    Android Questions: Using One UI on devices released with One UI Core? (SAMSUNG)


    Using One UI on devices released with One UI Core? (SAMSUNG)

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 05:38 AM PDT

    I recently saw Galaxy devices that were released with Android 10 One UI Core, have gotten One UI with Android 11. Example Galaxy A20s. And some aren't like that. Example Galaxy A21s. A21s still has One UI Core with Android 11. What is the reason for this?

    Why do some devices get One UI replacing One UI core version, and some do not?

    Recommend a gampad for Pixel

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 09:27 AM PDT

    I would like to buy a quality gamepad which connects to the sides of my phone (Pixel 3XL, but will probably upgrade to next Pixel) and makes it into a poor man's Switch. I would mostly be playing Game Pass streaming games. Any suggestions?

    How to prevent an app from being recognized by playstore?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 09:16 AM PDT

    I have an application which is an older version of an app, I don't want playstore to ask me to update the app, every time I open it. I also don't want playstore to show the app in the updates section of playstore.

    Is there any way to scramble the signature of the app without loosing much functionality?

    full disk encryption on moto g5s plus with lineageos for android 9

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 01:02 AM PDT

    I just began the full disk encryption feature on lineageos for android 9 on my bootloader unlocked moto g5s plus, and wanted to know if it is normal for the device to give the usual warning message before beginning to open into the android 9 bootloader, only for it to restart with the warning message.

    I believe that this is the normal process for the full disk encryption, but wanted to double check with people who have run the full disk encryption program on an unlocked moto g5s plus

    Currently using mobile hotspot to connect to my 3ds while the phone is connected to wifi, does it use data or is it wirelessly tethering the wifi?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 11:58 AM PDT

    My 3ds doesn't connect to my router directly, but connects to my mobile hotspot. If I turn off data usage on phone and turn on hotspot while connected to wifi, does it still use my data or does it just wirelessly tether and use my wifi?

    Which Tab should I buy?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 11:49 AM PDT

    I have no tablet atm. I am just about to enter college and i will only use it for notes, movies browsing etc. More like a laptop actually... Should I buy the S7+ or is it an overkill? Should i wait for the S8+ and, if so, when is it releasing? I want something futureproof since I will keep it for at least 4 years!

    Changing Battery percentage displayed

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 11:18 AM PDT

    So my phone has been doing the thing where the lower my battery goes, the faster it drains so 0-30 percent lasts as long as about 95-100% and I was wondering if there is any apps or ways I could try to change the percentage displayed from what the phone thinks it is already at. I do have a rooted device.

    how can i disable firefox custom tabs?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 10:22 AM PDT

    I really hate custom tabs, and I want to disable them. Newer versions of firefox don't have an option to disable them within the app. I've disabled custom tabs within every single app that has the option to (insta, twitter, gmail, etc), but some, such as the version of reddit that i use, don't offer that option. Is there a way to just disable them entirely, maybe using usb debugging or something, or will I have to switch to an older version of firefox that enables me to?

    I'm using the latest version firefox nightly, and my phone is a oneplus 8.

    thank you!

    LG V60 thinq OtterBox

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 10:08 AM PDT

    I know that OtterBox doesn't make a defender case for the V60 thinq, but does anyone know of anything similar to it. I have a Unicorn Beetle Pro from Supcase, but the glass back has already shattered on me after a month of use. I've tried different cases off Amazon and they are all cheap crap. Some won't even stay together unless the rubber is around it. I work in construction so I need something durable and easy to grip, any suggestions would be great.

    Do Not Disturb Help

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 09:22 AM PDT

    Hello,

    I typically use silent mode always on my phone because I don't like my phone vibrating all the time while at work for any random notification, email, discord chat etc. There are occasions when I do want my phone to vibrate, so it is easy enough to use the volume toggle on the side to bump it to vibrate from Silent mode.

    The issue I have is, I sometimes miss an important call and the wife is pissed off about it. I know there is the Do Not Disturb feature with priority modes that allow certain contacts through. That is the function I am trying to achieve but there is no way I can tell to put that into the volume rocker.

    From a functionality standpoint, it would be best for me to have Ringer -> Vibrate -> DND -> Silent. Is there anyway to achieve this?

    It just is a hassle to actively turn on and off DND all the time depending on if I am in a meeting or something. If it could be integrated into the volume rocker, I think it would solve the issue. Any ideas?

    Weird files

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 08:58 AM PDT

    There are 6 files in a folder named "fabric". Each of them start with "com.crashlytics" and end with ".properties". All of them are 682-97 bytes. Does anyone know what files these are for and should i delete them?

