Hi, it's getting better and better. Thanks.

Can you fix the function for removing the Cam Shots on the website?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
No Problem. yes, ill do this. Anyway, ill rework the whole frontpage-design the next 5 days and start the android-"client".

:)

do you guys have found any connection issues with the latest version?
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
The connection is fine.

Another thing however: If the gps can not find the location (because phone is indoor e.g.) then the last known location in the phone is shown as the current position. This is wrong. Maybe if the location can not be found, it should display a message or mention that the location is not current.

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:09 PM ----------

Soms additional small things.

The latest version says 14 on the device settings page (Version installed), but you said it is 15.

The Launcher icon remains vissible.

After I click Disable Launcher othing it is still there. Even after reboot of the phone.
[Android Apps and Games] KRiZ-R:
Hi, I still have connection problems.

Also have had a force close of device manager. But I don't know when exactly it happens.

[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thanks. Im working on this issue :)
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
Today I make a theft spy zip file and flash it via CWM. After that I can't disable the GPS. It keep turn on. If I use theftspy as a user app, no issue. Are there any way to correct that issue?

Also after the first log-in it shows sync, I don't like to upload my phone images. How do I disable images upload?

Thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Ill check this issue.

Just press "No" when it ask you to sync.

You can disable Repeat-Commands (And Autosync) in Devicesettings at the website.

Next Update in a few hours which fixes some stuff and added a HTTP Queue (when connection not available wait until its available to process the queued commands)
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
Yes, after disabled the "Repeat Interval" and Repeat GPS, looks like I can turn off the GPS (theftspy as a system app). However I feel there's a connection issue. Looks like at this moment anyone can access the theft spy app without submitting user name and password. If you could fix that issue it's better.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Did you have the "GPS" Website open? It will send a GPS Push every 30 seconds if you have the Site www.theftspy.com/member/modul/gps active in any browser
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
Sometime I open that page. However when I'm facing that issue (unable to turn off GPS), I didn't log-in to the theftspy.com. So I guess it's cause Repeat Interval and Repeat GPS options. Because now I disabled that two options and I can turn off the GPS (now).

Still I face some communication issue. If enabled, Hide TheftSpy option, but still I can see "Device-Management" icon in the app drawer (after several reboots, root also granted ) Also some other options are not working (screenshot, camera) but SMS and call logs tracking working.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Its annoying that the drawer icon is still visible. Its since 2 versions. Ill take a look at this issue.

Screneshot does not work? It require "screencap" or "screenshot". Try with adb if you have one of those two binarys.

Camera is not working? Which device?
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
A few hours ago I clicked Take picture button, but still I can't see images on the theftspy.com cam shots dashboard. I have Galaxy S3 i9300. It's running CM10.1.3 (stable). I can remotely take pictures using Cerberus.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Next update is available which fixes some connection issues again.

Tomorrow ill fix the screenshot stuff,

Edit:

Next version fixes a "Tablet"-issue (which have no simcard)
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
Today I manually updated the app (looks like it's not used automatic update, even if I enabled it web dashboard ).

After I logged in to the theftspy.com it shows this error. "Sorry, device was not connected within 45 seconds. Bad Connection or no Internet?" But at that time I have an active internet connection.

After that I opened the theftspy app on my galaxy s3 and take a picture using web dashboard (using Cam Shots), then it shows following confirm message and successfully uploaded the image, less than 2 minutes.

Device GT-I9300 sent: (October 15, 2013, 4:00 am) - Camera Shot done

However after few minutes ago again I try to take a picture using Cam Shots, but at that time, it failed (with and without closing theftspy app). But at the same time I can see theftspy run in the background (it shows device-management app in the "Settings>apps>running")
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
I still have info "Sorry, device was not connected within 45 seconds. Bad Connection or no Internet?" but as I see all functions works fine...
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Ignore that. Ill rework this feature soon. Same as Dashboard.

I just have some exam on Thursday. I cannot do many work until there.. But dont worry, i have a suprise for all XDA users soon.
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Nice :) So I'm going to finich Polish translation :) I hope it'll be added in 100% to program and your site!
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Codeversion 17 is online.

Changes: Validates Internet on Startup. Works on Tablets now (should hopefully) without simcard.

AND

You can now make TheftSpy as Systemapp in settings! You need to REBOOT after this is done!
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
I've made .settings (storage/extSdCard/.settings) file as you said but it doesn't work :( any suggestions?

Also Accesibility Service switches off all the time :(

GT-I9505 rooted

PS you said that the nevest version is '17' but on your site I see 'Version installed: 16'. should it be like that?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
The proper storage directory is the internalsdcard. Anyway, ill extend it in the next release to look for the file on the external sdcard aswell

Have you made it as systemapp before using accessbility service? If yes, you need to reboot first before using it
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Moved to internal one and still nothing. I tried it before and after setting as system app
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Dont worry. Just wait until the next version tonight.

i do several "checkup" to locate the file.

