Snapprefs Groups: How to get it working - Samsung Galaxy S7 Themes, Apps, and Mods

I'm sure a lot of people that have Snapprefs would wish that the groups feature would work but unfortunately it just crashes everytime you want to 'Add A New Group' while in SnapChat. However you can fix this manually by creating the files yourself and its pretty simple!
--Requirements--
°Root Browser
°The actual SnapChat names of the people you want in your group (Not ones that you have set yourself)
°A bit of your time
------------------
In the SnapPrefs Folder, Create a folder called 'Groups'. Then on the Root Browser, go into that 'Groups' folder' and create a file with the the title being what you want your group to be called for example 'Streaks'. Then open that file with the Text Editor and then make the first thing you write the exact name of the group title then put a ';' and write the SnapChat names of who you want to be in that group - For example "Streaks; testing_1; Hello23;'. Make sure even after the last name there has a semi colon after it so it is registered and into your group.
If you found this helpful leave a thumbs up that would be much appreciated.
Good luck!

[Q] How to Convert (.txt/.eml/.csv/.vmg) to (.sms/.stf/.xml)

Please Help
I'm trying to restore my text messages from my old phone and i have them in these various formats right now (.vmg/.txt/.csv/.dbf/.html/.rtf) and would like to preferably convert them to (.sms or .stf or .xml) so that i can sync it to my inbox in my HTC HD2 (Leo). What is best way to do this and how?
Thanks in Advance!
moved to the right forum, please post in the correct forums.
Me too!
I have the same question, but it seems there's no way, or at least I couldn't find any!
I hope someone develops an app for it!
found some options... (btw vmsg and vmg are the same afaik just the different ending)
1. the app on the play store vmg converter
2. if you have one vmsg file with all sms first split the file with "gsplit" with splitting the file every 1 times (or maybe it was 2 because of the first sms...?!?) BEFORE "BEGIN:VMSG" so every file starts with a non empty first line then use "ABC amber nokia converter" and save as you like... then you can import it with some tools from the play store if you have duplicate sms like me you can use AllDup before using ABC amber to delete the double sms
3. on the net there were also some intelligent python or whatever scripts to convert the files but im not very familiar with python...

Subfolder notification using ActiveSync in 4.4 tested and working!

Ok everyone, I know there are a fair number of us out there that have rules setup in Exchange to redirect emails from certain people to folders. The problem with this is that will stop us from getting notifications on our phones (NOTE: I am not referring to syncing those folders. Obviously they need to be synced but the issue was that even with them synced you do not receive a notification when an email arrives in the folder even though it did sync properly). I was shocked when 4.4 came out and this issue hadnt been addressed. However as per the official issue on the android code site a user found out an incredibly easy way to make it work! It appears it is built-in by Google they just chose not to enable the feature.
See this post: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=50188#c59
I wasnt sure where to post this as it should work for any phone running the new email app in 4.4 but I didnt want to create a thread in each phone forum.
Here are some directions that may be a bit clearer than the original comment above.
NOTE: I used Root Explorer (paid version) for this
- Go to your email database folder. Located at: /data/data/com.android.email/databases
- Click on the "EmailProvider.db" file (open in Internal Viewer)
- Choose "Mailbox" from the list
- From this list write down the corresponding "serverId" of each folder that you want to have notifications on
- Convert those numbers to Base64 using the following tool: http://www.motobit.com/util/base64-decoder-encoder.asp (note that you will remove any "=" signs after your number)
- Now go back a folder to: /data/data/com.android.email/shared_prefs
- Now find a currently syncing folder from that same account (i.e. likely labelled: Folder-<ACCOUNT NAME>-<BASE64STRING).xml) So as an example lets say [email protected]. In that example the folder with serverId "5" is being synced. In this case its the "Inbox" folder of that account
- Long press on that file and choose "Copy" and then copy it back to the same directory
- Rename your newly copied file changing JUST the BASE64STRING part to the one that matches the folder you want to sync
- Reboot phone and enjoy!
I guess I should post them in some of the phone forums... there was a big thread somewhere I remember posting in at some point
Thanks for writing out these instructions! Glad to see there's a workaround -- this one little issue has driven me nuts for forever!
Just for reference, there is a thread I've followed for quite some time that's been focused on this issue, but it's buried in a Galaxy S II forum, so I think it could be easy to miss. They seem to be on to the same solution you posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48140770#post48140770
EDIT: Actually, just noticed the XDA post I linked to is word-for-word the same as the Android Issue Tracker post you reference, so that's the same guy providing the solution. Small world.
Just an FYI that even in gmail 5.0 this issue still exists and is still easily fixed by adding the file as above (different folder now though). Apparently making this an option is beyond Google's ability
Have the same problem.
The real path to DB is:
/data/data/com.google.android.gm/databases/EmailProvider.db
Shared prefs:
/data/data/com.google.android.gm/shared_prefs
And the manual instructions at the first post of this topic didn't helped me.
I have OnePlus 3T A3003 with Oxygen OS 4.1.3 (beta7) (Android 7.1.1) and Gmail version 7.4.23.154506495.release.
Anyone have any ideas?

