    Is there any legit reason why iOS gets preferred treatment when it comes to Google Services and Apps?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 06:41 AM PST

    I remember when updates for YouTube, Gboard and some other apps got new features first on the iPhone then few weeks later on Android.

    Now, the Dark Mode in Gmail supports older generation of iOS but not Android 9?

    I had the Mi 9T shipped with Android 9. I updated every app and turned on Dark Mode on every app I could. I updated to MIUI 11 based on Android 10 and I got instantly Dark Mode on Gmail.

    Anyone else have Issues with reminders when phone is locked?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 12:45 PM PST

    I'm having trouble viewing reminders I get when I'm not using the phone/phone locked. Cant see what I'm being reminded of, and when pressing home or back, it just gets snoozed for 15min in an endless loop.

    https://m.imgur.com/gallery/aZvk45r this is what it looks like.

    I have found a workaround by hitting "switch app button" and then home, and then I can find it readable in the pull-down menu.

    How do I fix it? And does anyone else have this too?

    *forgot to mention I have a galaxy s9+ on newest android update.

    Need VPN to bypass Censorship

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 03:59 AM PST

    I'm from a place where VPN is constantly blocked by the government. Everyday new vpns get blocked and we need to hunt for newer vpns and sometimes so many don't work already. Can you suggest good vpns that are good at bypassing firewalls

    I can no longer pause/play chromecast on lockscreen. S9+ android 10. Can you?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 01:03 PM PST

    Used to be able to play and pause when streaming to a chromecast. Netflix, HBO, YouTube, etc. All worked fine.

    It may or may not have stopped working after the android update, dont remember... doesn't work now anyway.

    Anyone else have this issue? Or does anyone know how to fix it?

    Questions regarding the use of SD card.

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 03:44 AM PST

    Currently I'm using Samsung J2 Core. It's good enough for daily usage but I would like to upgrade storage size. Rather than upgrading I bought an SD Card. It's Sandisk SDHC 32 GB. The problem is that whenever I unmount it, or restarted my phone it seemed to format itself again. Am I missing something? Thanks for your help.

    Swipe down on overview sreen

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 02:35 AM PST

    When I press the square button on the right, the apps appear just like before, and as usual a double tap on the square switches to the last used app. But since some time ago, when I'm on that screen and swipe down on an app, a lock appears on the right corner of that. What does that lock mean?

    I accidentally reset my Android's google chrome to factory settings... HELP!

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 10:42 AM PST

    Is there any way to undo this? All my history and cookies, etc. are gone. I even tried turning off the phone when it said it was resetting it to factory settings and it still did it. What happened was instead of hitting "cancel" when it asked me to reset it to factory settings, I accidentally hit "okay" and so it completely reset it to factory default. [Yes, you can disable Chrome without resetting it to factory settings]. Is there anyway that I can undo this and get all of my history, etc. back?

    android shuts down after adb reboot?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 06:52 AM PST

    So my phone (Mi A1) had a broken power button and I wanted to restart it through adb reboot.

    The phone worked perfectly fine before albeit the broken power button but once I applied the command the phone immediately shuts down!

    Now the phone no longer responds to charging cable and even my PC could not detect it.

    I tried looking for similar problems on google but I found none.

    Am i screwed now? Does the phone became hard-bricked?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 10:21 AM PST

    Huawei P30 Pro with Harman Kardon FLY ANC (250$ headphones) for 670$ or OnePlus 7T Pro without any additional acessories for 650$? I know the all diffrance between them, orginally I were going for the OnePlus beacuse its a faster phone, but the Huawei deal with headphones is a big "go for it" for me. What would you guys sugest? Is the deal worth it to pick Huawei?

    Is there a way to turn off touch drag threshold? (Huawei)

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 07:21 AM PST

    Sorry for my bad English.

    I play video games and draw a bit on my phone. But there's apparently a threshold when I drag my finger across the screen. I have to drag like a centimeter before the drag action starts. Before it, it only holds and doesn't drag. It's a major problem when you're playing games which require aiming and drawing with a stylus.

    Is this a malicious app? How do I deal with this?

    Posted: 19 Feb 2020 06:57 AM PST

    Long story short, my phone used to have a lot of "virus" signs when I downloaded Google keep. I uninstalled it and everything worked perfectly. After that, I redownloaded the app ( because I really like it and I consider it to be essential) and everything works just fine. However, I checked my data consumption and it did consume around 20mb's while itbwas active at the background. I don't use synchronization with my Google account so I think it doesn't need to consume any data or WiFi. I downloaded the app straight from the official playstore. I also have a Galaxy A70 with Android 9 and One UI. At the end of the day, is this app "malicious"? If yes, what can I do to deal with this problem?

    EDIT: This was the first time ever this app consumed data.

    Is there an app to show my gaming PC's live stats?

    Posted: 18 Feb 2020 07:47 PM PST

    I've got an old Nexus 7 2012 and I'd like to basically attach it to the front of my gaming PC case and use it to show off things like CPU/GPU usage, etc. Does such an app exist, or similar?

    Thank you for your time! :)
