Hi guys. We are in times of crazy rom updates, and when you update making a wipe, one of the big problems is you lose the icons order in the app list. I don't mean to icons in the home/launcher else icons in the general list of apps.
I know how to save the home icons and widgets disposition but is there any way to save/backup the order of the app list? I don't like alphabetical order or things like that, i personalize myself and is a pain in the ass do it every time i do i wipe to upgrade a rom.
I have been searching in the forums but didn't find anything.
Thanks
please anybody?
This would be amazing!
But in the meantime I normally screenshot every page before updating and save then onto the pc then I copy the order, it's not great but it works for now

Yep, but the order has to be saved in some system file, it must be there. It's annoying no one knows what file is :-(

the icon order and page layouts are stored in the app data of TwLauncher. you can backup its data with titaniumbackup and restore it later on. but be adviced that there might be side effects when restoring the data of an older rom in a new one.

Yes, i tried this but only saves the launcher/home disposition, not icon order in app list :-(

i guess you need to restore it after you restored all apps. if you restore the apps later on, their position won't be the same. at least i don't recall any problems with the applist order on my phone, and i make heavy use of folders.

I think it does, because when I wipe TwLauncher data the icon layout is lost and when I restore it they are where I put them. Maybe if TwLauncher is different between the roms it does not work? Anyway, the layout must be somewhere in the appdata, I think it is in the launcher.db file (/data/data/com.sec.android.app.twlauncher/databases/launcher.db), you can view it with Root Explorer's internal SQL viewer -> menu_item
Good luck!

Hmm... this seems strange. I've done the exact same thing and haven't lost my folders and icon order through three rom updates. Just make sure you backup the data of "TwLauncher" in Titanium before you flash. On restore make sure you only restore data for TwLauncher and as heldchen said restore all your apps first.
P.S.: Just to be on the safe side: you do mean the order of the icons in the app drawer and not something else?
After attending a talk about how to market our applications in better ways I just published a library I developed to ask users to users a rating on the Play Store.
It is extremely simple. It keeps track of the first time the application has been used and a counter of the number of times the application has been launched.
You can configure when you want to ask the user to rate your application both in term of number of launches and days from the installation.
When the conditions are met, the library creates a dialog with a button to open the Play Store page of the application, a button to postpone the alert and a button to dismiss it and never get asked again.
You can get the library from GitHub.
Feedbacks and recommendation about how I could improve it are very welcome.

Step 1ownload the libraries.
Step 2:-Then copy the .lib file to the android libraries folder in the project tree for the app you are designing.
Step 3:- Happy coding!
There doesnt seem to be a libs folder. I imported the Javas and followed the directions but don't know how to configure the gradle modules cause I'm using eclipse not studio.

Thanks for pointing it out. It is extremely important and the parameters regulating when the application should ask for a rating should be set with care.
I decided to try to make it the less annoying possible by showing the message only once (if not explicitly deferred by the user) when both the conditions on the number of launches and on the time from the first launch are met.
Do you have any idea about how I could make the message even less annoying?

I guess a good way would be to be to add a little shiny icon, if the user is curious (s)he will tap on this little icon, and that's the moment to display the pop up kindly asking for the review. This nice little icon taking little space somewhere on the screen would appear after a period of use to leave some time to poke around.
It will have the advantage of playing with end user's curiosity, and not aggressively show a pop-up, since the user will trigger it from it's own action.
Application's developer will be able to use something that fit the current interface or game as icon, not throwing the immersion to trash in a brutal way.
Backup plan in case the user isn't curious would be to still show the pop-up the hard way after some more time.
Some usage example could be adding the icon to the levels list in a game, or adding the icon somewhere in the toolbar for a file manager, text editor. Placing it next to a connect button for a social/messaging application.

Thanks for your comments. I'm going to support custom ways to show the alert to the user. The library will still contain the alert message but developers will be able to show whatever they want (possibly something less invasive) when the conditions are met

The library stores its data in a file and when the dialog is marked as processed it sets a flag which disables further notifications.
Actually a user may see the dialog twice on different devices. We could avoid that with the synchronisation of the data file but I don't know if ot is worth the effort

In a file means its not shared preferences right?
So if the user clears the app data, the file content will live ?

