[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
Hello,

I would like to find an app, which can lock with password the wifi and mobile data connections.

Yes, I would like to keep my connections always on, because my Internet is unlimited and if somebody stole my Tablet (P5100) and turn off these connections, I can't find it.

I tried a lot of App lock software, but nothing worked. I still can turn them off with the shortcuts under the clock.

Thanks your help!

Avast has an option to force gps and data

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
The problem is that I already have Antivirus app (Eset Antivirus) with account till 2014, so I can't change the Antivirus now.

I need a standalone app for this thing.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] JediNinjafication:
What's more important to you? A few bucks on an antivirus app or a few hundred for a new device? Sometimes it's cheaper to waste an app for long term. That or you could encrypt device

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*

But...check this one...Haven't used all don't know. I just went to play store and searched anti theft

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.oneos.antitheft

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
You are right, but first I would like to find a solution with keep ESET. After this, of course change the antivirus app.

But maybe a software can lock the connection settings...nobody who bought app to find the device if it stolen thinking about what happen if the thief turn off the internet and the mobile network? Because this is the base of this problem.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] JediNinjafication:
And i saw Cerberus..hear people stand by it. Has free trial

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
Yes, Cerberus is my fav. But the problem with it tha same as at others: if the thief can turn off the mobile network, mobile data and wifi, that not working the software.

That's why i would like to lock these options.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] JediNinjafication:
As i said..avasr has the features you seek

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
Yes, I tested it, but only works with rooted tablets.

I don't wan't to root it, because Service provider (Vodafone) will declain it to repair, if it has got any problem.

It's just a 2 weeks old P5100.

I need an app which is not need root to force mobile data connection.

Blocking Apps Internet Connection & Different "Services"

Rooted device needet!

I use combination of

Droidwall (to block general Internet Access divided in App XY Wlan (y/n) Mobile (y/n)

Available from Market

Using as last barrier in cause of LBE is tricked out :fingers-crossed:

LBE Security (blocks different things per App: contacts,SMS,Location, WLAN, Mobile...)

Copied .apk from my HTC DesireHD to Tablet and installed manually ;)

---------- Post added at 12:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:31 PM ----------

Ups, overread the Password thing...

Don't know if LBE has it as feature - i don't need this really...
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
Thanks Captain Blackbird, but as I wrote before, I don't want to root my tablet,

just "lock" the turn on/off mobile data and wifi functions.

Overall, if I can "lock" three functions: wifi, mobile data and turn off/restart/airplane mode functions,

than no easy way before the thief and Cerberus can protect my tablet.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] JediNinjafication:
What are you running? Jb? Ics? In jb there are profiles you can set up kind of like in a computer. You could just make a profile blocking access to those features and make it default automatically in boot.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
ICS

How can I do it?
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] JediNinjafication:
No dice. Need jelly bean.

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
Understand. I tried everything, I can setup password to modify Settings, but the shortcuts under the clock still working,

so I can still turn on/off everything without open Settings.
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] JediNinjafication:
Can i ask why you don't want to root? You can stay stock.

*Shaolin Shadowboxing*

---------- Post added at 02:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:00 PM ---------

Deleted...wrong thread
[Galaxy Tab 2 Themes and Apps] maddionmax:
Solution found!

Need two apps:

- Tasker (need a few cents)

- App Lock (free)

In Tasker possible to set between in two times (00:00-23:59) processed. I set that in every 2 minutes (this is the minimum interval) check the wifi and mobile data and connect to it.

- App lock protect the uninstall, to modify settings and open/steup the Tasker.

It works perfectly, if somebody turn off the connection in two minutes will work again.

Now Cerberus can find the stolen/lost tablets.

Thanks for everyone!

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mgs333:
In my quest to see why my battery drains so much during idle (3-4%/hour), using GSam Battery Monitor, I find Maps wakes the phone constantly.

I have 'location reporting' from within maps turned off, and location history turned off, latitude location sharing is turned off also.

I do have Google's Location Service turned on so I can use Google Now, and also have GPS satellites and Location & Google Search checked. But I don't see why Location Service would make Maps wake my phone so often (pretty much 1x every minute)

Is this normal? Or is something not right?

