    Thinking about going from a Pixel 2XL to a Samsung Galaxy S20 FE, how would I go about transferring over photos and stuff?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 11:54 AM PDT

    Haven't gotten a new phone in a really long time, so I'm just curious how I would go about doing this. Thanks.

    Maybe my chrome app is bugged.

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 11:47 AM PDT

    Recently i downloaded this app called Route to track an order i made. After uninstalling it, i noticed that when i search something on chrome the icon of the app i uninstalled appears instead of the icon of the page i'm viewing. Ex: route app icon instead of the "G" Icon of google. Can someone tell me why does this happen?

    Will Blokada stop ads on YouTube you're steaming to a chromecast

    Posted: 09 Apr 2021 10:14 PM PDT

    I just installed blokada on my phone but actually don't mind preroll ads because it helps support my favourite content creators, I know it's a DNS thing but I don't know if it routes content you're steaming to devices.

    edit: I can now confirm the answer is no it doesn't.

    Photos disappearing from google photos

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 10:48 AM PDT

    hi.

    I created a folder on my phone called "meme", which obviously I use to store memes for silly messaging with friends. I usually save the pictures on my PC, edit them sometimes, then send the pictures to my gmail account and download them from there, then I go into the "photos" app and move them from "download" folder to the "Meme" folder.

    Then... without doing anything else... some of the pictures after a while disappear completely both from that folder and from my device. It's driving me mad.

    Is anyone able to help?

    Accidentally deleted music from my Android internal storage from the Google Music app

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 04:35 AM PDT

    I had woken up and was going through my music (sort of like an early morning ritual) when I was searching for a song and I thought I saw a duplicate. I went to delete the song, but it turned out I didn't read the fine print and I accidentally deleted an entire album and lost many music files that had been saved in my phone. I have been trying to find the trash folder as I researched online and saw that Android 11 should have one, but no luck. I have a Sony Xperia 5 II phone, and everything is on my internal storage since I haven't put in an SD card. Any help finding those files would be great. Even the list of songs deleted would be great, as I am sure I would probably have most of them in my computer but out of thousands, I have no way of knowing exactly...

    OTG system for calls

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 10:24 AM PDT

    So recently I bought this headset that apparently uses a usb type cable, so I use it with an otg. But whenever I receive any type of calls, my phone will redirect all sounds to the main speakers. I tried a few audio rerouting apps, like lesser audioswitch, but it didn't help. I need any help I can get to reroute the audiopath through the otg into the headphone.

    Technical specs: Model: Samsung Galaxy M21 Ram:6GB ROM:128GB OTG system: Supported Charger port type: type c Headphone type: USB Type A 2.0

    How to Turn Off the TAP TO SPEAK Prompt

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 10:05 AM PDT

    Dear god in heaven please help me, I'm going insane. I don't know what I did, but now every time I try to type something into an app, it goes right to the TAP TO SPEAK prompt and refuses to let me use the keyboard. I cannot for the life of me figure out what I inadvertently turned on or how to turn it off. I can't use the app store, I can access anything without speaking my passwords, this sucks...please please help.

    EDIT: Oh yeah, I have a Unihertz Jelly Pro, if that's important

    Slow Samsung Galaxy A70 Help

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 09:29 AM PDT

    I've been having problems with my A70 when it comes to loading pages from browsers (Chrome and Firefox) and social media apps (FB and Instagram). There are times when the page won't load and the way to fix it is to constantly use the optimise button from the device care widget. I have 6GB of memory yet it never gets that high and usually starts to slow down at about 3GB/3.5GB. I restart my phone every night. It is starting to get unbearable. I don't believe it's an internet issue as it happens when connected to home wifi and while using my data. I've factory reset my phone before to try and solve this issue and it didn't fix it. I've also restricted background activity on all my apps (not that I have many). Any ideas to solve this issue? Thank you

    Android USB-C Flash Drive

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 02:45 AM PDT

    Anyone know how to get a USB-C Flash Drive to work on Android? I'm trying to get one to work on my Galaxy 21 Ultra, when I plug it into my phone it doesn't recognize it and nothing happens. I formatted it to Fat32, and also enabled developer options and turned on usb debugging as well as changed default usb configs to transferring files, and still nothing. The phone and flash drive both support OTG.

    How to create homescreen shortcuts for on/off toggle settings?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 08:18 AM PDT

    I have to use USB tethering frequently and it's frustrating to go to the Settings app every time to toggle ON the option. I would like to create a home screen shortcut for that setting which allows me to toggle it just by clicking the shortcut icon.

    I tried looking at the Activites widget that Nova launcher provied and also looked into the Automate app to see if it offered functionality that'd allow this, but to no avail.

    How should I go about doing this? Is this currently not possible on Android?

    Is there a setting to stop Bluetooth from automatically switching off when Battery Saver enables?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 08:16 AM PDT

    Bluetooth shuts off even when it's actively connected and it's driving me crazy. I've checked deep in the settings for:

    1. Bluetooth

    2. Battery Saver

    3. Extreme Battery Saver's "essential apps" (note: it happens even outside of Extreme)

    ...and nothing, as far as I can tell. There seems to be no option for which basic functions turn off/stay on when it enters Battery Saver. But surely this must be a setting, right? Where is it?

