On my Jailbroken iPhone I was able to download an app that took a picture with the front camera and sent it to the email of my choice every time the wrong password was entered to unlock the phone, the photo came along with the GPS location of the phone and time.
Is there anything like this available for us

Cerberus is the most popular anti-theft app for android. It should have the feature you mentioned.

On my Android phone there is no prompt for password before buying a paid app. I would like to be prompted for password before buying paid apps from Market.
This feature is present with iPhones.
I tried google and and forums - could not find a solution.
My friend's 4 year old bought 2 apps when he was given the phone to play for sometime and I noticed after 30 mins only (15 minutes is the cancellation time frame).
I am on Froyo & have an HTC Desire
Try app lock by creative core on the market. Then he could put a password on the market and any other app he doesn't want the kid getting into. Its free and ad supported but u can get a key to remove ads in market.

Probably the only complaint I have about my new phone is the lack of a 100% working Facebook experience.
The Facebook app seems to periodically just stop updating/issuing notifications for periods at a time.
TweetDeck works for awhile but then suddenly loses my settings.
Seemic doesn't automatically update/issue notifications at all plus I don't like the fact that the updates from multiple services aren't integrated in one stream like Tweetdeck does.
Not sure what other options I have at this point.
Mine seems to work fine

One of the things that worked super well for me on my old phone was "fim" but sadly, I dont think that its available for android, just winmo. Hopefully the devs decide to port it
If you go Settings->Account and Sync, is background data/auto-sync turned on?
also down where it says "Manage Accounts" make sure it's turned on also.
Yea dude mine us working fine. Check your settings?

yup and yup.
I actually have two facebook items listed here.. the first seems to be for that social updates its called Facebook SocialUpdates when I go in to its details. I have that turned off. When its turned on it generates session expired errors and when I gave it my login it won't accept the password (I've verified the pw is correct).
The other just says Facebook in its details and that is on.
edit: maybe there's another app its conflicting with... frustrating.

Are you running stock? If you're rooted, what I would try is making a back up of your apps using Titanium Backup and then uninstalling all your social networking apps that could be conflicting with it and then reinstall only facebook from the market and see if that helps. Again, that's just what I would try. Good luck
I'm running stock, but I think I'll take your advice anyway and uninstall all the social network apps... can't hurt.
I would have to agree with you, DarienA, of all three OS's, facebook for android is the worst. I mostly speak about the options available in this app version. I am a little biased as my previous phone had FB 2.0 and it was very nice, plus the push notifications were almost instant. Just my two cents on facebook for android.

I would have to disagree. The fb app for iPhone is awful.

Besides the App needing the ability to delete comments, seeing all who like something and built in video uploads, I've not had issues with it.

How do you remove comments?
It'd be nice to be able to tag photos. I don't think you can do that with the iphone FB app either though.

Yeah you can. The app just never functioned for me properly on my iPhone. Never got my notifications, comments wouldn't load...I'm having much better experiences with the android app.

Well upon further investigation, you can only remove posts or comments that originated from the app...at least that's what I've seen so far.

Hi !
It's kinda difficult for me to explain but it's fairly simple:
I have 2 android phones:
1. Phone "A" with number I use all day and carry it with me.
2. Phone "B" with number I use rarely and usually it stands on the shelf all day long.
I receieve calls, SMS and other things on phone "B" occasionally. Sometimes entire day passes until I see that I have missed call, SMS or other notification.
Is there an app that would notify me on phone "A" that I have some activity on phone "B" ?
Thanks in advance ! :good:
Im looking for a same aplication too for android. Can anyone give us a clue??

You can always find some sort of call forwarding app/SMS forwarding app that should be able to address your needs.

Let's hope it happens.
Anyone have a clue why when someone sends me or my wife a text via GV, we get texts on both phones ? I looked everywhere and I cant figure out why this is happening. We exchanged phones recently and I completely removed all accounts from both phones and uninstalled GV....in fact Nexus 5 was wiped as well.
edit: we exchanged phones NOT sim cards
may be it has something to do with the hangouts application. Just a wild guess though

what do you mean desktop mode ? If you mean check Google Voice settings then I already did and no one touched them to begin with. They all look normal, my account ONLY has my number and her account ONLY has her number. It worked fine this past Saturday, then we haven't used GV, and after we switched phones I noticed this issue.

Yes he means Google Voice settings on the web (not in your phone):
https://www.google.com/voice/b/0#phones
When you switched phones, you should have changed your mobile phone registration at that site for each of your accounts.

We switched the hardware, sim cards stayed the same. So its not like I am using her number with my Google Voice account....I am using my sim card with my phone number with my google voice account
PS. calls work fine. Its the texts that go to both phones. If i send a text to her, she gets it and i get notification too, if someone else texts me, she also gets the text.
Check the devices under accounts and see if there's multiple accounts on one phone. You should be able to figure it out on a desktop in Google voice in settings and user accounts. Maybe its linked on a computer with multiple account

Thats the thing, I looked everywhere already. I just reset her Moto X and it seems to work from her phone but not from my N5. Also weird because I reset my N5 before I used it, I guess I have no other choice but to reset it again....what a pain in the ass at almost 11pm.....

Search if there is any application which record the phone activity (via changes) so that you can get the culprit.

If you are on Sprint, make sure you both don't have Google voice integration on their side.

Check if app has sms integerated in default sms app. Than check if the default messaging app is not GV. If not any problem here than its the account for sure. Both your and your wife's phone number got attached to whether your account or hers. Check her GV account settings too. Check which device has priority too.
Does anyone know what shift worker app is the best on the android market? I rely on these apps to plan my months and the one I used to use on my iPhone doesn't appear to be available. Any help would be really appreciated!!

I just bit the bullet and entered all my shifts into Google Calendar. My shift pattern repeats after 10 weeks, so although it took me a little while to get those first ten entered, the "repeat every xx...." function in Calendar means I never have to mess around with it again.
Also, having it in my calendar means that Google Now can give me reminders when to leave for work early if, for instance, the traffic is bad that day.
Plus, if I ever move away from Android (unlikely) then my Calendar can come with me, no issues - rather than facing the same problem which you have now.
To actually display my calendar I like Calendar Pad's widget. Also I have Calendar Status Pro in my notification shade, which is handy because I have a constant reminder of calendar appointments every time I pull down the shade.
I'm always interested in trying out new solutions if they can provide better functionality though, so I'd be interested to hear what other people use too
That's an idea I had already contemplated but my shifts change every 5 weeks. I used an app on the iPhone called 'Shift worker' made by a company called production shed. I've emailed them to see if they have the same app available for android but I highly doubt it! Shame a dev couldn't come up with something that we could really make great use of! All the apps I've saw just look mega complicated. Might need to resort to Google calendar though and integrate it with Google now.
