You will be hard pressed to get a good answer. Most here have stopped using whatsapp almost a year ago and have moved on to more secure options.

Well most users in the states. I know it is popular in other countries. Like India. Maybe one of those members will have an idea.

U should install titaniyum backup. apk from plystore and backup all apk with data.or u can back up only data when u installed a new rom or new version of whatsapp.

Try it dear
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Speedspaz:
Just move whatsapp folder from your internal storage to sd card and then after flashing move it back to internal.

Or use titanium backup.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xdacktheresianum:
Hi all,

When going Settings->Apps->Running->Cached Processes, times the various apps have been running are sometimes preceded by prefixes such as (for example, without the quotes I'm using here) "=8:16:48" or "R2:21:40" or "F2:10:22" or "B0:54:18" etc (sometimes I have also seen prefixes such as ? or >.

I seem to observe that these extra prefixes are added after app crashes (in my case, crashes of SeePU, probably), as is indicated by the fact that some apps, before registering the time (with above prefixes) are indicated as "Restarting".

Does anybody please know what these prefixes mean?

Thanks,

I have searched relative keyword such as `sensor` in the repo, but could not find the answer.

I want to hook the step counter's sensor to do some auto-testing jobs on a health-kit app. Basically, we could get the steps by listening the SensorManager, the demo code would be

public class StepsActivity extends Activity implements SensorEventListener {
private SensorManager sensorManager;
private TextView count;
boolean activityRunning;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_steps);
count = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.count);
sensorManager = (SensorManager) getSystemService(Context.SENSOR_SERVICE);
}

@Override
protected void onResume() {
super.onResume();
activityRunning = true;
Sensor countSensor = sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_STEP_COUNTER);
if (countSensor != null) {
sensorManager.registerListener(this, countSensor, SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_UI);
} else {
Toast.makeText(this, "Count sensor not available!", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}

@Override
protected void onPause() {
super.onPause();
activityRunning = false;
}

@Override
public void onSensorChanged(SensorEvent event) {
if (activityRunning) {
count.setText(String.valueOf(event.values[0]));
}
}

@Override
public void onAccuracyChanged(Sensor sensor, int accuracy) {

}
}

I've read the tutorial, I know we could hook a specific function in a specific class, such as

findAndHookMethod("com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock", lpparam.classLoader, "updateClock", new XC_MethodHook() {

@Override
protected void afterHookedMethod(MethodHookParam param) throws Throwable {
TextView tv = (TextView) param.thisObject;
String text = tv.getText().toString();
tv.setText("time is:"+text);
tv.setTextColor(Color.RED);
}
});

But I'm wondering how to hook the data on system sensor?

[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjjcb:
I have my ls990 on BarePop, which is the only option that I know of that has a working NFC. I'm all set up for wireless charging with the wireless sticker on the inside of my cover and if course the wireless charger.

When I set it on the circle, it starts to charge, gives me the warning that charging is slower than plugging in, shows charging for another 3 or 4 seconds, and then stops charging. This has been an issue since I hooked myself up. The charging drops after about 15 seconds.

I wonder if it's a shoddy sticker (which looks to be correctly placed) or a funky charger (Ankor from Amazon). Has anyone experienced this symptom or know what the problem could be?
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acefr:
Did you use a power adapter that is rated 1.5A or above? I used my old Nexus 5 charger (rated 1.3A) and my Qi charging is cutting on and off. Once I changed back to the original G3 charger, the Qi charging is stable.
[G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mjjcb:
That might be a really good call! I thought it was a good charger by a trusted manufacturer, but I checked and it's only a 1 amp output Anker. Makes sense, especially if you had similar symptoms with a low amp device.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abbale87:
Hi,

I've a s4 mini which has the IMEI code broken..searched in Google for solving problem but I don't have a EMS folder backup.

Is there a method for change the IMEI with a new one or from another device that I don't use?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sasank360:
IMEI cannot be tampered. It is present on a read-only partition.

To recover imei just flash stock samsung firmware using odin.

