[howto] instamapper GPS tracker - disabling conspicuous mode without long runtime

The newer updates to Instamapper GPS tracker create a notification when you boot or whenever the tracker is started, even remotely. For me, this completely kills the ability for tracking a stolen phone. The app allows for you to disable conspicuous mode, but only after it's been up for a long time.
To get around this, I looked at the file /data/data/com.instamapper.gpstracker/shared_prefs/GPSTracker.xml and saw that there is a value for the runtime. It seems that the app updates this file when it exists and reads it when it starts. So , I increased the runtime value until it let me disable conspicuous mode, at which I saved the settings and saw a new line added to the file which disables conspicuous mode. Here is the end result:
Code:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' standalone='yes' ?>
<map>
<int name="bufferSize" value="10" />
<long name="deviceId" value="123456789" />
<boolean name="autoStart" value="false" />
<int name="trackerId" value="1" />
<boolean name="conspicuousMode" value="false" />
<int name="runtime" value="1000888949" />
<float name="minAccuracy" value="304.87805" />
<boolean name="remoteActivation" value="true" />
<int name="sendInterval" value="5" />
<int name="units" value="0" />
</map>
So, if you're rooted, you can edit this file and disable conspicuous mode without having to have a huge runtime (at least not an honest one).

Thanks for this information - I've just updated my file

worked great here
The runtime change made effect here, but I had to give it an even bigger value: 10000888949. The strangest part was that in an other smartphone, the .xml file was not created at all! So how could i possibly change it?

Text/Picture Messaging Not Downloading/Sending - AOSP Messaging

FYI - I was having issues with Text/Picture Messaging Not Downloading/Sending with AOSP ROMS.
After some heavy duty Googleing and putting the pieces together from numerous posts across different sites this is what I came up with...
Go to: Settings --> Mobile Networks --> Preferred Network Type
Select: CDMA+LTE/EVOD instead of Global and reboot. (I think AOSP ROMS are set to Global for the purpose of being used worldwide.)
Since I did this my picture messaging works perfectly! Be sure to check this each time you change ROMS or update your current installed ROM.
Hope this helps some folks...

I've tried to do this on CM11 and it did not help. I even tried to pull the APN list from the stock ROM and slap that in to the CM11 build, but it always just kept flashing "No APN Network" or something similar. I haven't tried SlimKat MMS yet.
I've heard using another messaging app for MMS works, such as the Verizon Messenger App.

I tried the APN thing and totally FUBARed my ROM and had to do a reflash...
I might try the Verizon Messenger App next time...

This worked for me! I'm using Stargo's CM11 (2014-02-12 nightly) and now I can send MMS using Go SMS Pro. I'd imagine Handcent works too. Thank you!

I'm gonna chime in.
From what I've found, modifying the APN settings is always a temporary fix or, if anything, a "placebo effect" of sorts. I'd like to consider myself a bit of a power user when it comes to my phone, so I tend to document and take notice of every bug that comes up, and I've found that the MMS issue is prevalent across every ROM for the Droid 4 - and it only ever happens with the AOSP Messaging app. MMS messaging, at least for the AOSP Messaging app, is always a hit-or-miss; when you reboot the phone, try to send an MMS message on the AOSP Messaging app. If it goes through, great! It works. If it doesn't go through, you'll need to reboot the phone until it works. The methods that I've found to "work" for others - erasing database files in the phone's filesystem, changing APN settings, et cetera - are always a hit-or-miss solution; correlation does not equal causation, and I've found that, regardless of the steps taken to fix the problem, it always comes down to the luck of the reboot. It's a snake oil fix, basically, and has nothing to do with fixing the problem, save for the fact that rebooting the phone has a chance to temporarily fix it, regardless of whether or not you changed APN settings or deleted a file or did whatever. In other words, rebooting the phone can either disable MMS for the remainder of its uptime, or enable it for the remainder of its uptime; it's always random.
I don't know why the AOSP Messenger app is the only SMS/MMS app that has this happen to it. I've heard that GoSMS, Handcent, and Verizon Messenger always work, but I'd rather not use a third-party texting app.
Tl;dr Until the bug is officially fixed in a future ROM build, the only way to temporarily "fix" the problem is to reboot the phone until MMS works. A good way to test if MMS Send/Receive works is to try to send an MMS message to somebody.

