Providing custom information
These are all related and perhaps possible or not,, I'm not fluent with this stuff. I'll start with my dream request and try and provides an easier alternative, in understanding the amount of time it takes to accommodate all of these requests, plus the bug fixes, and can't imagine the amount of time it must take to just keep up with the Android updates alone. Thanks for taking the time to even read this....
I would like a the option for each of the functions in the phone that would allow me to enable or disable a popup window that would include a text box to enter custom data each time an app makes a request for it from from the device I I can provide the data and is being sent that same moment in almost real time, The most recently sent data for each function should retained, , or the most recent ex pieces could be retained for quick edit or a single one touch resending of the current data would be perfect. For data like SSID, for SDK version, a drop down list or series of radio buttons would be pretty slick. An additional few tick boxes controlling the blocking of future pop ups, or limiting them by a time-based interval would be super cool! That's probably a ton of work and perhaps not even feasible. A simpler option might be to add the text box under the expert options of the initial permission popup screen. It certainly seems easier, and it might actually be better in a simplicity. I don't know. Thanks againfor taking the time to read and consider what I've written. I hope it all made sense
The part where you control future pop-ups and set a time interval is already possible. You may need to enable an expert option somewhere.
Cool. Thanks. I'll look into that and digging through the options and try to find it. I'm glad you understood what I was trying to describe. Thank you. On Nov 3, 2015 4:14 PM, "Cerberus-tm" [email protected] wrote:

I'm thinking you might not have seen the pop-up messages for "on demand" permissions at all yet? See here, question 34: https://github.com/M66B/XPrivacy/blob/master/README.md#frequently-asked-questions-faq
Custom data you can only enter in the Settings menu in the Xprivacy app. Open Xprivacy, tap on an application to edit its permissions, then pick Settings in the menu. There you can set a custom SSID or location, etc., for that specific app only.
When you're in the general menu in Xprivacy, you can enter custom default settings ("global") for all apps, by going to Settings in the menu; those "global" settings are used when an app doesn't have any custom settings for itself.
I've been using that part of the app quite a bit. The challenge I've been having is once I load the GPS coordinates in it, it may be an hour before the app called for an updated location. I'd like to know when that call is made and load the appropriate coordinates for that specific moment in time, not the location for an hour prior. Otherwise I'm loading information that may not be loaded into an hour later and at that point my coordinates are no longer valid. And also seems, but correct me if I'm wrong once I put a set of coordinates in, I don't have the ability to update those again. All future request by the app are denied. It doesn't single pair of the app would be receiving the previous set of coordinates again, but that is sent they denied request. I'm not seen the way to update those coordinates once it's been working without doing an FC. At least that's my impression, but I could be wrong. Is there a way to track what data was sent to the app on each of its calls for updated location coordinates? On Nov 3, 2015 5:06 PM, "Cerberus-tm" [email protected] wrote:

And by the way, I appreciate all the time and effort. Wasn't expecting this level of communication. Appreciate it very very much. On Nov 4, 2015 12:49 AM, "Dale Decker" [email protected] wrote:
