[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emrexcem:
Hey guys, I might have made a big mistake. I am currently using Pixel XL as my daily driver for a couple months. My girlfriend broke her iphone and needed a replacement for a couple days so without thinking I picked up my old LG g4 and set a new account to gave it to her. Because, well I was trying to be a good boyfriend, but I didn't think it through. That phone is filled with *cough* *cough* Sensitive pictures and videos in the gallery and in the hide it pro app that could compromise the entire relationship. I have been freaking about this for an hour and so and I need help. I opened another account on my pixel and couldn't see my pictures, which was reassuring, but I can't stop but thinking that it's not the case with the LG can you guys check it for me so I can have a plan of action. PS she has really limited knowledge of the android ecosystem and any sort of technology in general.

PS** The main account is password protected and she doesn't know the passcode. PS*** The only think I can think of to keep her from seeing them is factory resetting the phone remotely which I am not willing to do without absolute proof.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
From expierience hide it pro changes the file name extensions so no other app sees them. I feel ya brother. The g4 should nativly support multi user. Why not tell her u need it do get some old downloads or backups off it and either wipe the hide it pro app or transfer the files real quick to anther sd card and delete.

Lol i guess i should say tsk tsk bad morals shouldnt be hiding stuff but i know how it it my wife is a evil evil woman sometimes i love her to death. But even the sight of a webpage or something. Like we dont watch american pie movies in our house because she throw a fit when a set of naked titties are on the tv. So i just gave it up dont even try anymore lol.

Now my wife managed to find out what hide it pro was found where the files are saved too so i couldnt even use it anymore if i wanted to

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:34 PM ----------

If she aint all tech savvy tell her some new xda app just come out or somthing to make the battery last longer and u need to plug it in to pc adb it tell her takes 20 or 30 min. Or something along that line. Or trying to shut down the bootloopable cores hell of she wasnt around when u got the g4 u got it used or somethin. Unless theyre pics of u in it

Stay cool and calm lol. Dont be all jittery or shell know somthins wrong
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emrexcem:
Well, you are right with the hide it pro app but my main concern is the gallery app. If you currently have a LG G4 on hand would you please create another user and check if the pictures in the gallery are shared or not it is kind of vital and I can't see her until tomorrow so I can't do things you suggested and I kinda need to know to sleep comfortably at night. :)
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
yeah give me a sec mines about dead so i put it up my g4 is almost 2 years old and near the end of her long life cycle as most dont make 1 year mines a old lady lol`
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emrexcem:
Okay I will be waiting, and thanks for the trouble you took. BTW my g4 is almost 2 years old as well but LG makes sturdy phones that keep working unless constant abuse :D
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheMadScientist:
man i cant help you i never used it on mine and mines one of the ones on lolipop

that guest mode isnt active on and itll take me a while to load it up like i said she was on the shelf i was doing some testinf for downgrading bl and bricked it so its not even rooted or rommed rite now
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steadfasterX:
Multiple users are handled like this in Android:

Each user has its own internal storage path.

E.g. /data/media/0 is the first user path always.

When you add another user he/she will get /data/media/10 or 1 or whatever the ROM says.

The result:

Each user can have its OWN pic gallery and apps

So a new user will not see any pics from the other user in the gallery... As long as no app get installed which accesses e.g. all pics on the external sd...!

Keep in mind that every user has in general full access to the device. Means:

When the second user installs an advanced file explorer he/she could navigate to the folder of the first user and access all folders from him!

When the gallery app scans the whole system you cannot be sure it will not find all..

So at the end the android multi user concept is not a full protection between the both accounts. Well as long as the second one is not a GUEST account.

So.. at the end you're not safe.

Hello all! So, after pulling my hair out trying to root this S7E on 6.0.1 with engboot and failing(if I'm just being dumb about that please let me know), I upgraded to 7.0 and was finally able to achieve root! However, after trying to flash the Echoed rom I get stuck in a boot loop at "Powered by Android" screen. I'm unsure of what to do, as I've tried two different times to flash with the same result.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] xjimmy:
It's because echoed is a marshmallow Rom, and you're on nougat. Once you update, you can't go back. You'll have to flash the stock nougat firmware again and root again if you want root. I believe echoed has a nougat Rom out on their website, but I'm pretty sure it's not for at&t s7 or s7 edge.

