gt-p5113 ... need voice enabled? want to use the ring central app.... the tablet is rooted (first ever) with cf auto root espresso... and philz touch... have 4.1.1... play store say device not compatiple because its not voice enabled...... but it has speakers and mic.... but its not a phone... i will only we using it on wifi, so what do i care if its not 3g or voice enabled...
well my question: anyone know how to make it work, or get it "voice enable", maybe a specific rom, or some download?

Google Voice? What app exactly do you need that you can't get?
Sent from my GT-P5113 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

already mentioned - ring central app.... Google voice is not doing it... its not to make calls on its own. but through the RC app.... google play and/or ring central app is not detecting my tablet as a voice enabled device... ring central is a voip service and offers phsical devices, softphone app (PC), and an app for smartphones. I want to use my tablet that I purchased exclusively for store backend use.
need to trick software into think its voice enabled (asuming that the app needs to be on a device that supports normal voice features (like an actual cell phone) or like a tablet connected to cell network)
sorry for late reply, while this is a priority, it is one of many -_-.. thanks everyone

[REQ] Modify Skype Mobile for Verizon to work on any other Android phone

Hello,
is it in any way possible to do that? When I install the .apk file, it always "Skype mobile is only for Verizon Wireless user". Does any developer know how to avoid this?
link for the .apk file: http://www.sendspace.com/file/rnwab1
peace
If I understand how the app works correctly, it doesn't use VOIP for the calls but instead just dials an internal Verizon number. Since the app isn't really doing Skype over the data network, it wouldn't work on other networks even if you did manage to install it.
We are going to have to hope that Skype get their act together and release a real VOIP client like the iPhone one at some point
really?
i checked engadget says that it uses data only~
no actually dailing using the air minutes
For me its saying "Skype mobile can only be used on Verzion Wireless Phones."
may be it makes some check in verzion IMEI Database, or just digg out the carrier info on the phone - where market enabler make changes to see paid apps in countries where isn't available
if market enabler can help , let someone check out the info from verzion and enter it on market enabler to see what will happen
The app called "fring" can make Skype calls over 3G.
Nimbuzz is also in market. nimbuzz can make voip calls through 3g and skype as well.
sound quality is really better when you use WiFi.
Does this version of Skype Mobile properly handle group chat?
This is like the sprint apps that would only work on the sprint network(AKA Sprint Hero), people got them to work on other phones by spoffing the phone and what ever other things they did

anti theft apps

if any one tried an anti theft app and works good with him at ics please tell us about it
cause i tried androidlost and it is a great app but it cant open gps nor wifi and sms actions doesnt work !! and it cant track my tab and tried avast and it is less functional so i need an app that i can completely control the tab remotly by internet or by sms !!! and i tried some other apps but no big deal
im using aokp build 40
btw i want a free app cause i cant buy any apps since im in egypt and these service isnt allowed here
is there any possible way to open gps remotly by any app ? or even the app use mobile data to get my location cause it is a must for me
Hello, not quite sure if this will help, but you could leave this app running.
Google Latitude location-sharing app.
Might not be secure, but you can look it up and decide for your self, came with my tab pre-installed.
Search in Google Play....
I had once seen an app which runs on sms things...If u send one sms to the phone you have lost then the alarm gets activated....You can do much more with that....Don't remember which one it was but the reviews were good
already i have an app called androidlost ... awesome app but there are 2 essential feature didnt work for me " enabling gps and wifi - some sms commands " so i want any one running aokp build 40 to try the app it is free and tel me what happend
There are actually plenty of such apps available in the market but the good ones will cost money. Just look up for phone locator. I have phone locator pro and that works like a charm.

Best App for Tracking Lost Phone

Hi all,
Can someone suggest the best app for locating a lost android phone?

Thanks for any suggestions..

Almost all antivirus companies have device tracking enabled through web.if you configured and recalled the data.you can track the location of phone and can remote swipe/sms and many more.I have tested that using kaspersky and NOD32 and webroot.this is the only chance to track else after stolen people throw away SIM,format the phone or change the IMEI so impossible to track back.
I'm using avast! (Free) It has quite an extensive lost/stolen system built into it aswell as all the antivirus stuff. One thing I like about avast! (Not sure who else has this) it has a setting called 'Geo fencing'. Once set, if your phone leaves a, user set, distance from your current point, it automatically locks your phone and triggers any other protection activities, and sends a SMS to a pre-set cell number. Good for night clubs or busy shopping malls incase you get pick pocketed.

Avast! is pretty good when it comes to tracking.
Thanks for suggestions. Don't necessarily wanna install an anti virus on the phone.. Find they slow it down ( I know some people may disagree, but that's not the topic)

Android now has a built in phone locator which can be activated in Settings > Security > Device administrators. Check Android Device Manager.
Uses Google's push service so it doesnt poll battery.
Link to web interface: https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager
In addition, I use AndroidLost from Play Store. Runs through Google servers so no background usage. Has an advanced plethora of controls on the web interface. Check it out.
Google Device Manager
I have enjoyed using Google Device Manager. It has the ability to ring my phone for 5 mintues so I can find it easier. As well as the ability to locate it. Although like everything else depends on data connection. So if I lost in a park with a dead battery... NO DICE.