Also make factory reset. Good luck.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chamelleon:
In many Samsung phones IMEI can't be recovered cause EFS partition is broken or just wiped. If phone has IMEI 00000... maybe You can recover it by flashing stock using Odin but if Your IMEI is 0049... only devices like Z3x or Octoplus and other can recover it.

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] Stif-Meister:
In spite of all the reports of the Green Emerald version not coming before june, I got a surprising mail yesterday, that my carrier ('CallMe', in Denmark) had sent it to me.

And sure enough, the Green 64gb version arrived today! See the attached photos.

I actually had already bought the White Pearl, which I have had a few days, but I'll return that and keep the Green Emerald. It's gorgeous. A rather dark, subtle green, but the light reflects in it, which makes it shift between a darker to brighter green, but not too flashy. It really is classy and cool at the same time. I love it :)

I wrote to my carrier, and they said that it was a surprise for them too, that they had received some green versions all of a sudden from Samsung. I hope that this is also good news for the rest of you, who are waiting for the green one - because maybe they are getting to the market much faster than expected. I don't know. I am just very happy to have it in my hands!

[Galaxy S6 Edge General] Stif-Meister:
By the way, I would say that it mostly is a very dark green. The brighter green is seen when a light source hits it from a certain angle - and the brigther the light source the more you get that shift in color as you move it around, and the more you get that 'metalic' look. But when it is still, on a table or in your hand, you mostly see it as a very dark green.

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EddyOS:

No, Sunshine is the only way
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Seanie280672:
$25 is nothing compared to how much it cost the creators of sunshine, they destroyed loads of phones whist creating sunshine, obviously you need to test it before you release it to the public, and in the beginning it didn't always work, each phone at $500+ a pop isn't cheap, and they didn't all survive testing, so $25 is nothing.

You loose the ability to back flash, convert your phone to another version, jump around with firmware, s-on allows only current firmware flash and next step up, HBOOT flashing, modified firmware flashes, radio flashing, CID and MID changes, all sorts, I cant live without s-off myself.

you can pretty much rest assured that now you've rooted and possibly flashed a custom recovery, unlocked and flashed a custom rom, you've lost the ability to get any further updates from HTC, unless there is an RUU about for your phone to return it to full stock condition, it possible with s-on, but can be a nightmare.

Before you do anything with your phone, first learn how to fix it.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Sell the device for 500, and live for another 100 days :confused:

But thats of course not how we should see it !? Weird world we live in.........

Disagree for a bit on this, there are many stock backups here in the M8 forum. The general section has a topic about that stickied and there is also a thread here in the Q&A section that holds lots of them.

Even the owners own stock backup is more than enough. Restore the stock nandroid and flash the stock recovery from the new ota, apply the update and voila.....stock updated. I'm not sure why many people always want to rely on RUU's ?

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bigbear6708:
haha, the only reason I needed S off was to sim unlock...was way too easy to just Call T-mobile and get my code!!!
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpmccormick:
I can't believe threads like this are getting closed left and right on XDA. I think Sunshine charging $25 is a very important topic to discuss on XDA, and there should be a proper place to discuss it.

I have seen root-ninja say he is willing to PM people his expenses to S-Off which were in the few thousands. So what... the number of people that have S-Offed is multiple hundreds easy if not 1000's, and he is making $25 off each of them. That means he has earned his money back and a few years worth of salary on top of that, all for 1 weeks work and a $2000 investment. Great for him, as an individual developer I am happy to see him get some cash. I wish he would realize how he is severely hurting/violating the spirit of hacking.

This is software, hacking software. It should be free and open-source with a donation link. This is a place of learning, so please, teach how it was done. If more devs go down this road it will be very sad for XDA and the entire phone-hacking scene. Less devs will learn, all things will be kept secret and cost money, instead of turning to XDA because we cannot trust carriers and mfgs, we will not be able to trust XDA.

Sad days ahead if we don't as a group complain, boycott, and chastise this sort of bad behavior.

