KitKat 4.4 :: How To Deny Or Restrict Network Access To A Specific Application

Apr 2, 2014

I wanted to restrict an application from accessing network, so that application does not upload or download. Basically to stop rouge application from suspicious network activity.

I understand Android provides a way to limit/restrict network access for Mobile network, from Settings --> Data Usage screen. But I'm looking for a way to completely restrict network access (both mobile and WiFi networks) to any particular application.

I'm using Moto G, Android Kitkat

Motorola Droid : How Do You Deny Specific System Access

Nov 13, 2009

I installed the Nimbuzz app today. It has system access to prevent the phone from sleeping. Which really sucks because I can't leave it running in the background so I stay logged on. If I keep the Nimbuzz services running then The display won't time out on inactivity. If you close the services then You can't get the incoming chats.

Is there away to deny certain access to apps but allow the rest and install it? From my experience I've only seen that it's all or nothing.

We are going to make the app available for .99 on the market, but is licensing it a must? We are worried about the license query bugging the user/always requiring network access. Should we definitely license regardless of our worries?

So I cancelled my all access trial, I don't find it useful to me, even though I cancelled it, I'm still seeing radios, and other all access features. Will it disappear from my Google Play Music after it's supposed to expire (06-07-2014)? My account type still lists as All Access...

Android :: Symbian To Android Wifi Or Network Access Application

Sep 11, 2010

Having seen similar threads i know im not the only ex symbian user, not that i didnt enjoy my time with it but its time to move on! ive tried to see if this question has been repeated elsewhere but i couldnt so i do apologise if i missed it!

on my previous symbian devices n95 and 5800 if i used an app that required web access be that wifi or over the network it always asked me if i wanted to allow this, and i thought it was a good feature. now i just got a HTC desire and for financial reasons couldnt get an unlimited data plan from o2 in the uk just yet otherwise id be happy to let it be on all the time.

now it seems that if you want devices to connect you either have the wifi on or off, same for the mobile network. does anyone know if there is a setting or app or anything in the pipeline that might emulate this symbian function? maybe its me just being a bit funny but i found that level of control good and it didnt mean i had to go backwards and forwards turning stuff on and off. if its not possible im sure ill get used to it but it would be a good feature!

secondly i have a Ford Focus euro model with a built in bluetooth hands free to the stereo, a factory fitted option which i believe uses a nokia Bluetooth module (stereo is sony) now this really is a minor quibble but on the old phones when the bluetooth was on any incoming calls would push the ringtone through the speakers untiill i answered it

using the desire the phone still rings normally with whatever ringtone i have but it pushes a plain ring ring through the speakers, anyone know a way to change that? or mute the phone when it rings and just push the ring through the stereo?

General :: App Notifies When Connected To Specific WiFi Network

Mar 10, 2014

I perused the play store looking for an app that will notify me whenever I connect to a specific wifi network but didn't have any luck.

Why I'm looking for this functionality

- i'm on a wifi only plan with my carrier
- my work has a wifi network but it requires me to provide login credentials before it is useable, so I'll be connected to their wifi network but I often forget to login to make it useable.

General :: Movies Via Android Market - Country Or Network Specific?

Mar 7, 2012

I have an HTC Desire HD on Orange UK. In the market I have only ever seen apps & books. I have never seen movies or music listed. I have, until now, assumed that these were probably only available in certain countries because of licensing agreements.

I was discussing the rebranding to Google Play with a colleague, only to find out that they have, and have done for a while, a section in their Market /Play Store for movies. They have an HTC Desire S on T Mobile UK.

Why would I not have movies available via my market? I'm guessing that it wouldn't be handset compatibility, so would it be that Orange are blocking this for some reason? Who else, in the UK, has the movies option, and who doesn't? What is the common ground between each group?

They do not have music as a Market section, so I guess that I was right about this, and it is not available to the UK at all?

Android :: Wifi Connection - Connect To Access Point With Specific Name

Oct 1, 2010

I have an application in which I need to connect to an access point with a specific name. Therefor I start a scan (WifiManager.startScan()) and listen to BroadCastEvents of type SCAN_RESULTS_AVAILABLE_ACTION and NETWORK_STATE_CHANGED_ACTION. When the scan results are available, I check if my AP is found and if so I connect to it.

When I'm connected to the AP, I receive a NETWORK_STATE_CHANGED_ACTION and there I open a SocketConnection to my serverSocket. The problem I'm having is that on the moment that I'm connected to the AP, the DHCP request is not yet finished. This causes the opening of the socketConnection to throw a "SocketException: Network unreachable". A few moments later I see in the logcat logging: WifiStateTracker - DhcpHandler: DHCP request succeeded. If I try to connect after this message, all goes fine. is there an event that I can listen to that informs me that the DHCP request is done? Now I try to create a connection and while an error occurs I retry. This is however very dangerous for hanging (if e.g the dhcp fails, the loop will never stop...)

