    Android Questions: Change screen resolution without root? MHL cable to TV question.


    Change screen resolution without root? MHL cable to TV question.

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 08:43 AM PDT

    I have an MHL cable going from my S20 Ultra to a 1080p TV. My primary use is playing from my Plex server to the TV (no wifi for the TV, using my phones data or Plex sync).

    This works, but the resolution of the phone is greater than 1080p and I can't seem to find a way of changing it when using the MHL cable without rooting my phone.

    Any suggestions?

I don't want to update it... please help.

    Screen brightens when using keyboard

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 06:27 AM PDT

    For some reason whenever I use the keyboard (typing this, messages, etc) the entire screen brightens up like 5-10 shades. This issue is brand new and I have no clue what it could be. Any ideas?

    Thanks

    Charging issue with Galaxy S10e

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 08:40 AM PDT

    It just started today, with no software updates recently, but when I go to charge my phone, at low percentage, it gets close to saying "24 hours to 100%" (and does seem to actually charge that slow) until I restart it while on the charger and it goes back to normal fast charging time. If I remove the phone from the charger and then replace it, I then have to restart it again for it to charge correctly.

    Any advice on what to try to fix this issue?

    Returning Messenger to its default sound in android?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 06:27 AM PDT

    I accidentally changed the default of ALL apps system wide. Now, if I reset the sounds to default, they just all change to the notification tone I chose. I found some facebook messenger ding sounds on Zedge, but they're all highly distorted. How can I get back to the default sound?

    Samsung XCover Pro; WIFI only works on secure home network. HELP

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 08:20 AM PDT

    I am only able to access internet and internet dependent apps from my secure home network or mobile data. If I am signed into any other network (even my public network at home) I have no connection. I have no issues with my old phone and have tried all of the troubleshooting I can find online. I probably messed with something in settings but I can't figure out what. Please help.

    Samsung keeps installing india pandering knockoff versions of tiktok and gambling games every few months after a delete them and I can't figure out a way to turn this off?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 12:03 PM PDT

    I'm on an M51 on Airtel India.

    The apps are called Moj, Trell, and rummytime

    I feel this is really sleezy and preditory behaviour by samsung and I hope the guy who thought of this idea spills black coffee on his white shirt.

    Any clue how to turn this off? I've tried disabling the Samsung app store but seems like they enable it after every update. This mostly happens when I update but sometimes happens for no reason. I've never downloaded these apps before so I know it can't be my playstore doing this on its own.

    New Moto G Power

    I had already turned off phone starting sounds, so I really don't get why it was bleating at me in the middle of the night. Only Alarms are supposed to interrupt DND.

    I accidentally stuck my sim card pin in the wrong slot.

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 09:29 AM PDT

    For S21 Ultra:

    So, I put my sim card pin in the wrong slot next to the sim card reader and pressed very firmly (like you do with the sim card reader). I felt a distinct popping feeling and then the phone vibrated.

    I asked support chat and they said that there's nothing wrong with the phone and that it only vibrated to inform me that it was the wrong hole.

    But that popping feeling still has me suspicious. I've heard that it's supposed to be impossible to puncture the water resistant safeguard with the pin from jerryrigeverything.

    Is there any way to check if I did damage without taking apart the phone?

    Pixel 3a Auto Unlocking / Pressing Notification

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 09:27 AM PDT

    Pixel 3a - Android 11

    Keeps auto pressing notifications when I receive one, on the lock screen and opening them, how do I stop it? It doesn't happen on every notification, and is very random when it does it.

    It doesn't seem to matter if smart unlock is enabled or not, because if it requires the passcode then it opens up the pin entry bit you normally get by swiping up.

    Any ideas? I've tried disabling any apps that can access notifications, and removed any apps that needed accessibility too, not sure what else to try. (not keen on a factory reset)

    I see some others have also posted about the same issue but have no solutions: https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/jmrh5z/pixel_3a_w_android_11_auto_opening_notifications/ https://www.reddit.com/r/GooglePixel/comments/jq7joy/auto_opening_notification/

    Android Updates: Urge to install vs Restrain

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 09:25 AM PDT

    I have no idea how people can restrain themselves from installing an available update. I can understand why they do it though (bugs). But I couldn't let a day pass without manually checking for one and installing the next min I get the notification.

