[Droid RAZR M Themes and Apps] jco23:
so I've been using an app for quite awhile called Android Firewall. Essentially, it blocks/allows internet access to apps that you can specify. However, the app only successfully blocks when there is wifi or 3G signal - on a 4G signal, ads still show up.

this app is great for those free apps that displays ads, as this firewall app will block those ads from showing up (but if the app requires other internet access, then the app will not work properly).

has anyone found an app that is able to successfully block a 4G signal?

thanks!

Adfree Android works really well, but you need to be rooted. Google pulled it recently from the store because it blocked ads, but you can get it from here: adfree DOT bigtincan DOT com (New user rule, I have not enough posts for links :crying:. Anyways, You can even install it from your phone if you have a file manager)
[Droid RAZR M Themes and Apps] IndianaBond:
Adaway is great! I've been using this for months now and no ads at all. Get it here.
[Droid RAZR M Themes and Apps] jco23:
actually got it to work. the dev responded to my review and indicated that I needed to enable the IPv6 support. now, this app blocks appropriately.

i highly recommend it!

Hi. I want to give the phone to the service but I don't know how to lock the bootloader.

I tried to block it using this application Unlock.apk from this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2251407 I paste of what it is to the terminal and nothing. Botloader is still unlocked. Is the bootloader is permanently unlocked? I can't block it? This is my first attempt to block him.

Here are two screenshots of the application:

Do I have to lock it? Or do just upload v10h version? Are they not detect this in service?

Help me please because I don't know how to do it completely.

Hi guys,

I've a major problem. Today I received a notification from google to update my N4 to 4.3 version (OTA). My phone isn't rooted, not bootloaded or anything, it's just the same as I bought it. Since the installation was finished, my device is restarting itself every 0.5-1 minute. of course I can't use it anymore. I tried to make factory reset, but it didn't help. In addition, I noticed that when I charge it or connect the device to my computer, it doesn't restart itself.

Any ideas?

Thanks,

[General Accessories] nebelreich:
Hi there,

I want to connect an external serial device to the XDA (GPS mouse) and want to supply power to it from the XDA.

Is that possible?

Which pin do I use -aside from GND? -Iwould assume UDC+ or UDC- provide a power source?

What voltages do they supply?

How much current can I draw?

-the GPS mouse only draws <10mA at 5V

In general, I would appreciate some more details about the PINOUT schematic, some of the abbreviations are not clear to me. Maybe an idea to extend the connectors page?

And could someone help me with the soldering side of the connector? I have a spare charging adapter I want to use for the GPS mouse but don't know how the pins connect to the soldering part (22 pins, single line vs 2*11 on the soldering side). Yes, I could indeed measure it myself but they are rather small pins and such thick fingers... :lol:

Any help appreciated

Cheers people and keep up the good work! :wink:

ExDialer works only for single SIM phones.

I don't think there are any dialers available on the Play Store which support dual SIM phones.

You could try the Yandex Launcher which has a dialer bundled with it. The interface is beautiful and very intuitive. But it only supports single SIM phones. ExDialer is wonderful too but supports only single SIM! I'll try to theme the stock Canvas HD dialer app so it looks like the Samsung stock dialer, if you like. But it'll take time as I am busy with work at the moment. Probably next month. :thumbup:

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IchStelleDummeFragen:
hey guys, im back with stupid questions... :(

I wanted to upgrade my Nexus 7 32gb UMTS to 4.3 and used the Nexus 7 Toolkit (by Mark Skippen).

I was on a custom Rom and wanted to get back to Stock, so i could just use the update process by Google.

Downloading and Installing the ROM (including wipe of user data) by the Toolkit seemed to work and didnt show any error messages.

As is tried to boot my device into Android I got stuck in the bootloader.

When I tried to start it, a small white message "Booting failed" appeared in the top left corner. Nothing else happend.

I did everything again, no changes.

Next step was to google for a few mins, then I tried to install a custom recovery via Toolkit (which worked) and install a zip-file Rom via sideload.

Connection was there, the files got pushed onto the device but then "An Error Occured" popped up and everything stopped.

Installing a zip via usb-otg seemed promising, but this got me errors like "unable to mount /system" and "unable to mount /cache"...

when I tried to reboot from TWRP or ClockwordMod Recovery (tried the earlier described things with both recovieres) I got a message saying

"there is no OS installed, are you sure you want to reboot?"

Please help me, I really dont know how to fix this and I will need my Nexus 7 in 2 days (thats why I tried to reinstall and polish everything :rolleyes:)

thanks for your help, I really appreciate it

Edit: tl;dr

Stuck in fastboot, no OS is installed. sideload / installing ROM via ADB / installing ROM via usb-otg doenst work, most certainly because /system and /cache cant be mounted

so AFAIK the real problem is that I cant mount those partitions, otherwise I could install a ROM and get out of fastboot/recovery easily. (just mounting them in custom recoveries didnt work btw)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Red Devil:
Well . what you can try for now is download the latest factory images and flash them manually via fastboot .. See how that turns out. You can install any ROM via fastboot .. No issues what so ever.

In the factory images there will be a bootloader IMG.. Flash that first and then flash the remaining images ( I suggest manually or via the .bat or .sh files ) and then see if you can boot up android. Mostly should be possible.

And did you try rebooting inspire of the message " no is installed " appearing on the screen ? Maybe it will boot a ROM ? I remember facing this message after just flashing a rom sometimes. So don't worry.

As long as you have access too fast boot everything can be fixed at least w.r.t software.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] IchStelleDummeFragen:
It worked!!! Thank you so much. :D

Still wondering why it didnt flash the factory image as a whole while flashing every part step by step worked perfectly fine...

Yes, tried booting, but the device just restarted and returned to fastboot mode.

[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sumtingwong:
Sounds like you're looking for some sort of software that can play streaming audio. Depending on the format of the stream you want to listen to, you have to download the appropriate software.

There are radio stations out there that stream their contents using ASF format playable with the built in Windows Media Player. To listen to these stations, GSPlayer is not needed.

Other stations such as VOA stream their contents using RealPlayer format. GSPlayer won't be able to play those stations. One has to download Real Player to listen to those stations.

At first glance, your post's subject sounds like you're looking for an application that can help you stream your favourite radio stations to your PPC. Apparently, your need is much much simpler.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] sumtingwong:
Stations that stream their contents using ASF usually post a link to a nicely decorated web page which has an embeded Windows Media Player that plays an ASX file which contains links to ads as well as the main stream and the order for them to play.

Browsing directly to their web sites and clicking on those links directly from the Pocket PC sometimes don't work.

To listen to those stations, I usually search for the ASX files and save them to my Pocket PC and name them after the station name. Then I go the Windows Media Player > Playlist > Organize Playlists and I will see the ASX files listed. To listen to a particular station, I just click on the listed name.

Sometimes it's tricky to find the ASX files because most stations don't want you to jump to that file directly. They want you to look at the nicely decorated web page that has an embedded Windows Media Player and sponsors' ads. But if you look at the source of such web pages, you'll see the link to the ASX file and should be able to save that ASX file down.

It's rare to see stations listing the links to the main streams directly (http://...., mms://....) but if they do, clicking on those links from your PIE will launch the Windows Media Player.

Attached is a bunch of ASX files for a bunch of US radio stations I listen to. If you're curious, check it out. Also, for US T-Mobile users, you have to subscribe to the $19.99 Internet Plan to be able to stream. If you only have the $4.99 or $9.99 plan you won't be able to.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] joey jojo:
lets just say if it costs £2.50 per mb for gprs, how much roughly would it be for 10 mins of radio on gprs for a radio stream?
