Magic Jack Error... - HTC Amaze 4G

Hi to all....
I'm running Nightmare 1.6 and all is working perfect... The only problem I have is with the app Magic Jack.... I get this message: "The installation associated with your device is invalid". I can't setup my account or do anything... It use to work perfect on Nrgz... I tried to install it with Titanium Backup without any luck... This app is very important to me... Please, let me know if there's a fix for this or if you need more info to helps me!
Thanks in advance!

if your app has problems with your current rom settings.. then it could be that it doesn't work on your current rom... you have to keep in mind when the companies that make these apps don't make them for custom roms... so maybe some settings might be off in the build.prop or something else could be missing.. but i would suggest just trying another rom, or going back to stock.. or the rom that you had it previously working on

Oh well... Not the answer I was looking for but... I guess I'll live with it!!

Try a fresh install from the Play Store, don't install from TB

Yeah... I did that after a full whipe...! Still not going! Thanks for the idea!! It seems like It's specific to the rom... I guess it's just some tweak! But! I'm not good enough to tweak it!!

I wouldn't use the Magic Jack app anyways. It's a major battery hog. I had to uninstall it. I just have my MJ number forward to my cell phone

I use it for long distance calls... When I don't need it... I kill the app trough the app manager so, no battery drain!

I use Vonage. Just set your cell phone as an extension of your Vonage phone, and get all the features associated with your current Vonage plan (in my case, free global long distance over 3G/4G/Wifi)

[Q] Extremely high data usage on Rogers X10 after 2.1 upgrade

Has anyone else noticed that data usage on the Xperia x10 is through the roof on Rogers after upgrading to 2.1?
I have a 500MB plan and my Rogers account says that I have now used 884MB.
There is no way I have used that much data.
Nope, all good here on Rogers 2.1.
are you using a 3rd party app to keep an eye on the usage?

Not as of yet. Currently I have shut this phone off and gone back to my crappy Samsung A736. I will wait untill my billing period reverts and fire it back up again for testing. What app is best for data tracking?

I prefer PhoneUsage, and with it you can set daily limits, too
Check over your bill when it comes. I have a buddy with an x10 on Rogers who noticed a charge for something called "zap video". He found he was using between 1.5 GB per month until he unsubscribed from zap video.
I use my phone fairly heavily and usually use around 500 MB each month with my x10 on 2.1 with a lot of widgets that update from the web.

Im on generic 2.1 and have the same problem, some app is chowing my data when im not even using the phone...the only apps i know that can identify which app it is can only work on 2.2 upwards...any app u guys know that can monitor app per app on generic 2.1?
Try using the app, APNdroid, to stop data when not using it. It has a quick on/off toggle widget for the homescreen.

I think you are wrong. Droidwall requires iptables firewall to work correctly. You may have had it on your phone, but it wasn't working. Try setting rules and you'll see.

yes i have got that app APNDROID but i dont like to use it coz i use whatsapp which needs my phone to access internet.
The intresting thing is that when i have switched off internet access with the APN app there is a sinc sign on my top toolbar of my phone which means that there is an app continously trying to sync with something, the problem is that i cannot identify witch app it is.

FreeX10-Beta 4 problems

I can confirm the following problems with FreeX10-Bet4:
Battery drains incredibly fast, but not always. Yesterday morning the phone got hot and I could almost see battery indicator drop. However, in the afternoon, after a reboot and once I have charged the phone, it was not that bad. At least not hot. No change of apps, environment, whatever.
Problems with BT headset. At least with mediasound. Sometimes the headset connects but most often not. The phone indicates the headset is connected (both phone and media) but mediasound goes to the loudspeaker.
(I have to post this thread since I'm not yet allowed to post to the development thread. The new policy, sorry for this.....)

You are not the only one with this problems.. so you didn't have to make a thread for this. Read the official thread and find the answers there
I did read the official developer link and I did not really ask for help on this . My intention was to add some more info for troubleshooting, since I did not find anyone else stating problem vary over time. Since I work with system development myself I normally find all additional info on problems interesting since this could help me pinpointing the root cause.
Maybe XDA should consider open special threads just to report problems and not asking specifically for support. Now everything is mixed up, and this must be quite frustrating for the ones actually working with ROM development.
Yeah, new forum policy....
I have some points too. Maybe someone can give a hint.
I have some trouble with the audio through the headphone jack. The sound is kind of broken like a wrong DSP filter is set.
3G WatchDog does not count the traffic for each app but I am not sure if thats a problem of FreeX10 or 3G WatchDog himself.

