I have the Samsung S23 connected to my Win 10 laptop computer via the USB cable. I want to copy some pictures from the laptop to use with "Contacts" on the cellphone. It was very simple to do with my old cell phone: it would connect and then I would just use windows file explorer to copy the pictures and files from/to the cell phone/computer in either direction. But I don't get file explorer opening here. There's a screen open at the top says "Search file names, types and dates"but it doesn't let me go to the windows folder with my pictures. It only allows "Gallery" which has only one picture which was taken with the laptop camera. I can't access any other folder. Selecting "This PC" I still don't get my folders on my C-disk, which is where I have my folder with pictures. It seems locked in to some predetermined strict selection of only a file named "Pictures".

On the cellphone USB Settings I have "USB Controlled By -> This Device" and "Use USB for -> Transferring files /Android Auto". I tried selecting "Transferring Images" but that brought up a screen on the computer "Import photos from Galaxy" - right now I'm trying to go the other way now, from computer to cellphone. And it says this gives permission to Microsoft Photos to access and import photos. Even another time when I'll want to go in that direction I don't want microsoft collecting my picturesD

There is a "One Drive" selection which seems to require a microsoft account, and a ONe Drive data collection policy; I don't know what those are.

Is there no way to get this to work the simple way it used to?

I downloaded Fossify keyboard and checked that instead. Next thing I know it somehow went back to that crap. I switched once more, and cleared cache as well as data for both. What can I do to prevent that from recurring?

I don't have "Flashlight" on Samsung 23. I though that was a basic function that would be on it. How do I add that to cellphone?

How do I set number of rings on incoming call on Samsung S23 before it rolls to voicemail? I found a couple of websites with "instructions" but none of them worked.

My friend has the Wells Fargo apk on his phone. It was installed from APKPure. It's supposed to send a code to his email address but that doesn't work. He doesn't know the password and when he tries to get it sent to email that doesn't work either. We've tried numerous times yesterday and now this morning. It is not in spam.

I want to have the APPS button on my home screen. I turned on Settings -> Home Screen -> Show Apps Screen Button On Home Screen but the button is not displayed. What else do I need to do to get the button?

This lousy old phone keeps shutting off while it's being used. It reboots immediately but then it does it again. It also discharges way too fast. I realize this is not apple forums and it's maybe 10 years old, but still...

Please DELETE me, let me go
For I don't love you anymore
To waste our lives would be a sin
DELETE me and let me love again

I have found a new CLUB, dear
And I will always want IT near
Her lips are warm while yours are cold
DELETE me, my darling, let me go

(Please DELETE me, let me go)
For I don't love you anymore
(To waste my life would be a sin)
So DELETE me and let me FREE again

Please DELETE me, can't you see
You'd be a fool to cling to me
To live a lie would bring us pain
So DELETE me and let me FLY again

Recently I saw a 128 gb sd card at Walgreens for about $55. I hadn't heard of rhe brand, Infinitive. It is somewhat tempting because it's same day and cash rather than online with card and waiting. Who knows about this brand?

I'm trying to help somebody get porn on his phone. When he goes to the website it does some age verification bs. He gives it his email address and it sends a code, but when the code is typed in it goes all wrong. For example, if it's 123456 it puts 651234 or something that way. I'm trying to figure out how to fix it. Is there maybe a safe search thing that could be shut off or lessened?

Somehow it got switched to a separate line for each website. I want to change it back to squares, especially as this shows more websites at the same time. I've been all through settings. The closest I can find is grid v. list, but that doesn't work.

I was wondering if anyone had any epic win on any Gaming consle?

Darksstalkers usually I can blaze through a lot of times....

About 5 or 6 years ago, Target had a Venus flytrap costume. My friend has been looking for it without success. There are some similar, but not that. We've tried ebay, etsy, a Halloween costume company, etc., all to no avail. It has to be adult or teen size and reasonably priced, probably no more than about $50.

I've seen some which were ridiculously cheap and others in the hundreds of dollars. I would like to have a reliable card for maybe less than a hundred. Amazon and walmart are no gos.

Honor has released their MagicOS 11, (Android 17), update for the Magic Fold V6 (Global) model. See, screenshot...

A while back I made what's called a bridge payment to Cricket. It's a partial payment that keeps service on until the rest can be paid. I gave them the rest of the amount plus $8 a day early. Then I got a message that if I didn't get them almost another $25 they would shut it off at midnight. I went over and showed them the messages thanking me for the money. They tried to tell me that I had already made 3 bridge payments (no, 1) and that 3 was the limit. The person I had paid even denied that I had paid her. I finally ended up shelling out the extra, but I have just about had it with these idiots. I may file a lawsuit. How they think they can get away with this crap is beyond me.

The single lower right button was nice. You press and can shut down, restart, etc. Starting yesterday some secret clandestine "upgrade" changed the phone so that one button brings up Gemini. I don't want it. The directions to disable Gemini is to force stop it. So in Settings ---> Apps, Gemini shows 0 k, and pressing force stop does not stop it. There is no uninstall option.

Now to turn off the phone one must artfully press the lower two side buttons simultaneously.

How may I revert this A54 to the easier old way of one button turn off and how to stop Gemini?

One would think that this is simple, but it is not. I've tried five apps and they have issues:

1. Won't connect to phone
2. Won't back up calendar
3. Might backup only "My Calendar"
4. MobileTrans demands installing "Connector" and the phone warns not to do it.

I read about exporting as an ICS file, but I prefer to have an integrated complete backup. It's unclear if Samsung's Smart Switch (which connects like a charm) will back up any of the Calendar.

Kindly help.

Besides inventing the world wide web, Tim Berners-Lee has come up with another great idea. Suppose if you visited a website and decided you didn't like its policies. You could just pack up your data and leave. They wouldn't have any of that. As greedy as they are, they would finally have an incenrive not to make people angry. I can't be the only one on here who knows anything about this.

It has been 25 years since this tragedy and my heart still aches. It aches for the loss of life and it aches for the loss of innocence.

I was on my way to work when I heard that one of the towers had been hit by a plane. By the time I arrived at my job site, I was getting that sick feeling deep in my gut that we were under attack. The construction workers near the house I was working on all gathered in the yard and we listened to the radio in disbelief as our world was forever changed. We all gathered up our tools and went home only to find that this was only the beginning.

Where were you when this travesty unfurled?

After 16 years of using Android phones. I bought a new iPhone 17. My Samsung Galaxy Note20 Ultra is starting to show signs of old age, the back fell off, the middle camera seems to have developed myopia, and the battery no longer holds as much charge as it used to. But it is the longest lasting phone I've ever had. Main reason for buying an iPhone, is that recent versions of Chinese Android can no longer install and use Google Play Services(Donald Trump to blame?), which is a show stopper for me.

Once more, it's not working. Usually I can fix it with a paint key but that hasn't worked. I guess the blades turn ok and there's evidently no foreign matter. I also reset the circuit breakers. I wish I had an Allen wrench or hex key.

1) I have it saved, but I have to put it in my offline notebook because I am like that.
2) my password notebook went away somehow with the entire folder, and checked everywhere even underneath another user
and it is not there, I have now about ninety percent back with the emails and other things.
3) is there a simple way how to see my windows password without downloading any third party app or program?

thank you.

I have windows ten and it logs me automatic, but it went to the lock screen and really shut down my pc like a spell ago, and I did not type up any windows comand.

My wife and are going to undergo this treatment; anyone familiar with it? It is certainly not inexpensive...
