[XDA Assist] Monstercat007:
One day i was just opening my tablet and saw that my fingerprint got vanished and its asking me the alternative passwords. I remembered the one on the owner account and opened it and then I changed it to swipe and back to fingerprint... My account was alright then.. it had the fingerprint back in not time. BUT the standard user.. the other one.. i dont remember its password. Ive tried so many, those which i just thought of but did not put them ever in anything.. but it was no use.. if there is one password left, ITS THE ONE BUT I DONT REMEMBER IT.. that account has the most data in it so i cant afford to loose any data.. i wanted to know that if there is some way of removing passwords from the whole Android Device? Or Changing Passwords? Or Administrators for changing the passwords... anything i just want it back... another thing is that after the 5 unsuccessful tries.. it does not say unlock via google maybe because it is standard user... Please tell me how to do it Step-by-Step... please... ull be a lifesaver!

READ ALL OF IT PLEASE.. MAIN THING IN THE END. STEP BY STEP WORK NEEDED... SERIOUS PROBLEM.. MAY SEE THE ATTACHED PHOTO!

Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. There is a reason you use passwords and that's if someone doesn't know the password they can't get to the data. The only way to reset the password is to wipe the device and lose data.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netanell2004:
I have posted it 2 months ago on "apps and software" and got nothing. So I'm trying again here.

Hello everyone!

What I'm looking to do is really simple, a LOT of people are interested in these feature, however, no one has a clear solution.

There has been a lot of post about this subject but they are most old post and there's nothing help full.

Here is the problem - whenever I'm talking over the phone, I can play any music I like and I can hear it perfectly, but the other side cant hear anything! even if ill let the music play using the phone speaker - the other side is silent (witch is strange cause when the speaker play, the mic should transfer the sound and shouldn't "care" who is making it).

So after a lot of searching for apps and different ways, I found out something interesting.. If I make the call using an VOIP (skype, viber and so on) and Ill play music at the same time - THE OTHER SIDE CAN HEAR IT PERFECTLY!!! witch means the phone is fully capable of doing it.

What is going wrong when I'm using the cellular network instead of VOIP? is there a way around it?

Ive noticed some people don't get WHY would I want to do it.. well, I'm working using my phone (sales) and using the exact same pitch. I would like to be super lazy and play a recorded version of me, and when its done, be able to just keep talking to the person without him being able to notice the difference.

Since I'm doing it for work, I cant use VOIP for regular calling.

I'm using Nexus 4, chroma rom (lollipop)

ANY help at all will be appreciated :)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] netanell2004:
Something to think about..

Since I didn't found any software to do it (yet), I'm experimenting with a different direction.

I currently use a PC headphones with a simple Y adapter from eBay. So I'm thinking "all I need is another microphone. One for the talking, another to sit between speakers that will play the sound for the caller.

I've gone through eBay again, this is a tough one to find cause I need 'audio input' splitter and most splitters are 'audio output'.

If you guys know something about it, please share.

I need to run the "sleep" command for one of my app

with some shell scrip to run, and it used to work.

After I update the rom and install the latest busybox v1.20.2,

I got the following error:

It seems like the new sleep command didn't like the 's' character!

Is there a way to trace back what version of sleep I was using,

Hey guys,

This is an app I've been working on and wanted to share it with you guys. Development has been slow, but it's going to start picking up and wanted to get some constructive feedback from you guys. It's a simple app that locks the picture on top of you lock screen so you can show it to friends, family, etc. and they can't scroll through your other pictures. If they try to go into your phone, they will be locked out. It's a paid app (only $1), but if you really don't like it the play store offers a refund within a time limit. If you're really interested in reviewing it and giving me feedback but don't or can't pay, send me a pm and I can make you a beta tester. Thanks! Link to the play store is below:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.edragone.lockpicture

Description:

This picture lock application allows you to show only the photo you choose to other people. There is no need to hide your photos in hidden folders in advance. You simply go to your gallery, select the photo you want to show others, click on the share button and select picture lock. Whoever is looking at your selected picture is locked out of your other pictures and your device.

You need to extract it from

Hard to judge since it is new. Screen on time is 5 Hours 50 minutes where before I was getting about 4 Hours 10 Minutes. I removed bloat of course so it was snappy as it was when rooted before.

PingPong automatically installs SU when you run it. Did you click on download data before clicking on get root?

Yeah that's what I did. I did the exact thing with the old firmware.

When I run supersu I'm getting this error. This is what's causing the failed root?

