I have a Huawei Mediapad M3 Lite which does not come with guest account ability but it's cheap and cheerful and does the job for me. But I was wondering is there any way of setting this Android device up so that if I give it to my kids I can limit what they can see and do. I don't want them going on the internet and looking at something they shouldn't be seeing or being able to have full access to the play store to install rubbish. Any help would be appreciated. I just want to be able to give them the tablet and not have to worry about the content they are viewing.
Obviously having something like a guest account would have solved problems but Huawei don't make this available on this device which runs Huawei's EMUI 5.1 on top of Android 7.0

Correct me if I'm wrong but, doesn't the Mediapad M3 Lite series come with an app called Kids Corner or a feature called Kids Nook or something along those lines?
If so, it can be used to set the device for kids, they can only do things within Kids Corner or Kids Nook or whatever it's called(the name of the feature is different depending on the model) plus it is locked with a PIN, while they are locked within the feature, they can't access anything else on the device and the only way to exit the feature is to enter the PIN.

Hi, I'm not quite sure where to post this but any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am wanting to create a simple app which will show some information on the Samsung S6s edge panel, and so I am starting to try to get the samsung exmaple running.
I've developed android application before (some time ago), but looking through the Samsung documentation I am lost, i'm sure i'm not the only one.
**What I have tried so far**
I have downloaded the samsung look sdk here (dang, first post - I can't seem to link, but it's the samsung "Look" sdk.)
I can then import a project into eclipse from the samples called "EdgeScreenSampleApplication", and using android 19 I am able to compile it. However, I cannot run it on any emulator. I assume I need some special emulator to show the 'edge', but I cannot find one. When I run it on a Nexus emulator, I get:
[2015-03-21 21:01:33 - EdgeScreenSampleApplication] Installation error: Unknown failure
[2015-03-21 21:01:33 - EdgeScreenSampleApplication] Please check logcat output for more details.
[2015-03-21 21:01:33 - EdgeScreenSampleApplication] Launch canceled!
Now I am stuck, do I need a particular emulator? How can I get this thing running? I'd like to run it, then I can dig in to look at the code and see how it is working. Of course I do not have a Samsung S6 to test on as they are not yet released.
Hello.
Welcome to XDA Assist.
I don't think there is any emulator available for the Galaxy S6 Edge.
Even in the Look API video ,the app was tested on a Live device.
You can probably checkout Samsung's Remote test Lab feature to get access to some Samsung device remotely.
For better support you can sign up on forums and post in the App Development section .

Hi,
Thanks karandpr. I've signed up now. Unfortunately the Samsung mobile developer page won't actually let me sign up, whenever I try, the site gives an internal server error (error 500). I can only hope Samsung already know about that. I need a developer account to be able to try out the remote test lab (which looks fantastic and like exactly what I want).
Thanks for the reply, i'll wait a while and will try to sign up to the samsung page again, hopefully they'll fix it soon .
Thanks,
Steve

Hi Guys,
I'm looking for help and this is the last place i'm having hopes for..
I have native android app that was developed by me. and my company wants to put this app in tablet so then the app has true kiosk mode, loading on the start, auto-updating (somehow?? today I'm checking it with api call and forcing users to go to google play)
The current kiosk mode i have - isn't working that well across all the devices, Some tablets like samsung 8 inchers will cause app to crash on requesting device administrator. Some tablets don't allow me to disable turn the screen back on if user clicked on the button.
We would also like to add some AdMob and AdColony SDK's there but now the issue is that if either of this networks has a link to google play or just a web link it fires intent and kicking chrome instead which knocks my app to the background in some devices.
What do we need to do from here? I mean what do we need to find to get it done? We would be buying some specific tablets for that too so I guess we can modify ROM if that is required but I'm really don't have any clue where to start here.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

I cannot find an app like that.
I have 3 WhatsApp account, two for my two sons and a business one.
I would like to use them on the tablet and other phones if mine.
I don't want to use virtualization app such as parallel, for there's no need to virtualize anything and what's more I need three account and not just two.
On the Mac I use Franz, and I can configure as many WhatsApp account I like into it.
Do you know if something similar exists for Android?
Thank you.

I don't use WhatsApp myself but, with a ton of various WhatsApp apps that may have this type of feature your looking for, I can only think of the following one that, I believe, may be what your looking for.

Don't be afraid to ask for some support and guidance within that thread.
Good Luck!

Hi,
I am looking for an app. I need an app like Loop (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.isoron.uhabits&hl=en)
With this app, you can set some habits and flag if you did it today. But that’s it. You can just flag, yes or no.
I am looking for the same app but with amount/number option.
For instance, I would like to follow some habits like sleep time, push up, how many km I ran per week etc.
Loop would be perfect with this options because there are graphs and stats and it’s really cool to follow the progress over weeks
Do you have on mind any apps as simple as Loop but with the option that I need ?
Thanks you for your help. :good:

So i just was curious about something i have a couple of questions but I am going to be adding my question to this form relating to android administration editing and commands.
What is Null integrity on/off for?
RCC Version Setting?

WOW... It's been quite some time since I've heard of these. I haven't referenced/looked at those settings myself in a while as well. LOL!
I'll try to clarify them based upon memory...
1) I believe that the "Null Integrity" ON/OFF option basically controls the devices capability for Emergency Calls.
2) I think that the "RCC Version Setting" is the settings that is tied to the Remote Controls that are tied to the transport controls regarding items like showing the the metadata for certain images & media alike.
I believe that the first one is more accurate than the second because the term of "RCC" was used on a few different fronts with a slightly different meaning.
Maybe someone like @osmosis or even @Droidriven can help with this a bit further (or refer it to a more appropriate member) as, I may be correct about them both but, I may be wrong regarding the reference/application your asking about.
Good Luck!

Null integrity related to JAVA, that's a bit deeper down the rabbit hole than I'm familiar with, that's developer level stuff and I'm not a developer or experienced with JAVA.
I believe RCC version refers to a resource compiler tool as discussed in the link below.
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/rcc.html
I could be way of base though as I'm not familiar with development and its processes.
This is something that can best be answered by an experienced developer that is versed on these subjects.