P.S. Yes, I know it "only" drained 2% since I unplugged it 1.2 hours ago but it's the first time this has ever happened and as soon as I took the snapshots, it dropped to 97% right away.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
I have lots of wakes from Maps too. Likely because you're using Google Location Services and are using Google Now, which needs to know your location.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] automaddux:
It is normal. when you check it off try to find it in your running processes, you won't find it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Eddie1506:
It stopped doing that to me when I turned off location tracking in Latitude settings in Google Maps.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alf_malf:
Yes this is the answer :)

Go in Maps ->Settings->Position settings and disable background update position
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mgs333:
This is my map - settings - location settings screenshot. everything is disabled already.

Eddie1506: where do I change settings in Latitude?

Automaddux: you mean I have to turn off Google Location Service (and in effect Google Now)? :(

Thanks everyone!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Carbajal3009:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tgyberg:
I leave GPS off unless I need it. That stopped the wake locks for me.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Eddie1506:
I was referring to those settings on your screenshot. When I turned off everything there, it stopped waking up the device.

But, those settings work for me since I don't use Latitude and Google Now is not usable here in Croatia anyhow.

Sorry :(
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Run L1ke H3LL:
I've had 310 in three hours. Frustrating.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mgs333:
so it's google location services that causes the extreme amount of wakes. so I have to make a decision, whether to enable Location Services and Google Now or live without it. In the end, it seems like the battery life doesn't suffer that much, so I think I'll keep it on...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] isinisterx:
I keep my Google now turned off because I'm all about battery life. But other people may have different thoughts

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Elite49:
Well first, their working again but I'd love to know why they stopped working for so long. Had my phons in hand, went to go put on floor but instead it wanted to go para sailing without a chute. Smashed into metal frame and bounced across floor. Everything worked except the capacitive buttons until about 10 minutes ago when they just started to work again. Anyone know why they took so long to start working again, after several reboots?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThomasDK:
Jelly Bean for yakjuxw is rolling out now, but mine will not install.

I have used the Google framework services "trick" to get and download the update 3 times now.

It downloads 160,3 mb, confirms and restarts for install. Then the Google logo shows for about 10 seconds and then just a restart again without installation. No error messages or anything.

4.0.4, yakuxw.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Have you rooted the device, flashed a custom recovery, flashed a radio or changed any system files (fonts, mods, themes)?

All of these things (and many more) will cause the update to fail.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThomasDK:
No, it is totally stock and not rooted.

Seems weird to me - can it somehow download a wrong update file?

It does not even show the red Android on the first reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ThomasDK:
Also it seems, that the phone is unable to go into Recovery. Pressing both volume buttons and power and then selecting Recovery modes gets me to the same thing: The white google logo on black screen, and then a auto reboot to normal phone operation.

Can Recovery get broken in any way and thus also prevent the update?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jammo:
I am expieriencing the exact same problem. Recovery seems to be corrupted and cannot enter it. This cause installation of update impossible. We need help here.

Is flashing to yakju will fix recovery mode?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
Try manually flashing the stock recovery. You'll need an unlocked bootloader for that though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jammo:
I have fixed my problem by flashing yakju. I have used this method: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1787503&highlight=yakju

Now i will get OTA updates from Google instead from Samsung because i had yakjuux firmware since my phone was orginally from Bell. Yay!

I sent mine in for repair.

Received it back with re-flashed software, and it's ok again.

I've encountered a similar problem with my Galaxy Note, what i did was flash a stock Gingerbread ROM with PC Odin, re-root my device and flash my desired rom.

If the increased binary counter bother you, there is always Triangle Away (if the app support your device)

Well increased binary counter is still better than an really costly paper weight

My guess is that topic could be of interest for people which wants to go back to GB after testing ICS RUU.

My doubt is shall I first unlock the phone (it is still stock) or go straight to ICS by RUU.

Maybe, I do not have to unlock it at all, since I intend to use RUU for ICS and in case I want to revert back to GB I will use RUU for GB.

Is this right way?

Can I go back to GB with original RUU after ICS?
