I'm really not sure if this question is okay, so for the moderators, kindly make the right action if this is incorrect. anyways, here is my query.
my friend has "Cherry Mobile Apollo" (Here in the Philippines) which runs on android 4.2.1, and his gallery app was somewhat amazed me, why?

Hi,
For a while now I have been interested in the possibility of OCing my i9000, but kept on finding sources that would suggest that it is not possible on the stock kernel and I must flash to one that allows for OC. Yesterday, I have come across a post that suggested Tegrak from the market. I saw that there was a kernel as well a couple of OCing apks (free and paid versions). What I found interesting was that it allowed for overclocking on the stock kernel as long as the phone is rooted. I then tried the app and it seems to have worked and I was able to get it up to 1.2GHz stable...but I found it wasn't worth it as I couldn't notice a difference in ANY app other than benchmarks...
Anyways, my question about this app (Tegrak Overclock, which can be found on the market as well as in the i9100 forum) is why it requires certain access (I have bolded the ones which, imo, are questionable):
"Your location
coarse (network-based) location, fine (gps) location
Network communication
full Internet access
Network communication
view network state
Hardware controls
control vibrator
Your accounts
discover known accounts"
If anyone has any insight as to why the above bolded sections are required, please let me know as I am quite curious and can't seem to find the source or reason for it (seems source isn't available, as per i9100 thread).
Thanks in advance.
edit: original i9100 dev thread-> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1101355
anyone happen to know?
I wondered about this also but never dared to ask tegrak. As I ran his kernel at the time it seemed quite futile to worry about the rights of a userspace application.
But still it is curious and with the big hoopla over darky's escapades I more and more wish to have access to an independent source that evaluates code and network traffic and gives his or hers stamp of approval.
Since way back when the first hickup in the release train occured and people lost their unique phone ids I am way more careful. I find ramad's posts quite helpful sometimes.
But hey why not ask this question in tegraks kernel thread?

Hello everyone! I am the developer of Prepay Widget, a simple but powerful app that allows you to monitor your cell account balance through USSD requests.
You can find more info about USSD on Wikipedia, but basically these are short, SMS-like messages used by most GSM and some CDMA providers to deliver information
or control account services. The actual information comes to you in the form of popup toasts, which thids app hides and parses into widgets.
You can find the apps landing page on XDA at the following thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12348102
However, i want to stress that its important that we get some device-specific feedback, so please post in this thread if you have issues,
this helps me keep track of bugs and requests better.
You can use the Lite version of the app - it has all the functionality of the full version apart from automatic updates (not really that important imo).
As I haven't got one of these phones in my pocket, I need some testers to track down problems. Please, use this thread to comment or
suggest features. It is my belief that addressing issues is best done individually by phone, so if something doesn't work, let me know and I will fix it ASAP.
Market link:
https://market.android.com/details?id=fahrbot.apps.ussd.widget.lite
Debugging:
Please use the "Write to developer" item in the Settings menu to send logs. Enable debugging, reproduce your error and then send the logs.
Make sure you include a description - the more detailed the description the better.
Screens:
Have things been fixed in 1.1.5?
1.1.7
- Balance sheet shortcuts reworked
1.1.6
- Fixed dual SIM issues again
try it at once,thanks guy.
Wow, somebody interested in prepay widget! How incredible (no pun inteneded)...
Latest builds are very stable for me!
Glad to know. Dont be afraid to write with issues or suggestions, they are always welcome!
Any issues?
I'd like to test your app. Does it have any carrier restrictions? My mobile network operator is TIM, I live in Italy. Thank you for letting me know.
Sent from my Incredible S using xda premium
The only restriction is that your operator must use ussd codes.
Anything to report about yesterday's update? Is it working OK?

Dear Developer, could you add to your app an option to show last change bill? That is the difference before and after the last change. It would be great. Sorry for my bad English.
There is already a statistics panel...

