Hi, I'm not looking anything Illegal. I hope someone can point me in the right direction. This would just collect time stamps already shown.
I want a time tracking app for FB.
It can be run off a browser. It would goto a selected friends message and according to the time stamp document their FB time.
Example. Already on FB in the message top it states Active Now, Active 7 minutes ago.... It would just check and log according to the preferences.
It would produce a time log. Active from 12:02 am - 3:am Active from 7:01pm-7:05pm.
Is this already out there?

Hi there, I think I understand what you want but not sure it's possible. Facebook only says the last time you were online / active, so it doesn't record the spaces between old posts.
For example, for the following
Bob : Posts a status update a 8:00 am
Bob : Stays online, just reading and looking at other peoples posts
Bob : Posts a status update at 10:00 am
Bob : Goes offline straight after posting the message
Fred : Posts a status update a 8:00 am
Fred : Goes offline straight after posting the message
Fred : Posts a status update a 10:00 am
Fred : Goes offline straight after posting the message
For both users, if you look at their page it will suggest that they were last active at 10:00 am but it won't tell you that Bob was online the whole time since 8:00 am but Fred wasn't. So all you would be able to assume at best is that the person has been online continually ever since their first post was ever made (or that day, but that assumes they weren't on Facebook prior to midnight until past midnight).
Yes you are correct. They could be online.
I only want to know when they are active.
I almost have a macro for PC written to screen shot that area.
OCR it, and save it in note pad with a time stamp.
But I would rather have an app.

Are you wanting this app to work without being visible on screen? Taking a screenshot is the wrong way to go about "screen scraping" the data, you should be getting the raw HTML data and then parsing that to get the information that you want, it would be much more optimal than performing OCR on a screenshot. If you want this app of yours constantly monitoring other users then it would have to work without being visible on screen. I'm new to Android in particular so not sure what class you would need to act as a http client to obtain the data.
But I think you just missed my point, you can't tell how long they have been active. You're making a guess and assuming they haven't gone offline during posts. Just because I posted twice in an hour, doesn't mean I was active on facebook that whole time. All you can tell from the information is,
1. What that have posted and when
2. When they last posted

Another example of downloading a file programatically,
http://wininterview.blogspot.in/2013/04/download-file-in-android-from-remote.html
byte[] buffer would contain the data you want in the downloadFile method, this would be the raw HTML data for the page (what you see when viewing the source for the page in the browser).
Thanks for the links and advice.
I am not a programmer and was only use the tools that knew how to use.
It's running on my pc. But i would prefer an app to do this.
It doesn't have to be hidden. I am using macro mouse to run my work around.
I don't think you are correct about the FB activity. I am following this person and would know if they posted. So apparently they are either messaging or browsing. They are not very popular so I believe it's browsing for the amount of time that they are active.

https://www.facebook.com/help/community/question/?id=486660488085628
"When you view your conversations in mobile messages, you'll see how recently your friends interacted with Facebook."
Active 10 minutes ago would mean, they interacted with Facebook 10 minutes ago. It doesn't say how long they have been interacting with Facebook for, so if you want to build up a map of when someone is interacting with Facebook, that is not possible. You may be better asking over on the Facebook developers forum to clarify this or maybe find an alternative way to achieve what you want.

correct so"Active 10 minutes ago" would mean, they physically interacted with Facebook 10 minutes ago. They were not asleep they actually picked up there phone or mouse and physically interacted with facebook.

So I wonder if they are physically interacting with Facebook only every 10 minuets this will always say 10 minutes ago.
when they pause browsing it show be re-starting the counter correct.
so recording the changes in this status depending on Facebooks refresh limit one could document a creepy map of when someone is physically interacting with Facebook.

