Try Advanced configuration tool, read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1361454

i have already installed Advance config. tools 1,5 but i don't make a own ringtone for sms...there is any tutorial?

Moved to WP7 Q&A

Settings > ringtones + sounds > ringtones

but the sms tone not be changed!!

Change for New Text or IM

Every time I try to change the SMS tone to the Achievement sound, the phone vibrates and exits out of the advanced configuration tool. Anyone else have this problem?

Okay, this was solved a few days ago on my HTC Trophy with the help of fellow members. first you will need a reg editor. if your phone does not have one or allows for one then you will need to over write the exsisting alert files via some knind of file explorer.

I have the registry editor and understand all of that, but how do I get the ringtone to the phone itself? I really just want to use the built-in achievement tone, but the Advanced Config App just won't make it "stick". Hmmm..

Oh that's easy, just upload you alert as a reqular ringtone via Zune. Here is a guide that helped me with explaining how to upload ringtones.

Okay, I understand you now, you want to use the ones that show up under the Advanced Configuration program. You can use those but somethimes they won't stick. Try going into your regular sound sentings and sent the ones you want to change to none, then go into the Advanced Configuration app and choose the ones you want there, they might show up as none as well but they should stick. Advanced Configuration looks at \Windows and finds the sound files that are avilable with in that folder only, if you want to add your own you'll have to do the reg edit thing.

Perfect, thank you! Dont know why all of the negitive comments on this app? If you need to batch rename, this is the app.

Re.* does not seem very intuitive to me. Took a quick look and don't see how it works as you don't seem to be able to select files to rename or I'm missing something.

Total Commander is a nice free app, but because of it's power, and it can be a little daunting.

I don't believe you can selectivly choose files. If you can, I cant find the option. I deal with many files in one folder, rename and move to a customer folder, therfore it works for me fine.

[Completed] Restricting internet access to specific apps when opened.

Greetings, XDA Assist!
I want to know if there is a way to restrict internet access to an Android app *ONLY* when it is opened.
For e.g, if I want to hide my last seen on WhatsApp, I switch off my WiFi/Data, and open WhatsApp -> Reply to the messages -> Close Whatsapp -> Turn Data on.
Is there a way to restrict internet access to only certain apps when they're opened, and regain access when they're closed?
It would be of great help if you direct me toward a solution, maybe a Tasker profile?
P.S - Classic XDA Lurker. Lurking for two years. Joined recently. You guys are brilliant. Keep up the good work!
Thanks in advance!

Hi there!
Depending on root or not, there's different option available
In your situation, I'd personally use Greenify
Or some custom ROMs have App Ops built in. You can select permissions on a per app basis. I don't think its quite what you're after in this case.
See if Greenify suits your needs. Read about it in the opening post in the thread I linked. ?
Good luck!!

And no, I don't think your example is going to hide last seen. As soon as you read or post anything, I'm sure it'll make you last seen. No matter how you try to hide it. As soon as you do download or upload. .. It knows you were on. Nothing will change that.
---------- Post added at 12:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------
Yes, I misunderstood your goal. You want the opposite of what I was thinking.
If the app is open and no data or WiFi...the app will not function while you use it.
If you don't want people seeing your presence on social apps....you'd have to not use them. Lol
Take care.

Thanks for the reply!
I'm aware of Greenify and my ROM does have App Ops.
I wanted to know how to automate it ONLY when you open the app.
Open Whatsapp -> App stops accessing internet (OR) WiFi/Data gets switched off. [Preferably former]
Close app -> Regains internet access.
Something similar.

I'm sorry, I searched Google and XDA....found nothing like what your after. Lots on keeping it off data when closed....but not open. Again....you can toggle airplane mode on, then open it and test your theory...but I doubt it will have your desired results.
Here's a tasker guide, you can check it out, or ask in the thread perhaps.

Doesn't seem to do anything on my G2. GUI etc works I suppose, but doesn't do anything to TV, DirecTV etc.

If I hold the IR sensor before a camera I can see that there is something sending.. I will have a look on it today again.

I've fixed the problem! It's now working.

How does this fare on Aosp roms?

You need to test it. You defenitly need to install a Quickremote SDK but anyway. For me it wasn't working because the SDK I used wasn't able to send raw IR pattern..
You need to test it and if it doesn't work search for a SDK that support it. (I didn't find one so I'm back on stock) [emoji53]

Is there an updated link for the fixed apk? Would like to try this out

It's the same link like before

Yep, I did a quick test on my DirecTV box and it toggled power. Now to figure out how to actually use it.. I guess you draw your own layouts, plugging in available buttons. I haven't looked beyond the raw database yet.

I guess I must be stupid but I cant figure out how to do anything except send a code from the list. Can't make a layout, and not quite sure how the HTML thing works.

Create Shortcut for Specific Activity/Screen?

Good Afternoon!
I'm trying to create some specific shortcuts for some time but until now no succeed. Then I've downloaded the "Oh My Shortcut" app, but I don't know how to fill the fields in the app. Someone konw it?
For example, a have the activity "com.teslacoilsw.launcher.appgroups.GroupAppListActivity". I just know that "com.teslacoilsw.launcher" is the package.
I have the "Shortcut Master" app, with which I got to create the shortcut in the home screen. But this app doesn't appear in the Shortcut Apps List (Home Screen -> New Sortcut).
I thank for any help.

I am not sure about how to help with those apps but, here's some helpful information that, I hope, will have the solution to what you are looking for.
The following is a thread for the Shortcut Master.

There's a bunch of apps that are specific to shortcuts and here's a few of them that are really good ones (and even offer free promo codes for XDA members as well as very good support too).

Hello, friend! Thanks for the reply. Actually, I have and tried to use the Shortcut Master and the other suggested app won't work for me because I use CM 12.1 (Lollipop based).
One new thing that I've found out today: while I was trying to solve the problem, it came a message saying that the requested command was denied because it is protected.
The strange thing, is that I made the shortcut using the Shortcut Master with the capture tool, but creating the shortcut with the other app results in the message above.
My dilemma is that the Shortcut Master doesn't appear in the Apps List (in the sidebar menu). Thus, I can't use it.
Hugs

If I remember correctly, when I had last used CM12.1 on my GS3, I had began using the Next Launcher (I'm still using now) and that has a Shortcut feature built into the Launcher.
It also allows for App drawer customization for the Shortcuts too.
Many/most Launchers have this feature but, I can only recommend the Next Launcher since I've been using it for a million years LOL!
