    Android Questions: Is there any way to change the way you choose date/time?


    Is there any way to change the way you choose date/time?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 10:03 AM PDT

    I hate the format of the time selector on my android phone. Here's a screenshot. I wish it was a scroll wheel, like the one on iPhones. Is there any way I can change it?

    What Have I missed (returning to android from apple)

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 12:19 PM PDT

    I was an avid android user back in 2012/2013 (Sony xperia). I loved the customization especially when I rooted my phone and under-clocked it when not in use to lower battery consumption. However my family were big on the cult of apple and I ended up getting a few iPhones along the way (accepted them because why say no to a free and good phone right? Also made things like sharing chargers much easier)

    Well folks I've gotten a bit tired of apples proprietary crap and have gone out of my way to come back to android. What have I missed since I was gone? (Moving from iPhone 6s to a mid range android). I'm already liking the fast charge, the mega sized batteries etc but what else? I've also noticed a few major brands like htc vanishing. What can I look forward to back in the promised land of freedom as it were ;)?

    Designs of Old Flagship Phones

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 10:20 AM PDT

    I recently saw reviews of old flagship phones like HTC One M7/8 and Nexus 5 and relised that old flagship phones were very sexy and there was a lot of innovation that used to happen in terms of design. Whereas flagship phone nowadays, they all look same. I personally think smartphone industry need a big change in phone design department.

    Does anyone agrees with me? Also, do you miss the designs of old smart phones??

    How could I stream my phone over wifi, to my PC, with no root, and with Remote Control.

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 09:53 AM PDT

    Hey. Before I had my current Zenfone 6, I had a samsung s6. With it, I could use an app called SideSync that samsung provided, which allowed me to stream and control my phone from my pc.

    I was wondering if it's possible to do that with any android. I play this game called Fate/Grand Order that doesn't boot up when the phone is rooted, so traditional options didn't work. USB Debugging will stop the game from launching too, so I must do it over Wi-Fi.

    The game is a pain to transfer over devices so I don't want to switch to an emulator either. I want to simply stream my phone's screen to my PC, and have control over it with the mouse.

    I know this is perhaps too much to ask, but I don't want to pay for this service either. I know of some apps that allow all this if you pay for the premium versions, but I don't trust them to work. I've tried teamviewer which supposedly would work exactly as I described and it didn't work, so I'm not very confident.

    Thanks in advance for the suggestions.

    My name showed up on a complete strangers phone when I called him today. How??

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 01:35 PM PDT

    Android 10
    Xiaomi Mi 9T
    I was out on customer calls today and forgot my work phone in the office. So I used my own to make some calls. As I called my next appointment in the afternoon he answered by saying "Hello, OPs full name. How are you?"
    When I got to the house he said that he has Smart Call activated on his phone so any numbers in the system show up. There is zero way he would have my personal number.
    So.
    How the hell is my personal private number on this system that its showing up on strangers phones but more importantly... How do I remove it??

    Video length issues

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 01:31 PM PDT

    Hello. Very long story short:

    I took an hour of video footage, had to scrap it. Went to retake the video, now my phone has a 15 minute timer on the video length. How did that happen, and how do I get past it?

    Thanks.

    [Q] Screenshot to Text?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 01:31 PM PDT

    Hi!

    So, on my jailbroken iPhone XS I have a genious tweak that I can click on when I take a screenshot, where it converts the text on the screenshot-text into actual text you can copy.

    Anything that does this seamlessly on Android? (Running Galaxy S10e if it matters)

    Songs not appearing on Music App

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 09:39 AM PDT

    As per the title says, some of my downloaded tracks do not appear on my "Music" App. I'm on a Realme X2 Pro and the tracks appear in Google Play Music (which I don't use because I prefer the music app) and on my audio section in the file manager.

    Is there any way to solve this problem? Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Intermittent Audio Quality with Every Bluetooth Device

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 09:24 AM PDT

    I have a Moto Z4, which I've only had for few months. Up until two or three weeks ago, my Bluetooth Speaker, Bluetooth Headphones, and the Bluetooth stereo in my vehicle worked just fine. I mainly use the Tidal streaming service with my Bluetooth devices, but the quality is even worse with YouTube and Deezer - it's worth noting that Tidal, YouTube, and Deezer work fine when I'm not using a Bluetooth device to play audio from my phone. I've followed instructions from every faq and message board that I could find, even going so far as to factory reset my phone, but nothing helps. If someone could help me out, I'd appreciate it - I miss my music.

    Galaxy S10 picking up usb microphone intermittently.

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 12:41 PM PDT

    I bought an external microphone for my galaxy S10 because I don't want to use the default microphones. Now there is an issue when I for example send voice messages on Instagram or when I record a video. The sound on one recording is fine and great while when I start the second one and finish it there is no sound at all. It's really annoying. I've checked the connections adapters and they are fine and the microphone works great otherwise. Is this a software glitch that android is known for or just something about my setup that causes this issue?

