Hi,
is it possible to use the android calendar without a google account?
Can we mod it to use it without google? I mean mod source code and compile it new?
Could some one do it?
Can i install a google account on defy without internet?
Mod?
Tool?
Hack??
Big thanks for help!
Bye
I think you can, but I haven't tried having removed the stock Calendar app already. BTW, there are some alternative calendar programs that don't use the built-in database, such as Fliq.
You can always change the codes yourself, but from the way you raised the question I don't think you know how to do (and nor do I), and I doubt if anyone is interested in doing this. Of course, if you're willing to pay a reasonable bounty then it's another question...
Finally, an Internet connection is needed for setting up a Google account.
Maybe if you tell us what you actually want to do, then we can give some more useful suggestions.
Hi, thanks for answer.
I only know jorte, how has got his own database.
All other software usere the google account.
Id like to have a google free sync android, which i must not show every time, if it has synced with google server.
Please, can you tell me which devices have got a own calendar which not use the google calendar?
The google calendar looks realy nice.
Why no one want a google free and without sync calender?
Btw i cant mod the code.
Iam not a coder, only admin.
Can i activate the calendar without a google account?
so that i can use a second software how uses the calendera database?
Big thanks
You can activate a Google account without syncing your Calendar, Contacts and such with Google. They can be disabled in Settings.
If you want to go a bit further, just remove the respective *Sync.apk from /system/app (search for posts on how to remove system apps) provided that you've rooted your device.
This is all?
But is the system app *sync.apk only for google sync?
Or can i even sync with mypohone explorer any more?
Yes.
Yes.
Solution?
Hello,
I had the same problem and i found out that Jorte ( found on android market ) did do the thrick for me. It is pretty standalone. Notice that of you want notifications ( sounds etc ) in Jorte that you need to configure that in the original agenda of defy.
Hope this is your solution, regardings Rick
It IS possible
Hi,
I have CM7 installed, at first without GoogleApps. Then it is not possible to use the native calendar program. But, if flash gapps, bot NOT login or create a new account, the calendar app works fine, though.

Hi, how have you installed CM7 on Defy?
I found out another trick on my SE LWW. After installing CM9.1 with GApps i replaced the Calendar.apk with native SemcCalendar.apf from official Firmware, but FC. After replacing google's Calendar.apk back i was able to use in normally.
Please ask all questions in the Q&A section. Thread moved there.
My girlfriend and I are using ChatOn for chatting, sometimes WhatsApp. She uses the Galaxy S2. She thinks that her ex-boyfriend is checking/stalking her, while I have said that it would be nearly impossible that he could actually see the messages we exchange. He probably can access her router at home (he installed it). We were using ChatOn (instead of WhatsApp) thinking that he would not know that, or would be familiair with that (it is not that popular over here).
This night, 2am, I received 2 smileys in the ChatOn chat, from my girlfriend (portraying a spitting smiley, which we never use, and we were talking angry and frustrated about the ex-boyfriend). My girlfriend says she cannot have send those 2 smileys. She would need to have logged into her Phone (long password) and she was definitely asleep at that time.
My questions to the biggest experts here:
- Can somebody really get into Chaton, and send messages on your behalf, remotely ? The ChatOn accounts are not linked to anything we do not have Samsung accounts and we have not given access to any other account within ChatOn (I know it would be possible to use webChatOn, but you should give permission for that I think from within the ChatOn Mobile App)
- The same for WhatsApp ?
- Everything send through WiFi is encrypted in the App itself, so text would not be visible from the router ? You can only see encrypted data ? And it would be impossible to send something from the account through the router ?
- Would there be any explanation for the smileys ?
We are getting quite nervous ....
Unfortunately yes..
It is possible that her bf may have access to her whatsapp by mac spoofing.He may know the mac address of her phone.
MAC spoofing is a technique for changing a factory-
assigned Media Access Control (MAC) address of a
network interface on a networked device. The MAC
address is hard-coded on a network interface
controller (NIC) and cannot be changed. However,
there are tools which can make an operating system
believe that the NIC has the MAC address of a user's
choosing. The process of masking a MAC address is
known as MAC spoofing. Essentially, MAC spoofing
entails changing a computer's identity, for any
reason, and it is relatively easy.
The changing of the assigned MAC address may allow
the bypassing of access control lists on servers or
routers , either hiding a computer on a network or
allowing it to impersonate another network device.
MAC spoofing is done for legitimate and illicit purposes
alike.
He might have spoofed his phones mac address and assign hers.This way whatever replies she gets will be received by him......but still the question is that if he knows the mac address
You should change the router config asap. Also.. Does your gf use a ROM installed by the ex? My advice its flash a new fresh ROM and change every app password ,including emails

