Hi guys,
I have Amlogic S812 streamer Xtreamer Wonder and it's running on 4.4.2 Android.
In the Settings menu there is no possibility (no menu at all) to add another Google account in addition to the one that was created initially. As a result all Google apps such Play Market, Gmail, Drive etc, working with one and only account without ability to switch to another one if needed. It's especially limiting with Paid apps which was bought under different accounts...
I tried to search all over the internet for the similar issue, but surprisingly did not found any ...
All the rest functionality is as usual, I also have root, thanks to the Rooting Guide by C3C076
Any help is very appreciated!
This is how Settings menu looks like :
Unfortunately, this firmware disable this feature.
So, to change google account, you have to use adb tool and remove /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db file (if box is root) and add another account.
If box isn't root, you have to factory reset this box to add new account

Thanks for your answer water275, but is what you mean is just removing existing and adding a new one, but there still will be only one account ?
I tried to use few different apps which can manage existing accounts and I had there the option to remove account, but not to add. So in order to remove i think i can use this way, instead of adb. But what about to have multiple accounts? Absolutely impossible ?
What is interesting is that those account management apps allowed me to go into sync options for existing accounts. So it looks like the Xtreamer just hiding required functionality (menus) and not completely removed them. I was thinking in direction of xml files which are responsible for menu layouts, but i have not too much knowledge with them...
You can use Gmail. When you slide left panel in, there's an arrow next to your profile name. When you expand it you will see "Manage accounts" menu option.
Alternatively you can use my simple app (attached) I created for this purpose.

You right :good::good::good:
Gmail not allowing to add account guys. There is no such option. If it could be this way then it would be simple

Sorry mate, what do you mean ? 2nd and 3rd screenshots is from your app. Where 2nd one is straight after I launch your app and 3rd one if I choose google account and then click on options on the right side.

Sorry, you are right. I got confused because of launching that app on my phone which runs lollipop. It unfortunately behaves differently on KitKat.
I'll try your app on my android stick in car, there is also 4.4.2 just to compare, but as i said earlier even that menu that your app shows is not available from the usual settings menu, so it seems like Xtreamer just hiding these menus for some reasons.

Yeah. But the screenshot above is a result of launching app on lollipop. Looks like the same call yields different results on KitKat.

For some reason on my Android stick in the car your app can't be installed. I have Install and Cancel buttons, but Install not clickable. I'll try similar app from the store later.
Found solution !
The reason is that Xtreamer installed custom Gmail app that is not asking for update and installed as a system app (you can't uninstall it in usual way). This app have no option to add/manage account as I shown on the screenshots above.
Thanks to ROOT i was able to remove that app completely from /system/apps , and installed official Gmail app from the store. In the official app there is full managing functionality for accounts and i was able to add multiple gmails there.
I highly recommend to uninstall pre-installed Drive and Youtube apps too.
In the general settings menu of Android there is still no manage account section, but at least I can get there through Gmail now.
Thanks to everybody for your help !
I have a problem using my apps because of the ads,they appear fullscreen on every 3 seconds,so its imposible to use my apps.i have tried a lot of apps that block advertisments, but they were useless.all of the apps are downloaded from google playstore.solution?
check your apps, fake ones act like this
There are some apps which produce ads on our mobile for that they earn money for displaying it and earn more when clicking it.
Try adblock plus which is totally free and it's not available in Playstore so you need to download it directly from your browser.
It might work :good:

How can i know which apps are fake?
Are you rooted? How do you block ads?
Is this happen on every app on your smartphone, even the native ones? This sounds like a virus/exploit.... if your smartphone is rooted you should try to get an antivirus-app and try to use it.. or if nothing works you have to reinstall your OS

This is abnormal (not related to a website for instance). Wipe the user data and start from scratch to identify the faulty app. Did you install apks outside the Play Store?

Well that's part of your problem right there. That developer is known if being terrible with putting ads everywhere. No one that knows will touch their apps.

Honestly that depends on the device. Most Chinese devices come with adware like this built into the OS. What device do you have?

