FreedomPOP - Premium voice on all outgoing calls. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I found a way to force premium voice to be used during all out going calls, regardless of whether the network speed is adequate or not. While I'm very satisfied with FreedomPOP's service, I do feel like if I'm paying for the 2G cell service for phone calls, I should be able to use it at all times, not only when their app deems it necessary. Because, lets face it, as most of you know the VOIP can be flaky at times. either causing delays in the conversation or just breaking up completely and dropping. I know many people beat this by simply turning off cell data and WiFi. While that solution works, it's a pain in the ass to do that every single time.
This is a very simple hack to make it use the Premium voice service at all times. You will need a permissions editor to complete this task.
I used Advanced Permission Manager.
What you will need to do is open the app in Advanced Permission Manager and select the Messaging App.
1. Open Advanced Permission Manager, click on all All Apps and select freedompops Messaging app.
2. Once it is opened you will see a list of all the permissions that app has on your phone.

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. The permission you want to remove is reroute outgoing calls. Simply click on it to remove its access.
4. now select Save & Reinstall. it will compile the New APK without the reroute outgoing calls.
And that's it.
Few things you will need to know.
1. Since the app is not the original from Google Play you will no longer get notifications of when the App has been updated, I normally check it manually from week to week.
2. Every time there is an App update you will need to uninstall, Reinstall the original from Google Play, then follow the steps modifying the app permissions again.
3. Since this does require uninstalling and reinstalling the app, You will lose all text messaging history, each time there is an update.

You are the best!

Does this still work?

I need to undo reroute outgoing calls, and now "save and reinstall" is no longer a choice. Only "close" is a choice and of course it doesn't save anything. Please help.

[Mod] SMS link in dialer

Hello all,
So I hate repetitiveness in the UI so I have swapped the dedicated VM button with an "goto/initiate SMS" button. We already have a voicemail button by pressing or dialing one why do we need two?

Glad to see you around here
very cool.
Any chance you can make the dialer numbers scalable as well? (for alternate DPI?)
Forcing the log button to stick on what you want logged would be great too. Right now, if you hit log or the press the green phone button, you get a log of all calls and SMS messages. You can switch it in the menu but it reverts right back to log all. I loved how my cappy would show you logs of just the phone calls made/recieved.
Nice + 1 setimg up now

Hate to ask but how do i install this? I tried uninstalling contacts in titanium backup and restarting first, but when I tried to install the apk it just said "not installed", I do have unknown sources allowed in settings.

Place it in system/app (to replace the existing one) via root explorer (and fix the permissions to match everything else in the folder, rw-r-r).
Is this for stock?

This does not work on a stock/rooted phone. Maybe on a custom rom but pushed it on a stock phone and the SMS button takes me to voicemail.

[Q] Disable Location set by GPS Notification

As stated. I am using anti theft software that forces my phone to switch on wifi and GPS but as soon as it does I get that message telling me something is using my GPS etc. This looks suspicious to a potential thief in my opinion so I want to know if there was anyway at all I could remove or disable this pop up

Well. I have found out that Cerberus somehow disables this message shortly after it is displayed. However I prefer to use PhoneLocator Pro and that is the problem app for me. I contacted the developer and this is the reply
Hello !
This issue is because of your custom ROM you are running.
This is not happening in all the ROM's and you should ask developers of this rom how this issue can be fixed - maybe there is a way to disable this.
I will document myself on this, but I don't know if this can be fixed - even if you are saying that Cerberus doesn't have this behavior . Cereberus might be using a hack to turn on the GPS, a hack which I don't want to use cause Google is watching and these things can ban your app from the Play store.
Switch to Avast.
You can remotely lock the phone, sound an alarm, send text, forward calls, forward text, wipe phone info, gps track etc.... all through text commands. You also have the added benefit of anti-virus and firewall protection.
Best of all..... It's FREE.

I have that installed as well, it isn't as feature rich in comparison to PhoneLocator Pro or Cerberus. Plus I like to use the web based interface rather than SMS

Google Now with Bluetooth Device

Really ticked that I cannot figure this out....
So, I am running an ICS Rom with Google Now enabled hack.
I use bluetooth headphones and the Belkin bluetooth car adapter
Both of these products have a voice dialing feature. The problem is, that it launches the Voice Dialer app, which is as useful as bellybutton on a forehead.
I have the app Bluetooth Launch, which supposedly lets you program what happens when you push the voice dialing button on a bluetooth device. No luck.
I want to try to get rid of the Voice Dialer app using Titanium Backup, but I cannot find anything that come close to "Voice Dialer" on the list of apps.
Anybody know how to make Google Now the default Voice Dialing/Searching app when using a bluetooth device?
This is the app in question

I've been having the same issue on CM10.1. Bluetooth Launch doesn't work either.
See this post here:
http://brandtkrueger.wordpress.com/...voice-actions-the-default-instead-of-s-voice/
Basically with Google Now the Activity name is renamed.
Load "Bluetooth Launch" and choose the following:
Google Search->com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity
Works for me on my SIII and the Belkin CarAudio Connect AUX device, I did have to disable "S-Voice" within settings -- Applications and set Bluetooth Launch as the default launcher app to have it interop seamlessly.

