[General] help with NET10's LG Optimus Dynamic


help with NET10's LG Optimus Dynamic



hi, i'm new to the android world... so prepare yourself. lol

is it possible to "Root" an android phone running android 2.3.6 (specifically the LG Optimus Dynamic ) and still be supported by "NET10Wireless"?
the reason being that, i would like to correct the devices tendency to store all the apps/music/exc. in the system memory instead of internal memory or sd storage.

if this is unnecessary, could someone explain to me how to move apps between the system to internal memory?
i know how to move files to the sd card using the default app manager, but i see no option to move anything from system memory to internal memory.

thank you for your help on advance!!!

[General] Handcent SMS and other recipients of a message


Handcent SMS and other recipients of a message



Does anyone know how to see the *other* recipients of a group text message I receive in Handcent? Example: I receive a text in Handcent to my Note 2 phone. I can see the text message, and above that (in the message's header) it shows the first two recipients, then ",....." indicating there are MORE people who have received the message. Is there any way I can see a complete list of the recipients?

[General] Google Play Store is not working


Google Play Store is not working



Hello!

I'm new to this forum. I have recently received a Daxian XY100S and can't make Google Play Store to work. When it opens, it closes in a second. I can't sign in to Chrome and YouTube. I rooted it and I removed all the Chinese apps and it is still not working. Download Manager has been always enabled.

What else can I do to make it work?

There have been installed an alternative chinese store app, I thought it were conflicting with Play Store but I uninstalled it and it is still not good.

Do you have any idea?

Greetings from Hungary

[General] Internet cannot be switched on automatically/manually after back from abroad/roaming


Internet cannot be switched on automatically/manually after back from abroad/roaming



Hello all,

I have a very simple, but specific problem. However I believe that it may also puzzle other users:

I have switched off roaming internet (both on the phone and by the provider), since I'm travelling a lot between Austria (my home country) and Germany. That works fine. I helped me to avoid spending a fortune on data roaming.

However my phone does not reconnect to the internet after coming back to my home country. I have not found any resolution besides to restart the phone to get a data connection again. Phone connections work as expected.

This problem get's more and more annoying, because there are more and more interesting internet services for driving, e.g. looking for the cheapest gas station via internet.

I have googled a lot, but did neither find a specific description not a solution for this problem.
I have the feeling that the problem is rooting in a bug in Android.

My Phone Details:

Phone: Samsung Note
Android Version: 4.1.2 (but the problem existed already in 4.0.x and in the original delivered OS 3.x)
Telecom Provider: Telering (Austria)
Data Roaming disabled both on Phone and in the user settings by the provider

I experienced the problem mainly by traveling to Germany, but I believe the problem also exists coming back from Italy and other country.

Has anybody experienced the same problem?

Is there a better solution than restarting the phone?

Thank you for your kind help

Wallenstein

Open Google Play, tap the menu button, select Settings, then make sure "Auto-add widgets" is checked. It's a bit of a misnomer--"widgets" should be "shortcuts."

[android help] AsyncTask with a ProgressDialog and Progress Bar


AsyncTask with a ProgressDialog and Progress Bar



I am attempting to use AsyncTask to load a file of determinate length. My AsyncTask looks something like this:



protected void onPreExecute() {
dialog = ProgressDialog.show(MyActivity.this, null, "Loading", false);
}


protected void onProgressUpdate(Integer... values) {
if (values.length == 2) {
dialog.setProgress(values[0]);
dialog.setMax(values[1]);
}
}


in my doInBackground() implementation I call publishProgress(bytesSoFar, maxBytes); inside my loading loop and in the onPostExecute() I call dialog.dismiss().


However, I can't get the ProgressDialog to show anything but an indeterminate spinner. I want to see a horizontal progress bar that shows the progress as the loading happens. I've debugged and can see that onProgressUpdate() gets called with sane values and that the dialog's methods are getting called.

[android help] E-mail attachment through intent using `mailto:` scheme


E-mail attachment through intent using `mailto:` scheme



This seems to be fixed in API 17 (Jelly Bean 2), at least on my Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 4.


Specifically:



Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_SENDTO, Uri.fromParts("mailto", "email@me.com", null));
intent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_STREAM, Uri.fromFile(attachmentFile));
startActivity(Intent.createChooser(intent, "Send email..."));


This does NOT work in Froyo or Gingerbread. I'm not sure at what point it started working.


Maybe someone else has some details for other API levels?


I would suggest for pre-API17 using ACTION_SEND, otherwise ACTION_SENDTO.

I am working on an application which uses canvas. The user should be allowed to draw something on the canvas and then be able to move it. For example, if a user draws an arrow to point at something, he should then be able to move it to point at something else.
