Android "JellyBean" version 4.1.2 is rolling out for Verizon RAZR, RAZR Maxx and RAZR HD and other models and an unadvertised feature is finally enabled; the Message Access Profile (MAP) and the Phone Book Access Profile (PBAP, PBA).
If you have a limited Bluetooth phone like mine, you probably experienced that the Office functions are limited, getting Text only if you are lucky. To get the feature on Motorola RAZR, in Android, check Settings > About Phone and see if you have an update available. The working version is shown here.

Once you have it installed, re-pair the phone to Bluetooth in your BMW and during the pairing process watch your phone for permission dialogs to allow the two BT profiles. You should see this when the update is installed in the About Phone screen.
On the Control Display you see a new option like this:
And your messages look like this:
This may seem like no big deal if you have another phone that works, but for those who have been suffering without having an email reader (yes it uses text to speech on emails) it is a welcome feature. Email can show multiple accounts.
If you want to try getting an early release of this update, try this link: http://www.droidrzr.com/index.php/t...original-verizon-droid-razr-how-to-keep-root/
Calendar, Notes and Tasks are still not working however there may be a patch for that also.
Alternatively, you can take another approach by having a PC toggled to your I-Drive. http://www.realcarpc.com

WiFive
Wi-Fi chat
Let the social be with you.
Launch WiFive application and immediately start chatting with whose who is using it too within your Wi-Fi network. No Internet needed. Also, there is no need to set up a server. Simple, eh?
But of cause there are some conditions.
In order to receive messages your device should not ignore broadcast UPD packets (as long as I know some devices are doing it, for example HTC)
Your Wi-Fi network should not block UPD packets (as long as I know some network managers are doing it). But it's OK if you are creating Wi-Fi Spot yourself. Google it, it's pretty straightforward.
Also, be aware of some possible message loss.
Have fun with unlimited communication!
Application is also available in Google Play.

I believe you can't make that open source..?
Hi your application is exactly what I need. I want to built a rover controlled by an arduino that is connected via usb to the first android phone. With the second one I want to send the control data (speed, direction). I've already implemented the control of the arduino and i can stream the video to my controller application. Your application would be the perfect way for exchanging the control variables between my phones.
If you could post the source code it would really help me a lot!
Just updated my US GSM (xt1034) to KK443 last night, had done a restore from the factory image because I had made a change to the system making the OTA fail and complain about my gmail apk.
Anyhow, all went well, 443 was running, restored apps via TB, everything was kosher. Seems like the issue of it playing an annoying beep when unlocking the lockscreen started right after I went to the Motorola site to test the lost device thing. I told it to play an alarm, it worked, could not turn it off like you can do with Google's Device manager. Had to power off via the menu while the alarm was blaring, had this rogue beep upon lockscreen unlock ever since.
Goddamnit! Pissing me off. Hate to do a factory reset after I just did the full monte last night.
Any bright ideas?
Googling failed me btw.
Added a wav of the sound, plays along with the regular Android sound which you can't hear. Had to zip it, can't upload wavs here?

Went back to the Motorola device manager page to try to re-enact and this is what they call "Peace of Mind"

Easiest Solution
I encountered this exact problem on my G...after much headaches and fidgeting with settings....decided to simply reboot and re-use the moto website to ring youmy device again & after unlocking your phone the beep should go away

Google announced today that the Hangout app for Android and iOS will get a major update. It starts today with the Android, the version for iOS will follow later.
This update will be focused on "staying connected with friends and family", who then is the purpose of basic Hangouts and any messenger program.
We see point point what are the new notes, although Google says that there are others not announced, but find out only after trying the app:
Sticker : penguins, pirates, koalas and of course cats at will! 16 new sticker pack (and more coming), saying with images what words can not.
Filters for video calls : sepia, vignette, black and white and others. Just a swipe during a video call to try them all and make the conversation more original.
Last seen : the same way as WhatsApp, Hangouts will inform us of the last activity of our contacts
Smart suggestions during conversations : for example, if someone asks "where are you?", Hangouts will show an option to share our location on the fly.
And beyond that, of course, the graphics in Material Design .
At the moment we don't have the APK to share, and for now the Play Store does not give hints to update, but we will update this article when it becomes available the file to download. Bookmark this and Stay tuned!
I've created an android app which will forward persistent notifications to the Gear S2. I's a work in progress but I believe I have it stable enough to use. I mostly created this originally to get google maps turn by turn on my watch and haven't tested much past that. If you feel up to it please download the development build and let me know what you think. After installing the app make sure you launch it, tap the three bard in the top right, tap "Notification Settings" and finally set "Gear S2 Persistant Notifications" to on. Once you've done this you should start seeing them appear on your watch. If you want to hide any notifications open the app and uncheck the box, this will cause that notification to no-longer appear on your watch. Bugs will be tracked using GitHub so if you wind any issues please post them there!

Google Maps
anybody use this? i'm thinking about pulling the trigger on a gear S2 and the google maps thing would be huge for when i'm on the motorcycle.
Super useful. But it's force closing a lot on the LG v20 stock Android 7.0
An Example: Deleting a file within FX File Explorer causes your app to force close.
Been able to reproduce the issue every time.
So, I've been looking all over the internet for 2 years (approx.) from time to time for this query.
My device: I have a Motorola X(4) device which came with near stock Android.
My question: how can I see who is connected to my hotspot.
What have I tried so far: I see apps in playstore for scanning Wi-Fi and not what I want (which is to see devices connected to hotspot). I've search for web with no helpful answer, everyone seems to confuse about Wi-Fi scanner. I don't want a Wi-Fi scanner
In few answers I see people showing steps to do this, but I don't see the last option 'View Who is Connected' in my device. I have attached screenshots for reference.

Hi there,
Although motorola is close to stock Android, they have the annoying manner of removing very little, yet useful features like that. You're supposed to have a menu to see what device are connected, like me (I'm using OxygenOS, and even with their "overlay" they left the feature).
Unfortunately I don't know how to help you on this one. When I had a motorola (Moto E 2015 LTE) it didn't have the "enable wireless display" option for screen casting m. I've search a long time, and finally found out about that annoying manner motorola has. The solution was to modify one or two line in the build.prop file.
Hope you'll find out one day
