Hi. :good:
i have a device that won't access the playstore, my theory is that the freedom app that may cause it.

Good Luck:good::good::good::good:

Which freedom app is it? Is it this one?

@Archer I highly doubt it's that, many people report playstore problems when they use Freedom to unlock free in app purchases.

Sure, but it could be the one I asked about, and that could be responsible for his described issue. Let's let the OP answer us.

Thanks. You see - I'm not as harsh as some people say
@Archer You. Harsh? Hard to believe x) Anyways let's wait for the op.

@Tyrese999 Pardon? Did....what?

I will not say you have to delete it .
That's your choice.
To make your play store work again , you will have to delete the hosts file and you're good to go

For non working play store, open freedom up, goto the settings option and click on stop. That will terminate service. We you need to use freedom again, whatever app you open up will restart the service again.
*if you like an app after "trying" it with Freedom, then please make sure you support the developers.

Since two days ago i'm getting spam only from this site. When i surf xda chrome takes me to the following link www.itt-edu.us popping up a message that says my phone has been infected by a virus and if i select the pop up it takes me to the play store. Can someone confirm i am not the only one? It is really annoying! Please can anyone help me?
How about factory reset ? Do factory reset before your information and data go to some one..!

I had already found it myself but I refer i cant find the same as my problem specifically in concrete www.itt-edu.us
I also started getting this yesterday. I can't offer any solution (scan with avast app doesn't find anything), but at least you know you're not the only one.
For the moment i solved it by installing app webguard from the playstore. But anyways i would like to know the reason why it happens.

I've always wondered how much does it cost to make a simple app like Uber or something like this. I know it's a really general question but still, is there some minimum of money that are required for creating an app similar to Uber?

you can make your app for free but you have to pay some amount to the app stores to host it.
Hey guys!
Got my hands on the P40 Pro last Tuesday - the hardware is undoubtedly gorgeous and I've managed to get 99% of my Apps working...
I read you can use PetalSearch from the AppGallery to source Apps from multiple different sources. However, there's been a few times when I've been overjoyed to find an APK, but left dissapointed once downloaded, as they've been GMS based. Insight Timer is one example...
Anyway to filter these out to make finding my top App APKs easier? (HMS)

Well Huawei have a 4 layer security so when you install from Petal search it does scan and check that the app is secure, How are you getting on with the phone?

It's not so much the security, I'll find an APK via PetalSearch, download it, and it's a GMS based App so still doesn't work... There's gotta be a way to filter out what will and wont work, right?

App gallery has meditation apps in it or petal search will no doubt have many others to pick from that are not GMS. For me it's all about understanding that HMS has alternatives to GMS based applications. I haven't really found anything I can do on the phone. Is there anything else you've had difficulty with?

To be fair, I was pretty impressed with what went across via PhoneClone the first time! The meditation apps available from AppGallery are pretty naff at the moment, HOWEVER I've just used PhoneClone for a second time to bring Calm across... Can confirm it DOES work - It's more popular than Insight Timer, so maybe I'll stop being a little app hipster and get with the times

haha, i have heard of Calm before, apparently its good if your in to that sort of thing. Im glad you've found a work around for this app. How are you finding the phone?
petal search is probably the best thing to use for all apps, everything you need should be on there with no issues.

not quite sure what you are asking but if its whether its realisable, its been spot on for me :good:
From my use you cant filter them out however it does say before clicking an app that it may not work which suggests it may be GMS based.
I've been using it for a few days now and i feel that it is pretty good. Most things i have not have any issues with, You might get a message saying that you cannot use it without google services. Then it still works any way.

I agree this is my concern shall we say I use Power Director App for work quite a lot and got excited to say the least when I saw it was available on Petal Search but once downloaded the app itself does not load and reboots to the home screen, no bigger for now as I am WFH but will eventually need.

Hello everyone. To those out there that have already begun to help me and respond you have my sincerest thanks. I originally started this adventure just trying to get my pixel 6 to stop messing with my music settings and volume. Now I want to learn everything I can about all of this. In as broad and vague a term as that is. I wanna know how to do all of the things y'all know how to do. Please be patient as I'll probably ask some of the most irritating questions over the most basic stuff. Like what's this and what's that. Anyways thank you guys for the help so far and for having me.

Hey guys. Sorry about the horrible response time. Life been hectic recently. But no I have not set up a adb. I don't even know what that does entirely or the purpose of it.

I got a pixel 6. Not the pro. Nope I haven't even tried to do the adb yet as I'm not entirely sure of what it does or the purpose of it. As of right now nothing too specific. I'd like to know what the adb does and it's purpose and I'd like to eventually get to root this thing so I can have better control. So many options are greyed out for me that I know for a fact weren't recently. The settings I do change end up reverting back sometimes almost as soon as I leave the app. Settings for me is always crashing when i do something Google doesn't approve of. It's driving me bananas. Sometimes I'll literally sit here for hours fighting with this damned thing just to do something simple like play my music at the eq settings I want.

Yes. You can remove system apps. Do not go crazy though, if you delete a needed app your device could soft brick.
How to uninstall pre-installed system apps (bloatware) from Android phones without root
Android phones from most brands come with at least some amount of bloatware or unwanted apps. These could be in the form of common apps like Google Play Movies, Netflix & Facebook, or some truly useless junk. Some brands allow users to uninstall the bundled apps while others make them system...

Adb can be done on a PC. It is possible from your device without pc but it costs money and works way worse.

Is there a list of the system apps for a pixel 6 and what exactly they pertain to?
Not exactly any list. Pixels have the least bloat of any phones I know. Use a list with a file manager or app list app. Delete what seems unneeded. If in doubt, keep.
You can also get debloater which allows you to uninstall with one clcik. It is installed on your pc. You can google to find it.
Some things you can uninstall are Easter eggs, game optimization services, apps that you don’t need that you can see. Don’t delete any needed system services, settings, anything you think the phoen needs to function. Also, ones you uninstall, you can reinstall, but getting bricked and having to enter adb mode and finding what you need to reinstall is very frustrating and panicky (forgot the word).
App list app? So to do the adb the right way I get on my PC and do what?
I know what you mean. Messing with this thing I've already "soft bricked" it over 5 times. Longest was for bout 2 days. I don't know how to do safe boot or adb mode so it took me fiddling with it and messing with even more **** I don't get to fix it. Managed to not have to resort to factory reset tho. Kinda proud of myself for that.
Will I need to carrier unlock this before I do anything? My oem thing in developer settings is still gray. I know I'm still carrier locked.