    Grey screen with clock and question marks?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 12:24 PM PDT

    This is what it looks like

    This screen has been popping up sometimes over my lock screen or home screen, and it seems to happen when I swipe up.

    To get rid of it I just swipe up and it goes away.

    I'm using a Samsung s10, Verizon, Nova launcher, goodlock for the lock screen, material islands for the wallpaper.

    What's going on and how can I get rid of it?

    Is there a phone that takes pictures as fast as a Pixel?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 12:19 PM PDT

    Obviously my Pixel 2 takes amazing pictures, but it also does it almost instantly. My wife for example has a Galaxy S9+ and her pictures aren't terrible but they take a long time to shoot. When it comes to taking pictures of our kids, every millisecond counts so she usually uses my phone. I feel like this is not a topic I can find anyone talking about so it is hard to research.

    Can't transfer files from Android to PC

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 11:34 AM PDT

    I've tried everything I can think of to transfer file from my Galaxy s8 to my Windows 10 PC

    One day my phone worked fine and I could transfer files, and then the next day it just stopped being recognized by my PC. I tried another PC and it still didn't work. The phone will only charge, but it doesn't show up under File Explorer or Device Manager, so I am unable to transfer files.

    Contacted Samsung and they couldn't figure it out either.

    Does anyone have any advice? THanks.

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 03:59 AM PDT

    If there is an OTA update for Android, I have to uninstall Magisk first?

    So uninstall Magisk, reboot, install OTA update, then reinstall Magisk?

    Crazy screen

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 11:16 AM PDT

    Today my dad came with problems on his cell phone. It is an LG K10. The problem is that when you turn it on the screen does not respond and does actions on its own as if someone is controlling it. I deleted all important accounts and data as a precaution. I think it must be a screen calibration issue. Can someone help me?

    Block Autoupdate for just a few apps

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 11:06 AM PDT

    I want to use Auto Update for most of my apps, but need to block updates on three of my apps. I used to be able to do that on older phones, but search results find only "how to" for older phones, not Android 10

    Phone loses connections randomly.

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 11:04 AM PDT

    I have an old Samsung s4 gt-i19506 (android 5.0.1).

    Sometimes my phone loses any and all connections for about 5-10 seconds. This usually happens shortly after turning the screen on or during a call. For some reason, this does not disconnect me from the call but instead closes the call interface as if the call had ended, while the call continues normally. Internet connection on the other hand disappears 'correctly'.

    This issue first started last year, and when it became more frequent I eventually resorted to factory resetting my phone. This fixed the issue for about a month, after which I posted here asking for help.

    I was told to restart my phone, which surprisingly did fix the issue (even though restarting had no effect before). From then on the issue would re-appear once a month and restarting the phone would fix it temporarily.

    Recently the issue became more persistent and now I have to restart my phone at least once a day.

    Lenovo P2 very rarely fast charging these days

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 11:03 AM PDT

    I'm using the stock charger. It does fast charge very rarely and seemingly randomly. Restarting or shutting down the phone doesn't seem to make any difference. Any ideas? I turned off the screen saver feature and it didn't help.

    I hate the Arabic UI font

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 06:34 AM PDT

    come on guys, who thought that using a Naskh font for the UI is a good idea? i know that seems trivial, but it's the same as using Times New Roman for a UI font (most people will hate it), the Kufi one was much better (even though it's badly balanced), i hate using my phone in arabic for that reason, i can't be the only one hating it, can i ?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 09:01 AM PDT

    (This is for a friend) My friend is asking for help as she thinks her husband installed an app on her phone that lets him know if she is texting with other people. As she tells me, she can be texting and her husband calls her and asks her what shes doing and tells her that he knows she is texting cause he can see it on his phone (?).

    Her phone is a Samsung S20, android version 10.

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 08:45 AM PDT

    When I watch a video that is not in the phones settings language like in English for example Sometimes the subtitles are turned on, then I turn them off and they turn back on after each ad

    What's weird is that they're not on by default on every English video, just some of them

    Auto subtitles are turned off in my YouTube settings so I don't know what's causing that

    Verizon Galaxy S10e, can I swap to a prepaid AT&T sim card and use AT&T's network while traveling?

    Posted: 23 Jun 2020 08:33 AM PDT

    Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S10E I bought through Verizon about a year ago. I will be in a remote area that Verizon has no coverage, but according to coverage maps AT&T does have coverage. I will be in the area for about 2 weeks. It would be awesome if I could get a prepaid AT&T SIM and just swap cards and have a working phone. Does anyone know if this is possible? Will I need to flash a new OS to do this? Will my phone even work at all on AT&T's network? Thank you guys for your help!
