Hi,

With our smartphones and apps we already send quite a lot of data to third parties. :rolleyes:

I am interested by a wearable device such as a Fitbit or Jawbone (to mention only popular ones) to track my daily activities but I don't want to send more data to more third parties. In addition, if one of these companies decides to stop some products or shut down their servers, these devices would probably stop working.

As they all provide an Android app to sync the smartphone and the device to fetch the data and display it, I am wondering why it would be requested to send data to their servers. Does anyone know if these app is working properly without an active connection to these servers? Is there any way to block these connections without a rooted phone? If rooted, do you think updating the hosts file would be enough to block connection?

Aside it, I am wondering if it would be possible to redirect this traffic to a personal server to fill a personal database? Is the traffic secured, via SSL for example, between the app and the server? We can imagine creating an open source project to be installed on our personal RaspberryPi (for example) to display data in a more friendly way on desktop without giving access to private data to big companies.

Hi all,

Thanks your help first. I am new to android development. I would like to develop a small offline dictionary on my mobile. I don't know how to save the data for my app. I would like to save the data with my app in my mobile. I am using android mobile. I don't know how to do that. Please may someone give some suggestions.

Thanks
[Web App Development] signitysolutions:
Hello Firstly welcome to the forum!!

For creating an app you have to hire an Android application developer or you can discuss with the person with the depth knowledge of android development. There are many websites and companies, through which you can create your app.

Thanks

I think I may be completely screwed but hopefully someone here can help me.

I tried running the shelltool program to flash to faria's wm6 rom and now my phone is completley bricked. It is stuck on the first screen when you power the device on, the screen that says T-Mobile and tells you what rom and radio version are installed on the phone.

I have tried running the RUU provided by T-Mobile and that didnt work and I have also tried re-flashing the rom using the shelltool program using the original rom. Nothing is working and I am desperate for help.

If anyone has any ideas, please help me as this is my only cell phone and I do not have the money to replace it.

Please, please help if you can.

reflash with the "wizard love rom" and its done you will recover your g4
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] dharvey4651:
Where do I find this rom and how should I flash it?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] BBowermaster:
Read the wiki. You are not bricked. You need to get into bootloader mode.

People don't willingly help you if your not willing to help yourself, especially if you didn't read before flashing in the first place.
[Samsung Gear S2] tmn0004676:
Does anyone have any more details on how the e-sim will be implemented.

If it means I have to take out another contract them I'm not interested.

However, if it can be linked to my existing contract without incurring any additional fee then I will be interested.

Once the e-sim has connected to the network perhaps it de-activates the phone sim? Presumably, they can both be active?
[Samsung Gear S2] Android_Fr3ak:
With the gear s you had to add another line to your account. For Verizon it was $5 a month. You get a new phone number for the watch. The watch cost $399 off contract and $349 on contract. None of this has anything to do with the e sim. My understanding is its a smaller sim card with no ability to remove. Which is the reason why it is waterproof. I would prefer the waterproof over being able to remove it but that's just me. Some disagree.

Hope this helps
[Samsung Gear S2] sefrcoko:
Just Google "e-sim", that's what I did :). That will quickly answer your main questions, nothing really specific to Gear S2.
[Samsung Gear S2] CehowardNote3:
With Tmobile, another wearable line is just $5, so it is a nobrainer to either keep /get another Gear S line or disolve it!
[Samsung Gear S2] integlikewhoa:
So you want 3g (cell service) watch but not to pay any monthly service charges to your phone care provider......... LOL

The way it works is its an add on to your contract for another device. Same as the galaxy gear s.

It's up to your carrier to provide the extra cost for another sim or device. Usually its 5-10 a month but again that depends on your carrier.
[Samsung Gear S2] abhijeetm2:
Nothing to "LOL" here. I have a phone and a phone number. I buy a 3G enabled smartwatch. I need the flexibility to step out of my house with just the smartwatch and expect to receive my phone calls on the watch. If manufacturers/operators are trying to sell a smartwatch, which is a secondary device to complement your phone, and expect me to buy a new contract with a new number, no matter what the price is; and you are gullible enough to fall for that - then yeah, LOL!

Update - Well looks like AT&T saved you from getting ripped off - www(dot)wareable(dot)com/smartwatches/att-announces-numbersync-for-gear-s2-watch-urbane-2-1894

That was common sense; how easy it is to LOL!
[Samsung Gear S2] A_N_D_R_E:
You still need a contract to get NumberSync to work. Note that the article you linked mentions "connected" devices.
[Samsung Gear S2] _Dennis_:
Numbersync still means each device has its own number, but the 'server' side connects the two like call/text fowarding.

