Hey folks! I just wanted to point everyone to my free, open-source app, GMarks.
Features
Sync your browser bookmarks with a GMarks label
Live folders for any label
Integrated global search
Create GMarks quickly from the browser's "share" menu
Free and open-source!
Check out some screenshots.
GMarks is available on the Android Market, and also as an APK download from the project website. Please try it out, and leave feedback!
Excellent, but I will wait until the 2-step authentication, because I can't log in with out it.
Thank you!
Thanks for letting me know Alex -- I've had a couple people mention it now so now that I know how popular this feature is I'll work more quickly to get it released! Here's the issue page so you can track the progress:
http://code.google.com/p/gmarks-android/issues/detail?id=31
I'll probably release a test build too so users like you can test it before it's published to the Market. Thanks again for the feedback!
Sure, Tom, go ahead and drop a test build here as soon as you can, thanks!
I love this type of apps . Open source and free even tough is works better than many paid-for apps!

I had the issuse with 2-step verification too. But if you check the above-mentioned link about the issue, you'll see someone mentioned a workaround you can use until it has been fixed in the program itself.
Good to see the issue being responded to so quickly btw .
But what I came here for:
I was happy to read about interaction with my phone's browser, except it doesn't work for me. I enabled it in the settings, I pointed it towards a label, I synced it, but no bookmarks turn up in my phone's browser (I am using the Google Android browser), and no new bookmarks are added to the existing Google Bookmarks label either.
Using:
- Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (running Android 2.2.1)
- GMarks 0.6.3
Logging in succeeded (using the above workaround), I get to see the labels and bookmarks in the app, it's only the interaction with the browser's bookmarks that does not seem to work for me.
Let me know if there is more information you need.
Edit:
I'm Dutch, and willing to help when any additional Dutch translation is needed.
Oh, I see. Maybe enable application specific password would also be great.
Two-factor auth support
Hey folks: I've enabled two-factor auth support in the latest build here:
http://code.google.com/p/gmarks-and...android-0.6.4-SNAPSHOT-2-aligned.apk&can=2&q=
try it out and let me know if you encounter any problems!

After replacing the older version with this updated one, I saw I was stilled logged in (I used the workaround). I stopped the app and removed it's data (via the Settings->Manage Applications thing), and started it again to log in properly using the 2-step verification. The login worked as expected*. But my bookmarks are not syncing. The message tells me it's syncing, a message tells me it has finished syncing after only a second or two (back when it actually did sync, the first full sync took much longer than that), but no bookmarks show up in GMarks.
On a Samsung Galaxy S I9000 (running Android 2.2.1).
Let me know if you need any further information.
*Except for a minor detail:
When I enter the username and password for my account, I press Sign in, and I arrive at the Verify page, as expected. Now I press my Home button to go to Google's app that provides the verify code. When getting back to GMarks, it's back at the login screen, with empty username and password fields. So I have to repeat the first step of the two-step verification. Not very critical, but a little bit annoying, so it would be nice if there's an easy fix for this .

Yeah that's tricky. I'll have to see if I can detect that a password has already been typed, and attempt to restore that verification code page if it's already been loaded.
You might be able to switch between apps without the GMarks login page reloading by using the "Hold home button" to switch between apps without going to the launcher in between.
Either way, this is an issue that clearly I need to keep working on. Thanks again for your patience and feedback!
Any response to my other issues I wrote about in the above posts?
1) Nothing syncing between GMarks and my browser. (Post #5)
2) Newer version: nothing syncing. At all. (Post #8)

Hi jjwa,
Thanks for working with me to resolve this. I've attached another APK for you to try. After installing, go to Application Management-> GMarks -> Clear Data and give it another try.
If that doesn't work, do you have the SDK tools installed? I can't reproduce this problem so I'd have to rely on getting debug information from you via the "adb logcat" tool.
I apologize for the trouble, and appreciate you're helping me make GMarks better!
Thanks again. Let me know how the new APK goes or if you need instructions on how to use logcat.

The APK did not produce a different result compared to the previous one as far as I could see.
I currently don't have a working USB cable, so I tried out apps for the adb logcat thing. I have used adb before, but I have no experience logcat, so if you need it done with differently settings (I was now logging at the 'Error' filter level btw). I've sent a log to your gmail adress instead of posting it here, because I wasn't sure there was no information in there I would not want to have up in public...
For recording the logs, I repeated the Clear Data steps, started the log apps, logged in on GMarks, let it attempt it's sync, and then told the apps to email their logs.
Let me know if this is sufficient or if you need me to do it differently or do something else.
P.S. Random curiosity: the log is getting spammed massively with 'WPA supplicant' messages. I know that's related to my WiFi. Any idea why it's going so crazy? Should it? Is it just the security protocal chitchat?
Which passwords should I insert? Can I insert the Application specific one? I'm not comfortable inserting my password just to use the credentials, now that we have specific passwords...

