    Android Questions: I have had some pretty important pictures deleted by accident and they aren't in the trashcan


    I have had some pretty important pictures deleted by accident and they aren't in the trashcan

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 10:09 AM PDT

    As the titel states, i cannot find the pictures. I k ow that the trashcan deletes pictures after 30 days, but if i delete just some random photo from today, it doesn't appear in the trash. But the trashcan still works normally for private folders. Anyone got any idea on how to get back the pictures?

    Play 2 songs from 2 apps at once

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 05:45 AM PDT

    Hello, I need help, I'm looking for a way to read several audio sources at the same time on my phone, without the first one being cut off. Example: Youtube and Spotify at the same time. Can you tell me how I could do this? Do I need a specific programme? I'm willing to pay for it. Thank you.

    Google Play store keeps thinking I'm in a different country when I'm not

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 10:42 AM PDT

    Hi all

    I'm not sure if I'm the only one, but has anyone experienced their Google Play store not being in the country their account is set as?

    I've got a UK account, but since the last update my Google Play store is displaying everything in USD, and on top of that, I'm unable to install UK based apps as the app apparently isn't available in my country.

    Any advice would be appreciated...

    For info:

    • Oneplus 7T Pro

    • Stock Oxygen O/S (no root)

    • Account was created over 15 years ago in the UK, not once changed the country

    • YouTube Premium is shared as I'm part of a (UK) family account

    Many thanks

    Some apps started malfunctioning out of the blue

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:43 AM PDT

    I have a Samsung A3 android phone (2017 make running android 8.0) and have been loving it so far because it's small and lighter. Gets lost in pocket. Now I'm afraid I'll have to replace it soon.

    Began 2 hours ago. Gmail crashes after opening, the send feedback feature crashes if I choose to send feedback. Chrome does the same. Google Maps works fine. Some other 3rd party apps don't work. Whatsapp works fine. I haven't updated anything or done anything out of the ordinary before this happened. Googled it but no luck.

    Do you know what's happening? Thanks.

    Updated my A50 to android 10 and it's basically a brick now. Any tips?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:26 AM PDT

    Updated my phone maybe 2 weeks ago. My carrier is Bell. Since then my touchpad has been off, not connecting to 4g, just freezing randomly, unable to load apps, long loading times for what does load, typing by itself even if my hands isn't even on the phone. Any idea how to fix this? Really frusturating that I can't use my phone for most tasks anymore.

    Does a factory reset totally reset?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 07:12 AM PDT

    A friend of mine bought a moto e running Android 10 the other day and had the guy in the store set it up for them, but got some weird vibes from the dude and was scared he did something iffy to the phone. I told my friend just to factory reset the phone and it should be OK, but I wanted to ask the subreddit if there's anything else they could check or should do to make sure it actually was secure after the reset?

    YouTube app being weird

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 09:00 AM PDT

    Rencently I've been having a few odd bugs with the YouTube app, mainly YouTube visors sometimes don't play audio when I play them but instead the captions are on automaticaly (my audio setting are fine) closing the vid and opening it again doesn't fix it but closing the app and opening it does somehow.

    Another weird thing is that my search suggestions are off,when searching somthing the app does try to autocomplete the search for me as it used to do (my search history is off but it still used to throw suggestions at me while im searching things and it suddenly stopped).

    Also im seeing alot of posts ofrom accounts getting randomly suspended on r/youtube even tho they dont upload,whats that about?

    I request help with an issue with my father's old phone.

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 12:15 PM PDT

    My father is one of those use it until it breaks type of people and has been using his Motorola Droid Mini (XT1030) for 7 years at this point. He finally got a new phone, motorola g power, now that his battery is shot and none of his texts can transfer over. The store has tried everything they could think of.

    Does anyone know a way to save the texts to a computer or another way to send the texts over to the new phone? The texts are with the basic text app that comes with the phone not a third party app.

    Does location sharing really affect battery?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 12:57 AM PDT

    So my wife, the kids and I all have location sharing setup with each other in maps.

    Does anyone know if this impacts battery life in any significant way?

    Location is set to always on in maps anyway but I do get the little location sharing icon in the status bar frequently.

    Missing text messages when switching apps or backup/restoring

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 12:07 PM PDT

    I used a Samsung Galaxy S10+ with the default Message app (I think that is built by Samsung). I tried transferring, backing up and restoring, and I am missing several messages I sent in the threads. So I tried switching from the default Message app to the Google Message app and also SMS Organizer on the original phone but when I do that those same messages don't move into the new app.

    Any thoughts? Ultimately I would like them all to be on my new phone (Android, but not a Samsung)

    Thanks.

