I use an app called download all files(icon is blue box with white down arrow in market and free) that is an "auto app" that runs with your browser. So maybe if u get that and view the webpage gmail u can download any gmail attach. It may work with gmail app also bit I don't know. Worth a shot.
Edit::I know it comes up as a choice for what to use to download attachment when in gmail app. And it supports a lot of file types..try it out..I love having this small app take care of my download so I don't need another file manager that takes up cpu and ram running just to download files that I want
I will try later on, thanks

I have the very same question.
Don´t know why google put such limitations in gmail app. But Download all files did not help.
Anyone have another sugestion?
Thanks in advance!
Search market for download Gmail attachment.
I saw one before. Might have been downdroid.
But download all files SHOULD work. At least it does for me ...
Go to the market and search for "Download All Files." This app lets you download anything through the browser and Gmail. It's worked for me so far.
Echo echo echo lol
I have been using download all files ever since I rooted my phone. I didn't want to have to download astro just to download roms and found that app.
I have used it multiple times to save attachment from my Gmail also.
Pretty sure you just long press the attachment after you have "download all files" app installed.
it works on its own. You do not need to open it at all. Its is like a plug in/add on type of app
Download all files really don´t work for me. Don´t know why.
The app is installed, I long press the file in gmail and nothing happens.
Still looking for another one.
Hey guys, I wrote an article over on our site that shows a quick walkthrough on how to display full desktop websites permanently on Chrome for Android Mobile so that you don't have to visit the mobile site, then hit "request desktop site" button any more. Considering Chrome is an awesome browser with full sync, and works very well on Jelly Bean, this might be of use to all of you. I know I was sick of having to constantly click the button.
Article: How To – Permanently Have Desktop Mode on Chrome Mobile for Android
Rooted device Instructions:
Copy the chrome-command-line.txt file attached to the post, then paste it into /data/local/ making sure to set the permissions to 755 and to remove the '.txt' file extension.
Flashable .zip, for the lazy:
You should know how to use this by now. Grab the attached ChromeDE.zip provided by XDA user djmcnz and flash away! (Thanks!) You can also drop him a thanks by visiting a post of his later in this thread.
ADB Instructions (for non-rooted devices):
Place the chrome-command-line.txt file in the root directory of your PC and rename it to 'chrome-command-line', then make sure your device is connected to your computer. When connected, issue this command:
Code:
adb push /chrome-command-line /data/local/chrome-command-line
You can also set the path on your computer where the file is located by replacing the first '/chrome-command-line' with the file location.
Cheers! Hopefully we'll see a better implementation of this in the upcoming 4.2 release.
Very useful. Instructions were clear and precise, Nice one!
thank you very well apreciated is there any chance you can write 1 on how to make it more stable?

I'm using solid explorer off of the market (a free file manager) which allows you to set the permissions of a file. In solid explorer, they are set by ticking the correct boxes, whereas in other applications they are typed in by number..

Good tip but it can be improved.
You don't need root to write to /data/local/ so in theory this trick will work for everyone, might pay to update the article.

No? When testing with a Nexus 7 unrooted you cannot navigate to Data/local through Solid Explorer. Naturally I thought it had to be rooted. If you have had success with a different file manager (or pushed it through ADB) then letting me know what worked would be great.

You'll be able to get to it in a terminal window or adb - not sure what's up with Solid, equally an update.zip will work without root.
/data/local/ is r/w for the local user and shell.
try - echo test > /data/local/test.txt on a non-rooted device, it'll work.
Actually, now that think about it more - Solid probably can't list the contents of / (root) so you can't navigate to sub directories. Can you type a path into Solid? That should work.

I'll definitely test that out and put a guide for newbies on there. Solid displays the root directory, but will not allow you to navigate to a folder inside of it. I was thinking about ease of access for the user, and assumed they wouldn't want to go the adb route. My bad, but thank you for the heads up.

If you want it as easy as possible you could provide an update.zip for those with a custom recovery - that's going to be the simplest way. If you want to do that and need some help let me know.

No worries, I can whip one up in a few minutes when I get home.
In the meantime you can have a look at some here: http://djmcnz.batteryboss.org/GNexus/mods/StockLauncher/v4/

hello all,
I am looking for app. or any other solution which disable the camera.
Does anyone have such a solution?
Thanks,
htako
You could use Titanium Backup to freeze your cammera app. (Although i suspect it would cause some future force-closes)
If you only want to prevent camera usage for a non-advanced user, you could just hide the camera icon, using samsung´s touchwiz-embeded hide icons feature.
anyhow, why would someone want to disable their camera anyways?
Simple move or delete it from /system/app with something like Root Explorer...

As second poster said, freeze it, but it can be unfreezed...
But it's kinda pointless you do so from software, because other people can easily download and install another camera from play store... unless you can disable it under hardware level...

Use something like Root Explorer or similar file manger, navigate to /dev , there is a file named "exynos-mem" , long press it, choose permission, and uncheck all box
See screenshot
I DO HOPE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, AND TAKE NOTE OF ITS PREVIOUS PERMISSION SETTING IN ORDER TO RESTORE CAMERA FUNCTION , OTHERWISE YOU WILL DISABLE YOUR CAMERA AND WON'T BE RECOVERED EVEN YOU FLASH NEW ROM UNLESS YOU CHANGE IT TO THE RIGHT PERMISSION.

Do you familliar with apps that control camera dis/en?
the solution you recommended seems to be irreversible
It shouldn't be irreversible. Go back to the file long press and select the boxes same as last time.
You're only changing permissions, once back to how it was, this will bring the camera app back.

Hello!
First, I apologize for my poor english. It's not my mother tongue.
I'm using JB 1.4.2 on Razr i.
There's one thing that's annoying me a lot. I've installed the SNES Emulator SuperGNES and I've found that every single file type that have no app associated is showing SuperGNES icon and associated with it. Example: .log, .db, etc. Even files that have no extension is associated with it. The same problem occur when ZArchiver is installed. I don't know if it's a bug of these two apps or Android's in general. Remembering that this associations are shown only inside Android's native file manager. It's like every "unknown MIME type file" act like being the same.
I only want to understand why it's happening, even if there's no solution...
Thanks in advance!
When we try to open files it's the file explorer fires an activity with the data of file properties any app that has declared to receive intents of that specific type are launched.
In case the app fails to filter what file types it reads that app would be called every time you open a file unless there's a default app to do so.

It's like the application telling the system that it can open "anything"... interesting...
So the problem is in app itself. Maybe an mistake made by developer when setting what files it can open.

Okay I've come to conclusion of rooting my phone so I can in install CyanogenMod 10.1. BUT I need your guy's help during the process. Here's some questions I need to ask.
On Q9, what does it mean to add lines on "hosts" file? Do you just rename the hosts file and add lines something like this? "_hosts_"
And for Q10, telling me to follow steps to 3 to 10. Does it mean I have to do it all over again? ..

No, if it's your only phone. I don't recommend it. I lot of stuff can go wrong and, if you have to install the fastboot driver and etc.
Think of it like this, changing the host file is like a grain of sand, BUT installing the omap drive and flashing in fastboot (if something goes wrong) is a huge BOULDER. get my point. Master this first and do a lot more reading before doing anything else. Look at all the threads in the help section. Several things can go wrong, and you have to be prepared for all of them. :sly:
