[Q] no option for saving attachment in stock email - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm not able to save some attachments I receive using the stock email client. Its for work. The only option I have is "info". Which tells me I don't have an app to view the file. I have several. It won't even give me the option of downloading the attachment. I remember gmail had this option and there was a special app you could download to fix it. But none that work with stock email.
The file format: xlsm

I always have this problem when i trying to view files fr my office lotus notes mail server.
Just tried Download all Files > failed. Shown download fail.
I believe they need password which normal browers don't saved.
Next i try opera mobile which i previously tried failed > this time it workes!!!! It works perfectly for pdf, xdw, xls attachments. It even has a download button to show all downloaded files to ease reopen or delete to free space.
Thus i recommend u giv opera mobile a try for this file attachment issues.
Thks to bro notegalaxy for sharing the info.

[Q] Nexus 7 4.2 Multi User with 3rd Party APK

hi all,
I got a problem. I am now using Nexus 7 with 4.2 (multi user support)
I have 2 users on my Nexus 7. I want to install the same APK on both users. I can install the APK on the primary user successfully. However, for the 2nd user, whenever I finished the APK installation, it states the APK is not installed.
Is there any settings or tick allowing me to install APK on the 2nd user?
Many thanks

You are doing it wrong...
When you set up a second user, they have their own account. On that user, open the Play store.
Under options, click Add account and enter the account you use on your main user.
Uncheck all the Synch options.
Now you will see all the apps you installed on the main user.
Just click Install on all the ones you want the second user to have.
They will install instantly - no download - and a symlink will be set to your main copy.
This way you never have two copies of the same app eating up your space.
At this point you can delete the Play store reference to your main account or just leave it.
Note: Don't use Root with multiuser until someone fixes it. Lag will make the nexus unuseable.

Are you sure you can install 3rd Party on Primary and Secondary users on 4.2.1? I have just tried. Still can't install 3rd Party APK on the Secondary user.
Is there any settings for this?

Nope

if you sideload the app using your PC through adb it will show up in both the primary and secondary user. I'm not sure if it matters but I would probably make sure you are in the primary when connecting with adb.
I also have this problem. If I use apkextractor the file works in primary user, but when i move it to secondary the apk corrupts
Anyone has this problem?

It's true, transferring the apk from ur computer to your android device using adb will make the apk visible to both the primary and secondary user.
What I did was:
Setup the adb thing (which was a quite an ordeal on it's own).
Then using the push command, transferred my apk to my device.
adb push C:\path\to\file\origianlFileName.apk /sdcard/Download/newFileName.apk
I chose a new filename (MCPE.apk) because the original had spaces and was long and hard to memorize.
The transfer was successful, but when I check to see if it was there, using ASTRO File Manager and also Windows,
the file name was the original file name (what it was called on my computer). Installing it at this point didn't work.
But then I renamed the file (using windows) back to "MCPE.apk" and THEN it installed correctly!!
YAY!!
Also before installing, I made the secondary user a developer, by that weird "Build Number" trick.
Not sure if that has any effect..
I am unable to install apk from my secondary user ,I even tried to rename the apks , I am able to download apps from playstore , the same apks install fine under the primary user , though enabled unknown sources option is greyedout for secondary user and I am not able to enable developer option for the secondary user ( the build tap procedure doesn't seems to work ) , I am on 4.4.2 , did anyone able to get through this ?

I may know the issue.
If you install an APK on the primary user and if you have updated the version of such APK to a newer version before you install the original APK to the Second user account, you will have such problem.
So, make sure to install on both user accounts with same APK.

Undeleting files on Nexus 4

My files were deleted without my attention with no ability to recover from a cloud (they were deleted before they synced).
I found a good app to recover deleted files - it's called Dumpster. But if I only had that app installed on my nexus before that, it would do its job.
Recuva won't work with eMMC, afaik. I'm out of ideas. Any solutions?
P.S. Would be great, if the gallery app (or the android itself) woudn't actually delete things, but store them in a reserved space (with versioning and all these things) to recover them later.

I'm not understanding what you're saying I guess. How did the files disappear?
I let all of my images auto upload to Google+, and then delete the non important ones from there. You didn't have auto upload turned on?
I think he is saying that people had his phone (friends, family, whoever) & deleted files/pictures & nothing was set to sync to any type of cloud service. Therefore, the files are gone, permanently deleted. He goes on to say that it would be rather helpful/useful if, when files are deleted, they aren't permanently deleted, rather, they go to a different place, so to speak, so that they are recoverable unless chosen to permanently delete.
Further, it seems this person has found an app to do just that, however it needs to be installed prior to deleting them in order to recover them.