    How can i add holidays to my calendar?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 05:59 AM PDT

    I am using a Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra with Android 10 and can't find any option to add holidays to the Samsung Calendar app. I have three horizontal lines at the top left. If i click on that i can change the view and look at my accounts. If i choose the gear symbol in this view i can change colours and different stuff but no holidays. Do i need to make these settings in a different app or location?

    How do you judge a phone camera's MP?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 02:32 AM PDT

    I am a bit confused when it comes to camera resolution on mobile phones, how they're ranked and what they mean realistically.

    I'm on LG G6, which has 13MP camera. It's a bit dated by now, so I'm starting looking into a new phone and reading some specs.

    Take Galaxy S10 for example, with 12mp camera. Kinda weird that a flagship released couple years after my phone has lower resolution, but resolution isn't everything, image processing, sensors, light sensitivity etc matters more so whatever. Then a year later we have S10 lite with 48MP sensor, which sounds like a step-up from it's "premium" model. Odd jump but okay.

    Current mid-top phones have 32/48/64MP cameras, which seems reasonable as tech develops, even if photo results are downscaled you still often have access to higher res which is a nice bonus. And then comes again the rumoured S20 FE, with leaks suggesting a 12MP camera.

    Isn't 12MP ridiculously low for 2020 phone in the higher price range, compared to its big brother having 64MP camera? Or if it's kinda similar in output, why reasons for 64MP sensor to begin with, what's the practical difference?

    Love androids, but almost every phone I've owned died with a black screen and went unresponsive

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 08:59 AM PDT

    I have two on my desk right now and I think another in my car - all back screen, no response of any kind. Had to upgrade. Lost data.

    What is up with that? How do you prevent it? Can you recover from it? I've found no good guides or articles online about the issue.

    Can't find missed call that I failed to answer?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 08:56 AM PDT

    I was on the phone with my Dad, who is sick, when a recruiter from a company I have applied for a job with called. This call is very important. A messaged displayed on my screen about "Verifying a business" which I had never seen before. As I tried to switch over from my Dad's call, the other call was lost, and there is no record on my verizon app, or web call logs about the call. I have no way to call them back and do not want to miss the job opportunity. I am 100% sure I did not hang up on them, it just vanished/dropped without a trace. Where can I find the number that called me so I can return the call?

    My mother recently updated her phone and can no longer receive or make calls. She can text. When she tries to make a call a prompt appears that says "Call is not connected, would you like to retry?" Is this an issue easily resolved in the settings or do I need to dig deeper?

    Motorola Edge Plus vs Samsung S10 Plus

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 07:33 AM PDT

    So after over a decade of company provided phones I've accepted a new position which does reimbursement instead of providing one. I'm currently on a Note 10 after trading my s10 Plus, I've got big paws so I usually go for the largest phone i can. The Motorola caught my eye as its bigger than the s10+, has a bigger battery, twice the ram and twice the on board storage (granted no micro SD slot tho) and quite comparable in price. Case availability for the Motorola is pretty poor but I'm sure I can find something decent. Anyone out there interested in chiming in with their opinion on which is better? Or if you're an edge plus user I'd love to hear what you have to say about the device. Thanks in advance guys really hoping to about your opinions/experiences!

    How do you remove album art on lock screen when music is playing?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 07:27 AM PDT

    Hi! I just got a new phone (OnePlus 7t Pro Mclaren Ed) and when I'm playing/listening to music, the album art is on the lock screen.

    I'm not really a big fan of that and just prefer the simple small widget instead of the album art of the song covering my whole lockscreen.

    Is there a way to change it?

    Do you encrypt your android phone?

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 07:15 AM PDT

    I know phone encryption gives more security, but entering a password every time i need to use my phone is kind of inconvenient.

    Bricked Galaxy S9 out of nowhere? Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 issue???

    Posted: 11 Sep 2020 06:31 AM PDT

    Quick breakdown: I was driving, galaxy s9 plugged into android auto at 100% battery. Out of nowhere the maps/music stop and my watch disconnects from bluetooth.

    Get home and screen is black, no haptic feedback, but there is a blue led (notification light) blinking. However all the tricks to get it to shut down/reset/reboot/restart aren't working. Took it to tmobile (I'm sprint but they merged) at this point but they said they couldn't do anything until the phone died since there was no way to shut it off.

    Finally died this morning and we charged it up and tried booting it up again. No luck. My partner plugged it into their computer only to get the Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 indication.. Googling says it means my phone is bricked.

    Is there any advice on what to do at this point? I've had this phone for 1 year and 4 months and I've never had a phone just go belly up like this. I can't afford a new one and I'm panicking because my phones usually last at least 3-4 years!
