[Q] SMS Short Code Warning - Motorola Droid Bionic

Hey all!
So I'm trying to use SMS Barrage to send many (MANY) messages to a local radio station to win a contest for concert tickets. You can send in as many entries (texts) as you want, so i'd figured i'd automate the process. HOWEVER, the number i have to send the texts to is a 5-digit short code, and my phone throws this warning up every time a text is trying to send to a short code. Now, granted, this is nice that Google is trying to protect us, but I feel I can take care of myself. Does anyone know a way to disable this warning, as it appears for EVERY singe message that is sent via sms barrage, so not very automated. I'm running the unofficial version of CM10 found here.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Never seen that one before, and I've sent to short codes before as well. Of course I wasn't trying to flood anybody either nor was I using CM10 (not that I think that matters).

well i know that it's not an issue with flooding, i sent a single text to a different short code a while back, and the warning appeared, but i didn't think anything of it.

Yeah I'm having the same issue on FIDO in Canada.
5 hours behind. Let me know if you hear of any fix that isn't to set your clock to +0 (which I did because being able to follow texts is more important to me than syncing woes at the moment).

TV Forecast kinda like tool?

Hey, I've been all over google for the past hours and I simply can't find any good android program like TV Forecast for the iPhone..
If you're not familiar with TV Forecast, here's a sample of how it looks. Very basic but very handy:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If you have anything like this for a TV-freak, please help me out
Try this one http://www.cyrket.com/package/ukfree.jersey.tvguide
this may suffice for a bit, i wrote it myself, it simply parses a text file from tvrage.com
http://pdxvr.com/wap/t.php
you can limit the number of days by adding a ?d=n on the end of the url where 'n' is a number below 7
I use Record it by Austin Reid, if u have sky plus it can sync with ur account and u can set ur box to record when ur out.
Today I started to keep the history of the TVRage feed I use for the web app and made some links to those days - mostly so I can see the season/episodes I may have missed.

I saw there was an app on the market that parsed the same file I used and shows you that. I think my interface looks nicer than the app even though it's just a web page.

[Q] Disable the credit reduction notification

I'm on TATA DoCoMo's Smartlife plan and as a part of their 'Keep it simple silly' campaign, they think it is convenient for the customer to receive a credit notification after every Call/SMS and data usage. It's not. Every time I unlock my phone I am greeted with this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Sometimes, there are more than one and then I have to press the 'Ok' button a couple of times. More annoying part is that when there is an incoming call I cannot accept it until I've 'Ok'-ed all of these notifications.
Is there any way the system can automatically 'Ok' this or maybe completely disable this kind of notification? Is there any solution to this madness?
I've tried talking to the CC, but I guess they didn't get the time to reply to my email. I sent the email on May 8.
TL;DR: Carrier sends annoying credit alert. Need to stop it due to inconvenience, hopefully without having to switch carrier.

[GUIDE/Code] Work/home traffic monitor

Hi guys,
Recently I've created some (my first actually) tasks and profiles in Tasker and I thought it would be nice to share this with you. After all sharing is caring
The goal of this app is to notify me of the current delay on my route between home and work (in the morning from home to work and in the afternoon from work to home). One of the solutions to do this was to make the navigation start automatically but the downside of this is that I am then forced to always grab my phone, since I am lazy I like to keep it in my pocket and just make it play a sound and/or vibrate at a specific pattern.
First a few screendumps to give you an impression of what it looks like:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
The XML files which can be imported in Tasker as well as a short description can be found at GitHub (and since I can't link to outside of XDA before I reached 10 posts you have to concatenate the URL for now, will fix in the future) at github com/nick31415/Tasker_TrafficMonitor
Since this is my first post here as well, please feedback (both on my post and my project)!
Kind regards,
Nick
Anyone else having the issue of the pictures not being displayed? Even though I've uploaded them to XDA-developers.com it appears that they are referred to as img.xda-cdn.com which is not accessable.

Keyboard covers text entry field in WhatsApp when sending media.

So I'm at a loss with this one.
For some reason, since getting my OnePlus 3T, I've had this issue where the text field in WhatsApp when sending media is obscured by the keyboard.
Every other device I've used has moved the text box to above the keyboard, but this one doesn't for some reason.
Does anyone know why this is happening? More importantly, does anyone know how to fix it?
I have tried different keyboards, different orientations, reinstalling keyboards... pretty much everything outside of a complete reset of the phone. I can't see what I'm typing when this happens and it's impossible to correct a mistake because even tapping the mistake puts the caret to the end of the text, and you can either delete it all and start again, or try to edit the mistake blind.

Is very different on my device ?
Sorry for such a late reply but, were you able to solve this? I'm having the exact same problem on my Zenfone 2 and i've tried everything you said to no success, the problem also happens when i try to send a DM through stories on Instagram.
