Security Settings System Trusted Users - G Pad 8.3 General

Hello, I just got my G Pad and going through the settings I cam to the trusted users in the settings and was wondering if all those are necessary to be on? Thanks in advance. BTW, after four days with the GP I am loving it.

Can't access call settings

Recently got a Samsung Galaxy Note 3. Tried to go into Device tab>Call Settings and when I click anything under that menu, nothing happens. Anything with a check box can be altered but anything that requires me going another level down (ex. Call rejection, call alerts, call accessories, etc.) will not allow me to further progress. I'm wondering if it may be tied to a default bloatware app I could have deleted. If anyone has any information on what the problem may be or what app may be responsible, it would greatly help so I can correct the problem. Or if anyone else has encountered this issue...
Just figured this out with a little trial and error. Was the "ActivityForceNewTask" module in Xposed Installer. Disabled and settings are working fine now.

thanks a ton. U r a life saver. Was beginning to tear my hair out in frustration trying to figure out how to get my call settings sub menus back. Your suggestion did the trick.

Hi,
So maybe a little time will cure it????
My Stuff has nothing in it and I can't add it!
I use PushBullet anyway, does the same thing.

Is there a View My Stuff link inside My stuff?
Just spent 45 mins on the phone with moto. Still couldn't figure it out.
Looks like I'm just going to return to Amazon. Then reorder through moto.
Can't believe they can't figure this out.

Hi,
Don't believe it's the phone. It's a problem within the app itself.
An update with a fix is all it needs. I hope!!!!

Disable Mock Locations

I use two gig based apps to make some extra $$$: EasyShift and GigWalk. Since the lastest VZW update this past weekend, I get a force close when trying to launch the EasyShift app. The error message is "The 'Allow mock locations' develops setting must be disabled for this application to work" I have spoken with Verizon tech support Tier 2, Google Tech Support and Samsung Premiere Tech support - all with no helpful fixes. I have never rooted my phone before and would prefer to leave it stock. The developer settings don't have the simple on/off feature as I have noticed researching on the internet. If anyone can help I really would appreciate it. I am running a Verizon S7. These apps are a great way to pick up some extra money and I sure could use it.
Thanks!
Have you tried selecting "no apps" for mock location setting, and if that has no effect have you tried turning off all developer options using the slider at the very top of the menu? I suppose if that works you can always turn it back on as needed.
Thanks Storm. I have tried choosing No Apps and it had no effect. Also I turned off the developer setting all together and again no effect. It still force closes with the error message. Any other suggestions?
Factory reset?

Tried that one already. No go!
This is a really weird problem. I signed up and they both work flawlessly for me. I had never heard of these and can take advantage of them due to traveling all over the US. Thanks I hope you get it to work soon.

Jedi,
Do you have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7? Also did you update your phone with the latest update from less than two ago? I agree it worked prior to the update.
Yes and yes.

I also have a galaxy s7 for t-mobile and it started doing the same thing about 2 weeks ago. Again, they were working before but now and I tried the same thingsize with reset and all.
Any update? I'm having this issue as well.
I have this issue on the Carl's Jr. app. It just happened all of the sudden. The only changes I am aware of are two Security Certificate updates recently.
by my job im required to clock in on an app on my phone after doing the update (I have an s5 now running on the latest android version) it wont allow me because of this mock location. As everyone else I went to developer options and of course now it doesn't have the easy option to turn on or off so still wont allow me to clock in. Does anyone have any updates?
I am on the T-Mobile variant, but this is the only link that I found regarding this issue, I also am dealing with not being able to disable the mock locations. has anyone else been able to figure out what is up with this? thanks in advance for any help.

Update?
I just installed the Carl's Jr app on my 935P running the U-API3 firmware and get the "disable mock locations" message. I have selected no mock location app.
Has anyone found a fix for this yet?
I've always been curious what this mock locations setting was for or what it does... I assume it spoofs your location???
Fixes?
So is there a fix for this issue? I can't do anything with my Gigwalk app!
Same exact issue here. Have you tried to talk to gigawalk yet?
I am having this issue as well on my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S7 (7.0). Curiously, I have both GigWalk and EasyShift app on my phone currently. I have never had an issue with EasyShift. It works flawlessly. However, I get the warning and force close with GigWalk.
I actually had 5 jobs to do last night, and couldn't complete any of them. I had an old phone with me (S5, 5.0) and tried to do them on that one using wifi only, but the app wouldn't use that internet connection for some reason. The two jobs I was able to complete, I just uploaded via my work wifi this morning - no problems.
I'm still having this problem on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Verizon. I tried disabling mock locations via adb shell. It didn't work still. Anyone?

It's actually some apps check the settings this way:
Code:
// In marshmallow this will always return true
isMockLocation = !android.provider.Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0")
It should have been this way:
Code:
if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.M) {
AppOpsManager opsManager = (AppOpsManager) context.getSystemService(Context.APP_OPS_SERVICE);
isMockLocation = (opsManager.checkOp(AppOpsManager.OPSTR_MOCK_LOCATION, android.os.Process.myUid(), BuildConfig.APPLICATION_ID)== AppOpsManager.MODE_ALLOWED);
} else {
// In marshmallow this will always return true
isMockLocation = !android.provider.Settings.Secure.getString(context.getContentResolver(), Settings.Secure.ALLOW_MOCK_LOCATION).equals("0");
}

Lg h990ds mirrorlink

Hi everyone,
The mirrorlink function on my H990DS is not available.
Other variants have this in the settings menu!
Is there a way to activate this?
Thanks

Already in the menu, but the mirrorlink is not displayed.
The car radio unit can't recognize the phone.
Thanks
No mirrorlink on LG v20 (H990DS)
Some advice for this problem would be nice. I'm in the same situation and can't connect my v20 to the Discover Media from VW Car over mirrorlink.
I think there's an app on the play store that you have to download, but I've heard it's practically useless.
If you want to see it, it's called LG MirrorDrive

Thanks for response...but this app also need MIRRORLINK to work. This issue about mirrorlink is the first problem ive got so far with the V20. Ive contacted LG Germany about this issue and got answered that this phone is not released in germany and cant get further support about this issue. VERY SAD

Maybe its too late and OP sold his v20 already, but i just activated Mirrorlink function on my v20 without it out-of-box. This solution may be useful for other lg phones too:
1. Enable app installtaion from third-parties in Settings menu
2. Downlaod some custom file manager from Play Store (i am using Total Commander)
3. Go to /system/app/MirrolinkServer
4. There will be MirrorLinkServer.apk, install it, and mirrorlink option will appear in Settings menu in a section with Bluetooth, screen sharing, NFC etc.. (dunno its certain name in English :silly
enjoy
P.S. i googled this problem for a while and found my solution on some Chinese forum, but they got error when installing and considered it as some kind of region lock, so its not 100% working on all LG's, depends on your country.
Hi
Tnx alot
It was very helpfull

View settings after selling phone?

I purchased a replacement phone and want to sell my G5 Plus. I want to make sure that I don't miss any settings which I previously had set on my Moto G5 Plus.
I doubt it -- but is there a way to view app settings when I no longer have my phone? Maybe some way of loading it into some emulator or something?
Thanks

You could dump it into TWRP and then try to load it into bluestacks or something.
You should do your future buyer a favor though and flash it to stock.
I've yet been able to activate a phone while it has a custom ROM. I always have to go to stock, activate it THEN go to a custom ROM.
None of the ROMs I've used in the past integrate the star code that lead to activation.
Forgive me I forget that menu's name just now.
