[Q] how to check privacy violations? - General Questions and Answers

Hi guys,
First of all sorry for my English lol
I know it's a strange question, I'll try to explain me better
I have a tablet provided by my company for my work as agebt/seller with all company stuffs, it has a normal Android original rom, ita a galaxy 10.1 gtn8000 with Android 4.1.2
Im allowed to use it for my personal use (they said go on youporn but not when u are working lol) but I'm forced by the company to use my private Gmail account to use playstore, so my mail are both on phone and tablet, they shouldn't watch at it because of privacy but I have many reasons to think they do it constantly, tablet has remote control enabled due to let theme install updates of working stuffs
Well how can I check what they do when access to my tablet? I googled so much but I only find ways to check if gf is cheating lol I need to see what they do on my device hehe
Any advice? Any program that records screen when I'm not using it (usually they do updates at night time
Thanks a lot to everyone

A little bump hoping in some ideas

[App] RemotifyMyDroid (my 3rd FREE app)

Hello Everyone,
i've finish working on my application RemotifyMyDroid, and uploaded it to the market place toy can download:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.yazan.remotifyMyDroid&feature=more_from_developer
it sends notifications to your PC, when you got event on your mobile,
best case when you are charging your mobile in a room, and setting in another..
however you can use it in different purposes ...
the phone and the PC should be on the same LAN,
in future i may upgrade it to work over the internet ...
it notifies for those events:
1- Incoming Call (shows the caller number to)
2- Outgoing Call (someone using your mobile to call a number)
3- Your mobile is fully charged (in case you were charging it)
4- Someone unplugged the power of the charger.
5- New Incoming SMS.
to download the PC server
http://www.yazandroid.com/
and go to RemotifyMyDroid (1st link) and it contains some screen shots to.
also have a look at my other FREE 2 applications there
your feedback is appreciated
Yazan.
Sounds great, but I think setting this up might be a tad harsh for general use (firewalls etc). I would suggest building an intermediary platform (web service) to communicate to. That way you can have a very easy setup. For instance, you can use the Google login service to identify yourself from the phone and the notification program and that's it then. No IP's or port numbers as most users don't know what that is anyway.
But for the techies, good start.
Cheers

No problem
Portal pending. Nice app
I will use this when it's possible to use it via the web. Maybe a Chrome/FireFox/IE plugin would be cool?
Really nice idea!
Another suggestion : an honeycomb client
let us be notified about our phone when it's away and we're using our favorite tablet

What a great find... The integration with Growl will be excellent on my HTPC. Also, this allows easy integration with EventGhost through Scripty.
just installed. works fine.
Any chance on a open source version, i would like to see how you did this. an maybe use some of the code in a Domotica project of mine.
Hey another MightyText. At least I can use this one lol.\

Have you ever heard of...dare I say it...variation of ideas? Just because there is something similar out there, does not mean it is identical. Please do not spam dev's threads with others work.
he's right though, there is google voice add on for chrome that does this, mighty text, and that last one he mentioned.

its not a waste of time, and for sure i have learned couple of things while developing this app, its not a waste at all.
otherwise you will see a single app for each purpose ... on pc\mobile ...
one more thing .. why do you think there is Windows , Linux and Mac??
could not other parties just SAVE there time and NOT develop another OS!!!!

Hey, didn't try it yet but I have some suggestions, in addition to a web service:
reply to sms / transfer calls to PC
low battery event
as an option, deliver every notification from notification bar (alarms, songs played, ebay auctions ending, FB msgs, etc.)
cheers
Mac version would be awesome .

Using bluetooth maybe ? PC as a handset (would have to be paired before)
I understand then distance range would come as a limit for many use cases, but could still be enjoyable instead of standing up to pick up the phone !

Guest Mode

I am using a Custom ROM on Xolo Q800, 4.2.1, how can i enable Guest mode?
What exactly do you mean. Do you want to create a user account for guests.

It is only possible on tablets and is only available as a feature on 4.2 so he would need a tablet running 4.2

Guest Mode for All Android Phones (App)
The first time a guest mode was revealed for any android device was with the launch of LG G2 series phones. This feature was advertised so well in the media. I also bought an LG G2 at that time (not for this feature alone) as it was a great phone. I realized that a little over six months had passed and I seldom used the Guest Mode feature on the phone.
The guest mode in G2 and the one in the upcoming Android L (5.0) is something that is too apparent in nature. What I mean is that any adult who is given a phone in the guest mode will easily be able to come to know that they do not have the full access to the phone. In cultures (like India), it will be considered very rude in case I lent a phone to another user in Guest Mode. Also, what do you do when you Dad asked you for your phone, you surely cannot give him in Guest Mode (this will make him more suspicious).
This was the practical challenge when I decided to make an app for myself, the app that I have been using is similar to an app locker. However, it has been added with a screen lock as well. I chose two different types of passwords (one master and another guest). The app allows me to chose all the applications that I consider private and want to be locked (such as emails, whatsapp, other chats, picture gallery etc). When I unlock my screen using the master password, the screen gets unlocked and all protected apps get unlocked as well. When I give my phone to someone else, I just give them my guest password. The screen gets unlocked normally using the guest password, however, all the protected apps continue to be locked. This helps me easily give my phone to others.
When I gave the app to my friends, the kind of response that I received was overwhelming. So launched it for public as well. You can download the app for free from Google Play. Just search for Pluggdd on Google Play, it is the only app on Pluggdd as the developer.
Looking forward to feedback from you all developers on what is missing in the app and what more features can I add.
Hi, I have XOLO Q800 running with android 4.2.1 and my son somehow enabled guest mode. When i try to remove / change it, it is asking for a password. My son says he did not give any password. With guest mode, i cannot see call log or SMS messages. How can i remove it without a password.

Free Remote Android Support App

Zikk is unique mobile to mobile remote support app.
So what's so special about Zikk?
It is designed for consumers and not for IT depatments and operators,
therefore it is extremely simple and user friendly.
It provides full privacy protection - no screen sharing, and no access to SMS, email, etc.
It doesn't require constant internet access, and doesn't prevent the recipient from using his
phone for other purposes during the process.
It supports all Android devices (2.2 and above).
In addition to remote support, Zikk contains a local settings menu which uses Zikk's simple
and friendly interface.
When people have a hard time setting up their smartphones, they ask help from their friends
and family - Zikk enables users to help each other.
APK attached. Also available on Google-Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zikk.alpha)
where you will also find a short and helpful demo video. You van also find the video on YouTube (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IsP9-Lpfwpk).
So both people need Zikk installed, I presume? Does the person you are helping get prompted to download it?

Correct. If the selected contact does not have the app, the user will be asked to allow sending
an automatic SMS with a link to the download page. There is also a share option where you can
send this message (via SMS, WhatsApp, Facebook, etc.) to one or more people.

This really does sound great; however, does it support wifi-only tablets? Is the phone number just to receive verification code? If so, will any mobile phone number work?

The current version is designed for Android phones does not support WiFi-only tablets or
large screen tablets, however in a few weeks I will publish the tablet version, which will
include UI adjustments, tablet related features and a different registration process.
Sounds AMAZING! I'd really like to use this to help my friends and family. I live in India though
No worries, I'll wait
fantastic idea!!! this will surely take off!! kudos to the OP!!
how far this app will go ? I mean can I help someone from anywhere ?
What about phone types? What if my phone is a Nexus and the other device is a HTC?

Thanks, updated - since I'm a new member I can't post links so
I posted the app's package name and the title of the demo video

Great ideas for the next version - thank you very much!
I like the app a lot, but what make it one of the best is if I could move, install, & uninstall system apps, and a root file manager so that we can help rooted users also
uninstalled this app from my Galaxy Note i717 and now the home screen is gone and I cant get back into recovery?
oh cool its like remote assistance for android!

Actually a version for rooted users is an interesting idea. Not sure how common "less tech savvy"
rooted users are though. If you have more ideas for features for rooted users I would love to hear them.
I actually have a friend who is just getting into root use who calls for advice when he needs it. Let's be honest we were all beginners once and maybe could have used a little hand. He moved recently so there is distance involved now. This looks like a great idea.
I would love to have access to the settings menus, root file explorer and perhaps apps he already has installed such as set CPU or apps of that nature.
Beginners in root use are just as confused by root abilities as beginners in android are of it's stock features at times.
It would be really great to be able to start a log cat app and have your friend do something that normally causes a crash for example if they are not advanced enough to run one themselves. A current issue I have on hand. Trying to explain how to run one and sending videos to watch.
Hope this keeps going :thumbup:

[Q] How to know if im affected by mobilespy android keylogger?

Im having a doubt that my smartphone is being keylogged by this thing called mobilespy android keylogger. Everyone is watching everything I do with my smartphone including the photos I take and save, facebook and whatsapp messages( both incoming and outgoing) and even the music I hear. My friends are responding to whatever I do by uploading photos in fb, whatsapp and through status updates in both. I dont want to get rid of this keylogging. I just want to get the details of this keylogging like whoever it is senting to and any proof to show them. Because I want to catch them red-handed. Please help!!
I posted about this issue in xda several months ago, but this thing called mobilespy never came to my mind. Thats why Im asking. Also, I want to know this thing works in safe mode too? Please help!
Help me!
It is hard to tell since some mobile spy app like mobile spy, spyfone app and iKeyMonitor are totally invisible. But you can restore your phone to get rid of such apps if you suspect it.

Here is my professional advice based on several facts:
You joined XDA in October 2014; posted four messages about being spied on and keylogged on Android; have had and continue to have numerous issues being hacked/taken over; you use firewall and other android apps to no avail; all other non android equipment works fine for you. So, Android is "definitely" the culprit.
Here is the advice: ask for a raise from Mr. Cook or better have him make you the chief of Apple's propaganda department...

Dont let your afraidness take you over!
Go and make a factory reset of your phone.
Next time buy a blackphone and you and your mind have peace...
All the best!

What am i looking at?!?! H E L P ! ! !

I continously find weird and new folders on my phone whose content seem fishy to say the least. I feel like my husband has hacked my phone just from looking at some of the files content. Please help me decode. Thank you.
the attached file is from a bug report.
also, I forgot to mention I dont use Microsoft at all on my phone yet these 'logs' continue to pop up from time to time.
I'm using a Samsung a11.
has your husband joined up recently too ?
fb is facebook and it's likely for ads.
Do a quick search on fb.bin

yea logs are your systems way of checking how your system is doing.
If you open one up it'll probably list the time, and what you did on that time frame.
