Sharing hotel wifi from one device.

I am going back to the same place we stayed in Mexico last year, the wifi is over £40 for 2 weeks access but that is per device. My laptop has been replaced by a tablet for when we go on holiday so I thought I would just use my phone to connect as the main reason is to stay in contact with work and the Samsung S3 works well with skype. The tech that will be coming with us are 2 smart phones, 2 tablets and a kindle. Is it possible for me to pay for my S3 to have wifi then share the connection with the other devices and still have access on the S3? All smart phones and tablets are running android so the kindle is the odd one out.

Cheers.

Barry.

What's taking up all my memory?

What's taking up all my memory?

---

I used to have a ton of internal space on my phone, but now barely have any. I don't have a crap load of apps. And the apps I do have downloaded aren't taking up much space. So what's filling up my phone and how do I clear it out?

How to Save ALL Data From Old Phone and Transfer to New?

Hi guys,
Just have a quick question regarding the data on my phone(Happy Easter BTW )
I am selling my phone tomorrow and I have a LOT of data on it which I need to transfer.
These are the things I wish to transfer-
-Contacts
-Old Messages and draft messages
-WiFi passwords
-Apps(lol obviously)
-App data
-Call logs
-Any other important things which I may have missed out.

I'm going to transfer my songs and videos manually via connecting my USB cable to the computer, I just don't want to mess up the other bits.
How do I transfer this to this to my computer so i can transfer it to my next phone? How do I transfer it to my next phone? Sorry if my questions are a bit nooby hehe.

Additional info-
My current phone is the Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo V (rooted) running ICS 4.0.4.
My next phone is most probably the Samsung Galaxy S3(International Version)
I have Titanium Backu(free Version).

Thank you for reading

Calendar Sync (Outook Exchange)

My Motorola Electrify M (and my Samsung Note 10.1) both only sync back to July 2013. Is this an Android thing, only partial calendar syncs for the past? Or is there a way to get it to sync with years past? thanks.

Unable to attach file - file size too large (Samsung S3 - AT&T)

Not satisfied with having to upload to YouTube and/or Dropbox or record video with major sub quality MMS limits, in order to send a simple 30 second video.
Problem- video-too large to send.
Example-iPhone 5 on ATT network can send example.
Lesser quality Android on TMobile can send example but you are telling me that I can't on my Samsung Galaxy 3S on AT&T? I just don't get it based on my two example above and beyond disappointed.
Any new APP that will allow conversion keeping the original quality and sending a sub quality 30-40 second video?

Thank you

Creating a re-usable API for creation / maintenance of Joomla accounts for use in Android App / Mobile Site development

I am using Joomla 1.5 and I am already aware of some of the difficulties associated with creating Joomla accounts from third party domains and scripts and authenticating with Joomla (logging in) from a third party domain / script.

My understanding is that the difficulty lies in the usage of a secret key to salt the MD5 hashed password for added security, and that this key resides in the configuration.php file.

That once Joomla 1.5 is installed, in configuration.php we already have a secret key in the form of:

var $secret = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';

Now assuming that we have access to the jos_users and jos_sessions table, is it not possible to create a simple PHP script (that given the Username, Password, MD5 hashed and salted using the secret key) that we could use to bypass Joomla completely and handle signup, login, logout and session data directly via the MySQL database without the need to touch the Joomla installation at all?

I would like to do this by creating an /api folder as a project and build on this platform.

I have much to learn I know, but I am hoping, logically, a reusable piece of code can be constructed.

If not,I understand that perhaps a simple plugin maybe needed to help facilitate these features using XML-RPC from within the Joomla Framework, however I would prefer to avoid this route.

Air Android GCM ANE MismatchSenderId when switching between air extensions

I'm trying to get Android GCM Push notifications to work in an AIR for Android project using Flash Builder.

I started off using Freshplanet's GCM ANE - https://github.com/freshplanet/ANE-Push-Notification.

I set it up with ease, and I receive notifications with no errors. But I couldn't seem to get the icons, sounds, vibration to work. So then I started looking for another ANE and discovered - http://myappsnippet.com/gcm/

I removed all of the Freshplanet code, setup everything the same exact way. Got a new registration ID and test it out using this php test script http://myflashlab.com/showcase/AIR_EXTENSIONS/GCM/

But I just get MismatchSenderId.

I've tried un-registering, completely uninstalling the app, then re-installing the app, then getting a new registration ID...and yet I still get MismatchSenderId.

I've even deleted my google project and got an entirely new GCM project ID and Server API key. I even tried with the Browser API key just for the heck of it. I have "Any IP allowed" and "Any referer allowed".

So after trying that a million times, I decided to uninstall and go back to the Freshplanet ANE and it works and sends just fine. No error. Maybe someone can think of something that's not getting properly cleared and how I might clear it? I don't understand why it would even matter to be honest.

I can't think of anything beyond un-installing the app and making a new Google API project...which didn't work at all. Maybe someone has experience with http://myappsnippet.com/gcm/ could share some insight? The dev just keeps saying it's on our end in the comments and assumes we dont have the right projectID or API key or we dont have Any IP allowed.

How to get variables from separate fragments using the same class

	In my Android app, I have an activity with 4 fragments. All the fragments have the same exact fields, so they are all inflated from the same xml file and have the same java class. However, I need to get the data stored in each of them because the user will be entering things in each one. So how would I be able to get the data if they all have the same class? asked 23 mins ago

instantiation of FragmentTransaction object not possble according to the compiler, Android

when I try to instantiate FragmentTransaction() I the the error message:

"can not instantiate the type FragmentTransaction"

in google Android reference it states:

Public Constructors

FragmentTransaction()

so if there is a constructor of FragmentTransaction() then it must be possible to do this,

 FragmentTransaction fragtransaction = new FragmentTransaction();

the question is WHY is this not possible?

            vc.setBatteryView(level, context);

        }else if(action.equals(Intent.ACTION_POWER_CONNECTED)){
            int charging = intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_PLUGGED, -1);
            vc.setAcusbView(charging, context);

int charging = intent.getIntExtra(BatteryManager.EXTRA_PLUGGED, -1);

this intent seems to be empty,charging get to be "-1" what is wrong for me?

android need scrollview inside a tablelayout to span over multiple columns

CHALLENGE!! ok so what i need is a row of components at the top, right below it is a scrollview with multiple rows, each row added dynamically with components that align with the components outside the scrollview. and right below the scrollview is another row of components that also align with the things above, or to say they're all in the same columns. Here's what i've tried so far: if i put the whole thing all in one tablelayout, the scrollview only takes up one column, so nothing outside of the scrollview aligns with whats inside it, and messing with the layout_width it will push the other columns outside the screen view which is no good, or just nothing aligns. i've tried putting a tablelayout inside the scrollview, but the columns of that tablelayout don't align with the columns of the tablelayout outside the scrollview. putting a linearLayout inside the scrollview doesn't help any of this either. my best hope is to put everything inside one tableLayout which is within the scrollView, and then set the top row and the bottom row so they don't scroll, is that possible? I can't find anything on how to do that. any other suggestions are appreciated. the reason for all this is because i need everything to align when the app is used on different sized screens and tablets, so i can't just position the components using dp and whatever. plz help!!