You have obviously installed crappy apps that use ads from adbuddiz, admob... We can find a lot of them on Google Play (one of the reason why F-Droid is a good alternative).
Either uninstall everything but trusted apps (then reboot) or root your device and update your hosts file with good sources (AdAway's ones for instance). If it doesn't work, you will probaly have to start from scratch.
This is a flashable zip to delete all unnecessary stock apps using custom recovery.
You must have TWRP/RWRP installed (Guide to achieve this is HERE).
This zip is usable for both Stock and Custom ROMs.
Benefits :
More system space.
Better battery.
Cleaner app drawer.
List of apps removed :
Asus Service Center
Asus Calculator
Bloatware apps (Babe,Lazada,Shopee)
Facebook
Go2Pay
Google Calender
Google Drive
Google Duo
Google Mail
Google Maps
Google Messeging
Google Movies and TV
Google Music
Google Photos
Google Search
Instagram
Redundant wallpapers
YouTube
To install,
Download attached Debloat script.
Backup Data and everything else necessary.
REMEMBER this is tested on my primary device but the risk is entirely yours if you try this.
I will try to help in case of issues.
If on Android Pie then first mount /system partition in TWRP.
Flash via Recovery (nothing to be cleaned after flash)
Reboot.
If you see any of the above system app in app drawer after flashing this - then it is left due to App updates. You can uninstall them like a regular app and they won't bother you again.
Please create single file with Aroma support so people can decide what they want to uninstall.
Just a request

I'm having problem with multi touch, it's annoying when playing games.
And sometimes my phone took so long to charge. I tried using stock adapter, and ugreen with quick charge 3.0. But still doesn't make any difference. So i think it's software related issue.
Can you make a fix for these problem? Like custom kernel so it can charge faster?

I can work on with the help of similar fix used in Pixel phones. A magisk based solution but it will be fixed officially with next OTA containing June security patch so not worth the effort.
Wait for OTA it is android bug.
My phone is stuck on Zenfone Logo and I'm on 311. It's stuck there for about 3 min. and that's not normal, I think.

WebView is just an additional app for me .. I use Chrome Dev which can provide me WebView.
I use Google Inbox and user should have an ability to remove this app.
Calendar plugin is just an addon for people who do not use Google Calendar to keep track of shedules.
It's all personal opinion and most of the apps are available in PlayStore so you have the alternate to install the apps as user apps.

Trying to find time for implementing Aroma installer.
The wallpaper issue is due to Live Wallpaper Picker being removed from v305 in the device.

Thanks a lot. Works on 6gb version too. Usual debloater script. Haven't tried extreme.
Somehow unistalling chrome or something from Root Explorer was breaking things in the OS.

Hi All,
Is anyone else having issues while trying to authenticate apps (or open apps) using fingerprint on the device? (Say Google Pay, I cannot log in to the app with fingerprint, phone asks for Pattern/Password).
If this is not an issue, please let me know how to enable it. I checked in settings, looks good.
Please note that I am able to unlock the device using FP

I don't think there any option to enable it. It's system wide support that's missing from xiaomi on POCO. it was there on Mi A2 (obviously, being Android one).SO i think we need to bring this one to POCO Team's attention. Send Bug report for same & Tag them on twitter if you are there.

Yup, I dont think it works on miui. I am not able to authenticate any of my banking apps via fingerprint.
I guess its depends upon the app developer. There is no fingerprint authentication for Google Pay/ Tez but I can enjoy this feature with ICICI banking app.

I checked. I can use it on my bank accounts, app lock, and third party app loks as well.
The thing with Tez it that it relies on Android's native screenlo k or Google Pin, now the app is probably not able to leverage the screen lock fully (the Fingerprint), which should be brought to Xiaomi's notice. I'll be writing this on the Xiaomi Forum now.

I can't get it to work with the same app. It just says fingerprint authentication failed multiple times before I even place my finger and then it forces me back to using my pin.
Not sure with Google Pay/Tez since we don't have that in my country, but my banking apps work fine with fingerprint. Even PayPal works. I suggest updating the FIDO and IFAA certificates. If it doesn't then best bet is to truly contact Xiaomi or post in forums (though contacting them directly may be best to get any answers straight from the horses mouth)
It worked fine for me but since the last update (10.1.3) it has become unreliable - 50/50 chance of it working. Unlock device works 100% of the time. Tried recreating all the fingerprints and same issue.
I've the same problem.
All apps i decided to secure with fingerprint, can't be unlocked with fingerprint.
Only the option of PIN is available, but don't work either.
It's the same problem as drawkcaB has told...

