I installed android studio 2.3 and trying to run adb on an emulator

I did adb -e shell

Its gives me prompt:

generic_x86:/

I do an ls and I show a bunch of directory  permission denied
 
I entered cd /data/data and it worked

after I entered

mkdir com.example.dbexample

and I get permission denied.

What is wrong?  I am expecting and android emulator you have root permission

Emulator is version 7.1.1

I found one at a store, Samsung Galaxy Note 8, that seemed impressive. Could write notes on it just like with an ordinary pen on paper. Is this the best there is on the market, or is there any other note-taking smartphone that is much better?

Except the function to take notes just like with an ordinary pen on paper but instead on the smartphone with an electronic pen, I also want to be able to easily and quickly find any small note. So there should be possible to save each note and label each note so I can find it later using any of several search criteria.

Also useful would be to easily be able to cut parts of a note and paste somewhere else to other notes (move parts of notes to other notes).

Or would a tablet like Samsung Tab J be even better than a note-taking smartphone?

I HATE ios v11 and want to downgrade to 10.3.
How can I do this?

Hi experts,

OK, so I am looking at the Google Pixel 2 and the Google Pixel 2 XL. I am rather certain that the former is being made by HTC while the XL will be an LG phone. Please correct me if I have it backwards. So, I am confused about a few things.

I have Googled their first Pixel from 2016, but I could not find the following info. I thought that the big deal about the original Pixel was that it would run the latest and greatest Android OS, and the phone would be made by Google. Supposedly, this meant everything would work perfectly together. Was the original phone actually made by Google?

The two phones which are just now being released are made by two companies. The Pixel 2 is an HTC phone, while the Pixel 2 XL is an LG. So, my observation is it seems silly to have two different companies making the same line of phone. Or is that common? I also think I read that Google was going to purchase HTC's phone division so they would, in effect, make their own phones.

The two biggest downsides to the phones that I have read is no jack for headsets and no SSD slots. And, I am not sure what the battery life will be.

Thanks for your help.

I have a few quick questions which I would like to add to this thread, easy ones, its just Im not used to using Android.  On my new Samsung Galaxy Note 8, even when I have no sim card in there or when in airplane mode, it shows full bars receptions.  What gives?

I have the iPhone 5.  Apple are not providing iOS 11 to users like me.  The cynical me says it's because they want me to spend to upgrade to the latest shiny toy.  Is that the real reason?   I really can't believe that hey can't afford to support performance and functional updates for upto 10 years.  

Is Android any better?

Hello Experts,

I am working on a small website that allows users to send a vCard (.vcf file) to an email address they specify. The coding for this function is in php, and I should mention that my php skills are pretty basic. There are 2 versions of the email that sends the vCard: one in English and one in Japanese.
So far, everything is working fine, except that on Android smartphones, the Japanese characters in the subject line of the email get mangled (the body text is fine). It is obviously a character encoding issue.
Researching the issue on google indicates that I need to specify the character encoding for the subject text (in the case of Japanese, I think this would be UTF-8). I have tried a number of things to achieve this, but just cannot get it to work.
I provide the code as an attached file. I’d greatly appreciate it if anyone could have a look at this and let me know of any suggestions for a solution to this. Thank you in advance for any help.

I'm looking for a better task management solution. I could use some suggestions based on my requirements.

requirements in order of importance, top 6 are a must

1. -has web/PC app and mobile (Android) app, data being synchronized
2. -tasks can have due dates
3. -can associate with "note to self" directive on Android, so I can say "OK Google, note to self, buy birthday cards" and it will make a new task for me hands-free
4. -can search text contents on mobile and on PC
5. -has some way of categorizing tasks (lists, categories, folders)
6. -paste images from clipboard into a task
7. -attach files to a task
8. -keyboard shortcuts on PC to create and edit tasks
9. -can create sub-tasks or related (e.g. "is-blocked-by") tasks
10. -tasks have priorities (normal,high,etc.)
11. -tasks can have reminders/alerts at least in the Android app
12. -can be target of share on Android, e.g. a text message, a URL, or an image can feed into the app and becomes a task
13. -can easily transfer my existing tasks from Google Tasks
14. -can share one of the task lists/categories with another person

current situation
I'm currently using GTasks on Android and a Chrome extension (Better Google Tasks), which essentially repackages mail.google.com. This solution has much of the above, but the web interface is clunky and I'm really missing the ability to paste images.

which one?
I've read these are popular and good, but that's a lot to test every one of them. Any suggestions?

• any.do
• evernote
• google keep
• remember the milk
• TickTick
