I did not click on your link, however, the Pandora app is pretty good. I no longer use it because I favor the TuneIn radio app, but for what Pandora does, it does quite well. Give it a try if you haven't already.

That doesn't surprise me at all. I've heard a ton of weird rumors about Pandora. Pandora also has an excessive amount of permissions, in my opinion. Shady stuff.

Very shady, I guess that's why they're in a law suit now. Stupid companies selling our personal data for money. I think android apps are notorious for this. MOST OF THEM

Folks, it's not the app.
It's the ad networks that are used by the app.
I emailed back and forth with the CTO of DI Radio (DI.fm, SKY.fm) and it basically came down to that while DI Radio wasn't looking at my cell tower location, carrier name, and ESN, the ad network was to track me, but he said they wouldn't change their ads just because of that.
However, after this fiasco with Pandora... Maybe they will.

I should have been more specific about the link being from engadget. However thought it was an interesting story I would share. Makes me feel invaded. I don't want to feel paranoid.

You really should never feel safe over the air and on the internet. Even encrypted stuff is just a hacker away from being cracked. You do everything you do online, like paying bills, at a big risk. You are just lucky that most hackers don't want the $5 most people have in their bank accounts.

I really don't see an issue here. It's way overblown. It's the price you pay for an ad-supported app, and I think it's a small price.
So they want to know if I'm male or female? Yeah, I don't need to see Tampax ads.
They want to know my birthday? OK. I give that out at Chilli's to get a free order of nachos on my birthday. And I don't need to see Depends ads for another 40-50 years or so (I hope).
Location? Well, OK, I can see that this makes people a little uneasy, but if they want to send me a coupon when they see I'm near a strip club, I'm probably grateful to receive it.
I'm not saying people shouldn't think about these things. But I don't see how anyone could steal my identity with this information.

Wifi problem SOLVED (acc'd to sprint rep)

I just had the best conversation ever with a sprint rep. This was an in-store tech person, mind you, so all of my facial expressions were more than obvious.
The conversation went like this:
Hi, my E4GT is having some wifi connectivity issues. When I try to connect, it says connected but then keeps scanning, and in fact, it's not connected at all because I can't get a webpage to...
(Interrupting me) WAIT RIGHT THERE...let me see the front of your phone, turn it around! (I do so.) Yup, that's the problem...you downloaded something to make your ANDROID phone look like a WINDOWS phone.
You mean a launcher?
Yes, it's an unapproved app, and you corrupted your whole system. You need to delete that and hard reset. Don't make it look like it's not an Android phone...otherwise you corrupt the system.
(My face has a wtf are you serious look on it at this point.) Oooooh-kay. Um, are you sure?
YES! ABSOLUTELY! Also, I bet you have checked off install apps from unknown sources, don't you?
Yes...so?
THERE YOU GO AGAIN --- COMPLETELY CORRUPTED YOUR ENTIRE SYSTEM. Now, anyone anywhere can just go into your phone and access everything. That's why you can't get online.
(Now my face has the wtf look on it as well as a little bit of anger from this rep having somehow survived this long in her life, and in doing so, disproved darwinism.) So, you're telling me installing the amazon appstore breaks our phones?
YES, it's an unapproved app, just like that one that made your phone look like a windows phone!
But, that app's from the google market...??
I BET YOU'RE TETHERING TOO, AREN'T YOU?
(Damn, she got me there.) No! What is tethering?
Someone will come up and tell you to tether...go right ahead and do it if you want, but you'll be corrupting your entire phone again and it won't work.
Ok, thanks, this has been a big help.
You bet! Thanks for coming in!

I once had a verizon droid incredible with a screen that literally moved when you touched it (this screen hardware itself physically moved, not anything on the screen). Took it into a Verizon store and the rep seriously asked me "did you try doing a battery pull?" I was just like wtf does a loose screen have to do with a battery pull.
I don't know where they find these people. When I apply for jobs there I never even get an interview, I think I fail their personality testing during the application.

I don't even understand how people like that can get hired. You would think they would require at least some basic knowledge of the industry and products. I am actually looking to change careers and would like to get a position managing a sprint store but I can't seem to find an opening in my area because they keep hiring people like this. I have been to four stores in my area and every single one has not one person who seems to know much of anything. Maybe its just the central florida area.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Normally, I would say this story seems too far out there, and that there is no way someone is that clueless as an employee at the Sprint store.
However, I have dealt with some of the Sprint store employees and I guess it is feasible.
Either way, thanks for posting as it was an entertaining post.

Thanks op that was classic, I seem to run into these people all the time. Awesome

I had a similar thing happen at Radio Shack. I had bought the Photon there and before my 30 days were up I wanted to trade it for our SII...on launch day they didn't have any so I told them I wanted to return it and go to Sprint to get the phone. The salesman said why...the Photon is dual core and a much better phone...I immediately told him it was none of his business and then proceeded to rattle off the specs of the SII..he went into the back room. These people are clueless!

Haha I purchased an app called HVAC Buddy for work and a sprint tech told me it broke the gps in my Moment. Wtf

All of FL, bro...I'm in the ft laud area myself, and it's harder to find a glimmer of intelligence in the general population than it is to find a guy who doesn't shave his chest here.
anyway, just fyi, it's an absolutely true story. the worst part, which I forgot to mention in the OP, is that a couple minutes before this dolt began "helping" me, I was talking with another customer who had an E4GT with some crazy problems (phone with a mind of it's own...would just randomly open up apps and close them and restart...) and I was telling her about this forum and how her problems were atypical and how she should just get a new E4GT...and then every time this stupid, stupid customer service rep talked, I had to just look over at this lady and hope she knew how completely retarded the rep was.

No need to apologize on their behalf...it's the same at every job and every profession. It's just a shame that people don't say, "sorry, I don't know," when they don't know. But, on the bright side, it does sometimes make for some funny ish when they talk out their ass

Walked into my local repair center and showed the Guy my OG Evo, told him that I was having some issues with the fact that my $400+ phone had a crack in the casing near the volume and power buttons. He immediately told me "you dropped your phone and it cracked. that's not covered sorry." and proceeded to the next customer. I walked up, showed him again my phone was in an otterbox defender case, had NO signs of damage... mind you I kept the case on since day 1 and I had never dropped the phone....
He looks at me with the straightest face and says "it is because you are using a Facebook IM application which causes the problem." at this point I laughed in his face, left the store and proceeded down the block to the next repair center.
This Guy still works there....

Wildfire S is Stolen

Yesterday, at school, my beloved Wildfire S was stolen by a b*****d. I won't say the full story, it's too long and irrelevant. But anyway, I'm extremely angry, I didn't see this bloody mother f**k and I don't have a clue where he is. All I want to do is find him and let me and my mates give him hell. Call me sadistic, but no one steals what matters to me and gets away clean, or alive, with it. Moving on.
The first time I called my WFS from another mobile, it rang, but obviously the ***** didn't pick it up. He was probably trying to crack my pattern password. When I got home, I rang it again, but he turned it off. Since then, I've been phoning and phoning and phoning but it's off now. I can't track it or anything. The school are just picking on me for putting it in my pocket, and they're being absolutely f***ing useless. They won't check the CCTV properly, they're putting all the blame on me, they're not bothering to search people's bags (on the day it was stolen). They're just being a bunch of f**ks. Normally I don't swear so much, but I'm angry.
Anyway, I pushed PlanB to it, so if he puts a SIM with a data connection on it I can get a location and kill him personally. But right now that's just a dream. Because the school aren't helping, I'm filing a police report.
So yeah, this thread is rather pointless, but I gotta deal with the rage somehow, and XDA is a place full of helpful and understanding (in most cases) people.
Is there absolutely anything more I can do to get my phone back. I'm in the UK. Any suggestions? I really need my phone back, my dad will kill me because we're in a financial situation and things just aren't working out. BTW, the ****er also stole my Oyster card, my gum, and my Smints. *****.

That's messed up, sorry to here that mate, hope you get it back, good luck to you.

I'd kill him just for the smints.

It has root privilegies, so I can fully control my phone from their website in case it's stolen.Even if he/she changes SIM card, it will automatically send me a new number.
It's a smart phone, you should have had some kind of security on it.

They cannot search bags, they have no right to. So they're not being a "bunch of f**ks", they're just following the law. Also death threats are a very serious thing indeed, I'd remove that if I were you.

The oyster card is traceable if used. Good luck!