A device on a network uses resources, why shouldn't a company reclaim the cost of those resources?
[Samsung Gear S2] abhijeetm2:
That cost should already be built into the monthly plan. If I am paying $60 per month for unlimited talk and text and say 5GB data, I shouldn't have to pay again for another device. But that is how it is in USA with their "device access charge". It's ridiculous for some parts of the world.

In India for example your number/plan is tied only to the SIM card and you are free to switch between devices. My idea of using a smartwatch like LG Urbane 2 is to connect it with my phone using Bluetooth when I am carrying both devices with me; and when I want to leave my phone home, then move the SIM card from my phone to the smartwatch and step out. But that I cannot do in USA unfortunately without adding another line.
[Samsung Gear S2] _Dennis_:
Adding a line is not the same as having one line.

One line:

One SIM card, has the ability to only make calls, text, and data from one device at a time. One SIM means one number.

Add a line:

Two SIMS (the watches is embedded). Each can act individually, has two numbers (watch number is hidden and using some back end software AT&T links the phones number with the watch's).

If you want to use one SIM you have to find a watch that you can change out the SIM. The original gear S could. If you really wanted you could swap the Sim out when you left your phone at home, but you wouldn't get notifications from things like what's appwhatsapp since the watch didn't have the app.

Verizon charges $5 for a watch to connect to your plan, that's reasonable to me. $10- $15 is a bit high but not something I would say is ridiculous. If you don't want to pay the price then the service isn't worth it to you and a Bluetooth device might be better.
[Samsung Gear S2] maknajjar:
I'm interested in an answer to the same question but for a different reason. I want to send a Gear S2 3G to my 10 years old brother back in Jordan. Cell service providers over there never heard of e-sims. The only sell sim cards. My brother does not want to carry a phone in addition to the watch fearing losing it.

Is there a way where my parents can buy a regular sim then program its info into the e-sim of the Gear S2. Please let me know if someone managed to do that.

[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sultan70:
Hello!

My RazrI got into a bootloop (red boot animation) without any reason (the phone worked since over a year without any tweaking around with stock firmware). I got it into fastboot and tried to flash CFC_9.8.2I-50_SMI-26_S7_USASMIJBRTEU.xml with RSD but at command 4 (reboot bootloader) it failed. I also tried the MEDFIELD unbrick fix, but this didn't help also. So I executed each fastboot command from the RSD xml manually. I flashed gpt, motoboot, boot, recovery and motobp with success. But I got an error on system:

Invalid sparse file format at header magi

error: write_sparse_skip_chunk: don't care size 701911720 is not a multiple of the block size 4096

a few other lines with this block size problem then:

Writing 'system'...

(bootloader) Fail to erase partition

The same result with flashing cdrom.

Then I tried to erase the system with fastboot erase system and got the following error:

erasing 'system'...

FAILED (remote: Permission denied)

I also tried to erase the cache with the following result:

erasing 'cache'...

(bootloader) BLKDISCARD ioctl /dev/block/mmcblk0 fail

(bootloader) Erase cache fail

FAILED (remote failure)

My bootloader is unlocked. After getting the first time into fastboot, now the phone hangs on the "unlocked bootloader" screen for some time and the resets und loops this way.

Is there any hope to get it working again?

Thanks!
[RAZR i Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AGISCI:
You need to use mfastboot to flash system. It won't work with fastboot.

mfastboot is a modified fastboot to work with large system files.

Ciao! I'm 17 years old italian developer and this is my first app, i did this app in my spare time, i'm still learning development.

So, let's go to the app, Material Apps Showcase ,i've built an app that list all the apps that follow Material Design guidelines. I think that this is the biggest database of Material Design apps , thanks to the online community on g+ that posted a lot of material apps, thanks to them! I divided all the apps into 14 categories, in this way it's simple to browse all the app that are there.

The app list is updated in real-time by an API system, so all new applications will be pushed immediately!

I hope that you'll enjoy my new app, if you want you can leave a review or a critique here too, i'll appreciate it, thanks!

Features:

★ Updated real-time with new Material Apps

★ Clean and Material UI

★ Apps divided in 14 categories

★ Apps rating

★ Apps screens

Ever since upgrading to WM6, I have lost the ability to turn cold boot my phone without first removing the SD card. If I have the SD card inserted, I get rebooting loops. Can I fix this?

[HTC Excalibur] jt76542:
It has????

What's the solution????
[HTC Excalibur] merwin:
I'm pretty sure it's been fixed for the official HTC release of WM6, but not positive. The other way to fix it would be to use SKTools Lite to clear the duplicates out of the notification queue and then remove the Microsoft Live service from the registry. You'll lose the Microsoft Live messenger, but you'll gain your phone back :)
[HTC Excalibur] indiekiduk:
yep merwin has written the solution in detail in 2 other threads, just search for boot loop in the excalibur forum.
