[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] shadowsami4:
I wonder if there are any possibilities or additional features with our new bluetooth Spen ?

At the moment we can use it for camera, browser, video player, music .... but it's only for stock samsung apps or gapps.

So is there any app making it usable with other apps ? Like play/pause in MxPlayer or VLC

Or maybe some other uses i didn't imagine. Maybe with root ?

Thanks for your answers

Hi everyone!

I am trying to build AICP for the Samsung S5 klte and I'm running into a problam. I have synced the repo, but when I enter " breakfast device_samsung_klte

"

I would like to deny access to GPS for Google play services but I can not do it. On my Nexus 5x it was easy, but here I do not know if it is a issue of OnePlus or Pie.

When I use my nav app Sygic it inform me that Google play services use my GPS too. But in the permission settings there is not location option for this app. I can switch off this value for example for Google Play, Pay or Google app.

[Honor 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] leAndroid91:
Hi guys i was just debloating my Honor 10

I uninstalled the Huawei calendar and contact app and after rebooting the dialer app in the bottom left corner has changed to the green android icon and when clicking on it the dialog says app not installed.

Is the Huawei dialer app integrated in their contact app?

The google contacts app is still on my phone and working.

If i call a contact from the google contacts app the call is still working.

I can also still receive calls and the screen showing up looks like the Huawei dialer app when calling.

I tried to install the google stock android dialer app, but this installation failed.

Unfortunately i don't have a backup of Huawei's contacts app.

Can someone provide the Huawei contact apk to me? I didn't found it on google.

I would like to see if reinstalling this app will fix my issue.

Thanks!
[Honor 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Raikuna:
Most oem phone apps are connected to their contacts app. I cant upload an apk for you. But if you want to fix this issue just do a factory reset. All apps should be back again and this time dont remove contacts. :laugh:

To install Google stock phone app you just have to manually move the app to system unlike clicking on install button. :)

Move it /system /app
[Honor 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] leAndroid91:
i moved the apk to /system/app but after rebooting it disappeared.

Is this really the right path? I assume it has to be something like /system/app/contactAppFolder

Yeah sorry my bad.

System /priv app/ make a folder Contacts / move apk here with name as Contacts

Don't forget to Change permissions
[Honor 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] leAndroid91:
I could place the apk there and after a reboot the app icons of huwei phone and contact returned.

When i click them the app shows up for under a second an then close immediately.

The phone and contact apps are not showing up in that app drawer where i can see the latest apps.

Permissions have been set according the other folders and apps in system/piv-app/

I also tried full permissions but it still doesn't work.

I noticed that in the other folder there a sub folder oat/arm64 an in this folder there are odex and vdex files.

Put the lib folder(extract the zip) inside the contact folder . Should work!

Put the permission correctly.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:14 PM ----------

As for oat folder, it is basically cache so no need to worry.

If you want to, just make a oat folder with similar structure in the contact folder but I don't think it matter.

Sorry I forgot to sent lib folder earlier
[Honor 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] leAndroid91:

Hi!

I've had my Galaxy S9 (SM-G960F) for about 2 weeks, loving it so far, but I'm a bit worried about the Sim lock thing so I have a few questions and I'd appreciate some answers and they're as following:

1. Since it's the Exynos version. Is it possible to use a Sim card inside the US (any carrier)?

2. Will it be fully functional (data, SMS and cellular calls)?

3. If not, is it possible to "unlock" the phone?

4. How to check bootloader status and if it's locked/unlocked/unlockable?

[Tasker Tips & Tricks] LeBobbo:
Hi,

Being able to disable the keyguard can be useful in some situations. For instance, you may want to keep your device unlock when staying at home. The common way to do this is to use the Tasker plugin SecureTask. The plugin has first to be set as device owner (see baldapps.altervista.org/deviceowner.html for the details). Unfortunately, some of the Samsung devices with Oreo do not allow device administrator. The device is locked with the following message "Unauthorized software has been installed on your device. Workspace has been locked to prevent unauthorized access. Contant your admin".

I found another way to disable the keyguard with the command "locksettings" for devices with Android Oreo or newer. To create a action to disable the keyguard, you have to choose: Create a new Action -> Category Code -> Run Shell. Then, the command text field should contain the following code: "locksettings clear --old XXXX" with XXXX being your pin code. For the action to enable the keyguard, the code should be "locksettings set-pin XXXX". You have to use root for both of these actions. "locksettings" can also be used with pattern and password. See here: android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/android-8.0.0_r1/cmds/locksettings/src/com/android/commands/locksettings/LockSettingsCmd.java.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Tatsch:
There is an easy reliable workaround for non-root devices:

When at Home-WLAN or in car:

Just use tasker's custom settings to set the "lock_screen_lock_after_timeout" to e.g. 4 hours.

This means that after display off the device is unlocked for 4 hours. When you leave home or car, just the the value back to 30 sec.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] LeBobbo:
If my understanding is correct, changing the value of "lock_screen_lock_after_timeout" does not actually unlock the device. You still need to unlock and then it will stay unlocked for the duration specified by lock_screen_lock_after_timeout. The command "locksettings" completely disable the keyguard.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Tatsch:
Of course, but for me that doesn't matter in everyday life. If the phone is currently locked, a one-time unlock is sufficient.

