No App 2 SD Card Support Incoming to S5 ?? - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just now I opened up my App2SD program to see if I could move anything. The phone kindly informed me that due to the kitkat operating system (anything android 4.4 and forward) will no longer be allowing users to move their apps to the SD card. So now I will be stuck with a 16GB POS.
I am so frustrated with this issue I cant even express my anger. This is the f***ing 2nd time google has done this. Personally, no one from Sprint could confirm it, but I saw with my own eyes, the popup message. So i,m going to return this stupid thing before its too late, get the biggest internal memory you can, that, OTG, and the cloud will be all we have. I hate you for this decision googletards. I love you for everything else. GOD it's such a no-brainer ... just let people move APPS ... WHY NOIT !!! GRRRRRR !!!!

Nice! But dammit, I thought the AppStore was working in the UK now? When I try to "purchase" this, I just get told the AppStore isn't available in my region...
Installed. Thanks for the heads up.

Any one else concern about this app and its permissions. It want access to pretty much every thing... Any one have any more information on this? Reading amazon review, there were others who have same concern...
I still got it, so once i have all the information on this app, and i am convince this app not going to do any thing questionable to my device without my knowledge, i will probably install it then.
The way to check the amazon apps. Turn off your wireless launch the app.if it starts looking for internet to run. RUN FROM THIS APP..
Good luck.of course this does not apply to all apps as ssome are for net stuff.
Hope this helps.I check amazon free apps as everyday I get them most all but do not install many. There are over 200 apps in my amazon online thing verybfew installed.

Yup, mostly i do the same. Got alot of app from amazon but havent installed them all. As for the turning off wireless, i do that alot with some apps that i dont trust completely. Also i found out while back, some app actually stored data, that goes to where ever when and if you send some crash report but not restricted to just that. I am sure its for some legit reason, but i makes me question abit more.
I know this app has ability to access Remote file so it need net access, but asking permission to access my messages and stuff. I guess its just the devil in my mind with a pitch fork, stabbing my brain and telling it to question it...
Is it just me or does it seem that amazon store FORCES you to add a credit card to use their service?

Not that big of a deal, I used a pre paid credit card that now has no credit and I can continue to leech of amazons "free" paid apps.

I just uninstalled it, and the Amazon App apk, then reinstalled office. When it opens, it days please reinstall amazon app and sign in to use this app.
I'll NEVER install an app from Amazon again.

Yes it is, and it explains all the permissions the app needed to run too ..UGH
This is exactly what I was saying.they gather your browsing to push sales in your face and the adds you see.
You browse the net for cute shoes you will get nothing but that everywhere. Like hijacking your browser.

STOP SHOPPING FOR SHOES!
Yeah, I DLed it on my wife's Vizio tablet, since she is a prime member anyway(she also likes looking for the cute shoes), and she doesn't seem to be as concerned about the excessive permissions as I am. Personally, I'm a bit sketched out by the whole "reinstall amazon app to make it work" thing, kinda pisses me off. I use Documents to Go at any rate and it works fine for me.
Thank you

This is the #1 reason I root my phones. I even jailbreaked my iPhone 3G back in the day for the same reason. What does "download hidden" mean? I'm assuming you're using TBU to back up the apk?
Awesome sauce!

No worries y'all. This app has been avail for a long time. I agree, I was very happy to find it to hold me over until custom Roms become available. I feel like I want to dust off Kitchen, but I'm not that talented and I'm sure others are already lightyears ahead of where I'd be starting.
Anyone know if FoxFi works. It doesn't even need root...haven't tried it yet, but it worked on the Nexus.

Tested FoxFi and it works, as well as the FoxFi plugin with the proxy enable.
FoxFi is working fine for me.
Used it all day today.
Ok, so this program does what exactly? It masks to packets with the device identity and responds with the selected device description posing as something else. It should have a "clone your own device" to make sure that att does not get any notice of the device chg......

