    Android Questions: How do I adjust swipe vs touch sensitivity?


    How do I adjust swipe vs touch sensitivity?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 09:43 AM PDT

    Hi there.

    Sometimes, I'm reading a e-book and I want to scroll down the page, but if my swipe it isn't perfectly vertical, the app detects a slight horizontal motion and move to the next page. In times like this, I wish I had a option to decrease swipe sensibility.

    On the other hand, when playing shooter games, if I want to move slightly my aim, the game detects it as a touch and not a swipe. I need to do a larger swipe (who throws off my aim) and then the app detects as a swipe.

    Is there a option (or app) where I can calibrate touch vs swipe sensitivity?

    Can I use my phone as a mouse to my laptop/desktop?

    Posted: 04 Apr 2020 11:53 PM PDT

    Is there any way or an app that can make my phone act as a mouse? Ive tried a few apps in the play store but all of them seem to be controlled by touch (like a touchpad). I want it in a way that whenever I move my phone, the cursor moves. I need it to play games and I cant go out to buy one because of home quarantine.

    Unable to use wifi connection or LTE after updating to Android 10

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 03:00 AM PDT

    I just got my pixel 3 yesterday and was happily updating my phone to android 10; worst decision ever.

    After I updated the phone, the wifi function and LTE function will malfunction after a couple of minutes of usage.

    It's not like it connected to a wifi but no internet comes in, it just would not let me turn on wifi or LTE at all.

    I have tried resetting to factory setting a couple of times, tried booting it in safe mode, only little to know information was found online, all to no avail for this problem.

    HERE you can see the wifi button not being able to turn on.

    If anyone has a fix for this I would love to know and use my phone properly, I don't want to reset it anymore.

    Thanks!!

    My Samsung J3 started with a picture of kim jon un in the camera roll

    Posted: 04 Apr 2020 04:51 PM PDT

    So I got my phone about a year ago and there is a picture of kim jon un from the 23rd of Feb 2016 a month before the phone was released. Just wondering if anyone else has ever seen this happen.

    Why doesn't Huawei update the EMUI more than twice in one device?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 05:27 AM PDT

    I have the experience of Huawei that they never update their EMUI more than twice. Why are they doing that? Is it because they want us to purchase more of their phones when ours is no longer eligible for more updates? Does anyone know? I'm currently stuck at EMUI 9.1 and going to change to Samsung in late autumn. D:

    Lock screen launcher?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 08:59 AM PDT

    Hey guys it possible to have this type of lock screen on my pixel? (You know with te shortcuts in the corners) All you guys say is that Android is super customizable compared to iOS and yet l can't find a way to customize my lock screen setup without disabling the face recognition feature because every launcher that I try only uses a pin code (and you have to disable your device security options so that way you don't have two lock screens)

    Notification Sounds Disappearing?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 11:41 AM PDT

    This has happened a few times now, and I can't find any common action or reason. Sometimes, notification sounds stop playing. Some apps will have no notification sound at all, others will revert to the standard default tone that has been baked into AOSP since the beginning of time. When I go to an app's notification settings, it will show the sound's name in its interface, but when I tap on it to go to the list of sounds, the list is empty except for "None" and "Ringtone from internal storage", with the latter being selected. If I go back, what was the name of the sound has been replaced with a number. Rebooting the device brings back the list of notification sounds, but I have to go through and fix my custom settings for every app. Even the system default notification sound reverts to the factory default.

    Any idea what might be causing this? I've had this phone for about 2 weeks now.

    Device Details:

    OnePlus 7T (HD1905)

    Oxygen OS 10.0.8.HD65AA (Android 10, January 1 2020 security patch) - OTA

    Not vendor locked, purchased directly from manufacturer.

    Bootloader unlocked, rooted with Magisk 20.4, no further modifications to boot or system images.

    "mmc_read_failed" on an old s5, dead memory chip?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 12:16 AM PDT

    I'm getting this error on an old backup phone now and flashing via odin seems to do nothing. Is this just a dead memory chip, meaning the phone's officially a paperweight or spare parts?

    How to remove sharing suggestions?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 09:47 AM PDT

    A while back I used the share feature to upload a single photo to a Google drive folder for work. Now anytime I hit share, whether it be on a reddit post or browser window, it auto suggests that Google drive folder more often than not even though I use always choose other options now. How can I make that suggestion go away and actually suggest the things I use more often?

    I've tried unpinning it but it's still there.