I had an automatic upload to Dropbox, but the video was deleted before it was uploaded there.
My question is:
How can I recover files deleted from a filesystem on a *nexus 4* on vanilla image without root?

It could be possible to recover deleted files from Nexus phone. Take a look at this guide: google nexus data recovery

For other people who are looking for an answer: I don't think you can. Android 4.3 (and up) have TRIM auto enabled. What that means is that the OS automatically informs the storage that certain blocks are unused and ready for garbage collection, so the possibility of recovery with TRIM enabled is low.

[Q] Bypass exchange security

Hey all,
I'm coming from the Samsung Epic 4G touch ..... thankfully off sprint ......... that was a horrible 4 years of abysmal coverage .. slow speeds when it would connect .. and random disconnects thrown in just for fun....
I'm pulling crazy fast speeds everywhere I go ... Hit 50Mbps this morning on my commute..
However, one thing I liked about my samsung was that there was an APK to bypass the exchange security pin ...
Anybody know if the Epic 4g Touch (Sprint version of SGS2) APK will work on the G2? or if there is a version out there that will accomplish this ?
I saw one for the GS4 ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2355654
Didn't know if this would work on the LG G2 ...
Thanks in advance!!!!
Thanks guys!!!!
Are you rooted? Do you have twrp installed? If so try it and give us a yay or nay. It's not that difficult.

Awesome!!! I hope you get it ... It's a pain in the ass to have to password unlock my phone everytime the screen goes off
I would also love this email bypass apk
Here is an Xposed module designed for the G2 that bypasses the Exchange password policy. Use at your own risk.
anybody got this to work?

When I try to install, it just says "Application not installed" and doesn't do anything .... I don't know if I need to put it in a special folder or something for xposed to see it ...... I don't know what to do
any ideas or is there a different way to install this APK ?
Try saving the apk then using solid Explorer or the built in file manager to find and install it. Installing from the notification shade doesn't seem to work

This is how I did it.. file explorer ... install
It just then goes to a screen that says not installed and your only option is to exit.
Xposed doesn't seem to know anything about this file.
Make sure to go to settings, security, and select install all apps or similar option

Solution
I just did this on my own before seeing your post- hopefully you will find this useful.
I used this set of APKs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1965468
Grab Email-JB.apk and Exchange2.apk
First, you need to completely uninstall (not just freeze) the LG Email app. I used Titanium Back to do this- make a backup of the app first in case you ever wanted to go back for whatever reason. Once the LG Email app is uninstalled, you can install the 2 AOSP APKs.
I didn't try installing them normally (download->open->install), it's worth a shot- instead I used the directions in the post to push the APKs via ADB.
You should see "Success" after pushing both via ADB (I did Exchange2.apk first, but I can't imagine it would matter). Unplug your phone, open Email, and you're set. My Email is syncing perfectly with my corporate email, no lock screen password required.

YES!!!!!!!!!! This totally works..
Thank you for looking out, and thanks for posting this ... I've been waiting to be able to add this .. and having to carry 2 phones to check email because I didnt want to be pinlocked on my G2!!
My procedure -
Rom tool box free for the uninstall, the titanium way didnt work for me because I have TWRP installed .. and when it would try the recovery removal .. it would boot to TWRP instead of the stock recovery ...
Anyways, Rom Toolbox free has an uninstall utility, couldnt be easier .. uninstalls without a reboot needed.
Turned on wireless storage, copied over exchange2.apk and Email-jb.apk and installed through android .. didnt use the ADB method .... it works perfectly!!!!!!
Thanks again.
That works. Only downside is it removed the feature of peak and off peak for message retrieval. oh well.

Tried this several ways, but it does not install. Can u give some more direction on this? Do we put itf in the apps folders? Flash it? Any advice would be appreciated. I like the lg email app and don't want to go back to the stock one if possible.
if someone figures out how to do this with the stock email app that comes with the att version, that would be awesome. I like that version better than the one you have to install to get this to work.
I really hate having to use a pin, but I have to give my work permission to remote wipe my phone. Is there any chance this could be flagged by my employer and they remote wipe my phone? That would really suck because of the lack of memory card. Anybody that has been remote wiped, did it affect the entire phone, or just the main system?
