Logging program

Is there any program available that could sort of be used as a keylogger? Today a friend took my phone and texted someone but deleted the Sent message then deleted the text from the Deleted Items folder. I know it's too late to find out what he sent but I want something for the future. I also want to know if there is anything that would log general activity of the phone like programs being opened, what was looked at, etc etc.
Thanks.

So you basically want to be nosy and read what text your "friend" sent. You're a good friend. How about some privacy geez. If he deleted it obviously he didn't want you to read it. Don't worry it wasn't a virus..lol...this post is sad.

I'm not necessarily being nosy, I just want to know what HE sent from MY phone. But besides from the text, I still want to know if there is any logging program to monitor what my device does.

Well If you are worried about what he sent from YOUR phone. Don't let anyone use your phone.

You don't always get a choice.
If you are an O2 UK customer (it doesn't say on your profile), there's something called bluebook ( http://bluebook.o2.co.uk ) which keeps copies of every SMS and MMS you send and recieve. I use it to keep copies of stuff in case my phone breaks and I wrote a PHP script that page scrapes so I can do SMS & MMS to web... but I guess you can use it to see what other people send from your phone if it is a persistent problem.
Bluebook is free and was free to sign up if you joined during the beta. It might now cost £5 to sign up if it is out of beta.
If you are not with O2 UK, you might find your service provider has something similar.
Hope that helps.

hi im new on nexus one i search in forum no luck or maybe separate post, i came from windows mobile its a new world here i got my n1 yesterday i live in mexico but i have some questions about software, im using stock i didint root it yet
i already use the market to install some but here we go:
1. its any dialer good?, this dialer its not good as phonex in windows mobile its any on market like this?free will be nice
2. what applications YOU MUST have on N1?for example i install msn ut seems there is a lot of this wich its better, or the MUST have apps.
3. its anyway to get google maps navigation working outside of USA? or something?and maps offline?
4. any pim backup software ?to backup contacts and messages?

and last how i can change the SMS tones?and any way to change trackball notification colors?i read one but seems i need a rooted one :C
i will wait one week or something to see if all works well before root =) thanks a lot

Most, if not all of your questions could be answered by some searching. Thus I'll be really short. If you google "must have applications nexus one", you'll get everything you need.
1. Dialer One.
2. Fring.
3. No. Buy GPS navigation software.
4. SMS Backup for messages, and for contacts - did you understand the concept of Android, keeping the contacts in the cloud?
5. SMS Popup for SMS tones.

Your contacts, calendar, picasa photos, and gmail are all automatically synced with Google's servers over the air. You don't need to back any of that up.

ASTRO File Manager looks similar to Resco Explorer. It's free for now, but they may decide to charge for it later.

Well, it was a short version, yes?
Navigation works properly in some countries, not only in US. Not around the globe. AFAIK, it's currently functional w/o hacks only in US and UK.
Brut hack can be installed to make it work, but it's not guaranteed to work properly.

[2.11.508]Get Whatsapp Calling Feature[WORLDWIDE][LOLLIPOP]

Hey Guys, you all must be knowing that Whatsapp is testing call feature as reported by a reddit user.
[UPDATE 1] I am aware of a similar thread but it does not address the problem of no contacts.
I followed the thread and discovered that the thread started was the only one to have that feature working properly. It is believed that whomever he calls, gets the same feature too but the opposite person needs to have Lollipop as well as the latest(2.11.508) apk too from the website of whatsapp. Other user reported that using terminator and root access, one can get the calling tab enabled but the issue is no one can see other contacts and my bet is that none of the contacts would have the latest apk as well as lollipop loaded up. So, I've got an idea through which we can enable the feature and help others get the feature too. Try to follow the given steps.
Whats Needed?
-Rooted Lollipop(Stock or Custom ROM would do)
-Latest apk from here
-Terminal from Playstore
-PM me to get my contact number and add me to your contacts(To test out the feature)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steps to follow(Make sure you follow them in order and correctly):
1) Make a Backup of your current chats if you want your chats to be maintained.
2)Uninstall your current version of Whatsapp (Necessary Step, do not try to update through intsalling the latest apk over current version)
3)Install the latest apk you downloaded.
4)Verify your number, restore your chats if you want and start whatsapp.
5)Close Whatsapp and remove it from recents too.
6)Start Terminal and type the following commands without double quotes:
"su" - At this point, it would ask for root permission. Allow it.
"am start -n com.whatsapp/com.whatsapp.HomeActivity" - This would start Whatsapp with 3 tabs namely Calls, Chats and Contacts.
7)Head on to contacts tab and message me from there. I would also add you to my contacts and see if I could call you or not and if it works, we all would get the feature permanently! :highfive:
[UPDATE 2]It has been confirmed that this method does not work for now but at least keep your contacts list updated with someone having lollipop and following the same procedure so that you may come to know when you are also eligible to test out the feature.
Credit goes to pradnesh07 and Tropiux from Reddit.

Unfortunately all this does is show you the tabs. No contacts will show up as you haven't got the feature enabled still. Someone with it needs to call you I believe

I enabled it but no contacts are showing up to call...how to call anyone ?

You have not read the instructions and stuff need properly. Have you?
You need lollipop update first. Then you need someone in your contacts who has enabled these tabs with terminal.

I'm already running lollipop... Did u have enabled the call feature ?

How to remove SMS limit in Marshmallow?

Hey guys, I've recently switched over to a Nexus 6 from a Note 4, and have run into an issue with sending text messages under Marshmallow. I often send a reminder text to a good-sized group of people, and when I send it I get a warning from Android that Textra is sending a large number of messages. It then asks if I want to allow or deny the messages. I'd like to disable this behavior, but all of the instructions I've found on how to do so are for older versions of Android and don't work under Marshmallow.
So, any ideas of how to disable this behavior? I'm unlocked and rooted, just don't know where to look...Thanks for any help you can offer!

