    android 11 : this app (ungoogled-chromium-android-extensions) can not longer load files (d3ward's floatly extension) from phone storage ? it worked on android 10 though ... any help ??

    Posted: 21 May 2021 06:47 AM PDT

    SOLVED : just needed to upload the floatly_v1.0.4.crx file to my webserver and then access it directly through the app ( ungoogled-chromium-android-extensions ) !!

    Original Post :

    I use this app (ungoogled-chromium-android-extensions) which can load files (web browser extensions actually, like d3ward's floatly extension) from the phone storage fine on android 10 ...

    ... but this no longer seems to work on android 11 ... it says it can't read the extension manifest ...

    ... any idea how to solve/workaround that issue ??

    thanks !

    (PS : extensions can load fine from the chrome web store so I thought this issue might be due to the fact I am on android 11 and they've changed the permission system to access the phone storage ...)

    Every recent Samsung phone my girlfriend as ever owned has the same issues.

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:33 AM PDT

    So my girlfriend has this nutty issue with Samsung phones. All of them.

    She has so far had - Galaxy A70 - Galaxy A71 - Galaxy A32

    I'm presently using the exact A71 and it works flawlessly for me.

    But on all of these phones,she would experience constant, daily issues within a month or two of getting Them.

    These issues are primarily: - Daily freezes - Severe Lag - Phone Restarting its self

    She primarily just has mainstream apps by trustworthy sources. There are a few random games off the app store but nothing she had in the past.

    Other than apps I'm at loss as to what could be causing this.

    Galaxy 8 not syncing with multiple apps - Help!

    Posted: 21 May 2021 09:08 AM PDT

    Howdy folks,Device is Samsung Galaxy S8. So I recently wiped my phone, do it every year or so to keep it sharp. Since then, I noticed that my google calendar stopped syncing. Let me define that, if I generate an event on my browser calendar it pushes to my phone, but not the opposite. If I generate an event on my phone, it will not sync to the cloud, just stay local on my device. If I hit refresh in app it does not push it either.Also, certain work email notifications are not clearing as they previously did on the prior OS aka clicking on a chat in browser that also will ping my phone, I touch the chat message and the app notification should wipe and it doesn't. This leads me to believe that it's not at the app level but phone level. I have tried in the settings--->accounts auto sync data and everything seems enabled. All the app settings say sync etc and have access to storage and notifications. All apps are current patch level. I have excellent wifi and cell service where I reside. I have cleared cache of all affected apps, and cleared data. Phone is patched to current OS update. I'm pretty lost for next steps. Help?

    I appreciate any and all assistance.

    Idk what I did. When previewing open apps, all of them have an X icon in the right hand corner, but Opera has a lock icon instead, so I cannot close it. It was not like this until recently so so I must have done something

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:48 AM PDT

    Is this an android thing or an opera thing?

    Is there a way to schedule periods of max power saving mode on Samsung S10?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:39 AM PDT

    I have a Galaxy S10 and would like it to automatically enter max power saving mode (for battery saving and reduced functionality) on a schedule. For example, max power saving mode from 10am-4pm on weekdays, and 8am-1pm on Saturdays. And at the ends of those periods it would auto switch back to normal mode.

    Possible?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:38 AM PDT

    Hey Guys, I have an Samsung A71 and a week ago I tried to connect my phone to my PC. Somehow it didn't worked. I downloaded Samsungs Smart Switch App and installed all drivers. Unfortunately it didn't worked. Now I tried to connect my flash drive to my phone over otg. This didn't worked either. Moreover it detected, that I connect a device but it didn't saw it as a flash drive. A notification says: The connected gets charged over USB. Is there a Setting I have to activate to use data transfer over cable? Or do I have to download a special App?

    My Phone: Samsung A715F My OTG: Samsung OTG

    Would appreciate some help. Sorry for my bad English.

    Windows shows wrong size?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 05:23 AM PDT

    I wanted to do a full phone backup. I connected my Huawei phone to a computer. Windows showed that the 9 GB of internal storage is taken, however when I selected all folders and checked their combined size it said 33 MB. I turned on "show hidden files" setting but there were no such files. TreeSize shows that the folder occupies only 33 MB. So does Windows just evaluates folder size badly or what?

    Looking for an app that automatically Google's incoming phone numbers that aren't on my contacts list?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 11:08 AM PDT

    When i get a call from an unknown number, i always google it first to see who's calling. Was wondering if there was an app that does this automatically once an unknown call comes in. Thanks.

    Can't Enable Accessibility Service for Android Galaxy A Ver 10

    Posted: 21 May 2021 09:31 AM PDT

    I think I'm losing my mind.

    I'm trying to install EVA Facial Mouse Pro. I need to "Enable Accessibility Service". I go to Settings/Interaction and Dexterity and turn on Interaction Control (and Assistant Menu). However, when I go back to the installation, it says I haven't enable Accessibility Service. I've wandered through menus and searched online, now I'm asking Reddit. Any suggestions are appreciated.

    Prompt for Browser

    Posted: 21 May 2021 09:23 AM PDT

    Good morning. I updated my phone to the 12 beta and now it will not prompt for which browser I want to use when I click links. I can't find settings to get Chrome to piss off. It will only allow me to get the prompt if I disable Chrome completely. I don't see an option for clearing defaults in Chrome's settings. The browser setting won't let me not pick one. I tried installing another browser, setting it as default and then reviving it but Chrome swooped in and crawled up the ass of the default settings automatically. Is there a setting I'm missing?

