mult Location? - Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 Questions & Answers

is there any way for me to simulate two different locations on redmi 7? or for example, I use a cloned app, and I use a third app to change my location, but when I use this app, all other apps use the same location, I was wondering if there is anything I can do to choose which app will use this one change, or some other way of simulating other individual locations?

If your a developer please read

On android, is it possible to have an app limit another apps of certain services? (like for example if i had "app A" that i wanted, but it requires gps or access to my contacts to install, and (app A) has nothing to do with those [like if a wallpaper app required access to my personal info], would it be possible for an app to limit "App A" of services and take away its ability to use the undesired service?) i guess im asking if this is plausible or not... If it is, Do you know anyone who would develop this app? I bet i could get a lot of users supporting this idea.... (A lot of Users want the ability to do this) I bet this app would be a huge hit, and a must have for most knowledgeable users...
Thanks for Reading
There already is one. The power control widget that comes with your phone can turn gps on/off, along with brightness, WiFi, and account syncing along with a few other things.

I literally mean limiting service to an app.
So more like a firewall for apps to stop them accessing different resources?
Well, yeah. When I first used the power control widget, my GPS, WiFi, and Sync was on because of Google Maps. Occasionally, when I download a new app, GPS or WiFi will turn on and I just turn them off. You could also try whitelist/blacklist apps which might be able to help you.

[Q] Third Party Launcher Themes

I'm busy teaching myself to make themes for Go Launcher, but I guess my question applies to all 3rd party launchers that have theme capabilities. I need to find a way to get the package name for each application on my phone (and other commonly used applications) so that I can assign custom icons for each one. I know you can get the name from each packages AndroidManifest.xml but these don't always work, and in the case of built in applications (like the Motorola Media Gallery) I have no access to the apk itself.
To be a bit more clear, here is an example:
for Skype the package name is:
com.skype.raider
but the icon gets assigned to:
com.skype.raider.ui.SplashScreenActivity
(i got this from a tutorial, but they don't say where they get their info)
Check the /data/data folder. The folder names there might be helpful.

[Q] Library to record user interaction with my app

I have a small app. And for testing, I want to record what people do in the app. What I mean, I would like to log every button press, swap etc in my app, so later I can do most popular "scenarios" using UIautomator for testing.
Is there any library for that? I have tried Google, but there was only some B2B company, and UIautomator uses adb for capturing events.
Have you tried using the Google Analytics API? This should be exactly what you are looking for.

The most straightforward way I can think of with the SDK is just to make some subclasses of things like
Code:
View.OnClickListener
and do some custom logging in there. Then use them in place of the standard ones.
But unless you have some custom data analysis tools setup, you probably won't get much out of the data. Google Analytics doesn't have event funnels AFAIR.

Multiple Instance of the Same App

How can I run more than two instance of the same app at once?
If I right click on the app icon, and select "make a copy", it allows me to run two instances of the app, but no more.
I never seen make a copy option that's cool. I would like different versions of the same app

Remote Shutter for Wear OS

Hi All,
TL,DR: I'm looking for a remote shutter for any cam on any android phone similar to the one on Mi Bands. No the remote cameras with companion apps that we can find in play store.
I've just got a brand new TicWatch E3. So far the watch is great, everything what I've expected. There's only 1 gap I don't know how to cover.
I had a Xiaomi MiBand 5 before and is has a great feature, a remote shutter you can use with ANY opened cam on you phone, you just open the camera on your phone, tap the shutter on the band and the pic was taken.
I know that Google Camera does that from wear OS but for Pixel Phones only (it does not work on my Redmi Note 8 Pro with Pixel Experience rom and gcam mod) but I couldn't find anything similar to do it with any phone and camera as the MiBand does. Al I have found are remote cams apps that use their own companion cam app in the phone, but for those, the picture quality is no good at all.
Does anyone has an idea or recommendation to achieve this from wear os?
im looking for the same the only thing i could find that can do it was https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kemasdimas.wristcamera&hl=en&gl=US which isnt really what i want as it shows the camera screen on the phone.
If anyone else has any other suggestions please let me know.
I have done it using the following apps:
Tasker (to run the 'Take Photo' action
Bubble Cloud to trigger the above
There is a world of usefulness to be had using those two Apps and Android phone / Wear OS
Try Camera One. Though you have to install the companion app, it only uses it for communication with the watch. You dont even have to have it open. Once you launch the watch app, it automatically uses the camera, even if the phone is off. To get full features though, i think its about $4.

Interesting, could you share how to do this and what parameters have you used? Thanks

Install Tasker
Create Task that uses 'Take Photo' (you can find by typing in search box when creating the task) you can choose from Front / Back camera in the settings of this 'Take Photo' Action
Install Bubble Cloud from link above
Ensure installed on both watch & phone
Use the 'Wear Cloud Editor' section to create a watch screen
To launch the Task you created above, click the '+' button in 'Wear Cloud Editor' and select option to 'Add Tasker bubble (icon looks like a cog) and choose the 'Take Photo' (or whatever you named it) task, you can also choose icon / colour / transparency here
Add the screen created above to a watch tile (think it's called 'Favourites Cloud' or similar from memory?
Swipe to tile and press on the icon you chose to launch the task.
Hope make sense?
Looking for something similar, except that I need to trigger my GoPro Hero 8 shutter from my Galaxy Watch 4, ideally directly (i.e. not via phone), and ideally using BTLE not WiFi. Any suggestions?
(There's this, but that's out of my price range for a mere shutter control app.)