Hi Alex,
Unfortunately you have to use your own, normal password (followed by a verification code if you've enabled two-factor auth.) One-time use passwords unfortunately don't work here - they only work for AuthSub enabled services and the Bookmarks service (as far as I know) doesn't support AuthSub. I tried to use a one-time password myself and the login page rejects it and says as much.
The reason GMarks for Android directs the user to the Google login webpage is exactly because I expect users would (or *should*) be wary of inputting their username and password directly into an Android app. (Lots of apps still seem to do this anyway...) Because you are logging in through the webpage, the GMarks app never sees your username or password.
If it makes you feel any better, if you have two-factor auth enabled, any app that _did_ capture your username and password wouldn't be able to log in without the additional verification code. And the verification codes only work once so that code can't be 'stolen' and used to log into your account from somewhere else.
Sorry! I think this is the best anyone can do until Google releases a real Bookmarks API...
Two-factor auth support
Hi folks -- here's a new 0.6.4 build with two-factor auth support.
Entering in the verification code is still a bit of a pain in the ass, but I think it's the best that can be done. Once you enter your username & password in GMarks you get directed to the verification page, at which point you have to switch to the Google Authenticator app.
You can do this quickly if you open the Authenticator app first and then long-press the home button to switch between the two activities. You can also copy the verification code from the Authenticator app by long-pressing on the number. Then you can paste it into the browser textbox in GMarks.
This build also includes the ability to fully re-sync with the server, which will resolve any sync problems and remove stale bookmarks that might have been left on your device if you've deleted bookmarks via the web interface. It's the last item when you go to Menu->Settings. Since this re-downloads *all* of your bookmarks it should be something that is not done often, hence the reason why it's a bit 'hidden away.'
Tom,
thanks for your detailed and excellent answer. I'll try this latest build and come back with results.
[Edited] Seems to be working very well for me. The only comment would be the same as previously stated: when validating the code, you need to leave the application to go to Google authenticator, when you come back, you need to re-enter user and password...
Thanks!

Alex! You'll be happy to hear I realized there's a much more elegant way to make this work -- I can launch the Authenticator activity straight from GMarks (if you have it installed.) So you can copy the code and just hit 'back' to get back to enter it into the verification page.
Try out the attached build. I think it's a big improvement over the prior solution.
Hi,
Is the version on the market not the latest? I've the market version that says 0.6.4, but 2-factor authentication behave the same as before.

Ooh, that's creepy. I've staged an update but not published it yet. Odd that the Market is now showing the description for 0.6.4 even thought the admin console clearly shows that the last published version is 0.6.3.
You didn't get a Market update, did you?
I plan to publish 0.6.4 soon! I was hoping to get some feedback from the build that I attached in my last post to see if everything looked like it was working correctly first.
If you haven't seen it yet, 0.6.4 is _actually_ released now. I've had some feedback already that two-factor auth is working smoothly now (in addition to my own testing) so you should be good to go! http://goo.gl/AbeDh
sorry if this is posted elswhere but i have look for the past hour for this answer.
i have the amazon appstore installed on my desire hd, but im in the uk.
i made a fake email and set it up to look like im in the US.
now i want to install custom mods on my phone but i cant remember the email i used to register with amazon.
no where can i find it mentioned in the app and no where can i find any data on my unrooted DHD.
i no what password i used but just need the email i used.
is there anyway i can find out which email ive used.
i ask because i dont want to lose all the free apps of the day that i have.
thanks in advance
Same problem here... I dont think its possible to recover login email. the appstore saves an encrypted file with your device data, so if you backup and then restore in the same device, should be no problem

