Curious if anyone here uses this app. And if you do, I'd suggest you strongly reconsider.
The newest update is asking for camera permissions to take pictures or video. There are also reports in the reviews of this app asking for superuser permissions when placing a call!
I personally think it's a load of crap for an app like that to have those type of permissions! I mean, the whole permissions of that app overall are over the top to me.

Installed it yesterday, I'm not generally worried about permissions, but when it asked for root rights after a reboot, I denied it and uninstalled.

Yeah, seems you'd be flagged as a rooted device with either a yes or no answer to the su request. No good in my book!

I hear solution is to hold power, toggle airplane mode then allow or deny (don't think it matters at this point) then uninstall and never install ever again :victory:
so weird it asked me for root tonight too

I have an updated yet, but the description in the Play Store does not address root access. It addresses the new permissions but not root very very sneaky

Not really sneaky... look in settings/about phone/status... **root status**. They know and don't care. They're more worried about the other 99% of non rooted folks forking over countless millions of dead presidents...

Nothing. I panicked, very slowly, scientist turned airplane mode on, realized damage was done, turned it back off, force stopped it, uninstalled the updates, let it update, and made for sure I blocked it when it asked for root again. Haha so pointless looking back now.. I'm now showing rooted 4.4 to vzw now on a leaked ota. My warranty is probably void lol

Here is the .apk for the newest Android Market. It is said to be coming within the next few weeks but AndroidCentral leaked it from someone who leaked it haha. Download at your own risk as I am not responsible for any issues that arise!
ROOT USERS BEWARE: If you rent a movie it will tell you that you can't watch the movie due to being rooted AFTER you have paid to rent the movie. So do NOT rent movies if you are rooted!

When you can navigate CWM without looking.

when you call someone just to ask if there is an echo.
your most used apps are speedtest, gps status, and benchmarks so you can test the basics of a new rom.
you put up with things like mute then unmute on every call cause the rom is too good to let that little bug keep you off it.
nightlies get flashed nightly.
you've drunkenly soft bricked your phone trying to show someone how easy it is to flash something by flashing an imcompatible kernel/rom that was still on your sd.
you've successfully odin'd/heimdall'd back to stock, still drunk after soft bricking your phone trying to show how easy it is... (and that, kids, is the story of my first time using odin)

I know this pop up comes because when I lock my data disconnects and when I unlock they shows my data charges.
But it can be prevented if I stay online whether screen is locked or unlocked or by blocking that pop ups.
I have installed many messaging softwares like WhatsApp,viber, hike, gtalk, yahoo messenger.....
So can anyone help me to solve this problem??

Everyone is saying that it works. Have you tried rebooting after applying your settings?
Also, if restart didn't make it work you can just ask the people (and the dev) on that thread for further help. There's actually a couple other threads like yours even in XDA.

Edit again: mms working perfect over 3g at least. One thing though, I just noticed... I have no camera? Is this supposed to occur? Was a clean flash and everything.
Is the phone app able to search out side of the contact list like the nexus 5...? (You type pizza and it gives you the number to the closes pizza store)
