General :: How To Determine Exact Version Of Faked Android OS
Oct 22, 2013
I just bought a new new Android smartphone, and electronically and mechanically, it works very well, and gives a nice appearance. It was sold as having Android 4.1.1, and About Phone -> Android version displays 4.1.2. So in this version range, we are talking about Jelly Bean, right?
Software version in the 'About Phone' begins with, '6820_2.3.5_' but whether or not this identifies the OS version, or means something else ...
I'd like to know if there's any way of telling exactly which version of Gingerbread my phone is running? This is useful in deciding which apps should or should not, be installed.
The phone has been rooted, has busybox and a terminal application installed, how to identify the OS that requires this capability.

Is there an app where you can hold the Droid to a sound and it talls you the exact pitch in Hertz? Whether I sing to it or dog whistle to it or play piccolo to it or play a digital sound from my computer onto it?

I wanna know if there is anyway to determine not through the packages, but through applications the version of an application which isn't the current application.
let's say right now i am in the scope of app A. and i wanna run an activity from app B. i wanna check before the version code of app B.

I have an application that's offered in and outside of the MarketPlace.Is there a way of determining from within the code where the application came from? I've got a few indirect methods
1) I could simply infer from whether they have "Allow installation of non-Market applications" ticked.
2) Or I could just make separate builds and make it explicit in the code.

How to make exact copy of my device on Android SDK so that I can test and develop roms on it? I found a guide on xda but it shows how to emulate Xperia X10 and it needs an add-on for X10. But there is no add-on for my device, so how can I emulate it manually? I have a Karbonn ST10 tablet.

I'm getting beat down with GTALK_ASYNC_CONN wakelocks while on my work's AP.... the specific WL is :gtalk_async_conn com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice.androidendpoint.... something everyone has been complaining about recently, and I never saw it until recently (now that I got up to 4.1.2 a short time ago.
Is there a way to determine exactly who is generating that WL? It's not related to GTALK, as the WL name incorrectly leads us to believe, but it must be google, and I only see it fire when the Wi-Fi is connected and in use. It's non-existent when I'm on Mobile. It comes and goes, sometimes chugging wake time like its cheap beer, othertimes it's dormant, and I haven't been able to figure out who is using it based on the context of when it occurs.
There HAS to be a log or something somewhere that says process X is responsible.

When I get handed a new and previously unknown Android device (typically from a minor player), is there a way to figure out which components it is made of, such as the SoC, the flash chip, the RAM type etc. (Assuming noone else has posted the info of cause)?
In other words are there any tools (other than a screwdriver) for finding this out directly from the device, preferably without rooting (as some of this info may be needed to pick a rooting method...)?

Android version = 4.1.1
Baseband version = I9300XXLH1
Kernel Version =

I have an HTC Rezound running Android 4.0.1, and I notice that it very rarely enters sleep mode, even after the screen has been off for a very long period of time.
Is there any way I can determine which apps are keeping the phone from entering sleep mode? ..or which app is waking it up constantly, whichever the case may actually be?
I have tried doing a logcat and just let it run for a while after turning the screen off, but I'm not quite sure what to look for in the results..

I can't figure what is exactly meaning the Partition Sdcard values in CWM.
I have an i9000, with 8Gb of flash. Some are system reserved. Available is around 6Gb.
When i run CWM, i can partition my sdcard, but i don't see what means the possible values (for 256 to 4096).
This is obviously not ruling the space left on /sdcard mountpoint (i partition to 2048, i still have nearly 6Gb available)... So what exactly means partition sdcard from CWM ??
i can't find an answer, and i dislike, when flashing rom, following commands i don't really master (generally a partition SD 2048 / SWAP 256 or SWAP 0).

I have a background image (full screen) and want to create an exact layout, which fits this background-image. The buttons and labels have to be at an exact place of the background-image. How can I do this? The absolute-layout is deprecated. If I use relative layout, I can use margins, but the positions differ from device to device. The best thing is if I could set the exact positions as percent of the total view size. How can I do this?

I was hoping someone could give me instructions to obtain the *exact *source code for the current SDK. What I have so far is as discussed here; http://androidforums.com/android-developers/1045-source-code-android- By using commands such as; repo init -u git://android . git . kernel .org/platform/manifest.git -b android-sdk-1.5_r3 jar cvf ../android-src.jar -C core/java . etc. my issue is that the source is still inconsistent, some extra methods are available and some are not. For example, I want to make a progress bar with two sliders (To select a range) but the version of Progress bar I have; http:// android .git.kernel.org/?=platform/frameworks /base.git;a=blob ;.http://android .git.kernel .org/?p=platform/ frameworks /base.git;a=blob;> I cannot mimic (as an initial implementation), despite using the same package and extending View I do not have access to 'mMinWidth' for example. In addition the progress bar uses methods of the class StateList Drawable which are not available in this SDK (e.g. getStateSet(int i)). It's obvious that there's an inconsistency between the source I have and that which was compiled into the android SDK but I don't know why given my GIT repo commands. Can someone link to the version of ProgressBar which was shipped with android-sdk-1.5_r3? Has anyone managed to get the branch which maps directly to this release? This might well be due my inexperience with Git, please let me know if anyone has this set up correctly and I will try again. I seem, in all honesty, to have the head revision still.

What's the best way to determine why all of a sudden my battery is losing it's charge more quickly than normal? I checked battery usage in settings and everything seems reasonable. I can't think of a newly installed app that might be causing it. (HTC Rezound, ICS) ADR6425LVW

I'd like to have Tasker read incoming texts to me while in the car but pause and playing media first. I have a profile setup to trigger the task and everything work, except the part about pausing the media. As it is now it just read the text over the top of the media and neither are understandable.
I've searched and I can't seem to find a reliable way to determine if media is playing, pause it, then play it again after the text is read. I'm familiar with %MTRACK, but that only works with some players (none of which I use). I typically use PlayerPro and BeyondPod.

How to find the exact pixel center of a String? I need this for drawing onto a canvas.
float ty = ((-mTextBrush.ascent() + mTextBrush.descent())/4);
Add this value to the y axis when you draw.
ie.
canvas.drawText(text, cx, cy+ty, mTextBrush);
Where cx and xy are your center points

I'm asking this because HBO Nordic which recently became available in Scandinavia won't allow me to use my rooted ASUS TF101 for streaming. The HBO Nordic app says "Service is not available on this device because it has been modified."
I'm thinking one of two options might work:
1. Revoke one or more permissions
2. Modify build.prop
Permissions list can be seen here: [URL] .....
I should add that HBO Nordic works on my Galaxy Nexus which is currently unrooted but has an unlocked bootloader.

As said in the Android Reference, the method getAccuracy() of android.location: "Returns the accuracy of the fix in meters. If hasAccuracy() is false, 0.0 is returned." But what does that mean exactly? The diameter or the radius? The Circular Error Probable (CEP), the 95-percentile or something else? I hope they are of the same type in GPS and GSM positioning. Does somebody know where these information are given into the system? As far as i know, are the GSM coordinates returned by a hidden Google API over a Web Service. So no chance to see an exact calculation. But where is the Accuracy of GPS calculated. I thought the GPS receiver only returns a dimensionless DOP value. And with Android 1.5 its not posible to read the NMEA sentences directly.

Is there XML attribute that does the exact opposite of android:dependency? What I would like the dependent preference to be enabled when the other is not checked and disabled when it is checked. Maybe the issue isn't with android:dependency maybe there is an xml attribute that I can add to make the default for that preference disabled and then android:dependency will toggle it the opposite way like I want. I tried setting android:enabled="false" in the preference and it disables it like I want but even with it being dependent on the other preference it didn't enable it like I had hoped.

I couldn't find a thread that addressed this, sorry if it's been asked before!Here is my question: Is there a way to display the EXACT time of a call or text on the Ally and not just have it say 'yesterday' or '2 hours ago', etc. I can't find it in any settings and I can't seem to find an app for it. With my job I have to fill out a very detailed field report requiring exact times I spoke with someone, did something, etc. and I used to use my text messages as a way to keep record of this. If there is a way to do this it could make my life much easier!Disclaimer: After reading several posts here I see that I'm pretty technologically impaired in the span of droid users, so go on and treat me like I don't understand you're computer lingo because you're probably right. No offense will be taken!

I could display the box around the URL link, but if my URL link spans over more than one line, then my code shows the one rectangle on 1 line. But, in android-browser, in the same case, whole URL (still if it spans over multiple lines) gets surrounded by single large rectangle. I am not getting how this is achieved in android ?
Can anyone please give me some pointer on this ? I could not able to find out exact code for this in android-webkit code.

I was just wandering if there is a shortcut to find the exact battery level on my Desire? I know you can go the 4636 route but thats slightly long winded, and most battery widgets/notification bar icons actually seem to use battery (i have properly tested this!). I know you can go into 'about phone' and do it that way but that just shows it as a series of bars, not as an actual figure.