I tried backing up the swtor authenticator via titanium backup before flashing upgrade for rom..
After upgrade and restore of this app it seems the app crashes inside, deleting data is a no go, need this app restored to its fullest..
Any way it might be the secured partition for critical apps like this to be restored?
If so, how would i restore an older backup of that partition to a newer version.
I might add that im running virtuous 1.3.0 and want to upgrade to the 1.4.0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for replying!
Well the thing is that the application is bound to my account on swtor.com and the data stored is neccesary for the application to authenticate correctly, as it contains randomly generated login codes for my account.
Reinstalling the application means i have to bind it to the account once again, and thats not possible if you already have, now the tricky part, if you want to deattach an authenticator you need to contact their customer support (EA), and that can take up to 7 days to get any kind of help.
Now i want to take the easy way of just backing up everything neccesary for the application so that i may upgrade roms without being afraid of loosing the account access..
I don't think you will have any choice but to call EA and get them some help, I have tried this with the Google and Blizzard 2 factor auth apps and I have had to redo it every time, normally though you have special codes you can use in cases like this, google will also send you a text as an alternate way of authenticating.
The same problem here... got new phone and can't use mobile security key on the new one :/

That's a security thing, if you could it would defeat the entire purpose of having it, download and install it fresh ans set it up again

Clearly you haven't worked with Blizzard's version of this concept. They set their app up to allow a special set of codes to be generated just for this purpose, so you could wipe a device, start over, install their app, plug in those codes, and you're golden.
I already went through this nonsense with this app and had to call support to have it removed from my account, at which point they inform you that you will no longer be able to use a security key with your account. This, my friends, is what you call a MAJOR FAIL.
If I had more time to play with it, I would have started searching around on the phone for additional files that might have accompanied the app. I definitely tried the Titanium thing, but to no avail. They have got to be using some sort of key file, like RSA or something, but without knowing the details we won't be able to backup and restore this thing.
My recommendation is this. If you have the time, patience, and ability to search and have an idea of what you are looking for, see if you can solve this problem yourself and share your findings with the community. Otherwise, call support, abandon the app, and give the mental middle-finger to EA for their fail.

Interestingly enough the same company mad both blizzards and swtors security apps. Personally I wish I knew what I am looking for but I have been unable to find any additional file that will make it work.
Some other things to note is I saved the Serial number and Auth. Code that bioware gave me and after I learned that titanium backup would not work I pulled out my galaxy tab 10.1 and installed the app and reused the info to no avail.
Any help with this would be much appreciated! Thanks!
I read multiple threads at swtor.com and at the moment the only possibility is removing the sercurity key via the phone-customer-support.
So, no news on this front.
Does someone have news regarding this problem? Do we still have to call customer support?

For WoW when I had an issue, Flashed a ROM without realising the world of pain I'd entered. I had to go through Customer Support, they even wanted a photo document (driving License or Passport). Eventually it got removed.
After that I ran the authenticator on my older Android phone.
Your best bet is to nandroid restore to the original, de-link the authenticator, then install the new ROM and authenticator. Then re-link the new authenticator codes.
Eventually I gave up and just removed the authenticator from WoW, life is too short already.

That's the problem, with SWTOR's Security Key you CAN NOT add a new "digitial security key" once you've already had one attached. Their current solution is for you to buy a physical key, once they remove the digital one.
Yesterday i switch to another ROM, and when i reinstall SWTOR Security Key, it asked me for a serial number and activation code. I tried to restore app with Titanium Backup and other similar apps with no luck. Then i opened a ticket to swtor support team, and they respond me that i need to call customer support. After a 12 min conversation, and asking at 2 security questions they remove security key from my account.
After that, in my account i still have the option to attach a security key again. But i will attach it only when they will add a option to remove that security key from account manager.

If you flash roms often you should invest in mauth in the market its like 3$ I think but it lets you back up you wow auth. online and restore it to any android device. also I think you can backup the blizzard one with titanium back up and it will still work.
Delance; on swtor forum said:
before u upgrade, run the Restore feature in the app, you'll get a serial number and a restore code.
Write that down.
Then, when u get the new phone, you can use the restore feature again, enter in the serial # and restore code, and it will work for your account again.

There is no solution at that link. Read to the end--there is simply no "restore" feature associated with this app, and the current and only way to handle a ROM switch is to call Customer Support and have them remove it from the account...every single time. If there is something to back up, it's probably an encrypted file that cannot simply be restored, especially if the thing truly is secure. That's the whole point of an authenticator--security.
I just ran into this issue. I'm about to have to call Customer Support to remove it. I'm replying to say that after this B.S. I'm going to get the physical key. I was being cheap, but I preferred the physical key for WoW anyway, due to not having to find my phone, hope it wasn't dead, and deal with the constant crashes on the SWTOR android app. So basically, unlink the key, then buy a physical one if you want a security key still.
Removed!
In this link, if you already log-in, you can remove all security keys:

They dont want users to remove it easily.

well its an app, so it definitely has to be somewhere. you can try /device>data>app, thats where user apps are, it might be there. failing that, i would download es file explorer and go the topmost folder, that contains all other folders, and search for all apk files, it probably will find it. if it dosent, search again with ispyoo as the saerch keyword, if tthat still hasnt found it use recovery to totally wipe the entire device.
or just ask the person who put it on to remove it.