Are you hitting the " Download data" button before you run "Get root!"?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] done12many2:
Also, did you allow Unknown Sources under Security Settings?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] wp4jot:
No. It's normal that it gives this message since it's not rooted. After clicking ok in that message you must click on download data and then in get root.

If I'm not mistaken, if he has not allowed the Unknown Sources the app doesn't even install. It gives a message to allow the Unknown Sources and take him directly to the security settings.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] teamfresno:
When I first clicked on "get root", it says device not supported. Right after that I clicked "get data" and clicked get root again. Had to do that a few times before it finally got rooted.

I don't know why but this has happened to some other users. Also read from another user that he had to turn the phone into airplane mode after clicking on download data and before clicking on get root for it to work. Mine worked at first try. Maybe I was lucky.

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djMot:
Hi everyone. I'm new to the forum; this is my first post.

I have an M7 on a stock HTC/AT&T ROM running Lollipop 5.0.2 with Sense 6.0.

I would like to root the device so that I can do things like eliminate ads, remove bloatware, run more advanced software, etc., but I do not want to loose things like Beats Audio/Boom Sound. So I'm thinking I just want to stick with the stock AT&T/HTC M7 ROM.

I have seen reference to the Sunshine App, but unless someone can tell me it does something absolutely magical for the one-use $25 payment they expect, I'm fine doing it the free way. I got the impression about Sunshine that it doesn't actually get you all the way to root. If it got me all the way and saved my data/apps, too, I'd be all over it.

Can someone please give me the full path of steps I need to go through to get this done? I'm not a dumb guy. Pretty computer savvy, actually, but there is a lot of jargon and intermediate steps that seem to be involved in all of this. Some of the videos I'm seeing are quite dated at this point, and I have to wonder if they are relevant to an AT&T M7 on Lollipop a this point. But I thrive on step-by-step tutorials, so if you guys point me to the right videos or written tutorials, I should be fine.

Any suggestion on the best way to backup my device would be appreciated, too. I understand I'm going to get all my data and programs wiped somewhere along the path.

Thank you!

[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] djMot:
Thanks, but I think you are making a few too many assumptions that I understand what your saying.

I don't think I can just flash twrp before unlocking the bootloader, am I right? And I have no clue how to flash twrp, how to set up to do that, and what to have where. I can do the steps if I know what they are. So I really am looking for a pretty explicit set of steps. You've given me some steps, yes,

and thank you for that(!!)

, but I think you're coming from a position of already knowing exactly what you are doing and all the ramifications of each and every step you would take, so by the time it gets to me it just sounds like the cliffs notes and I'm still wondering what the novel is about.

And, yes, I get that some of you here answer these kinds of noobie questions a lot, and it just gets tedious repeating yourselves. Unfortunately for us noobies who come looking to the experts for the straight-up how-to, the responses all seem like "just do this, do that" without any discussion of how to do this and how to do that. I've read several "how do I root my phone" threads here, but the answers all seem just a little to Greekish to me, and to others too I would imagine. The video tutorials here were recorded back when the M7 was brand new and there's no indication at all whether updates along the way to present day have altered the process, or whether there is a safer, better way after all this time. I have no idea if they are relevant today.

I get that I'm asking a lot for such an old device, but I would really appreciate a little of a tutorial approach.

Thanks very much.

As you can not remember, I'd only tell you from experiences from Sony .

Usually Sony updates have bugs, they do not iron it out completely and thus I have a bad experience with stock roms.

However the problem subsides if you use custom roms.

Do you want to go back to previous android build? I can write you instructions if you want to check that. However backup your data as it would wipe all data.

To update your firmware, you will need Sony PC companion to do it officially or you can use Flashtool.

I'm admittedly coming back to Android from the iPhone but I've always had a charging or audio dock for my devices and it seems people don't really make those anymore. Why is that? I understand micro usb slot placement may play a role but really I'm at a loss here. The stands/charging docks available for these devices are terrible. Is there a particular brand or website that I'm missing?
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] ThePagel:
I moved away from docks shortly after nfc came out. Now I just touch my phone to the speakers and they automatically pair. The nice thing about doing it that way is you can hold and use your phone as it's charging from any outlet in the room/house. I don't think you can use nfc for anything other than Apple pay on the iPhone so that's probably why docks are still so popular on the iphone.

Docks are usually phone specific and become obsolete when the phone does. Jack/port placement changes and there isn't a universal standard for getting audio out of the USB port. Using Bluetooth (with or without NFC) gets around the physical obsolescence with a standard method.