AndroidLost supports SMS controls. You could send an SMS message to activate GPS and auto reply the location, or you could send a message to enable WiFi/data and track that way.

agreed, i use android device manager. used to use the samsung version, but now that google offers it then i'll use that one.
I used to use Avast, but now I can just use Google's Device Manager or even CyanogenMod's which is crude for now.
Device manager seems to work well. It allows you to locate the device from another browser using Google maps, allows yo to ring the phone even if it's on vibrate or silent and once set up allows you too lock/erase all data from it.

cerberus is the best option for little money ( 3 € ) can have about 5 devices, and allows for many things, what I'm wearing and not disappointed.
Check out "Wheres my droid" from the play store. It is full of great features. Can set up triggers from text or phone numbers to make it ring. You can get is location from sending a specific text to your phone. You can lock it down,take a pic and even wipe it clean. Great app

Actually, this is a really important point. Which of these apps are still able to perform their advertized functions after it is being lost? Supposedly, whoever is in possession of the phone will through out SIM card and do a factory reset so all apps that use google services will not work anymore as they are Signed out... Are apps from antivirus suites immune to this?

Tizen companion app for Google now / Google assistant

While we all know Google will unfortunate never release a tizen app for Google assistant... for those of us who use the watch tethered to an android phone (most of us) surely someone can come up with a companion app that if nothing else served as a bluetooth conduit to the phone so that we can issue voice commands through the watch's microphone and get responses over the watch speaker?
Sent from my STV100-1 using Tapatalk
I've also wondered if this is possible. I'd like voice commands to control my home automation on my watch via GA.
there is a way to call google now search programmatically as described here (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...mmatically-initiate-a-google-now-voice-search)
Besides that, the Gear API lets do STT (speech to text) https://developer.tizen.org/develop...ive-application/uix/stt?langredirect=1#create
So, I´m thinking the posibility to make an Gear App that catch the voice, and send it as text to an Android companion app.... then the andorid app coud pass the text query to google now and return the results back to Gear in text or formatted html
If you want voice responses, TTS API in Gear can do the job.
It´s just an idea, I´m so begginer right now to figure if it´s possible to do with success.

I have this in my plans, but due to lack of free time - i have absolutely no clue when i can finish this. But if somebody will not make this faster - i will try to bring at least basic functionality. But no promises as for now.

This would work. One downside is you're still using Samsung's voice recognition to determine what you initially said. Another option would be Google's cloud speech API to get native Google recognition on the gear - but it's not free on a large scale.
Google assistant sdk is out. Anyone trying to create an app ?

It costs the developer that much. It's free for the users. Let's say I make an app with cloud speech, first I would associate my Google dev account with the cloud API, then add it to my application. Now every time someone uses my app to access the API, my account is charged at the .006/15 seconds rate (after free first 60 min/month).
As you can imagine, with thousands of people using the application costs can get pretty high. These costs are usually offset by advertising or subscriptions.
This would be fab...look forward to seeing what the Devs are able to do in time.

I am a UX designer. I gladly help with any design if you need.
too bad it won't happen Samsung always tries too hard and unfortunately dropped the ball when it comes to smart watches instead of using Android Wear with oem skin on top they completely came up with their own ui and code apparently making it impossible to use the apps already on Android Wear market
how can we record voice on the Gear and send it to a companion app ?
if this is possible, I have an idea to process it on the Android side.
Companion App ready for release
I can't use a smartwatch without Google integration, I find them useless without an assistant. I've therefore spent a lot of time and money trying to get the Gear to interact with Google, and finally it's paid off.
My team have just put the finishing touches on our Gear Assistant Bridge and have it in testing now, hopefully it'll be up in the stores within the month. We're waiting on a small bit of code from one of our Dev's regarding a minor assistant reply and that's it!
This tizen native companion app lets you interact with Google Assistant on your Samsung Gear; it also provides interactive results formatted for the gear screen. Future updates will unlock additional features already mostly coded and ensure stability.
Finally, our team has also been working on a Tizen native (standalone) port of the Google Assistant. We anticipate this to be available shortly after the GA for Devices SDK goes live.

I'm not sure what you're trying to get at as there isn't much information in your question, but I will try to help where I can.
If I assume you simply want to REPLACE the default phone dialer, I have a Samsung where I NEVER use the default Google apps and it works just fine WITHOUT those Google apps (I've disabled most of them).
As for the phone app, it gets confusing what people "mean" as things changed since Android 10 in terms of separation of the parts that people often mix together.
Specifically, in later Androids, AFAIK, there is a "Dialer" and a separate "Contacts" app (yet which often are combined) and there is even the concept that the "SMS/MMS" messaging app also can often dial out and use the contacts - but there is no longer a default "Dialer" as of Android 10 (AFAIK).
Me?
I don't keep a contacts file (for privacy reasons) in the default sqlite location (because Google/Facebook/Microsoft/etc. motherships upload that database, that's why!) so I use only {dialer,contacts,sms/mms} apps which can work both with and WITHOUT a default contacts sqlite database).
Note that Simple Mobile Tools has a lot of related privacy-aware free useful apps which don't necessarily need the default sqlite contacts database, which is a boon to your privacy (if you care about such things).
Here is a screenshot of what I use in my dock for phone apps on my Samsung, none of which are the default apps by Samsung or Google.
Thank you for your reply. I am actually looking for a way to record phone calls on phone. Phone by Google is the app I was referring to, as you may know it has a call recorder and I was wondering if anyone were able to enable it on their A32 5G.
There's a lot of information about call recording for this phone in this Galaxy A32 5G thread over here...
Anyone know a working call recorder app for this phone?​
There's also a generic thread about call recording issues after May 11th when Google made their most recent changes over here...
Is there any way to get 3rd-party call recording (ACR) apps working after tomorrow, May 11th, 2022?​
If you're rooted, you probably have more options though.
