I was wondering if there was an app that could update all your apps and install the updates automatically without having to go through them one by one. That gets really annoying.

The best I know of so far is aTrackDog. And it's really not so great. You have to manually check for updates and install them each individually.
I would love to hear anybody else's suggestions. This really does get annoying.

i read something that when the dev test a new app but is not ready to be released. it still shows up as an update. just look at it as it will soon come out. at least you know the dev is updating apps
what atrackdog does is take info from everyone who uses atrackdog. so if you see an update that isnt out yet, that means that the dev(s) of the program use atrackdog and its picking up the unreleased version they're working on. atrackdog is one of the best apps for ANY android phone.

Ok..the thing is that this thread is asking for an app that will automatically update all the apps so that you don't have to do it manually.
So I guess I am asking for an automatic app updater and installer...if that makes sense.

For the purpose of this thread, it doesn't meet what he's requesting. I'm not saying as an app it isn't good. I used to use it all the time. For what it does, it does it great. But for what he wants, it doesn't.
Ok, let me rephrase my previous statement.
The app you're looking for does not exist.
Ok then ^^
Would it be possible to make an app like that?
Bump. Please someone tell me if it's doable!
So i discovered the october ota update actually locked the Safesearch filtering option in the youtube app (it's all grayed out). Are there any ways to fix this besides just searching the vids thru the m.youtube site? It annoys me, cuz i can't find my favorite music video cuz it has 'Dickhead ' in the title!

Might try and uninstall it and get one from another build. Shocked others havent noticed. I dont use it much myself so never noticed. Just checked the one on froyo and its not locked.
Yep, AT&T blocked this. See below for the app from a Fascinate dump. I removed the AT&T one, pushed this using ADB. It's unblocked.
Enjoy!
Thanks for that definitely worked to downgrade the youtube app, but did i lose the HQ button with the old version?

Never noticed this but yes. I never use the app anyway. You could always flash Froyo and use a browser with Flash.

Also I've seen this being an issue on HTC Evo on Sprint, and also one of Motorola's Droids on Verizon so is/was every carrier doing this? It's pretty pathetic. I mean I get the idea of SafeSearch for kids but to have that turned on for everyone? Oh no I might see a video with a swear word! I'm not a child, and the "Being a Dickhead's cool" song is hardly offensive anyway. PS funny song by the way.
1.6.20(E) seems to be having this in every version. I guess the E stands for "emasculated". None of the other Youtube versions seem have the (E).

When I ask Corporate America to become my parent or protect me from evil, you'll be sure to see it in the headlines. Until then, I have two great parents, who have taught me right from wrong and how to act in public and etc.. I don't need some third party to protect me from the evils of the internet.
Give me my uncensored internet! And thanks for the fix Cappysw10!
So I went back to 1.6.20(emasculated) edition and will use the work around to search youtube's mobile site instead of through the app. But what I'm planning to do is try to talk to Samsung about this because I want to see the response. The HTC people have been blaming Sprint about this. But I heard it was fixed in Froyo... so if we can only get that..
What I think actually happened is the guys that wrote the app somehow disabled the adjustment. It could actually be a bug, instead of willful censorship like we are assuming. I've had programs in windows that have grayed menu settings based on some faulty registry settings.
There appears to be an update for the YouTube app in the market that fixes this now. It does allow you to alter the SafeSearch parameters. Check it out.
um can you be more specific about the update? like the full name so i can find it

Currently no, I sent an email to wifirouter which made the great app for our HD2's and the only reply they gave me was no so good, and that for how they see the OS now, it doesnt allow for it.
Lets hope Windows fixes that. Cause we need that. I really really need that.
This one has been beaten to death in other threads but for what it's worth +1 for tethering feature here as well.

Doesnt do us much good, and I really hope they come out with it soon, even if it is third party like we had on the HD2, i hate dragging my HD2 around to see clients just to have that one feature.
Any news or rumor about hd7 tether we need the update really soon.

not that I have seen, my HD7 is a paper weight right now, since that is all it is good for, i got fed up with all the missing things went back to HD2.
Man, I'm right there with you. Same thing. Microsoft took a step backwards. Disappointment. I have to keep switching SIM cards to my AT&T tilt to tether. Serious BS.
all these answers have really really pushed me back, not buying until MS fixes all or most of the common things, tether, bluetooth atleast
I just got HD7 from ebay and got in love with it and the WP7 system in one hour time. But last and most important thing for me that I checked was usb tethering.
What a disappointment.
I hope M$ will make it soon available or I'll get rid of the phone unfortunately

Eh u just got the phone, give it a few days, ull grow to hate it
But yes, tethering not present is a big let down, along with many missing items, and the mid January BIG update, is nothing more then new fixes for market place and cut/paste to shut us up, which is still not here soooooo....
thats why im glad i kept my HD2
has anyone tried using the DFrouter xap posted in the hd2 development forum? You need a jailbroken device for that though..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=922000
First, is there any updates concerning tethering on the HD7? And second, why is everyone blaming Microsoft when they have already said that its availible but up to the carriers to offer it?
Did anyone else know about this option? How do we disable such a thing? Seems pretty invasive.

I had it done on my M8. They have to send you a link to the app, and you have to install it, they can't just do it without your permission.
The app will also block any access to keyboard (when they used it, I had to type everything and it specifically states that all access to the screen is currently blocked when typing anything), it basically just lets them use the device a bit, and check some settings to make sure everything is proper.
Just uninstall the app after, and done.

Yup. That'd be a massive privacy breach that would open them to quite a few lawsuits if they had it setup that they could access your device and personal data at ANYTIME.

Did she offer to do it to the new device, or to the external SD?
If it was new device, I don't see how they would do that unless they were going to use ATT Locker (which I hate). If to external, then it's just a setting in the phone that'll move everything to the external.
Still, she would have to ask for your permission, which she did. I wouldn't worry about it, they can't get that data anyway.

I called att once when I had my s4. However I had that phone so locked down even they couldn't get a connection established. When they would try to connect they would get a rejection message and my phone would force close the app. They use this to trouble shoot our phones when we call support. They ask you to accept a text link which grants them control of your phone. What you see they see. I do not like this because they can see notifications like text messages in the status bar. You will also be asked to install an apk. I don't like this idea because I have private information on my phone. But someone who is not very literate with phones may need this type of support to fix their phone malfunctions.

Just thought id share this with you guys .Im currently running on my neo its alittle buggie at first but its my daily nowhttp://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-2/development/please-help-kernel-compiling-android-t2992953
Oh hey, so they finally went somewhere with that project! I used to keep track of the many developers who have tried over the years, good to see that someone was finally able to pull it off.
How do you like it so far?
Is it worth the transition and side effects?
The side effects are not that bad you have to force a weather card to keep the open gl driver running so that the faces work

That's not to bad, but what about the no mic thing? Since android wear is big on "Ok Google" has that caused any limitations??
I scanned through the thread and so far it looks amazing!! That's my only concern, I really want to try this, but I have custom roms on my other samsung devices that made the IR blaster useless as well lol and I currently don't own a remote for my room.

does anyone have a link or some direction on the where to get the windows drivers for this. i have flashed stuff and used odin for years and i cant get windows to read this in download mode no matter what. i tried tizen and android sdk, installed samsung phone drivers, installed and uninstalled kies. im at a loss. im am using vm on mac but never had an issue with any samsung products. might be a tizen thing.
So, does this mean I can have full use of my neo without the need for a TW rom? I detest TouchWiz
The answer is yes!
Can this be used on other devices as well? I'm going to be moving from a note 3 to a moto x at upgrade and would like to be able to use the neo 2 with it.
