Thanks for this!

I just made some minor adjustments including adding a few new language filters. Currently here is the breakdown of languages:
English: 130,886 apps
Chinese: 2,099 apps
Japanese: 1,433 apps
Korean: 1,249 apps
French: 808 apps
Spanish: 800 apps
German: 708 apps
The language is determined by running a language detection API against the app descriptions and titles. As far as I know this is the only app that lets you subscribe to apps by language.

After uninstalling this App i'm having major problems with my regular Market. All the new apps are gone. Not a single app that i recognize. All the Apps seem to be extremely outdated and are "test" apps. Anyone know whats going on here and possible fixes?

This is strange. The app doesn't touch any settings pertaining to the actual market app. It's completely self contained and accesses data only on the Hawkee severs.

confused on how to use this app?
I need some help understanding what this is, what it does, and how to use it.
Is it a second marketplace that is intended to replace the google marketplace?
If yes then I take it to mean that this app's intended use to to search, download, install, and maintain the apps on your phone?
Is this app intended to be used in conjunction with the google marketplace?
If yes then in what ways: searching, sorting, etc?
Is information shared between this app and the google marketplace? For exmaple if you can download apps from this app then do the downloaded apps also show up as being downloaded in the google marketplace?
The above are some of the questions I was thinking but if when replying you can think of other useful advice and info you want to share in how to use the app that would be appreciated.

I am confused as to how to use this app. Do I use this app instead of the marketplace to search and install apps? Do I install all my apps then install this app and it will learn the kinds of apps I like by scanning my download list from the marketplace?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes this can replace the market in terms of finding new apps. The point of this is to find good, new apps and closely monitor the market. It provides more advanced filters to find specifically what you want. It doesn't scan your apps and offer suggestions. That isn't the goal of this app.

Sorry, I missed the update to your post. The app actually sends you to the market when you choose an app, so yes the downloads count. This app only replaces the searching and browsing process. No data is shared between the two apps.

I just fixed a bug with the price drops not being detected properly. This was a server side fix so no need to update the app.
Sent from my Incredible

I was wondering if I could get some feedback on the name of this app. It's a different concept so I had a hard time coming up with a descriptive name. Some other ideas I had were Hawkee App Subscribe, Hawkee Market Subscribe, Hawkee App Monitor, or Hawkee Market Monitor.
Sent from my Incredible

Once i installed this app i cannot access the "downloads" section in my regular market. it either says theres no connection, or it force closes. Ive tried uninstalling Hawkee, wiping market data, uninstalling/reinstalling regular market, rebooting.....nothing is fixing this problem, which is obviously a major one

This seems to be unrelated. Did you recently upgrade your market app? This app doesn't have any connection with the market app. It only sends you there when you pick an app.
Sent from my Incredible

Nope my last market update was last week. i was browsing my downloads earlier today to check for application updates which i normally do.
i understand that you want to preserve the reputation of your app, and i can respect that. however it seems like a distinct possibility that this app caused this problem. earlier in this thread another poster claimed that this app had an effect on his market, as well.
this is not a personal attack, and there obviously is a chance that both of these incidences are coincidence. but it doesnt sound like it. you may want to look into it, since this app is now public on the forum, youd definitely rather have 2 complaints than several. just a little advice, it doesnt hurt to check, rather than simply sweeping it under the rug.
all i know and can say, aside from i love the idea of your app, ever since installing my market has been malfunctioning, even after a system install/uninstall.

TopShelf, Thanks for the response. I'm sorry to sound like I was so easily dismissing your problem, but I'm on my laptop now and can look into this more thoroughly. I researched the issue you described and came up with this thread:
http://www.google.fm/support/forum/p/Android+Market/thread?tid=5f475fcdfcc22233&hl=en
The conclusion seems to be that it's a problem on Google's end. People were pointing out a few apps that, when uninstalled, fixed the problem temporarily. But it seems there is no permanent fix yet. Some people suggested installing AppBrain in order to update your apps, but that's certainly not a long term solution.

[JB][ICS][GB][CM10/10.1]LBE privacy Master V4 - : How Safe Is Your Private Data?

Guys,
Android has an excellent array of security apps to protect you against threats of malware and viruses. But in my opinion, privacy issues are a far greater concern. Thanks for the user zagzag99 who translated it in English from Google Translator.
What permissions and elements of my phone are newly installed apps using? How safe is the private data I store on my phone? This was a gap in my knowledge that I wanted to fill – and LBE Privacy is a great tool for this job.
The app protects my privacy, and safeguards services that could cost me money if the wrong apps gained control of them. It does all this with a beautiful and intuitive interface.

