Hello friends!
I need some ideas and help from your knowledge-full minds if you don't mind sharing some
My first one its a problem and it sounds like this:
I really need to see where this popup is located so I can disable it because its getting anoying. Everytime I send some big sms messages and I pass a number of sent mesagges/hour, this system popup appears and I have to dismiss it for every sms message.
{
"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",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Translation: SMS Bomber (the app i used to simulate my daily use of sms messages) sends a big number of sms messages. Do you allow this app to send messages?
And the radio buttons are "deny" and "allow"
I used every popup blocker/finder and i can't seem to find it. I manualy searched for it in system files, I took almost every .xml file one by one and searched for a clue but i can't seem to find it at all. I made a logcat but i can't seem to understand what that big amount of data is telling me. Does anyone have a clue about this kind of system popup and how to disable it?
EDIT: i found out what's causing it, and that is the 100 sms limit generic on any android smartphone, but in my smartphone its ducking 20 msg/hour. I tried all the ways, with 3-party apps, sql editor and manual adding but it still shows up. Any ideas?
EDIT 2: I fixed it. Looks like that on 4.2 you have to add the entry in the global db
The second one its not a problem, i just need some advice. I want to customize my stock rom to the max (there isn't a custom rom for my smartphone and I want to make it just like Android 5.0 with only root acces and stock recovery/rom) and i managed to modify the status bar with exposed, I took a launcher that was just like lolipop, i modified the ppi, I tweaked the guI with some xposed plugins but that is not enought because my popups, power menu and settings menu are the same. I read something about framework res but i am not sure about it and what does it do. Do you have any info that can help me? Maybe i will publish the rom for my smartphone after I tweak it a little bit if i manage to do it well.
The third one is a problem that bothers me from when i bought the phone. Whenever i plug in my smartphone a usb cable, my telephony signal dies. I can't receive/send any calls or sms messages in that time. What could it be?
The forth and the last one is about a thing that I want on my phone and i can't seem to find nothing. I want to wake/unlock my phone without using the power button (i have a 5" smartphone and the power button is located in the upper side) with a double tap or a gesture. I heard that i need kernel-level permisions and that i need a super-amoled or amoled screen (because of the black pixels that don't light up when they are black) but nexus 4 has "Touch control" app that lets it do the knock wake but it has IPS display like mine so i guess it is possible. Any ideas?
EDIT: managed to use Tap Tap App and it's ok
Sorry for the long post, here is the cat-tax and the potato-tax
And sorry for my english, it's not my first language

I've been using a power usage app designed for the N1 called "PowerTutor" for the past week or so (app link, homepage link).
Ever since I've started using it, I've noticed that two apps are constantly using tons and tons of battery, despite me never using them: Contacts and Messaging. Notice in the screenshots below they have been running 100% of the time since my last reboot and using the most battery, more than any of the apps that I actually use:
Left: Current Power Usage (As of this second).
Right: Total Power Usage (Since reboot).
{
"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",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
These apps never go away. Now, I understand how Android task management works, so the fact that they are running isn't the problem; but the fact that they are using battery constantly seems to be a huge issue, since A) I never use them and yet B) together they have by far the highest power consumption apps on my phone. What the heck??
What is going on here? Does anyone else use PowerTutor?
Interesting find...
Seems like no one dares to comment on this...now I´m curious.
The app must be messaging your contacts in the background...
Or maybe this app drafts a message to one of your contact, then discards it and then drafts the same message to another contact and again discards it and so on....
The tutor in the name suggests that it wants to teach you a lesson... Don't install random apps on your phone and them give it permission to use whatever resources that it wants...
If you using CM ROM so maybe you lock messaging in the memory (CM setting > performance )
I messaged the developer and he responded with this:
It may be related to a bug (it's more of a limitation of the Android API) in PowerTutor. In reality Android gives no way to know what application is currently in the foreground so we have to estimate it using some information they do give us on the priority of each application. Unfortunately the phones I have work with don't have this problem so it's difficult for me to debug. The problem is related to the Messaging and Contacts applications having foreground priority despite not actually being in the foreground.
Try simply filtering out OLED (click on the OLED panel in the application view) to get more meaningful numbers for now.

Interesting...
My question then is, if we were to filter out OLED, wouldn't that mean we'd be missing out on some data (data that is actually valid)?
Though I'm not sure I understand what it means to have an app listed in multiple categories? And what that will do when one category is filtered out.

Hey Sandy, I have a couple suggestions for ya.
First one is a bug. This is sorta hard to explain. Whenever I click intermediate or developer tab, I am redirected to the first tab (which is supposed to happen, Yes I Know That's SUPPOSED to happen) and then I click back, I am taken back to the intermediate or developer tab (which should not happen, what is supposed to happen is that I exit the app). It looks like this.
I click developer...
{
"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",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then redirected (no picture)...
Then I click back.... And am in developer... (it says intermediate because I took the wrong screen shot)
Another bug is the zoom in and out control button placement. They don't work at all because of the ads (when I press zoom in or out, the ad is clicked instead). But to me they are ugly anyway and I would just take them out (if possible) because they make the app feel like a Web View of the thread, and not native (same for the next suggestion I have, in the context of the app feeling native).
That's it for the bugs, though. Thirdly, personal preference, can you make it so that when I click on "Link to Thread" (or any link at all) that the orange box doesn't surround the link.
One tutorial I hope you add is the "V6 Super Charger" thread.
And that's all I've got, like the app a lot, and there is like so many tutorials on xda that I have subscribed to (even though I don't wanna subscribe) just so I can remember what they are called when needed, and for quick access to, but this app could potentially solve the problem of them taking up space in my subscribed topics and what not.
EDIT: How did I forget this one... Can you add an app icon please? An app without an icon stands out like a sore thumb in the app drawer. (or maybe that is the icon, and is that for a reason). An app icon that came to mind when reading about it was the icon for Cydia tweaks that don't have special icons (the screw driver one).