    Google Pay quit working on July 10 or so

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 08:55 AM PDT

    I used Pay lots of places without any issue until this problem. Now when I open it and put the phone near the POS terminal, nothing happens either with the phone or the POS terminal. I've toggled NFC, cleared the cache, uninstalled/reinstalled the Pay app. Still no love. Anyone else had this happen?

    Can I normally Factory Reset a phone after turning it back to it's original ROM, coming from a Custom ROM that I installed?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 08:43 AM PDT

    When you use Custom ROMs most of them have the "Factory Reset" function disabled, and everytime I want to "Factory Reset" the phone I have to reflash the ROM to start from zero. I am currently using a Xiaomi Mi A3 that originally came with Android One 10, but I flashed MIUI 12.5 into it, and that's the OS I currently have in the phone. The thing is, I want to sell it, and the buyer says that if I am able to Factory Reset the phone in front of him, and have it working all fine, he'll buy it (because he doubts a little due the fact that it's rooted). But I can't Factory Reset through the configurations because it's disabled. So, I thought maybe if I switch back to the original Android One (it'll have to be Android One 11, due to updates) will I be able to Factory Reset it from the configurations (not via pressing buttons in Recovery mode or such) again normally?

    How long does a phone last even if you replace it's battery?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 08:09 AM PDT

    Should I worry that my phone may be quickly obsoleted due to lack of 4k video decoder?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 07:26 AM PDT

    For some reason I am using a phone with no 4K decoding ability at all (Poco M3)

    I am not too looking forward to watch 4K videos on it because the quality improvement, while there, is simply not worth the bandwidth consumption

    But should I be worrying about that the phone may not be able to run some apps at all just because of this missing capability in the next 2 years?

    For example if some app decided to put a 4K splash screen video, my phone may outright crash

    Poor network signal / power issues

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 07:25 AM PDT

    So basically the numpties running the O2 network in my town sent out a message about 3 years ago saying they were going to improve the signal and as a result of this work the signal might be affected. I went from 4 bars to 0/1 and it never went back up. I renewed my contract with them back in November and as signal was ok for internet browsing, surprisingly , I thought it be ok to stay on their network, Now however recently the signal dropped so low I didn't even get 4g at all and the battery level just keeps on going down in rapid amounts of time which I understand is due tot he phone automatically and continuously searching for more signals or looking for better stations to connect to. Is there any way of reducing its ability to do this? I realise I may end up not getting phone calls but I lost 30% in the space of one day the other day and it was barely used. I already have background data usage settings turned off. Reduced the level of light and have various apps i power saving mode with dark themes. I also have it in stamina mode to better the battery by reducing its performance.

    Any ideas anyone? Thanks in advance.

    Can an app access your phone memory after being deleted?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 06:18 AM PDT

    I work part time for a Chinese learning company online. I downloaded their app yesterday and found out that a lot of similar companies use the apps to gain full access to users' phones. I deleted the app immediately after. However, I didn't clear the cache or do anything else. How do I know that my phone's security hasn't been compromised. Is there any way to check? I use a OnePlus 8 series for what it's worth. Any advice would be much appreciated!

    Is there any way to allow a single app to bypass a VPN?

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 06:16 AM PDT

    I use Wireguard for a VPN, but I have a smart light that requires local networking to connect to my phone. Instead of turning off my VPN every time I want to use my light, is it possible to allow this single app to bypass the VPN?

    Thanks!

    I can't use my tablet anymore

    Posted: 17 Jul 2021 05:44 AM PDT

    I'm not so sure this is the right subreddit to ask this but i have a Myria Giant (a romanian brand) tablet from 2018 with a broken digitizer but this isn't the point. I wanted to use it again as a secondary device so i bought a mouse for it because the lower part of the screen is completely unresponsive. I typed the pin password 0000 (i had a simple pin because i didn't plan on using it anymore back then) and it said it's not correct. I tried about 30 other possible passwords and none of them are working. After that i tried using droidkit but i need to pay, wondershare dr. fone but it needs usb debugging to be activated which isn't activated on my tablet. I also tried ADB but it also needs usb debugging. Finally i tried to give it a hard reset but here comes the worst part, i can't get it in recovery mode because every button comination i tried makes it boot as usual. I looked on the producer's site but there is no info about factory reset and neither in the instruction manual. Any ideas to what i could do?

    Forgot to say i don't remember the gmail adress with which i'm connected on it so i can't use android device manager to give it a factory reset
