    Is this possible? I watched a tutorial on rooting but he said it only works on exynos. But then I find this article saying you can do it with snapdragon.

    Spotify doesn't pause playback when answering a Facebook Messenger call [Note 20 Ultra, Android 11]

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 10:35 AM PST

    It does pause properly when a regular phone call comes in, but will not pause itself when a Facebook Messenger call or video chat comes in. It will pause while the incoming FB call is ringing, but resumes music playback when I answer the call. I have to manually swap to Spotify and pause it. All apps and software are up to date. Anyone ran into this and found a fix?

    • Note 20 Ultra

    • Android 11 / OneUI 3.0 (happened before updating software as well)

    • Using Galaxy Buds Live, if that's relevant. Problem also persists when not using Buds.

    Hidden Calculator App?

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 09:00 AM PST

    So, I just saw some shit I just saw some shit that I can't explain.

    My bf has been very shady with his phone. We just got out of a fight about him acting strangely, and how his behavior is effecting me. Then, he opens his calculator app and accidentally leaves it open on the bed. I click the top right hand corner "Help" why would this be on a calculator?

    And it said something about deleting call logs. I immediately thought, what the fuck? Call logs? And there was another option for finishing setting up a Pixel phone? And he has a Moto G7?

    I had to stop and think. Why would Help or Support be on a calculator? And talking about call logs?

    I KNOW I just walked into a hidden app. Is it one of those fake calculator vault apps?

    How do you identify those? I think I just got lied to.

    Android 11 looks ugly and I hate it. Is there a way to revert the update or change how things look?

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 08:44 AM PST

    This most recent update that was done makes me want to throw my phone away. The way they changed the time on lock screen, the dial screen now, all of it looks too "modern" and I don't really like it.

    Is there a way to fix how it looks? I just can't stand it as it is. It just auto updated last night.

    My Android phone keeps ringing

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 08:35 AM PST

    I can shut it off but then after turning it on, after about 10 min it starts ringing and it won't stop. I put do not disturb on multiple times but it doesn't work and it rings. It doesn't show a number and I tried installing a virus cleaner. Any ideas what to do?

    Can't access backed up files on PC

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 08:16 AM PST

    Hello. I'm currently using Huawei Y9 Prime 2019 phone. Recently, my phone entered into an emergency backup mode. So, I had to back up my files to my PC before resetting the phone. But now I can't open the files on my PC that I've backed up. When I try to open the .mp4 files with KM player, it says "No combination of filters could be found to render the stream, error number: 80040218". Similarly, the Photo app of windows 10 cannot open any JPG file. When I tried to open the JPG file with paint, it says "This is not a valid bitmap file or the format is currently not supported". I've tried to repair the files by using Wondershare and Stellar app, but no luck till now.

    ***I can't use my phone at the moment as it's at the service center. The reset was unsuccessful and the phone went back to the emergency backup mode repeatedly.

    Is there any solution to this? The files were very important.

    Android 11's media bar changes suck / need help with "hide player when media session has ended" toggle

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 07:40 AM PST

    Not a fan of this update at all. Liked having all my paused media (Spotify, Shuttle, YouTube, etc.) stacked, visible and playable/seekable on the lock screen instead of only the last thing I was listening to (with only play/pause and ffwd/back). Any way to get around/get rid of this stupid update?

    More pressingly, I know some folks have said to disable the "hide player when media session has ended" toggle to get stuff to disappear from the media bar after it finishes playing but for some weird reason, that option literally doesn't exist on my phone (Galaxy S10e). Searched for it in settings and it just isn't there. Any ideas?

    Thanks y'all

    Data not working with weird notifcation.

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 07:05 AM PST

    I can't connect to any wifi network right now and my phone's data is not working. Even though I've got 4-5 bars on LTE. It says

    Android System

    Sign into Network

    Virgin Mobile (my carrier)

    If i tap on it it connects to barred.virignmobileusa.com. If i tap on the 3 dots and tap "use network as is" still nothing loads, if I wait 30 seconds it just says Error: errror - null. Keep in mind i basically have full bars on lte and still nothing loads.

    can i turn off swipe up for assistant?

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 07:01 AM PST

    there's already basic ui for swiping up, to unlock the phone and to see the app drawer, not to mention just scrolling through a page.

    but now half the time when I swipe up it opens the assistant instead?! so irritating! i can't find any setting to turn that off, I need it to stop!

    any advice? I'm on a pixel 3.

    I'm trying to gain access to ADB on my LG v20, (ran into a small problem) anyone with experience with this... assist me please :)

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 06:54 AM PST

    So my model is LG-H990ds. I got adb running on windows 10, enabled device debugging, connected file transfer mtp, granted access on phone (fingerprint something something).

    Now the problem:

    1. I launch powershell and type "adb shell" & get this:

    "elsa:/ $"

    1. I type "adb devices" & get this:

    /system/bin/sh: adb: not found 127|elsa:/ $

    < I think that I might be missing the correct usb drivers. Anyone know which usb drivers I should install for my phone and adb to work? Or am I doing something else wrong?

    Thanks a bunch for reading my post :)

    How do I uninstall google's Family link from a child who turned 13's phone?

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 12:45 AM PST

    I installed google family link on my nieces phone and she just turned 13. I wanna uninstall Family link its a really crappy app. I don't wanna give her my gmail password so I tried generating a parental control code which is supposed to be used to grant her access to take over her account without giving her my gmail password but she never gets any option on the menu when trying to remove the parental controls to type in the parental control code.

    I read online that google sends an email to the child with a link that they can click on to take over ownership of their own account but I can't find this email. Any tips would be appreciated.

    My earphone's play button messed up, sorta

    Posted: 27 Jan 2021 10:37 PM PST

    I was playing a game, dragon ball legends, while I was a little distracted. Some notification came up, but I kept playing and didn't do anything about it. I then wanted to go to the next song on my phone,so I pressed the play button twice on my earphones, and one beep played, then one right after, then a female voice says,"It's (whatever time it is)". Then my music plays again. I don't know what I did or what I can do to fix it. This only happens in that game, no other app does this. I use samsung music, and I have a Samsung Galaxy s8 I think. Holding down the button does the same thing. If i bring down the notifications, the play button works as expected. The volume buttons work as they should. If you have any ideas on how this could be fixed/changed/reversed I would appreciate it. If you need anymore information ask me.

    Broken screen and need to back up

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 05:58 AM PST

    Hey guys just needing to know if there's a way to back up my Oppo a91.My apprentice for some reason had my phone in his back pocket and sat on my phone, breaking the screen. No image I don't think it's taking input but basically I've brought another Oppo a91 and just wanting to know if there's a way to make a back up by connecting it to a computer or something and restore it on my new phone. I am trying to avoid having to get a screen replacement for it. But will be ordering a new screen tomorrow for it.

    Anyone know how to make Windows 10 recognize phones as a drive?

    Posted: 27 Jan 2021 01:30 PM PST

    When I plug my phone in to my computer it's recognized as a "Portable device", but I want to use it as a hard drive. Is there any way to do this?

    Edit: I wanted to use my phone as a bootable drive but I found an app that I'll try after I root my phone

    How do I view all my images at once?

    Posted: 28 Jan 2021 03:46 AM PST

    I was at a store getting photos printed. When I had my phone plugged into the computer I saw images I didn't think I still had on my phone. How do I see a list of images, like the photo computer shows, on my phone or possibly PC?

    Phone is a Samsung S8 if that's relevant.