If you look at the popup there is an option to never show this again. Check that. Other then that it cant be gotten around. It is an anti spam/Security measure set in by google.

EDIT - Misread the OP.

It looks like I may have cracked the code on this issue and found a solution for my device.
Here's what has worked for me on my Galaxy S4 running a custom AOSP Rom. I don't know if this works on the nexus 6. Try this!
1.) Download Terminal Emulator or some other Terminal App
2.) Open Terminal app and grant SU either by prompt or by typing "su" as a command
3.) After SU access is acquired in Terminal Emulator/app type:
settings put secure sms_outgoing_check_interval_ms 0
4.) Reboot!
Let me know if this works for you!

It will still be blocked by the carrier as it is a 2 step deal. First the device blocks it and then the carrier also flags large amounts as spam. We had the same issue and had to go to a messaging app to get around the limit.

Some carriers may block it but AT&T does not. I was using a CM ROM that had it unlocked and I've been sending messages to 200 people at a time. This mod is now working for me on ROMs that do not have it unlocked. YMMV

If it is working then their spam blocker is not working as it should. The blocker was added a few years ago when I was working for ATT and we had to explain it to business users about the limit and advised them to switch to a messaging program.

In that case, I am glad they are not using their spam blocker! I've been using unlocked CM ROMs for years which has allowed me to send broadcast messages to my 200+ member sales team. This mod is now allowing me to use a locked AOSP ROM that I've wanted to use for a very long time. After unlocking sms, I can now send as many messages as I want without getting that annoying pop-up warning. WIN!

hey I tried this on boost mobile and ran into the carrier block. I talked to customer service, I even talked to some pretty knowladgable guys who said he was "heavy programming" to get my sms working lmao. my question to you is two fold.
is there any way to get the carrier to disable the spam filter?
what do you mean when you say messaging program?
thanks in advance

You can ask but they will most likely deny that it is there or just flat out refuse. It is a security thing and thankfully it is in place or we would have spamming sms like the rest of the world does.
As for a messaging program I mean something like Telegram, hangouts or something of that nature.

Unfortunately, it looks like the method I posted is not actually working. Messages sent above 30 were not actually being sent. Oh well... back to using my custom CM 13 based ROM that has increased the sms limit to 200 per minute. It's not totally unlocked but at least I can send more than 30 messages at once without being annoyed by the confirmation prompt. Bummer!

Anyone found a solution to this issue ?

Unfortunately, the only real solution I've found is to use a ROM that provides an option to increase or eliminate the SMS limit.

Use Allo, Skype, or Viber. Text message is a dying race anyway.

Unfortunately, unlike text messaging, those apps require everyone to use the same app.

That depends on where you live. In the states sms is still very widely used unlike the apps you mentioned.

If your device is supported, try flashing a custom ROM like Team OctOS (this is the one I'm using) or Cyanide M which has the limit removed.

This seems fairly odd that there wouldn't be a fix for Marshmallow... I mean, if a custom ROM can implement it, why couldn't a code edit somewhere resolve the issue? I understand that it could be limited on the carrier side, but speaking as someone who likes to occasionally mess with friends using an sms bomber on Verizon, I don't think they do THAT much limiting... Other carriers obviously might be different. Still, I don't understand why it can't be resolved at the phone level at least.

I am currently using another custom ROM created by @side called Optimized CM13 for the Samsung Galaxy S4 where he also removed the SMS limit. Maybe he can provide some answers to your questions. I agree it would be nice if there were an easy way to remove the limit on any ROM you chose.

Question Anyone pull the Custom Google Messages APK yet?

Now that the phone is officially out, has anyone outside the US pulled their Google Messages apk and uploaded it anywhere? Curious to see if we can get it working on the US variant.

What's different than the play store version?

It works with call/message continuity for people who have tablets (messages can normally only be forwarded if you use Samsung Messages). Might be some other cool stuff or differences too, but that's what I'm after.

Someone probably will need to repackage and sign it. Usually you can't just install a system app off of another device. I haven't been into Android modding/development for a few years, so hopefully someone can get that done now that we have this APK here.

If someone can get this working ,it would be great. I jumped to U TMO firmware to keep RCS and not lose text and phone on my TabS7+

We honestly might even need their Call & Text on Other Devices apk too. The current one we have tries to kick you off if another SMS app is installed.

I've tried to sign the app but, it still refuses to install. Let me know if any of you have any luck!

I don't have the watch or tablet so I don't need the continuity part. Annoyingly my s21 no longer has encrypted messages.

Is it not linked to the version in the Play Store for updates or beta sign up? Encryption was a beta feature.

It is still linked but whenever it updates it has a slightly different file name and no encryption. But the version number still matches the latest beta version. For now I uninstalled updates, sideloaded the regular version and disabled automatic updates.

Anyone manage to get this working yet?

I'd probably start a separate bounty thread for it. I don't want to make multiple threads on the same topic though myself, so I'll let someone else. It'll likely be a two part job though with both the Google Messages and Call & Text on Other Devices apps needing modifications.

Would also chip in if someone could get this working for us

Does anyone have any screenshots of the actual app. Are there any visual differences in the one ui messages version?

Just an FYI for anyone hoping to use RCS on their tablet
I got the beta on my exynos s21u and while it does work with the call & text anywhere feature, it currently only replies as SMS even if the inbound msg is RCS

I'll also contribute some funds to get this working if need be. Sad my S21 snapdragon doesn't come with it already. Samsung really needs to polish their brand and stop making it so diverse between countries.
