[Google Pixel 7 Pro] GuyInDogSuit:
I was already aware of the dual-SIM thing, even before I got the P7 Pro, as I did research, but I'm trying to use my physical SIM with my T-Mobile eSIM. Problem is, I can't seem to do it, regardless of whether I can get it provisioned to this phone because T-Mobile won't SIM unlock it (yet) as they keep repeating that it needs to be paid off. I've explained to them why, but, no luck. Which is unfortunate as the phone they sent me, the Nokia G300, when they were purchased by Verizon and began to offer 5G, reallllllly sucks, and I don't even GET 5G with it.... It wasn't even the phone I ordered, on top of that. I asked for one of the Motorola ones. They only offered two kinds. How did they even mess that up? sigh

I tried the "uninstall OOBE" trick on the Pixel, which worked, but my eSIM would not get a connection when I did.

Any ideas?

#ask

My cellphone has an error suddenly all of my social media get weird every time I want to upload a file, all files that are opened in the social media file manager get messed up, and the description of all files becomes (one date is October 17, 2022) which says "yesterday", all of them so "yesterday".

In the normal gallery, it's just that when you open Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok, etc., there is one date for the photo/video data description.

The problem is that I don't know the keywords when I want to search on Google, so I ask here.

Thanks.

Detailed list of images in the gallery (short by time/date)

List details when selecting files on social media (chaotic, not short by time/date).
[General Questions and Answers] Fytdyh:
When uploading files, try using the same gallery app with everything. In this case Facebook tries to use the file manager recent files. Select your gallery app from within there and you will see it as usual
[General Questions and Answers] Magggenta:
I'm still wondering with all this, is there a way to make all the time data back to normal as in the gallery or change the file manager used by Facebook?
[General Questions and Answers] Fytdyh:
Did this problem occur after you have updated your ROM? A new version of Android?
[General Questions and Answers] Magggenta:
No, I didn't change my rom and for the problem of updating my Android, it was updated a few days ago. For more information, photos on Facebook file manager that have captions (17 october) in the original gallery are different from Facebook

I remember trying https://stackoverflow.com/questions...the-files-in-android-phone-by-using-adb-shell . Then I tried to unlock OEM, and reboot the device using ADB.

[Touch Pro, Fuze General] pandaboyy:
Hi, I just got my AT&T fuze today... just opened it. I like the phone a lot, although I missed the scroll and the picture buttons. However, it's really anoying to have all those AT&T pre-installed software and demo. Is there a way I can remove it all without uninstalling the TouchFlo?

The reason I haven't flashed any ROM yet, is because I don't know which one is the most stable and two, I don't want to play with it yet.

Please tell me how to remove all softwares pre-install, except for TouchFlo.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] prubin:
go to the Windows directory>Start Menu>Programs and remove

then for Java - open and remove
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] ngravatt:
there are two things you can do. remove the icon in your menus or actually remove the program.

i left the actual programs installed, but removed the icons of all the crap software and games i dont want.

use file explorer and browse over to windows\start menu\Programs and remove all the 'shortcuts' to the programs you dont want. now they will not appear in your programs menu.

do the same for

windows\start menu\programs\games & apps

windows\start menu\programs\messaging

if you want to delete the actual program file, most of them are stored in the \windows directory.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] grangermoch:
Hi guys,

I'm coming from 10 years on Samsung Galaxy devices and am still getting used to the Pixel experience.

One thing that I just can't understand is the fact that in order to close all running/recent apps, I have to scroll allll the way over to the left before I have the option to Clear all apps. In comparison, Samsung shows this option immediately and without any scrolling required. What compounds this frustration is the ongoing scroll issues others have reported on the Pixel 7 Pro. Sometimes it takes me literally 10+ seconds to scroll all the way to the left to access the Clear all button.

Why wouldn't Google place this option where the Screenshot and Select buttons are??

View attachment 5738219

Is there any means of automating closing apps? Such as using an intent with Tasker that I could then assign to a gesture with Nova Launcher? Thanks.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] xgerryx:
Yea this is very dumb. I'm also hoping for a mod that can bring back the vertical recents menu. I hate the horizontal one, it sucks.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
It's not necessary anymore. The phone has 12GB of RAM and intelligent background process management. If there is an app that's draining your battery in the background, go to the app's icon and long press then hit the info button. Tap battery and then tap restricted and it will no longer be able to drain your battery in the background (but it will often delay notifications).