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
LBE Privacy has a well-designed interface with a simple colour scheme of white and blue. At the forefront of the design is a welcoming main screen displaying the Internet, Privacy, Money, Applications and Settings options.
This great design found through the app makes using it easier and more intuitive – but more than that, it helped me, psychologically, to trust it; the fact they’ve thought out the design makes me feel more comfortable with the app, and lets me assume that the code behind the scenes is also well-designed.
LBE Privacy Guard’s/master privacy offerings were the main draw for me; while the ROM I run (Cyanogenmod) already allows me to decide what permissions to grant apps, it’s nowhere near as powerful or easy to use as LBE Privacy Guard/Master.
This app lets you restrict access to SMS, Contacts, Call Logs, Positioning, and your Phone ID. By default, when an app on your phone attempts to use one of the previously mentioned permissions on your phone LBE Privacy Guard/Master will ask you whether to allow it or not.
For those of you interested, there is also an events log showing the history of requests by all the apps on your phone.
Money​
This function of LBE Privacy Guard/Master protects your pocket! It blocks apps from accessing permissions that could cost you money: SMS and the ability to make phone calls. This section also appears in the aforementioned event log.
By default, all non-system apps are set to prompt you when requesting access to such features. Although this wasn’t a feature I was looking out for, I feel now that its quite an important one and something I should have wanted much earlier.
Application Monitoring​
The section allows you to browse each app on your phone and change the permissions each app has access to. I’ll run through the options for Angry Birds which you can see in the screenshot. The first option, Trust. allows you to automatically allow the app access to everything: SMS, Contacts, Call Logs, Positioning and your Phone ID. It’s also possible to adjust access to these items separately; for instance, to help ensure I don’t go over my download limit I’ve denied a lot of apps access to my Data.
Internet:​
The Internet section of LBE Privacy Guard isn’t really related to privacy, apart from giving you the ability to restrict certain apps from accessing the net. You’ll see a graph showing how much data you’ve used from your plan, as well as your Wi-Fi usage. Once you set a limit for your data plan, LBE Privacy Guard will alert you if you cross 90% of your allocated amount.
The options included are pretty useful: you’re able to set the billing day for the month so the app keeps prefect track of the amount of data you have left on your plan for the billing month, not the actual month! For those of you just installing the app now, there’s also the option to adjust monthly data usage so LBE Privacy Guard is on track from day one.
Settings Available​
The settings area allows you to toggle the different features I’ve already gone through. It’s also possible to turn off notifications – though I find this pretty useful as it shows how much of my data plan I’ve used – and to stop the app starting on boot-up, though in my opinion that’s not something you should do without thinking about first; this app needs to be running all the time to ensure it’s protecting your privacy.
Conclusion
LBE Privacy Guard/Master keeps impressing me the more I use it. Not only has it excelled at guarding my privacy (as its name would suggest), it’s also helped me cut down on my data usage. Thanks to this, I’ll be able to get a cheaper contract in January when my contract needs renewing – so the app has saved me money!
Regarding privacy: be sure to spend a few minutes going through the settings, both overall and for each app, as this is what will make this app so powerful and easy to use. There are many features on offer, so if you’re not interested in some please don’t decide against using this great app – just turn them off. LBE Privacy Guard will keep your data safe.

[APP] Whatsapp Not Last Seen

Hi all today I present you with NOT LAST SEEN for Whatsapp
In no way did I develop or create this app I am simply Just Sharing with you guys.
At last, you can hide the Whatsapp "Last seen" message! You will be able to use Whatsapp at any time and anyone will know it!
Thanks to this application no one will be able to see the last time you have used Whatsapp. However... You will be able to see your friends "Last seen"!
Enter to whatsapp as usually, block process is automatic. you don't have to enter to any application to block your last seen.
Important: While you are in Whatsapp you don’t received messages and you can write them but they won’t be send. When you leave Whatsapp or turn off the screen, your written messages will be send and your pending ones will be received.
The changes done to config Mobile Data are only notified when done from Android default menu.
Please use Android default menu to turn on/off Mobile Data(Settings->Data usage) while "Last Seen" are blocking, don't use widget or shortcut.
How does it work? When you are in whatsapp, automatically, your network is disabled to block "last seen" notification. Once out of Whatsapp(or turn off screen), automatically, your network is restored to the previous state.
You can see your friends "Last seen" while this application is enabled, just open the conversation of your friend, press home button, wait for some seconds and open whatsapp again!
No ROOT needed.

Apologies for that. Didn't mean to jump out and lash out like that. Am enjoying your app. The UI is well made. Kudos!

Wouldn't a link to your app in the topic be better advertising for it? Instead of just telling people to search it themselves? I don't understand why these people that post apps here don't have the courtesy to link the apps they're talking about. It's counterproductive.
Here's a way for you (and anyone else that posts apps here.):
Add a link, yo. (As in [/ url] link. Not a blasted paste of the url without making it clickable.) You went through all the trouble to write up that crap, put at least two more seconds and link your goddamned app. Thank you.

You have done great with this app and are doing great already by me - the link is clickable to app's Googlyville ... seems ok to me. Besides he who wants can also DL the apk via evozi.
Fantastic uninstaller app. I have tried many but this is the best - simple, straight to business; a recycle bin, like Dumpster for apps? Genius! And free? That's generous!
No trying here, this is a keeper, it's staying put. Thank you! Great job.

You app and apps data can be fully cleared after you tap DELETE in Recycle Bin.
For now they will only be cleared on device memory.
But good news is that the update for removes from SD card is soon coming.
Stay tuned with our updates!