Quite Possible
Especially for the older versions of chat-on app (2012-12-04 and before), do not use Public WiFi networks. The communication between client and server is not encrypted (whereas Whatsapp encrypts before sending). the Session can easily be intercepted or even spoofed. Though it requires a little Technical skills for Spoofing. But its not impossible. You have to judge it from the Ability of her Ex.
If the Chat On app is the updated one then no need to worry as it uses the AES encryption, but still the files being uploaded/downloaded are not encrypted, and hence can be intercepted.
Change wifi pass... Make it complicated alphanumeric with numbers
Use wpa2psk on wifi
To do an arp spoof he would need to be on the same network. Thus do the above ASAP

I don't think someone can send messages on your behalf but yes your messages could be read very easily. That's the reason why chat apps like Photo4tune are coming up with innovations such as fire messaging and self destruct pics to eliminate the provacy concerns of apps such as whatsapp which sell our data to big shot companies.
identify the pic sent to from whatsapp database
is it possible to identify to whom the pics have been sent to from the database files of someone else ?
@MattRob:
Try Threema instead of WhatsApp or ChatOn, here it would be really impossible to compromise the messages, because it uses real End-to-end encryption.

I think that BF using any softwares to control remotely like android lost, etc,, check any unwanted apps installed on it.
My advice is to install a new ROM, i prefere official roms, and change all passwords set in phone (email,fb,twitter .....), also change router config to avoide any technique of hacking.

I may have hit on something big. It is possible to "jump" into another person's Whatsapp account and send and receive messages and even change settings like profile picture and account name. Initially to set this up, the victim's phone is required but at the end it is not and all this can be done remotely. Both the hacker's and the victim's phones need to be rooted, unfortunately. Use an app like Titanium Backup and backup the victim's whatsapp and get that backup and restore the app data on the hacker phone and open Whatsapp and that's it. To reuse the hacker phone's original whatsapp, a seperate backup of it can be restored.
It is possible to create an application that can be installed in a non-rooted phone, with the ability to root it (applications that can do this merely, already exist) and make an application data copy that can be shared via a network (like the internet) to another party that can use an application (even the same one) that uses this data and jacks (takes-over or 'shares') the Whatsapp account on the device the 'application' was primarily install on.

Whatsapp Hack
Thanks For Whatsapp Hack Remotely
Yes there are ways
There are few ways to achieve this. Changin wifi password with wpa/psk and making sure there is no app that helps x access phone info will make sure that its safe. Read my article to understand the hacking techniques for whatsapp

hi there.
two days ago i got my new s5. i like it and all but all the image storing and online storage is a little much at first. but since my previous phone was stolen and i lost a couple of hundred of fond memories (pictures) i was determined to store them online this time. i set up a dropbox account that seems to come with the phone and i used picasa or whatever google drive calls my online gallery (never used this before).
it's neat and i figured out how to hide online pictures so it serves as a backup.
NOW TO MY PROBLEM:
since everything is new to me here (had sgs2 before) i played around in the gallery that is now largely different. i seem to have set something to the wrong setting because now it doesn't show ANY PICTURES anymore. not from any folder/album. from one second to the other everything was gone (from the gallery). the pictures are all there, though. i can access them with any other app (es file explorer, google pictures, camera, etc.) but i want my gallery back. it says "no items - after you take, record or upload pictures or videos to dropbox, items will be shown in gallery"
this leads me to suspect that i might have switched my gallery to displaying the contents of my EMPTY dropbox account. i don't want this but i am unable to change it back. besides i have an app for dropbox stuffs so why is this feature even integrated?
settings shows me the following:
accounts:
[g] my gmail account
SNS DATA CONTROL:
sync via wifi only [v]
CLOUD SYNC
dropbox sync
tap to sync content
FILTER
filter by
TAGS
tag buddy
off
face tag [_]
above i can only access "Add Account" which brings me to a menu displaying all my accounts (or some): samsung, google, dropbox, facebook
PLEASE HELP ME!
i did not find any help searching because there seems to be a similar problem with people's media storage malfunctioning. i don't believe that is my problem but i tried resetting the media storage anyways. i am sure it is something that i did to hide my pictures. how do i get them back? i don't plan on using a different gallery app but maybe it is the only solution?
regards
L2
------------------------------------
EDIT:
------------------------------------
i actually just installed quickpic and it shows all my pictures which proves to me even further that nothing is wrong with the pictures but just that my gallery is screwed up. how do i unscrew it?
Clear data for gallery app under settings/applications.
I have two questios related to the above
1. There is an item named "Cloud" in the lower part of the account section.
What is it good for?
2. I am using two applications bought thru google play store
one syncs the contact list and
one is supposed to sync photos, downloads, etc.
to my ownCloud server at home.
Both applications work.
However, when the phone turns off because of drained battery or restarts after OTA updates the information for both accounts are gone. Such accounts have to be added again.
Why is this and is there a way to save and restore such account details without using any backup app? Where does Android 4.4.2 store or save such account information?
