    Disable Chromecast volume control?

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 08:48 AM PST

    Any time I cast something, my phone's volume rocker will default to controlling the chromecast volume. I have no use for this - I only want it to control my device volume. Is there a way to do this on Android 10? I am rooted with Magisk if that helps.

    Pixel 3a fails to save most photos

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 10:31 AM PST

    Hi there. Having researched this a bit already, it seems to have been a problem since at least 2018. I've downloaded and tried different camera apps, and the issue remains, so it's likely not the camera software. Also, my Photos app is up to date. I have also purged my cache.

    Any advice on solving this issue would be much appreciated. I'm about to go on holiday, and really would rather be able to take photographs.

    Thanks for any advice.

    Anyone know how to change fonts?

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 09:48 AM PST

    I'm using a Nokia 6.1 with Android 10. I would like to know how to change fonts in this phone, since the option to change it doesn't come built in with the device. I do not want any launchers and I certainly don't need to root or brick my phone. I just need a way where I can change my device's font without harming its contents too much. Thanks.

    Need help getting rid of notification pop up

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 09:46 AM PST

    Just switched from iOS to a Note 8 and the email notification (red arrow) is driving me insane with how much it pops up and is in the way. I've messed with every aspect of the notifications to try and get rid of it but still keep the badge numbers (yellow arrow) so I know if there is new emails; but nothing allows me to keep one and get rid of the other. It's both or nothing in every test I've conducted. Am I missing something?

    I can no longer install FB Messenger on my phone

    Posted: 24 Jan 2020 07:35 PM PST

    I have an ASUS Zenfone 2 Laser (ZE550KL) that I recently downgraded the firmware of because of battery draining problems with the latest versions. I downgraded to version WW_1.17.40.1234, and everything seemed to go fine. However, Messenger can't be installed.

    When I click on the "Install" button in the Play Store, it downloads then gets stuck on "Installing" for a while. Then, it comes up with "Can't install Messenger - Text and Video Chat for Free. Try again, and if it still doesn't work, see common ways to fix the problem"

    I've tried clearing the cache and data of the Play Store and Play Services, but it doesn't fix anything.

    For the meantime, I'm using Messenger Lite, which installed with no problems (I still want to use the regular Messenger app, since it has a lot more features on it). I've also installed a bunch of other apps, and none of them fail to install.

    Samsung Galaxy S10e vs Galaxy A80

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 12:29 PM PST

    Hello, I might be getting a new phone and it is only my 3rd smartphone, currently using J3 2017 and I want to finally upgrade to a bit more expensive phone.

    My eyes have caught A80 and S10e which is about 100€ more expensive. After doing very short research I have found that S10e is even worse than A80 in few aspects so I want to know which one here is more worth the money?

    Also, even though I prefer Samsung, I want to hear some other suggestions on a phone up to ~600€.

    Getting data off of phone with broken screen

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 08:35 AM PST

    Hoping this is a good sub to post this.

    Does anyone know a way to get data off of a phone (Samsung Galaxy Note 8) without the screen working and the usb being not reliable?

    It's a loose cable connection for the usb, and the phone was run over, but still vibrates and things. I have 2 years worth of photos and Sketchbook drawings. I need to get anything I can off before sending it for my insurance in exchange for the one they sent me.

    If anyone knows any ways outside the box or anything, I would appreciate it. Thank you.

    Cannot update some Play Store apps!

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 12:19 PM PST

    I cannot update some of my Play Store apps...Ot is stuck on "Waiting for download" which is really annoying because one of the apps has to be updated in order for me to use it. I tried restarting my phone, cleared cache and data of Play Store app and signed out/in of my Google profile. The problem has been going for several days and I'm clueless as what to do... What is this sh*tshow from Google!? Any suggestions are welcome. :)

    Phone is stuck on the screen right before it boots despite it being on

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 08:17 AM PST

    So as I was making breakfast this morning, I had my phone die. I wasn't doing anything on it other than watching a YouTube video. After it died, I put it on the charger to charge and left it for a couple hours. When I went to try and turn it back on, it turned on normally with it showing the Motorola logo followed by the rest of the boot animation however, once it got to Lenovo, it just sits there. Now, the strangest part about all of this is that the phone is still on. I am still able to unlock my phone, I just can't see the screen. Is there any ideas anyone has to try and fix this problem that don't involve me formatting my device? I'd really like to try and get all of my contacts off of my phone before I have to do that. I think that the phone I have is a Motorola G4 Plus. Any advice would be appreciated ^^

    Flashing Bootloader and Modem [Samsung S8]

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 11:58 AM PST

    Hello! I've been using the Alexis custom ROM on my S8 for a while now but I've never flashed the bootloder or modem. Is this something I need or should do? I've only ever flashed the ROM updates and everything seems to work fine.