I was hopping all around my phone multitasking yesterday for a few hours, came back to DuckDuckGo where I had a page loaded up, and it didn't even reload despite hours of Chrome and other app usage.

The close all apps button is a relic from a different time and should really be removed in flagships. It just uses even more CPU cycles to reload the app than if you just leave it there in memory.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] hand-filer:
Pixel doesn't have it so all flagships should do away with it? Maybe Pixel isn't a flagship phone.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
All flagships should get rid of it because it's not necessary with how much memory they have. People who are used to using it are just wasting extra CPU cycles when they reload the apps. Let the phone manage processes itself.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jaseman:
10 seconds to scroll all the way to the left? Ummmm, that would equate to several hundred open apps LOL - SMH

Otherwise I too would like to see the clear all on the first screen.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] iRhyiku:
The answer is - Don't.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Namelesswonder:
AOSP Mods has an option to add a clear all button to the recents page bar. Requires Magisk and LSPosed.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] JakeDHS07:
Wait does not everyone have the clear all option if they go to the left in recent? I've had that for awhile and thought it was just part of the stock OS now
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
It's there but you have to scroll through all your open apps to get there.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Virus:
Yah not a fan of this feature being left out !
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] grangermoch:
Ummmm did you read my comment about the scrolling inconsistencies many Pixel 7 users are experiencing? Or watch the video that demonstrates what I'm talking about? It's less about how many apps are open and more about the fact that it can require very precise swipes to actually advance from app to app. Sure, the more apps you have open the longer it would take to reach the Clear All button, but I definitely don't have hundreds of apps...

https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/y701kr
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] grangermoch:
This is a valid point and I certainly don't disagree. I should have clarified that I am not clearing the apps for performance or battery conservation reasons. It's more that I am admittedly obsessive about keeping my workspace "clean" and tidy :) I'm the same way about unread notifications and a messy notification panel. Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things, just a minor annoyance coming from a Samsung background.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] EtherealRemnant:
I can understand obsession. I get that way about unread notifications, especially when a red dot is involved lol. I didn't really think about it from the obsession point and I can understand that.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] hand-filer:
I use it for entirely different reasons like switching back and forth from app to app.

Inputting info from an email to a banking App etc.

All in an instance.

I find it laughable that it's only unnecessary when pixel doesn't have it.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] jaseman:
I have no scrolling issues no matter my resolution or refresh choices. Sorry!
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] grangermoch:
Glad to hear. No worries.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] sanriopurin:
I don't like the "Clear all" button is all the way to the left, and I'm one of those that experience scrolling issues.

I resort to simply doing a "super violent swipe to the right" and it always results in the "Clear all" button showing up in less than a second.

For my case, the question (of whether or not to clear all) is not about memory management. Let's say I want to close one particular app (Pokemon Go almost always the case for me). I hate scrolling/hunting down that particular app to close it.

So the much easier solution is simply to "Clear all".
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] efkosk:
I solved it through AOSP Mods.

[Google Pixel 7 Pro] schmeggy929:
For the life of me, I cannot get clear-all button to show up. toggled "Add clear-all button to bottom of recent page" multiple times, systemUI reboots and manual OS reboots. AOSP mods and nova Launcher.

Who has that many open apps in the first place?? Also, I don't have that scrolling issue. Mine is smooth and fast.
[Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Questions & Answers] The_hawkeye:
Hi,

Since this week I've gotten the update to One UI 4.1.1 (Android 12) and ever since I've installed it on my tablet, I'm getting the notification that I'm "connected without internet". I've looked around on the interwebs and it seems to be a very commen problem? However, the strangest thing is that I do have internet, I can surf any browse any site I want, I just always have the ! next to my wifi symbol.

Has anyone else had the same issue and found a way to solve it? I've already tried to:

Forget and re-add my wifi

Follow steps online, like static IP, tablec MAC (instead of spoofed)

Advice welcome! :-)

[Java for Android App Development] Flyview:
I'm seeing a small number of logcat entries from my apps since Android 13. I can only see a a couple of minutes before plugging the phone in to check the logcat. It's as if something is clearing the logcat. If I leave it plugged in it doesn't clear and I can see as far back as I could when I first plugged it in. I have increased the log buffer size in Developer Options to 4M and then 8M and it's still the same. I should be able to see logcat entries from the previous day with such big log buffers! It's also the same whether checking the logcat from Android Studio or from the phone itself with a logcat reader app (if I don't leave it open).

