FYI: Bypass the "Touch the Android to Begin" - G Tablet General

I searched the G-Tab forum and did not find this tip, so I am posting it here (seems general enough).
(Useful for me because I often get stuck on this screen when I strip down certain ROMs: touching the Android does nothing for me). It might also be useful for people who just really do not want to touch and android...

[Q] [Android-CM9] What is a Shadow mode app?

Hello,
I was trying to develop a full screen application on Android CM9 for a Galaxy Tab 7" P1000 with the 20120407 build and HumberOS Kernel 20120325.
It appears that only shadow mode applications can be run in full screen (without combined bar).
As I am new and cannot post on developer sections, I am posting this there.
I looked in different sections (GTab specific, Android dev specific, other devices...) but could not find an answer :
What is a shadow mode Android application?
Well, another day in ignorance.
A bump for hope.
Well, if no answer in 10 bumps at least I will be able to post in an appropriate section.
I believe this is related to the screen and the softbuttons and hiding them and making apps go full fullscreen (lol).
This is just an educated guess though...
Well, at least an answer.
I knew that already because it is the purpose of my question but thanks anyway.
As for doing it, I put >> android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar.Fullscreen" << in my Android activity definition but this is not sufficient, that is why I was asking what is a shadow mode app.
Some people on the forum stated that only those apps could hide the soft buttons if along with it the correct option was checked in the parameters (and of course I checked it).
I tried some other application styles but none of them happened to put the activity in real full screen, without soft buttons.
I am going to check again and see if someone asked it in the past days!
Will keep you informed...
I know MX Video player can do it, maybe you can ask the dev if he can help you out?

The ANPR Droid headache, and some tylenol.

Hello,
I have been tasked by my company to further research the viability of implementing an ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition) based system. I have ruled out hard wiring a 120v camera since these are various remote locations I am trying to secure with ANPR. Since they are manned stations, the natural conclusion is an ANPR system. Something like this:
[I am too new and it won't let me post the youtube link, but if you search youtube for "MATRIX Android ANPR Rendszám azonosító" you'll find the video I speak of]
I have found many (at least 10) examples of similar functioning software, at least they appear to be, but nothing that is really for sale. I am new to this site but I know all of the experts are here. I'm wondering if either a) Any of you know of such commercially available software, or b) any of you are knowledgeable of how I can get it developed?
Thank you very much for your time and I hope this is posted in the right place.

Danya Mahota

[Completed] Screen Mirroring that allows control over the host device

Hello everyone.
First of all, I would like to point out that this is my first time posting here, and I have searched the forums. Although this place is simply huge and very hard to understand at first, I tried searching, and read the 2 sticky posts in this section.
If I still made an error by opening this thread, I sincerely apologize and request you do not hold it against me.
With that said, I will ask my question.
I am trying to do something that I believe has yet to be done.
I would like to mirror my Galaxy S4's screen to a tablet, and to be able to control my Galaxy from the tablet.
Here's why.
My plan is to purchase a tablet and place it in my car. This tablet will be anchored to the car's systems (Power, OBD2 Adapter, etc.) and will be un-removable.
The point of this is to minimize handling the phone while driving, by using the tablet to control the phone.
Nowadays, I have a small cellphone mount that is okay, but it requires placing the phone in it, and taking it out when I leave the car, and I would like something permanent.
I want to get into my car, plug the phone to its charger (or not if I don't need to charge it), and forget about it. Once the phone mirrors its screen to the tablet, I would like to be able to control my phone (answering calls, navigating, etc.) without actually using my phone.
So far, after many, many, MANY searches over the web, I have found apps that allow mirroring but without the control i'm looking for.
I tried thinking about other options, such as Chromecast connected to a small LCD screen, but that still doesn't give me the control I am looking for.
I even thought about trying to learn how to create Android apps by myself in order to make an app for this, but i'm just not good at learning, and have no idea on how hard is it to create an app anyway.
So, what i'm searching for is knowing how can I do this, if this is possible at all.
Will it require an android tablet? if so, which version of android is the minimum required? will it require any customization? maybe just an LCD screen with some adapter connected to it?
I am fresh out of ideas but I really don't want to give up.
Please help me!
I hope I explained myself properly, and if I did not, I sincerely apologize.
Best regards,
DC.

Interesting and tricky "project".
You may read and/or ask in the Samsung Galaxy S 4 i9500, i9505, i9505G, i9506 > Galaxy S 4 General > Screen Mirroring on Galaxy S4 [+Games] thread.
Not exactly what you need, but the users there seem to have innovative ideas, and may help.
Alternatively you can ask in the [HELP THREAD] Galaxy S4 | Ask any question | Noob friendly. thread.
Thread closed ... thank you !

[Android][Advice] How to make a "smart" bot?