KitKat 4.4 :: No Samba Access Since 4.4.2 Update?

Jan 5, 2014

I have a Samba server at home, running from my router's USB port. I access files on this drive from my Nexus 4, my Nexus 10, my Windows computer and my iPad. Up until very recently, this was all working swimmingly, with no problems.

However, since the most recent Android update, i have been unable to access the Samba server from either of my two Android devices. The Android devices can see other devices on the network (via ES File Explorer), but no longer the USB device attached to the router, via the Samba server.

This isn't a problem with ES File Explorer as the exact same issue is found when using other remote file viewers. And this isn't a problem with the router, as I called the manufacturer, who also acts as my ISP, to check the settings remotely, and they said that they're optimised (as you would expect, as the other devices are still working fine).

I tried to access the server using AndSMB, failing again, but getting this error message:

smb://yourserver:445/ java.net.UnknownHostException: yourserver
PWD
smb://yourserver:445/ java.net.UnknownHostException: yourserver

KitKat 4.4 :: Is Root Only Way To Get Full Access To External SD?

Apr 17, 2014

I really don't have any desire to root in general...perhaps if it were all simple and zero-risk, OK.

But I'm considering root just to get full, normal, access to microSD. Is root the only way to get access?

General :: Write Only Access To Internal / External SDCard On Kitkat

Jun 2, 2014

I am using a mt6582m device with kitkat 4.4.2 with supersu. I can use root to write to system, data and cache using es file explorer, can also read and write to any sd card, but apps like titanium backup, online android backup, ram expander can't read/write to sd card.

Eg.1: ti backup read backups, can do all operation except backup and restore.
I had read a lot, changing backup path didn't worked nor any odex file is there. Using v6.1.5.6.
Eg. 2: ram expander can create swap file on sd but can read it saying 'not found'. Swap can be used with cache partition.
Eg. 3: online nandroid backup says pat not vaild.

I had tried, sd fix app, manually editing platform.xml, xposed module to 'handel external storage', change permissions using es file explorer, editing ramdisk.

There is storage/sdcard0 and 1
Also mnt/sdcard and mnt/sdcard2 (symlinked)
Also mnt/media_rw/sdcard0 and 1 (not readable even in es file explorer)

2.1 Update :: Generic Or Network Specific Update On Phone That Has Been Unlocked?

Nov 2, 2010

I have an X10 Mini that when new was locked to the Orange UK network but I have since unlocked (but not unbranded) it and now use a different network. Which Android 2.1 update will I need? Generic, Orange or the new network provider? If it is the generic one will this also have the benefit of unbranding the phone and getting rid of Orange apps? If it is the Orange upgrade will the phone become locked to their network again and require unlocking again?I need the phone to stay unlocked for the future.

I'm looking for a notepad app that, well, looks like an actual notepad.

Android :: Network Access With HttpClient Using AsyncTask

Mar 16, 2010

I am trying to use a certain wrapper of HttpClient, called HTTPRequestHelper with an associated responseHandler as the basic class for my wrapper to a web service which is implemented as a singleton.

HTTPRequestHelper and samples of usage are described in chapter 6 of "Unlocking Android" published by Manning.

My problem is that invoking both the helper and the handler from a thread started on the main UI thread (either from an AsyncTask or directly) works only sporadically.

Here is the basic setup.

public class APIService { private ArrayList<Something> myThing;

CODE:.................

Android :: Network Access Is Slow In Emulator

Aug 5, 2010

I've noticed very poor performance in the emulator (1.6 and 2.1) when trying to complete the forth statement below. It will take 5+ minutes running in the emulator. Interestingly, when I debug on my phone it's not nearly as bad at maybe a minute or so, but still not great. Running the app on my phone without debugging yields great performance (seconds). URL url = new URL(CommonProperties.BASE_SERVICE_URL + "param=1"); DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance(); DocumentBuilder builder = factory.newDocumentBuilder(); Document dom = builder.parse(url.openConnection(). getInputStream()); is there something I can do to speed up network access while using the emulator? Has anyone noticed anything similar?

Android :: Network Connections / Access Points

Jul 16, 2010

I have some code that uses a network connection. I create a connection by calling openConnection() on a URL object. Is there any documentation that explains how this process works? Which access point is being used? When that access point becomes invalid, will it automatically switch to another accespoint? etc. I would like to use only WiFi access points and otherwise fail even tho 3G or GPRS could be available, is that possible?