What should I check to solve this?
[Java for Android App Development] Flyview:
Anyone? Please help. This makes it very difficult to debug overnight.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wallor77:
Is it possible to track first time initialization as a tracd somewhere on system after phone has been reseted. But initialization was never complete. So in other words is it possible to see in log without complete the initialization again or after initialization to see the first attempt. For me the logical conclusion will be the app it self android set up app but i also think it will be changed in date as soon you complete the initialization which was canceled for the first time on second time. So how is it possible to trap first time initialization after reset without screwing it on second initialization so it doesnt change. Im question the date is not specific or targeted on when the device was resetef but rather when it was booted up and initialized (tried) after reset. Lets say is there any log in the system which can show this information. Without automaticly changing it on second attempt on initialization. The specifics would be the date and precise time given that in initialization it would fetch time data from when wifi if so was given permission to follow up on attemp of initialization. If wifi or data was not given at that time on first attemp i assume android would correct that date later on so instead of file or command ahowing 1.1.1970 it would change in calculation of when it was done by fetching the difference in time from that wornd date to current one on second initialization. I assume it would handle the date automatically only by difference in fetching but on second tought it is not possible that because i think how would phone know if it was off line or switched of to base that particular calculation. But lets say that phone did get acces to internet for time fetching. Does that particular date is stored anywhere on phone deep inside os. Even if battery didnt provide the power to maintain the following dates? Is this even possible?
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Finished writing up the Screenshot application this evening. You must have root to use this application:

If you want to know how I did it, just read from /dev/graphics/fb0

Screenshot application:

Choose how long to wait before taking a screenshot:

Once the screenshot is taken, you will get a toast on the bottom of your screen.

You can view the screenshot and save it to your SD card (from the menu):

Download it off the Market!
[G1 Apps and Games] xavier6303:
You rock....Keep it up!
[G1 Apps and Games] JesusFreke:
You know you can take screenshots with ddms (included in the sdk), right? I think it works even on a stock phone (although I'm not positive).

Granted, you have to have the phone plugged into your computer to take a screenshot with ddms, where your app would be able to take one anytime. So your approach would still be useful :)
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Yeah, thats actually how I figured out how to take screenshots: I dug through the DDMS code till I ended up at the SurfaceFlinger IPC Server.

But as you said, it is not ideal.
[G1 Apps and Games] JesusFreke:
Awww. I was expecting to see a preview inside a preview inside a preview.. etc. :D
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Hahha, that's actually what I had screenshotted at first, but then then I realized it looked really confusing.

You should download Superuser off this forum. It will ask for permission whenever su is used, and also won't break applications that use su.

koush thx for the great apps. i installed your superuser app and it works great and i installed your screenshot app which works great for people having a hard time with screenshot app to get it to work after you set in the time to take it you have to go to the screen you wont a pick of before the time is up or you will get a pick of the android with blue background koush can you if it is possible to make a app that can edit the apk files so images can be replaced in the phone i have had no luck resigning the apk. files using the signapk tool
[G1 Apps and Games] neerhaj:
koush, any chance you would release the source ?
[G1 Apps and Games] Ryanmo5:
I figured it might not be but hey worth asking anyways :)
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Sure. The C portion with the interesting bits is attached. It's pretty messy. I never bothered to clean it up after I got it working (lot of trial and error).

I've gotta optimize the pixel format conversion loop sometime. It's unnecessarily slow right now.
[G1 Apps and Games] Lieu10ant:
koush, i get the same error.
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
You have root, and no password protection on your su right? I would recommend installing Modified RC 30 v1.2 and Superuser.

Can you verify that the following file exists:

/system/bin/screenshot

Also, try running it. That is the native executable I wrote that scrapes the screen and writes screenshot.raw.
[G1 Apps and Games] Lieu10ant:
hmm well this is what happened, i finally got it to work btw.

so it wouldn't work at first (i tried like 8 times); i kept getting that error that i quoted.

then i went into terminal emulator and typed

mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

(dont ask me why) and then i exited the app, and opened ur app again, and it worked. tried it a second time, and it worked.

then i restarted my phone and ran ur app again without going into terminal emulator beforehand, and it worked. so i dont know what the problem was, maybe it was a random bug. but thats what i did, and got it to work.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
It needs to install a binary into /system to function. I assume you don't have Superuser 1.0.3 installed?
[G1 Apps and Games] Lieu10ant:
no, i do have it installed.
[G1 Apps and Games] neerhaj:
thanks. :)
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Oh, that's weird. The application should remount /system for you to install the binary; you shouldn't have had to do it yourself. I'll double check that code.
[G1 Apps and Games] hbguy:
Koush's nifty apps

Afternoon!

