Okay, thank you for letting us know that the app works for this device.

YES! Well, theoretically, yes. Airplane mode cycling now works on [ROOTED] Android 4.2+ devices. Here's a list of currently known working devices: * HTC One with Android 4.2.2 * LG Nexus 4 with stock Android 4.3 (Thanks to mrrogers1) If you are able to try out the newest update, then please let me or Spence know about it! We'll be keeping a list for everybody. Also, there have been a few more improvements and bug fixes to the app. I hope you will like it. There are more updates in the works. Just trying to make sure the base feature works before adding too many features.

@mrrogers1, thank you. I will definitely let you know. We do need beta testers for this type of app. A recent update to the Developers Console for Google Play allows us to have beta and alpha apps before being rolled out to everybody. Also, eventually, we going to add some basic analytics to the app so that we know better how most people are using the app and how we should focus our efforts more. I currently just keep tabs of how everybody uses this in my head lol (from many feedbacks). One of the best things about developing an app for a high tech demographic is the better quality feedback and bug notices. But, one of the hurdles are the many different types of ROMs to make sure the app works for. I actually just received my new Nexus 4 today so that I can do even more testing easier now. ps - I just re-read this and am not really sure if it is coherent or not. I'm really tired and it's been a long day at work.

Thank you for the feedback! I believe the more feedback Spence and I receive, the better we can make the app. And we can also see which features are the most important to the most people. We have a long todo list of features (including serving cell IDs) and have added your two excellent suggestions to it. May I ask, which mode(s) do you use? Is it only "Cycle only when not connected to LTE"?

Hey, see post above. I just wanted to quote you so that you have a better chance of receiving a notification about my reply. ps - I would have deleted the post above and reposted if that open was available...

Hi mrrogers1, I'm directly working on the code with Spence in developing LTE Discovery. Unfortunately, automatic toggle of airplane mode isn't working on API 17+ (4.2.1+) because Google altered some security measures on their end. It is a high priority for us to find a workaround. One solution so far involves having users root their phone, but we are looking for a more general solution. 1. We are not exactly sure why this is happening, and it theoretically shouldn't be happening. But, we are currently working on a HUGE overhaul to the code base to clean it up, make bugs easier to find, and make future updates easier. This is one of the main reasons there hasn't been a major update in awhile. 2. Yes, please send us a Logcat if you can (feedback@simplyadvanced.net). And, a very wordy/specific description on how we can recreate the bug (you can't be too wordy with a bug description ). 3. Yes, the logic was planned this way and it was actually harder to do than just always opening the main page. We figured that once you choose a setting that you like, you don't really ever really need to change it. It is more likely that after driving around hunting for LTE, that you would want to see the GPS coordinate, NID, BSID, and SID. But, if you have another use-case that you would like to present to us, then we would really like talking to you about it. We are very open to suggestions and all feedback. The ability to click on GPS coordinates to open it in Google Maps is definitely on the todo list! And, some other cool features too.

Hmmm, interesting. I would think that it'd be the other way around. Unfortunately, I don't have a Nexus 4 to debug and this is the first that I have heard of this problem. I'll be on the lookout for what could be the reason for this. But, I do have a solution. It would be a great feature to support on all devices. So, how about this? We can put an option in the settings so that you can easily toggle whether or not LTE Discovery should automatically startup.
