Go to Google Settings app - > Security - > Check Allow remote lock and erase and also check remotely locate device

I'm on CM12. It seems the options have been shifted away from security?

These options are in GOOGLE settings, Did you have both the latest version of google plat services and android devicemanager installed
There should be a different app in your menu called google settings. Not the normal settings app.

Nopes. They are available in the same place
Everything is under security option under that app. Only that app can solve your issue.

You mean it won't work without the app? I have already enabled all the options stated by you.

That might be enough, but to he sure just try it out. If it doesn't work then install the other app

Problem is , i manage to track another phone which also doesn't have android device manager installed. Why is that?

I've installed the app and it's still not working. I think the app is used to track other phones so it shouldn't matter if i have the app or not as long as my settings are enabled for location tracking.

I am sure as I am able to check in with foursquare. It will detect my position and tell me what restaurants are nearby.

I agree, although this would be more convenient if you have an apk file that isnt on the Market.
Or in some builds that don't have the market at all on the phones.

How do we distinguish the name of an apk already installed???? In your program, they are listed with numbers.

Thanks for the better link zshare can suck it. I'm not going to unblock their stupid ads.
AmaZING!!!
U guys are genius.Thanks for the app. this is perfection at its finest.
All i ask is that u can make a easy way to get into the android registry without using adb Shell. If this program could some how get into the android registry. Id really luv that.
so finally everyone who dosent know how to use the adb shell can still get into the file system and do the process to get apps to INSTALL & RUN FROM THE SD CARD.
i already have my sd card partioned and waiting. thats guys.
Amazing apps. i appreaciate the hard work.

*blink* this isn't WM. There is no registry. The closest thing might be some of the system databases.

He meant the link to download the file.
I uploaded it in my post
I'm not exactly sure running executables from unknown new users is a good idea... especially given that everything the program does can be easily done (probably even easier) in the console with adb install.

What ROM are you using, and what Google Play Services version do you have?
I'm on graviton with PA micro gapps ... Location off unless I'm actually navigating..... Never had any issues.
Tho.... I think with location off.... There is no issue. I could be wrong. But I haven't had it on any rom or gapps. Always with location off. And gnow off actually.
I change to Eng already. Here is the rom and google service version i'm using

Okay, that means it isn't trying to download the OTA
If autostarts didny work you'll have to use a wakelock blocker, or a permission manager to block android.permission.WAKE_LOCK on Google Play Services

Dalvik .vs. Art

Is there an increase in battery life when switching from dalvkin runtime to ART?
Also what's the correct process to switch? Do I have to run a backup or anything before switching?
No need to backup. Just go into developer options then change to ART.

Yeah art is better, better battery performance, and faster launch times. But expect a lot of app crashes because not many apps support art yet...

Thank you for your help! Think I will hold off until more apps support ART.
I've been using ART on CM for months now and not had any crashes / issues, it's entirely possible I i just haven't tried to use an application that doesn't like ART..
@arty93 you can always switch back to dalvik, so there's no harm in trying ART to see how it works for you.

Switched to ART about 6 months ago, never had an app crash because of it.
I'm getting this message when I want to switch? Does this happen regardless of what ROM you are on or is it just my ROM in particular?

Disney+ Hotstar for Android is an app you've to pay for ( USD 20 / year ) using it. You have tried to install a cracked version to bypass subscription fees. Cracked / modded versions of an app always can be treated as malicious, IMHO.

Question YouTube Music controls not showing on lock screen

Hi all,
for about 3 months now after upgrading to MIUI 14 I am missing the music controls on the lock screen. (Stop music/next song/back)
I did everything possible: turned on all notification and gave permissions for all to YouTube Music .
nothing solved my problem, I even sent youtube developers an email (still no response), I deleted the app and installed again, I tried installing the app from older APKs from different sources .
Anyone having this issue ? I am close to selling the device for this disability .

These roms have play store certified.
I've been using them for many years with no problems.
My banking application as well as the means of payment require double authorization, in particular my fingerprint and it works perfectly.
If you want to be certain register on the site and ask the specific question to your apps.
