    Android Questions: Gmail crashes when clicking links

    Android Questions: Gmail crashes when clicking links


    Gmail crashes when clicking links

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 08:05 AM PDT

    OnePlus 5T. Android 9. AT&T.

    The Gmail app (latest version) crashes any time I click a link. I've tried disabling Chrome and updating Webview to no avail. Cleared system cache. Restarted. Disabled (and tested, and reenabled) the Gmail app setting "open web links in Gmail"). Etc. Nothing works.

    Interestingly, I uninstalled all updates to the app and rolled back to the factory version...and it STILL crashes on clicking links.

    Any help? This is a repost because I can't believe I am the ONLY person with this issue

    Bluetooth draining battery like there is no tomorrow.

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 07:49 AM PDT

    And I really mean it. Android 8.1, no root or questionable apps installed. Sometimes, maybe a couple times per month, battery is going down to zero from, for instance, fifty percent in less than a half an hour. When I managed to charge it in the middle of the process it was charging really slow, then for no apparent reason picked up some pace and from fifty percent to the top it was ok, but then in battery statistics was shown more than 100% (about 110 if it makes any difference) used by Bluetooth. I use Bluetooth headphones and smart watch every day, routine is more or less the same, but it happens only sometimes. Rebooting device doing nothing, it's still draining when turned on. Factory reset made no difference either. The device is half decent ZTE Blade V9 Vita, it's not distributed in any market but Asian, as far as I know, but yeah.

    Battery charging control

    Posted: 24 Mar 2020 10:14 PM PDT

    Is there an app that allows me to control how much and when my phone charges. Let's say I go to bed at 10pm and my phone charges to 95% and stops charging only to continue charging 5 minutes before I wake to get to 100% just when I wake.

    Hide incoming calls

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 11:57 AM PDT

    Hey I am using a huawei phone. Is it possible to hide the incoming call screen, so you first have to unlock your screen, before you are able to answer a call? I don't want other people being able to pick up calls on my phone

    Note 10+ video lag

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 11:51 AM PDT

    Note 10+ lagging when recording video

    Hey dudes.

    I am pretty bummed.

    Whenever I record video, there's a stutter. The stutter freezes video recording for a couple seconds and then continues.

    I've tried adjusting screen resolutions, changing video size, disabling and enabling video stabilization, and changing where videos are stored (internal and external).

    No luck.

    Does anyone have suggestions or know how to fix this issue?

    On what basis should I choose between the Xiaomi Redmi Note 6,7,8, 8T, 8 Pro? Or maybe P30 Lite? Other Chinese phones that are good? Maybe special/curiosity phones like waterproof or hard to break glass? Plus a few questions I have related to phones

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 11:48 AM PDT

    I am buying in that price range, but you can suggest something a bit expensive with like +100 - 170 Euros in the case of special/curiosity phones.

    The questions I have are:

    What is the other OS that has been implemented in Xiaomi phones and how do I choose that and between basic Android? What are the differences between the two OSs? Is the new one more secure? Faster? Better optimized?

    If I buy Android, is it a problem if it's only Android version 9? How much will that last?

    How much is the minimum and how much is the recommended RAM and Storage space nowadays? What if I'm buying a phone for 3+ years?

    Considering Android is attacked as much as Windows (PC OS), at least the share of viruses is highest on Android compared to others do you need antivirus? Seriously if you want to go explore potentially dangerous sites (like "adult content") don't you need protection? Which antivirus is worth it? And firewall?

    If I want to game on it, what is that gamepad called that you can connect it to?

    How do you connect Ethernet to such a smartphone?

    Finally, I've never had to hard reset my phones. If I do it, will I lose my contact list? Both on phone and SIM card?

    Trying to get a beta version of an online game to work (Stormbound Kingdom Wars)

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 11:43 AM PDT

    I have a beta APK of a game, and opening it gives an error regarding that a new version has been released. Turning WiFi off gives anther error about not having a connection.

    I'm 50% sure(ish) that user data is handled app-side and not server-side as I've seen cracked versions of this release. Fairly certain that player IDs are the only things handled by a server (which probably doesn't exist anymore).

    Does anyone know of a way to mod the APK such that we can bypass the version number check? (We're pretty clueless on APK modding)

    Kindle fire hd 10 (2019) screen stopped working

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 11:20 AM PDT

    So I just got my Kindle Fire HD 10 gen 2019 tablet a little over two weeks ago. Yesterday I was watching facebook videos on it and randomly the touch screen stops responding to touch. I've plugged it into the charger and restarted it and the device acts as though it works but the screen just doesnt respond to touch. Do you all have any recommendations to fix it or have had similar issues? Really disappointed because I just got it and I'm already having issues, I really like it but it's a shame this is already happening.

    Phone not charging, stuck at home, need suggestions

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 10:57 AM PDT

    Okay I really need help. I am stuck working from home. I am not sure if any phone stores or anywhere that would be able to help are open for the foreseeable future.

    This morning I spilled half a cup of coffee on the couch, but I thought it missed my phone. ISo I cleaned up the mess and left my phone alone. I went to plug in my phone about an hour ago, and just checked it and it is not charging. I pulled out the charger and it is sticky. So there is clearly coffee in the charging port. Is there anything I can do to get this fixed, quickly if possible?

    Thanks!

    What's the best manufacturer for rooting capabilities?

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 10:50 AM PDT

    Automatically connect to preferred Wi-Fi network.