The problem is that it mostly affects the pre-installed apps from xiaomi.
Unfortunately, you can not uninstall these.
Presumably a reset to factory settings will be unavoidable?

For me it was only 3rd party apps, bus you can try wiping the app data/cache individually to see if it works?

Fingerprint icon is not showing on lockscreen
I have seen fingerprint icon on lockscreen of stock android and OxygenOS. Also in Gpay if enable unlock using lockscreen fingerprint icon is showing on Gpay authentication window of both the phone. Since fingerprint icon is missing in lockscreen of poco make it depreciated to gpay authentication using fingerprint.

Hi everyone!
I recently updated my Sony Xperia X Compact to the latest (I think last official) android firmware, which is the following: F5321_Customized CE1_1304-8434_34.4.A.2.118_R2E
Today I wanted to sign in a particular app, which would forward me to the official website for me to log in, but the app instead opens a small windows, which contains the login possibility, but once filled out and sent the reques it says I need Javascript to do that.
Now doing this in a browser would not be a problem, but I couldn't find the option to turn this feature off.
So what did I miss?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Kind regards,
Steve
Sounds like the app is sending you to webview, not a browser. That is built in.
If goggle chrome is the default webview, then turning on JavaScript in chrome may fix the problem. If the default webview is the android system one, then there are no settings. Apps can control the use of JavaScript programmatically.
The setting to switch the webview is in developer options.

Thanks, now I am one step ahead, because at least I know what the hell this is.
But Chrome is the default browser, Javascript is enabled and I still can't get the app to work, while it says Javascript is not enabled.
Can I actually disable webview?
AFAIK, you can not just disable webview without creating trouble. as I said, you can switch which app is used for webview in developer options.
There should be a 3-dot menu when a link opens in webview and an entry to open in browser.

The 3-dot menu is not there.
On my previous version of Android I was asked what to do, or in some apps I could change the option from the start, I mean to open the links in an external browser, and not in the app itself.
Now I don't have the option.
And even I chenged the setting in Gmail, when I try to open a link inside a mail, it does it in the app, and not in Chrome.
Why is that?
I think you said took updated to the last stock release which I think is Android 8.0 (Oreo). As the major versions released, there were API changes. Webview started becoming a significant part of app development. I don't have any devices on Oreo and I don't remember what was an wasn't possible.

I appreceiate your help, and I don't want to drag this for too long.
My sister has the same model of phone.
She updated on OTA, I did it with Flash tool, but the same version number of firmwares are on both of the phones.
Now I know that the numbers are not all, since regions have a bit of different ROM's, for instance Central Europe and Asia or any other are a bit different.
My sister's phone works fine as before, apps open link in a Chrome powered window/app, and the 3-dot menu is there to do more, and to open in in the full Chrome app if you wish.
The same option is missing from my Android.
Now I try to go back to full stock Android and start from the beginning, but this is something I can newer understand, same version, completely different functions...

Try to find first which app is selected for WebView implementation, you will find it under developer options, in the case you have, for example, two apps like Chrome (not selected or greyed out) and Android System WebView (actually selected), then go to the settings of this last app and disable it, now you will have only Chrome working for this function. And in the case you don´t have installed Chrome then install it before to disable Android System webView.

First it was Chrome, Android System WebView was greyed out.
Than I disabled Chrome, ASWV was enabled, but the problem was the same, I wanted to open a link from an app, the small window appears, and it is useless, since I couldn't even advance from that page, since it didn't function properly.
Now what I really don't understand is why my sister had non of these problems with the latest Firmware.

Probably you should try by starting from the beginning to see if it solves:
- Deleting both apps using adb uninstalling commands.
- Then go to recovery and wipe cache (if you don´t take care about formatting data)
- Then Installing just Chrome or I should install instead of Chrome just a very little sized app like this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.android1.webview that uses a Google based preview with many features to go from.
- And also can help make Chrome as default browser if you want that links open ever on it.

First it was Chrome, Android System WebView was greyed out.
Than I disabled Chrome, ASWV was enabled, but the problem was the same, I wanted to open a link from an app, the small window appears, and it is useless, since I couldn't even advance from that page, since it didn't function properly.
Now what I really don't understand is why my sister had non of these problems with the latest Firmware.

Could this possibly help? It may be as simple as disabling the ability to draw over other apps.