[APP][4.0+]Auto Move Free - the app that knows where your files should be!

Hi,
I recently launched my new app at Google Play and know I want to present it here!
Auto Move is an app, which moves all the files you want to your desired location - and you don't have to do anything for it!
Example: You want every PDF file you are downloading to be moved to a certain destination. That's no problem for Auto Move!
In order to get the app working like this, you have to add a filter, which is filtering for "pdf" files - if you want it to filter for several filetypes at once, that's no problem - just seperate the filter tags by commas. Alternatively it's possible to filter for the filename (e.g. "wallpaper" or "university").
After defining source and target destination you can save the filter now (or add just more filters) and begin filtering!
There's an option in the settings, which let you define how the app should work in the backgroud:
Service: The app will register new files automatically and begin to move them.
Time Intervall: The app will scan the filesystem for new files in the defined intervall.
no automatic filtering: The app won't do anything accept to told him so manually.
All advantages of the app:
unlimited amout of filters
easy configuration because of several filterwords in one filter
filtering for file extension or file name is possible
moving or copying of the files is possible
automatic moving (with service) oder by time intervall is possible
loss of data isn't possible since backup and restore feature
great design
RESTRICTIONS OF THE FREE VERSION:
there is a maximum of one filter
you can't restore a database backup
I've attached some screenshots, that you can look at the app.
I hope you like my app! If don't please contact me!
Here is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.luhu.automove.free
@luhu
What a most smart app I've ever seen! Good work
Can you add the case about apk files which require root permissions or xposed framework or not?
@marbulas
Thank you very much!
Do you mean that it should possible to filter for apk files with these different properties?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I think many people will need this app being much smarter.
(the specified amount of size of files, resorting files in specified directory based in date
(for example, many people will need to sort with folders about their photos and videos : if I take pictures today, the app put them into the folder names 20140915 made by the app automatically),
specied something other people suggests...)
Useful app i'm gone use it from now on! Keep the improvements coming
Thank you very much guys!
I'm going to look how difficult it is to implement these features!

Random mysterious files appearing in Downloads folder

I keep experiencing mysterious, extensionless files that appear in my downloads folder. Sometimes one, sometimes more. I have confirmed that they only appear after I open the Snapchat app, even for just a brief second.
When I open the files as text I get random Chinese characters that don't seem to want to be decoded.
What are these files? And how do I remove them for good? I can hide them, but they reappear under different names.
Is there any way to either
A) prevent an app from creating files in the download folder
B) change the directory where Snapchat creates these files
C) stop Snapchat from making these files altogether
I am using Snapchat Beta on an unrooted Droid Turbo 5.1
SOLUTION: Using es file explorer, I highlighted the unwanted files and selected Menu > Hide. They're gone now and they don't seem to be coming back even though I've been using Snapchat numerous times per day. Still, if anyone knows why these files exist, how to get rid of them, or how to prevent an app from creating a file like this in the first place, this information would be appreciated.
Thx bruhs
It may very well be spyware, like the one at mspy dot com, or a government spyware app distributed via Snapchat.
Based on the file sizes people are reporting and the way it changes, I'd say this file in particular is probably an encrypted log file for a key logger. That is: It is everything you've typed, and it's sent to the one who's spying on your phone activity.
Hint: Hiding the file won't solve the problem (for the person who's being spied on anyway...).

Wildcard and DateTime syntax in Android Automate app

Hi,
I'm new to Android programming and I want to automate a process in an LG phone (Android 5.1.1) with the Automate app. I want it to take a picture at a set time of day and send it by email to a recipient. I have it running ok, just without image file attached because the app expects an absolute file name for the attachment. The problem is that the camera uses the date and time as the filename which of course changes with each image. Is there a way to use a wildcard like 'DCIM/Camera/IMG_*' (btw this doesn't work) to select the just created file which is deleted after the email is sent. So there is only ever the new file that should attach to the next email in this folder when the flow runs, but always with a new filename. I've tried various versions that I found online like GLOB'[IMG_]*' and 'IMG_#' but it always errors with 'NoSuchFile'...
Another way would be if I could give each new image file the same name, that would eliminate deleting the just sent file because it would overwrite the old one and I could set an absolute filename for the attachment in the email template. But i have not found a camera app that allows me to define the filename nor a way to automatically change the name of the saved file.
The other thing I'd like to do is insert the current date and time as the subject line. Here too I have tried various versions that I've found like =DateTime() which either just display the code in the email when I put them in " " (I guess as they should) or error already when I try to save them in the app.
Any help would be much appreciated!
Regards,
Jimmy
