Skyhook Wireless - G1 Apps and Games

Just read about Locale using Skyhook so I took a look, and it tells me that ShopSavvy is already using Skyhook.
My question is, is there something we need to do on our end to get the Skyhook integration? I see no mention of Skyhook in the changelog for ShopSavvy, and Locale hasn't had any updates since the Skyhook announcement.

[app] GoogleMaps 3.0.1.5

If you're like me you get really pissed that you can't download GMM [easily] on Opera or PIE6 or your computer without spoofing your user agent. So because I love you guys and I like starting threads I went onto Fmstrat's badass RegistryChanger site to create an IE version rollback (attached) and got the cab for the latest Google Maps, v3.0.1.5, for y'all to download here.
No idea what improvements this has over 3.0.1.4, probably nothing you'll notice, but hey, this is xda, gotta have the latest build of anything, right?
Love, Doug
Is there anyway to get gmaps to automatically upgrade itself? I couldn't find the option anywhere.
Nope, not to my knowledge, and given that putting an auto-update thing for a popular program weighing in at a megabyte for cell phones that often have slow connections or expensive connections (like when people travel overseas), you'll get too many people complaining about sneaky updating tactics and writing slashdot articles. Not to mention 99% of gmm users out there wouldn't notice the difference between this version and a several month old version and it probably wouldn't generate much more revenue for Google to force (or assist) everybody to update to the newest build.
On the other hand, it would be nice for us if we could get the google people to give this thing apptodate support. Why not. It would of course also be nice if a lot more devs would do that. Doesn't sound too hard... c'mon, devs, apptodate.
@d0ugie:
Appreciate the find ... do you know if it includes Latitudes?
Cheers,
Yes, it's got Latitude. Just like Street View, they'll soon stop going out of their way to announce that each version has Latitude.

[Q] Gingerbread, SIP/VoIP and people from outside the US

I'm sorry if this has already been debated elsewhere. I did search and try to locate threads on this already, but didn't come up with anything which (seemed) relevant to this problem.
If anyone has a link handy for another thread which already discusses this, I'll close the thread if that is wanted.
With that said... Here's my issue.
As stated elsewhere, one of the main things which excited me about Gingerbread was the ability to do native SIP dialing. About time, I say! Now I've flashed Gingerbread on my SGS and so far the results has been below underwhelming.
From what I can tell this is how you get SIP/VoIP/Internet calling on your phone using Gingerbread:
1. Sign up for Google Voice.
2. Install Google Voice and sign in.
3. Voila. Your Gingerbread Android-device now has a bunch of SIP settings and options.
This is ofcourse, unless your manufacturer has somehow crippled your phone's software.
That might be the case with Samsung's firmware, but I wouldn't know because the steps outlined above is absolutely impossible for anyone outside the US. You cannot sign up for Google Voice anywhere else. End of story.
So. Is this for real? Did Google release a smartphone OS for worldwide consumption, touting "native SIP", native internet calling as feature and then implement it in a way which means it will only work in one country, all else be damned?
I seriously find this very hard to believe. There has to be a way to get this functionality up and running otherwise. Seriously? The internet maestros at Google implements a core OS-level function tied to (one) geo-location? Is third-party solutions ala Sipdroid the solution for everyone else?
So... Please tell me I am completely mistaken and that there are steps for getting SIP running on my phone, despite me not have an adress of residency ending in "US".
Any hints or links in any direction so that I can actually get to try this out would be über appreciated.
Bump.
I realize posting this while Europa were getting ready for sleep and only US-people were around might have been bad timing.
Just bumping this again to see if there's any more response. I can't seriously be the only one wondering about this.
If bumping is severely against forum policies, let me know and I'll make a note of it and wont do it again.

Use this zip as an update from CWM recovery, enables the menu "Internet call settings" under "Call settings".
Works on odex and deodex ROMS [I have the same JVB as the OP]
Problem solved
Thanks Vinnie.
Since I already have some framework-res.apk dependent mods, I just pushed the permissions-file as mentioned in that thread, and now I have "Internet calling options" available.
Yes, I realize this will only work while on wifi and SIP over 3G will be disabled, but at least it gives me something to experiment with so that later I will know if handing over my other mods for 3G VoIP/SIP will be worth it.
Thanks for the response and handy link. Now if XDA had better search, I might not have needed to pollute the forums with duplicates like this
Edit: Checked the entire thread and saw that there is an update.zip with eyecandy as well. Will try it out later.