Exactly. WTF? You know it's not a real death threat. It's just anger. If someone cheated on you, killed a friend, stole a possession, wouldn't you be angry? It's human nature. If something that makes generate a strong feeling of annoyance, or despair, then that would be anger. And it's a school, it's they're job to make sure everything is working out. And they are allowed to check bags if something has been stolen. Just like at a shop, or airport. If the victim of a bag search is reluctant to have their bag searched, than it just gives the searcher more of a reason to mark them as a suspect. Whereas if the person is OK with a bag search, it means they have nothing to hide, and they want to be in the clear.
Thanks for the good luck comments guys. Today I filed a police report on it. I'm having some officers come round tomorrow, so they can get enough information for the report. The school claimed that they checked the CCTV, but they had no luck finding it. On the field there are plenty of places to put cameras, so they should of. It's in their budget, and technically part of their duty to protect students. The police said thet'd also go round to the school, to do things themselves, properly.
Again,thanks for the nice comments guys. I hope I get my phone back. Like I said, XDA is full of helpful and understanding people (most of the time). LOL.

This is true. But, I can see where bad wolf is coming from.
Plan b is your best bet man. You could try push cerberus to the phone but you would not be able to set it up remotely. If I was you I would watch plan b like a hawk and hope it comes up with something. Also, start to think constructively about who would have had the oppertunity to take the device. Is it possible that your pocket has just emptied and your phone is sitting out of charge somewhere?
Retrace your classes, think of who you sit beside, who bumped into you, who knows your password or sits close enough to you to sus it out. Worst case scenario is if someone has it has android experience. Then they could flash a new rom and not even cerberus could help. But, you should call your phone carrier. Worst case scenario they should be able to black list the imei and then it cannot to my knowledge be used as a phone.
Next time get cerberus and some zipped pockets man. I know the hurt your feeling, theft is not cool. Espically when its something you've poured part of your life into.

How dare him/her!

I lost my phone months ago too. I had Prey installed on it, but I never enabled the option to alert a friend when the SIM is switched (biggest mistake I made on this phone :crying.
You can still push apps to your phone with the Android Market website.
I think I read somewhere there is an app that can send you the GPS location if you send a specific SMS to the phone and if Data Mobile and GPS are enabled. I forgot the name of this one... (I'm not sure of this)
In my case, I was already screwed because the SIM card was switched just after I lost it and I still don't know the phone number of the guy who is actually using it. >_<
The police isn't helpful in this case (at least in France...). They won't do a thing without the thief phone number. They don't care of GPS location because it's too difficult to find the right guy.
What I did on my new phone :
Install Prey
Install Avast with the Anti-Theft module
And enable the fu***ng option to alert a friend if the SIM card is switched, in these two apps, to get the phone number of the person who switched it.
(There are several others cool settings if your phone is rooted)
I won't do the same mistake twice. :good:

It's a crown sourced navigation. It won't tell you where every cop or traffic jam is, someone has to report it first.

I just start using it and like it.

This with Google Now will be awesome since I will know when things are backed up and adjust route.

I love it as well.

[Q] Blocking guarddad off on my phone

Hey guy, so my mom is super protective and all this junk and im 16 years old and a guy im not that bad of a kid so theres no need for this plus a total invasion of privacy.

I had to Google it to find it, it's an interesting program. This isn't going to be what you want to hear, but it seems she is looking out for you. Moms do that, all through life. With all of the horrible things online she is worried about you. My suggestion, instead of going behind her back, is to talk with her about it. I don't think you will get the help you were expecting from this place. XDA is for development, not hacking.

That's sounds a little over-protective to me. Even texts I understand but pictures? That's a little invasive. Anyway, think u could provide a link? I couldn't find what he was referring to.

It's actually called DadGuard. It is invasive, that's why I suggested he needs to talk to them about it.

Download the file I posted above and flash it. Problem solved

Wow. This app extremely blurs the line between overprotectiveness and outright 24/7 monitoring.
But won't they notice when they stop receiving the logs of everything you do? I mean, even antivirus programs will notify you once the online service detects that you haven't used the app in several days and such. I'm fairly sure this app would have some sort of safeguard like that.

I was thinking the same thing with regards to both parts of this post. However, I hope this brat teenager does flash this "fix" and get in trouble. If he thinks he is so wise to the ways of the world and is so capable of taking care of himself, he can feel free to move out/get kicked out and then:
Pay rent/mortgage
Pay utilities/electric/water/etc.
Pay for groceries
Pay for car/insurance
Pay for TV/internet/etc.
Cook/clean/do laundry for himself
And oh yeah, presumably attend high school every day.
What an ungrateful little punk. He needs to understand that parents have the best interests of their kids at heart, and parents have already gone through teenage life themselves.
