In System Table:
agps_slp.... Anyone knows how to exchange the crappy Chinese AGPS with Google SUPL. Is just changing the IP address from China mobile to supl.google.com enough?
location_whilte_list - not sure what this does - but might make sense to add google maps to it besides the chinese apps.
If you use other media playess - or youtube revanced - add it to the SDR2HDR list.
Setting_Vivo_Store_enhance - may make sense to change it from 1 to 0.
There is a benchmark mode. If you set it manually to 1 all apps and not just the ones that are on the list further down will work fast and disrespect the temperature limits.
apps_toast_status is some sort of whitelist - maybe makes sense to put often used/important apps there?
In Globalt Table:
flt_white_pkg_list
not really sure what that is used for.
i think i will play with it a little
Install setedit app. Tell us if you find something interesting. But I prefer to use adb shell for actual commands. Setedit app is great to see what exists.

Hello everyone,
i'm trying to collect some Network Statistiks from within my App and run into trouble doing this on the Galaxy S i9000.
Procedure is to get the output from "dumpsys batteryinfo" and parse the output
to collect lines like this:
"#1001:
Network: 415,78KB received, 700,21KB sent"
While this will work on mostly all other Android devices, same did not work on the Galaxy, because there are definitly no lines with these information. They are just missing.
Where are these kind of data collected on the Galaxys modified plattform ?
Are they collected in some other place ? If yes where can i find these historical logged informations?
Thanks for your help in advance !
there is an application to monitor wireless data usage in Android Market
i forgot the name, but it was mentioned a few times on the App section of this forum
Thanks, i know there are many apps in the Market, which are collecting data about wireles network traffic. But all of these apps just add up all the collected values .. regardless which app is causing the traffic. (Just because there is no official method for this delivered by the API.)
What i'm doing with my app, is to differenciate which app will use how much traffic ... this is done by the UID of the specific app causing traffic and the corresponding receive/sent values which i showed in my opening posting.
The #1001 is the UID of this app or process. With this you can easily determine the app/process name.

Oh myvoss.. That's just brilliant =) Have you been able to identity that the UID is always the same for a certain app? Ooooohhh I see a big project there
/me offers himself as a dev-betatester-debugger =)
cheers
Not really Phk,
until now i found no way to clearly identify these process UIDs by that way. The corresponding API-Methods just return "null" on these UIDs. Even parsing the packages.xml and compare the UID/sharedUID doesn't solve that.
But anyhow, i won't stop looking for an other way.
If you want to be able to limit a certain app to "X" mbytes per month (or something like that), you'll have to take another approach, kind of like a firewall implementation.
I don't know but i think you can do it either with iptables hooking your app to all traffic, or you could (in the worst scenario) have to replace a system linked library to implement a hook..
but these are just my brainstorms
Where is the connection between retriving network statistics and limiting certain apps to "X" megabytes ....

Just read yourself again, lol... Sorry if thought ahead.
You're right when you say all netcounters just add up values. Don't you think it would be great, for example, to limit market to 50% traffic and chat to 10% of monthly plafond?
Anyway i see that's not your point with your app... it would be great though.
is there anyway to root or jailbreak the lumia 521?
only had it for one day and i hate it.. anyone find a root or jailbreak?
1) Learn to search.
2) Not yet (duh, if you'd searched you'd know).
3) Why the heck did you get a phone without doing even basic research?
4) Is there something *specific* you want to do? There are some tricks possible with stock dev-unlock.
All of the above and what do you think your going to be able to do once its "broken" ...there's not a lot really hidden from you at the moment. One of the beauties of WM is there's practically no real need to root it or at least no huge gain atm.

Oh, I *quite* disagree with that last statement. Things that I've done, even with the limited control available right now:
Moved the map data folder to the SD card.
Made my ATIV S show three normal tile columns on Start.
Been able to sideload more than 10 applications at once (and 10 is the limit for a paid account; free ones get 2 or 3).
Been able to directly sideload my ebooks.
Make an app to enable wired tethering on my phone (isn't limited like WiFi tethering, which doesn't work for me anyhow... another thing I hope to fix, though).
Set up custom theme colors.
Access the certificate store.
Edit the HOSTS file.
Add IE favorites easily.
There's a ton more that I'm still investigating, too:
Changing file associations, even ones that are supposed to be locked to built-in apps (like .MP3).
Custom system components (replace or modify the keyboard or Start screen).
Port Win32 programs, even ones that require drivers such as openvpn.
Change the default search engine.
Make the ringtone volume controllable separately from the system volume.
Toggle services on and off with one tap.
Enable raw network sockets (support other protocols than TCP and UDP, do security testing from my phone, etc.)
Lots more...