How can I suppress Whatsapp toast "user is online"?

Hi, I solved this in the past but recenly I had to install again whatsapp on the same phone, and I can't remember how to do that. Also, I can't find anything in internet.
I have an annoying popup (I think it's called toast notification) that shows me an user come online. This doesn't happen often, but it does, and it does also when I?m not in whatsapp. For my privacy I don't want the people looking at my screen notify my contacts, how can I remove it?
It is something like that:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Found it ? Normally you can adjust this completely in the settings of the app.
Settings on stock ROM's and custom ROM's can differ a lot.
And ... always look to the version of the WhatsApp app ... there are very ofter updates.
Installation is usually via Google Play, although not necessary.
Hi, thanks for answer, I?m using the same version I had before, after reinstalling I got them. As I wrote this problem was present in the past, but somehow I've found where to disable them/somebody somewhere suggested me or I've read it, I can't find more such information.
It can be inside Whatsapp settings, it can be on anroid permission fot this app, I can't find it! I've searched anywhere. I would love to never receive toast notifications in amy app, not interesting for me, these is a way to disable them at all?
It's a pity whatsapp wasting my phone battery comunicating always with the server telling me who is online, I don't get a f* about that, and also I hate somebody follow me if I'm online or not! Killing my privacy!
I have whatsapp plus and I've selected "tell others I'm always online" I hope it works
No ideas where I can find this toast notification?

Your problem interested us here....there are not that many people who still use Whatsapp Plus.
There's a reason.
The Google playstore banned it from its repository. They could no longer guarantee the safety of the app. (No wonder that you could not install it from Play Store.)
I can't say whether your problem stems from this, but you might ask yourself what the
advantages of Plus are and whether they outweigh the disadvantages.
Why not just use the latest official Whatsapp ? This has already been improved a lot
and these improvements are being worked on daily.
Greetings and take care ....
thank you a lot for your support, I appreciate. As I wrote it was working good, then I had to put out my simcard to another phone and activate whatsapp there, when I've placed it back I needed to reinstall whatsapp and it misses now that setting. I was able to suppress it in the past, but I don't remember how. There shoulld be a way..
I need this to check the removed messages, and to filter my privacy only to the right persons. Whatsapp doesn't help about that, so I'll keep on this

Waze modded apk - Notify for Amazfit & Notify for Mi Band

Hi.
So, I edited a Waze apk to work with Notify applications for Amazfit and Mi Band watches.
I have a data plan that I can use Waze without reducing my mobile data so I thought if the Notify apllication dev made Google Maps work, I can make Waze to work with Notify.
It took me around a week to make it work but I think it was worth it.
This .zip that attached contains the modded .apk, a notify_pass.txt and a directions.json
Virustotal link for the apk: https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file...95f9bdbe49f6277f0793f4f767734745ddc?nocache=1
That alerts are false positive because the .apk is signed with debug key.
Instructions for installation:
1. Import the directions.json by looking this video:
Your browser is not able to display this video.
2. Place the notify_pass.txt in your phones internal storage. This .txt is needed for Waze mod to work. In Notify you have to enable Tasker integration. If you set a password for it, then write the same password in this .txt also.
If you don't use password for it then delete the notify_pass.txt content and leave it blank (It's still has to be placed in phones internal storage!)
3. After these steps are done, just connect to your watch, then open Waze and start navigating.
(DONT FORGET TO GIVE STORAGE PERMISSIONS FOR WAZE)
If the next instruction is X km long it will send navigation notifications to watch at every 500m.
If the next instruction is X m long it will send navigation notifications to watch at every 50m.
Some log files are generated in the internal phone storage. DONT DELETE THEM: (the modded apk reads data from them, street name, direction etc...)
If you have any questions or suggestion contact me on telegram: https://t.me/Butterfly3ffect
Changelog:
2022.11.01:
- Updated Waze .apk to latest stable
- Hopefully fixed a crash (again)
- Minor changes in my codes: They did something and I wasn't able to use my old code to scrape data from the .apk
(So now it works again)
Thank you for uploading it. the only thing I did not understand is how to activate it tasker through the notify

Hi. You sure it's that causing that? I'm using it (also used it multiple times on mobile network) with no issues. No force close, crash, anything. Can you provide a screen recording about the auto closing?
