Hi guy!

I just read about the app ops, which offers granular permission control, but apparently it is kind of primitive.

I did more search in google's own android source tree, and found that the optional permission management has been implemented by Google for a long time(back to Feb 2012). They just hided it for other reasons.

In this patch, they introduced two new APIs: grantPermission(pkg, perm), and revokePermission(pkg, perm)

In another patch, they hided all the stuff in app installer.

However, all the APIs are still available in all versions of Jelly Bean!!! We only need a 3rd party permission manager to utilize these APIs. I think it would be much more elegant than this "app ops". It is also much less intrusive than Xprivacy, pdroid, etc, therefore all rooted jb phones are able to benefit from this without much hassle.

I'm not a programmer, thus can not do it by myself. Anyone want to bring the awesome permission management to all the Jelly Bean users?:)

I updated to 4.2.2 and the Power Saver icon is still sitting there on the far left mocking me quietly

So I have the pirate bay app on my AT&T htc one running stock jellybean. I cam across an app called Google play modded. Which I thought meant I can go in and customize the Google play store and delete the bloatware that come with the phone, but I found out that It was something totally different. So I went to uninstall it from the app drawer and It deleted the whole Google play store. I downloaded and apk file from some website which fixed it. but after rebooting I got this error. I then went to titanium backup and wiped the data. It fixed the crashes but now I for some reason am running the modded Google play app again. I deleted Google play services and google play app. rebooted my phone. It removed the modded Google play store and fixed everything, but whenever I try downloading an app It breaks everything.

I'm running Jelly bean 4.2.2 on stock android. HTC one.

Thanks for your help in advance.

Just got my N7 2013 32 GB from UPS at lunch. On first boot it loaded with Spanish language prompts. I nearly freaked out. Almost immediately prompted me (in enspanol) to update it and I did.

Weird.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Furik:
The reason why the APK hasn't been shared around is probably because the beta testing is being conducted by close family and friends at BlackBerry. Employees were able to have only friends and family test it out before the apps official release on Google Play. I'm sure a few random people were invited also but the majority are, like i've said above, are being tested by close friends and family members.

[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chr0:
Here are some doubts i have about the screen orientation: the home screen is always displayed in portrait mode, Doesn't care about what settings i have, whether itis locked in landscape mode or not, or anything of that sort. I tried disabling the 180 degree orientation leaving only 90 and 270 checked. No go. Is this normal in all CM10.1 installations, or is it specific to the Ovation or is it purely my own dumbness, if that's even a word? I am more confused because i allowed the lock screen to be displayed in landscape, and it does. Just not the home screen.

Secondly the Skype app willonly work at 90 degrees orientation. Not even 270. Even if it is locked to landscape, shouldn't it be available at both 90 AND 270?

All other apps reorient or lock as per the tile in my quick settings panel. Why then is the home screen and Skype so stubborn.

I am running CM10.1 2030719 UNOFFICIAL Ova

This topic can be closed now. I looked up a video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfvOTFssDMM) of the swapping process and saw how easy it is, so i just went ahead and tried it, and it totally worked, so now it's charging fine again. Thank you to anyone who viewed this and hopefully this can help someone in the future.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] krazzykiller:
I didn't read all of that. I was at a concert last night. But here what I know about the not charging thing.

In my experience

1.all the good galaxy phones do it.

2. Its not that it wasn't charging. Its that vzw turned the power up on the modems. If your in a low service or weak signal area your phone will actually drain the batter faster then you can charge it.

So if you notice this is happening. Switch your phone into airplane mode. Or turn off mobile data and let it charge for a while.

I have read about a few case's where the usb ports where disconnected. But I think the crazy fast radio battery drain is way more common.

I don't know if its the same for other carriers but I know a note guy a s4 guy and 2 other note 2 guys we all had the same problem with it.we are all Verizon too.

The original modem flash helps a lot but the 2nd one that went out ota is stronger in weak signal areas so we all use it and turn off our data if it gets to much.

Hey fellow XDA-ers

Quick question. There are a lot of threads about ppl who have managed to get their SGH-T989D into "firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode in KIES & try again"

Lots of the response thread deal with either flashing the stock rom or another rom or a recovery or something. But that's not my question.

My question is this: Is data that was previously on the device still intact? I can tell you that no attempt to flash the device was made.

Thanks in advance.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] soupysoup:
Yes, as long as it happens while install is in progress u can get it back, most of the time what happens is a bad flash with Odin or still having kies running in background while using Odin, happened to me, like an idiot I moved, phone fell from desk and unplugged itself mid flash, I was able to flash twrp and when it rebooted it was right where I left it, contacts apps everything, now if ur flashing a rom with Odin maybe not as Odin wipes the phone when flashing a rom, but this mostly happens to ppl when trying to root and install a custom recovery, which is a very easy fix, maybe I'll post a how to.....

I didnt remember if I clicked Disable Recovery Flash or not. heh :p After that, I waited for 1 hr but my S4 is stuck at the google startup screen with occasional vibrations of the phone.