    Found a lost phone, what in the world can I do with it?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 07:45 AM PDT

    Hello. My cousins found a phone, a Cubot Quest Lite. It was found near a place where the road is being reconstructed, so they asked around the construction crews about it (it is a somewhat rugged phone). On the phone was a message that mentioned the first name of the owner, so they asked if any [owner's name] lost their phone. Nothing came up. In the meantime, the owner remotely wiped the phone, possibly removing any chance of finding the original owner. So there's no chance of finding the owner (they might even be in another country, the phone was in a neighboring country's language in the setup menu), and the cousins gave the phone to me to see if I can do anything with it. Well I tried sideloading lineageos since I thought the bootloader was already unlocked because the brand seems pretty cheap, and the recovery mode suggested that it was all unlocked. Turns out it was not. So I went about unlocking it and of course, it did not work, the device is oem locked. So how in the world do I fix that? There is no way to enter the OS, since it was remotely wiped, it wants the last Google account that was used with it.

    Lock tablet timer app

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 07:32 AM PDT

    What I Want I'm looking for recommendations for an app that will power off and then lock the tablet with a pin or password or something, that can be set to a specific schedule.

    What I'm Trying to Achieve I'm wanting to block tablet usage between 8pm-6am on my kids device. Their tablet is otherwise not password protected, and I'd like to keep it that way, so the password/lock protection should be native within the app and only apply when the app locks the device.

    What I Have I have Amazon Kindle hd10, rooted.

    Just bought the Pixel 5 and why is no one talking about the uniform bezels more?

    Posted: 09 Apr 2021 10:40 PM PDT

    This is the most underrated aspect of the Pixel 5, the completely symmetrical display! I watched a bunch of reviews on the phone before I decided to pull the trigger and not many reviewers talked about this feature. I actually went into Verizon to confirm that it was symmetrical. I wonder why that is. I've been waiting for a device to have no chin or no notch and surprisingly google pulled it off!

    Android shortcut button to play/pause music

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 03:27 AM PDT

    Hi there, I have a phone (Android 9) which has a hardware button which I can set individually to do an action of my choice, such as open an app, turn on the flashlight etc. Basically the button can use every shortcut existing on the phone. (I mean the small buttons that are found near to where you can choose your widgets for the homescreen - I don't know for sure if they are called 'shortcuts') So I would like to set my button to play/pause the music player which is currently active - it can't be so difficult because the buttons on headphone cables do the same. But I can't find such an option. Does anyone know an application for creating such a shortcut? That would be amazing.

    Thank you kindly :)

    Galaxy Phone randomly shuts off when I play Playstation...?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 05:58 AM PDT

    My Galaxy A71 shuts off or restarts when I play my PS5. When it shuts off, I can't restart it at all. The last time it shut off completely, I tried all the typical restart button combos, tried plugging it in for a few minutes and tried the same button combos while connected to power, etc...nothing worked. Then a few days later it randomly turned back on when I plugged it in and pressed down + power. Last night, it shut down completely again, so I fear it'll be another few days before it works.

    Other info: I use a bluetooth headset with PS5 for chat (could that be related??), it's a work phone loaded with office and some "work apps", my PS5 is downstairs, but I don't think that has an effect because this has only occurred while I'm playing PS5. Otherwise, the phone works fine. Any help or ideas on how this is happening would be appreciated! I can't find any mention of such an issue online.

    Sold my phone and factory reset then posted it. Buyer now says they are getting this when switching phone on "Your phone was reset to factory settings. To use this phone, please enter your previous pin" - Will giving them my old pin give access to my phone info pre-reset?

    What to do with OnePlus 8 Pro with working but cracked screen?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 05:52 AM PDT

    I have a OnePlus 8 Pro with cracked screen that I don't use at all. If it was in good condition I would sell it. It works perfectly but the screen is cracked.

    Should I send it for a repair and then sell it on eBay or sell it with a broken screen? Or is it just not worth it and keep it as a spare phone?

    SD card problem

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 05:41 AM PDT

    I am using Xiaomi redmi7A with Android 9. I have formatted my 8gb SD card as my internal, but now it has replaced my internal 16gb with 8gb. I thought it would add to my internal storage. https://imgur.com/ajjsRGE

    https://imgur.com/QTIeFiu

    these two are the images for when I insert the memory card.

    And below two are when I remove my SD card.

    I just wanted to combine both internal and SD card. Now how do I make my SD card portable again. And just combine this with my internal.

    Thanks in advance.

    Is there a way to create a shortcut (e.g. swipe gesture, shake device, etc) that "taps"/"clicks" on a persistent notification?

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 05:15 AM PDT

    I often use Microsoft To-Do app and it has a persistent notification that you could tap all the way down in the notification centre, and when you tap it, it opens bubble window where you can quickly type in a reminder.

    I want to have access to that popup bubble window by some sort of gesture, shaking my device, etc. — instead of having to reach to the status bar (I have a huge Note 20 Ultra), drag it down, scroll all the way down to the persistent notification, swipe down on it to expand it, tap it. It's quite the tedious process especially when you're on the go and need to write something down quickly before you forget it.

    Restoring a .bak file.

    Posted: 10 Apr 2021 04:09 AM PDT

    I recently backed up my Samsung Note 10 using Wondershare MobileTrans before sending the phone into repair. Now that I want to restore the backup, MobileTrans won't let me without purchasing the whole product. Is there any other way I can restore the .bak file onto my phone?