    I'm on a moto x4 running Android 9.

    Identify what's not backed up?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 09:27 AM PDT

    It's time for me to reset my device (Samsung S6) to factory and start fresh. Is there a way to identify what's NOT backed up by Google Play etc.?

    In the PC world I can use a p2v tool (physical to virtual) to create a virtual machine snapshot of the computer's current state, nuke and pave it to a fresh OS install, and then run the two side by side for the next few weeks until satisfied I have transferred enough.

    Is there a similar thing for mobile devices?

    Note this is quite different from a snapshot of the filesystem. I've done that for my phone, but I don't know the Android filesystem so while I have everything (that can be copied by non-root user) I don't know what's significant.

    My new LG only has Google Messaging. How did I get the original LG messaging software?

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 09:20 AM PDT

    I upgraded my LG phones. My last one LG Stylo had the LG messaging app. I really loved the app, because it let me do stuff like scheduled texting and I could read blocked texts if I wanted too and download group messages without WIFI. It was less bulky too. I return to LG because of the features such as the app. Google messaging requires body sensors to use their messaging app and it is just not a straight forward. How do I get the original LG messaging app?

    How do I import RAW files to my PC

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 05:28 AM PDT

    I took about 20 RAW photos which i want to import to my computer, and I can't. Using both photos and just browsing the phone shows me only the JPEGs. How can i properly import all of them at once? (i really do not feel like sending each 20Mb file through an email one by one)

    I68

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 08:18 AM PDT

    Hi, I'm a tech idiot but own a i68 box and I have no idea what I can use it for.

    I also have a g1 Apple TV box I don't know what to do with.

    Any advice? They are both essentially paperweights in my house.

    thanks ✌️

    GIF options missing from Facebook Messenger

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 07:18 AM PDT

    On every android phone I've had previously I could select gifs from the messenger "drop down" menu. But ever since I got my Samsung Galaxy A70 the only options left are Poll and Location.

    Completely new to Android. Just learning of "kernel tweaking"

    Posted: 04 Apr 2020 06:22 PM PDT

    I barely understand what this means, however I have discovered that by going through tutorials, that one could do things like improve sd card performance, improve battery life, and many other things. Of course this interests me, but as I said I am new to android and I barely understand what this really means. I have hacked a lot of gaming consoles in the past and jailbroken many iphones, but that is about it. Definitely very new to all of this.

    My device is the UMIDIGI A3X. Would it be possible to flash stock Android 10 onto this device (once I learn how to do this safely, still have to learn this) and then simply follow tutorials on kernel tweaks for the desired changes I want, without really truly understanding this kind of programming on a real level? In another words just going through the steps for the desired performance changes I seek.

    Or am I way out of my depth here?

    Camera of Sony Z5 compact not working, among other things

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 04:05 AM PDT

    Hi all,

    my wife has a Xpera Z5 compact and since yesterday it has some issues:

    • both cameras won't open. When I tap the camera, the screen goes black (back, home, open apps still work) and after a while I get the message that the app is not responding or that it could not be started. The support app can also not start the app and says I should restart the device, which does nothing, as does clearing cache of the camera. The camera is also not working from within other apps such as Instagram and Signal and will crash them upon trying to take a picture.

    • flashlight not working: This is probably linked to the camera?

    • phone is very warm even when doing very little: while I searched for solutions on chrome on the phone it got not hot, but definitely too warm for just googling and reading. My guess is about 40-45°C (104-113°F)

    • cannot install some apps: I tried to install CPU-Z from the store to check the temperature but after installation the app gets uninstalled immediately and some application named "pip" sends a notification "package deleted: a package is deleted due to somc policy" which I find very sketchy. Tapping the notification does nothing. I tried installing another app (Babbel) to see if it would be uninstalled too, but this time the app was properly installed.

    The last app that was installed was a file browser which I have used on my XZ1 compact for ages without problems. The last app update was Signal, yesterday.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Help with IPHONE(friend) MMS to Android(me)

    Posted: 05 Apr 2020 02:18 AM PDT

    So my friend couldn't send photos on her IPHONE(We're trading pet photos), and I told her to enable MMS.

    She managed to figure out how and sent a photo but the photo arrived as... Lines of code; https://imgur.com/a/n9wvlkk

    I can send stuff to her, but her stuff shows up like that. I'm assuming it's my end that's the issue. I'm running a Xiaomi Redmi Note 7.