Purpose
With all the rage around getting a Google+ invite, there is a small problem: Even with an invite, you might not be able to get into Google+ for several days. nibras_reeza and I have been working on a script that, once you've received an invite, will keep checking the signup page to see if you can sign up. YOU MUST HAVE AN INVITE FOR THIS SCRIPT TO BE USEFUL!
Features
* Automatically checks Google for when registration is open
* Displays a running total of refreshes
* Works in Chrome, Firefox, and IE (w/ Trixie)
Special Thanks
Nibras Reeza - motivated and helped me write this; running the notification form and general debugging
"_mousey" - fixed a caching issue, IE support, and debugging
"thrasher9" - "how many times have I pinged Google?"
Version
0.000005 - Fixing stupid merge issues (thanks Nibras and _mousey!) and merged _mousey's IE support (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15456658&postcount=201)
0.000004 - Merged changes from Nibras, _mousey, and thrasher9 into the main script
0.000001 - Initial
Instructions
READ THIS!
1. Install this script. For Chrome, simply download the file, drag it to Chrome, and authorize the install
2. Go to your Google+ invite, click on the "Join Google+" link
3. The script should take over--your browser will jump to the "Field Test" page. You can monitor this progress by pressing Ctrl-Shift-J to view the javascript console.
4. When registration "opens", the script will stop refreshing. You should see a form on the page asking for some info to sign up. DO THIS AS QUICK AS POSSIBLE!
5. Come back here and post about your success!
Note 1: Just because you see the sign-up form doesn't mean you'll get in. Therefore, it is pointless to leave this running overnight; even though you may see a sign-up form in the morning, chances are it won't work.
Note 2: If Google is not displaying in English, then you'll need to edit line 45. More info here (Thanks _mousey!) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15430390&postcount=161.
Note 3: If you want to run this in IE, use Trixie (Thanks _mousey!) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15425549&postcount=152
Implementation
(the boring stuff)
Original post: Link
Attached is a Greasemonkey script for Google Chrome (probably doesn't work for Firefox...). Install it in your browser, click the "view or comment" link in the invite you received. The script will find the "Join Google+" link, save the URL, then navigate to the page. If the page contains a DIV with "Field Trial", it will wait 5 seconds, then refresh. This should happen until either a) Invites work again, b) Google opens G+ to the world, or c) Google gets pissed at you and blocks your address.

I successfully used this script to sign up for Google+, and so have many other people.
Not necessary anymore. Use the version by Adam above. He integrated mine into his.
TIP for Android users:
(Some said this works but I can't make any guarantee. Worth a try.)
Apply for an invite in my form using a GMail account. Once you receive my invite, download Google+ from the Market(use Market Enabler or Root Toolbox and emulate a US carrier if you are outside US. You need ROOT.)
Now, sign into your GMail account on your phone. (Settings->Accounts and Sync->New Account->Google) Skip this if you submitted the account you already use on phone.
Open up Google+ on Android and sign in.
ONLY ONE PERSON HAS TO RUN THE SCRIPT. ANYONE CAN CHECK STATUS PUBLICLY.
SCRIPT UPDATED. USE THE NEW VERSION.
Here's a fork I made. This version logs available times publicly on a Google Docs Spreadsheet. I want someone who has a spare unused invite and has not registered to run it continuously.
And, I owe a lot for Adam to working so hard to write the script. He did all the hard work of digging into the code. xD I just made a fork. lol
Here's the public URL(TIME IS IN +0530GMT/+1030EST):
https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...pUTOhdHdwLUZOTmlOWHNvbzR0M19iSTNzdmc&hl=en_GB
Just subscribe by notifications for changes made to the doc and you will be notified by email when registrations are open.

Exactly.
Think of it as a club: You're standing in line (G+ invite) waiting to get in. The bouncer finally decides to let a few people in (registration is open). You get lucky and he lets you in (success).
Damn! Wish I had my invite right now!
Are you still sending invites to the ones that registered to your spreadsheet?
Great work anyway!
Just another quick question which time zone is used for the times?

