    Somehow forward a call to my iPad connected to Bluetooth

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 11:35 AM PDT

    I have an Android phone, and I also have an iPad. The iPad is connected to my car via Bluetooth, as I prefer a larger screen for navigation, Spotify, and so on.

    However, when I receive a call on my phone, I cannot answer it, because my car is connected to the iPad.

    Is there a way to forward a call? Not as in "call forwarding" (which would require a sim card with a phone number on my iPad), but rather via an app or similar.

    System Storage taking 130gbs after trying to swap sd cards?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 12:45 PM PDT

    Phone: Razer Phone 2 OS: Android 9.1112

    Been having issues with my Razer Phone 2 running out of space on the internal memory, 64gig model. I had put in a 256 gig sd card that I had pulled out of my camera a while ago, but whenever I tried moving apps to it like discord or messenger, they became so slow as to be unusable.

    So I thought maybe the issue was the read/write speeds, so I got a faster one (I think it was 100/90 mbs )of the same size, put in, formatted it, and now it says 130 gigs of it are taken up by system?

    How can I bring the Chrome navigation bar at the bottom?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 11:50 AM PDT

    Few days back I noticed that my chrome navigation bar is at the bottom of my screen. I was quite surprised but I really enjoyed this thing as everything was in my reach. Today I noticed that it is no longer at the bottom, it at the top as usual. I google about this and I came to know that I need to to turn on "chrome duet" feature under "chrome flags". But it is not working.

    how can I bring back the navigation bar to the bottom?

    Does this music player app exist?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 11:39 AM PDT

    I'm looking for a music player that will work on Android auto. Download songs from Google drive or OneDrive. Have a forward and reverse 10 second button and resume from where I left off when I get in and out of the vehicle.

    Music Sync does all the above except resume. It starts at the beginning every time I hook it back up to the vehicle.

    Samsung Galaxy Fold2 - Stop the slide show when charging

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 11:23 AM PDT

    I have a Samsung Galaxy Fold2 and it displays a slide show when charging. I want to stop this!

    Done many searches and cannot figure out how to stop it. If you don't have a Fold2 and cannot verify that your fix works, it may not help to throw guesses out there since I've already tried many miscellaneous things. I guess the Fold2 phones are set up a little differently.

    How to change the name that pops up when you tap on a photo you sent in Android messages

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 10:17 AM PDT

    So basically I've changed my name and changed it everywhere I can in my phone. But when I tap on a picture I've sent in messages app it still shows my old name. This happens even when I send a new picture.

    I have a Nokia 6.1 with telus. I've changed my name for my Google account, changed my contact name for my phone, changed my emergency contact name, changed the name for my phone's account. But none of this changes it in messages.

    I'm at my wits end and could use some help...

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 07:48 AM PDT

    I have a Galaxy S10 lite and the speaker and mic have some foreign substance in them that I can't identify.

    The mic seems like it has an actual solid piece blocking its passageway and the audio just seems to have some strange pastey liquid. I've tried emptying the liquid and removing the solid, but it hasn't worked at all.

    What would be the appropriate thing to do to fix this? Should I remove the phone casing and try to remove it? Or should I take it to someone who knows what the fuck they are doing? I would prefer to take care of it if possible, but at this point I just want it to be fixed...

    Notifications/Ringtone help

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 02:15 AM PDT

    Realme7 Android 10

    Can you help me setup my phone so;

    App notifications are silent. App sounds are silent. Incoming calls and vibration on loud.

    I have tried a couple of things like putting the phone on ring mode, then changing the ringtone for notifications to 'None'. This solves half the problem, but apps still play sound which is what I'm trying to eliminate.

    Simplified question = Need silent notifications and other app sounds. But need loud and vibrate on incoming calls.

    Can I lock an Android phone to one sim card?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 02:09 AM PDT

    As the title suggests, can I make it so that my phone is locked to my sim card only so that for example, the phone would refuse access if a different sim or no sim is inserted to the device?