[Q] [WP8.1] share gps location over bluetooth

is it going to be possible? anybody know?
Do you mean continuously (as in, use the phone as a Bluetooth GPS speaking a protocol like NMEA)? I don't believe it's built in, but you could probably write an app to do it (the BT interface is, I think, available to app developers). There might even already be such an app.
Do you mean one-time (like the way you can send your location in an SMS, but via Bluetooth instead)? Nothing I know of comes to mind, so you'd probably need an app for that too. That one seems less useful, though; most devices that have BT either already have their own GPS (or otherwise know approximately where they are anyhow) or are trying to track their own motion and would want continuous updates.

continuously, sharing GPS location with another device over Bluetooth. I wish I could write an app like that but I can't program
thanks for the answer gd2d, I hope its possible. I also hope that the ability/app is not limited to having to be active and not running in the background (ie get a text, respond to it and lose your location)
p.s. No app "currently" exists,,,,, at least from what I've searched in the store
BTW, WP8.1 isn't out yet, or even in public pre-release. We know some of the features that will be added, but not all of them. To the best of my knowledge, this isn't on the known list. Anyhow, WP8.1 won't release for probably another few months, even in preview form (though I could be mistaken).

SNOOPSNITCH on the Note4 (detects imsi catcher and SS7 attacks)

Do you know SNOOPSNITCH?
SnoopSnitch is an Android app that collects and analyzes mobile radio data to make you aware of your mobile network security and to warn you about threats like fake base stations (IMSI catchers), user tracking and over-the-air updates. With SnoopSnitch you can use the data collected in the GSM Security Map at gsmmap.org and contribute your own data to GSM Map.
Source and more information can be found here:
https://opensource.srlabs.de/projects/snoopsnitch
The important part is now, that although the Note4 should be generally supported, it does not work!
See Compatible Device List here:
https://opensource.srlabs.de/projects/snoopsnitch/wiki/DeviceList
Something in our stock rom may be missing (the diag kernel driver?), or there may be any other problem!
What do you think?
Or does someone has it up and running?
I think this would be interesting for a lot of people, especially because "big brother" is spying on us more and more,
and if that is the case it would be handy to have at least the knowledge that this is happening! :angel:
worthless. it requires root and only works on snagdragons. it also doesnt detect fake basestations (they can just upload the data to gsmmap or spoof the gsmmap requests) and any baseband attacks will go completely undetected.
works now since latest update!
@zurkx: why do you think it isn't able to detect fake basestations?
because its relying on a 3rd party database. requests to which can also be spoofed. plus there are plenty of real "fake" basestations. basically everytime they roll out a mobile basestation for any event its not in the db and flagged as a fake.
now if there was an actual method of telling a real from a fake basestation that would be worth installing.
Pretty please port this over to all note 5s. You'll have panties over your head for months.:laugh:

Hide GPS for betting

Hello, have some troubles with hiding on betting resources. My main goal to provide fake location for bet365. Main problem Firefox browser always asking ´´Allow bet365.es:443 to use your location?". Somehow I need to confirm this and provide fake gps.
I use Magisk+Hide my app list+Fake location and turn down all geoservices on my phone. Sure I try different option and proxy, but it give me a same thing - block my account.
If you have any ideas have to resolve please wrote on DM. I`m ready to cooperate.
Have you tried using a VPN to change your IP address instead of faking your GPS location? That might be a more effective solution. Additionally, some browsers have a built-in feature to prevent websites from accessing your location, so you might want to check your browser settings to see if that option is available. Good luck with resolving your issue! By the way, have you considered trying out some online casino sites? canlı casino siteleri can be a fun and exciting way to gamble from the comfort of your own home.

First of all, I need to hide my current location complex and all available option for Magisk hiding are tried
Thanks for sharing this solution. I'll definitely give your method a try.
Thanks for sharing your experience and seeking help with hiding your GPS on betting resources. I'm relatively new to gambling and sports betting myself, but I understand the importance of privacy and finding workarounds.
While I can't provide a direct solution here, I recently discovered a sports betting site called Bet365 that seems reliable. They offer a wide range of options and could potentially provide a solution or guidance for your situation. You can check them out at https://betcanada365.ca/sportsbook-review/bet365
What I use is Fake GPS Joystick and set this as my a fake mock location in developer setting, then you can either use the Hide Mock Location xposed module, or a Smali editor to fake mock locations.
With the Fake GPS Joystick app, you can set your location anywhere on the map easily, set up automatic routes, waypoints etc.
This way the whole system thinks you are at the set location and no app knows its not the true location.
Superbetting is also a reliable sports betting website
