Peanut

I sent a message asking about this to an HTC representative on Reddit who's been pretty active and seems like a nice guy, perhaps he can help out with it.

where a person has the same question as the OP and has tried the solution but found it didn't work.

What do we do in cases like android.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/46856

Also how do people request for a question to be reopened?

It does change the question/quite a big revision but seems legit, what do others think?

Just got this to review: android.stackexchange.com/review/suggested-edits/36286

This is on a Nexus 7 stock 4.4.2

It's not in the Display menu anymore.

Does anyone know where the auto-rotate option has gone from KitKat? :/

Hah yes I'm definitely sure. It's a Nexus S running the latest OTA update it could get (4.1.2 I think?) so it doesn't even have a quick settings for auto-rotate.

Also in the awkward position of my power button being broken so I can't turn it off like that and abd isn't recognising it so I can't reboot through that

Not confined to one particular application, happens on launcher and in all apps.

Anyone seen any behaviour where the screen rotates despite the auto-rotate being turned off?

Oops sorry just read your second bit, see you've seen the bundled version.

Just the setting up of Eclipse with Android is easy, I think they actually have their own bundled version on the developer website now.

@PeterBoné You'd be better off asking on StackOverflow perhaps but I think you should test on a real device, not use AVD, it is slow.

I ordered a medium t-shirt since I figured Americans are a bit for forgiving in their sizing but even that is pretty big.

Just got my android.stackexchange stuff today :)

and @Izzy yep saw that, +1 for you. I keep meaning to get around to buying Tasker and setting up some at home/work stuff.

@geffchang That's how my app does it, you still get a report about volume change if it stays at 0 and volume down is pressed, just need to keep track of the previous volume and do if(currentVolume <= previousVolume) then count it.

@Izzy I think know you know Tasker? Fancy weighing in on the last bit of my answer here android.stackexchange.com/a/49711/12357 I'm not sure whether it's possible or not with Tasker.

@DanHulme There you go, should have your 5th! I'd never actually heard of MHL before, interesting.

I'd say "Is there any android device which is using PIN connection for miracast? " is shopping but "Or is there any setting to set our android application to use PIN connection?" is on-topic perhaps? Maybe ask for an edit.

@Izzy Yep you're free of guilt!

The 'thinking break' is called an ellipsis and people seem to really overuse them on this site for some reason, are they focussed on when you're taught English in schools? As far as I recall I was never explicitly taught them, I just had to Wikipedia there proper usage for example as I'd never heard of them as 'thinking breaks', only seen them used instead of omitted words, but apparently they can be used to indicate thought. Learn something new everyday.

@Izzy @Izzy I meant the revision before that sorry, I added the links and changed the grammar/spelling back to the correct form :) And @DanHulme has the brackets explanation spot on.

I just think if half the changes are dubious (skeptical)/incorrect they shouldn't be approved.

At all is incorrect, it did fix 1 spelling and grammar mistake.

Is it possible to see who approved an edit? I'd assume it's not but just wondering. Someone's just approved this edit: android.stackexchange.com/posts/16159/revisions which didn't actually fix the spelling/grammar at all. I was in the middle of writing the rejection but someone already accepted it.

@BenBrocka I just followed him around the network using his network activity tab and then reporting/commenting about all his posts being spam, seemed to irritate him quite a bit and he had no idea how I was watching his activity over all of the different StackExchange sites. Had a "@Peanut HOW ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME!!!!!!" comment on one of them.

Although his rant over on Unix/Linux was quite amusing: unix.stackexchange.com/questions/73373/linux-not-working-help

Is there any way to report a user? Got this one guy spamming as he's angry with StackExchange android.stackexchange.com/users/32723/ewd

Marked as very low quality since it did kind of try and answer the question but it didn't add anything that the OP didn't already know and didn't actually answer it.

@Izzy Ah okay thanks. Flag in question was on: android.stackexchange.com/questions/32637/…

What does 'disputed' mean on a flag?

Anyway thanks guys and ping me if you ever get Rory in the monkey suit.

Yeah CTF would be too complex I'd imagine. @AJHenderson I'm trying to bear it in mind.

Yeahh good idea. Maybe some SQLi stuff.

But if anyone could think of simple defense stuff that'd be great

Well the overview just says 'cyber defense', and we get to pick within that basically. I've gone more for the exploit side since a) seems easier to think of challenges for and b) I've got more experience with that

I did it at 17 or so that's why I thought it might be good.

More general than tech, some will have experience and we do get to teach them a bit.

Haha! I figured it might be a long shot. So I've got like a really simple steg challenge and maybe something like the first few levels of hackthissite, some SQLi maybe.

So, how do I go about that?

Finally

Has nothing to do with age determination

@AJHenderson Think I've obviously worded my post incorrectly :p

Hah actually I meant my message was about security and after lurking for 5 minutes I realise that's almost off topic here..

Hey all, I realise this is about security and almost off topic for this chat :p but... I've been asked to come up with some very basic challenges for 14-15 year olds relating to 'cyber security'. I've already got a few in mind, but wondered if anyone had any interesting ideas or things they might have done in the past when learning? And sorry about not helping your words-per-message!

Quick question, I think I'm right in saying that for RSA the message you're encrypting has to be the same size as the public key/modulus and produces a signature of the same length? Does ECC have this property as well? So if I have a 64 byte ECC key do I have to have a 64 byte message?
