    Help! Anyone know how to turn on an android phone without the power button?

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 01:43 AM PST

    So I have the Samsung Galaxy Note 8 (SM-N950F) running Android 9 and my power button fell off over a month ago and the phone died for the first time three days ago. It's fully charged now lol but I can't turn it on without the power button and nothing registers when I plug it into my PC, it just charges the phone.

    P.s. the bixby button fell out too so I only have the volume rocker button.

    Hi everyone! I have a Xiaomi Mi 9 and it started to reboot in the nights, I think with low battery level. I flashed some ROMs and the problem continues. Any ideas? Thanks

    Is there any way to enable the toggle for this setting? I've tried doing the method where you set your date back, turn off auto update etc. Any help appreciated 🙏

    Need help recovering data!

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 11:18 AM PST

    Hey guys,

    My android kept lagging and felt really slow so I decided to do a quick reset. I used this software called 'Wondershare Mobiletrans' to back up all my media on the phone, but i didn't realize that was a trial version and now I'm left with a bak file.

    Is there any way I can get back the photos or videos because I can't afford to pay for the premium ver. and there were a lot of memories in there that I can't afford to lose.

    Please any help is appreciated, thanks.

    Weird photos of people appearing when trying to recover photos.

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 11:18 AM PST

    Hey all,

    So something really creepy just happened while I was using diskdigger on my phone to look for old edits I made on an editing app, and interspersed throughout all of the Spotify album covers and random cached Spotify images, there were selfies and other nice pictures of people who I didn't recognize, nor do I ever remember them ever appearing in my gallery.

    Could these be caches left over from websites I visited like Facebook, Spotify etc? Or could they be from an app I had installed without me knowing?

    I genuinely didn't recognize a single person and I'm majorly creeped out.

    I'm on an Samsung S10E if that helps.

    Thanks!

    Is it possible to remove Country Profile from Play Store?

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 11:16 AM PST

    I added a payment method with someone's info to buy something, and since I'm in different country, Google changed my Country to the current one.

    I don't mind this since it won't restrict me from certain apps, etc., but now that I removed the payment method I can't remove the Country profile with the other person's billing info.

    Is it possible to remove the Country profile with the name info in it and keep only the country change?

    Need help turning off the voice reading my time aloud

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 11:05 AM PST

    Jesus, am I pissed.

    So something has happened to my phone, and i have no idea what triggered it, but from time to time, probably caused by this or that input command, I get a notification-like sound interrrupting my music, and then an annoying female text to speech voice reads my time aloud, followed by another notification sound.

    I have tried literally everything, but this shit just won't go away. I am this close to completely resetting my phone. Could you please help and explain what this is and how do I remove it for good?

    Oh, also, there's been a couple of other unexplained sounds following this issue, but those happened only once.

    Samsung Galaxy A51 wireless charging (via adapter) issue

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 10:59 AM PST

    Hi all,

    Sorry if this is a dumb question but I bought a wireless charging adapter for my GF's Samsung A51 as she's been looking at my phone (which has it) with envious eyes. The adapter looks like this, which effectively just plugs in to the USB port and then you can tuck the pad in the case.

    I cannot for the life of me get it to work. The phone charges through USB, the pad works with other devices as does the adapter but not the combination of phone, pad and adapter. When the adapter is on the pad the light comes on to say its providing power but the phone never starts to charge.

    I'm a bit lost as to what is going wrong.... Please help!

    Help- my bf thinks I'm lying!

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 10:49 AM PST

    My boyfriend texted me this morning upset that I changed the wallpaper and lock screen on his phone. Problem is that I didn't! I do have his phone password and get on it for random things from time to time but I didn't even touch his phone yesterday evening when I saw him. Both his wallpaper and lock screen were photos of me so why would I change them, lol. Anyway, any clue why his phone would change these on its own? He has a galaxy S10 (I think, it might be an s20?)

    Thanks!

    App to launch shortcuts

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 09:54 AM PST

    Is there an app that you can assign a shortcut to which it will launch when you open that particular app? I use Action Blocks to create shortcuts to Google Assistant Routines. I also use MacroDroid to automate a lot of stuff, and I'd like to auto launch Google Assistant Routines. But MacroDroid (and other automation apps) can only launch apps or a few select predefined shortcuts made by Android (but not shortcuts you've created yourself, like the Action Block shortcut to launch a routine).

    Or if such an app doesn't exist, is there another way to do what I want? I don't want to use auto input apps because those don't work with the screen off. And I know MacroDroid could technically "speak" the Google Assistant command to launch a routine, but I don't want that either.

    Phone won't play videos on browsers and other apps. (Except downloaded and captured by camera)

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 09:28 AM PST

    Okay here's the thing. I cleared the data on Google Mobile Services. After that, my phone can't play videos. Chrome, Reddit, Opera Mini. I can play videos on Chrome using the Youtube site, but other than that, it can't. Can someone help me with this? I'm really not good when it comes to this. Also, it says "Embedded video cannot be played". Thanks in advance!

    Pixel 4A - When phone unlocked, notifications shows without title/icon - why?

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 08:48 AM PST

    For some reason some notifications show up in a collapsed way when I am using the phone. I.e the title and icon in the notification is hidden. This is very annoying, because apps like Snapchat use the icon to indicate weather it's a chat, photo or video I received.

    Turn On Ringer and Notification Automatically

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 06:52 AM PST

    How can I turn on the ringer and notifications after my alarm goes off in the morning? Even better if I can silence my phone when it's plugged in and charging after 10pm.

    Is there a default way to accomplish this in Android?

    Found an app with the android logo called -5 in ym battery usage. Could it be malicious?

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 06:47 AM PST

    I was checking my battery usage since it's been draining faster recently thinking this might be because I've been using my phone as a WiFi hotspot for the last few weeks. But I found that the app that uses the most battery has a black android as its logo and is just called -5. When I click on open, it directs me to google photos for some reason.

    What is this app and can it possibly be malicious?

    My phone is a Nokia 7.2 running android 10.

    What does this icon on my notification bar means? It appeared yesterday and I don't know why, it's a phone with 4G on top

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 06:38 AM PST

    I've never used 4G I only use my home WiFi, I have mobile data turned off as always, I restarted the phone but it's still there, not sure if it's relevant but I have a Motorola Moto G6 Plus with Android 9, I've been using it for almost 2 years now and this is the first time I see that icon

    Fast Charging Pixel 5 with a wireless Charging Pad

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 06:26 AM PST

    Hello!

    My new Pixel 5 is due to arrive this weekend and I'm looking for a good wireless charger at the moment.

    Here is what I have in mind right now: I want to buy an Anker Powerwave Pad Alloy 15W Charger (Seems to have Extended Power Profile) and run it using a Quickcharge 3 - Brick that I have (20W) and a 1,5m USB-A to USB-C cable between brick and pad.

    Is this setup legit? Will I get my Pixel to charge at it's 12W?

    Thank you in Advance!

    Posted: 05 Jan 2021 05:37 AM PST

    Oof, I didn't know you can't post photos here

It comes straight into the keyboard . I don't know how I enabled it , but god this is annoying.. This has taken 10 minutes to write because of this.

    Whenever I'm connected to my wifi some apps and games don't seem to launch at all. But when I am not connected to wifi and using mobile data I can use them with no issues. How do I fix this?
