I don't know if I am asking my question in the right place; if not plz excuse me. I couldn't find better place...
I had a Galaxy Ace S5830 phone and now I've changed my phone. It had one app that I could protect any of my gallery photos with a password. I don't know if it was a pre-installed app by Samsung or I had installed it manually and I can't remember the name of that. I need it for my new Galaxy Note... Anyone can tell me the name of that app? Or any similar app can help me overcome this problem? Remember I just want special photos in my gallery to be password protected. I DON'T mean an "App Locker Program, such AppLocker Pro app or similar to it".
Thanks for your help <3

pre-install means you want to make it bloatware
just place this app into system/app using root explorer

what i mean from "pre-installed" is that if I newly by this smartphone, while I have not installed any apps yet at first, does this smartphone have such this program from factory installed by Factory's default? I hope I could tell u my meaning, but if not so, never mind. however tnx for quick reply...

Myself and some others who run Cognition on their GS2 have reported that Lookout Mobile Security has found a Trojan in the Camera (hacked camera silent edition by potatoman as far as i know) this has just flashed up on my screen a few mins ago, in all the time ive had a smartphone and had Lookout ive never had a trojan so you'll appreciated the concern, i tried to uninstall but it wouldn't allow me (it's build into the ROM no doubt so would have to uninstall)
A concern no doubt, ive frozen it in Titanium Backup for now but i need some assistance folks what should be done in this instance, i could flash another ROM but id sooner stay with Cognition for now.

Its simple, use root explorer and replace camera.apk in system/app folder
Does anyone think this could be related to the auto-upload pics to Google+ feature?
This camera seems very popular here in XDA. I would just ignore the warning. But yeah, if you are paranoid, there is always the option of changing the apk.
I Posted this in the Cog thread too, but since there's 2 places to talk about it, here goes:
So full disclosure: I have no idea what I'm doing. Good start right?
I use LBE privacy guard to control permissions on a per app basis. After seeing the posts about camera.apk, I downloaded and ran Lookout, and found the same information as reported above, that camera.apk was infected with Trojan:Android/Bgserv.A.
I googled it and found : http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/00002116.html
I noted the app permissions, which is basically everything, and compared it to what camera.apk was requesting on my phone. Camera.apk for me only requests access to sms and location, no network access and no phone info access.
I'm not sure, but this might be a false positive. Like I said though, I have no real experience with this stuff. I'm just poking around.
I think it is just a false alarm, nothing serious. I get this also on 2 other modified programs. And the other 2 is just translated. I think it is due the repackaging.

No. The camera app doesn't upload your pics - the Google+ app does it.
Scanned with Eset Nod 32 and Malwarebytes clean as a whistle = false positive probably .

I hardly think Lookout would flag this as being malaware if it wasn't, i don't subscribe to this "false positive" way of thinking, my opinion is better be safe than sorry.
So in order to get the stock camera back ive to replace this in system/app, where can i find an apk. for the stock camera, cheers.
I'll be ultra careful from here on in about downloading third party apps.
edit never mind i didn't see the above post i have replaced the camera via root explorer.

If it's better safe than sorry, your best bet is to roll back to a stock backup you made before flashing
OK i went to system/app and clicked on install and replaced the camera, done a scan and it's still showing as malaware and will not allow me to uninstall, where can i find a genuine apk. for the stock camera does anyone know,other than that ill have to flash another ROM.

i did say from here on in, this is a genuine community for the most part,however you cant be sure there are not people on here who create trojans inside apps, i just noticed with this camera app the amount of permissions it asks for is way too much just for a camera.

Hi!
I have a problem.... Instagram have blocked my device. Not my account, because I can log in to it from other devices or via the web, but I can not login using my device or even create any other accounts...
I have rooted S3 with 4.1.2... But I don't want to reset my device to try if that works... I don't even know if that would work?
On iOS there is an option of chaining some kind of keychain file... is there something similar on Android? or there is other options?
Thanks
Have you tried uninstalling it and resinstalling?