    Here are the current versions I use, do they need updating? I downloaded the .zip which has 'cm.bin' 'modem.bin' and 'sboot.bin' files in along with Odin but I don't know which sections to put each file in lol, can someone explain? Thanks!

    Configure router or server for remote co-op play

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 08:09 AM PST

    Good afternoon fellow redditors , I love a game called Dawn of Warriors but I've never been able to play with my friends as I'm always busy. The game itself let you play with your local lan friends and I have seen that it opens the local udp port 0.0.0.0:1909. Would it be possible to run something like hamachi or port forwarding to play it with a friend in another house?

    Insane battery drain because of play services

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 11:46 AM PST

    https://imgur.com/a/viycd1x Yes I haven't charged my phone a bit longer that's why it's at 200% but it is still the most draining app (2x more than YT and I use it a lot) What could be the cause of that? I am rooted with magisk canary, have some modules. I have a OnePlus 7 Pro running Android 10.

    Camera2api enabled video calling not possible..

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 07:26 AM PST

    Mi A1 user here.

    So recently I rooted my phone (Magisk) and unlocked the bootloader. I enabled the camera 2api. Then again I unrooted the phone and locked the bootloader.

    Gcam was working fine (stable version for my device).

    But today when I video called my friend by the default caller app of Mi A1 this happened : I can see my friend face but my friend can't see me. He gets completely black screen. Tried with some other phone and same problem. Proper camera permission is given to the caller app and I also cleared data once nothing happened.

    What could be the problem?

    Trying to uninstall youtube with adb but it stays on the device

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 05:05 AM PST

    I am trying to uninstall my youtube version 13.46.53 to install 12.32.60 on my Sony Xperia L3 with Android 8.1.0. When I do adb uninstall com.google.android.youtube it returns "Success" but when I look on the phone, the app is still there and is usable. When I try to install the older version I have on the PC it returns: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_VERSION_DOWNGRADE]. This is really frustrating because the new youtube versions are terrible to use and I couldn't figure out a way to solve this with a few google searches.

    Will hard resetting my Note 9 remove an unwanted Samsung account that I don't have a password for?

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 02:09 AM PST

    The phone was a gift from my ex and she had her Samsung&Google accounts logged in when I got the phone.

    I managed to remove the Google account and add mine, but the Samsung account requires a password so that rules out factory resetting.

    If I hard reset it will I be prompted to enter the Samsung account password when it reboots, thus making the phone unusable? I don't want to risk doing it then be left with a brick.

    Galaxy S8 no longer gets signal or speed it used to after a move and repair. I'm at a loss!

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 10:27 AM PST

    So, I moved from MI to VA with my old Galaxy S8. The screen was cracked and the device had been without service for several months. I got the screen replaced and had StraightTalk reactivate it under a different number (last 4 were different) and put unlimited service on it.

    Problem is, I don't get more than 3 bars anywhere and my speed is garbage. I get 5 Mbps down and .5 Mbps when I use it as a mobile hotspot. This is a travesty, as I used to be able to run an entire house on the mobile tether in a pinch. And I really need this for school.

    I worked with StraightTalk and they did some basic BS troubleshooting, which had no effect. They verified high-speed signal and excellent coverage here where I am. I took it to where I got the screen replaced and had them check the hardware for damage or poor connects, but there was no problem there.

    I'm at a loss. I have no idea what to do next. This phone used to be a boss, but it's basically good for little more than social media and some games - not what I need it for at all.

    Any thoughts?

    How can I unlock my phone after a hard reset without a Samsung account?

    Posted: 25 Jan 2020 10:23 AM PST

    Hello there, first of all. I recently had to reset my phone (Samsung Galaxy S6), because of technical issues, but I'll have to sign in with my Samsung account to use it. The problem is, that I'm not signed in to any account right now at all. The one I used for my device doesn't seem to have a connection to my phone anymore, for unknown reasons. Is there anything I can do, except for sending it in? Their repairing service clearly stated, I shouldn't have resetted it in the first place, so I'm kind of in a dilemma right now.
