[Q] Problem with Market/Wildfire

Hiya - I have the Desire and just got Wildfire for daughter - she is delighted-me less so as we have switched from PAYG to contract and I do NOT want her to go over her minutes, so have tried in vain to get the Mobile Account Checker from the Android Market. It shows up on my phone on the market, but not on hers! I tried scanning the barcode thing with her phone - not available. Tried with mine and bingo it is there. Any clues? I have it installed on my phone, but really need it for her!

Did you try to install via the website with Fastinstall installed and activated?
Just syncing with appbrain doesn't work.

1. download and install appbrain from market
2. download, install, and open fast web install from market
3. follow on screen instructions to let fast web install integrate into appbrain
4. visit www.appbrain.com search for your application and hit the "install" button on the appbrain website

5. the application should then be magically pushed to your htc wildfire,
if not: check that wifi or 3g is enabled. if it still doesn't work, try "manage my apps" -> "sync with appbrain" in the appbrain application and wait a few seconds

Sync doesn't work since it opens the market page or tries to.

i guess you're mixing it with "perform installs"
i noticed that sometimes i click install on the website, but nothing happens. even when wifi is enabled ... so i did the steps @ #5 and it worked then ... just a personal workaround. nothing official

i found a topic at g4 tattoo
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=645286
like simulate screen resolution higher.
but it need root first.
i m not sure how to do root on g8.
maybe anyone who already root can try it out.

[APP] iptraf 3.0.0 for Android (with APK Installer)

Introduction:
Here's the classic iptraf for Android!

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Installation:
You need to have a rooted phone and busybox installed on /system/xbin
You also need to have about 1Mb free on your /system partition.
Usage:
To use iptraf, you need to either have an SSH server on your phone (for example DroidSSHd) and connect using Putty from your PC, or you can use the Terminal Emulator (please see attached screenshots).
Any terminal emulator application should work, but iptraf requires at least 80×24 characters screen so for smaller screens you might need to reduce the font size a lot to make it fit.
The price is payed for the installer and the effort to have iptraf cross-compiled for Android, since iptraf is distributed under GPL license. Put in a different way, you are just buying me a beer for making it easier for you to have iptraf on your phone!
Filters:
If you decide to connect using SSH, the trouble is that iptraf will show the SSH traffic too – something that you might not want to have there constantly updating.
It would seem intuitive to create a filter which excludes SSH port from the traffic, but once you do that, iptraf will not show anything else; iptraf actually has an “implicit no-display” policy meaning that once you apply a filter (include / exclude) nothing else is displayed, even if the filter is Exclude mode. You will need to have an additional Include entry added to the filter (after the Exclusion entry taking care of the SSH port) where everything is 0 and all the ports have an Y next to them. Please check attached screenshots as an example on how the entries of the filter should look like.
Please do not forget to “Apply filter…” every time you change something in the filters. X saves the filter, Ctrl-X cancel the changes, but even if you press X, the filter is not yet applied unless you Apply the filter.

Could you please make the sources of the iptraf binary available?
(preferably on github)

1 Euro to download from Android Market? That sucks

Need help about this weird issue

hi everyone,
I have this issue: zygote is asking for root permission under S7 Edge 6.0.1 superSU Pro 2.79-SR3 and I want to get rid of it, keeps popping every 30 to 40 min. Any help would be great

That is weird. Zygote is an Android daemon that is used to launch apps. It shouldn't be requesting su permissions from the user. Do you give it permission or do you deny? Are you on a custom ROM?

thanks for responding, I'm on stock Rom and I allways deny permission without any issue in launching apps, everything is smooth without errors. I did some researches on that case, and I've found that it was impossible for Zygot to ask for root permission, so I guess it's just a malware, but it's not detected with Avast Pro, I'm really confused

Do you install apps from anywhere other than the playstore? Maybe you need to wipe and reinstall stock through TWRP. It can be hard to find malware by hand.

Yep I Have some alternative shops, I suspected that they were the gate from wich the malware came from so I deleted all of them except Aptoid, but the Evil is already inside now. BTW a wipe is not even to considered since I don't have time to reinstall and reconfigure more than 30 handy tool apps (drive droid, Exposed and its modules, lucky patcher and many more .....). thanks for caring, anyway I'll try to uninstall suspected apps and see.

Good luck.

Device owner already set before purchasing?

I did a factory reset and wiped the cache, several times in a row last night, because I got sick of a few things and wanted to run a test.
I wanted to install IceBox Apps Freezer. You don't need root, so long as you set it to be 'Device Owner' using ADB shell:
Code:
adb shell dpm set-device-owner com.catchingnow.icebox/.receiver.DPMReceiver
The app says to remove all accounts associated with the device in order for that to work. On our tablets (all models) this isn't possible. So I had to find out a way that would clear all 'device owners.' Google itself is very specific about how this is to be done: Factory reset.
Caution: If provisioning has already started, affected devices must be factory reset first.

Since I did that, and didn't register the tablet with Amazon, Managed Provisioning shouldn't apply. However, I followed all the steps, made sure WiFi was and still is off and went into ADB and this is what I got in return:

Trying to set device owner but device is already provisioned

Um what? Is that even legal?

have you seen anyone having success with Amazon devices?
it's possible they didn't include this feature

As far as I can tell, through all possible methods to gain Device Owner, Amazon has provisioned the devices, en mass, before they are even purchased. Likely done with NFC which is included on the Fires, but is another piece of software Amazon blocks us from accessing and or using. Even a factory reset and attempt to add device owner on language selection screen failed.
IMHO this really should be illegal. What the hell did we actually buy then if we don't own these?

SM-A510F : Forgotten lock pattern

Hey guys,
I'm posting here as a last resort before a factory reset.
By the way, let me first say that I'm sorry to post this here, as I know it's SO stupid, what's happening.
I had the same lock pattern for 2 years now, never had a problem.
Last week, it just fell out my mind completely. I've been trying for 4 days straight to remember it.
It's quite a complicated one, with the pattern tracing deactivated so I can't remember the shape and my thumb tried with its motor memory but to no avail :x
The thing is, I extensively use the notepad stock app (Samsung Notes ? Android Notes ?) and I have a **** TON of info I REALLY don't want to lose. And it's not on the SD card, ofc.
I don't care much about the rest, to be honest.
Fun fact, I only synced contacts via the android sync function.
So how can I either remove the lock pattern or access my phone files with an explorer on my computer (I guess I can find a memory file for the notepad somewhere), knowing that :
- Not rooted
- USB debugging not activated
- Not registered with Samsung account
- Android version is the latest available in France for an SM-A510F as I do all updates
I can provide as much as I can to prove my ownership of the phone if needed.
Thank you for reading and maybe for helping.
You have absolutely every right to laugh to my (dumb) face.
EDIT :
Just tried something else. Booted in recovery to try an ADB command.
Since Windows didn't recognize the phone in recovery mode, I selected the option "Load package with ADB" or something like that.
Now the phone was listed in devices on ADB and I tried this : adb shell rm /data/system/gesture.key
Result : error.
Great.
So since the phone was unresponsive to any button, I waited and there was a timeout on the package load.
BUT NOW...
I have a blue screen that says "Error!" and it's completely unresponsive.
GREAT.
I'm off to work, read you soon.
XOXO