OK... after trying all kind of stuff... even switching to other Android ID using Titanium Pro did't help... so, the olny way I found was reseting device to factory state.
But if some one finds other solution, it would be great if you cold share with us.

nop... There is an solution, but it`s crapy...
I restored the device several times- installed other rooms and so one... They are not bloking the imei, but they are having some file on the phone, that includes the info about the violetion.
So the option is to reset the device to factory settings, install instagram,, opne it... Hit the Sign in button and then go to RAM clearing options- clear RAM memory and switch back to Instagram, but be sure the screen is where you must sign in the username and password and vuola... your in... After signing out, you must do the same thing when you need to sign in with other account or other one or creat new one... as soon as you pres sign in button- clear RAM and then sign in.
at the moment it`s the only solution I found, but have not been seeking for the option to find the file which is responsible for the info about the violetion.

still I'm really curious where instagram get's the information about being blocked from, since I changed my Android ID, even created a new Googleaccount and reset everything. The app "LBE Privacy Guard" says Instagram doesn't check the IMEI, but I'm not sure about that.

Hello everyone who have the same problem with me. My S grand2 disabled too, but my instagram still active, i can still login on other device/bluestacks.
Now, I have solution about this after instagram make me confuse for a couple of weeks.
I tried this on my Android Device (SGrand2), just install app called IMAGINE for Instagram. You can google it. Or i recommend to download from onhax web with search keyword "imagine". (sorry i still can't post link)
Once installed you can login from that app not from instagram official app. And the good news, you also get some new features there.
Thanks! Hope it can solve your problem.

Okay so i have this really old phone (Samsung Captivate) with a really awesoem clock app. But its a system app and i want to install it on one of my other phones (Galaxy Nexus) as a user app.
They both are NOT running stock ROM. In fact the Cappy is on 4.2.1 and the Nexus on 4.2.2.
Not a big differnece, right? So i presume this would be possible.
Before you ask, i did do research on this and found nothing but moving one user app from one phone to another phone as a user app, etc. Nothing with moving a system app from one phone to user app on another.
If you want i can upload the apk file for you guys/gals to see. Just ask. (My phone is dead at the moment)
Thanks,
Jack
Surely yes. Try it (copy the apk to the GNexus and launch it with your file manager).
so all i do is install as if a normal apk?
gonna go ahead and try it

Dear Jack
Can you modify a app name "auto call recorder" for install to other android device.
Its system apk and just transferring it to another android device for installing , its not installing(Please note : device administration for unknown source is on)
i did a search and someone asked this about 2 years ago, and the answer was that its not possible. But maybe there is a way now.
Im wanting to install 2 instances of the same APK
The app is: Star Wars Force Collection
Reason im wanting to do this: Once you install the app and login to your account, theres no way to change accounts without uninstalling / reinstalling and logging into new account.
Looking for a way around this. I have a rooted Nexus 5.
Thanks for any help

ive seen an app that does multiple profiles but after reading reviews its not that safe and can corrupt your main profile / or prevent you getting back to it.
Still looking for a solution here, must be possible

you could unpack the apk and rename the package name... I'm not sure how to do this as I'm no Recognised Themer, but if you did get an RT to help you then I'm sure you could install the same app twice if Android thought it was a different apk when it isn't, unless it'd bugger it up by having the same app loaded in ram at once. I'm no expert but this is the only way I can see of doing it.

Sorry to bump such an olf post but im looking for the same reason as op. Running multiple instances of the same app would make life much easier. Im running lollipop so all the guides iv read thus far havnt had any success. Can anyone help?
I would like to only run 1 instance of the same app ,different versions though
Sure, this is possible via Lucky Patcher (I know, we don't love Lucky Patcher here). You can use the clone app option. I'm not sure how they do it. They change the last digit of the package name, I don't know if they change anything else. If it needs to be different versions, I don't know how.
Can someone give me the stock apps of :camera, music player, gallery, and photo editor? Because I changed Rom and I don't like the new ones... Thanks in advance
Yeah, I have the same problem. Can I obtain stock apps anywhere?

thanks for the link,but i didnt find the apps i needed,also the only app i found is crashing after startup(tried many versions),so if someone ported me the apps from his phone i would be grateful
