    Android Questions: Phone restarted on its own over night so alarm never went off.


    Phone restarted on its own over night so alarm never went off.

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 08:48 AM PDT

    Stock alarm clock app on android 9 on a Cubot X19.

    I set my alarm, went to sleep, woke up two hours too late to a rebooted phone waiting for me to enter my security pattern and pin after which it gave me a 'missed alarm' notification.

    I already searched my settings for any sort of auto restart feature I might be able to switch off and found nothing of the sort

    edit: Okay, so, until I find a better solution I've turned off my security features for now, so the phone goes right to asking for my PIN after restarting. That way, the alarm still gets through. Of course, that's not optimal (feels kind of like a waste to have a fingerprint sensor and not use it) and if anyone has a better solution I'd really appreciate it, but for the moment it's okay.

    How can I check if I have any APK file downloads?

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 11:39 AM PDT

    I've been receiving some scam messages with links that download APK files onto your phone ( FluBot): I may have accidentally clicked one of the spam links but closed the app before the site fully loaded? Is there a way for me to check if any APK files were downloaded to my phone? I am on the S10E.

    Any help is appreciated !

    Help! Video Recovery tool recommendation OR way to upscale google photos uploads.

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 02:06 PM PDT

    In an attempt to free up space, I deleted photos and videos on my device that had been previously backed up to google photos. Unfortunately all of the video was uploaded to google photos in the "standard" quality which is actually very poor. The videos are of my daughter from the day she was born up to today (8 months old).

    Is anyone aware of any legitimate data recovery tools? I have been searching and most apps seem to be questionable in their integrity.

    OR, is there a known way to increase the quality of the videos that have been uploaded to google photos?

    Thank you!

    Can i remove work restrictions on my android 10 without them getting alerted?

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 12:57 AM PDT

    Hi i have a work Nokia 6.2 running android 10. I want to use an app that needs location to run while in the background. Currently i cant select it for that app and i think because it is restricted through the work admin (i also cant enter dev mode)

    Is it possible to remove their restrictions and if so how and will they know while i own the phone?

    Thank you

    Bought a Samsung Galaxy A12 - anyone have good case recommendations? (Articles seem like disguised adds to me)

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 12:06 PM PDT

    What I don't care about:

    -aesthetics

    What I do care about:

    -ergonomics. I want to be able to hold and write comfortably. Honestly, without a case this phone feels clumsy to me as it is quite large. I don't really play games on my phone, using whatsapp, firefox, and maps is my use case.

    -protection is a nice bonus, as long as it does not conflict with ergonomics

    Phone says apps are on SD, but are actually on internal

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 11:31 AM PDT

    My storage settings says my apps and games are on my SD card, but my internal storage is still full, and when I plug my phone into my PC I can see that the apps are on the internal storage in file explorer. I'm on a Galaxy A01 on Android 10

    How do I get a refund?

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 10:22 AM PDT

    I was playing a game and my screen went crazy. After it stopped it had made an 80$ purchase on the game i was playing. I already sent 2 refund requests to Google and 1 through my bank but google still refused to refund the purchase. The first request was within minutes of the bogus purchase. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Phone wont turn on

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 09:56 AM PDT

    The screen froze on my s7 yesterday then went black and won't turn back on, and the power + volume down + home button sequences are not working.

    A screen with "downloading... do not turn off target" comes on after about 30 mintues (no text in upper left corner though) when I press volume down + power + home buttons, it turns off, doesn't reboot though. The same "downloading..." screen comes back on again after 30 minutes and stays frozen like that until I try the reboot sequence and it goes to black again. Anyone know what else can be done? Would removing and placing back the battery help?

    An album called "jpush" keeps getting created in my Photos gallery. Any idea on what's possibly causing this and how to get rid of it?

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 03:51 AM PDT

    This "jpush" album just keeps recreating itself and I find it really annoying. I tried scanning my phone for malware as well but it says there is none.

    Any suggestions on how to get rid of this? Thanks in advance!

    3rd Party Text Apps Not Sending All SMS Messages

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 09:12 AM PDT

    G'morning all - been trying to fix this one since at least Thursday and getting really frustrated.

    If I use 3rd-party messaging apps (tested Textra, Chomp, & Google), I can send group/MMS messages, and sometimes send SMS, but a lot of times the SMS ones don't get sent; if I use the crappy built-in Samsung messaging, I seem to be able to send all SMS and MMS. I have a Galaxy S10, Android 11, Google Play update 5/1/2021.

    I have tried on a solid WiFi signal, solid LTE signal, to different phone numbers, different message lengths, I have installed/uninstalled various apps, and have restarted multiple times...and every time I try and use a 3rd-party, I still take a gamble if a text is getting sent or not. I have also been searching a number of articles but either I've missed something or it's just not working.

    Any thoughts/advice/suggestions?

    Helping viewing historical mobile connection data

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 09:12 AM PDT

    I have an issue that my carrier/network provider have asked me to monitor.

    My phone keeps dropping down to 3G, after a reset and checking all the phone settings.

    My question is, does anyone know of an app that will log historical data of when a phone connects to 3G/4G and how long for?

    For example, I'd love to be able to say to them "on 21st June it connected to 3G between 3-4am" as an example?

    Question: Work Profile and VPN

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 02:47 AM PDT

    I have a quick question, assuming that the work profile has to be connected to VPN all the time and its automatic/cant be disabled.

    1. Do personal profile web/app activity connections go through the work profile VPN?
    2. A side question, for those who uses Work Profile, do you leave it on 24/7? or turn it off after working hours normally?

    Thanks! :)

    PLEASE HELP Android only give "edgelighting" notifications not actual notifications

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 06:24 AM PDT

    I am at my wits end I have searched for several months and can not solve this. When my screen is turned off just sitting there edge lighting used to click on with the lights and you would see the notification of a text or whatever at the top. Now all it does is the lights click on and it says "edgelighting" like that is the notification I just received. Even when I go into notification history right after all it gives me is "Edge panels" 0 notifications.

    I would like to keep the lights lighting up around the edge and a notification coming through when I have my phone just sitting down. But I cant even disable them the options I have are brief or detailed and I dont want all the details of the message or notification.

    Currently I am using textra as a messaging app and it was working fine before the update.

    Please help, I would even downgrade android versions and go back to a previous version at this point.

    Hello all! Please could someone help me?

    I am thinking of buying a Yubikey 5 NFC security key. My question is, what is would happen if the key got broken?

    When setting up the sites with the key do you get given a list of back up codes that you need to store somewhere? Or would you need a second key? TIA.

    Universal dark mode color?

    Posted: 21 Jun 2021 04:51 AM PDT

    I love how system wide dark mode is a thing and it works pretty well. However there is one thing that bothers me quite a bit.

    Even though almost all apps I use have a dark mode, none of them seem to have a unified scheme. Some apps use a pitch black color while others use a dark grey/blue background. Some even give you the option, like Twitter for example.

    I was wondering if there is any way to make all apps have a the same color dark theme instead of their own color palette? Or maybe even make every app use a pitch black dark mode?

    P.S. I use a Huawei Mate 20 Pro on Emui11 (Android 10).