For apps that get installed on SDcard their data folders are normally created on device unless one has implemented a move them to SDcard. So maybe moving the app back to device from SDcard, then uninstalling should achieve the same results?
To make this app even more awesome can you consider these features:-
-an apk manager that will 1-backup apks, & an option to choose a back up location, & 2-directly share apk file via BT, etc.
-a move to SD card-that will either accommodate moving data and/or a choice to include data being moved.
-Move to phone of course
Looking forward to the update.

Looks userfriendly and works good

The new update - startup control - is great!

Hey, thanks for your good tips.
As I know, the location of data folder depends on the download manager you are using or how you set up the storage path.
A single app like App Memory SD Card Transfer may be needed to implement what you said above.
A lot of improvements are scheduled. We’ll include the Transfer function in the future.
FYI, We’ll have a big update for Version1.4!

[GUIDE] VIVO NEX S/A Apps Safe To Uninstall/Disable Without Root

The subject of app/bloatware removal/disabling has been mentioned in a few threads throughout the NEX forum,but,not much to mention as far as advancing the discussion,so,I thought I'd start a thread to centralize the topic.
As w/any mods go,this is one that's fairly harmless,worse case scenario,a factory reset will get you back on track,but,ultimately everyone is responsible for their own phone & what happens to it.
With that out of the way..............
1) Any app that can be easily uninstalled by the "uninstall" button is 100% safe,no harm whatsoever. If you want,d/l an apk extractor tool app to make a copy & store wherever,should you change your mind.
2) Now,most are interested in getting rid of as many of the VIVO system apps as possible w/o crippling wanted functionality. This will be an evolving list,& gradually adding to it,with input from anyone interested,I'll update the list right here.
3) OK,the How-To is right here: https://www.xda-developers.com/uninstall-carrier-oem-bloatware-without-root-access/
4) Now here's what I have so far (see below,I'll edit/add as needed)
Any input regarding adding to the list is encouraged,please only suggest bloatware that you have actually uninstalled yourself & please include any effects on functionality that may have resulted,especially if it affected other apps & their functionality. (question marks below [??/etc...] are in place of Chinese letters/characters)
5) Once again,tried & tested input is highly encouraged & welcome. The list will grow & evolve/be edited on a continuous basis until we all get it figured out. :good:
******** A factory reset will restore all uninstalled apps
******** OTA's shouldn't be affected or affect the status of apps,whether they're installed or uninstalled (unless,of course,you've deleted something pertaining to updates,which won't be listed below)
******** The dates reflect the time of posting/removal,for ease of troubleshooting,in the event something noteworthy gets broken,it gives a good reference where to begin looking for the problem/solution.

Really great job and nice effort that all of Vivo Nex user should participate and share the knowledge and experience of uninstalling Chinese bloatware and optimize and maximize total experience when using their smartphone.
One thing is sure will never get bored as Funtouch OS has unlimited potential of uninstalling bloatware all over the UI

Updated OP with Dates of Removal, to facilitate troubleshooting in the event something of consequence gets broken.

I'm using the latest Windows 10 build where command prompt is replaced with Powershell. Have tried various options on the internet to revert back to command prompt (including going to Settings > Personalization > Taskbar and disable the option to use Powershell), but still stuck with Powershell. Any other workarounds ?

Nothing really jumps out from the list in the OP.
1) Are you able to use the nav buttons & get to recents/multi-tasking?
2) Did you uninstall anything that's not on the current list in the OP?

Many thanks for this great thread!
I have received my NEX today and right now am uninstalling stuff. If I get any new to be removed safely I will post here!
Best greetings from Austria!

Thanks for the reply. I made sure that I only uninstalled items that were indicated safe in your post and some from the post by WhySoSeriousJoKer. I certainly have not uninstalled 'com.vivo.upslide' which was flagged as disabling navigation gestures.
All the other gestures work fine, it's only the swipe up from the middle to bring up the open apps !

Yeah, I wouldn't have uninstalled that one either.
For troubleshooting purposes, can you try out using the navigation buttons, see if you can access recents/multitasking?
Also, which software version were/are you on when you lost the multitasking function?
It probably doesn't matter, but, any information for troubleshooting purposes is always a good thing...

Here's the choices of sharing that pop-up,with the apps removed (on 7/7/18) :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

EDIT: @Saloei
As for if the default can be selected before the VIVO Browser is removed,I don't know,TBH,this is the 1st time I've ever used Location Sharing,LOL.

Can you send yourself a Location Sharing link selecting MESSENGER and then add your phone number as the receiver to see if it'll work with no VIVO BROWSER app installed?

If you're speaking about Facebook Messenger, I don't use Facebook, but I was able to share the link with Textra, my default messaging app. I shared it to myself on the same phone, using both SIM Cards & using the same SIM Card as sender & receiver.
Also sent my location to another phone I have via Textra with no problem whatsoever.
Perhaps someone here who has already deleted the VIVO Browser & uses Facebook can verify it'll work.
My guess is that it will, but, I can understand if you're hesitant, most don't want to have to start over via factory reset if, in the unlikelyhood, it doesn't work.....