I did send an bulk invite a few minutes back. It's taking hours to go through.
The time on what? My spreadsheet which says when registrations are open? It's SLST(+0530GMT). I'll try to change it to EST.
Hello Nibras,
I installed the script and removed all cache and then clicked on the 'view or comment on Nibras's post'. It automatically navigated to the registration page but then never refreshed! or is it refreshing and I can't tell?
What do you mean by 'DIV with "Field Trial"'? How can I tell if the page contains it? sorry if this was a dumb question, but I don't understand it.
It's adam's script. Not mine. Don't bother about the div stuff. It just explains how the script works.
Just install the script on Chrome or Greasemonkey or Tampermonkey.
Click view or comment on nibras's post. Then the script will reload the signup page till Google allows signups. (Make sure you are signed into your Google account before you try all these.)
idk how to use this script? all it does is it blocks me from visiting the google plus website because it is killing my chrome with a lot of spamming a page which says: "available!" which will open many times until my chrome crashes
EDIT: damn my fault, i need to get the invite mail first! im sorry !

Open the Chrome JavaScript console, you should see a message every time it refreshes.

As long as it keeps refreshing your page, it is working. I would suggest moving the window off to the side and keep an eye on it. The right hand side of the page that tells you there is no room will switch to a log-in form whenever Google feels like it. The script itself doesn't make Google give you the invite any faster, it just makes you aware that you can sign-up within 5 seconds of it being available.
Mucho thanks, hopes I gets lucky now.

This is the console open for around 5 minutes with no msgs. I know its not refreshing, but I don't know why. I downloaded you zip file and extracted the JS file, then opened a blank chrome page and dragged the file into the blank page, it asked me if i want to install it and i clicked continue. When I go to extensions I can see G+ invited there. When I open the 'comment or view' link, it takes me to the post with the red button saying 'Join G+' and then automatically redirects me to the page attached, but it doesnt refresh.
Am I doing something wrong?
EDIT: it worked now after pressing Ctrl+F5 several time. I think it was a problem of cache, although I have deleted all cache and cookies.
Anyway thank you Adam and Nibras. Will let it run overnight and see what happens

I'll let it run over night then and maybe there'll be a present for me in the morning!
Thanks again for the script, I figured someone would sort something automated in the end and am happy to have found it.
I have another concern, could it be that chances for US residents are better than non US? do you advise me to use a proxy, or it doesn't matter?
I don't have any facts to back this up, more of just some thoughts into how I might implement the invitation system:
Let's say you start the script before going to bed around midnight. The script runs for 2 hours, Google allows some people into the system, your browser stops refreshing because you have a sign-up form. Success, right? I don't think so. My guess is that Google is allowing a set number of people to sign up at defined intervals. Just because you see the form doesn't mean that you will be able to create an account, otherwise, we could just sniff the form post and duplicate it for every member that wants an account[1]. So, you wake up in the morning, seeing a sign-up form, frantically fill it out, only to discover that you were ~8 hours too slow and too many other people beat you to it.
My recommendation is that you only run the script when you are within arms-reach of your computer, as I'm not sure how much time you have between seeing the form and having it rejected.
Thinking more about what Nibras and I have discussed, since this is a beta, Google would want to control the amount of people in the system. Also, they would need to have many servers to handle all the traffic. It would be dumb to put all those servers in one location (US or UK), as the latency would kill the experience for anyone outside of that country. So, if Google has a bunch of servers spread across the globe, then they would probably want to try to encourage people around the world to sign up, instead of just having 99% of their testers from one country. This might explain why we are seeing invites being sent at odd times, and why people are being allowed to sign up at odd times.
Alternatively, they may be releasing ~1000 invites at a time, first come, first serve. And there's some dude staring at a bank of monitors, watching all the threads across the net (just like this one), giggling as we try to figure out what they're doing. And this dude, whenever he gets bored, he presses a button and lets a few more people into the system.
[1] If anyone is nerdy enough to sniff the traffic, I would be curious what it is submitting, just in case I'm wrong. In theory, we could create accounts for everyone, at least until Google patches the issue.
EDIT: Odds for US or non-US people? I don't really think it matters.

