    Android Questions: Why are the so many apps I can't move to SD?


    Why are the so many apps I can't move to SD?

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 06:37 AM PST

    I understand this for system relevant things. But I can't even move Twitter! Any way to override this? I'm running out of storage space 😅

    Honor 20 or Oneplus Nord?

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 05:15 AM PST

    Hi guys, I need a little help from you
    I have now a Honor 20 (or Huawei Nova 5t because it's the same phone) and it works like a charm for me: i can play on it on Call of Duty mobile with no issues and duting the day the little Honor flies through the apps that i use.

    I Have the possibility to buy a Oneplus Nord and I am interested in the 90 Hz oled display and in the software department but i am scared that the Snap 765G has lower power than Kirin 980 and maybe this can cause slowdown during the years (because i keep a smartphone for at least 3 years) or maybe with games. I think the battery life is almost the same because Honor has a LCD panel which is more hungry of power and the Oneplus has the Oled but it is 90Hz. Oneplus has the good thing of software updates for 3-4 years and the Honor has only one year left of updates

    What do you think guys? Do you think it is a good deal for me?

    Thank you very much for your help, i really appreciate it

    EDIT: I live in Italy just for information EDIT 2.0: since my father have to change his smartphone, if I buy the Nord, I will give the Honor to my father so it won't be wasted

    Questions about samsung galaxy m51's third party camera features(need an m51 user)

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 11:25 AM PST

    Hi. I want to buy a samsung galaxy m51 but I will use it for app development and need some specific camera2 features. Most phones have the features but all of them are optional, so I must be sure before buying it. Can someone check them for me? Parameters marked with x are essential for me and you can check them with Open Camera app from google play(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.sourceforge.opencamera&hl=tr&gl=US). Others are not that necessary but I can make use of them if someone can check if they work or not.

    I want to know which cameras are functional with third party camera apps and I need these parameters for available cameras(they may differ for each camera, please check again after switching camera)(in video mode, I won't use it for photos):
    x CONTROL_AE_ANTIBANDING_MODE: 50hz (open camaras settings --> processing settings --> antibanding-->50hz)
    x CONTROL_VIDEO_STABILIZATION_MODE: OFF (open camaras settings --> video settings --> enable video stabilization -->toggle off)
    DISTORTION_CORRECTION_MODE: OFF
    x EDGE_MODE: OFF (open camaras settings --> processing settings --> edge mode algorithm--> off)
    x NOISE_REDUCTION_MODE: OFF (open camaras settings --> processing settings --> noise reduction algorithm--> off)
    SHADING_MODE: OFF
    TONEMAP_CURVE (open camaras settings --> video settings --> video picture profiles --> log(medium))

    x min and max iso sensitivity (open camera--> exposure compensation button on top of the screen--> iso slider)
    x min and max shutter speed (open camera--> exposure compensation button on top of the screen--> shutter speed slider)
    x max 4:3 resolution (I need at least 2592x1944 but can use something like 4000x3000) (open camaras settings --> video settings--> resolution)
    x hevc support(at least 25 mbps) (open camaras settings --> video settings--> video format --> mpeg4 hevc)
    please test hevc with 30 mbps (open camaras settings --> video settings--> video bitrate --> 30mbps)

    10 bit hevc recording support(not sure if any android device does that without hdr10 but processor supports it)

    A short video sample of same scene(5-10 secs, full resolution,high contrast if possible) from open camera(with all parameters applied) and native camera app would be super useful.

    Thanks in advance.

    Please help! Keep Notes not supported by google play services

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 01:30 PM PST

    I have an older android (Moto G, I think) and have been keeping some detailed notes in Keep Notes. It was working fine a couple of days ago, but now Google Play Services has shit the bed and I get a "Keep Notes cannot open because your device is not supported by Google Play Services". It has not synced these notes with my Google Account since September, which is really, really bad. I need to save the content of these notes with their current info but I can't open the app to access them.

    Any ideas? Please help, it's really important that I salvage these notes. Everything online says to do a factory reset which is unacceptable. I don't care about the old phone, just the data on it.

    Hello there! The problem is that my phone can read the card but it says SD card is broken,but I can see the files if I use the card on my computer and I can transfer files on PC .Also I can't format the card on both of my devices.Is this caused by a virus-I scanned it avast says it was clean- or is it something else?

    P.s:When I try to format it on PC it says it is write-protected.

    How to mute a conversation in Messages? Option seems to have disappeared.

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 12:34 PM PST

    Messages by Google updated today and I can't find a way to mute a specific conversation anymore. The option to turn off notifications under Details > Notifications is gone, I can only switch to silent notifications.

    I tried joining the beta to see if the option was readded in beta but it still isn't there. I'm currently running 7.1.080 if that helps.

    Did this option move somewhere else? Am I missing something?

