    Thread Permission denied log?

    Hello all. I have a Nomu S10 phone running Android 6.0.1. Periodically when I use my phone (or even when it's idle on my desk), I get a pop-up saying something along the lines of "Permission denied. You can change the settings in Settings -> Apps." It's especially obnoxious when I'm texting...

    Thread Software update PDA and CSC?

    Hello all! I have a rooted Galaxy Tab 4 (full details at bottom). Since I'm rooted, I can't do software updates from my tablet so I just said "Eh, whatever" and didn't worry too much about updating. However I recently downloaded Samsung Kies3 to my PC and much to my surprise, it says there's...

    Thread [Q] How to disable lock screen weather

    Hello all, I have a frustrating issue. I cannot seem to purge the weather widget from my lock screen. It's some sort of widget that auto-rotates the screen to portrait and provides a slide-out tab that displays my local weather (screenshot attached is with the tab slid out). It only started...

    Post Can't update weather setting (bug?)

    I have not solved this problem, unfortunately. I just have to live with it.

    Thread Can't update weather setting (bug?)

    Hello all. I'm trying to configure my weather widget to use a specific city instead of current location. I'm under the impression that if I manually set the location instead of using current location, weather will update without location settings being turned on (correct me if I'm wrong)...

    Post Looking for PDF reader with particular features

    Shortly after I posted this, I found Xodo PDF Reader and I must say, I'm awfully impressed so far. It has all the features I need except for the office suite and is surprisingly robust for a free app with no in-app purchases. That's right, you get every feature right out of the gate. Maybe...

    Thread Looking for PDF reader with particular features

    Hello all. This isn't a question about the "best" PDF reader as that is a dead horse which has been beaten over and over again. I'm looking for a PDF reader with specific features. Here is what I need: * Annotation: highlight, underline, text box, arrows (and ability to change colors of all...

    Thread [Q] Countdown timer one month off

    So I have a date countdown set up, but for some reason, it's exactly one month off. Here's the Rich Text I have to determine the target date: #D07312015Rd# Oddly enough, it seemed to work fine up until recently. The date on my device is set correctly, but of course we're in the beginning of...

    Post [Q] yet another calendar question

    I'm not sure I understand your intent correctly, but it sounds like you're just making a calendar with a list of the upcoming events, is that correct? I have a widget for that. I can't attach the .zw file (and for some reason, can't make a zip - I'll have to look into that), but here's my...

    Post [Q] Factory wipe a rooted tablet without touchscreen

    Doh. I had to be on the TWRP page for it to be recognized. I feel dumb. But now I can't "flash" or "erase" because it just hangs on <waiting for device> It detects in "adb devices," but not "fastboot devices" so there's that, too. EDIT: Okay, I just had the wrong USB driver installed. I...

    Thread [Q] Factory wipe a rooted tablet without touchscreen

    I have a rooted Asus Transformer TF300T with TWRP. The screen is busted so I can't factory reset within Android. If I go into the bootloader and select Wipe Data, it just takes me to the TWRP screen, which I can't use because of the whole screen issue. I have fastboot installed, but when I...

    Post [Q] What is stored in "app data"?

    It's a tablet, so no call logs. Same goes for contacts. I'm not going to delete all app data for all apps, but for things like Facebook, I see no reason why it needs to store so much data. However in talking about contacts, maybe it's storing the pictures of people on my friends list? Or...

    Post [Q] What is stored in "app data"?

    So I guess how does that example differ from the app cache? Facebook stores all the images I see? That seems... dumb. What about Skype then? Same thing?

    Thread [Q] What is stored in "app data"?

    So I'm doing some cleaning on my tablet and I've noticed that a number of my apps have a large amount of data (not cache). I've listed some examples below. What exactly is stored in "app data"? I know it contains stuff like login credentials and settings, but that doesn't exactly tell me why...