I have this issue with many of koush's applications on my phone. I have a feeling I'm missing something very simple.

I have Jf's modrc30 and change my su password to my own secret word using stericson's method with the following code:

su

mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

cd system/bin

cat su > (Place secret word here! Without parantheses, of course)

chmod 4755 (secret word)

(secret word)

rm su

exit

exit (Yes, type exit twice)

su

(secret word)

Now I downloaded koush's superuser and shell and have the following messages pop up:

1. when i run the application shell on g1 it says install super user but i already did

2. when i run superuser i get the following: cannot find /system/bin/su

3. when i run screenshot i get the following: broken pipe

any ideas gentlemen?

hbguy
[G1 Apps and Games] JesusFreke:
(deleted)

Nevermind. I didn't see the rest of the thread before posting :D
[G1 Apps and Games] JesusFreke:
HBguy, I think you need to re-install Koush's superuser. Follow the directions in his post (i.e. run the .bat or .sh file to install it)
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
It's looking for Superuser 1.0.3 (previous versions don't do su intercepts like the current version does). Of course it can't find su; you renamed it to your secret word. Like JF says, you need to uninstall any previous versions of Superuser and get the new one. If you're having trouble uninstalling just back up your data and reflash xda-dev RC30 v1.2.

Good luck!
[G1 Apps and Games] hbguy:
I've reflashed before but i didn't know I lose data, what kind of data do i lose? anything on sd i figured not an issue...

hbguy
[G1 Apps and Games] JesusFreke:
You don't lose any data when installing an update
[G1 Apps and Games] hbguy:
yeah i figured as much with anything you make :)

also re-flashing would be the same as booting up in safe mode then alt l then alt s and the update.zip should already be on the sd card if I did it once correct?
[G1 Apps and Games] defconoi:
please create a keybinding option so u can actively take screenshots
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Yeah, I looked into that. I can't figure out a way to have an Activity listen for keyboard events in the Background. I might be able to bind it to the Home or Call key, but I'm not sure. I'll take a further look.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
Have you tried setting up a BroadcastReceiver? The ACTION_CAMERA_BUTTON intent would be an appropriate one I think. In order to avoid interfereing with the actual usage of the camera, you could have a toggle in your app for registerReceiver and unregisterReceiver (as opposed to statically defining it in the xml).
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Oh, awesome! I was actually messing with broadcast receivers, but when I was running adb logcat, but I never saw that broadcast fire when I was testing the intents launched by various buttons. Thanks a ton for the tip! I'll implement it this way.
[G1 Apps and Games] hbguy:
jf and koush, simply magnificient!

its in working order, the re-flash did the trick! :)

good luck on finding a way to control the screen capture aside from the timed capture. this will make it very easy for all (developers and users) to show what is going on their phones with words AND PICTURES :)

Kudos!

hbguy
[G1 Apps and Games] Koush:
Ok, I just tested this: the camera application starts up too, and I end up taking a screenshot of the camera application... heh.

I threw a Sleep in the broadcast receiver to prevent the intent from being fired immediately, and that worked: I got the proper screenshot, but I still can't prevent Camera from popping up.
[G1 Apps and Games] jashsu:
I was going to suggest you try unregisterReceiver on CameraButtonIntentReceiver, but apparently you can't do it on statically defined intent receivers. Instead, try the setComponentEnabledSetting method in tandem with your registerReceiver and unregisterReceiver.
[G1 Apps and Games] Lieu10ant:
k i have an idea that MIGHT work and will be EXACTLY what everyone wants. first let me say, i'm not too good at modding/hacking so the way i explain wont be techincal.

First, is it possible to run some code with an app without the app actually opening ON the screen? like just have it run in the background without an interface.

so i was wondering/here is my idea: how about make that print screen app JUST run the capture screen code when u click it. lets say i clicked the icon in my menu of the "PrintScreen" app, it will take a pic what whatever i was doing THE INSTANT i clicked that icon. (but obviously what we would see is the icon being clicked) would that be possible? just when u click an app, an interface doesn't come up, it just runs the code.

now, to take that even farther, to get what we want: the G1 comes with a "quick launch" option, so all u have to do is assign the PrintScreen program to a shortcut, lets say we assign it to "Search + P", then all u gotta do is hit "Search + P" and the program will open up (without an interface) and will take the screen shot at that instant, so that way, you could be doing whatever on your phone, and just hit the shortcut, and BAM you'll have your screenshot.
