[Q] Planning to switch to android, can I move my iphone sms to my new phone? - General Questions and Answers

Planning to get the SGS3 or Note II. Has anybody done this successfully?
Thanks

Doesn't look like it. Even if you could somehow extract the sms data it would be difficult to get the new phone to read them. Just start fresh and forward any specific messages you need to keep?

Apparently works a charm.

Is Viber even possible on FK ?

Thanks ....
IDK but I use mysms. Works great, I think even better than Viber.
I am also interested in viber because lots of my friends are using viber. Is there anybody out there who managed to make is work on its KF?
Nobody????
[/COLOR]won't work because KF has no external Mic. I'll get a link to the old version of textplus rich let's you text anyone in USA poor Canada. (it has updated to calling so that's why it's the older version

I just tried, and viber won't ever work until someone gets Bluetooth running on it.

Ideas to get google now working?

I'm sure many of you have seen this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1749045
I was wondering if anyone had an idea on how to get this working on a sense based rom?

Have you tried it out yet? I'm gonna give it a shot right now and see what kind of results I get.

Well! That was interesting, and certainly we have some hope for our Sense ROMs.
The installation process went flawlessly, and I was able to add the Google Search widget from JellyBean. And it works! Well, mostly. The Voice Search doesn't work. When you go into the app and hit the microphone icon, it beeps and immediately tells me "sorry, didn't catch that." I'm going to try and update my Voice Search app to the JellyBean one, although now I'm venturing off the beaten path.
I'm not really sure how the rest of Google Now is supposed to work, so I can't yet verify how much of this is working and how much isn't.

Alright, I've got Google Now working on CleanROM 4.0SE!
Voice Search is broken, and some other things, but that's the same story for other users, even on AOSP.
To get it working, go here and follow the instructions in the first post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28226043&postcount=1 (same link as OP)
Then, in the same thread, jump to page 15 and follow the instructions in the second post down, #142 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28234189&postcount=142)
Nice find!
EDIT: A more active thread is in the Development forum, for anyone who's stumbled upon this.
awesome work man, appreciate you trying it out and everything. I was at work and didn't really have time to mess around with it at the time

Stacks Flashcards

Hey all,
I am participating in the Student App Challenge, so I wrote a cards-ui based flashcards app. I'd like to give away pro keys (it removes ads) for my app. Enjoy!
Link to app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.centum.android.stack&hl=en
Pro key link (just install alongside the above): https://www.dropbox.com/s/41dk6q73g7ytm8i/StacksProUnlocker.apk
Note: I am the developer of this app!
Thread reopened! There was some confusion about me actually being the developer of this app, so I'll leave it up for another day.
Thank you for the free pro unlocker!! I'll most likely use this for EMT stuff.

I like it so far, thank you. Is there an option to not show the answer/details section of the card when you open it? Currently when you open a card it has the answer showing by default. When you touch the card it disappears. Can this be reversed, so after opening a card it only shows the answers after you touch it instead?

Yup, I'll add an option to reverse it in the next update! The reason I did that was just because it's a preview. Testing sessions are actually what's in a QA format.
Oh, okay didn't realize that. Thank you ?

[Completed] Restricting internet access to specific apps when opened.

Greetings, XDA Assist!
I want to know if there is a way to restrict internet access to an Android app *ONLY* when it is opened.
For e.g, if I want to hide my last seen on WhatsApp, I switch off my WiFi/Data, and open WhatsApp -> Reply to the messages -> Close Whatsapp -> Turn Data on.
Is there a way to restrict internet access to only certain apps when they're opened, and regain access when they're closed?
It would be of great help if you direct me toward a solution, maybe a Tasker profile?
P.S - Classic XDA Lurker. Lurking for two years. Joined recently. You guys are brilliant. Keep up the good work!
Thanks in advance!
Hi there!
Depending on root or not, there's different option available
In your situation, I'd personally use Greenify
Or some custom ROMs have App Ops built in. You can select permissions on a per app basis. I don't think its quite what you're after in this case.
See if Greenify suits your needs. Read about it in the opening post in the thread I linked. ?
Good luck!!

And no, I don't think your example is going to hide last seen. As soon as you read or post anything, I'm sure it'll make you last seen. No matter how you try to hide it. As soon as you do download or upload. .. It knows you were on. Nothing will change that.
---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------
Yes, I misunderstood your goal. You want the opposite of what I was thinking.
If the app is open and no data or WiFi...the app will not function while you use it.
If you don't want people seeing your presence on social apps....you'd have to not use them. Lol
Take care.

Thanks for the reply!
I'm aware of Greenify and my ROM does have App Ops.
I wanted to know how to automate it ONLY when you open the app.
Open Whatsapp -> App stops accessing internet (OR) WiFi/Data gets switched off. [Preferably former]
Close app -> Regains internet access.
Something similar.
I'm sorry, I searched Google and XDA....found nothing like what your after. Lots on keeping it off data when closed....but not open. Again....you can toggle airplane mode on, then open it and test your theory...but I doubt it will have your desired results.
Here's a tasker guide, you can check it out, or ask in the thread perhaps.

Thanks for the reply msgm! I've already searched the site but can't still locate the gps antenna. All I saw was the wifi and bluetooth antennas.