Are you sure its called ".settings.ini"?

With the dot before?

are you sure it's called "settings.ini?

Are you sure there are NO whitespaces at beginning at end?

Please post the complete file (replace username and password with XXX)
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
autohideui=true

autologin=true

username=xxxx

password=xxxx

And yes, it's called .settings.ini

[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Im testing the current version at the moment.

Its so powerfull now.. unbelievable. You guys will be suprised with the next update. Im pretty sure ;)

Why: Becuase it contains features which has no other app available.
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Will you upload all polish translations to it? I'm going to finish it now :)
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
well...

i got 2 fc this morning...

maybe could be whatsapp live capturing feature related, since i got this 2 fc when i opened whatsapp.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
please send me the .debug log in /sdcard/.debug

and.. the startpage of the polish translaton is not done yet? :)
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
en.php 100%

TheftSpy.com Startpage 30%

strings.xml 100%

I'm doing it but it takes some time. I hope I'll finish it today
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
right on
[Android Apps and Games] pccma:
Can I *PLEASE* have the "grab all messages" option back in whatsapp?
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
what's the difference between grab all and syncronize?

afaik, they do the same
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Synchronize will only sync these parts what are not online yet.

Grab means it grabs the whole database and decrypt it on the server.

Chinese, Hebrew or other charsets not using UTF8 may have problems by transfering to the webserver (when synced). Ill put the grab stuff back in the "DeviceSettings" tomorrow
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
so, why not do some magic stuff?

grab all when there is nothing online and sync when there is only few things missing...
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
This is what i am currently doing.

Is there no "Last timestamp" im currently grabbing all. Elsehow not.

Anyway, i try to reduce traffic whereever possible. When im going to transfer only text-parts i can compress it heavy. When i send the whole Database (which may up to 50MB!) it takes AGES and it can not be compressed. Im working on a solution to use other charsets then UTF8.

MAy i ask which language is not working? chinese? Hebrew?
[Android Apps and Games] pccma:
Thanks, kindly drop a post here once you've put it back, thanks!
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
No problem. which language is used in your messages? Chinese? Hebrew? russian?

Did it work flawless with "Grabbing"?

Anyway, exam are done. now i can spend more time daily for developing
[Android Apps and Games] pccma:
It worked well with grabbing in the past. However, I'm saying for whatsapp only. Contact names and SMS have never worked in whatever ways.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
its tsusername=xxx and tspassword=xxx

username is reserved for other stuff right now :)
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Update is out! It includes some new cool stuff. It may be _VERY_ buggy right now because i have changed the whole http module again (low memory usage).

In the next release i ll put back GCM Possibility again (but only optional!).

Ahh, and yes. Livemessages without root ... :) currently just whatsapp, soon viber and so on. Android 4.1 or newer required

Download Attached in first post

http://www.theftspy.com/member/modul/livemessages
[Android Apps and Games] KRiZ-R:
Hi, I downloaded and installed the attachment in the first post and it still says version 16
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
I think it might be a good idea to make stable releases in between without experimental new features or big changes.

And beta releases for the new features.

Because now every version seems buggy, in spite of all the hard work you put into it.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Yep. This is what im doing now. Until wednesday.

Ill try to build a stable version until wednesday which get the old

GCM

and

MQTT

back combined in one app. This is a fallback.solution but should work.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Updated again.

Finallly both is back.

GCM and MQTT.

GCM whenever possible (Devicesettings->TheftSpy Push to !DISABLE!)

and MQTT when its not (no google account or playstore installed when the thief reformatted the device for example).

Whatsapp Livegraber is included too. Tested all on my S3 and it was working fine
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
I don't know this is already posted. After I tap on the "Gain system-app access" option, my galaxy s3 reboot. Looks like the connectivity issue now fixed. But still can't grab Inbox messages. But http://www.theftspy.com/member/modul/dashboard shows latest SMS messages. But those messages are not shown in the http://www.theftspy.com/member/modul/sms page.

I already disabled TheftSpyPush option, but every time after I run an action using web dashboard, I can see a push notification in the notification area.
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
well...

instaled the new version and i'm getting a lot of trouble to connect devices...

i'm testing now in two devices (s2 4.3 rooted and milestone 2.3.7 rooted)...

i'll test later using a galaxy grand duos stock non-rooted...
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Ok I have changed that in the newest version but it only saves my email. I need to type pw anyway while starting app
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
Thanks.

In version 18 the Disable Launcher does not work.

The Phone receives the disableIcon command but the icon remains.

