[Q] Application taking screenshots of phone. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hi everyone,
So I have my Dropbox camera upload on to increase my limit (I use GDrive as well) and I just found out something I find peculiar but which might be super ovious to others.
The thing is in camera uploads, I see that a ton of phone screenshots have been taken. I haven't taken them myself so I find I tried doing a search but in vain.
Does anybody have knowledge of what process or application is doing that? I tried looking in permissions and didnt see it (I have a LOT of apps installed so quite the challenge.) I also did a google search and a forum search but anything with "take screenshot" or "taking screenshots" directs me towards "how to" and not "what is".
Thanks in advance for the help.
For reference, I was on ICS (4.0.4?) until the maguro Jellybean (4.1.1) update came in. My phone was previously rooted and I had lost root with update so I rerooted (was a bit of a challenge as the su.zip that I used previously wasn't working but the one found in the rooting guide did).
Thanks,
Steven

[Q] Beginner ? - Flash and Marketplace

I want to preface my questions by fully acknowledging my complete ignorance on this subject. Nothing is worse than someone who won't do their own leg work. I've hesitated posting these questions just because I didn't want to waste anyone's time. However, after spending literally hours I just ran out of options. I'm turning to the geniuses on XDA for some help.
I have the CDMA (Sprint) version of the Touch Pro2. I just installed the latest 2.2 build (the one that supports the external speaker).
There are 2 questions.
1. Is accessing the Marketplace for paid apps possible with the TP2 and this build of Android? If so, what changes do I need to make to my device to enable that capability. Right now I can only see free apps.
2. I was trying to get Flash to work. It doesn't show up in the Marketplace. I tried to install the apk file from a thread on this forum (can't post the link as a new user). However, I received a generic failed installation message. I also tried using SkyFire 2.3 (BETA). But when I navigate to a site with Flash on it I see a little box telling me to download Flash Player.
I really appreciate any help that I can get on this. Again, I apologize if I missed earlier discussions on these topics.
For the paid apps you have to download the market enabler. It's in the faq http://sites.google.com/site/androidport/faq Look for "I can't see any paid apps available for purchase in the Market."
I don't know if you can get flash enabled because we haven't got 3d working yet.
Thanks
Thank you very much. I really appreciate your time in answering the questions. I'm installing Market Enabler now.

[Q] Stock ROM + 5 point multitouch?

I'm more than likely rooting my Evo shortly.
I'm trying to determine if I'll even be able to accomplish what I want from the root, can anyone help me out with the following questions?
1) Can I run the stock HTC rom with a kernel that will allow more than two point multitouch?
2) If the above setup is not possible is there something very similar?
Overall my performance and battery life has been great with the latest update, I'd just like some customization options and superior multitouch.
I've been doing google and forum searches on this topic on and off for a while and find it difficult to sort out what information is current, most of the results with solutions are from before the latest OTA with the 30fps cap removed.
I'm also unsure what rooting is going to do to all my paid apps that are not associated with android market (gameloft for example)
Edit/
it seems I won't be rooting tonight afterall; Unrevoked is offline.

Problem opening dialler and contacts

Hello,
I updated to this firmware here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933555
Everything seemed to go fine, it updated fine, however, I'm now having a problem with opening my dialler and contacts. It says that the application is not installed whenever I click on contacts, and when I go into my dialler I can enter part of a number, and then it throws me out. I'm also having trouble connecting to my PC over wi-fi, however my wi-fi works on it.
Is there any way that someone could help me with this? I have tried searching the forum, however the search function appears to be down.
Thank you in advance.
You flashed a preview build that has been "leaked on a Chinese forum".
I'm not at all an expert when it comes to Android internals, but my judgment tells me, you kind of have to expect those kind of ROMs to have bugs.

Vielen Dank.
I have installed another rom and I now have my contacts back and I can dial again as well.
I'm glad I haven't messed up my Defy, only got it today!
Gern geschehen .
Another info that could be useful for you: custom ROMs that use the leaked Chinese Froyo FW can destroy your camera flash if you don't got a Chinese version of the phone. The sticky thread in the development forum contains more details on this topic.

[Q] CM10: App disappeared and not reinstallable

Hi there fellows,
first of all, I wanted to thank all of you for the work you do on our nice phone: Developers, supporters, everyone: You've all been a great help for me
Now I come to a problem I've experienced since a few days (since I updated to FXP152 [CM10], to be exact. Reverting to FXP151/150 didn't solve the problem): "Poweramp Unlocker" just disappeared from my installed apps. This is quite a nasty problem, since I bought the unlocker a while ago and I just love Poweramp! In a few days this problem will get worse as I won't be able to use Poweramp anymore
Here's logcat: [ATTACHED] (package can't be installed to /mnt/asec/com.... for whatever reason)
Here's a screenshot: [ATTACHED] (Translation: Unknown errorcode while installing the app: "-24")
Here's a link to a bug report of which I _THINK_ it could be relevant: [Issue 34880 @ android bug tracker, unfortunately I am not allowed to post links ] (strangely, only the pa unlocker is affected for me, other apps still work fine)
So, if anyone has an idea what I could do now, I'd be very very happy The bug report suggests that it could work to install the apk (without taking the playstore-way). Since I actually bought the app, this could work, right? Does the LicenseChecker-API always return a valid license as long as I bought it, even when I installed the same apk I'd get through playstore myself? And, last but not least, could anyone who bought the app through playstore send me the unlocker apk file so I can try? I already tried to get in touch with the developer, but unfortunately even after 10 emails either he really doesn't understand what my problem is or he's just upset he hasn't the right "pre-defined-answer-emails" and doesn't want to write a new one
Thank you very very much in advance!!
All I can say is that I've experienced the same thing, only way for me too fix it was to wipe everything and reinstall.

Please Help me play my favorite game

I have a Galaxy Tab S 10.5(SM-T807P) Running Stock 5.0.2
I'm trying to find a way to get this device to play XCOM Enemy within, I've tried to see if there is a thread on XDA supporting this idea before posting this, if missed it and there is a link that someone can provide I would greatly appreciate it. However if there is not one I would like some help with someone who has some free time to assist.
I've never rooted before but I am not opposed to the idea(if it would help me accomplish this) with some instructions on how do it.
Thanks!
Have you tried finding the apk file and installing it manually? I've installed one or two apps this way and had no issues on my Tab S
(you don't need to have a rooted device to do this)
Edit: XCOM and EW are BY FAR two of my favourite games. And XCOM 2 is definitely in the same league
