Hey

Has anyone found a quality application that once its installed on a phone it will:

remain invisible to the user

record/send all SMS, MMS, and possibly GTalk/other

record/send all phone calls (voice)

everything sent to a single access point

potentially control how/when sent to force over wifi at specific time, etc

Any app you have used that does some/most of this, can you please link it for me? paid or free is ok.

I thank you for your help and yes this will be used on phones I own and have full rights over with the user's knowledge.
[General Topics] AFAinHD:
This is so wrong. I don't think this is allowed. I don't think anyone can post a link to an app like that, even if you have the rights. Someone else could use it in the wrong way.
[General Topics] superchunkwii:
Its to monitor my children's phone. No different than the monitoring software on my PCs. They know it will be installed and when they are a bit older and more mature, it will be removed.
[General Topics] lowandbehold:

I am pretty sure nothing out there offers call recording. But, this has most of what you want.
[General Topics] AFAinHD:
Okay well you can't get an app like that I can guarentee you that. No app can record voice calls, not even with root permission, it is due to android limitations. I don't believe MMS either, but don't take my word on that. But the thing that makes me feel pretty suspicious is that you say that your kids will know the app is on the device and you have their permission, but why do you want the app to be hidden from the devices user? If you want to be able to monitor their phones well, install androidlost on their devices and set it up to an account that you control. I'm sorry but I will not post any links to any secret monitoring apps because I do not approve of them, and they are illegal without permission, and in all truth just because you say you have permission, doesn't prove to me you have permission, you could be lying to me and you want to put this on some random friends phone to monitor his/her phone. Sorry I just can't be sure.
[General Topics] superchunkwii:
Only reason to be invisible is so they cannot simply remove it.
[General Topics] AFAinHD:
Tell them not to remove the app, and if they do the website will inform you because it will stop receiving information from the phone, and then you can just take away their phone.
[General Topics] superchunkwii:
Either way... any app that has the monitoring and you know is not a virus, etc is really what I'm looking for.
[General Topics] AFAinHD:
Androidlost.
[General Topics] AlexWekell:
This is about 80% of what you're talking about.

It can do everything in bold:

remain invisible to the user

record/send all SMS, MMS, and possibly GTalk/other

record/send all phone calls (voice)

<- Call log only

everything sent to a single access point

potentially control how/when sent to force over wifi at specific time, etc'

It's the best security app for Android.
[General Topics] lowandbehold:
I think my post got lost..
[General Topics] AFAinHD:
It does not remain fully invisible to the user. It still shows up under the application list.
[General Topics] superchunkwii:
No, I saw it. Thank you. I have been reading that thread actually to see the overall likes/dislikes of the app.
[General Topics] AFAinHD:
That app should be called evil phone spy. tracks internet history?? no privacy allowed.
[General Topics] zelendel:
No matter what the reasons XDA does not condone this type of privacy invasion.

Hi,

After switching from 1A to 2A wall USB chargers I've never looked back.

Now i am looking for a USB car charger which can output 2A for under $10.

I found a few on ebay but they have 2 USB output with combined 2A output (1A per USB port).

I am looking for one with only 1 USB port with 2A output.

Let me know what others are using.

Thanks a lot guys :)
[General Accessories] sc0tty8:
I've been looking off and on at one of these:

I guess I can't post links, but it is amazon item #/B00511PS3C

I have a 1a unit in the car that I use when I travel and a larger unit I use when I get to my room, not had a dire need for a 2a in the car as of yet.
[General Accessories] geronemo:
Thanks for the link, but that's the problem. With 4G on my phone eats battery like crazy, that's why i am looking for a 2A charger to keep charging it while i am travelling.

[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swehes:
First of all. I'm not a developer. I consider myself a power user.

With that said. I do love the idea of try Ubuntu OS on my SGS3. And when Canonical announced that they are bringing their Ubuntu to mobile phones, I became very excited.

My question is this. How many developers and power users are interested in getting their hands on Ubuntu OS to try to get it working on the devices they own? As an individual, I have no power to go to Canonical and tell them that I am interested in Ubuntu OS for mobile phones. However if we, as the XDA family of users and developers, among the biggest of hobby developers out there, and probably one of the biggest Beta testers you could find, connected with Canonical, there is a possibility that we could get their attention.

I for one would love to see an image for the S3. As a dual boot or just plain Ubuntu on the phone.

So here is my proposal. I would like to create a petition for XDA to contact Canonical on behalf of the members of the XDA forums, to offer our services to Canonical as Beta testers and to make Ubuntu compatible with our devices that we have in our possession. Android is great, but we still don't have the full power of our devices the way we are individuals are yearning for. Ubuntu to me is representing that freedom.