That makes sense. Do you happen to know why I get stuck in a boot loop when I flash the engboot on marshmallow? I can't seem to find a solution for that.

Hey guys! After updating Telegram to the latest version, 4.0, the app's icon doesn't have a frame, even though I have selected "icons with frames" in settings since I started using the phone. I already tried reinstalling the app, rebooting the phone as well as going back and forth between "icons only" and "icons with frames" in settings. Nothing solves the problem.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] SirVss:
After a Nougat April security patch update deliver recently by Samsung I face (me & many others) with this annoying error, when I try to update (from apkmirrors) a system app "app not installed the package conflicts with an existing package by the same name".

Even if I uninstall previous version of the app the error still persist !

Before upgraded, when I run January released I did not have any kind of problem updating apps.

There is a technical logic in these restrain policy for April patch or is just a random bull**** ?

If you ask me, Samsung afraid S7e users implement on their terminals S8 ported apps and therefore the S7e owners will pass the S8/S8+ generation, but this is just me !

I hope this is just temporary and not permanent and the further May release will fix this for good !

Until then, there is some tested and proven workaround in order to fix this...?

Thanks !

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] jaanui1:
Go to Settings of your phone and look for an option that lists all applications in your phone and try to find whether the application that you are trying to install is already listed. If it is, then uninstall it from there.

Usually uninstalling by following step 1 removes the application from your phone however, if you are using a tablet, sometimes Android still keeps the APK file in the downloaded directory. So come out of settings and find out "All files" folder. Look for your app's APK in "downloaded" folder inside "All files" folder and remove it from there too.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] arnab06:
Try this.... It works 100%

So those who are trying this like me but the result is BIG Zero here I'm sharing something which worked for me for my S7 edge exynos device. I hope this will also work for your device.

First you need to download APKinstaller PC version. This will install apk over USB.

Then adb drivers for your pc to connect your smartphone to pc (I hope you know it better than me).

Download for windows version and install with / run with admin rights.

Then connect your phone with USB debugging option enabled (in developer mode).

In that application click on the Installer (top left side green icon) and browse the apk file.

Then the apk will be loaded, select it and then press install button.

Wait for sometime then you will that the apk has been installed into your device without any problem.

Easy fix (remove any alternate profiles)

Hi guys,

I just saw this thread and have notices the fix doesn't work for everyone. For the few that still can t install any updates of a certain app due to package name conflict. This secondary issue for the few is actually an error in the code for that update and every update since. The way to get around it is remove any secondary profiles or apps with profiles I.E.. MY KNOX app. Once u uninstall any app with a profile involved everything will install as it used too. What is happening is everything you download leaves small nuggets behind in these secure profiles. Hence your operating system thinks that you already have an app with this exact same package name. So just uninstall any secondary profiles or apps with profiles like my Knox, and all will work like normal again.

Hello,

A year ago, I successfully installed TouchWiz Home for S8, but after factory resetting my Note 5 yesterday, I couldn't get the apk installed.

I neither had the secure boot option, nor could install the app just after restarting the phone.

Just a couple minutes ago, I searched for TouchWiz Home apk for Note 8, selected one randomly and downloaded it. It turned out that it worked perfectly.

I think we ought to find the apk that is compatible in some way I cannot think of.

You can find the apk file in this link.

You have 2 configurations of audio. One in the phone and, normally, one of the bluetooth. The bluetooth audio is at the loudest setting too? If it is, try the bluetooth in other phone. If doesn't work, try to hard reset the phone. There are some WM phones that the audio became inaudible for nothing, and after a reset, became normal.

Hope it works.

Sure,

In some brands, the bluetooth doesn't control de volume of the phone, so when in use, press one of the two buttons of it. One is for raise volume and the other is to down the volume. I know it's common in Motorola's bluetooth.

The phone WM goes until 5 the volume, but normally, some bluetooth have 8 or 10 sound level.

Try this and feedback me if it worked, or, send me a pm in other language :D
