I am developing an android application to lock specific apps. It is expected to work like most app lock application.
User clicks on an app
My app detects launch of that app
Checks if it is marked by the user
If yes, puts my PIN activity over it
I have done a bit research but I couldn't find a solution that suits phones running API22(Android Lollipop 5.1.1). (I am using Nexus 4 running Lollipop 5.1.1).
I would be happy to get some references/links that would help solve my problem

It's its called data gospel
I put this it in Android system hacking feel free to move it around any other place. But this service showed up as a system service
data_gospel
then I've dug a few more details about it
And the name showed up very suspicious.
Does anyone have a clue what what this thing does.
needless to say for the time being I am disabling this

data_gospel app removal
Hi, I found data_gospel showed up as a threat when I scanned the phone with ESET security. I used System App Remover from the Play store to delete the app and the phone works perfectly well without without it!

These types of things are normal for China based devices. They have things built in that allow them to monitor what people do with their devices. Just something you will get used to if you buy devices from China.
it's a similar or sometime worse deal from US based cell phones. example there is a process called Google backup transport or something like that and another one that is so nice specific called g a proxy that stands for Google Analytics proxy and both these processes connect to Google servers to transmit your data everybody wants to be big brother watching over you
but the Chinese ones are very surreptitious and hard to detect if they come embedded along with the stock OS which does not report them as being Malware
I'm a 14 year old android app developer in training
I need help/tips on my app. I have already set up android studio with the sdk and jdk.
I already made the wireframes and storyboard of the app. So I started making the main screen/activity in Android studio. Done with the main screen, although I haven't programmed it yet. What now? Do I start another Activity? I would like for you guys to help me through the process of developing my android app. It's called Shadow. I would really appreciate the help from the adult Developers.

Post a screenshot of your app. What kind of app you are trying to develop.. give a brief description as well.

Hi !
If you want to do several "pages" with different controls there are several ways:
1 . use different activities . This is the simplest way
2. use fragments. This is a bit more difficult
What do you mean? Screenshot of my wire-frames? or of the main activity app?
The app I'm developing is a File hider App. But it's a little more organized and clean/minimalist looking than the other apps that are on the market. I call it Shadow File Hider. You're supposed to select the files that you want to hide and place them in a list. You can activate that list with a switch. The files are hidden. To show them again, just use the switch. But I also want to incorporate a way of hiding the actual app. This is what will make it stand out from the other apps. You can use the pattern lock screen as a Boss Key to hide the app. Use a custom pattern - that you set up in the app - to activate the app, before your normal pattern. That way when you use your smartphone normally no one will know the app is there or that you are hiding something. But you can easily open the app and close at will.
BTW
What's the best way to monetize my app when I'm finished?

So I'm on my way to finishing the app. But one of the main settings in my app is to hide itself with a boss key. It's supposed to work with the lock-screen pattern. But how am I supposed to develop that? Any Ideas?

According to their information about the app,
"+Requirements
This app is compatible ONLY with DIVUS TOUCHZONE devices, since it accesses a series of hardware features only present on this kind of devices. Therefore this app is in fact installable on common smartphones / tablets, but you can't use it there. If you are interested in using the DIVUS LAUNCHER also on your smartphones / tablets, please get in contact with us!"
thank you for your reply but I did not need the specific functions I just want to make use of the home page to limit the choice of app for my son

Oh, I see. I suggest maybe looking into an app lock application. You can make it so opening certain apps or settings would require a passcode / pin / pattern type thing before access is granted.
Ciao fellow devs,
I've recently been asked to find a way to turn a smartwatch into a custom data tracker, meaning basically to dumb it down and allow its users only access to one app which loads up immediately after booting and cannot be closed. I was wondering if any of you have any experience with this type of 'total conversion' of the OS, and if there is a rather subtle way for me to implement this or that I am forced to either build a custom ROM of Android Wear (if possible?) or move to a different solution such as AsteroidOS.
Thanks in advance guys,

I would suggest creating an app with a bootreceiver that launches your fit app. Make the fit app (or your own) implement home screen action intent filter, and use adb to set it as default. All without changing stock is! (Note: i didn't test)

Hello guys,
I am currently developing a native Android app using Android SDK, it runs on location so the app runs in the background constantly fetching user's location. For that, android automatically shows a notification that app is running in background and user cannot remove it
I have found only that Android Oreo now gives you a feature where you can remove this notification. But this has to be done on every user's phone. Can we add something in our code that hides this for all users?
Appreciate any help.
Thank you
