View Settings/secure/global data from Android

i was looking for a way to look into the settings.db or other secure db that exist in android , on non rooted device.
i find out this command to View the data :

adb shell content

e.g. - to see all global settings
adb shell content query --uri content://settings/global

adb shell content query --uri content://settings/system
adb shell content query --uri content://settings/secure


there is also a tool - have a look at  adb-export

Google Speech API

Great service from google to transcript sound into text.
an easy way to use curl command below.

open command shell (cmd on windows)
set your google  API_KEY

set API_KEY=xxxxxxxxxxxx-xxxxxxxxxx

request.json file should contains such data

{
  "config": {
      "encoding":"FLAC",
      "sampleRateHertz": 16000,
      "languageCode": "en-US",
      "enableWordTimeOffsets": false
  },
  "audio": {
      "uri":"gs://cloud-samples-tests/speech/brooklyn.flac"
  }
}

run the command to get response

curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data-binary @request.json "https://speech.googleapis.com/v1/speech:recognize?key=%API_KEY%"

for long file (above 1 minute )use such command
curl -s -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" --data-binary @request.json "https://speech.googleapis.com/v1/speech:longrunningrecognize?key=%API_KEY%"

you will get response such as
{
  "name": "9111777455024812345"
}

use the name value to get result of the long process

curl -s -X GET  "https://speech.googleapis.com/v1/operations/9111777455024812345?key=%API_KEY%"

the next easy trick - will do it for you - if you will start your program with F1.

without F1 - it will not wait for  a debugger

very helpful !!
