On Ice Cream Sandwich, I used to use an app called DS Super App2SD but it doesn't work on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. I'm using Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 running on Cyanogenmod 10.2 nightly (Android 4.3.1) I already tried the adb shell pm set-install-location to SD card location. It made everything worst by thinking my empty 32GB micro SD was full. So I set it back to 0.

Every since my Galaxy S4 phone was upgraded to Android 4.3 (Verizon), I have had a problem disabling the swipe lock screen. I go to Settings -> My Device -> Lock Screen -> Screen Lock: - If I set the option to 'Swipe', I get the swipe lock screen, as expected. - If I set the option to 'None', I **still** get the swipe lock screen. - If I set the option to 'PIN', I get the swipe lock screen **and** the PIN lock screen. (It is annoying to unlock the phone, and more so when I receive a call.) I test this by using the power key. Is there a bug in the software or is there no legitimate way to disable the very annoying swipe lock / swipe lock screen? Is there a 3rd party way to allow a PIN lock without having a swipe lock as well?

I have a Galaxy S3 I9300 from Telcel, Mexico running CyanogenMod 10.2.0, upgraded from 10.1.3 with the upgrade feature and using TWRP for this purpose. I am unable to download anything from the Play Store, the store loads but the apps won't download. I have flashed the gapps-20130813 package, cleared data and uninstalled updates from Play Store and Google Play Services, and it won't download yet. After googling around, I already cleared data on Google Play, Google Framework and Google Play Services, every single cache with Titanium Backup, cleaned up Dalvik cache, and removed and re-added my Google account. Still no luck. I also noticed the download notification briefly appearing for a split second when I tap Download on Google Play. Is there anything I can't do? I don't want to go through the hassle of backing everything up, deleting the entire data partition and restoring everything.

I often need to use a timer while making phone calls. No matter what timer I use they never play the alarm sound while you are on the phone, they simply emit a brief "beep" and vibrates (if the timer was configured to vibrate of course). I need an audible alarm. Is there any way to use a timer with an audible alarm while making a phone call? It used to be possible, a few Android updates back (can't remember which Android version), but not any more it seems, at least not out of the box. I've tried the stock Clock app, Ovo Timer and Timer (by Opoloo). In all three cases alarm signals are only played as expected while not making a phone call.

Facebook was crashing on Huawei Y530-U00 on Android 4.3, so I wiped it and tried to install it again. Play Store says that "Your device isn't compatible with this version". I tried what is being said in the Facebook support: https://www.facebook.com/help/instagram/231705083624002 but it didn't work. What can I do?

I have a Galaxy S4 (GT-9505) here where Bluetooth is turning itself off. Sometimes this happens after a few seconds. Other times it takes longer or even stays on. Also, if it stays on can't find other devices with turned-on visibility. Here is the log: http://pastebin.com/MP3YyQxS I cut a lot of unrelated stuff out and it starts right before I activate Bluetooth and ends right after it deactivates itself Does anybody have similar experience?

I just discovered that if I set the alarm clock and then power off the phone (by holding the power button and then selecting "Power Off") the alarm will still go off when the time comes. Is this expected behavior? It makes me feel like "power off" doesn't actually power off the phone. I have a Huawei Y530-U051 running android 4.3.

I have Micromax A89 mobile with ICS 4.0.4 OS AND MTK 6577 processor. I would like to install Jellybean 4.2.2 OS on my MMX A89 device. Is it possible? Even I would like to install Kitkat 4.4 too if possible? 1. What are the steps to install Jellybean 4.2.2 (or 4.3) on my MMX A89 device (safer way to install)? 2. If I could able to install Jellybean 4.2.2 on MMX A89 then further it is possible to install Kitkat 4.4 in future? Can anybody help me for this?

I am trying to figure out if there is a method of installing Xposed framework on **stock ROM** without custom recovery (e.g CWM or TWRP). The conventional method that I am well familiar with is installing the framework via Xposed app on a rooted device. I researched a bit and most workarounds were promising although not successful: According to this source , the method involves setting the system partition writable then pushing the necessary files via adb commands however fails with Permission denied errors. I suspect bootloader issues (which seems to be locked) here but not very sure. The other way, described here doesn't need custom recovery. This involves installing a third party application (FlashFire) to flashed unsigned .zip but unfortunately seems to require root (from description). The last one involves using new systemless xposed framework but the problem is that it supports android 5+ versions. So is there any convenient way of installing xposed framework on **stock recovery without root**? **Edit** Following important discussions raised in comments, I guess I have to explain why I want to bypass root-based installation procedure, it's because the device in use is not rooted, so I need to use a non root installation mrthod. Contrary to the comments however, some users have used Xposed without **root**: > **Xposed only needs root access when you install** it, then everything > else is completely transparent to the user because the framework acts > as a **separate conduit** to the system -- it doesn't go through the usual > SU channels Also the device is running Android 4.3 stock

I have a Motorola Moto G with English set as the default language, but I also selected Polish as an alternative input option. However, when I change the keyboard input to Polish, English dictionary is still used for input correction and hints. How can I fix this?

I bought a tablet Samsung Nexus 10, it came with latest Android 4.3 installed. Android 4.2 and higher supports multiple user accounts which is awesome. My question is, if let's say I have Facebook application installed on two accounts, does it install it two times (taking 2x place necessary) or is it efficient and it installs it once and changes only login settings for separate users?

Starting last week, my HTC One running ARHD 31.5 keeps forgetting the default launcher. Every few minutes, it will forget the setting and ask me for a launcher when I hit the home button. So far, I haven't found a pattern yet. Here's what I've tried so far: - restarting the phone - removing the default setting via Settings > Apps and setting it fresh - tried different launchers to rule out the launcher deleting the settings - updating the ROM (seriously) It happens both when the phone is locked, or when I keep it unlocked and basically not doing anything but keeping the screen alive. After a few minutes, the default will be gone. Any ideas how to debug this are welcome.

I need to gather log info for QA testing. The settings menu "Bug Report" and the power menu "Bug Report" functions don't work for me on my Nexus 7 running Jellybean 4.3 (don't know if it ever worked because I just found out about the function). I get a popup saying "this will take a while..." and after that nothing. Scanning the file system, I don't see anything that looks like a screen capture, and no mail is sent out. (I can't get the magic {power/sound up/sound down} button combo to work either). The only way I can collect app logging info is by tethering the nexus 7 and using ADB. Any idea how to get the new bug report mechanism working or why it's not working would be appreciated.

I'm using Xperia M and I have installed ADB and turned on USB debugging, turned off my mobile, then hold the volume up button and connected the USB. I typed fastboot devices in cmd where I have my fastboot.exe, but it didn't type anything. No "(waiting for device)", no error, just nothing. The light on my mobile is blue like it has to be but it just not typing anything. How to use fastboot on Xperia M?

My girlfriend's new smartphone comes with preinstalled Swiftkey 4.1. She installed 5.0 (so she can download her dictionary from cloud), but the old version still exists. How can we uninstall, or update it? The phone has Android 4.3. She doesn't want to root it.

I have a Alcatel OneTouch Star, Im running Android Jellybean the phone has 8 or 4GB storage Im not too sure but the low down is when i go into settings and look at how much free space i have it starts at 2MB then it changes to something like 250MB within a second then it changes to 1.7GB after 2-3 seconds. I have uninstalled all things I can, except for Facebook, Instagram and Snap chat. Its not the actual notification that Is bothering me, its the fact that I have 1.7GB of free space but the system doesn't let me download anything because it says that I don't have enough free space, so I think you can see why that would get on my wik, so can anybody help me? It would be much help

Within the last few days my Nexus 4 has started behaving strangely. This is a completely stock Nexus 4 running the official 4.3 build. Not even bootloader unlocked. What happens is that random apps will begin crashing, usually Google apps like Gmail, Settings, etc. If I try to report the crash, the crash reporter also crashes. I plugged the phone in to check the logcat and all of the error messages are the same: FATAL EXCEPTION: main E/AndroidRuntime(31480): java.lang.IllegalStateException: Could not create an EGL context. eglCreateContext failed with error: EGL_SUCCESS E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.HardwareRenderer$GlRenderer.createContext(HardwareRenderer.java:1192) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.HardwareRenderer$GlRenderer.initializeEgl(HardwareRenderer.java:1044) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.HardwareRenderer$GlRenderer.initialize(HardwareRenderer.java:979) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.ViewRootImpl.performTraversals(ViewRootImpl.java:1536) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.ViewRootImpl.doTraversal(ViewRootImpl.java:1004) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.ViewRootImpl$TraversalRunnable.run(ViewRootImpl.java:5481) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.Choreographer$CallbackRecord.run(Choreographer.java:749) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.Choreographer.doCallbacks(Choreographer.java:562) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.Choreographer.doFrame(Choreographer.java:532) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.view.Choreographer$FrameDisplayEventReceiver.run(Choreographer.java:735) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.os.Handler.handleCallback(Handler.java:730) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.os.Handler.dispatchMessage(Handler.java:92) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.os.Looper.loop(Looper.java:137) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at android.app.ActivityThread.main(ActivityThread.java:5103) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invokeNative(Native Method) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:525) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit$MethodAndArgsCaller.run(ZygoteInit.java:737) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at com.android.internal.os.ZygoteInit.main(ZygoteInit.java:553) E/AndroidRuntime(31480): at dalvik.system.NativeStart.main(Native Method) Rebooting the phone temporarily solves the problem. Does anybody have any ideas? Thanks

I have Samsung I9300 Galaxy S III running on Android 4.3 JellyBean. I am unable to find a way to change the shortcuts on the lock screen. Here is the available settings: I tried all the settings, but it doesn't work. Could you guide me through how I can achieve this?

I read all other questions of "Insufficient storage available" but none of solution works for me. I have Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300). I have 5GB free space on internal memory. A couple days ago WhatsApp and Viber were gone (In the application manager instead WhatsApp I saw com.whatsapp.. same for viber- saw the package name and the two apps's size is 0) I tried the following solutions: 1. Clear cache of google play store, services, and also clear updates of those apps. 2. Got root access and delete com.whatsapp-2 folder from /data/app-lib as described at XDA 3. wipe cache partiotion via recovery 4. clear dalvik cache 5. Download manually the apk from whatsapp.com and not from Google Play 6. Backup WhatsApp from other device and restore with titanium backup to my device -same error... 7. change default install location with pm set-install-location to 0 then 1 then 2. none worked. 8. Deleted cache of all other apps in the device. I can install any other application from Play store, just viber and whatsapp causes the "Insufficient storage available" error. I don't want to do factory reset. Could you help me and suggest another solution, please?

As shown in below screenshot: is there a way to remove the notification header, or at least replace it with a transparent image, on Android 4.3? Screenshot (click for larger variant)