Maps gets a location instantly
GMaps also
Opening Internet explorer and opening Google.com and taping on use precise location comes on instantly
Opening UC and navigating to the Google.com page and tap on location, nothing. Waited 30mins and still nothing
One observation, the very first time I opened Google in IT it asked me if I should allow google.com access to my location, UC did not prompt so perhaps there is a system block somewhere?
Also you need a seperate exit option
I want to have a dialer where I can search for businesses directly through the dialer. So you know how in 4.4 I can type "John" and call the guy in my contact list name John, I want to be able to type "McDonalds" or "Best Buy" in that same search field, and based on my location it will pop up with "McDonalds, 123 Fake Street" along with a thumbnail picture of it(or its map location) and its hours for that particular day. And if I click on the thumbnail I can see more info, open its location in GMaps, etc

Can't you just say "show me the nearest mcdonalds" in google now?
Works on my nexus 5 anyway to do the stuff you said.
Think your request is a bit too much for a display of that area. When searching for a number you generally just want the quick info, clicking on it to get more info is fine but all that wouldn't fit in a small space especially if you gotta scroll over 10x just to get 1 phone number.
The current stuff though does allow you to type McDonalds and have it pull in local info from the closest one. It will show street address/town as well but that's all.
Ok I want the following
Blocking Mode baked into the update just like the one on the Samsung Galaxy Line.
Slide to call or text just like on the Samsung Galaxy Line.
One Button touch to clear all active apps not having to swipe them away one at a time.
I want a polish and fully tested OS.
Always listening "OK Google," like the Moto X has. (Optional setting if necessary for those who don't want to take the battery hit.)
Face Detection setting that prevents going to standby when you're looking at the screen (like Samsung has, not motion-based like "Gravity Screen" app does, although that's better than nothing.)
Customizable Quick Panel.
Theme control (not everyone likes bright-as-hell white backgrounds on everything!)
Combined music/video player, more like iTunes.
Location-based screen locking. (Don't ask for PIN/Password if I'm at home or work, but otherwise do.)
Not necessarily in that order, and I'm sure I could think of others if I tried hard enough. Also, that one-touch "clear all" active apps suggestion is good.
Hmmmmm, having a slide to text option in the contacts would be nice but also more sharing features. I am a very social networked person and I love to share anything and everything having more sharing options is certainly a plus.

The dialer already does exactly that. I do it all the time and it works well.
I want them to get that fricken search bar off of the home page and to never ever again presume that it's ok to use up an entire row of every screen with the exact same widget. Whoever thought it up should be fired. Whoever approved it should be fired. Whoever attended a meeting where it was suggested as a possible feature that did not get up and *****slap the person who mentioned it should be fired.
The screen indicators should be clickable so as to allow you to one touch to any screen as seen on touchwiz.

Lol I've been on android from day one, I had a launcher installed mucho quick. Doesn't change the fact that the stock launcher while having some promise is heavily flawed to no good end. I understand that some may like the search bar there. Some may like it on every page. Who knows, maybe someone wants to make 5 pages and fill them all with the same search bar. Great. More power to them. Let them create search bars till the cows come home. Some of us don't want a search bar there. All of us could be happy before which is the beauty of android. I could put my search bar where I want it, everyone else could put it where they want it. Now no one gets a choice, we have entered the era of the idroid. What did we gain by giving up choice? Nothing. Not one thing.
A bad precedent in my mind. Good thing I'm not running Google, heads would have rolled long before this ever saw the light of day.
googles needs to get it's **** together in regards to streamlining and unifying some of their services. while not really android specific, there are many related things that effect android users daily.
hangouts is supposed to be your unified messaging locale, however no google voice integration
google keep seems like a good product, however the apparent lack of integration with google now and android voice commands doesn't make much sense. if i say "okay google..." then set a reminder, why doesn't this show up in keep? if i set a reminder in keep, it should show up in google now and vice versa. i don't wanna hunt around all over the damn phone trying to figure out where all my assorted reminders are located.
there are two photo apps currently -- gallery and photos
i feel like android is really coming into it's own quite well as a mobile os, and it's very clean cut at this point. however google really needs to clean up their services because some things still feel half baked.

