General :: Deactivation Of Device Administrator Fails
Sep 14, 2013
after receiving the recent update for my HTC One X (stock ROM, now Sense 5.0 and Android 4.2.2), the Notes Traveler app for my work e-mails is causing problems (it seems to lose account information regularly and notifies me of failed sync). Since it is about to be replaced soon anyway, I wanted to uninstall the app, which is not possible.
I tried to deactivate the device administrator for Lotus Notes in the system security settings. The checkbox remains checked after deactivation, although there was no error message.I tried to uninstall the app using the app management in system settings. However, the button for uninstalling is still deactivated.
When I go to device admins again and tap Lotus Notes in the list, it asks me if I want to activate it as administrator again. So here it seems as if it was removed from the admins, although the checkbox in the list is always checked.The same happens when I start Notes Traveler while Lotus Notes is seemingly not an activated administrator. I can then re-enter my password and the sync works for a while (less than 1 day) before it loses the password again and re-entering won't fix the problem unless I try removing Lotus Notes from the device admins (which causes all Traveler data to be wiped).
So it seems that the removal of Lotus Notes from device administrators does not work properly. Although I am asked for reactivation when I start the app again, the administrator is still active somewhere in the system and prevents uninstallation of the app.
I already asked HTC support but they only wrote that the system update often cannot be extracted completely and the only way to fix it was to wipe the phone. However, I never received any error message during or after the update and everything else is working perfectly well. Therefore I doubt that it is caused by a failed system update installation.

I'm new to Android (LG Optimus S) so maybe I'm missing something but I downloaded a lock screen widget today - and I can't uninstall it to save my life. I am not totally ignorant, I read the special instructions to remove the widget as a device administrator and tried that first but it just lets me select Deactivate but does not actually deactive, it stays as an administrator no matter what I do, so then the app won't uninstall.

Just installed the new 2.2 updated from Verizon/Motorola and received a message that my Exchange account needed to Activate Device Administrator with a whole bunch of permissions. Anyone else see this, know what it is?

Here is my vold.fstab WHICH I think is the problem
dev_mount storage_internal /mnt/sdcard 7 /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/mmc_host/mmc1
dev_mount external_sdcard /mnt/external_sd auto /devices/platform/sdhci-tegra.1/mmc_host/mmc2
dev_mount external_usb_disk /mnt/usb_storage auto /devices/platform/tegra-ehci
This is for a Dell Streak 7 ( a tegra 2 device) for a CM9 port.

I have a series of OpenGL-ES calls that properly render a triangle and texture it with alpha blending on the emulator (2.0.1). When I fire up the same code on an actual device (Droid 2.0.1), all I get are white squares. This suggests to me that the textures aren't loading, but I can't figure out why they aren't loading. All of my textures are 32-bit PNGs with alpha channels, under res/raw so they aren't optimized per the sdk docs. Here's how I am loading my textures:......................

I have tried with zero success to get a USB debug connection from a WinXP dev box to a brand X Android 1.6 tablet. I believe I had everything configured correctly on the Android and installed correctly on the dev box, but when the two are connected with a USB cable NOTHING HAPPENS; i.e. Windows finds no new hardware much less a new USB device; therefore, I cannot then install the Android SDK USB drivers on Windows and do the debug thing with Eclipse.
Either the mfg of the Android tablet device has disabled USB debugging and just didn't remove the UI that appears to enable it -- or I've left out some crucial step(s). (The device manual is 100% Chinese and I'm 0% Chinese, so it's no help. The tablet is very nearly, but not, the model A84 7" touch screen 'laptop' at 'www.lezestar.com' in case this helps.)
On the tablet:
- 'Settings/Application/Development/USB Debugging' is enabled.
- Tried 'Settings/Application/Development/Allow mock locations' enabled and not.
- Has 500MB internal flash 'hard disk'
- Has installed 2G SD card
- Firmware: 1.6
- Kernel: 2.6.29-002360g4f8dbbb-dirty
- Build No: 1.7.3
On Dev box:
- Windows XP SP3
- Device Manager finds no 'new hardware' when XP<-->Android USB cable is connected.
- Neither USBDeview.exe (Nirsoft) nor USBView.exe (Microsoft) find any evidence of connection with the Android
- Eclipse Galileo (3.5.2) with Android SDK (for 1.6) and ADV Manager.
- USB Driver package, rev 3. downloaded using ADV Manager.
Other:
- USB ports on both Tablet and dev box successfully connect a USB mouse.
- Tablet and Windows XP have been rebooted often.
Is permanently disabling debugging something that Android manufacturors are allowed to do and therefore I'm trying something that can't be done?
If the mfg has 'disabled' debugging, is there a way to work around this; e.g. download a tool that can change Android OS configuration to reenable it?