I meant that information show up right on the widget.
I don't think that will happen, my aim has always been minimalism. I'll think about it.

Hi folks,
apparently I'm too much of a noob to be posting in dev threads directly.
Also, I come from the Nexus line, so please don't smash me down for the stupid questions that follow.. :angel:
I see that Assist, the Camera, Touchless Controls and Active Display are apps and thus registered in the play store. However, to my understanding, they require drivers to run with respect to the "X8".
Does this stuff work on ROMs like Carbon or PA? Can you shake your phone to open the camera, do notifications trigger Active Notifications, does "OK Google Now" trigger?
(Thing is, I'm anxious as this time I have something to lose compared to the Nexus 4 I had before and which I flashed regularily )
Any answer is much appreciated!

IF the ROM is "stock-based", these features are most likely active. If you flash a non-stock-based ROM such as CM11, you lose all those features.
If you are curious, and the OP doesn't say, just ask in the appropriate ROM-specific thread. Those individuals will have the definitive answers for you.
Thanks a lot! So basically I'll have to check whether the OP shows something along the lines..
Next time you have a question, be sure to use the search feature! I think I answered the same question a few days ago.

Unless you need the Theme Chooser from Rom's I would HIGHLY suggest you install Xposed and then the Gravity Box module. Gravity Box has almost all the mods included in any rom and even better you get to choose which mods you want to use and don't have to worry about the "next nightly"/wiping/flashing/setting up your phone each time.
PS Make a clean Nandroid of your stock software before you flash anything.

This may be an inappropriate place to start this thread but I assumed it to apply to development nonetheless so I understand if it must be relocated.
That being said, about the ONE feature the Nexus 6 lacks that made me envy the latest LG, Samsung, or Apple phone is the ability to record in slow motion at a minimum of 120 FPS at 720p. I've looked into this briefly and it appears that the sensor hardware of the Nexus 6 could easily achieve 120 FPS recording if there were software to allow it. I've also read (but NOT verified) that Android 5.0 includes new camera API's specifically for slow motion recording but it isn't enabled in stock Lollipop on the Nexus 6.
I'm new completely to developing for Android and I'm a novice developer in general at that, however, I really want to enable this awesome feature on our otherwise awesome and superior phones both for myself and for the community that's done so much for me over the years.
Before I venture on understanding and hopefully finding a solution to this, is there any more immediate progress or advice anyone else has made on this particular issue or any explanation of the alleged slow motion camera API's in 5.0?
I'm sure it's coming down the road....
A lot of good things ahead my friend, patience is the key
This alone has me interested in learning how to modify apk's. Lots left to learn, can't seem to do anything with any files i've extracted from the Google Camera APK. They're
all tied up in containers I am unable to make use of without my linux machine.

Hello,
The reason I've moved this thread over to the Q&A section is because as of right now it doesn't contain any real developer-related information. (no offense intended) Please have a look at this thread to see what kind of threads should belong in the developer section.
Good luck developing!

I've been following that recently as well. There seems to be a whole lot already there as a ground work for slow motion recording. It's almost like Motorola intended to originally include it, like with the fingerprint sensor libraries that were removed after they decided not to include biometric hardware... Except, I'm confident now that the sensor in our Nexus 6 can handle 120FPS if instructed to.
Hey guys. I recently bought Galaxy Note 5 SM-N920C with 5.1.1 android version and it's an incredible phone. I have some question about some apps.
before telling you about my problem I must notice that my phone is not rooted yet.
I found some app for hacking WiFi password. the most useful app was AndroDumpper and it works great on my previous phones. but it doesn't work on my Note 5 device. I want to ask you:
A) if there is or if you know any other app for hacking WiFi that works on Note 5 please tell me.
B) if you know any solution for hacking WiFi password on Note 5 please share your knowledge with me.
C) Should I root my device for using these kind of apps?
Help me... help me please
Sorry about my bad English
thanks
better to get your own wifi..
all app are fake