I've been researching for a few days now, but I haven't found anything online that fits what I'm looking for, so I decided to post on the forums in the hopes that someone has experience with it.
I'm trying to make a "smart" bot for my Android that has all the features of a regular bot (inputs, pauses, etc.) but can wait for items/images to appear/disappear on screen (like loading bars). I also want it to trigger a certain macro if a certain image appears on the screen (error messages/dialogues).
What are some tools I can use for this?
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
The Galaxy S7 has multiple variants and builds. Normally when asking this kind of question, you should include the model of your device. That way anyone wanting to help you actually has the knowledge to be able to do so. Phones have different internal parts, memory space, and so on. You can find your model number by doing the following:
- slide down the notification bar, sometimes you may have to slide down twice depending on the device. Click the gear in the upper right hand corner. "Settings"
OR
- Access your app drawer or all apps section and find your "settings" section/app. Most of the time it will have a icon of a gear, or three lines that resemble on off switches. Older androids sometimes use just have three lines (as the settings icon)
- Find the section labeled "About Device / Device Info" its usually labeled something similar if not exactly. Open this section
(Galaxy phones usually have this section at the bottom of your "settings" section)
- Somewhere within this section, there will be a label that reads "Model" and that is your specific variant which is needed in device specific situations.
* Take Note of this for future reference. You might think okay ill remember that. But when you come to realize your devices model number may be XDA-2017T1 and you look for something pertaining your device. You will also find something like this:
XDA-2017
XDA-2017YP
XDA-2017YP2
XDA-2017T0
XDA-2017T2
XDA-2017T10
Assuming that you will continually update and/or customize your phone. You will probably just memorize this, along with other important information. Some important things you should include while researching is as follows (the top two are very important)
1. [Model Number] ex) XDA-2017T1
2. [Android Version] ex) 6.0.1 Marshmallow
3. [Baseband]
4. [Kernel]
5. [Chipset]
6. Is device "rooted?"
7. Is the bootloader unlocked?
8. GSM or CDMA. Older devices even use IDEN
Those are only some.
* I also want you to know that im not trying to lecture you, or give you a hard time. I am honestly trying to help you and in order to successfully help you I have to ensure that you know things, or mention things, that is important to do. So your device isnt broken, or you get information that is correct but incorrect for your specific device.
But back to the topic originally referenced.
Q) "Is the program Dr. Fone able to bypass the screen lock security measures on the Samsung Galaxy S7?"
A) Based on limited information that is device specific, and the current Supported Devices section from Dr Fones documentation
"No"
• Dr. Fone doesnt have the capabilty to bypass your screen lock. They will probably include the S7 within a period of time due to it being a main stream phone though.
• Remember this; locks can and will be broken. Just because a vulnerabilty hasnt been exposed or discovered doesnt mean that its 100% secure.
• Keep current with OTA updates, keep in tune with tech type news.
• Encryption is vast subject, but I can refer to it like the "invisible magical ink" That was popular in the 90's. The light that reveals the ink to the naked eye, is your password. The inabilty to see the ink normally without a specific tool, would be encryption. So if someone cracked your password, your encryption would also be disabled. I linked more information below, for you to read. I still dont fully understand encryption myself, nor do I believe or trust it.
I based this information assuming your device is the SM-G930. It is accurate as possible but not guaranteed. Do realize with the information I mentioned and with the question you asked. I was able to do a simple Google search and almost immediately found the answers. Try to figure things out before you ask in the future. You can repeat the process of not researching prior to posting but typically your post will die. If you get stuck and have put forth honest effort, the great people here at XDA will probably help out greatly. I hope I have helped you, and you now feel better about your concerns. please pay it foward.
If you feel ive helped or gave a honest attempt to help. Hit the thumbs up, that is the thanks button.

I'm sorry, I completely forgot to mention the model of my S7, it is the SM-G930F on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, thanks for answering me.
On the other hand, I'm disappointed that a commercial program can unlock a phone.
I hope that this way of circumventing the locking of smartphones will be solved, because malicious people could use it to unlock phones that do not belong to them ...
The only way to protect yourself from this program is to install an application that protects personal data.
Thank you again for answering!
Wondershare Dr. Fonefor unlooking thr screen.
Wondershare Dr. Fone is a powerful instrument to regain iPhone lost information, it can help scan and recover them from iTunes or iCloud copies in case you've got backup your iPhone into iTunes or iCloud, or it helps you regain contacts directly from the device. Besides it's harmonious with iPhone 5s/5c/4S/ / 4/3GS and it might recover 18 kinds of content such as pictures, videos, contacts, messages, notes, and phone log, voicemail, voice memos, calendars, reminders, etc.. :good:
I agree with you. A commercial program available for a few dollars can unlock a password protected phone. What is Android/ios waiting to solve this threat?