I missed this at first myself. If you type in the previously mentioned McDonald's you will get a list of them showing their address so you can parse out the appropriate contact.

Update 17 June 2016
For anybody who ever lost their phones.
There's few sufficient phone tracking application for Android that still can work after Factory Reset. If you lose your phone and the picker doesn't want to return it back to you, all he need to do is reset your phone and Android Device Manager will down right after. You may lose your phone forever.
NSA Tracker is an invisible Android Phone Tracking Application that can help you you:
1. Record all your phone calls into audio file
2. listen to your SMS incoming and outgoing
3. Hourly record your device location.
4. All information will be attached and sent to your own email.
My app doesn't have any icon on device screen, opened by USSD code with password protected, so if anyone illegally possess your device, he will certainly not aware that the NSA Tracker was installed and is running. This app doesn't use intermediate server, so you can be free from worrying about privacy. NSA Tracker support Gmail, Yahoo mail, Hotmail and Outlook Mail.
NSA Tracker will need your email address and email password to send email to you. With the above mentioned information that she's listening, there will be a lot of email that will be sent to you everyday. So it's better that you give her a new email account.
I- How to install
Download NSA Tracker from this link below:
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxgc8Lcuu3PWNHFmWlRiemprb2c
II- How to open
For the first-time start up, NSA Tracker will be opened by NSA Helper (app-to-app opening). But from the second time afterwards, you have to open it using USSD code:
*2718*password# -->call (Please be reminded that 2.718 is mathematical constant e)
After the first time, you can remove NSA Helper. don't forget the USSD code above to open NSA Tracker.
III- On Root Device
If your device is rooted with superSU installed, NSA Tracker can install itself (named NSA Service) into /system/app/ folder. If NSA Service is successfully installed, it will be very difficult to uninstall it, even factory reset will not be able to remove it. After Factory Reset, NSA Service still can run immediately without the need of re-configuration and continue send email to you.
V- Why I develop it
As mentioned above, I don't want any of us lose our devices. So this app is expected to be installed on your own device. In some countries or states, phone call recording may be illegal without the permission of one and/or two callers. So you have to make sure by yourself that, call recording is legal in your country. You can turn it off.
VI-Disclaimer
By installing NSA Tracker, you acknowledge that the usage or redistribution of NSA Tracker, herein after referred to as This App, conforms to all applicable laws in your country. This App will be installed only on your own devices. Any behavior that trying to redistributing This App or to install This App on other people's devices, includes but not limited to smart phones, tablets, smart watch... without their prior permission is illicit. You have to bear full liability for that kind of behavior. The developers of This App assume no liability for any kind of law violation regarding to your usage or redistribution of This App.

Hope you enjoy my app and don't do evil things with it.
New update on Version
1. NSA Tracker work more persistent.
2. Update Report form.
3. Fix bug lost email
4. Minor interface update.
New update for XDA member: no limitation on free version for SMS listening and GPS Location report. Link update.
Well, a member inbox me ask about whether it can send phone activities after get Internet Connection. The answer is yes. It will store everything in its own database. When the phone resume internet connection, It will start re-sending email to you. There is only one case that cause my app fails, that is when you make a phone call longer than two hours and the recording file size is larger than 25 Mb. Google Email will not accept that size and NSA Tracker will delete the file without sending it to you.
The reason why I don't use server is that, your very sensitive data if upload onto a server, will face security threat. Without server, i don't have to maintain anythings and you don't have to pay any extra money. Pay one- use forever.

