Database Info

need help with very small program for myself.. plz help

im trying to get a very very small program runnint, however im very lost when it comes to programming windows mobile device, i have a database online, and i want a small dialog box to show up on my wm device and alow me to type something in , then it search the online database.. and return the information, or even just take me to where the online listing is, that's all no bells or whistles.. could someone help me with this please?
i have even added a search feature to my database, soo i just basically want this little program to relay text to that search feature, then take me to it.. so i don't have to go to all these links and whatnot

Well,
it is quite hard to advice you anything without actually knowing about the file structure / database format. Maybe the easiest way would be to simply set up a search option online as a WAP2.0 page - if you don't want others to access this section, simply password protect it.
If you really have a need to generate the 'search string' offline (which I just can't understand since you want to be taken to your DB online) then simply use something which generates the search string for you.
For example you could have a "results.php" online which simply needs the search terms 'attached' in order to list you all relevant records. Now, the question remains how the database is structured. If you have 2 fields in your database, containing firstname and lastname, then it would be simple. You would need only something that adds your search terms to the string and then navigates to your server. For example you search for SMITH as lastname, it would have to transfer the string as followed:
www.mysite.com/results.php?lastname=smith
For sure your results.php needs to be programmed first!
However,
this has nothing to do with your device, you better join a programmer forum - in this case I would suggest you look for web development forums since this can be done entirely on the server side!

Text Messages Not Registering Properly

For background info this please see this thread.
Guess I can't post links
Quick summary is that if I get "X" number of texts from someone and open up that group, instead of marking them all as read when I close out of that group, it only marks one so I have to open and close that group "X" number of times to get all the messages registered properly.
This is prevalent in all three 6.1 builds and in one or two packaged ROMs done by Ryan Mogul here at XDA. I have a temporary fix in place in the form of a "mark all as read" menu option, but obviously this is not a preferred solution.
Nowhere have I heard of this issue, but I have been told it has been documented before. Any help is would be greatly appreciated and I'm willing to do almost anything on my end short of mailing you the phone and switching from build 21057.

Have you ever tried THIS? Much easier to manage sms's.
good day.

I am aware of that program, and if a fix is unavailable will most likely use it, but in the meantime I'm still looking for any more info on this issue.

[Q] Blocking Outgoing SMS for android

I apologize if I break some rule, I posted this in another thread but realized the topic concerned a G1. I am not allowed to post on the development thread due to my just joining.
I'd like to find an app that would block outgoing SMS text messages. I've tried to find one that would do such a thing and have been unsuccessful. I've also thought about creating my own but realized it is way beyond my level of comprehension.
The way I see it the app could run a script that if the particular number was detected would disable the radio for a certain period of time and delete the message before the radio coming back on. it would be password protected to allow control and prevent unauthorized use.
I want to do this because there is a particular number I no longer want to text. I've memorized the number so deleting the contact is not an option. I'm not looking for criticism about my weak constitution. You're not my psychologist. I'm just trying to find a way to resolve this issue before they have to change their number to avoid me.
If there is someone out there working on this I'd really like to find out about their progress. if not then a starting point on how to create this app.

Hello,
The Galaxy S7 has multiple variants and builds. Normally when asking this kind of question, you should include the model of your device. That way anyone wanting to help you actually has the knowledge to be able to do so. Phones have different internal parts, memory space, and so on. You can find your model number by doing the following:
- slide down the notification bar, sometimes you may have to slide down twice depending on the device. Click the gear in the upper right hand corner. "Settings"
OR
- Access your app drawer or all apps section and find your "settings" section/app. Most of the time it will have a icon of a gear, or three lines that resemble on off switches. Older androids sometimes use just have three lines (as the settings icon)
- Find the section labeled "About Device / Device Info" its usually labeled something similar if not exactly. Open this section
(Galaxy phones usually have this section at the bottom of your "settings" section)
- Somewhere within this section, there will be a label that reads "Model" and that is your specific variant which is needed in device specific situations.
* Take Note of this for future reference. You might think okay ill remember that. But when you come to realize your devices model number may be XDA-2017T1 and you look for something pertaining your device. You will also find something like this:
XDA-2017
XDA-2017YP
XDA-2017YP2
XDA-2017T0
XDA-2017T2
XDA-2017T10
Assuming that you will continually update and/or customize your phone. You will probably just memorize this, along with other important information. Some important things you should include while researching is as follows (the top two are very important)
1. [Model Number] ex) XDA-2017T1
2. [Android Version] ex) 6.0.1 Marshmallow
3. [Baseband]
4. [Kernel]
5. [Chipset]
6. Is device "rooted?"
7. Is the bootloader unlocked?
8. GSM or CDMA. Older devices even use IDEN
Those are only some.
* I also want you to know that im not trying to lecture you, or give you a hard time. I am honestly trying to help you and in order to successfully help you I have to ensure that you know things, or mention things, that is important to do. So your device isnt broken, or you get information that is correct but incorrect for your specific device.
But back to the topic originally referenced.
Q) "Is the program Dr. Fone able to bypass the screen lock security measures on the Samsung Galaxy S7?"
A) Based on limited information that is device specific, and the current Supported Devices section from Dr Fones documentation
"No"
• Dr. Fone doesnt have the capabilty to bypass your screen lock. They will probably include the S7 within a period of time due to it being a main stream phone though.
• Remember this; locks can and will be broken. Just because a vulnerabilty hasnt been exposed or discovered doesnt mean that its 100% secure.
• Keep current with OTA updates, keep in tune with tech type news.
• Encryption is vast subject, but I can refer to it like the "invisible magical ink" That was popular in the 90's. The light that reveals the ink to the naked eye, is your password. The inabilty to see the ink normally without a specific tool, would be encryption. So if someone cracked your password, your encryption would also be disabled. I linked more information below, for you to read. I still dont fully understand encryption myself, nor do I believe or trust it.
I based this information assuming your device is the SM-G930. It is accurate as possible but not guaranteed. Do realize with the information I mentioned and with the question you asked. I was able to do a simple Google search and almost immediately found the answers. Try to figure things out before you ask in the future. You can repeat the process of not researching prior to posting but typically your post will die. If you get stuck and have put forth honest effort, the great people here at XDA will probably help out greatly. I hope I have helped you, and you now feel better about your concerns. please pay it foward.
If you feel ive helped or gave a honest attempt to help. Hit the thumbs up, that is the thanks button.