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 10:42 AM PDT

    Ok, so I have two Wi-Fi networks at my home. One is using the standard AT&T router and the other is a Netgear router that runs PiHole. I'd like for my phone to automatically connect to the Netgear router, but the AT&T router has a stronger signal and my phone seems to want to connect to it over the Netgear router.

    I'd rather not "forget" the AT&T router, as occasionally I need to use it. How can I set up my phone to connect to the Netgear router automatically?

    Running Android 10 if that makes a difference.

    Locking apps

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 06:25 AM PDT

    Before upgrading to Android 10, you had the option to pin an app so it didn't get cleared. I see that we have the option to lock the app now, but is there a way to pin it like before?

    Thanks!

    Location spoofing being detected

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 09:33 AM PDT

    Sorry if this is in the wrong sub, I couldn't find any other appropriate subreddit for this question. So I've been trying to listen to a japanese radio station for a long time. However, I keep getting stuck because the app requires me to be in Japan and it detects that I am spoofing my location. Does anyone know if I can bypass this possibly? I'm willing to open up IDE just to make sure it works. App name is radiko if anyone needs

    I need some help with battery drain

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 08:53 AM PDT

    So i've noticed that my battery is lasting way less than it used to in a 2 month old redmi 8a, I used to get 12 hr of SOT with some heavy gaming and watching youtube and stuff (and even then I charged it when it got to 25%) and now i'm getting around 7-8with lighter usage.

    I used the xiaomi debloat tools to see if it helped my battery life but it didn't, hell I think it made it worse, I also installed cpu-z to see if my cpu usage is high and I think it is, 4 cores are alway at 1600 mhz with the screen on and doing nothing and the other cores are always fluctuating from 600 to that or higher

    If any of you can give me some ideas i'd aprecciate it, but the thing is I don't want to root or install a custom rom because I can't risk anything going wrong and bricking my device because I'll never be able to buy a new one ( I'm venezuelan).

    Unknown storage being used up

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 08:45 AM PDT

    So I use a 60GB SD card for whatever I can move from my phone onto. On the phone itself, storage is capped at 32GB. Before the last update, I had managed to clean files and app caches which got me down 29GB. Post update, I got down to 28GB.

    Though, now I am at 31gb and i cannot go down. I use app cleaners and file manager apps, there is nothing new that i have noticed. Im sick of always having to clear more internal storage space just for it to randomly go back up to 30-31GB.

    How do i fix this? I am asking for the Galaxy S7 Edge.

    How to silence notifications

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 08:09 AM PDT

    Hi all!

    Sorry if that's a noob question! But I am somewhat annoyed and can't figure it our on my own. Maybe someone here knows?

    Up to now, I've always used my phone in vibrate-only mode. However, I work for a relief organization and am currently supposed to establish enhanced operational readiness. Hence, I need to set up my phone in a way that a (loud!) alarm rings in case I receive an SMS message (our alert system works on SMS), and probably phone (just in case). If I do so, however, every mail, chat message, calendar push notification etc. will as well trigger a sound.

    I don't want to de-activate notifications for all these apps though. I like to get a (silent, vibrating) notification in case I receive an e-mail or chat message; don't want to miss these of course. But it is unbearable to get an alarm sound every few minutes due to these apps.

    How can I set up Android (9) so that only my SMS and Phone app trigger a sound with their notifications? I looked through the Notification menu but could not quite find the option. Help is appreciated!

    Cheers

    My Redmi Note 7 opened normally and went black after water damage

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 07:56 AM PDT

    So I accidentally dropped my phone into a pail of water and I noticed a little water inside the screen. A minute later, the touchscreen was not functioning. As a solution, I placed my phone in uncooked rice.

    After 12 hours, I checked the phone and was able to open it normally. It still has water inside. But after a few minutes the screen started flickering and went completely black. So I buried it again in uncooked rice. This time, with silica gel.

    After another 30 hours, I checked once again and the same thing happened. It opened normally but after a few minutes it went black.

    Is it because there still water inside? Is there any way this could be solved? Or should I consider buying a new screen?

    "Packet address" directly to a Discord channel

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 07:54 AM PDT

    So, I'm trying to find a way to get "Missed notifications" from a spesific Discord server, or even better, channel.

    At the moment, I'm using $if(ni(pcount, com.discord.app.AppActivity)=0, "#00000000", "#FF8F3337")$

    I've tried removing AppActivity and app, and when just using com.discord, I get every activity in the app that I haven't muted.

    I'm using the exact same method, successfully, to get notifications in other apps, where if there is no notification, the "colour" of the notification badge is transparent, and once a notification comes in it becomes #FF8F3337(burgundy'ish)

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Moto G4 hardware issues

    Posted: 25 Mar 2020 06:51 AM PDT

    I've had this G4 for about 4 years now, and recently it's been having issues. Often it freezes and reboots, sometimes it freezes when it boots and then it gets stuck. I have to hold to power button down to force shutdown. It's basically unusable because it crashes so often. Right now it is stuck off(or at least the screen is off), it crashed in the middle of me swiping through an iFunny ad on snapchat and stayed stuck on that for a good five hours. I finally noticed and shut it down by holding the power button for 30s.
    Could this all be done by a failing battery? I know the battery is bad(never changed it), could it do something like this?
    ps: I noticed a spot that gets hot on the motherboard sometimes during rebooting. Area next to the power button. pps: Tried changing the OS to Havoc, hasn't changed anything

    After updating to Android 10, my Samsung Galaxy A51 has become considerably slower. Is this directly related to the update? If so, what should I do?