    My earphones are broken, and keep opening google assistant, pausing songs, and skipping them. How do I stop my phone recieving signals from said earphones? Is there a setting I can change?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 09:06 AM PDT

    The earphones work with 3.5mm jacks, so no issues with Bluetooth. Android version 9 (I think). I assume there is a setting for this, but have yet to find it, which is why I'm posting here

    What will happen if I use a larger then recommended Micro SD?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 09:04 AM PDT

    So I just bought an S10e off of ebay not realizing that the more common model has a 128GB limit on the SD slot. My old phone has a 256GB SD in it. Is it worth trying or is there a possibility of screwing something up with my new phone?

    Thanks for any advice.

    How to revert a system update? (Android 11 to Android 10)

    Posted: 21 May 2021 08:46 AM PDT

    So, I installed an update and my phone upgraded changed to Android 11. Basically, the UI is now buggy and facing app crashes. It's a vivo phone so they only allow you to downgrade by going to their service center.

    I have an old firmware update file which I believe I can open on my phone to install it manually. However, I am not sure if firmware updates work to downgrade android version?

    Or, I was thinking to factory reset my phone. So I backed up 'app data, Wifi passwords, and other settings' using Google. Also backed up photos and videos using google. Anything else that I need to backup to restore my device after reset?

    How to allow Libby(my library audiobook app) to override any audio focus requests?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 08:46 AM PDT

    I'll turn on my audiobook from the app. I open a phone game(Ever merge) and when an ad pops up my book audio turns off and the app's ad volume turns on. I want to turn off audio focus requests for game apps so this doesn't happen. Unfortunately, this isn't built into Libby like it is built into other apps. The app is extremely limited in what settings you can change. I have a galaxy s8.

    How do I force android 11 to use my router/pi-hole for DNS and not forget?

    Posted: 21 May 2021 07:46 AM PDT

    When connected to my home WiFi, I can set Private DNS to Automatic or Off and DNS queries will go through my router/pi-hole as intended for a while, but eventaully Android changes its mind and stops using my DNS. Presumably it falls back to Google's DNS. I know this because I start seeing ads on my device and I stop seeing queries from my phone in pi-hole's logs.

    I can't enter the local IP address of my router in Private DNS Host Name field. I don't know how to refer to my Pi by anything other than its local IP. I have mobile data turned off. I'm having this problem on a Pixel 3a.

    Apps reloading every time I switch between them

    Posted: 21 May 2021 07:21 AM PDT

    When I switch between apps such as Readera, Discord and Chrome, they re-load the whole thing, which takes 2-3 seconds and can be annoying when I have to switch very often.

    Is there a way to avoid this?

    I have a Redmi note 9 with 4 GB of RAM. I assume the problem is that Android is somehow freeing RAM every time I switch app. But in whatever Android doesn't use of 4 GB there should be enough space to hold a few pages of an ebook and a website. I wonder if there is some kind of configuration one can do in Android to avoid this problem.

    Won't boot any rom i flash

    Posted: 21 May 2021 07:12 AM PDT

    My phone (Pocophone F1) won't boot any rom I flash. I don't know what I did wrong but the last time it worked was when I flashed an android 11 rom (crdroid 7.2) around January. It bootlooped back then for some reason and when I tried to flash a newer rom since there was one it didn't work but somehow worked when I flashed the same rom before it bootlooped which was the crdroid one. Is this because I flashed an android 11 rom from android 10? if so how can I solve this?

    Vibration settings issue

    Posted: 21 May 2021 07:00 AM PDT

    I have a Galaxy S9 that has been driving me up the wall lately. I generally prefer keeping my phone on vibrate mode but for the past several months I've had to keep it on silent mode because it started vibrating super loudly every time I turn the screen on.

    So my question is, is there a way to turn off the vibration JUST for that 'screen on' but KEEP the vibration for other notifications.

    I've looked through the settings a bit and have found where I can change the vibration intensity and the vibration pattern but the phone seems to lump in the 'screen on' vibration with all the other notifications.

    Am I losing any privacy benefits from using a custom rom (CalyxOS) to run games in a work profile using Shelter?

    Posted: 20 May 2021 02:08 PM PDT

    By this I mean is the work profile completely separate from the rest of the system? What sort of privacy benefits am I losing by running closed sourced apps from the aurora store that collect my data inside of a work profile? What exactly happens when I disable a work profile? Can apps inside the work profile view or access anything out of the profile while enabled?

    Share SD card storage among multiple users

    Posted: 21 May 2021 06:10 AM PDT

    I inserted an SD card in my Samsung Tab S6 Lite running Android and it worked fine. However my tablet is shared among multiple users and each one had their own account, but the SD only works with the account that was active at the moment I inserted it. Is there any way I can share this storage among all users?

    Phone won't scroll down on first try. Very annoying

    Posted: 21 May 2021 01:07 AM PDT

    So on Chrome, Reddit, app draw, if I swipe up to scroll down it doesn't respond, if I try again it may work, but more often than not I have to scroll up a little bit, and only then I can scroll down.

    Phone is a Xiaomi mi note 10 lite running miui 12.1.6 and Android it version 11.

    Maybe it is something to do with the notification shade? Idk very annoying as I doesn't change the functionality one bit but it just makes ever action half a second longer.

    Any help will be greatly appreciated!

    Google voice typing random capitalization

    Posted: 21 May 2021 04:39 AM PDT

    Where is the proper place to complain that the AI constantly inserts capitals on every word that happens ever, anywhere, to have been a product or movie or book? This has been going on for years; how can it finally and forever be fixed? (currently on Gaxaxy S10+, but this happens all over the place)
