[Q] Desktop-security password? - Galaxy Ace II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I want to root my Galaxy Ace 2. For that, I want to save all my App data, but for this I need my "Desktop-Security Password" (Settings>Development-Options; Android 4.1.2). I've never changed or set this, but it tells me to type in, before setting a new one.
Thanks for help and sorry for my bad english

for anyone using latest virtuous rom..

with everyone one of these roms, ive never been able to get my email to work. im not talking about miscosoft sync email, im talking about the "other" section under "mail". it ALWAYS says my password and username are wrong when i know they are correct. any ideas to get it to work? it would be greatly appreciated.
I'm using the latest virtuous rom V8.1 and i have no problems in setting up my email(Singnet).. I strongly believe that it might be due to wrong input in ur username and password.. Try using the Manual setup and u can manually input all ur correct details in it... And from your pc u should open ur mail account and check its settings like ur correct email, username, protocol and password..
Try it again good luck..

[Q] Change google account without hard reset on 2.3?

Hey guys, just wondering if it's possible to change my main google account without factory reset? I know it was possible on older versions of Android, from what I've read, but is it possible on GB?
Thanks
Try the following:
Go to Settings -->Accounts & sync
Press on the account you want to be deleted
Press "Remove account" on the next screen
Tried that, when I select the dummy account I registered with it won't let me delete unless I do a factory reset
It worked for me on CM7. I added a second Google account and then successfully deleted that newly added account.
I tried to do the same the stock non-rooted sense rom, and got the same reply. Had to do the factory reset. Maybe it will only work on rooted phones, or perhaps only some custom roms. I don't know.. Is yout phone rooted? Do u run a custom rom?

Yes my phone is rooted and is running CyanogenMod 7 (CM7), but I really doubt that this has to do anything with me being able to do what I've described, as this is a standard Android functionality provided by Google itself, and not a third party hack/addition.
BTW, are you trying to delete the only one currently existing account? Maybe if there is only a single account, then it cannot be removed... just a thought. I created an additional account just for the test and then deleted it, and did not mess with my true account.
The main account signed into on the phone is locked until you hard reset - no way to change it otherwise
Yeah, I'm on MIUI and I've added a second account but can't delete the first one. Which I don't care much about - but I can't change my Talk account to sign in with a different one, which is what annoys me..
Anyway, thanks for the help guys

[Q] Cannot set up google account

Hi guys, got a bit of a pickle.
I'm currently rooted to RempuzzleROM 2.2.1 FULL and during the set up where you can choose to set up your google account, it says "GOOGLE ACCOUNT - google_login" and when i press on it, it does absolutely nothing. I thought it may have been a set up bug, so i tried to open the market, it said "You must add an account to the device to continue. Do you want to add one now?" So i press yes, and nothing happens. It just goes back to the home screen. I have uploaded a few roms onto it to see if it was just this, but cyanogenmod 7 also had the same problem.
Any ideas on what i can do to fix this?
Cheers.
Hi,check your time and date settings are correct, had same prob when date had reset to 1980 lol.

Change USER everything stops

Hey all,
I'm running the Last Paranoid Android Rom witch includes awesomes features like Pie controls/ per app DPI and different user sessions (the reason i chose PA).
The thing is, when i create a new user, i go to configure it, lock the screen, rotate it, select the new user, unlock the device and then boum ! Black screen, hundreds of pop ups show up like "Gmail has stopped" "Phase Beam has stopped" "Android Keyboard has stopped" and as i press ok, a new pop up shows up ! It's impossible to use another user so i Just lock the device and go back to my session.
So my questions are :
- is it an experimental feature ?
- Am i doing something wrong ?
- does some of you make it work ?
- if you do, what Rom are you on ?
Thanks in advance for your answers !

You probably didn't do a Factory reset before going to the Paranoid Android
Either that or the Nightly/rom you are using isn't very stable.
Hy,
I was on the PA 3.10 4MARCH First. When i flashed this rom, i did factory reset wiped data and caches. But then the update PA 3.10 6MARCH came out. I dowloaded it and flashed it. Since it's an update, no need to factory reset ou wipe data or cache.
Maybe that's the problem ?
I don't think it is cause i followed instructions from the official thread...
Thanks for your answer tho'

Google has limited multi-user support to tablets. I can't speak as to whether or not devs have gotten it working on phones since I spend most of my time on the N7 scene.

Keep language change after reboot

First of all, I dont know if this thread belongs to this forum, so please tell me if I am wrong.
A few days ago I bought a HTC One M9 and surprisingly it didn't have my local language (spanish). Reading how to solve this, I downloaded MoreLocale2 and granted permissions through adb to change language and that went fine, but everytime I restart the device or turn it off, language changes back to english and I have to reenable the language through the app.
Is there a way to make this change permanent without having to root the phone?
I'm currently on Android 7
Thanks!