I use Textra to send MMS. I have my Droid 4 flashed over to Cricket Wireless tho....

Jishkah - After more use of the installed ROM I did indeed run into the problem again as you said I would with reboots... I have tried a few more things and believe I have over come the issue.
I booted into my Stock ROM and got the actual APN settings form the Stock ROM. I then booted into my SlimKat ROM and set up a APN using the settings from the stock ROM and set it as default. That has seemed to work through multiple reboots unless I have just been lucky.

Well, then, I certainly wish you luck. I've just never had any success with it, personally. Maybe you'll have more luck. For me, the MMS issue is something that, at times, rarely pops up, even after multiple reboots... at other times, it happens every time and takes me about a half hour to finally get a reboot that has MMS working. :x

Hi, my problem is only for downloading mms.
when I open MMS in app it show me error "item file_name.jpeg can't be delivered"

You can use the AutoInput plugin to "press" the connect and disconnect buttons.

Storm Network Acceleration Disables Dual WiFi - Asking to Wait for Beta

Do you know how to keep it permanently enabled?

In CN Rom, download setedit and set same picture, change 0 to 1. Reboot.

Does this only work for CN rom or is it available on WW rom?

I've successfully got Call Screen working on Pixel 4 outside the US, I'm in Taiwan by the way.
I modified these things below to "true"
G__call_screen_audio_listener_enabled
G__speakeasy_show_privacy_tour
G__speakeasy_postcall_survey_enabled
G__speak_easy_bypass_locale_check
G__speak_easy_enable_listen_in_button
G__enable_speak_easy_is_spam_survey
G__enable_speakeasy_details
G__speak_easy_enabled
Change those parameters to "true" then you can use call screen outside the US.
But I'm still wondering if I should set "G__enable_call_screen_saving_audio" to "true"

Where is that file?

/data/data/com.google.android.dialer/shared_prefs/dialer_phenotype_flags.xml

Anyone know if it would be possible to make an edxposed or magisk module to make this change? Never worked with xposed that much, and not sure if it's possible to have magisk write to /data instead of /system, but figured I'd ask...
Update: tried enabling by editing the file directly, then clearing force closing and clearing data for the dialer app - still no call screening available. In the UK, device language UK English, dialer beta updates enabled.

This has been discussed to death on Reddit and xda...

Sure it's been discussed a lot, but is there actually a method that works reliably? Because every post I've seen points to the same flags in the same preferences file, and no one seems to have confirmed it working on a Pixel 4 on the stock rom yet.

Weird... I factory reset my phone yesterday and I found it working on older version of Phone app 34.0.261218393 but not working on the latest version 41.0.277149592.
Update:
40.0.274600228 works.
40.0.275948326 works.
I almost confirm that version above 41 won't work.

Can confirm that after uninstalling updates, grabbing version 40.0.274600228 from apkmirror, editing the prefs file, and force closing the app, I'm able to use call screening in the UK! The only thing that doesn't work is trying to select the alternate voice option - I just get an error message on that and it doesn't play so I don't even know what it would sound like.

You can see this. I made a screen recording of these two voices demo.
Guess Google fix this "trick" after version 41

Is it possible to install a modded apk? without root?

how did you get the xml to open on your phone? any file explorer i use doesn't open the file. i have root access.

Just pull the file to PC and open it with any text editor.

sorry for the late update. got it to work with FX file explorer. uninstall all updates on the phone app and disable auto update( if it updates it stops working and even if you edit after that it won't work. works for me now in India.

Did anyone get success in enabling call screening , I tried method here on 43 version and it didn't worked ?

Could you please post method here, I am at dialler version 43, how do I go back to a version to enable call screening.

I'm pretty sure since Google moved the Call Screening stuff from the phone app to the google assistant app, you have no chance of making it available anymore.

New version doesn't work for call screening outside US. Download this version from Google.
And later use method 2 from this post to edit the files using explorer.
Once u see the call screening option in the diaper settings, it will use wifi and download around 70mb file for the voice options.