They have option to login to the website with usersname and password, and then go to uninstall option. It gets uninstalled from there to your phone.
We cornered the guy!!, and then he(scared) removed it using the users name and password he signed up for it. (A legendary old method for app solution!)
It even had option to disallow certain apps, or stop apps in the target phone. Do you believe? Now all good.
Thank you for your concern and help )

Hello bro, were you able to remove it from iphone? I had no idea... may be you reset the iphone? I hope something worked for you.
so, question still remains, how do you check the program is installed or not if it is hidden?
To check if the app is installed or not (while its hidden) you should have root access in your phone. Open the root directory and system folder and search for the installed apps. In this folder you will see all the installed apps on your phone wether they are hidden or visible.
Btw these days not only the syping apps are spying on users but even the utility or gaming apps spy on users via microphone or taking screenshots of device display to collect data and show revelent ads to them.
As the title say time I install a new rom or do a factory reset it looks like I've been hacked. As soon as I register and connect my phone to the internet google security activity shows that my phone has been connected from Irland or Germany although I'm connecting from Sweden. How can this be explained if I'm not being hacked? I take all the security measures, changing password etc... But yet this problem doesn't go away. Does this happen to anyone else?
give us more detail
did happen only with one device or more? what do u use for root, wich rom, custom recovery do u install? wich kind of gapps do u use? it happen just when u install the rom/recovery, or when u set up the gapps?
the foreign connection message is inside the gmail account? do u see foreign ip address logged when u are not logged or just foreign ip when u are logged? (this question is because maybe something use a vpn)
I use Viperone rom, but it does't matter what rom I use. As soon as i logg in to my google account it happens, on the google security activity where I can see my devices, it shows that I logged in from Irland or Germany, and after that it goes back to show that I logged in from Sweden. So far I noticed that it only happens on my phone, but in the past it use to happen on my PC too, and it does not show the ip address, it only shows the name of the country. This is how it looks like: http://imgur.com/2A9ZBJy Tyskland is Germany in Swedish and it's not supposed to be there with Irland.

when u install rom and configure gapps r u using your wifi? because is strange it happens also with your pc, maybe the problem is in your LAN, it happens just after the gapps setup after a fresh install or also later?
do u ose official gapps (and where is the source) or do u use other kind of gapps?
The roms that I use has allready Google apps installed. This time it happened right after I logged in to my phone. In the past it happened a day later.
It's possible that the new rom had it's location history set to those locations.. And Google apps like a good little app is telling where your are...
But it's wrong until it gets a proper location update.

Nope. I'm definitely being hacked. Everything points towards it. I change my password I format my PC I install the original android to my phone, same **** happens. It was not like this before.
There is a trojan that can not be found by virus, malware and trojan software. This bastard got me. I think it could be the government.
Now it looks like this,I got USA instead of Germay http://imgur.com/uYDxZ1j Am i being hacked or not? 6th februari is the day i changed my password, compare it with the first picture i posted.
make 2 new google account with your pc
wipe your phone and install a rom, than configure it with one new account
use it for a day
than with your pc go in both account and see if are both comprimised or not
Let's assume the worst thing, that I am being hacked. How can I stop this from happening? I already changed password (I'm doing that from time to time), I use 2 step verification and sms verification when I login to my Gmail and I got virus, malware and firewall softwares, what else can I do? How am I being hacked?

Maybe not on this forum, but there are other forums.
What rom are you using? Where did you get it?
What email app are you using?
Who is your internet provider for your device?
All of these can be factors in you being hacked...
Your rom could have a Trojan on it.
Your email could be not properly storing your password.
(Your not using the factory email app that uses the account your signed info your phone with are you? Please say no)
Is your internet provider known for making a federal case out of every request for information or do they give it out to anyone with a badge?
More information is needed before you can be helped.
First off change roms...
If you are using a oem rom get a custom rom from a popular developer.
Then change email providers
(Unless you are taking Google)
Then dump the two factor crap
Get a third party open source email app or use tor to sign in by web mail.
Change and set your password from a cafe or hotel Wi-Fi that is nowhere where you usually go.
Then see if you think you are being hacked..
If so trash the phone
Get a new one with cash..
Root it secure it
Try again
And if that still looks bad..
User paper and one time pads for encryption and safe drop points.
