I just wanted to know if there is any app that would work without wifi or 3g network to find a lost phone? I was thinking that if a person intentionally steals a phone, he/she will immediately turn off the phone making find my phone as useless as anything .

I have a SGS3 that I have rooted and running CM10...
stock I had 'S Beam' which was awesome. because my gf has sgs3 as well, and i was able to send her videos directly from my phone..
but now that I'm running CM10 and jellybean, I lost this feature on my end
I looked at the app store with keyword 'wifi direct' and came up empty handed.
I try to find the x and y co-ordinates through gps, wifi, and networking but i have problem in running the problem, at output it shows FORCE TO CLOSE error, then i paste the log cat error, as below.
Code:
package com.location;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.location.Criteria;

Any recommendations for a similar app that turns the screen off but does NOT lock it.
On Windows 7 laptop. Htc sync is installed, but so far out of about 30 tries i have only managed to connect the phone once. I'm hoping to root my phone, but am not gonna have any luck if they can't bloody see each other!
View 6 Replies View RelatedNot sure if this is the right place to post this up, but I figure there's going to be a lot of you coming from other non-Android handsets. I've got a TP 2 - good l' WinMo. I've grown pretty attached to it and there's a couple of apps I'm -really- going to miss and I hope a couple of you know of some good alternatives:
GPS Speedo(.exe) - Just a single exe file, all it does is make the whole screen white, with large black numbers in the center. It used the phone's GPS to measure your speed (in MPH or KPH). Any Android equivalent?
OBD Gauge - Data logging of OBD II cars via serial or, in my case, blue tooth. I used this to data log my car, or when I'm working on tuning other vehicles. This one is kinda indispensable. I'm really hoping someone will know of an alternative to this one. It connects over blue tooth by connecting via BT serial port.
G Alarm - Excellent alarm app. I use my phone to wake me up every morning. This will re-play alarms after 10 minutes, unless totally dismissed, even require a simple math problem to dismiss/snooze the alarm. I don't have such high requirements I just want a good morning alarm clock style app that will wake me up every morning.
My current phone is a Behold, KRZR before that, and a Kyocera SOHO before that. I really like the Behold, it is by far the best phone I have used to date. But it is time for a change. I'm looking for a touchscreen phone with WiFi and Android and I don't want a data plan.
Requirements:
1) Touchscreen (no slider)
2) Android, preferably 2.2 or confirmed update in pipeline (or ability to root & update)
3) No Data Plan (I'm not willing to pay $30/month for something I won't often use)
4) WiFi
5) Fast processor, 800mhz or faster
6) Camera w/flash Possibilities:
1) Because I don't want data, I don't need 3g, so I could run an AT&T phone.
2) I am willing to root a phone, as long as the process is reasonably well explained in a how-to.
3) I am not looking for a new contract and am willing to pay outright for the phone.
4) If there is a phone that will work, I am willing to consider a phone not sold in the US, if I can get it on eBay or elsewhere. Remember, no data, no 3g, so that might open a few doors.
In my app, I get the name of the person calling from the contacts database and read it out. A user contacted me about a number in the format 123-456-7890 which doesn't work. I've tested this myself and can't see why it wouldn't work. The full code I'm using is available here, but the relevant part is below: Code...
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy screen fell on a hard concrete floor and cracked, but i felt lucky because i thought its just the bottom 1/10th part of the phone broke.. Its a Nexus 4 I cant press the Back, Home, and the switch app soft buttons and also i cant press probably a few other pixels (I cant type SMS because i cant click on the bottom row and so keyboard wont appear).I think there should be some setting somewhere to fool around android to say that my screen size = 9/10th of the current screen size (the bottom 1/10th of the screen should be blank.) If there is any such app or any setting in any custom ROM. Tried google, cant seem to find the proper keywords.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI'm looking for an app manager that will allow me to organize and push install apps to my android device. Google Play's web interface doesn't really allow me to do anything but manually scroll through the hundreds of apps that I have installed over the years...very time consuming. I'm familiar with TiBu and friends, but that's not really what I'm after right now. I'd like to be able to group my apps and install those groups to my phone. I'm pretty much tied to Google Play, I know there are alternative stores but I'm not wanting to go that route right now.
Just being able to sort apps into folders and install folders all through a web app (or PC/MAC GUI) would work.

I am not finding CWM Recovery for my Karbonn A5+ mobile. I have found the page for Karbonn A5 and A7: [URL] ....
The A5 in this page looks exactly as my A5+, so I thought its drivers and CWM recovery will work for it. But I realized following:
The page says that A5 is rebranded as K619 while A7 as K650. When I connect my A5+ in debug mode and run adb devices, it is detected as K650!!! I found CWM and drivers for A5 from the links given in the description of the youtube videos on this page: [URL] .....
The drivers seem to work correctly since am able to run adb commands. However the CWM doesnt work. It sticks at red screen.
I have also tried the CWM from the link given on this page: [URL] ..... since it says it is for Karbonn A7 , A7 plus, K-touch W650,Mobiistar Touch S01, but in this case red recovery screen flashed for a moment and went blank. In both cases I did not get CWM Recovery menu.
I am fed up finding proper CWM for A5+. My device have 1GHz processor and somewhat 430 MB RAM.
Looking for proper CWM or guide me how can I develop custom CWM for this.
I have been searching for a launcher that allows me to change the grid sizes per screen but so far i have not found one.