    Edit: By some weird work around, if I disable all "default settings" notifications then turn them back on, a list pops up for a bit which lists conversations and I can turn off individual ones from there. I have no idea why this is the only method I can find. If anyone has a less convoluted way, let me know!

    Is it possible to downgrade from Android 11 to Android 10 and how?

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 11:57 AM PST

    I have a Poco F2 Pro and recently I got the MIUI update based on Android 11. It has several bugs and not that much advantages compared to Android 10. Also, I am a Pokémon GO player and there's an issue with the GO Plus (a Bluetooth device). So is it possible to downgrade to 10 and how?
    Thanks for answering

    How to stop Bluetooth from auto connecting

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 05:24 AM PST

    I've had to unpaid everything except my cans, as my pixel 4a won't stop auto connecting all the time (I have many vehicles at work also driven by others) so I can be happily listening to a podcast on my cans then someone can drive by 40 feet away they get part of my audio briefly then when they get out of range my phone defaults to the phone speakers this is so annoying, I've googled it briefly and it looks very simple to fix on iOS but have found little for an Android solution, I've found a setting in audible app in auto but this seems to get over ridden. I'll be happy if I could choose the priority, or completely stop it from changing by it's self

    SwiftKey sometimes registers one tap on shift button as double tap.

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 07:15 AM PST

    Does anybody have this issue as well? I have a Mi 9T with a screen protector, using MIUI 12 (probably installed million times by now due to Rom hopping). I have the same issue on Pixel Experience as well.

    Grammar input with voice typing Android?

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 06:58 AM PST

    We used to be able to say "comma" and "period" and even "semi-colon", and get those punctuation marks.

    Now it insists on spelling them out as words.

    Quite difficult to search for info on this, since there's Google Voice and Google voice typing, which relates to Docs and, I dunno, Google typing by voice for Android?

    Anyway, I don't see how one can compose by voice when it won't take punctuation, although it used to.

    Why does my phone constantly send DNS requests to 3gppnetwork.org?

    Posted: 04 Dec 2020 07:57 PM PST

    My phone (Moto G7) running Android 10 (most recently updated 10/1/2020) makes a DNS request for two addresses in a cycle of once every 2-3 seconds for about 15 seconds, and then it takes 15 seconds off:

    epdg.epc.mnc260.mcc310.pub.3gppnetwork.org

    epdg.epc.mnc250.mcc312.pub.3gppnetwork.org

    I know this because of my pi-hole. Neither URL is blocked and both receive a response from the DNS server and resolve to 193.138.218.74.

    I haven't found a wealth of knowledge about this and have only found a couple people in forums who have had this same issue, and never saw an answer. The most I've gathered is that those URLs have something to do with making calls over WiFi, but disabling/re-enabling calls over WiFi hasn't made a difference.

    I've spent many hours trying to figure out which app or process is making the query to no avail. Apps that used to be able to tell you which app was using data no long work on Android 10+. There are some apps which act as a VPN man-in-the-middle to block internet access to an app or process, but the DNS request bypasses the VPN - I know this because I regularly use a VPN on my phone and when I'm connected to my home network, the only DNS requests shown on my pi-hole from my phone are the two above. I have force-stopped apps one at a time only to watch the same DNS request pop back up in my pi-hole.

    This is driving me nuts. I don't know which app is making the request, and I don't know why it makes it over and over. It's made a very noticeable decline in my battery life. I need this to stop.

    Camera picture quality.

    Posted: 04 Dec 2020 10:51 PM PST

    Hello, I recently got an LG velvet but even though it has a 48mp camera but the images always end up unclear.

    I was wondering if anyone on here has experienced the same thing, and if there are any easy fixes.

    Also if there are no easy fixes does anyone know if flashing a different version of Android could help?

    Viper4Android 2.7.2.1 missing tabs and settings

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 01:48 AM PST

    Hi I just installed Viper4Android again, and previously to install it has been a complete PAIN IN THE A**

    But now i see the devs say that i don't need to install that audio modification library BS

    Anyways, i installed it, now in the latest app version, as previously we had tabs, for headphones, phone, Bluetooth etc those tabs are gone, there is no tabs at the bottom and base settings, voice clarity setting(something like that)

    Like basically i only have settings in the app till the "Speaker Optimization" setting, after that there is nothing, no settings and no tabs on the bottom.

    I wish i could attach a screenshot with this post, but for some reason that option is greyed out.

    Can anyone help me?

    HELP. I can't seem to start Google Assistant.

    Posted: 05 Dec 2020 01:03 AM PST

    I am using Oneplus 3. It was fine for a couple years. But for the past few weeks I can't seem to use my Google Assistant. It keep closing the instance it start to listen. So, I factory resetted phone. Was fine for few hours. But now it happen again. Sometimes, message like "there's another app using microphone" (or something of that nature, i can't remember the exact phrase) appears after it force closes. Here's a screen record if it could help.