Your comments and thoughts are appreciative.

Well from what I have read Galaxy Nexus users will be able to install Ubuntu for Android on their device in the coming weeks, and with Ubuntus schedule I am guessing late February. Once the installer is out it will only be a matter of time before there are unofficial images for the SGS3 etc.

One thing I am looking forward to exploring is the porting of Android APKs to the Ububtu software.

Anyone going through the same thoughts?

I would say do it.....i did it a few years a go.....en will never turn back to windows.....the nice thing off ubuntu is ypu easly make a dualboot with windows on your pc...so yoi dont have to give op windows directly....after a while youl see that ubuntu is faster saver and very easy to use....and you start to use windows more less.....then you can decided if you completly delete lacky windows from your pc......with introducing ubuntu phone you will get a complete new experience...because you can use the apps on your phone aswell on you pc...and thats awesome.....

I think the longest period ive ever used Ubuntu after installing it was for a month after which i started getting frustrated due to the unavailability of certain programs that i used..not sure what release it was but it was at around the same time the iPhone 3G was released. I could get iTunes to work on it but it had to run through Wine and even then i had issues with the itunes recognizing the phone. Honestly, i felt like i had to go through 10 different steps to perform a simple task whereas on the windows it was as easy as installing and just running the program..quick and very convenient. But im sure those issues have long been tackled so ill still give it another try..i hope this time it would be worth it. Thanks for the input.

I'd like to see it on my Xperia sola. I think it would be great;)

And I don't know, but if it's a native OS it would work a few times more quickly that Android which is using a dalvik emulator. So it seems to be a great experience.
[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kschumake83:
Not that I think it will make much a difference, but I did sign your petition. Source will be out soon and our guys over here will be all over it. I miss Ubuntu dearly, my companies software will only run from windows and worse yet internet explorer, so I cant wait for a couple of our awesome devs. to take a crack at this.

Hopefully Ubuntu for phones will make an even bigger hit than android and get more Americans running Ubuntu. Then maybe big corporations and companies will stop forcing its employees to use Micro$oft products.

[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Segnale007:
I'm not pessimist, I rather don't believe this is going to make any sense at all, at least in the western marketing.

Carriers and OEM's will never agree to use something that's entirety open, and good luck with getting devs interested in developing for a new OS whose future is highly unpredictable.

Though this is a great project that will seat well on low handset in third world countries.

At least this is my point of view.
[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jvillejoe:
OEM's(Dell, Lenovo etc.) are already using it lol. Android is open, and carriers lock it down, and skin it to their liking. The same will more than likely apply for Ubuntu phone OS. What do third world countries have to do with this? Because Ubuntu is free? Meaning that poor countries, mixed with a free OS, will make Ubuntu flourish? Ok, I'll agree with that, lol! I think this combination of all devices is great! And, I look forward to seeing them grow. I embraced Android with open arms. I will be doing the same with Ubuntu and have been, as I am running it solely on my computer, and have never looked back at Windows. The same went for my phone. It once ran Windows, but now, it is solely running Android. :p I look forward to seeing what this brings to the table. :)
[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TingTingin:
A truly open source OS can't survive (or at least be profitable) with all apples closed offness they are still the most profitable company in THE WORLD even though Android sells way more devices they can't even come close to apples insane profit margins and android isn't even full blown open

multiple companies come out promising a open os but then they have to deal with carriers manufacturers politics red tape beauracy all that shiznit and what u end up with and what was intened end up being completely different so no matter how Ubuntu preaches now I wanna see the end product and what actually materializes from these lofty claims of a "truly open" OS

[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swehes:
First off. Ubuntu is the OS like Windows is an OS. The company behind Ubuntu is Canonical. They make their money by selling services and support for Ubuntu. And they must be seeing profits or they wouldn't be going the way they are.

Second. How do you measure success? If money is everything that counts, yes Apple is an amazing company as they are making an insane amount and have a lot of it stashed for rainy days (if that is ever going to happen). However as they continue down their lone ranger path, they are antagonizing other companies, inhibiting innovation but their continual lawsuits not to mention the idiotic patents that are continually being filed, I would not rank Apple that high.

Now I don't know how Canonical are doing in this. But a company that likes working with the community to develop a product, and make it available for free to the regular joe, and then work with enterprises to make the money, maybe publish a book here and there, and most likely not making a huge profit, but focusing on people instead of money, that is the type of company I like to support.

I think money is important, if you use it to do good. I like WIN-WIN situations, I scratch your back knowing that some day that it will be returned because we are friends. By working together everyone can benefit. Isn't that what is important? Building relationships that lasts.