Ok... we can try creating some sub mechanism for that,
I.E. checking a file in external sdcard (requires pernission).
Or getting data from the internet whether the user has already rated or not.
Hello, using Internet or a file somewhere can be a good idea if the application itself already use on of those permissions, but it's not legit for an app to ask for Internet or file access just for this, security wise, we should only give the strict minimum permissions the application need to work.

Thanks to ragingredbull for pointing out you can shortcut to App Ops on the G4. App Ops won't officially be released until Android M but has been in AOSP since 4.3. Google hid it in 4.4 and it was no longer accessible without root. The G4 has it available. Props to LG for allowing this!!
App Ops allows you to restrict access permissions such as GPS, contacts or Keep awake for individual apps. It is basically a privacy control that the iPhone has had for a bit and is sorely lacking in Android. The G4 version works for downloaded apps only unlike a root version. It is, however, still very useful and gets you most of the way. If you find that disabling permissions for an app causes it to force close then the app is written poorly to handle null data and you will have to turn the permission back on if you want to use that app.
To access the menu, Download "Any cut" or "Quick shortcut maker" from the play store. You want to create a short cut for "Access Lock" from the app.
Open it, change 'incremental search' to ' normal search' and search for Access .
You should get a Settings option that you can expand. Look for one labeled Access Lock and click on it.
It's possible that some App Ops enabling apps may also point to the proper Activity and work the same way.
After you have made the shortcut, clicking on it will open a menu allowing you to restrict app permissions.
(now we just need a hosts blocker and firewall...)
Hm, which variant of the G4 do you have? I have a EU carrier H815 and can't find it. I scrolled through the whole list manually, but only can find the Hidden Menu Accesspoint stuff.
Only works for downloaded apps.

That app is for internal "sd card" aka the internal memory. I think the above poster is referring to the fact that some apps can't save to sd card. But that's a lollipop thing that the devs have to add to their code for it to work.

The setting variable name is in your local language.
I have a EU H815 too and I found it by searching for "lock" in my local language and picking the right activity from the listed "Settings" menu items. It's supposed to be the locally translated shortcut for the activity
"com.android.settings/com.android.settings.Settings$AccessLockSummaryActivity"
The QuickQuickShortCutMaker app only searches the translated names...
if somebody can't find access lock at another language try to change phone language to english =)
try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.greyshirts.firewall to use fariwall without root
For those using Nova.
Tap and hold the homescreen (or any landing page screen), select widgets, under Nova Launcher Widgets select Activity.
From there scroll down to settings, expand settings, and select Access Lock.
One of the big features in the new Galaxy was the addition of Whitepages built into the dialer.
Did Verizon force Samsung to remove that as well?

I found this feature by downloading "Any cut" from the play store and then scrolling through the list and finding "identify unsaved numbers" you can then turn it on from there.
Very similar In Nova Launcher... Create a new activities widget... Scroll down to the third phone choice (it has the most choices)... Then select "identify unsaved numbers"... That will create a shortcut.. Open it and flip the switch.
Yeah there are numerous programs out there.
True Caller, Whitepages ID, etc.
I would have liked not to download an extra program when it's built into the dialer.
I started a forum in the Verizon Community.
Hopefully if we get enough people to annoy them, they will bring it back.

can always install it via the app store. it doesn't integrate with the dialer like the samsung version was supposed to, but it will pop on top of the default dialer and give you an alert. just a thought.
This looks really good. I"m currently using CallApp, based on pulling info from social sites, Facebook, Twitter ect. but I want something more.
It is possible to get the builtin whitepages semi working. (the caller id works but searching for local business via the contacts search bar doesn't seem to) However doing so requires a rooted phone. If you go to your system/app folder you should see a folder called SmartCallProvider. Inside is the whitepages apk. make sure it was the right permissions rw-r--r-- then go to your system/csc folder. here you want to add this line to your feature.xml file.
Code:
<CscFeature_Common_ConfigSvcProviderForUnknownNumber>whitepages,whitepages,on</CscFeature_Common_ConfigSvcProviderForUnknownNumber>
reboot phone and it should be working. I've only recieved one unknown number call since then but whitepages seems to work as it was identified as a scam number.

