I am trying to create an android applications in which when a user fills some details, the details get transferred to an external website form, which gets autofilled with the same details. I cannot control the external website. So can you tell me how to autofill that form by taking user input separately?

I know that this is not really a Tab question but since I have one, I thought that I would post it here.
I would like to have my huge photo library stored in the cloud and accessible from an app such as Dropbox, Minus or any of the other similar services. The problem is that the file size of most of my photos is a couple GB per image. I do not have an unlimited amount of storage in my Cloud accounts. Also, I do not need to be able to access full size image files when simply viewing them on my Tab.
Has anyone found an app or service that will go through a library of images, resize them to something appropriate for viewing on a 10 inch tablet and create a new lighter image library that could be stored in the cloud?
In order to be useful, this should be a one-click batch mode process and have the ability to update itself as new images are added to the full size photo library.
Has anyone seen anything like this?
I look forward to being enlightened.
Bob

Yes it is safe, it needs the permissions for geotagging, letting you share pics online, save pics to sd card, keep phone awake while using app etc. Not sure about the log permission though, it might be to read and send them error reports.

I just ran it and it only tried using two things, one was gps and one was imei.
The location is for geotagging and I would think it uses imei to identify you have right to use it as it was a paid for app originally and this permission may have been left in.
I use lbe privacy guard and these permissions were all it tried using, blocked both with lbe and app still works so maybe you could try that if your concerned.

Thanks! I'll try both that privacy guard and the app.
does this blocking thing work with trektrak mobile security as well?
Is it possible to monitor what files in the android system are being read when an app starts up? I want to know what files a game I play reads when it starts up. Specifically, it has a "token" that it uses to link my device to a user profile on their servers. I want to find where this token is so I can remove it and place another in its place to "log" into another account rather than maintaining a single account per device. Any ideas to this effect would be greatly appreciated.
None of the Google Applications support external storage, Gmail 4.1.2 won't send documents attached from an external sd card, Play Movies & TV won't allow you to specify a external card as a storage location, pinned Google Drive documents can't be stored on an external card, Play Music sucks up internal memory. Try sending an attachment using Gmail from a Motorola Xoom, a "Google Experience Device" - it looks like it's attached during composition but won't send. When contacting support I'm told this is expected behavior - see below.
Anyone else running into this?
How do we get Google to support this? Most other email applications support it, but as a Google Apps Enterprise user I want and expect the native Android email application to work.
I use external storage on a Galaxy Note 10.1, Galaxy S3, Razr Maxx and Transformer Prime

Hi John,
Thanks for your message.
I have been able to determine the reason that you're not able to attach files from SD, as follows:
- The default storage path is pointing to the internal storage, which is supported, rather than an external storage path such as SD.
- The Gmail app itself, as it uses APIs behind the scenes, is not able to load attachments from the external path, only from the default (internal) path.
- I've been able to find an error that results when trying to perform this task, as follows (and as an example):
ERROR/Gmail(4494): file:// attachment paths must point to file:///mnt/sdcard. Ignoring attachment file:///Removable/sdcard/sample_file.pdf
In terms of /mnt/sdcard you see above, this is pointing to the internal/onboard storage. For '/sdcard/', this is actually a symbolic link which points back to /mnt/sdcard (the internal storage).
The removable (SD) card points to /Removable/sdcard, which Gmail cannot access via API, as this returns the internal storage location. The API also cannot access other directories such as /mnt/external1 or another location.
Based on all of the above, our technical teams have concluded that this is the current/expected behaviour for files coming from SD, as there is no way to access them via Gmail, and they can only be attached when coming from onboard/internal memory. In short, it is a limitation of the API John. From a technical point of view, it will be possible to attach files that are from SD, but are nested (sub-directory) inside /mnt/sdcard, however, I understand this may not be feasible or convenient.
I understand that this is an important distinction and requirement for you John, however, the above information is what I can provide you with. I will still suggest using the recommendations earlier of IMAP in Email application, or, files coming from internal/onboard storage in Gmail app over API (in the background).

I just tried on my s3 and managed to attach from the external and send here.

Hello dear community,
I am looking for this for quite a while.
Is there an app that will allow me to create my own cloud based dictionary? I want to improve my language skills through creating my own dictionary.
The dictionary database has to be editable online (web based), since I would like to be able copy/paste detailed definitions from different web dicts.
And of course a sync-able android app that will allow me to check some words on the go or learn while in the train
"Now" dictionary is getting pretty closer to what I wish for, but it's only available for smartphones and no browsers.
"Anki cards" is cool too, but they focus on the flip-cards learning feature which I don't frankly need. I will be completely happy with a super simple searchable custom dict.
There are some apps that allow to create custom dict file and then upload it to the SD or whatever and use it. But I want to be able to add words constantly (web or on the go)
I'm thinking - there definitely is such an app, its just me who fail to search of it properly so please help )
cheers,
Kalin
Hi there!
I would like to encourage you to check out the Spreadsheet Memo app: http://spreadsheetmemo.com
Spreadsheet Memo is a flashcard-based learning web application (combined with the power of Google Sheets to store your content) that allows you to quickly memorize things.
Flashcards can bear vocabulary, major historical dates, chemical element names, math/physics equations or even types of dinosaurs
Simply put, any subject matter that can be learned via a question-and-answer format.
You can use it for your study, as a preparation tool, knowledge check for one of your exams or to practice new vocabulary.
Sky is the limit!
See more:
YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UReSmwT4O9E (everything you need to know about the Spreadsheet Memo app in one video)
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/SpreadsheetMemo (news, helpful tips and updates notifications)
Twitter: https://twitter.com/SpreadsheetMemo
Example Document (updated with every new release; provides the examples of how to use the new Spreadsheet Memo features)
Chrome Web Store: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/spreadsheet-memo/kkanmehahohgnfcncalgknpbnaiaomeb (you can add the Spreadsheet Memo to your Chrome Apps for quick access - this app is free, no ads and no hidden costs)
The main features and the main goals of the Spreadsheet Memo are:
It helps you to memorize things: and it works! Every lesson is composed with two rounds. The goal of the first (initial round) is to check your brain memory's performance (you reveal the answer and subjectively define its difficulty by choosing one of the following: "I knew it" or "I didn't know"). The second round (final round) is to make sure that you have remembered the new or troubling things. The progress of the current round is presented by the progress bars located near the Question/Answer cards.
Ability to use the Google Sheet documents to store your data: with all the benefits of Google documents like sharing, editing, printing, etc.
Compatible with mobile devices: you can use it on your computer but also on all kinds of your mobile devices. You're not bound to one device. So, whenever you've got some spare time, start the new lesson. You just need a web browser!
Multiple documents: you can use as many different documents as you want. All according to your needs! You can even use the Named Ranges feature offered by Google Sheets. This is a very useful way for slicing your Spreadsheet Memo documents to a smaller parts and describe those parts with friendly names.
Responsive: no unnecessary pages loading - clean, quick and simple.
You can add links and images to your content: sometimes the words are just not enough. You can add an image or a link to the internet resources to enrich your content. It could be especially useful when you prefer some additional visualization for being able to remember things quicker and better.
You can enrich your content by using Wiki Markup - supported types are: Text formatting, Indent text, Lists, Sections, External links, Images and YouTube videos.
You can add mathematical equations or formulas using the TeX or AsciiMath notation.
Your documents stay with you: by using the standard Google Sheet documents you're able to review and edit their content even without the Spreadsheet Memo app.
Secure and safe: all of your documents belongs only to you, no personal info is shared or collected, all connections are made with secure https protocol.
No ads or hidden costs: it's all for free!
Your privacy is very important and you have the right to remain anonymous.
The Spreadsheet Memo was build on the foundations provided by Google (Google Apps Script: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/) and uses all the benefits of this platform, such as:
integration with Google services (e.g. Google Sheets)
single sign-on (you don't need to remember yet another login/password. Let the Google manage and provide access to other apps, like the one to the Spreadsheet Memo app)
built-in security, stability, scalability and efficiency
This app uses the Google Authorization. Thus, when first launched, the Spreadsheet Memo will need your authorization to run. You can read more about it here: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/authorization You don't need to know all about this - the most important info is that your email, login, password or any other personal info will NOT be passed to the Spreadsheet Memo. They will always remain your property.
Your approval of permissions will let the Spreadsheet Memo operate properly and with full capabilities.
And I'm fully aware that all the permissions might look pretty scary at first glance. And that is exactly why I've written all of this - trying my best to make you feel safe and making sure that you are well informed.
So, let me explain those permissions:
View and manage your spreadsheets in Google Drive, View and manage the files in your Google Drive - for being able to find the Spreadsheet Memo documents. This app operates only on Spreadsheet Memo documents, it has no access or even isn't aware of the existence of any other of your Goggle Drive files.
View and manage data associated with the application - for being able to store your preferences using the user properties (those preferences are private and are connected specifically with your Google account)
Allow this application to run when you are not present - for being able to run this app without additional login prompt, when you're already logged into your Goggle account - just to save your time (standard behavior of Google related products)
Know who you are on Google - standard permission to recognize you as a google user (no information is processed or collected)
View your email address, Send email as you: for being able to send you the welcoming mail (with short summary and information about your current Spreadsheet Memo assets). And the best part is that this email will be sent from your account to your account, never leaving your own context. So your email address, as well as your identity, will stay hidden and secure.
And If you don't like this app (something that, I hope, is unlikely going to happen ) you can always revoke its accesses (uninstall it). There are two ways to do this:
Just follow the instruction from https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/authorization#revoking_access_rights
or you can use the Uninstall option provided in the mail that you will receive from Google. It will be sent right after the first launch of the Spreadsheet Memo app. Look for the mail: "More information about Spreadsheet Memo with uninstall instructions." in your inbox. Any documents that you've created will stay in your Google Drive, nothing will be lost.
Wrapping things up: remember that all of your documents belongs only to you, you can uninstall this app any time you want, no personal info is shared or collected, your identity (such as email) is and will remain your own property. From the Spreadsheet Memo point of view, you're anonymous.
You can find some additional info about the Spreadsheet Memo at the https://www.facebook.com/SpreadsheetMemo page - including news, helpful tips and updates notifications.
I've been using flashcard-based apps for quite some time (Super Memo was great!) and I've found them very useful. But every one of them had some things that just doesn't work for me (e.g. troubles with data migration, lack of support for mobile devices, no statistics, etc.) - so I've decided to write my own.
One line of code to another and the idea transforms into something with its own domain name and Facebook/Twitter page.
So, feel free to check it out. And if you have any thoughts about it (like/dislike, opinions, reviews, ideas) please leave a comment. Thanks in advance for any feedback!