Hi
Please excuse my Japanglish, as well.
I had a perfectly working X10i, and installed FreeX10 Beta4. I preferred stock 2.1 rom so I tried to restore the back up I createded Xrecovery. Then it went something wrong, and I get this endless "force close" message saying system failed starting when I start up. So I cannot get to the programs now which can restore the system. No matter how many times I reboot it is same. Is my phone so called "Bricked"? Is there any way I can start restoring program by pushing bottoms when I boot up before Free X10 kicks in? This is a really costly error.

Data monitor from play store by Sony?
Yes
Touch the bell icons at the usage bar, you'll find a pop-up editor for data alert.
If you want to know your usage, android has nothing to do with it, contact your service provider.

Ah and can't be edited indeed. Only app that I have seen that allows it, was Traffic Statistics(or sth like that).

For some reason, I have a bad feeling that the app might miss some data movements indeed...Even though I cannot confirm this due to ROM changing at beginning of month and not having all data.

[Q] Gmate+ With Samsung Galaxy Player 5.0

Hello,
I'm considering the idea of getting a Gmate+(http://www.skyroam.com/) for my SGP5 but I have one remaining question. Ive searched all over the internet and couldnt find any answers so it must not be a big problem.
1. Will the gmate app notify me of sms/calls on my SGP or will i always have to go by the vibration on the gmate?
2. If the app wont notify me...is there a toggle switch or someway to disable the vibration on the gmate when i dont want it?
Because if the app will notify me then I'll just be getting the plain Gmate without vibration.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT: Nevermind...i found my answer soon after posting haha
Number 27 at http://www.skyroam.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=83&..
As an owner of the Gmate+, I'd be happy to answer any questions you had about it, as I've had mine for some time. The app is a bit rough around the edges, it doesn't have nearly the polish of the android apps for phone and testing, but they work. Texts and calls pop up notifications on the SGP, with calls acting like a standard phone call on a smartphone, taking over the lock screen, etc. it also causes the SGP to vibrate or make whatever noise it makes for a notification. The GMate also vibrates, but it is loud, and quite piercing, as the device is very small and light. this, however, can be turned off. There are a number of checkboxes which dictate when the Gmate will vibrate, such as a connection, incoming call, texts, etc. One other thing is that I've never been able to get the web browsing to work, and the more I look into it, the more it looks like a bug with samsung devices on Gingerbread, so having an ICS rom might fix that, the other thing you need to keep in mind is that the app says it's not compatible for a reason, it will disconnect every 5 minutes or so, when the device goes to sleep and shuts bluetooth off, but at app I found called Bluetooth KeepAlive fixed that, even though it was a couple bucks, I think it was worth it.
Sorry for the wall of text, but in summary I guess is that the Gmate works and is a good device, but it's a little rough in how it's used and there are a few hoops you have to jump through to get it to work.
Hi,
Thanks that helped a lot silentdoh!
So where are the options for vibration? Are they in the app i assume? Because i looked all through the settings and didnt find them.
And im on cm10.1 and i got the app from the play store so it was all compatible it said
So do u think the Plus is worth it for the vibration or not?

I believe the app shows the option when you have the Gmate+ connected, because why have the option when the other device doesn't support it? When I got it, there was no difference in price, it really depends if you can deal with an annoying vibration noise, most of the time I just turn it off, but it is nice to know when it's connected if you can't look at your SGP. I personally don't use mine anymore, but I still love it as a backup, one thing to note is that it is not compatible with 3G speeds, so you'll be using 2G the whole time, and that it uses a standard sim card, not a microsim. Also, the signal is not too great, I sometimes have issues with service unless I take the Gmate out with my phone as I answer or send a text, not sure if there's any way to fix that.
Thanks for all your information. It helped me a lot to decide what to do. As of now im gonna hold off and just see how everything works on my new dumbphone.
Would it at all be possible to port this feature(http://support-us.samsung.com/spsn/detail.jsp?ctg_id=209&sub_ctg_id=&live_id=8) to the galaxy player 5? For me it would be an OK alternative to the Gmate.
Would this be a simple ROM port or would it require more then that?
I would port the ROM myself if i knew it would work, but right now I use my Galaxy for work and and everyday personal stuff and cm10.1 doesnt backup in cwmSso im not going to try until i get more opinions and the feature would be really nice on cm10.1! Any thoughts?