I can imagine that true open source probably can't survive because that would require people to instead of looking into their own pockets, would work towards helping others. And by so doing help yourself. In the world today, there is a lot of entitlements, selfishness, and greed.

However I think that Canonical will be successful as they integrate developers, beta testers, regular users, and hardware manufacturers that can see the bigger picture, rather than their own pocket books.

I like the definition of Ubuntu on Wikipedia. That is the philosophy that Canonical have for Ubuntu. Just Maybe XDA will become a nice part of that philosophy.

Whyd u respond? Ubuntu is the os okay I sometimes use Ubuntu as the name of the company thanks for correcting (post should've ended there) I don't know why I got that long speech all I stated was facts I wasn't bashing Ubuntu at all (sorry if u thought so I actually love the "idea" of it) also that whole apple paragraph Y! I personally don't like apple or the way they do business screw that I hate apple so I don't really know why I got that whole song and dance about y people may not like them (I already have my reasons memorised lol) I said that their profitable cuz well they are I hear it all the time its very annoying but its the truth so they must be doing sum right I don't like them at all but I would rank them very high in terms of success I mean seriously they don't give a crap about the people as long as the money keeps coming also the average consumer thinks of apple as well great some of my friends dont know diddly squat about smart phones but they want an iPhone and that's not all every time I turn on the TV and watch a show guess what see someone using an iPhone simple jokes that people crack sometimes where they sarcastically say a Nokia xxxx (the old 1s) is better than an iPhone I mean its crazy <-----that's how I measure success

And my reservations are this is exactly what Google said they were gonna do when they bought android its gonna be open source they said you do what u want with it they said then came locked bootloaders rooting voiding your warranty companies trying to make it harder to root and some even tryna get rooting iilegal android still came out the other end open source I'd give it a 7 in general openness since some devices are more open than others hopefully Ubuntu hits a ten or at least a nine lol

I hope this clarifies my stance

Apologize for preaching to the choir. :) I think my point is that for Ubuntu to get out there, Canonical should reach out to the XDA community and get them more involved. And I agree from the perspective that a true open source most likely won't be able to survive unless people starts thinking about more than money. Nothing wrong in making money, or wanting to make money as long do good with it. That is where the blessings come from.

And yes. Thanks for being a good voice at XDA. :good: I guess there are certain subjects I like a lot which is more or less,

1) Liking when people/businesses are helping other people/business in win-win situations.

2) Strong dislike for Apple and it's policies.

3) Strong like for true open source such as Ubuntu (google is loosing it's flavor being in bed with the US Government)

4) Great dislike for government putting their dirty fingers where they don't belong

5) Like discussing/debating things

@swehes

Well described.

I agree with you and I think that we need to support projects liku Ubuntu phone, for the global benefit.

Having free and reliable good performing OS on phone compatibile with other devices is something that we should fully support and apreciate.

I guess some of you have tried and have used Ubuntu desktop version on PC platform and then you know that Canonical have done great job to make linux closer to the people in everyday use.
[Ubuntu Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blackout23:
As for switching from Windows 8 to Ubuntu. Go for it! If you like a more traditional desktop try out Linux Mint Cinnamon-Edition, which is Ubuntu under to hood with all the benefits ( Software Center etc.) but different Desktop. Ubuntu/Mint are good ways to get into Linux. Just don't constantly think that everything should be like on Windows. I started using Ubuntu in 2009 and switched to Arch Linux in 2011 which is more of a poweruser distro. Distros like Ubuntu and Mint which are designed to be user friendly give you a glimpse on what Linux has to offer. If you spend some time learning the ins and outs of Linux you'll be greatly rewarded. I like Linux for reasons now I would never have imagined as a Windows user. Winows makes you interested in very superficial things but the power is under the hood. This is coming from someone who can't program sh!t and doesn't look like your typical basement-dweller.

I will definately switch to Ubuntu Phone OS with my Galaxy Nexus. I only need some basic apps mainly for communication like GMail, Facebook etc. and all of that seems to be there. I can live without 699.995 Apps out of the 700.000 Apps that Android has to offer. I'm more interested in having a full blown real Linux system on my phone with a constant 6 Month release cycle. Ubuntu Phone OS looks like a great platform to develop for with HTML 5, full OpenGL, C/C++, Qt which give you the ability to write one program and it has simply one UI for every formfactor Tablet, Phone or Desktop. Not only does the Smartphone turn into a desktop when docked to a monitor with keyboard and mouse it also is a Mediacenter with Ubuntu TV interface.
