I write Android apps, distributed via the Market. A user has written asking whether they can have the raw .apk of one app (they're in a country where the Market isn't available).
Is it safe to do this, or do I risk getting ripped off in some way - having my app copied and redistributed, for example?

I have tasker and can set it to turn on wifi at a certain time, however tasker can only move a file if it is given a specific file name. It doesn't seem to be able to move all files in a specific directory (unless I am mistaken).

AFileShare(was named as "discover") is a mobile file manager application that allows you to manage, store, view and transfer files with other computers or GPhones, within the same Wi-Fi network. It also allows you to access local or public servers on the Internet, both within or without Wi-Fi connections.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to share media between users in Android 4.2.2 (Nexus 10)? I mean sharing a large number of photos and movies, something without online connection (no dropbox/drive). A solution without duplicating the files in each account is highly preferred.
I know /sdcard/Android/obb folder is shared, I used it to transfer large files between the accounts. But it is not recognized by Media Scanner / Gallery. Links are not working for me (I tried both - symbolic and hard link, ln -s reports Function not implemented, ln alone Operation not permitted. Not mentioning that root shell doesn't see the content of obb (strange)). Folder sync seems not to work either (even though it states 4.2.2 is supported).
I would like to share a cache file across activities, which are running in different processes but in a same application.So, is there any way to make it thread safe (probably not "thread safe", should we call it "activities safe" or "process safe" ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm not trying to remove programs necessarily, but more trying to clean up my SD card. I don't know if this makes a difference, but I am rooted. I have a bunch of folders on my SD card that I'm not sure where they came from or what they are for. If anyone can tell me what I can delete, I'd seriously appreciate it. Here's my list:
.tmp (directory)
albumthumbs (directory)
amazonmp3 (directory - I've never used amazon mp3)
Android (directory)
Clockworkmod (Directory)
Cracked Apps (I made this, I use this one) (Directory)

Am trying to drag/drop files from my Droid to my PC and back but cannot figure this out to save my life. I want to do it via wifi,not bluetooth. I DL es file explore but I cannot get my PC to recognize my Droid like it would if I connected via USB and mounted. How in the world do I get it so I can swap files back and forth? ES keeps asking for a password and I have no clue what password it wants. I did my initial logon password and it got me in but past that it's a no go. Not to mention the biggest prob is trying to get the PC to recognize it has the Droid connected and looking at files on its network. I'm using Vista and am rooted using Droidmod.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI've just loaded some mp3 files onto my Nexus 7.
My daughter has an account on the same device and I'd like to give her 'read only' access to the mp3 library in my account (rather than loading the same files into her account and wasting space with 'duplicate mp3' files).
None of the file manager apps I've tried so far seem to have the ability of setting file permissions.
I used to be able to just plug the phone into the computer via USB and a drive letter would appear and I would be able to easily move files off the phone and to my computer.
Now when I plug the phone in Media Share pops up with numerous menus and sub menus. Best I've been able to figure out to do is copy one individual file at a time to some mystery folder somewhere on my network. Or using DLNA it opens up Windows Media Player on my computer which shows previews of the photos but no way to transfer the actual files.
I am not v ery clear why I can;t select multiple files and share via bluetooth. And why they call using bluetooth as Beaming in this phone.

However, they are widely available on sharing sites (hotfile, rapidshare, etc). The question: How can we ensure safety when installing apk from unofficial sources?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI use a single static class in my code that defines a static field which I'm reusing between Activity onStop/onStart invocations. Here's a scenario:
User clicks on "Authorize" button (static data is initialized) Activity is stopped and web browser is called
Browser executes callback and Activity is restored (static data is reused)
At least one of my users reports the failure at step 3 which I cannot reproduce but which looks like reset of static data.
This procedure can clear a large number of problems and should be tried before a Hard Reset.
1.) Turn phone off remove battery WAIT for at least two minutes.
2.) Power On Phone while Holding MENU key Until ALL actions finish from Powering on phone At the bottom left corner of the display in transparent text will be the words "Safe Mode"
3.) Power off phone again battery out wait two minutes
4.) do a normal power on
i just got the 2.1 update this morning and was cleaning up a few unused apps and i came across launcher. I couldn't believe I still had it on here (been using sweeterhome) and so i remembered i had to go into safe mode to remove it. Tried to get into safe mode no luck. thought, ok, i'm missing a step or something. looked up the directions to make sure i was doing each step correctly and still nothing! i've held the power button and the menu button (keyboard) down at the same time until i saw the eye, until after the haptic then major vibration. i tried holding the menu and power, then releasing the power while still holding menu until both things i just stated and still nothing! what is happening is after I hold the buttons until after the vibration one of two things happens,it will go back to the screen that spells out droid then the eye or it will load normally, no safe mode on the screen. i read somewhere doing a google search that someone else had this same experience and asked for help and no one replied.

Or is there a better more standard way to get it? I'm using the literal string "System Group: My Contacts" when I query the Groups table to get the source row for the My Contacts group. I found this constant by poking around in the debugger, but It's not documented anywhere that I could find, so I don't know if it's the right thing to use. Is there an actual constant somewhere that I should be using to find the "My Contacts" group? Code...