This is annoying me- When i try to turn off the pin lock i can't choose none. i see "Disabled by remote phone administrator"
I don't want a pin lock i just want the slide- is this a bug on my phone or is this a new thing that Verizon is enforcing?

I believe I have bricked an Alcatel 990 after flashing "cm-7-20121221-UNOFFICIAL-brandy.zip" via CWM.
Here are reasons why I believe it's bricked good and proper ;-P
1/ device boot loops when charging only via usb connection to PC
- 1.1 - device shows android logo - then "Alcatel One Touch Cyanogenmod 7" text/logo
- 1.2 - this loops continuous and never fully boots - output of adb logcat below
2/ when power-up off charge, only "menu", "search" and "back" soft keys illuminate - the screen+backlight stay completely off
- 2.1 - this remains constant until battery pull
- 2.2 - recovery mode via key combos do not work. Period. (no user error - assured!)
3/ when connected via usb during point 2 - there is not feedback from adb logcat - dead as a doorknob
- 3.1 - when boot looping (1.1 above) I get ~2seconds of adb connectivity then device reboots.
- 3.2 - fastboot <options> <commands> does nothing - device stays as "waiting forr device" this is contstant
- 3.3 - adb has better luck - I can invoke adb logcat and this captures log info as below
- 3.4 - adb recovery options fail and device reboots and hangs as on point 2 above
- 3.5 - adb shell shows rooted prompt for 2 seconds when <up/previous command+enter> very quickly repeated keyboard bashing style
- 3.6 - I have invoked "adb shell rm -r /cache/*" and "adb shell recovery --wipe_data - all to no avail in context of unbricking device
Code:
david@1000H:~/Downloads/src/adt-bundle-linux-x86/sdk/platform-tools$ adb logcat
- waiting for device -
--------- beginning of /dev/log/main
I/cm ( 105): Welcome to Android 2.3.7 / CyanogenMod-7-20121221-UNOFFICIAL-brandy
I/cm ( 106): _
[Code] .....
This is replicated on command and is constant. Replicated under slackware/linux and under win7-32bit-ultimate.
Recovery fails to boot so I need some sort of usb 'bridge' to interrupt the boot loop and invoke recovery - or flashall back onto device - but fastboot fails to identify the device/connectivity.

When I purchase something from the market, it hangs on authorising payment in the market app. In the meantime the payment is taken from my card, I get an email with receipt for the order, then the market will error with the message "You will receive email when your purchase is resolved". The app then seems to freeze in a state of permanent purchased but not delivered. 24 hours has passed and I can still hit the refund button and process a refund.
This happens both on my Xoom and SGS2 whether purchased from the market on the respective device or from the website. The entries on Google wallet appear to be the same as previous successful purchases just without the delivered/shipped detail on them, and the message this item will be automatically downloaded to your device is absent.
I'm stuck in hospital at the moment and my tablet and phone are all I have, so this really sucks.I have tried multiple payment methods with no success.

Putting jelly bean on nexus one
My Phone
Nexus One
CM7.2
hboot 0.35-0017
My Problem
Upgrading hboot. I've looked into the other posts. But in none (that i have looked at) they do "fastboot flash hboot". Maybe it's just the same?
I'm just following everything step by step (link)
Code:
$ fastboot flash hboot hboot_jellybean_260-8-168.nb0
sending 'hboot' (512 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.095s]
writing 'hboot'...
(bootloader) signature checking...
FAILED (remote: signature verify fail)
finished. total time: 0.219s
My bootloader is already unlocked. Might it have something to do with read/write permissions?

