Urgent Regarding a very aggressive app! - Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G

"Droidassistant" is an app that steals your info and before you know it you are getting phone calls, emails, and text messages all from foreign numbers. It happened to me and had to change my number, email, and anything that was stored on my phone.
I have forwarded this info to Google, but I know there are enough people here to pass the word!
Here is the link, DO NOT DOWNLOAD!!!!

Have you successfully side loaded any apps, is it enabled on your device?

You will need to enable non market apps

You have to enable sideloading. Search for it on youtube. There are a couple videos on how to do it. Or follow the above link. Att keeps us away from bring able to set the option to side load.

Yeah I know. You have to enable sideloading, or you can only use the apps from the market.

Did you set up any tracking on it? Samsung dive, or Norton or something?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
it totally depends on what features you enabled on that phone when you had it. If none.. oops
else give the IMEI to cops.. they can track it in their own way

If you have more than one notification, swipe away the top one. The rest teleport to the top with no animation. That alone has me back on 4.1.2
Sent from my HTCONE using xda app-developers app
not sure if its related but ever since i updated all my contact photos in the text message app that were linked to my friends facebook pics are all now blank and i cant get them to come back and stay, i went into the facebook app and "sync with existing contacts" and i went into settings and synced facebook contacts in there also
I don't know ifthis is a bug, but what ifs the purpose of the day dream setting. My phone didn't fully charge last night, probably because the screen kept coming on. Other than that I don't really notice anything that is greatly different. I am however hoping that the no SIM card issues are fixed.

There are no bugs. And not sure what the Hell this guy keeps saying about notifications teleporting to the top without animation??

If you're in the Twitter beta, you can't get Twitter to show up in blinkfeed. Best way around it is uninstall all the updates, link your account in blinkfeed and then update to the beta again.

I asked in another thread, but it might get more answers here. On 4.3, I've had the stock music app reset the volume to all the way down/off twice. I'm using google Play music to see if I can get the same issue on that as well. I'm curious as to if anyone else has seen this particular issue.

That's not the ROM problem. That is your phone/sim issue. I believe most people have resolved it by taking out the sim, cleaning it, blowing out the contacts, and re-seating.
The firmware seems to cause a swap for those who did and did not have the purple camera issue. I didn't before, have it now. Boss had it before, doesn't now.

I had the no SIM card error pop up, rebooted and it's gone. Been getting a weird Wi-Fi disconnect issue but it could probably just be my router. Other than that, no issues.

The option to toggle whether open wifi connections are available is not working it is permanently turned on even after factory reset. Also roaming guards cannot be toggled off and alot of apps force close after closing them but that one could be they are not updated for 4.3 yet.

The last time I went to XDA through an app I used Tapatalk instead of XDA because I already use Tapatalk for all the other forums. I did buy the XDA app to support XDA, I just don't like keeping so many different apps all for forums. I found that the Tapatalk app doesn't crash when I browse on it, if you wanted to try that?
i've noticed that it crashes when you are giving to many inputs i.e. tapping too much. If you avoid this, the app works well.
There is also an issue of tap detection. when i try to reply to someone i have to tap on the post below the one desired. :/ but it doesnt crash the app... so thats a plus right?

Appreciate it. Yeah, I've never quite gotten used to Facebook, still keep forums I've been on for years.... Tapatalk is a really nice way to organize them all. The only thing that drives me nuts is that when you go to download a file off of a forum it opens a browser which kind of disrupts the flow, but I think XDA app did the same thing. That would be a tremendously useful thing for the XDA app to do is manage XDA downloads, but for all I know it does that now, I haven't used the XDA app in awhile. These ATT ROMs are around a gig sometime... Hell to download on a mobile phone just because so many things seem to be able to break the download. And the download managers seem to hiccup sometimes with the site that are primarily used for hosting, don't know why.
I bought the xda premium app a couple years ago to show my support. But it does suck on this phone. Doesn't show pictures corectly. The search function is not very helpful. When I open it if it's been in the the background for a while it won't connect to the server to refresh. I have to close it and open it again. Also when leaving the app the animation lags really bad. I always thought it ironic that the XDA app was so buggy lol
**side note- I don't know the first thing about making apps or how hard they are to debug and make run smoothly on all devices. So I'm not hating. Just throwing it out there...
