick in?
4. Most important, why do I need to set up an address for? Is it just for 911 calls? What happens if I go to my friends house and I have their WiFi already saved on my phone? If I ever had to call 911, wouldn't it just show my home address, instead of theirs?

I've been searching for the answer to these questions and I'm actually more confused. Can anyone help me out?

Email Integration through API

I am trying to develop a small application for sending and receiving emails on the Android platform. Currently i have been using the Java-mail API trying to send an email. However i thought that if i implement my app using java-mail how am i going to receive an email and get a notification from my app that i have received it? Is this having to do with Service and Provider classes found on Android? I am a complete beginner on android.

Apps are not giving notifications

So lately while installing new apps on my OnePlus 6 I do not get any notifications from those apps. I have checked all settings but cannot find anything.

It is quite annoying since I want to install a habit tracker that reminds me of habbits. The notifications I am setting up are not coming to the phone.

Does anyone have any idea what this could be?

Thanks!

Location Updates not received when app enters doze mode (Android O)

My application uses OnNmeaMessageListener to receive NMEA sentences and these messages are write to a file. The code works fine till Android 6. In Android Oreo, after screen is off, we receive the sentences continuously for ~1hr and then only few messages per hour. I tried using Foreground Service. But when app enters doze mode updates are not received continuously. How can I ensure that location updates are received every minute even when app is in doze mode?

Help MyRound Pro on Gear S3

I've been using MyRound pro on my Gear S3 regularly with no issues up until this weekend and yesterday all of a sudden started having an issue.

I was able to start a round okay, but after a couple of holes all the distances showed up as 999 yards so I thought I'd try exiting out and coming back in. So now when I start the ap on my watch it says "login validation" and opens the ap on my phone. When I hit "new round" it finds the GPS satellite and brings up nearby courses. When I select one it says loading course data, then says "Please log in from myRoundPro mobile app before using Gear app" then closes. Does anyone have a fix for this?

(MOD) - OpenGL Vulkan & 64-bit Support Recovery Flashable For All Android Devices!

Welcome to the 1st ever:

OpenGL Vulkan & 64-bit Support Mod!

So you think your the only guy making crazy experiments, NO I'M THE CRAZIEST MAN who's bringing you a mod that will help users increase their support for 64-bit based applications but run applications using OpenGL Vulkan v3.2 to render graphics at a high calculation speeds and as well increase system performance by tricking the OS it's a 64-bit OS while treating the 32-bit as its primary OS think of this mod to use 64-bit OpenGL and graphic and performance as if your OS is completely OVERDOSED on steroids.

We took months to work on this and worked on each file to ensure a 100% mod and kept it away from the public to leak out my project, however their are some drawbacks witch are the following:

  • Android build MUST NOT be on the stock OS & it has to be on a Custom ROM Lineage OS based in order to work.

  • Android Version must be v8.0.0 or higher for this mod to work doing this below could brick your device but hasn't been tested!

  • your devices GPU must be a Adreno GPU it will prevent your OS to boot if you install on a device other then adreno it can be any variant of Adreno as long as it is Adreno!


  • Device must be a 32-bit (armeabi-v7a) device do not whatsoever install this on a device that already 64-bit unless the OS itelf is 32-bit (armeabi-v7a) and not 64bit (armeabi-v8a)


NOTICE:This Mod was carefully developed in an environment that was fully safe to test and was tested & improved overtime due to trial & error, we HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you backup your OS before attempting to install this because even if this was fully tested before release and confirmed working anything can happen if anything does go wrong your fully responsible for any damages to your device once you install this mod. This mod will not modify your system hardware this is software based and will only be active as long as the /system partition was not formatted via the recovery for a ROM update, ensure after each ROM update or ROM you install you must reinstall this mod again in order to keep using it, furthermore keep in mind that adding 64-bit support was very hard but doesn't officially mean application with requirements of a armeabi-v8a OS/Device will run, this will utilize any application with armeabi-v8a to render it and load up the os and apps faster!

I am trying: Open Whatsapp and send message to Contact Name
In some variations it will just open the messaging app (SMS).. seriously, who is using SMS nowadays..

Also, I don't see Bixby Labs possibility.

Why does the J3 take three steps to power down?

J3, Android version 7.0

Two questions:

• 1. Why must one do three tasks to power down the phone?

a) side button press
b) screen confirm off
c) drawn dot pattern

Why the complexity and precaution for a simple power off? The S5 powers down immediately when pressing power off. (Android V 6.0.1)


• 2. How to make the screen dot pattern always appear on startup? Now one must swipe the screen to have the pattern appear, then draw the pattern?

"Invalid Destination Address"

Can't send pictures to any device via text messages, not even to myself. I always get the same error "Invalid Destination Address". I'm not sure if the latest update is responsible but it seem to have started when I let the phone do a system update. Here's a list of what I've done so far with no help.

1. Emptied the cache for messages+ and forced stop and restarted the phone.
2. Tried 2 other messaging apps.
3. Sent to iphones.
4. Sent to other android devices.
5. Sent to myself.
6. Made sure recipient numbers were correct. (even my own)

By the way, no other device can send pics to me via text. Can anyone help?

App Inventor How to use USBManager without always asking the user permissions?

Hello,

I'm developing an application that use a USB device. Each time the device is reconnected, i must ask the user permission to connect to it.
The problem is that the smartphone and the device should work without an user intervention. Sometimes, the USB connector move a little bit and all my application is blocked because the permission are not granted anymore...

I found some tips for older versions of Android (...) but nothing for API 27...

Someone have a solution or a workaround to use a USB device without the user permission ?

Thx