When I try to connect to my University's network , the my Galaxy S is able to connect JUST fine. However, when I open a browser it says the incoming certificate is not secure and then I have NO INTERNET on any page. It tries to redirect me to the login page for the network but fails to do so with a "communications error" and subsequent no internet access of any sort.
What the network is supposed to do is redirect me to the login page so that I can register the device to the network and login using my university account. My phone can't do that apparently and just sits connected to the network with NO INTERNET connectivity.
This is the university network and the instructions how to get on it for Android devices: [URL] .... I connect to it just fine but am UNABLE to get to that device registration/login page.
This is NOT just for my university. ANY public network which requires me to accept an "agreement" before it lets me have internet access, my phone KILLS ITSELF and CANNOT pull up the agreement page but instead tells me there is no internet. I'm SURE its a software problem or something with settings but can't figure out just what it is.
Just about the only networks I can connect to on Wi-Fi are home networks.

Basically I have an old iPod touch 2g on iOS 4.x and a Nexus 5.
I want to use my iPod as my media player but I'd like to be able to control music from my Nexus (only basic controls).
Is there an app on either device that allows this? I know tsk skipping can be done by some Bluetooth headphones so I'm hoping there's a way to make iOS accept command from my Nexus

I have been checking out these forums for a while, trolling the good advice. Today though I definitely need some of my own. My Evo is unprovoked and is running:
Build:147.651.0 CL195459 release-keys

I am very new to development on Android phones and started to use AndEngine today. Ran into a weird bug when I was following a basic tutorial. Whenever I run this tutorial example on my tablet it says that the app just fails to work. As far as I can tell the problem is that it doesn't even compile.

Have had no issues at all with the phone since i have owned it, but this morning it has decided it no longer wants to synchronize with my windows 7 ultimate installation. has been syncing fine daily for 2 weeks, i select the sync option on the handset, it sits for 1min "finding htc sync on your pc". then get error "unable to find htc sync on your pc. please make sure sync is installed and opend on your computer" etc, htc sync is running and open, and the device is not mounted by default. its not a usb connection error, as i can mount the disk drive and copy files etc. so suspect drivers are ok. i first made sure i was running latest version of the htc sync software, by downloading the latest and installing again. (i haven't removed and clean installed yet) 2.0.33. i also rebooted the device by removing the battery. i do also sync with an xp machine, so i will give this a try later, i suspect it will work, my money is on it being a PC issue rather than handset. although cannot think what has changed over the weekend to effect this.

I have upgraded my phone's images to Android 1.5 images (from http://www.htc.com/www/support/android/adp.html) Now when I try commands like adb remount, chmod, adb push etc I get "Operation not permitted" and "Permission denied" errors
I was able to give this command when I had 1.0 images flashed on my phone.
Has something related to permissions changed with Android 1.5?

I am in the process of trying to de-brand/flash my desire, but keep constantly coming up against the same problem, HTC sync. I open it on my PC then plug in my phone, set it to HTC sync and it tries to find htc sync on my PC, it always fails to do so, i have installed the latest HTC sync from HTC.com, tried changing USB ports but it always says that its unable to find htc sync on my PC..... I think this is the reason i am unable to make a gold card. So has anyone got any suggestions for me? I need this phone de-branding I cant believe what Orange UK have done to my phone!! The Internet icon is changed from the stock icon to their own orange world icon I want to be in a position to root my desire if HTC refuse to update to 2.2 without a gold card i cant do that.

When I try to install the android SDK it fails to install.
My OS is Windows XP. I just downloaded and installed Java JDK 1.6 Java -version from the command line returns: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask java version "1.6.0_17" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_17-b04) Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 14.3-b01, mixed mode, sharing)
My environment vars have: JAVA_HOME=c:progra~1javajdk1.6.0_11. I downloaded android-sdk-r04-windows.zip. I unziped it in V:AndroidInstall
When I go to the V:androindinstallandroid-sdk-windows> and type "SDK Install.exe" nothing happens...If I go this from graph
When I do this from a graphical file viewer I get a quick flash that looks like a command line window and nothing....
When I try to run android list targets from the tool directory I get:
Error: Error parsing the sdk.
Error: V:androindinstallandroid-sdk-windowsplatforms is missing.
Error: Unable to parse SDK content.
So the basic install setup is not happening.
Additional clues:
I have a G1 and Android 1.0 was running on this machine. (Almost a year ago) I've updated my G1 to 1.6 so I thought I'd update my SDK before starting new development.
When I tried to upgrade it tried and then died as the "directory was in use"
So I cleaned out all the android directories, rebooted and redownloaded everythign from scratch.
Now it won't run at all.
I've clearly got something in an unhappy state, but I've cleaned up all the directories and no remanants seem to be running I've rebooted....
