I was thinking about this earlier and figured I'd ask.If I made an application that has lots of resources, what would stop someone from extracting and adding/modifying the resources I ship with it?Does an application that doesn't want its data manipulated have any sort of option to protect itself?

Does anybody know if there's a way to encrypt and password-protect sent and received SMS messages?
I'm not bothered about encrypting messages being sent - just those that are stored on my phone.
Is there a way to listen for application launches?I'm trying to develop an application where the user can specify a list of applications that he/she wants to "protect." If they are in this list, then whenever the application is launched, my app will ask them to enter a password.However, I've been going through the Android SDK for days and can't figure out how to listen for application launches.
View 11 Replies View RelatedIs there any way to add new words automatically to the 4.2.2 keyboard dictionary?
It's really annoying to agree three times and then the keyboard closes in some apps.
SwiftKey adds them as you write them down without Flow/Swype for one time.
However I didn't stay by SwiftKey because I love the stock keyboard too much.
Any modification? I would be ok with an "one-click-add" as well.
I'm doing some stress testing of my SQLite database using the testing monkey and I got the following exception, which appears to be from inside SQLite. My app has many threads accessing the database but all of them do so in locking mode so I don't think this exception is my fault. Any opinions on whether I should worry about this exception or if it's just an artifact of the extremely fast monkey keyboard access? Code...
View 9 Replies View RelatedI wanted to know if it is even possible to either set up or modify email account settings programmatically. I do not believe it is, due to email applications controlling their own settings (and thus would depend upon a ContentProvider from that specific client), but I have not yet found a definitive "no", either.
Further, I was wondering about the email account support on Android in general. It appears that Android 2.0 and above will allow for multiple ActiveSync/Exchange accounts and mulitple IMAP/POP3 accounts, and displays these in the same inbox. Is this claim true? Also, how is this different from the other major Android releases (Android 1.5 and 1.6)?
Today i want talk with you about a Software "Problem" i have with my Android Car Stereo. For a good overview i write a short briefing.
- Android Car Stereo: icartech Alpha v800
- Android 2.2 Froyo
- root access (with z4root)
- adb access only with wifi
- no recovery Menu
- i got the original Stock Rom, which can flash on the System
The Problem:
The Launcher has a Dock with several system App Shortcuts. The Dock is fix, so i can't delete icons, can't change Icon Order, can't add Icons. No new installed app can add a shortcut to the Dock. Except iGO Primo, it's the only app, that has automaticly add a shortcut to the Dock.
I want delete some shortcuts, cause i don't need them and i want add some shortcuts that i daily need.
My Question is: how can i unlock the Dock that i can change thins? Or modify non system apps to add a shortcut to the dock? Is it possible that the launcher has a app list, which controlls, what app can add a shortcut and what can't? And when a decompile the Launcher in which .smali i can possible find the "permissions"?
I have a RikoMagic android TV stick. I want this functionality:
- I power up the stick
- the stick loads with wifi internet connection preset
- the system automaticaly opens browser in full screen mode with predefined starting page
- the user cannot change settings
Is it posible to make this with some aps (I hope free) or is it better to get some modified ROM (which?). I know this functionality is used in so called KIOSK modes, but as I can see all this software is very expensive.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI cannot figure out the origin of the ConcurrentModificationException. In my activity I'm calling
updateMapOverlay(). I'm also calling updateMapOverlay() inside another Thread (a TimerTask) that is invoked on regular intervals. I'm taking the appropriate locks when invoking updateMapOverlay() from both the threads. Is this problem being caused because I'm invoking updateMapOverlay from inside a non-UI thread (i.e., TimerTask).
private void updateMapOverlay() { this.itemizedOverlay.refreshItems(createOverlayItemsList());
List<Overlay> overlays = mapView.getOverlays(); overlays.clear();

View 4 Replies View RelatedWhat I wanted to do was change the lg default background during a phone call to the android stock gradient as i prefer the look of it better. I extracted the phone.apk out of the /system/app directory and found that the gradient images are already there. so my question is, why is the phone not using these images and how do i change it so it does. My first thought was a meta morph theme that only changed the phone app but seeing as the images are already there i guess there's no point.