The main thing is that the device is always unlocked at home and in the car.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] lucaterpirla:
Do you think it would be possible to disable the lockscreen of an oreo rooted phone without knowing if it is protected by a pattern or a pin or a password? Disabling keyguard with the secure settings app does not work.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] LeBobbo:
Yes, it is possible. But, you have to provide the pin code, pattern code or password.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] ktmom:
I have previously posted my method of "disabling" lock screen when I'm at home. I use a stupid silly long lock screen after sleep time out. This is executed as a run shell action with run as root enabled.

To "disable" the lock screen (delay for 24 hours after sleep);

settings put secure lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 86400000

Then to enable the lock after screen off (delay 5 seconds after sleep);

settings put secure lock_screen_lock_after_timeout 5000

This method,while a bit goofy, has been working reliably for me since Lollipop on an N6 and I'm currently on Pie on an essential PH-1.

There is also the tried and true Smart Lock feature in modern Android.

I'm not at all sure it will work on every device, and likely not on Samsung touchwiz devices.

[MENTION=6617276]ktmom[/MENTION]

This is what I described above.

But there is no need to be rooted.

Use instead Tasker's "Custom Setting".
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] ktmom:
You either must be rooted (and tick the user root option) or use ADB and give write settings permission to Tasker (or AutoTools).

There are several ways to achieve the same goal these days.

My answer was really directed to a specific question describing a rooted phone [emoji6]

"find somebody that you think is undeserving of your compassion and give it to them" - Christian Picciolini
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Tatsch:
[MENTION=6617276]ktmom[/MENTION] Ok. But many other users will read this thread. And it's much easier just executing one adb-command than rooting the phone.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] sdfgsteve:
This is a very elegant solution. I've been using SecureTask for years, but for some reason now the broadcast for disable keyguard isn't being sent (no idea why). Is it supposed to remove the lockscreen completely, or just disable the keyguard? Currently it will remove the passcode fine, but I still have to slide up to unlock.

So just run that when the display turns on?

Also how on earth do I import that without it overwriting everything else I've ever done? XD
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] LeBobbo:
You need to run this when you want to unlock your phone (disable the pattern lock and dismiss the keyguard).

Copy/paste the xml data to a text file. The file name should be whatever_you_like.tsk.xml. You need to replace the ???? in the file with your pattern code. You can then import this file into tasker. You should consult the user manual of Tasker for this.

Wysłane z mojego LG-H850 przy użyciu Tapatalka
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] LeBobbo:
To lock your phone, you have to

- Execute "locksettings set-pattern ?????? --old ??????" to change the lock screen pattern or "locksettings set-password ???? --old ????" to change the lock screen pin. This is needed in case you have removed the pin code or the pattern code.

- Use this action "System Lock" in Tasker.
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Luiss64:
Let me introduce myself: Huawei P20 lite, android Pie 9, EMUI 9.1, SecureTask installed as a device owner.

The device is PIN protected, and I have activated all fingerprint functions. A couple of apps are password protected, and unlocking them is also possible with fingerprints stored on the device (and it's very convenient!). I am developing something in Tasker, and the unlocking is done through SecureTask, which works very well, and offers two possibilities: Keyguard disable and Password clear, both valid. However, in both methods, it is as if the password lock setting is deleted from the android settings menu. Obviously with the set password (always of SecureTask) the disappeared item is immediately restored.

There is however a side effect of this menu transition: the loss of fingerprint unlocking settings of the apps that provide it. For each of them I have to go back to their settings and reactivate their function, after each unlocking of the device with SecureTask!

Is there any different command in SecureTask that does an actual unlock, not a pwd suppression in android settings?

Is there a workaround to obtain an actual unlock, without loss for (provided) apps's fingerprint unlocking settings?

Thanks
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] Luiss64:
I answer myself ... I think I have found a workaround for the problem.

I share the discovery, in case someone else has the same needs. It is a ready-to-use action [/ I] called "Enter_Your_PIN".

It is based on Autoinput and, in my case, it is not a problem since I also have that plug-in.

Enter_Your_PIN must be imported directly into the tasker, into the active project. Reading the content, after the import, you will find different labels that make you understand how it should be used.

Basically you will have to manually create two new variables% K .... (you can read the exact names in the labels), where to insert the pin which will then be used by Enter_Your_PIN ....

Hi
[Tasker Tips & Tricks] hyborian:
I use a pin and fingerprints for unlocking. My favored way is also to use AutoInput, no locksettings to edit/delete, fingerprints will be intact. So it's just letting Tasker type in the pin. Autoinput plugin must have all permissions of course.

It is simple on my phones, maybe similar to what your read-made action does. My task is basically:

Turn on screen

Run Shell : wm dismiss-keyguard

*Since I use a pin with 4 numbers, I just create an Autoinput action for each number (4 Autoinput actions) where each is :

Type : Id

Value: com.android.systemui:id/key0 (the number after key is from 0 to 9, just replace accordingly)

Action : Click

Wait 1 second or 500ms after each Autoinput action.

Hello , in my Profile : WHEN DISPLAY ON., I use task Run Shell : wm dismiss-keyguard ( Use: Root )
