[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] gjanetzko:
first of all, I want to say THANKS for this great forum, which has helped me greatly souping up my Tilt, solving problems, getting great CABs, and just general info.

I had to hard-reset (removing bloatware) my device a few times, once because of a faulty usb connector, and I couldn't sync anymore. so now I'm stuck only with bluetooth (still trying to figure out if I can hardSPL and load a new ROM via bluetooth...)

I'm not in the US, so I don't use ATT/Cingular. and I ran into connection problems using GPRS. had all the right settings, but just couldn't connect to my service provider.

of course I searched endlessly on these forums, but couldn't fix my problem. today, found and ran removeHiddenProxy4CWS_0522 cab in the \Windows directory, and everything worked perfectly !!

I don't know if this is a Tilt-specific thing or not, just wanted to help out anyone having my same problem, of using a diff provider than whatever came pre-loaded...
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] 2Paulo:
On my Note 4 or my S5, one of them not sure which one, I could lock some things on clipboard and easily attached a number as a short cut, passing the locked message from the clipboard by pressing the corresponding number for 2 sec or more. I use to keep several under lock and would past by pressing that number, each number was attached to a message locked on the clipboard. Can't remember how to attach a number to one of the clipboard messages.

This was very useful to past instructions of long text.

Does anyone know how?

Thanks in advance

They will probably update their app now to block the cloned app but when that happens I'll tell you another method

Why am I doing this? I believe the root app should just be an interface between the user and the root app should not act on its own. The user should have choice of what root app he wants and trusts

Kingroot is untrustworthy. It has network access permission, which can be used to download malware. It's fake cleaner slows down your phone. The app runs in the background and drains your battery. It spams your notifications. On top of that it doesn't allow you to get rid of it. It gives a false sense of security. Kingroot is nothing but malware
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anupritaisno1:
On top of that it installs purify, another fake app that claims to boost your phone

It doesn't work. Android creates cache because Android needs it. If you clean this cache Android will generate the same cache again. What purify cleans is essential os files that the system has to regenerate

In doing this you waste battery and CPU cycles

And the newly created "junk" as claimed by purify is actually system critical cache that the system will be forced to rebuild if it's deleted

Never use their code, they will harm your device and you won't even know
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anupritaisno1:
As a kernel developer, I know how security on android works. Kingroot cannot introduce extra security

Let me phrase this in a noob-friendly way

Android is a dalvik and java hybrid virtual machine running on top of a Linux kernel

Let's call Android the userspace

Stuff like selinux can only protect the userspace. Selinux isolates every app so no app can tell what the other app is doing. This is where anti-virus fails. Selinux isn't going to allow your antivirus to see what other apps are doing

Antivirus does not decompile apks, all release apps made by developers experienced in their field use something called proguard which makes decompiling very hard

Let's imagine an ideal case where the userspace is protected. Even then your kernel is technically "outside" the java VM (not exactly but I'm explaining to the average Joe). The antivirus doesn't even know what the kernel is doing. Even with root selinux won't allow you to read the whole kernel log
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anupritaisno1:
Oh, you want to hear more?

Kingroot is not selinux-aware

Many apps won't be able to work if selinux is in place. SuperSU, magisk and phh are fully selinux-aware and all apps work reliably on them

In short kingroot can't even root correctly

[Android Developer Previews] smaug117:
I have a to chose between those Database :SQLite, Realm or Redux

witch one is the best for regular db update ?
[Android Developer Previews] phamduy.uit:
Hi smauh117, this is my opinion:

Persistence - why Realm, not Room (SQLite)?

Room Persistence Library is a part of google's android acrhitecture components announced Google IO 2017. It provides an abstraction layer over SQLite to allow fluent database access while harnessing the full power of SQLite, works well with LiveData.

But, SQLite is not simple, and relational database is not easy for a lot of android developers. In almost android application, local database is offen used for data caching only, and isn't center of bussiness processes.

Realm is a mobile database, a replacement of SQLite and ORMs. It is much more simple than SQLite, but really powerfull, easy to learn in minutes, not hours, for every mobile deveopers, both Android and iOS. Even "Realm Database is much faster than an ORM, and often faster than raw SQLite". With lazy data loading, your app can easy to archive better performance and user experience, it's really difficult if you are using Room.

Room works well with LiveData and lifecycle aware to prevent memory leaks, how about Realm ?

It dosen't matter, Realm can easy to adapt with LiveData, read more: Android Architecture Components and Realm.

For full article and source code, please visit my project here.

I also created this project to compare Realm and SQLite (with ROOM). Please checkout different branches.
[Android Developer Previews] NiftyUI:
AFAIK: Redux is an architectural pattern and not a database like Realm and what do you mean by "regular db update" ?

