    Android Questions: How To Listen To Audio From A Video With The Screen Off


    How To Listen To Audio From A Video With The Screen Off

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 08:38 AM PDT

    MOTO G6 PLAY

    I used to be able to play a YT video, but turn the screen off. I want to be able to do that again!

    I could do this by playing the YT video, then pressing the 'square' virtual button located at the lower right of the screen.

    This would cause the video to play, but as a smaller 'picture in picture.'

    If I then tapped this 'picture in picture' mini video, it would get slightly larger, and display a few icons over the little video.

    One of those was an icon of earphones.

    If you tapped the earphone icon...not sure exactly what used to happen, but it would basically hide the video but it would continue to play. Then I could turn the screen off and the video would still play.

    Then when you turned the screen back on, there would be a box that would let you pause/play/forward/back on that video, along with your other notifications like you got a text, you have an upcoming alarm etc.

    This was important because if the screen is on with the video playing, then any little bump against the screen will register as an intentional input and turn the video off, and start doing whatever it it is that got pressed on the screen.

    I lost the ability to do this when two things happened close together in time...

    1] I did something wrong and erased the native search bar.

    When I got the phone it had a little bar in the middle of the screen you would enter searches into. Never really thought about it until I swiped it the wrong way or tried to move it around and tben it was gone! I got another one from Chrome, I think, but it looks and acts different. it's like it's not integrated with the rest of the phone in the same way that the old one was.

    Also after I lost my original search bar, I lost the ability to play the videos as described. If you know how to bring this superior integrated search bar back that would be cool.

    2] We stopped subscribing to Google Play around this time, also Google Play stopped existing the same way or something, not quite sure.

    Could it have been a benefit of Google Play?

    Well thanks for the help and sorry about this overly long question.

    3?] I have Duck Duck Go app, which seems to be engaged in a power struggle with other browsing and search functions, not sure if that's relevant.

    Software to mirror screen to Windows and keymap actions

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 08:25 AM PDT

    I'm looking for a screen mirroring software with keymapping support I can use to play android games on PC. My PC is pretty low end so that takes emulators out of the picture.

    Oneplus 6 safetynet failed, how do i pass?

    Posted: 17 Oct 2020 11:45 PM PDT

    Situation: trying tot degoogle on oneplus 6 running Los for microg and magisk +magiskhide yet safetynet test fails both basicintegrity and cts. What do i need to do pass both?

    Edit: turns out i did not notice it was a api error wich i fixed with droid gaurd. yet both basic integrity and cts fail but at least it runs! after that i hid all microg stuff but the droid gaurd helper wont hide, it resets itself as unhidden. how come? because i suspect thats one of the things that signals root to google.

    Addit:i read in the magisk module: microg installer revivied (wichh i dont need as i have microg built in and everything checked, but the info in its description is usufull) that droidgaurd needs to be installed as an system app. how do i do that ?

    Update xz2c to latest Android firmware?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 10:18 AM PDT

    I have been waiting for official LineageOS support for my Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact for years - finally, it's out now! But the Installation instructions warn that I have to " ensure that the device is on the latest Android 10 firmware" before proceeding. But no remarks whatsoever on how to obtain this. My bootloader is unlocked and I run rooted stock 52.0.A.8.50 firmware (with Magisk installed) so I cannot use Sony PC Companion, and other methods using Xperifirm seem very risky to me. Is it really necessary to upgrade to Stock Android 10? Can someone give a link to a really working instruction? Any help would be very appreciated.

    Is there a list of how the factory (Google) apps that are preinstalled on a Pixel changes in each release? For example, if I wipe a Pixel 3 and install the latest Factory Image, I (presume) it will remove Allo and include perhaps Recorder?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 12:15 PM PDT

    I'm curious how the Factory Images differ with each release. I've had my Pixel 3 since launch, and I've used it a lot, including installing Google Apps from other Pixel releases, etc. I am considering wiping it and flashing the latest Android 11 Factory Image to get a "fresh" install once again, and wondering what benefits it might afford me.

    Obviously, it will remove a lot of apps I've installed and lost track of over time (some Go apps, etc.) and will give me a clean experience, but I'm also curious how it'll affect the original provided apps.