    It's running Android 10 if that matters

    P.S. I'm aware of the Lock SIM feature, that only adds a passcode TO the sim card so that if my sim card is used in another device, it will ask for a PIN, that's not what I'm after.

    New tab in chrome goes to address/search bar vs home tab, how can I fix this?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 04:35 AM PDT

    A few days ago I noticed that when I open a new tab in chrome on my pixel 2XL it goes straight to the address/search bar vs the home tab. My wife has the same phone and same firmware and it is still operating normally.

    Is there a way to fix this?

    Can't install app (picsart)?

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 03:52 AM PDT

    I had the app picsart and i used it frequently and now all of a sudden i cant find it anywhere on my phone. It somehow uninstalled on its own. Now im trying to redownload it from the appstore but i keep getting the error "app not installed, try again later". I tried getting an apk and see if that would work but that also gave an error "App not installed". Im not sure what caused it but i've tried

    > Deleting cache and app date of both, the playstore and play services

    >Rebooted

    >Changed accounts in playstore

    >removed account in settings and then re-added it

    >Dont have private dns settings so that isnt the issue either

    Also the issue is only with picsart so far i can download and update other apps they are working fine. I've tried looking for a default installation location option in phone and the playstore to see if that changing it will fix it but i couldnt find one. The phone's Lg-g6 btw

    EDIT: So apparently the phone is regarding the app as prob installed but its not showing anywhere including 3rd party app managers

    Disable vertical swiping to close apps

    Posted: 09 Jul 2021 03:14 AM PDT

    I accidentally updated my phone from Android 8.1 (clean, ASUS) to 9, I couldn't stop downloading it despite automatic updates turned off everywhere (why? this is MY phone!) and now I have many issues I wouldn't have just keeping the old version, like broken minimal brightness (it's too bright), Settings being reached with more effort, uncomfortable vertical swiping to close apps instead of horizontal. But now I want to talk about the last one. Is there an option to change it somewhere? Because it infuriates me so much that I want to install Android 8.1 again. I'd do it already if there was an option to return to previous system like on Windows, but apparently someone thought that the user has to suffer.

    How to restore local search? Google App v12 seems to only search the web

    Posted: 08 Jul 2021 10:10 PM PDT

    My Google App keeps auto updating to version 12, and now it only searches the web. I can't find how to search my local phone any more.

    Remember you could swipe down on the home screen, and Google search bar would show that'd search thru Keep notes, Drive, SMS messages, and then if nothing was there you could search the web? Now the only thing it does is search the web!

    How do I restore local search? I tried installing back to factory version of the app, which works for a day. Then it auto updates again. I've disabled auto update, and it still updates anyway.

    Surely there must be an Android way to still search thru your phone for files, messages, emails, etc in an Apple Spotlight or In App type of way? I've also tried Sesame app, but it doesn't search things as well as the old swipe-down search.

    I'm on LG V40 thinQ, Android v9

    Is it encrypted like iPhones?

    Posted: 08 Jul 2021 06:18 PM PDT

    Hi fellow redditors, I am a little confused and maybe you can help me? iPhones are automatically encrypted without any intervention by the user. I have a recent Samsung Galaxy:

    • Is the data (all of it) similarly protected with encryption using keys related with the user password and/or biometrics?
    • If it is...what's the point of Samsung's "Secure folder"?

    From Samsung's website:

    Secure Folder creates a private, encrypted space on your Samsung Galaxy smartphone by leveraging the defense-grade Samsung Knox security platform

    ( LG Stylo 6) Am I able to disable the vibrating and (when low) brightness dimming when the phone unplugged?

    Posted: 08 Jul 2021 11:43 PM PDT

    My phone has a broken charging port and i was wondering if I could disable the above effects, primarily because it often fritzes and the connection just freaks out so my phone is basically vibrating repeatedly, and when its below 5 it keeps dimming. I would be fine if i didnt get these alerts when it was disconnected.