I'm sorry, I completely forgot to mention the model of my S7, it is the SM-G930F on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, thanks for answering me.
On the other hand, I'm disappointed that a commercial program can unlock a phone.
I hope that this way of circumventing the locking of smartphones will be solved, because malicious people could use it to unlock phones that do not belong to them ...
The only way to protect yourself from this program is to install an application that protects personal data.
Thank you again for answering!

Wondershare Dr. Fonefor unlooking thr screen.
Wondershare Dr. Fone is a powerful instrument to regain iPhone lost information, it can help scan and recover them from iTunes or iCloud copies in case you've got backup your iPhone into iTunes or iCloud, or it helps you regain contacts directly from the device. Besides it's harmonious with iPhone 5s/5c/4S/ / 4/3GS and it might recover 18 kinds of content such as pictures, videos, contacts, messages, notes, and phone log, voicemail, voice memos, calendars, reminders, etc.. :good:

I agree with you. A commercial program available for a few dollars can unlock a password protected phone. What is Android/ios waiting to solve this threat?

Feature Request: Delete XDA account via web interface!

There are extensive possibilities to edit an XDA account. Your can specify and fiddle with almost everything. But:
The essential option 'delete account' is missing!
This should have been implemented directly after the 'register account' functionality. Actually even before that!
Please fix this! (In fact, this is not a 'feature request' but a bug report.)
Regards.

This may not be something that is clearly pointed out for many but, it's available.
If you go to the following link...
https://www.xda-developers.com/contact/
... You'll see various options available to you like the "Change username or cancel an account."
If that preferred method doesn't work out for you, you can also contact an administrator like @MikeChannon via PM or email and he'll be more than happy to help you out with account management/support.
Good Luck!

Sorry, it's NOT available. What you tell me to do, is to fill out the contact form. That's not what is widely considered as a web interface.
Or would you say, the 'register new user' functionality was complete by saying: "Well, just send an email to the administrator and beg for an account."
I suppose not. I'm disappointed by that answer.

Yeah, that's better than nothing. But:
I can edit my user profile and settings just like that, while I am logged in. I don't have to type in my user name and email again and again. How does that work? Well: because I am logged in already!
But the said deletion process totally ignores that I am logged in. I have to enter my details again and then have a verification... yaaawn.
Why do sites like XDA put up so many artificial obstacles for people to get away.
The easier a process is, the more likely people will follow it. So, if the process was just one or two clicks away, your could boost the number of canceled accounts. Wouldn't that be something?

Well small sites and sites that moderate content before it shows in open forums may allow user controlled account deletion. However, many larger sites and sites that permit user content to show instantly, generally do not allow users/members to delete their own accounts. Why? well because it opens the door to assive amounts of abuse. A user could post all kinds of bad stuff and then delete the account thus making the culprit uncatchable, unstoppable. You see an account deletion that is compliant with GDPR meansno trace is left of the account. That means remaining posts cannot be tracked and cannot even be found since the user database no longer recognises the account. So we would have no idea where the user had posted or how many times... important if it is abusive or spam content.
In addition user controlled account deletion would render anning users effectively useless because the user wouldb still need access to the sites account deletion system even if banned. It would allow them to delete their account and simply create another one immediately.
We have multiple thousands of users online at a time, 60000 posts per day and because we cannot monitor all that in real time we have to have some control over what the "bad" users are doing. Changing user names and creating / deleting accounts every other day are things we would be 100% guaranteed to suffer from if we handed over direct control. We have massive numbers of users and inevitably we are constantly challenged by hackers, DDOS attackers, spammers and other abusers and the ability to create and delete accounts with ease is not a good idea for us or the "good" users who would suffer the ill effects if we changed things.
Mike

Thanks for the clarification.