Also after logging in again the following settings are back to enabled, but I disabled them:

Repeat Audiorecord

Repeat GPS

Repeat ImageSynchroniser

After I disabled them again and logged in on the website again, it says enabled again.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Notification is one of the new features.

Go to to devicesettings->notification->off

Connection Issues? When TheftSpy Push is disabled GCM should be enabled. Then it's a problem with the device itself.

Im currently reworking the frontpage anyway. Give me 3-4 days. Everything will be improved on the website.

Is there any other bugs?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Then you have not enabled autologin
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
If I try to uninstall from the Theftspy menu on the Phone, it says Uninstall Unsuccesful and the program is still there.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Have you made it a system-.app? if yes then you need to click it again
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
Thanks, after the Phone rebooted it was uninstalled.
[Android Apps and Games] WOOWAPPS:
This APP is very USEFUL!
[Android Apps and Games] mykimouse:
Have you given a thought about an android native client instead of the website?
[Android Apps and Games] pccma:
I forgot to mention, it's all chinese in my case (ie sms, contact names, whatsapp).
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
Something strange. Today it suddenly stopped connecting to web (theft spy). I try to manage my phone using various command, but non of them executed. But app still running background and I can see theftspy app connected to 144.76.34.84 IP with 1883 port.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
it is very important that you send me the log.

Go to your device, login and press "Support". Send the Email to me OR send me an email with the /sdcard/.debug file.

Thank you!!

email is emanuel@theftspy.com
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
I can't see any .debug file in internal and external SD. So how do I send you log?

If I go to support option, it doesn't attach any log. Message body shows Token, my mail address and device model no. Therefore I didn't sent that mail.

Also license shows I don't have (I have xda license). But I can log.
[Android Apps and Games] Hedied4me:
I was looking into this app as the thread name had me curious. But I can't seem to find a description of what it does; even in the OP. Can someone point me in the right direction.
[Android Apps and Games] altqq:
I tried it a few days ago. This is an anti theft app like Cerberus but with alot more feature.

I only got to try it for few hours but here is the summary. You can obtain location, call logs, sms logs take screen shots, record audio/video and also pictutes/messages from app like Facebook and whatsapp. It also seem to come with alot of control over the phone and privacy of the app. The Web portal was very easy to use and required minimal set up.

So if your like me shopping for an alternative for Cerberus do check it out.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Ill go back to a better way.

Just for technical stufff:

I tried to make a SQL Queue and serialize all requests to the Database.When there are more then 120 Requests a SQL Database will be created or blown up.

But since SQL on Android makes some trouble (when querying to fast or when the opening/closing fail) it may be possible that it stuck and will not be reopened again.

Anyway, i spend more then 10 hours now to create a little concept how to solve it in a proper and good way.

I have build now a very simple queue which is very stable.

Tonight there will be a release which fixes all the stuff. Connection + all other stuff what was not working in the unstable releases now.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Latest "Unstable" Version is in first post now.

Please try it out and tell me if everything works

Thanks
[Android Apps and Games] KRiZ-R:
Hi, it still sometimes doesn't connect. When I wait a few minutes and try again,it works. But the old command is never delivered.

And the take picture gives me a black picture.
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
i'm wondering how many people will actually read the first post...

anyway...

with the previous release i could not connect, now it is working flawlessly but i got a fc in 5 minutes, right after i hit the syncronize in whatsapp reader...

sending .debug
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thank you.

I know why this happen. This is why i said stable in the evening :)

Ill change all "Services" to IntentServices to make sure that the service can processed in a new thread (and not timeout)
[Android Apps and Games] android addicts:
I sent an email with debug file. I read your response. But my WiFi not block any connection. I use Google DNS.
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
when i try to login, i was sent to a page to validate my licence...for a moment i think i lost the licence you already give me...

i not test everything [i'm at work], but so far...

wzup reader: crashing every now and then, syncronize partially

facebook reader: never work for me...

img sync: flawlessly

filemanager: flawlessly

sms: sync all sms flawlessly

screenshot: return black img when screens is off, works when screen is on

callogs: fine

contacs: fine

stealth: sometimes the drawer icon comes back to show
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thank you. Ill check the Stealth-Stuff.

Well, use one of the licenses at the first post.

Update in ~ 3 hours which fixes the Whatsapp (even for hebrew and chinese people)
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
the licence is returning this error...

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ' 2, 1382376286, 1413933212)' at line 1
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
When does this exactly happen? Send me your email in pm please.

new version is in first post (20). it should be almost stable now
[Android Apps and Games] Jdgp42:
That happen went trying to redeem the codes. Also happen to me.

(In this addres http://www.theftspy.com/member/modul/licenses)
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
found the problem.. you need to choose a device on the top first.

Its not working if you have not a license choosen which you want to apply the license. Its fixed for now.

