Thanks, I've been meaning to ask this, I saw it and a quick Google came up without any useful results.
I would be interested in knowing.
Can't find any reliable info on what it is/does, but I did come across a post on a different forum with some guys who seemed fairly knowledgeable... they were seeking to remove as much bloatware as possible from a previous LG phone... it wasn't an ancient phone though, fairly recent. Anyway, they were able to disable that program without any ill effects...
As for whether it can be disabled on our phone without causing issues, and whether one could go a step further and just delete it... I think the quickest way would be for somebody to give it a try.
Maybe someone who has additional knowledge of LG/AT&T apks would know specifically what this AAT is for.
Found it.

Looking for an app that will allow me to monitor (spy on in the case of a teenager) the other phones on my account. Nothing major, only requirements are SMS logging/recording as well as location.
I know there are several and wanted to save some time with evals and just use the best one right away.
Please let me know what you recommend and why.
TIA!
I'm trying to work with a custom build of Android based on KitKat to incorporate a stylus, copying some of the functionality (though not code) from Samsung which sells Android-with-stylus builds for e.g. the Note 3. I'm not including details of the specific device because right now I am working on a custom dev device and my aim is to write code which is generic enough to be usable from any Android (based on KitKat). The build (written by others) already incorporates drivers and sends stylus events correctly as motion events etc. Programming at the app level I can receive onHover, ontouch, onClick etc
The specific functionality I am trying to achieve is to pick up a stylus-button-click while hovering. It's perfectly possible to do this in any app, using an onGenericMotion Listener.
However, I want to make my "stylus-action" have system-wide effect - so that anywhere (in any other app, or in the launcher or whatever) I will pick up the event (prior to any other app) and bring up my custom menu. (just like AirCommand in Samsung Note 3) I guess in my custom Android this would then make that particular action somewhat protected or unusable for other users, but I'm ok with that.
In older Android (prior to ICS) you could try something by putting up a System Overlay (i.e in regular app code, without hacking the ROM at all), but this is no longer possible.
This is not an attempt to tapjack or whatever, I understand why this functionality has been removed from the domain of the regular programmer, and I don't want to regress my ROM back to pre-ICS behaviour by allowing the System Overlay hack. Now I am programming the system (if my change is good enough I'd like to submit it back to AOSP) so I would like to know the best method to address this. Since Samsung have already done this, it must be legal (using legal in the terms of "Android will allow it"), and I want to do it right.
Is it possible to write something similar to the System Overlay when you are running from a system service? Or is there a good choke-point to capture events before they are broadcast to the current running apps?
I was looking at (sorry, not allowed to post links) AndroidXRef /frameworks/base/core/java/android/view/View.java specifically in the function dispatchHoverEvent() which looks like a promising place. My naive idea is that I would place code here checking the MotionEvent to see if the button is pressed and if it is, don't call any listeners and instead call my little menu app (or broadcast a custom message, or something anyway). However, I've never written code on the ROM level before (LOTS of experience writing app code) so I don't know if this is a really bad point or a good point to add in code. Should I be putting things at a higher level or a lower one? Will this capture all events or not? Is it all just trial and error?
If this is the wrong place to ask questions like this, please tell me where on XDA I should be asking it. If it's the right place - please answer
Thanks

The guy above me is a ****. I stumbled across this post looking for something completely unrelated (title interested me). Five words in I knew this was something completely out of my league, but I still read the entire post. If I may offer you some probably useless advice, I would talk to the devs in the note forums. The only problem I could see is that the AOSP guys don't have this function in their roms because it's locked up Samsung code and the guys modding the stock roms leave it alone for the same reason. I could also be completely wrong. Like I said completely out of my league.
RemoteUnlockService
As the app's name says, is a service of the system. Maybe it works with features like Smart Lock, Throw or something like that. If i find more info i'll tell you, but this is the only i think it is.
Additionally, I'm also looking for on answer phone call count in that for specific numbers. Not looking for an app just script JavaScript whatever you want to use it's fine, and it would be fun to see what that turns out to look like anybody interested let me know.
He can be discussed before hand and will be fair