What is the method everyone is using for rooting at the moment?
This does not belong in development.
Development is for kernels, ROMS an mods
Moving this to general
On the Thrill, you can goto connectivity test in hiden menu to disable Entitlement to allow free wifi tethering without root. Can the same be done on the Galaxy S III?
If you are rooted, remove TetheringManager.apk and use a Wifi hotspot to toggle on/off. I use Widgetsoid2.x in the android market.
A word of caution. I've used WiFi Tether For Root User on my Thrill before. The problem is that it allows tethering even with the Entitlement enabled. Because of this, I got a text from AT&T warning me that tethering requires tethering plan. A few days later, I got a letter in the mail stating that tethering requires a tethering plan.
I have since disable Entitlement and deleted the Entitlement APN. Been tethering since without AT&T sending warning text and letter.
Now, does anyone know a guarantee way to tether the S III without AT&T knowing you're tethering.
Does this tethering app eat up phone plan data?

Google Wallet FIX!! -requires cwm backup!

Ok, here we go, im new to these fourms but not new to android, I resently got my samsung galexy s3 from sprint and had lots of fun with it. but, like many of you, I had noticed Google Wallet stopped working. I was in line at a vending machine and put my phone up looking all cool and, nothing. lol.
w/e here is what I did:
before I flashed cwm on my phone I made a backup. this is what saved me. the problem is Samsung pushed an update to fix it, but if u got cwm you cant install it.
1. go to your application manager, under the all tab find wallet and clear the data.
2. make a cwm backup. and restore your old backup before you flashed cwm. or you will need to find a way to return to stock.
3. if you are rooted you will need to unroot (i think you can reroot after, don't take my word for it). i used this guide www DOT epiccm.org/2012/06/sprint-sgs3-stock-restore.html
you can get odin from here: forum DOT xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1670973
replace DOT with .
i cant post urls XD
4. now boot up and update google wallet from play store (in the mean time, If you see the samsung update popup, cancel it!)
5. now go to your application manager, under the all tab find wallet and clear the data.
6. now go to settings -> system update -> update samsung software.
6. let it restart and update.
7. on boot up go and try to update wallet again from play store
8. open wallet and have fun!
(note that you are now unrooted and you don't have cwm)
Now all we need is a way to reset the flash counter!
Don't forget to hit thanks if this helped!
I wouldnt recommend clearing the wallet data like that, you need to go into the wallet app itself and clear the data that way, otherwise you can brick wallet forever.
Looks like a lot of work for a can of Coke or a hamburger from mcdonalds. When are people going to realized google wallet is a joke, just use a regular credit card for can a coke instead of trying to impress the old lady behind the counter.

By the way clearing data from the app settings is actually better and from what i hear is the right way to do it.

Unless one could link your own credit or debit card to wallet, I found it repetitive and dumb funding wallet with my debit card. After the 3rd time I looked at myself and I said "what the hell am I doing?" I just use my regular debit card for purchases. Once the novelty wears off I'm sure everyone will do the same.

No, once you put your debit card information in, you don't have to keep re-entering it to fund wallet (not necessarily a good thing). Also, I fund GW about once a week, not every time I use it.
So I need to root flash to pre update software, get GW working, then update to current software and unroot ???? BLAH

There's also a thread on xda with Google Now for ICS. Pretty easy, you just gotta flash the zip and then check, if the permissions have been set right. And I can guarantee it works on Sense 4
Actually I'm using it with Virtuous Infinity
But: you need ARMv7 Processor (guess you'll have that, Inspire 4G and Desire HD should have the same processor) and you have ot make space for it on the system partition.
And on Sense ROMs that means deleting a lot of stuff

Physically you cant but you can do it by changing your rom to a one that accepts SD partitions, then you partition your SD into 2 and the rom used identifies one partition as the increased memory (like a virtual memory) and the other as a regular SD storage memory
I hope you get the idea and understand me.