Anyway, ill not do changes on _this_ member area now.

Im hardly working on the new interface which is thousand times better and more effective
[Android Apps and Games] Jdgp42:
Have to say that website looks so awesome now. Good work. And yes that was the problem.

Spanish in the website has some mistakes. Im a spanish native and some things are redundant.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Thank you. The new Admin-Interface is thousand times better, cleaner, ... :) It will be there in 2-3 weeks.

if you want to fix this it would be cool to do that on

http://crowdin.net/project/theftspy

Thank you
[Android Apps and Games] Jdgp42:
Will take a look in the night, thank you for the hard work. :)
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Update is available again.

I removed the "Notification-Stuff" since it crashes on some device (and not respond to commands anymore).

I fixed also a issue that a SQL Cursor is not closed successfully (And causes memory leaks).

Stealth Settings are fixed now too

Current Version is 21.
[Android Apps and Games] rhazahrd:
i can't connect with this version...

i tried like 5 times and nothing...

clear cache, data, uninstall, reboot, install, reboot, log in (never shows the sync message), try to connect and nothing...
[Android Apps and Games] alberto3330:
Hello! I have the 9 version. The autoupdate run? Thanks. A greetings.
[Android Apps and Games] Rothan77:
Just tried the new version.

Audiorecorder is using new format 3gp?

Smaller file size but 3gp cannot play in the background.

Nevermind, found BSPlayer to play 3gp in the background.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
new version is available which fixes some stuff.

Changelog:

- Fixed RootCommands

- Fixed Screenshots

- Fixed some Connection Issues (maybe not all)

- Added Log-Syncing to Webserver

- Fixed/Added new GPS Module (Start on the Website and End on the website to get instant locationchanges). Ill update the website to handle this tomorrow

Added some new license-codes to the 1st post
[Android Apps and Games] dms76:
Installed latest version after a format and I get a toast message that says wrong data?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
take care that you need email instead of username.

email and password. Username is no longer used
[Android Apps and Games] mykimouse:
Wondering if it will be able to grab BBM messages !!!
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
found a very important "_bug_" which affect all users who have NOT root on the device.

Im currently fixing this.
[Android Apps and Games] pccma:
Hi Theftspy,

May I know if this is back yet?

Paul.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
yes and no.

Im working on it. And im working on the connection issues and to 2 versions.

GCM and MQTT since GCM works nicely for the most people.

Ill also add a "BETA-TEST"- for all interested people for the new app
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Facebook grabbing completly doesn't work :(
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
new version is up. New licenses on the first post too.

try and let me know if something is not working
[Android Apps and Games] n1ghtfly:
I have 2 devices, a Galaxy s3 and a HTC One, both with root access. Since last updates not able to connect to the HTC One anymore. De-installed and re installed the app but still no luck. I am able to start the app on the phone and log in but from the website I simply can't connect. Any suggestions?
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
I have rooted Galaxy S4 and I still can't download any facebook messages :(
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Is the app installed _AND_ take care that Messages are only grabbed which are received/send since the installation date.

The FB Database does not offer old messages (yet)
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Messenger is installed and I was messaging some ppl after I installed the newest TheftSpy
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Messenger app only or Facebook aswell?

Currently it does only support (on rooted devices) when the facebook app is installed aswell (Because of using the Databases of the app)
[Android Apps and Games] kamieniarz:
Both are installed + root ofc

New Update (Fixed connection Issues for some devices) and added a more "complex" mix between Connection Queue (ThreadSafeClientConnManager) and AsyncTaskExecutor.

Updated Codes on the first Post.

Updated some small Fixes.

Added Download Helper
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
I still see that my phone is sending it's gps location periodically.

In the device settings I set Repeat GPS to Disabled, so I think it shouldn't.

This has been with all versions I used untill now.

Can you fix this?
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Press "STOP GPS Listener" in GPS

This will solve it.

It runs aslong as you dont stop it to save battery (and being more accuracte)
[Android Apps and Games] darwusch:
No, didn't solve it. After I stopped it, in a couple of hours I noticed the gps sending it's location twice, from Theftspy.
[Android Apps and Games] pccma:
Hi Theftspy,

Just to avoid any misunderstanding, I'm still using a pretty old version (should be around 2 mths ago) so I thought the whatsapp grab-all-messages code is still there and you'll just have to re-enable the option in the Web fronted?
[Android Apps and Games] k wizzle:
Still having issues connecting on newest update.
[Android Apps and Games] TheftSpy:
Updated to V28.

Some changes to connection again. And i found a bug that the HttpClient is not reused and created everytime (which causes memoryleaks).

And i set uped a timeout to 15seconds when the connection could not be established.

this should fix the unclosed connections too
