Android Device Manager now working, please read this (STAMINA problems) - Xperia SP General

Yesterday the device manager got installed into my SP. How? I don't know..It's Google's magic. The website is now working but with just a few features, It's not fully functional but at least you can see where your device is and make it ring.
The website is www.google.com/android/devicemanager
To keep it working you MUST enable GPS and Location Reporting, but I had to manually activate the device manager as a device administrator so check in the security menu if it is enabled.
There's a problem with Sony's STAMINA mode: If Google Play Services is not selected in the Always On list DEVICE MANAGER WILL NOT WORK
Thats all Folks!

Now I can have MyXperia, Android Device Manager AND Vodafone Protect to GPS track my device
Go to settings > security > device administrators to allow the manager to lock your device though! I have now learned to read the whole post before posting

I have it on my phone as well, only it doesn't show up on the ADM. My tablet does on the other hand, as does my old ray... Don't know how this is possible. maybe not fully operational.

[App] ScreenRotator by Brins0net

Just sharing what I found:
Screen Rotator detects the orientation of the device and uses its built-in configuration dialogues to create rotation behavior rules for specific applications, with an extended option to blacklist and whitelist un/wanted programs. A very neat feature is that it will turn the screen off if the device is placed face down but it also has a great option to prevent the screen from going off automatically if the device is not perfectly laid down flat (otherwise, when flat, normal behavior occurs).
After downloading and installing it to Device, it will stay resident after launching and get the device orientation in order to properly rotate the Windows environment, though it has options for minimizing and hiding.

P.S. Hope the real developer will notice this thread (unless he has done so), and maintain it, after deleting this thread completely and openning a new one, as this is a great application with some extra cool functions, compared to SKKV Software’s GSen.
Noticed the thread is there ..... ADMINS ... kindly remove this thread completely, thank you.

Lots of Issues with win7 build 7057

I did a clean install of win7 build 7057
Most of it works perfectly but a few huge issues are making me reconsider vista if something can't be done =(
Bluetooth shows an error 10 cannot start in the device manager
Wlan sometimes shows an error 10 cannot start in the device manager
Memory card reader shows an error 10 cannot start in the device manager but this one despite this still works it seems.
to fix this i need to reboot, so i can't practicably use sleep when im out on business to quick boot when i need it and put it to sleep during inactive periods so i would really like the sleep function to work better.
Sometimes all input to the device suddenly stops working until i put it to sleep mode and then wake it up, it still works, just i cant press anything, its like all controls and buttons get muted.
After all this i contacted HTC support and that can be read in the attachment.
For some reason the forum made my uploaded picture very small so i included a link to it:

MarketEnabler_3.0_beta

PayPal have recently released an application for Android, yet they have bizarrely only released it in the US... preventing UK users from using it. Now, theoretically it is possible to ask a US residing friend to provide you with a copy of the APK... but this means the application won't appear in your 'My Downloads' list in the market, and therefore you won't automatically get updates etc.
There is a better way!
An application by the name of 'Market Enabler' is the answer. This application is designed to let people from countries that don't have the ability to purchase apps do so - it effectively makes your device think it's in the US, giving you access to the US market. By installing this, switching region, installing PayPal, switching region back and then uninstalling Market Enabler (if you desire), you end up with the PayPal app on your device and in your 'My Downloads' (as shown in this screen shot).

The downside? You need a rooted device
please note that this app have been pullout from us market.

Install apps of unknown sources

In my shield pro 2019 there is no switch visible to allow the installation of apps of unknown sources.
I have developer options enabled already.
How can I install apps of unknown sources?
Can you just install filelinked? I've got most my apps using it
I'm late, but it is Settings - Device Preferences - Security & restrictions - Unknow sources
Sent from my Nord using XDA Labs
I've tried to use web download on the Analiti app by accessing apkpure and bringing up an app I have on other android devices. It will not download then I found that BlueMail and Filelinked are "not compatable" from Nvidia yet watched videos on YouTube that were made up to just a couple months ago showing this being done. The only thing I can think of is firmware upgrade 8.2.1 as of 11/16 is what is causing this. I'm wondering myself if there is a workaround or how to downgrade back to the last firmware if anyone has any input on this?
Looks like the Shield TV is locked down like chastity belt, going to be returning mine back to Best Buy. What a rip, considering Fire TV cube is half the price.
At least 8.2.2 installs from unknown sources fine.