    Group Message timestamp wrong, note9

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 12:00 PM PDT

    Whenever I have messages come through in a group message they show that they came in an hour later than the actual time. Because of this, when I send a message it shows correct time but puts mine in the order of time stamps. I've searched for a fix but cannot find anything with my problem. Thanks in advance.

    Utilize SD card formatted as internal storage

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 11:52 AM PDT

    Hi! I have a mother with a Nokia running Android One with 16GB of internal storage, so I added a SD card formatted as internal storage. Everything should be on there, except it says that there is still 2GB's of photo's on the internal storage. I have no way to move these photo's and videos, because the file manager says that it is all 1 big storage device. How do I solve this?

    The notification shade doesn't pull down sometimes until i lock the screen and wake the phone again

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 11:48 AM PDT

    I'm using OnePlus 6 with the most up to date Oxygen. The problem is that sometimes the notification shade just doesn't pull down no matter how many times I swipe down, which means I have to press the power button to lock the phone, and then wake it up again, and then it does work, until it doesn't again.

    Why is this happening?

    In my Android phone(Asus Zenfone 6). I was just checking the Permissions manager and for storage it showed 27 out of 44 apps. But when I counted there's only 26 listed. Is it some bug? Should I be worried?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 11:20 AM PDT

    Its also one app less in Camera and physical activity permissions.

    Do any launchers support organising apps by frequency of use?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 07:29 AM PDT

    Just got a new A51 and it's really bugging me that the app drawer is either completely unordered or alphabetical. My old Xperia Z3 had the option to sort based on frequency of use (i.e. most frequently used app would appear first, then second and it would dynamically reorder them over time based on use history).

    I've switched over to Nova already but that still sorts alphabetically besides giving the option for locking frequently used apps to the top row.

    How do I disable call blocking or receive a notification when calls are blocked?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 10:49 AM PDT

    I keep accidentally blocking calls on my contact list and I think the person is just not responding and it takes a while before I realize the number is blocked. Can I disable the feature to block calls or set it up so that it requires a password to block numbers or can I at least set it up so that I receive a notification when a call is blocked?

    Trying to either reset my network settings, or just factory reset my phone, but the above keeps happening. Any ideas? Also, when I try to power my phone down, it never does, and only a forced power down (holding the button) works.

    How do I record phone calls?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 12:48 AM PDT

    I'm in canada and it's legal for me to record phone calls.

    I use to have an app that lets me record phone calls. When I upgraded my android they stopped working (didn't change device). Screen recording works but no sound. Happens on phone calls, whatsapp, instagram and I imagine other apps as well.

    How do I enable phone call recording?

    Use TV as a second independent monitor via hdmi.

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 04:07 AM PDT

    Hi,

    does anyone know if it is possible to connect my Huawei P30 Pro to a normal commercial TV via USB-C to HDMI Cable and not just mirror the screen of my mobile phone, but use it like a second independent monitor?

    I would like to connect it to a TV and watch football on it, while i still can use my phone to surf, read, flame my fantasy opponent 😁.

    I sadly could only find topics about using the phone as a second monitor, but thats not what i need.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Circumvent device ban?

    Posted: 18 Oct 2020 10:30 AM PDT

    Got banned off an app out of the blue and can't even make a new account since they ban every new one before I can even finish setting it up, tried contacting them, tried switching WiFi, tried vpns, tried downloading and reinstalling the app, still no luck. I know they banned my device (p30), but I don't know how. Luckily, I have an old s6 edge I don't use often, and I downloaded the app again (using my phones data) and successfully made an account, only problem is I'm scared it might happen again, and I'm paranoid to even switch to my houses WiFi again since I don't know if they have it blacklisted or something. I feel like theres a way to circumvent device bans but I don't really know where to start, and I don't want to waste time rooting/resetting my whole phone if I don't need to, although I feel like I'll probably end up doing so. Does anyone have any insight into how device bans usually work and how they can be circumvented? Also, any forums dedicated to this kind of thing? All help is appreciated, tia

    Bug Report #2 Captured, Tap to Share Your Bug Report? How can I see what the bug was?

    Posted: 17 Oct 2020 09:24 PM PDT

    I have had this notification come up a couple times. If you tap it, it just goes away, presumably shared to Google, or Android, or OnePlus, or I don't know?

    Anyway, I want to know what the bug was! It just goes away when you tap it though... is there a way I can see it?