Hello,
If your phone is not root, you could not install NSA Service to system/app folder. So factory reset will remove every thing, you can not track it after reset. On unroot device, you still can install Smart Call Recorder and then NSA Tracker and NSA Tracker is still invisible.
thanks for the answer.
i think about it for rooting my device.

Your're welcome.
New release will be public today or tomorrow. New function to be added:
Remote configuration/ Remote Configuration Clearance (evident clearance)/ Remotely Turning On Tracking: by 144-character encrypted SMS message.
New function has been added on latest release on NSA Tracker 1.1.2. Now you can:
1. Remotely configure NSA Tracker through SMS
2. Remotely clear all configuration (evidence clearance if you think your phone will not be back anymore)
3. Remotely turn on tracking.
This function was added as per request of an xda member. But frankly speaking, I think only the No. 2 is useful.

Hello tiancris,
Are you in Manila?
I miss Makati so much.
Some small modification had been made. App name change to Phone Tracker and Phone Service.
Phone service now register for phone call recording which is faster than any call recording application.
With best regards,

Small modification had been made in 1.1.4 version. Ram consumption less than 4Mb, more stable.
Update installation manual link.
@Cuong Phan nice idea but a question.
1. i see the app is recording all this information throughout the day and sending you emails with the info, throughout the day. Is the info stored on the phone indefinitely or deleted after the email is sent?
2. due to privacy concerns, i keep GPS and location providers off and use other programs to limit connectivity. how is the app gathering the devices location?
Again, thanks for the work on this. seems very interesting, especially for those of us who have had a phone stolen.
Dear Sherrif,
The app has its own database that store pending emails. When internet connection is off it will stay dormant and waiting. When email is sent to you, all data for that email will be deleted from internal storage.
2. My app will not ask user to turn on GPS (that behavior can make my app visible to user) so when location is off, it could not get location report. But Google Maps usually & publicly request location to be turned on, and once it get location turned on, it never turn location back off state ( unless user turn it off themselves). That's the logic of my app, and it's usually successful in gathering device location.
@Cuong Phan thanks for the info. Will try and report back... i like the idea of this

[/COLOR]I have a problem with the e mail enter
Dear Bruce,
It's quite ridiculous that I was also unable to enter into my blogspot link for a while, but now it's okay without any action (may be Google down??? quire ridiculous ha?). However i just update the link, directly to the article. You may try one more time.
I know on some devices, updating email may occur some errors, so I have shown instruction step-by-step in red color. You'd better try from:
1. Turn off NSA Tracker completely (completely mean when you open it, it's reopen, not resume from pause. You can restart your phone and reopen NSA Tracker to complete it).
2. Just try to re-update email again.
3. Even testing email is not successful, email and password had been updated. You may try to make a phone call to anybody for a few seconds to test whether NSA Tracker can send to you call recording email or not.
If problem still persist, email me again.
4. You're using a Moto G3, so it's possibly similar to my HTC One E8. It has an S-ON mechanism, that block all modification of system folder. So even your phone is rooted, it's still impossible for SuperSU to change system file unless your phone is S-OFF. That why the NSA said that the process may not be successful. You may try how to S-OFF your device here, using Sunshine tool. It costs 25 USD (but it worths because after S-OFF, your device is free to install other ROMs)

since the purchase of my note 8 I have a twitter notification problem that stop after 1 hour of sleep, I disable bettery optimize but without success,please help me.:crying:
It's not necessarily the time, but the messages. Twitter will only keep 49 notifications and then it stops notifying. My wife is a twitter user and this has been a huge complaint of hers. After doing research, this is what I found. It's been a couple of months now, so I can't remember where I found it. There wasn't a whole lot of information out there and it took me a while to find it.
I'm pretty sure that it's a Nougat issue and it might be for all apps that give notifications. It's just that on twitter, she gets more notifications.