Is any one else having problems picking a notification tone with Twitter? Every time I pick one it just goes back to default. Thank you for any help.
Yes I posted the same problems.. and now I'm getting no notifications
Download fenix instead or the new twitter from www.apkmirror.com

the latest APK does the same - reverts back to the default. One option my wife thought of was to change the default to silent and then change the notifications in the other apps.
There are many other apps but none will push the notifications outside of the app for the tweets of people you request because of the Twitter API.

I have the same problem. The button to save the notification sound setting is missing (and exiting the page doesn't automatically save the change).
any resolution on this subject?
No there's been a few updates but no fix for this on the s6. I reported it to twitter but I suppose it's not a very big issue really
Still not seeing any resolution on the latest build 5.69.0
Same issue on the note 5
Here we are 6 months down the line and they still haven't fixed it.
Set "default notification sound" in phone settings to the one you want for Twitter then change notification for messages to the one you want for SMS msgs.
Sent from my SM-G920F
The problem is there is no OK button on the notification sound dialog box on the GS6/Note 5.
My wife has a Note 4 and the same Twitter app version has an OK button which successfully changes the tone.
My Note 5 doesn't have an OK buton. Backing out is the same as the cancel button.
Note 5:

Note 4:
Same problem on the Samsung S7. This is really annoying. Please somebody fix this problem
Agreed. Seems like both a minor issue, and because it has lingered for so long, a very annoying one.
Even the Default/Messages setting workaround upthread is a no go for me, because there are apps (i.e. my local news app that send breaking news alerts) that give the Twitter sound with that setup.
Seems this should have been fixed a long time ago.

Download es file Explorer. Remove the app defaults for twitter/media storage. Open twitter and go to notifications. When it pops up the app to use choose es file Explorer and browse to ur customer notification. Works for me on s7
First and formost!! Credit goes to face and any other person who discovered this!! I'm just placing it here so people know it works for the note 5 and for people to lazy to look with the search function!!
What this does: If you hate when your phone screen turns on when receiving a text, this will make so your phone screen stays off!
ROOT REQUIRED!!!
Step 1~ Use ROOT browser or any other type of ROOT file Explorer, head to Data/Data/Com.android.mms.

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 2~ Go into the folder called "Shared_prefs"
Step 3~ Go into "com.android.mms_preferences.xml" be sure to open it in a text editor!!
Step 4~ scroll down until you see this "" now that you found it change the true to false! Save your edit and if your file Explorer creates a back up with an ext. At the end like .BAK be sure to delete it or move it else where as your phone will revert all changes upon reboot if you do not!!!
FINALLY~ I AM NOT Responsible for any problems you may cause to your phone be careful not to delete extra text or any thing of the sort as it could potentially cause problems!! Enjoy your extra little bit of battery being saved by text notifications not turning your display on !!
Or just use textra...
I own textra and honestly dont like it and for whatever the reason prefer the stock messenger in this case over Messenger or Textra. So this tutorial is quite helpful if I was rooting this phone. Quite sure people know that using another messaging app will stop your phone from turning on with notifications.
Thx OP :good:

This is off topic, and sorry in advance. Is there any way to make the stock app like textra while receiving a text? I.e only shows the name is the sender and not the text itself.

That's similar to what I'm looking for, however it doesn't tell me who sent a message it just says new message.
From note 3 to note 5, they removed the sms reminder function from the settings. This same file can be used to add that back. I changed two values from 1 to 10 with great success. Pref_key_msg_reminder_alert Values in both string and boolean name.
So I used as app control to debloat my s23 plus. Everything works good no issues except for one I just found this morning
So I need help figuring this out. I think I might have removed something that works with camera pics and text aka: an app that is associated with camera.
I remember at one time in my rooting days if you deleted a file (I forget which one it was off hand) but if you deleted that app the camera stoped working.
This seems to be a similar thing.
When I highlight text on a picture I took, I go to the 3 dots and click save to clipboard, so I can paste it in a text file. Problem I'm having is paste doesn't work at all, it's like there is nothing saved to clipboard even though it says "saved to clipboard"
Again, my guess is it's an app associated with the camera app, and I deleted it and this is the adverse reaction to removing said app.
So anyone have any ideas what app would be attached to the camera app, aside from gallery of course. I'm at a loss as to what it can be.
You probably did more damage than just this.
There hundreds of small Samsung system apps that modify the UI for appearance... and functionality. Most use little resources and should be left alone. Target the power hogs and complete trashware like Digital Wellbeing.
A list of the disabled items would be helpful.

Well maybe I'm confused.
I've restored everything back except samsung browser. Don't ask, I'm just not a fan of it.
That given this is what I'm doing or trying to do:
I'm openin samsung gallery. I go to the picture I took. I hit the T with the box around it which is text. I hit the 3 dots at the bottom and click on copy to clipboard. When I go to my notes app and hit paste, nothing comes up. Is it possible that the text copy from pics feature is limited to only samsung apps, and not other apps? I'm lost as hell right now.
Ok I'm an old idiot LOL.......I simply highlighted the text and copied and pasted it, it works fine.
So i'm curious, what does the T with a square around it at the bottom right do exactly? I thought that was like covert to text
The Samsung browser with some add on ad blockers is great for vids.
Try clearing the system cache.
Use the Samsung Edge app for copy/paste.

I'm guessing bixby vision. Give the list of apps you've uninstalled so we can help you better.
Do you mean Smart Select with the spen?
That's this app. If disable it disappears from the spen menu. Verified on my N10+/Pie.