I was trying to find the practicality on doing it for WP8, but I couldn't recall exactly what all was added feature wise on WP7. This kind of clears things up why InteropUnlock is so valuable.
Hello!
What I'm trying to do is record the frequency of apps that I use. I'd plan on making a database and then just updating a counter field by 1 each time the app is used.
Now .. here's my problem. In the profile there is the application context but I'd have to check off every app I have on my phone. That could become a real pain if I add apps. I like to try different apps to see if they're any good, so I'd still like to track those. There is zero in the event context to detect an app launch or the app being used in the foreground.
I'm not sure if there is a shell command to get such information either and if there is can an unrooted device access it?
I appreciate the help/input!

I've been using Mock Location (enabled through developer options) to occasionally change my location appearance to apps. What I'd like to be able to do is to enable it selectively for only certain apps. For example, I want Google Maps to always see my real location, but Facebook and Instagram to always see the same location no matter where I am. That way I can still take advantage of general localisation (by setting it into the middle of the city centre) without it knowing specifically where I am.
So far though I haven't found anything that's able to do this. I've been using Fake GPS but that does it for every app, there's no way to set it to specific ones. I've also tried setting up Secure Folder (no way to do Mock Locations within Secure Folder that I could see), I've tried using Island and Parallel Space but couldn't find any way to do it through that either.
I've also thought about having a Tasker/Automate setup that turns on Fake GPS each time I open one of the apps on the list, but that seems somewhat clumsy and likely to cause issues.
Does anyone have any suggestions or ideas I might have missed? I feel like this should be easy but it doesn't seem to be.
Hello.
I wanted to create a thread for apps that I personally use and find useful. I will update the main post with other recommendations if they are well known and safe to use with our device.
I may change the layout of this post in the future to help organize it when we get alot of apps. but for now i'll do what i can with the apps that I personally use.
The apps listed are in no particular order of preference. they're just typed as I see them on my phone. I may setup a top 10 in this post eventually when more people comment on the apps they use. (most of the links are google play store of canada. if they do not work for you, try searching in your own country.)

Waze - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.waze&hl=en_CA
Some small info on the apps.
Media monkey - should be self explanatory its quite possibly the best music app on android, ans windows for that matter.
MMremote - is a client side app to control the windows version of media monkey with your phone.
VLC - its the best full featured and supported video player on Android.
youtube vanced - just a different version of youtube with more features and options.
Amaze file manager - my favorite manager it due to its side by side dual screen, makes copy and pasting to different locations very easy.
Terminal emulator - for when your PC is out of reach
Greenify - may not be needed on this phone, but its still an excellent app manager to keep any battery hungry background apps sleeping when you turn off the screen
Wifi analyzer - I've been using this same app for over 10 years. its excellent to see and check the quality of the wifi channels around you. and troubleshooting connection issues
Night mode - for those with sensitive eyes, I use this to turn the brightness down even more than the stock level. (just dont forget to turn if off before going out in the sun)
Cool tool - this is to show all sorts of information. I use it to show the temperature of the CPU and GPU on the nav bar
DNS66 - this tool saves my sanity. I hate adverts with a passion. its gotten from a alternate app store. best non root adblocker imo.
Gazbuddy - is a community aided app, it shows and records all the prices of Gas / petrol in the US and Canada. at each station. its great for finding cheaper gaz than your local station.
Waze - this is a google maps alternative. it needs data to run, it shows more real time stuff than google, and updates road closures quicker than google. this is also a community added app.
Thank you for dropping by. I hope some of these apps help others. None of these apps are mine. I am only sharing my experiences and personal opinion of good apps for most android phones. if anyone does have trouble with any app that i've posted, its still best to report it to the developer through Google play store. but if you do have an issue that i can help with I will.
Is there something specific I have to do to get DNS66 working or did it break in the past two months?
Also why can't I install Youtube Vanced without MicroG? I don't need to login to my account.

not sure about youtube vanced, I took the installer form the XDA page.
but with DNS66 its been working fine for me. it may need a restart.
some of the host files don't update all the time, i turn off HP'shosts as Stevens hosts has all of HPs,
but i'd recommend just manually turning off the server, running an update for the host files then manually turning it back on.
sometimes the VPN breaks when moving to and from wifi, I've not experienced it on the RM5 but I have had it happen on other devices.