    What app can I use to save files from share?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2021 11:53 PM PDT

    I'm using iAwriter, and when I go to export to HTML, it forces me to share the file. I used to be able to share to my file manager, and it would save the file, but this doesn't happen anymore.

    Youtube App not working on my Galaxy A6+

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 08:26 AM PDT

    So about a week ago the youtube app on my phone started taking long times to load videos, about 5 minutes or more for a clip of less than a minute. But when I try to access them over mobile data instead of Wifi it works fine.

    A similar problem also occured in the Play Store: Apps will only download and update when I use mobile data.

    I already tried restarting my phone, deleted the caches of both apps, uninstalled the YT app, downloaded the latest update for YT but none of this has worked so far. All other devices in my house also work fine on Wifi, I can access youtube normally on my PC and even play videos when I use my phone's browser as opposed to the app. Any ideas on how to solve this issue?

    Google Messages/SMS app and click to dial?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 08:07 AM PDT

    Anyone know of a way to get the Google messages app to not ignore pause strings in a click to dial (Using commas as pause. For example 18001231234,,12345#)?

    We have a bot that will kick out an SMS with a specific callback number and string to get you to reach an agent in our call centers. This SMS works perfectly on iOS, but not on Android. We've tried different SMS apps, Google Messages directly, etc but no luck. If you click a URL in a meeting invite or email that is formatted correctly (tel:18001231234,,12345#) it'll work no problem, but the SMS totally ignores the commas and treats them as a delimiter making the telephone number and the after pause string two different items. I've tried formatting it every way possible in a SMS with no luck.

    Anyone run into this before? I can't believe in 2021 Google's own messages app is having this struggle.

    Numpad keyboard changes input type

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 03:20 AM PDT

    Hey

    since i updated yesterday my oneplus 9 i have a problem with number inputs. Keyboard pops up giving me the "num-pad" version of the keyboard. So far so good. Then once i have typed the first number it switches to alphanumeric, making it hard to enter for example a number greater nine. Using Gboard.

    Happens only since yesterday and interestingly, happens on my GFs TLC phone also, which also installed coincidentally an update yesterday.

    Anybody else with that problem?

    Problems with the OnePlus Nord 2

    Posted: 27 Jul 2021 02:44 AM PDT

    Hey! I just purchased the Nord 2. It's pretty awesome! However, the notifications in the status bar display the message "enter to view the message content" when the app, corresponding to the notification, has an app lock. If I remove the app lock, the problem doesn't persist. But, is there any way I can keep the app lock and get rid of the message, and view message content in the notification bar itself. Thank you.

    I need HELP!!!

    Posted: 26 Jul 2021 09:52 PM PDT

    I have a Motorola G stylus (2020), and recently when ever I unlocked my phone a random ad pops up for no reason.

    I have watched many videos that were not much helpful, so as my last resort I came here.

    Went to apps in settings could not find a app with no name and icon, also downloaded many adware, malware, etc app that were useless. Now I don't know what to do.

    How to access Bluetooth log?

    Posted: 26 Jul 2021 07:45 PM PDT

    Hey. I lost my AirPods and in order to remind myself of where they could be/what could possibly have happened, I would like to find out which was the last day I connected them to my S20. Is there any way of grabbing a log with that kind of information, or? Thanks beforehand.

    Clicked on phishing link

    Posted: 26 Jul 2021 03:49 PM PDT

    So i recieved an Email from USPS saying there is a shipment for me but that they have problems with my address. And that they want a 2.99$ fee for that. I was stupid enough to click on the link but I did not enter my Credit card details. I closed the website and ran complete system scans with multiple antivirus apps (avira, avg etc.) and none of them found anything.

    I was also stupid enough to open the link on my laptop aswell and after i clicked the link all browsers started with about:blank instead of the normal homewebsite i set up. The antivirus software on my laptop also found nothing but i factory reset it to be safe.

    My question is: Should i also factory reset my Samsung S10+ which currently has the newest version of android installed?

    Edit: Hey guys, thanks very much for your information and your help i feel a lot safer now thanks to you!