you also need to enable the "identify unsaved numbers" setting in your dialer, which should now be available after preforming the modification.
I went outright and bought the unlocked, 8GB/512GB directly from Samsung (actually via Amazon and got the wireless duo charger and dex pad for free) and activated it on Sprint. I have been fooling around with the local as well as global APN settings. The global assignment of "tether_dun_apn" that worked on the SGS8+ (which I had and my daughter now has) did not work on the Note 9. Additionally, modifying the local APN to include "dun" in the APN type alone also did not work.
What I found that is now working (and unlike the SGS8+, you don't have to cycle mobile data) was to completely delete the "tether_dun_apn" key from the global settings. Also set the "tether_dun_required" to 0. After that, set the "APN2 LTE|EHRPD internet" APN type to "default,mms,supl,hipri,dun" in this order.
Once I did this, my hotspot will turn on every time with internet connection and has survived multiple reboots. Keep in mind that if you re-provision, at the very least, you will have to modify the local APN settings again. I haven't seen re-provisioning affect the global settings.
You can adjust the global and local settings from ADB shell via "settings put" command (or for the local APN, use something like QuickShortcutMaker as has been done in the past with the SGS8/9 and Note8).
Hope this works for you guys; it is working flawlessly for me now....and no root/custom ROM needed (never thought I would actually prefer to say that)...
Make sure you know what you are doing as changing the APNs (especially at the global level) can render your data connection moot...I would suggest "settings list global" from ADB Shell before any changes - copy that output and put it in a text file so you have something to refer to if needed. If you mess up the local APNs, you can re-provision and it will reset those to normal Sprint settings...

Sorry I'm new to this adb stuff. I need you to explain more thoroughly on how to edit the apn. Also please give the commands to type in the adb and pictures to show what it should look like.

Download QuickShortcutMaker from the play store.
Open it...
Follow screen shots attached in the below order:
1. Select normal search.
2. Enter "test" as your search term.
3. Select search.
4. Scroll to bottom where you see "com.test.LTEfubctionality" and click to drop down. Select the second "com.test.LTEfunctionality" entry.
5. In the resulting screen, select "Try".
6. In the resulting list, select "LTE APN Setting". Thus will bring up your local APN entries. The Sprint variant I have already modified only had one entry, "APN2 LTE|EHRPD internet", not all 4 like you see here for my unlocked version. Tap on this entry.
7. In the resulting list, scroll down and look for the "APN Type" entry. Tap on it to edit it. It should be "default,mms,supl,hipri,dun" in this order with no spaces between the values and commas.
8/9. Save the APN.
Restart your phone and it should work. You may have to cycle mobile data.
I may have put an extra screen shot in there twice...my bad...

6. In the resulting list, select "LTE APN Setting". Thus will bring up your local APN entries. The Sprint variant I have already modified only had one entry, "APN2 LTE|EHRPD internet", not all 4 like you see here for my unlocked version. Tap on this entry.
7. In the resulting list, scroll down and look for the "APN Type" entry. Tap on it to edit it. It should be "default,mms,supl,hipri,dun" in this order with no spaces between the values and commas.
8/9. Save the APN.
Restart your phone and it should work. You may have to cycle mobile data.
I may have put an extra screen shot in there twice...my bad...

Thank you very much. I have combed over multiple threads and none worked except for this method. Many thanks!

Unknown. I don't know how Tmobile sets up their APNs or if they also utilize the global scope like the unlocked versions do.
You can follow the instructions I gave earlier in this thread to get to the local APNs, then take a screen shot and post it here. Just don't change anything at this point.
We can go from there...

So you can open the APN, but can't edit any of the values?

Correct. I'm thinking maybe I should do the software update.

I'm also on the old ED 450 plan. Do I need to have a tethering plan?

I don't think so. I have the MyWay everything plan and I have a friend who's hotspot I have hacked in the past that has the 1500 ED plan and it has worked for him on all of the phones I have hacked for him (S2 up to the Note9)...
You should be good...