Anyway, Google's Room is a pretty good and established abstraction layer over SQLite on Android. I don't recommend Realm because there're a couple of pitfalls regarding multithreading. If you don't want to use SQLite + Room check out Objectbox.
[Android Developer Previews] @MJT:
SQLIte/Room may not be the best option depending upon what you actually mean by regular db update.

That is SQLite and therefore Room (Room being an abstraction layer over SQLite) is intended as an embedded database and thus each device has it's own distinct database and synchronisation with external data would have to be coded/developed, just pulling data from one source wouldn't be overly difficult. However, two/multiple way/device synchronisation would introduce complexities and hence why many solutions use other databases that are intended as a client server solution (e.g. MYSQL for example).

Firebase, not that I've used it, could be a solution as this is a client/server solution and is designed for Android use.

Personally I find native SQLite easier and therefore faster to use than Room. I've never used Realm.
[Android Developer Previews] soora:
it depends on your data architecture, if you'd like to use a non relational database just go with Realm, it's like mongo for mobile apps, otherwise there is Room, which represent the relational database by using Sqlite.
[Android Developer Previews] biunsan:
I completely agree. I use SQLite to save user preferences in the application. It is simple and stable.

And this is a cross-platform solution (not only for android).

[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] Atrax2010:
In the recent leaked photos it looked like it won't have a camera bump, but sadly it's still there. It doesn't seem as big as on XZs/Premium but still...

At least it's all metal this time arround, so that's a plus.

It will be about time to sell my XZ when this is released, I'll probably get it.

The way I see it it'll be a XZ Premium "compact" and without 4k, which is appealing for me, the Premium was way to big for me and the XZs made no sense as an upgrade from XZ, so...

In some photos it does look thicker than XZs/Premium, I hope they managed to fit it with bigger battery as well.
[Sony Xperia XZ Guides, News, & Discussion] 100rabh7791:
My problem with them is that they have Huge bezels but not bigger batteries ? .. i mean WTF when Sammy n LG can make their phones compact and put the same size battery ... then Either Sony shrink their bezels or give us a bigger battery ....

Imagine XZ with 3300mAH or 3500mAH .... this is totally possible ... I wonder what's eating the space inside the XZ while other manufac can easily fir evertything in a much compact ver

[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] Hummusman:
Hello

I'm trying to update from 41.2.A.7.35 to 41.A.7.53 using flashtool. I am relatively familiar with Flashtool at this point. I have installed stock firmwares a couple of times. Each time I have flashed a firmware i checked all boxes in the "Wipe" pane giving me a fresh install.

What i was curious about was, how can i prevent from formatting my drive each month when a new update rolls out. So what setting do i leave checked and unchecked in the flashtool? I'm mostly concerned with retaining apps and appdata along with settings and messages.

Thank you
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] el_campi:
I normally mark all in wipe section. Today i flash customized AU without problems.
[Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers] DHGE:
normally no wipe neccessary

If you do not upgrade the Android version, or go from 39... to 41... or you have "strange" behavior before or after the upgrade: do not wipe anything

Some partitions like /system are overwritten anyway. If you are root you might get away with wiping cache/dalvik if anything feels strange.

When switching ROMs or upgrading Android versions I use Titanium backup to shorten the process:

- look for unsaved apps after upgrade -> bloat candidates, let TB delete deal with them after looking at the list and deciding what to let go

- restore all user apps with data

- manually restore all logins of apps that have accounts e.g. email (the time consuming part)

I use Apex launcher and its setting are restored too, so I will have a familiar look and feel even on a different ROM.

[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] danageis:
I have been experiencing a very annoying issue with my moto g5+. Every time I enter the Google search app (swipe right on home screen, tap search bar, enter from recent menu, etc.) there is about a 5-10 second delay where the entire app will freeze. The app will become completely unresponsive, and after the 5-10 seconds everything I've been doing will happen all at once, like typing or scrolling.

This issue is very annoying, and perplexing to me as everything else with the phone is buttery smooth. If I initiate a search from Chrome instead of Google app, I have no issues. This issue has cropped up for me right around the time I downloaded the US OTA security patch, but this could be coincidental.

Has anyone else experienced this? Anyone have any ideas of how to fix it? So far, I have tried clearing cache in recovery menu with no avail. Phone is stock US non-Amazon without rooting or unlocked bootloader.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] nobody42:
I have experienced the same issue. Same phone and rom. Are you using an SD card as adopted memory? I haven't yet tried removing mine to see if that could be a factor.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Eggnog01:
Same here. I had it a couple months ago and then something recently caused it to reappear. I thought maybe a system update had resolved this but it came back again this weekend. I don't have an SD card at all.

Most success I found from clearing cache+data from the Launcher3 system app then restarting the phone. Settings --> Apps --> Show System. You lose your app icon placement but it immediately sped up the Google app.
