[Q] How can I check app update history? - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Is there a way to check which apps have recently updated? and when they updated? Like a history of updates with dates

Unchecked automatically update in Google play on each of the app installed . Just do it manually if u want to monitor the update.

Yip, of course ; But posted this for a work colleague who had a heap of updates overnight and was wondering if there's a way to reference a history/log of update dates and sizes etc. It's not a big deal though

If auto update Unchecked. He already able to check change log before the update.

Yip, the question is this: is it possible to view a list or log of updates in descending/ascending order of date, size etc. It's not possible as far as I know, but I'd like to know if there's perhaps that someone knows how to do this..

Don't know if installing two of the same app will allow you to use it as a separate app but...
... you can just decompile the file and change the name of the app, that should do it.

You should change the package name in every file. Just the name won't help.
Also, whatsapp is based on your phone communicating with their servers. So multiple apps wont help.

Use Titanium Backup. It can set up multiple profiles for a single app. Meaning the same app can have like 2 or more data files.
Search titanium backup help page to learn how to set it up.
I use this with my browsers to hide the "sensitive" stuff.

Yes, there is a way by which you can run multiple WhatsApp accounts on your android phone with two numbers. This involves you to install an app called SwitchMe Multiple Accounts from the Google Play. The only necessity is that your phone has to be rooted. Once you have installed this app, open it and create two different user profiles for your two WhatsApp account. Each user profile will have its own setting, apps and data. The first user profile will acts at the administrator account and it will have all the apps and data you are having now. If you already have a WhatsApp account in your phone, then it will be on this profile. The second user profile will contain the new WhatsApp account. You can set it up as follows: Switch to this account—> Set up your phone for this account—> Open Play Store—> Install WhatsApp. This way you can register the new WhatsApp account to your new second number. Hope I Helped

If you're rooted and only need double account for whatsapp, you could try this app called '2lines for Whatsapp'..
Sorry, i'm not allowed to post a link yet, but you'll find it on the play store.
The same developer has apps for Clash of Clans and Facebook too, if you are interested.
Hope that helps.

Go to the play store and update, then check your Google now settings, the Gmail options should be there..at least it was for me.

Is the new Google Now just an app update available from Play Store, or is it an actual device update via OTA? I'm on Ubuntu atm
It's an app update.
I can't get the package delivery card to populate. I have it enabled in Google Now and have even forwarded the shipment email with tracking to my email address but it doesn't show up.
Anyone have any luck?
It showed up for me, it's got links to the email AND to directly track the package. All I did was enable it in settings. I don't know why is not working for you.

How did you remove your Google account?
It's impossible without a factory reset.
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Settings>Accounts>Google Account >Sync menu>Options>Remove Account
It is possible.
Sent from my C6602 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah you are right,i thought it was impossible cause in earlier android versions it was impossible.
About your issue try uninstalling Google play service and playstore than clear data,reboot and let it update itself again.

Rogue app turning Sync On automatically

Hi guys.
I'm getting trouble since I got this S10+
I'm. Coming from S9+ and everything there was smooth as butter.
In S10 too, but there is a strange behavior.
I turn AutoSync off and after a while it's on again.
Checked Bixby routines, tried to catch some logs, but nothing.
Do you guys have any clue what could be turning it on?
Cheers
Try Good Lock's NiceCatch app.
Have you check Samsung Cloud and other accounts too?

Yes it is. Actually it wasn't reinstalling. I've done a factory reset and didn't use Smart Switch. Reinstalled everything through Google.

Have you tried an app like battery+ to check what is always on ?
Yes, I'll install again and check.
This issue is making me a permission check freak and I start to realize many apps have too many permission where they shouldn't. e.g. ES File having the permission to change the sync
Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk
Have you tried AdHell?
It has the app components feature which is basically not only removing the permission but disabling access to the function all together.
Got to be careful with it, but I had some apps that have absolutely no reasons to access my phone state, GPS and storage for example.

Phone Goes Directly To Notification When Opened

How do I stop my phone from opening an app when I get a notification in it. Example; I get a notification that I have a new post in Instagram. When I unlock my phone, it'll go directly to that post. Itll do it also if I get a notification while on the phone in a call. Soon as I take the phone away from my ear, it'll go to that notification.
I have a carrier Verizon Note 9, with 9.0, not rooted.
Anyone?
Are you sure you don't click the notification or screen before unlocking the phone?
This is an android feature i.e. it will land up on the app when you click a notification on lock screen. Obviously you have to go through the lock screen.
If this is not the case, I think you have to debug via logcat.

You both may have put me on the right path.
When I went to start disabling apps, I noticed this option in the Gear options. I turned it off, as it must have been on by default. I'll see what happens now.

Oh, how could I forget this. It's introduced in the new update I guess. Really annoying feature. You're safe to disable it.

Thanks. I've already confirmed that was it too. But I never thought to check the Gear for the problem. It did occur to me though that it happened everytime I got a notification on my watch that the same app would open on my phone.
Again, Thank You.
When I read your problem that was the first thing I thought causing it, cause I recently bought a galaxY watch and set it up