PS: Is anyone at all concerned about the list of permissions the app uses. Sure it is "needed" for hacking, but what else could it be used for???
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] earthslastkryptonian:
if i could pay the twenty five dollars i would....

im 16

i dont have a credit card and my parents aren't exactly the most willing to allow me to use twenty five dollars on sunshine.....

im pretty sure the devs who worked on sunshine have got their money back and more...

this is a great place of learning. it hurts when some of us cant do anything about this.

its been a year since ive been hoping they drop the payment or they add a free method for s-off.

so far none.

this only slows down dev work and hurts dev culture

leaving things open source would help everyone.....

secrets have their costs......
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr Hofs:
Just think about what happens when they stop the development on s-off, i dont think anybody else comes along and get it done for free. Because there is still up till now no other dev who dared to gain s-off.

Nobody ever complained when s-off was free ...... of course not it was FREE ! But now they ask for a price. Yes for some a big amount. But people who complain about that should not even think about s-off. S-off is not even needed to flash custom roms or run custom kernels.

And then the complaint about the 2000 investment , also nonsense because they messed up many devices. Not only the M8 ! Think about that before saying things like that. The team behind s-off goes many years back already. I frankly doubt that a year salary would make up for it !!!

And the rights and permissions s-off needs.....if you are scared or worried ? DON'T USE IT :rolleyes:

Nobody is forcing anybody to use it. Stay safe.....stay stock

This all has nothing to do with xda, xda has no rights whatsoever on s-off + the involved development

Take it or leave it ! Right [MENTION=711482]beaups[/MENTION] !!!

[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] beaups:
1.) Permissions are declared for fun, and as a learning experience for users. For you, as a "developer", you should know that as a root exploit we can get whatever permissions we want without declarations.

2.) We've covered the costs and our pricing strategy time and time again. If you think the price is unfair, don't buy it. If you think it should be free, and everything on XDA should be free, then spend the time yourself and develop another solution, and then provide it and support it for free. It should only take you a week, right?

These things take a lot of time, and money. a LOT of time. How many unlocks are being released for other devices lately? Where can I paid or free Samsung bootloader unlock on a blocked device? How about Motorola? LG? Sony?.....

The simple fact is this: f we weren't able to charge for SunShine, we would not have been able to dedicate the resources to develop it., and you'd have no s-off today.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcase:
Sorry no, you are telling half truths, and flat out lies. I have no idea why you would do this.

No, I offered to let someone take over the financial responsibility and re-release for free, I didn't offer to PM expenses of a "few thousands". Few thousand is what was spent in the first week of April. Few weeks? SunShine has been in development for well over a year .Few years of salary, your kidding.

Taking your word that you are a developer, you should know very well something like this doesn't magically appear in one week. As a developer, you are well aware that a root app does not need to really declare any permissions. I could add them on the fly, I mean the app is running as root. So why all the permissions, just to raise awareness of permissions. Do you want me to remove all permissions and just add them on the fly without alerting you? Its a pretty trivial thing to do, and you would never know.

We are far from the only ones doing this, we are just the cheapest, and safest, yet we are the only ones attacked over it.

Offer still stands, commit to taking over full financial requirements of our development, and we can re-release for free.
[One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rpmccormick:
I am coming from the perspective of M9, not M8... I posted here because the M9 thread was closed.

You said yourself you bought 4 M9's and I thought you said you had S-Off in a week, no? I am a dev, hardware and software, but not a super-star like you, and though I truly believe I could get S-off, it would probably take me a year of my life that I cannot devote.

I have great respect for you man, and for the XDA community at large. The core of me truly believes that forcing a charge on modders is wrong. Well, if you want to charge for your do it all for you app that is not wrong, but you should also post clear instructions on what your app does so that others could easily do the same, themselves, for free. Knowledge should be free. You are hoarding your knowledge in order to increase profits for your app. I do not mean to offend, just to share my opinion, which is that your tactics are immoral. Please take that statement with a grain of salt, as I do not mean to offend, I am sure you do not believe they are immoral, and I also believe that paying for any form of Knowledge or Art is immoral. I do realize I am in the minority there.

EDIT: Are there others doing it for more money? Who? Do you really just make enough to keep up with your dev-expenses? or if 1% of the people that paid donated, would that cover your dev expenses and the other 99% is just cash on top? Maybe my scales-of-economy are way off here, but it seems to me by the number of people with S-Offed M8's and M9's, that you should be rolling in it at $25/head, no?
