want to setup a rigid alarm system - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

here is the case , i want to get up early morning but cannot , so i figured out that i will use puzzle alarm clock with some nfc tags and will be able to get up early since nfc tags are placed very far from bed . the routine was working fine but then one day i deleted the app in the morning and now every morning instead of getting up i delete the app and go back to sleep . To solve this problem i decided that i will find a app that assigns a password to delete this app and he password will be set by my friend so i dont know the password and i cannot delete the app , but then i started to switching of my phone in the morning and i cannot solve this . so if anyone can help me with this .i would prefer to get a password given to the app and power button so that neither can be deleted to switched off .
please help
regards

I think you need an alarm clock inside a safe.

How would you hear it?

He could set up a Z-Wave network in his home with some motion detectors and a 120 db siren hidden in the attic.
The siren would be triggered when the motion detectors does not detect movement in the house (OP sleeping) at some specific time in the morning. He could then use a NFC tag with Tasker to send an intent to his Z-Wave network to shut the siren but that NFC tag would be located 1/4 mile away from his home to be 100% sure he's awake. If the tag is not scanned fast enough with his phone, the z-wave network could trigger a pellet stove igniter screwed in a gallon of kerosene hidden under his bed.
or he could go to bed earlier.
:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

This is hilarious.

Up all night on XDA.

If your phone is rooted, you can mess with files in a way that causes the alarm uninstall to fail. This might work (but might also break your system if you try to uninstall it):
- Change the alarm to a system app (a pain to uninstall)
- Use the shell command "chattr +i /system/app/YourAlarmApp.apk". This means it can't be removed or changed. (It also means you may need to reformat /system next time you want to flash a custom ROM.)
But you really need to grow up. I can't help with how to do that, but this is a phone, not a hand grenade. There will always be a way to disarm it. I made a personal rule that I will always turn off my alarm in a normal way (dismiss/snooze), never using tricks to quickly silence it when it's supposed to be ringing. You just need to stop trying to sabotage your own good intentions.

But then isn't there any parental control app that lets you stop from uninstalling an app and switching off the phone . that can help me to a very great extent .

HOWTO enable swap
First you need a terminal emulator this can be downloaded for free in the android market.
You can use cd to change directory and ls to show all folders and files.
Navigate to the place where the swapfile is located (mmcard) and type swapon swapfile.
reboot
Turn off locks screen when holding red call button

I also get this issue.
Seems that the first time you download something, it wont work, it will get stuck on "Starting Download", and it doesn't come up in the notifications.
Just restart the phone and boot android again then second or third time it will eventually work.
This also happens if you press install then your 3G connection drops out (went through a tunnel) and even when u get a siginal again, it just sits there on "Starting" so you have to cancel it and start it again.
But with the one via WiFi and browsing the market and everything else works, just restart the phone and boot android again, and it should automatically start the download. If not, just go back into the marketplace then go to the "Downloads" section and start it again.
Its a bit annoying.

The new release is very nice, slick and stable. My major problem is the same, backlight can't be turned off and thus battery used up quickly. Hope this can be fixed soon.
Another related problem is the battery seems not charged under Android, I charged it overnight, quick get warning of low battery just after using it for 10 min.
Even so, still a very good job, thank you.

battery charge sensor doesn't work properly in xperia android, so just because android is reporting low battery doesn't mean your battery is actually low

I actually did this, so i got to recopy the files over, and then wait for the swap file to be created?
When I'm using a swap file, it get faster right?
swapfile makes android slower, but it increases available memory

[Q] Google now wont work

so this has been bugging from the moment i got the phone. i cant make google now to work. ive searched all over the internet and no solution. here's what's happening.
everytime i open google now (long press home button/google apk from app drawer) it will just go straight to some screen that i think is the old google search

no cards no anything. If i press the mic, google now works properly and for example if I say weather it will show me the weather card (and if i restart the app the weather card wont be there) or if i say call/text someone it will work. what wont work is the reminders. if i try to set a reminder it will ask me to opt in to google now (even though i already have) and if i tap on opt in it will just take me to the same screen.
on google now settings there is no settings about cards or a way to turn off google now. i got only three options voice, phone search and privacy & accounts. ive done all the settings correct (ticked all the location options on latitude etc, ticked to search on google.com domain, chose us english as language and set home address) and still it wont work.
i already tried to force stop the app and clear cache and data, uninstalled updates and reinstalled, reboted phone and nothing seems to work.
the first time i opened google now it informed me about it and tapped on yes im in and after that it went to that wrong screen (with no cards, no google above the search bar etc).
does anyone have any idea how to fix it?

Edit- im pretty sure i turned it on on first use, but still if its not the old search and its just turned off i cant turn it back on, there isnt an option to do it. and when i talk to it and ask questions it talks back... doesnt that mean its on?
Also, some languages do not support Google Now. Changing your system language to English USA will get it to work. Don't ask me why. English Malaysia doesn't work but Singapore does...

Galaxy Gear ring and vibrate even if the phone is in blocking mode

Hi,
I was wondering if I'm the only one but I noticed a pretty annoying bug (or at least it looks like it is). Let say you have the Blocking Mode setup on your phone (S4, S3 or Note ) from say 10PM to 7AM then no notifications will ring on the phone, in fact the phone is silent. This is awesome and let me sleep in peace (I work in a global company where my inbox never stop to ring) but the Galaxy Gear is still getting notifications and ring/vibrate which is terribly annoying. You have to either manually put it to "Vibrate" and then remove the watch (Unfortunately I feel when It vibrates during the night and it wakes me up) or you have to simply switch off the watch.
Anybody have the same problem? Known workaround?

You know I always assumed that it would work exactly the way you imagined it would; so in fact I was finding it funny the Pebble needed a "Do not Disturb" mode. But, after your post I found the same problem as yours; blocking mode is not respected.
One idea I can think of is to stop the Sync at night, or change the e-mail checking time in non-priority hours if you are using the native E-mail client. Can't think of anything else; perhaps it's time Samsung opened up the development for the watch so people can start coding these kind of apps.

Right but then I need to turn off SMS, GMail and so forth. Well I hope the SDK will be public because so far the apps are not great . In the meantime I will switch it off .

Turning off Sync should turn off all apps like Gmail that respect that feature; as for SMS, I have no idea how you can block that
My hunch is Samsung is about to push quite a few apps very soon, because there are a number of gear manager updates now. It's rather unfortunate that for the powerful hardware the gear is, the software is the biggest road-block. Open the SDK, Samsung guys!

Could you not set up tasker to automaticly cut your bt/sync between those same hours? Which should stop the texts/calls etc? Im not sure because Iv'e not used it before and don't get my gear for another week, but its something I will need to get working aswel

Tasker or any such app should kill the sync but blocking the calls and sms isn't straight forward. Now, that I am typing this in perhaps one could switch to Airplane mode in the night to block everything.
However, I would prefer the way the blocking mode works, ringing only for calls in my contacts for emergency and block everything else during the night. My original idea was to sleep with the watch on for such things, but the vibration is not strong enough to wake me and it's unlikely it would wake anyone..
Notice this issue on day one of the release, I have been hoping that an update would have fixed this by now, but no such luck. I just turn my gear to vibrate at night and set it on a cloth as to not vibrate on the nightstand.
What about setting the gear to mute? I think this also stops notifications coming through?

This isn't a big deal. Press and hold home, double tap the volume button to go from Sound >> Vibrate >> Mute. Done. Reverse in the morning. Takes 1-2 seconds.

Wouldn't it be wiser to open a chat on some service that:
1. has a mobile app (so we can access it from phone too)
2. allows us to send links?
For example Google Hangouts or something like that.

The problem with mobile apps is the fact that you need to make an account, not many people like that. Second thing is, when flashing, having an app on the phone is pretty useless. Third problem is with things like hangouts, your personal profile is exposed and I'm sure not many people would like that ._.
Anyways, I have a surprise in store for you guys and the dev :3, will put up the link when it is done.

it is happening, Nougat for Verizon S6 Edge

https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-galaxy-s6-edge-update/
Because I switched to Tmobile, I can not upgrade by OTA. I am waiting for the samsung upgrade tool. Right now, it does not show the new software available, always shows repair option.
Dang, that wasn't there 45 min ago when I looked
Still can't get the update on mine. It keeps saying "Service unavailable software update is temporarily unavailable. Try again later"

Yes, I am sure the servers are overwhelmed. You will need to wait until the OTA server is not overly saturated.

I got it from Verizon Software Upgrade tool. So far so good. I like the battery settings.

After I set the battery usage back form "Mid" to original. I can receive gmail instantly by app Inbox. Probably I setup somewhere to get only 1 notice from Inbox, no duplicate notice from gmail app.
But I can get email instantly, that is important. I believe if you set battery usage to "Mid", it blocks background app to connect to internet, may delay your email notice.

Has the update already been applied? In older system builds, it would ask what you wanted to do and there were three options (first one being "no" or do not apply). I am guessing now you are faced with two options, which are to set a time to update (with a checkbox to automatically apply it without prompting you) or apply now. I have not automatically received the download yet, but whenever it does I will be sure to say no or keep scheduling a time and make sure that box is not checked. Maybe, eventually, it will provide a "no, I will apply it manually later" option but I doubt it. If anyone has other solutions, please chime in.

I didn't apply update yet. But the only option now is to delay it by selecting "later." I've heard that eventually it will install meaning that there are limited amounts of time you can postpone. I found a solution which is to disable these packages.

Nice one. How did you disable these, with an app such as Package Disabler Pro or BK Package Disabler?
guys has anyone noticed the change in there sound quality??? i updated my s6 edge to nougat 7.0 and am noticing the sound quality of my phone has been changed. before it was thick and was like tuk tuk type of sound but after the update its gone thin. there are settings called sound quality and effects but i still cant manage to get back the sound quality which i had on 6.0 marshmallow. are u guys also noticing this change in there sound? or its just me? plz pay attention on ur devices sound quality and let me know if my speaker is damaged or what? and whats the way to get back that thick quality sound on my s6 edge?
Have any of you guys that are on Nougat for the G925V seen and tried out the CFautoroot that's on Chainfire's website?? It's for the Verizon model..
Update: Apparently there's something wrong with Chainfire's website since he's moving everything to a better system and it's not filtering out the CFautoroot for the devices that have locked bootloaders so this obviously isn't going to work so don't try!! I already tried on one and it didn't work!

thank you for the suggestion but mine was already set to "off." it started working normally for several days after doing nothing to the phone but now as of this morning it isn't auto syncing again. i haven't changed anything either which is more puzzling to me.
I will look into this right now. I'd love to update my S6edge a bit more.
It might not work this second. But we might still find an eng kernel yet or a good exploit.
The Exynos7420 board has seen way more exploits in the last year than any other devices.

The app that I used is called package disabler pro. Simply use the search function and it will show you the two packages I've mentioned. If the update automatically downloaded to your phone like mine did, you can simply restart your phone in recovery mode (hold down power button, volume up and home during boot up when you see the Samsung Galaxy logo stuff) and clear/delete cache.
If you want to confirm that you did everything right, go to settings and system updates. The settings app should crash because that option is disabled.

Thanks! It is good to know the downloaded update is stored within the system cache (/cache) and can be easily deleted using recovery mode's wipe cache partition (format). Also, LOL I will be relieved to see the app crash. :victory: Edit: @wolferno Are you using the current version of Package Disabler Pro? In recent months people have been complaining about the software developer removing ability to disable certain packages (at Samsung's request) so they will no longer appear in the list (along with no changelog). System Updates is one of them so maybe they recently re-added it? I read this from reviews on google play store. Also, you might find this post interesting. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69997702&postcount=11 I have the suspicion there may be more to disable to prevent other updates and patches from sneaking in.
Hy guys
I'm italian and I use my GS6 Edge Verizon (SM-G925V)
I have update my smarthphone to Nougat with OTA
All it's ok but there is only problem: the screen rotation doesn't work (gyroscope problem)