I was talking about pairing my Samsung Flight II dumphone with my SGP5.0 so that any calls i get on my phone wil come to my GP. This way i could answer calls with my player without having to take out my dumbphone.
If you have an apk for that...i would sure like to have it.
Does anyone know anything about this device? http://www.simore.ch/en/two_sim_cards_in_one_mobile/dual_sim_card_dualblue.php#11
It looks like a healthy alternative to the gmate cause it looks like its been more kept up to date then the Gmate. They have videos of it working on the S4 and the HTC One even

[APP][Rooted]Ril Control[4.4+][Oreo]

I'm sure many of you are already using @kessaras great AOSCP Oreo Rom!
One small current issue is the ril-daemon sometimes needs to be stopped and started to make your sim card and cellular work properly. In the past, you could just reboot, or stop and start the daemon from the command line. But now you can just tap a button! That's right, just a simple, easy to use app that stops or starts the ril-daemon when you tap the buttons.
This app requires root permission!
This app is open source, licensed under the Apache 2.0, and you can check out the source code here:
https://github.com/alaskalinuxuser/app_ril_control
You can download the app here:
https://github.com/alaskalinuxuser/app_ril_control/blob/master/app/Ril_Control.apk
Get it on the Play Store!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alaskalinuxuser.rilcontrol
Reserved for Change log.
great tool ! Thank you ! it will make easier this ril restart for everyone
Thank you very much, this is very useful!
I'm using it quite often. It's very useful for me. Thank you so much!

Just wondering if the change is supposed to be instant when I press the button. I have a newly unlocked H812 and it takes sometime ten tries to get it to work
Hey it is possible to add a function like automatic restart the ril-daemon with different time settings?
Like restart it ervery 24 or 15 hours.
I have problems with my G4 on LOS 14 Roms the ril stop working after different hours.
Hey @AlaskaLinuxUser I am curious, can this be used for newer ROMs? I am using LineageOS 15.1 and experience mobile data drop off all the time. I would like to use this app (Google Play pulled the app, I used your direct download link) to see if it would help.

Hmm, I don't want to get in over my ski-tips here.
I am new to rooting. I was tired of an older phone with a poorly performing operating system, so I travelled down this road to revitalizing my phone - without spending over a thousand dollars for a new one.
I do not know what busybox or toybox is, or if it is incorporated into this LineageOS operating system v15.1 for the Samsung SM-N910V.
I do have root, managed by Magisk Manager v17.3, and use TWRP v1.21 build 34 for recovery.
I do not have a recent backup or anything like that, as I am a noob and use this phone as a daily driver. I don't want to really screw anything up by installing this app. Do you think there could be incompatibilities that could cause issues? I am trying to avoid continually backing up all of my data and files to my computer, as it takes forever. (yeah, I realize that developing new stuff is a gamble, but I am trying to find stable things already built )
The only issue with this ROM is RIL instability when switching towers, and going into buildings that forces the data connection to go from LTE to 3G, and that is when I lose data connection. I have to restart the phone every time, and I end up having to do this a lot while driving and travelling for work.
What are your thoughts?

This app will not cause you any trouble. It will either work, or will not work, but will have no detrimental affect on your phone or files. I'd recommend you give it a try. But it is always up to you.

I took the leap, and while out and about today I installed RIL Control. And guess what, it worked! I was able to kick the data connection in the butt and it reconnected.
However, I have a big problem now. I got home, and turned on wifi, and it doesn't work now. The toggle switch moves to on, and then right back to off. I cannot get the wifi to turn on! I restarted the phone, and it still won't turn on. Bluetooth works just fine.
So, now what happened? How do I get wifi to work again? Honestly, I need wifi more than data connection at this point.

Odd. The commands in the app only stop/start ril-daemon, which has nothing to do with WiFi. WiFi is wpa-supp. So I'm not sure if that is connected to my app. However, if that is the only thing you installed/changed, then I guess that would have to be it.
I'm guessing restarting the phone didn't work? :fingers-crossed:
You could always uninstall my app. But if that doesn't work, I guess you would have to load a backup of your phone. I just don't see how my app is affecting the WiFi.

Thanks for the help.
Correct, installing and using your app is the only change I have made, and I have never had a wifi issue in the month or so that I have been running this custom ROM.
Restarting the phone 4 times did not work. I may have panicked haha.
I did boot into TWRP and wipe the Dalvik cache.. and whala, I booted back up and the wifi worked.
I'm now afraid to try your app again when I am out and about, but maybe I should to see if this same condition happens again? What do you think?

Well, if you have a good backup, and since wiping dalvik and cache worked before, it might be worth a try. Was the WiFi on when you used my app? As always, if you are worried about it, you should play it safe. :good:
