    What ethernet to micro usb adaper works with samsung galaxy s5

    I was actually searching for a way to access USB Ethernet settings on my s5. That's when I came across this and about pissed myself laughing so hard at the prospect of WiFi being faster than an RJ45 cable. Sure, if it was like an ancient NIC card versus modern WiFi, but even the newest WiFi...

    Lol. I think public internet like hotels will run different for filtering reasons, but under normal circumstances - using equivalent WiFi and Ethernet cards, using same providers in the same location, wired will not only be faster, but more secure.

    Get package name of APK

    Well, yes... but how would I select an arbitrary APK for the package manager? I would think extracting the manifest would be messy... Say the APK is /sdcard/download/somefancyapp.apk, I want to retrieve the package name from it.

    Get package name of APK

    I am making a "force installer" that copies the selected APK to /data/app or /system/app, depending on the user's choice, and fix the permissions and ownership. However, this leaves one thing - it should be renamed like this: {PACKAGE_NAME}-{1|2}.apk So I have been searching on how I can extract...

    Google Play says there's no connection?

    I finally gave in and wiped the /data partition. It works now. So I have a theory: invalid permissions. Try CWM's "Fix Permissions" and if not get terminal, run `chown system:system /data/app-lib&&chown system:system /data/app-lib/*` Sincerely, Patrick Thomas (Timberwolf) Timberwolf Programmers...

    Google Play says there's no connection?

    I just found an interesting nugget of info. The Gmail app works. I don't use the Gmail app as I use K9 mail, but on a whim I tried it - and it worked. So now where does this lead... Edit: It seems the ONLY GApp not working is Google Play and it's derivatives - Google Play Music/Books/etc...

I have done the following: - Reinstalled GApps 4 times, the last 2 times I completely uninstalled them and used SD Maid to cleanup the mess before re-flashing GApps - Checked the time 27 times - Set the time to manual - The airplane mode thing - Cleared the...

    Completely remove WiFi/3G/2G/Text Messaging

    It probably sounds odd but I want to completely remove the drivers and apps related to connection, other than USB. I have root and installed terminal emulator. So how do I do it?
