Hello everyone!
I need your help! Recently the company that I work for decided to force us to use the Intelligent Hub app on our smartphone devices. The think with this awful app is that not only it is slow but also it asks for device administrator rights something that really bugs me.
Is there any way I can bypass this and make the app think that it has administration rights although it does not?
Maybe with a magisk module or something?
Thanks in advance.
Have a nice day everyone!

I'm also interested to find a solution for it. Did you find a solution for it?
No there isn't. If there was then the app wouldn't serve a purpose now would it.

Get a non-smartphone, problem solved!
Seriously though, Xposed Framework with XPrivacy might be able to do it. EDIT: The old one, not XPrivacyLua, is better if you can run it. It allowed you to do really stupid stuff that can break everything, which in this case is probably what you need.
If it was me, I would tell them to give me a phone and cell plan just for work and put it on there. I wouldn't particularly care about them having access, it's the principle of the thing.
I am currently wondering this too.

Hi everyone,
I'm looking for the best anti theft app for the Atrix. I've seen many posts about this but none of them gave enough information. Which one has a web interface with user and password not just using SMS? Does it work outside the US?
Regards
Prey is a good one. I'm using it now.
hmm anti-theft I serious doubt that there is a app that is truly anti-theft since this is a phone after all..best any app can do is aid in the recovery of a stolen device if Im incorrect please enlighten me on how a app can stop someone from phone jacking you

Why not do the easy thing and secure it with the software provided.
1) Use the fingerprint scanner
2) create a ridiculously long and hard to remember pin that only you know and is so damn hard to remember that even you might forget it.
3) Turn on your GPS and use the Motoblur tracking software (works like MobileME and always tracks me within a few feet.
Those three items alone will make your phone impossible to get into, and make it easy as hell to find it if it is stolen.
I'll try Prey and of course secure the phone. The thing is that i can't use motoblur tracking cause i freezed it. I cant stand MotoBlur!
Thanks!

Unfreeze motoblur, do not use the accounts feature (social networks and what not) remove all the widgets and change the wallpaper to pure black. This way you can keep the motoblur active while using a different home launcher and still get the benefits.
Is there an auto-answer feature built into the non-rooted Amaze and if not, is there an application that's known to work? I have a bluetooth motorcycle helmet and want the phone to automatically answer incoming calls. Used apps like AutoAnswer and My Profiles on previous HTC phones but they don't seem to work on the Amaze. Anybody using an auto-answer app with success?
No. I can assure you on that. Google makes it in 2.3+ that answering calls requires system permissions for all apps.
I'm an Android 'tard but does that mean that no app will provide an auto-answer feature? Or that Google has created some structure that makes it impossible for developers to create this kind of functionality?
Just wondering if a should keep playing musical apps trying to find one that will auto-answer a call, or resign that it's not going to happen unless I root the phone.
Thanks

I think he means it requires root permissions to work and since unrooted devices can't grant this, they won't work unless you root.
Is it possible to root the phone in order to allow these applications to work, but not disrupt all the existing functionality of the phone? In other words, is it possible to root the phone and have it work pretty much as it does now, or by rooting it, must I also flash a custom ROM? I don't want to lose my WIFI calling, camera functionality, or other issues that I read about when rooting a phone as I lack the expertise or interest to monkey with these side effects.
Thanks,
Scott

You can root and keep your stock setup, custom Rom isn't required.

Hello everyone!
I am new here.
I just bought a Sony xperia Z. I am one of those people who have some privacy concerns specially concerning webcam/voice/location/and other personal info on my phone.
I read a lot about rooting your phone. I'm a bit lost now on this issue. Does it help me alter app permissions so that google play for example can't reach my personal info? If not, what can be done?
Do I need to root the phone? If so, what's the easiest way to do that?
I just want to have full control over what my apps do in the background & what permissions they are given so that I rest my mind "google an't getting my business".
Thank you all!

Thank you! I will do it. Just one question though; is there any danger when rooting your phone?

Not so much with rooting but there's always the chance of damaging something.
Hi Everyone!
Greeting for the day! I hope you all are doing good.
I am here to ask a question which is bothering me from past few days . I am not any developer or geek, actually. So apology if this question is not relevant. I have been using mod apks from last few month but now I am realizing that all the apps requires almost full access or say permissions to your cell phone. So my question is "Why full permission is required for MOD apps?".
I mean is it really required to give full permission while creating a mod version or the developers unnecessary ask for it? So may be then can play with the data or other things when they are bored. :cyclops:
I used to download those apks from ONHAX or OSMDROID because they seemed better than any other place but now it's not same for me. I used to give full access but now I can n't. Could you please share your view and let me know if I can trust these websites or the full permissions?
I mean what about the application shared on XDA as well? Can we trust them? I know mostly people wants to help and seriously they do whatever they can, but still I have some confusion about this. Hence this thread.
Also if no, then is there any alternative way? like install app and then give only some permission manually which might be required for app.
Thank you in advance! :angel:
Have a nice day! :good:

Don't know about why they ask full permissions but yes,you can definitely change the permissions.There are many apps available on play store to change permissions but I would prefer advanced permission manager because it is reliable and easy to use.It also doesn't requires root to work,so it is really a nice application

Hi Milkyway3,
Thank you for your view. Indeed we can manage permissions. May be we can give same permission as the original app and hopefully that work. :laugh:
Let's see what other guys think of this.
Hello guys,
I did a lot of research and already tried my best to figure it out on my own.
Android 12
Samsung A52s 5G
Rooted with this Tutorial: Tutorial
I use a (anti-addiction)software that monitors all online/offline behavior.
The problem is, that I found a way to circumvent it by simply using the safe mode. With windows the solution was quite easy: deleting the registry entry for the safe mode options now leads to a blue screen.
But with android it is much more complicated for me. I rooted my device to find a solution for this.
One option could be to set the monitoring program/app as a system app (that it also starts in safe mode). But "Link2SD" and also "Systemize" mod for Magisk didn´t work.
Probably it is not that difficult to solve and I am willing to pay a tip to anyone helping me to find a good and working solution. I would prefer a solution that is not "repairable", so it can´t be turned on again.
Thanks in advance!

one not so perfect solution would be to use family link and enrolling device as a childs device, that would prevent safe mode.
There are a lot of mdm tools that offer prevention of entering safe mode thru knox apis but they are usually paid unfortunately.
can you provide more details about fact app didnt work as expected when you turned it into a system app?

Thanks very much.
I am going to try it with family link. Because the rooted phone is causing lots of issues.

I actually looked into this a bit more and found functuon used to disable safe mode
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/os/UserManager#DISALLOW_SAFE_BOOT
writing a simple app that acts as a device admin and implements this shouldn't be too hard but you could always remove app from device admin defeating the purpose

Nice, thanks for your effort.
I will try it with family link first and see if it works for me.

no problem, if that doesn't work for you i think this function could be used together with device owner so you would only be able to defeat it with pc and adb
