Well, my Michigan Wolverines beat Ohio State!!!

I saw a strange error that saids "Disc already fll" I got frustrated with the cloud notifications, decended it with a "Sorry cannot access pin please search online for an app.." I did manage to sneak out via holding shift with the power icon on it, went through troubleshooting...

So my windows ten is an empty shell again.

When a user puts a micro SD Card into an Android Smart Phone to give additional storage ... questions:

1. Does the SD Card only get used when the internal storage gets full?
2. Does the SD Card have a unique identifier (much like the C: and D: and E: drives of windows)? Or does it simply make the internal storage look bigger with the same identifier as the internal storage? In other words, if say the internal is 128 GB and SD Card of 512 GB is added, would that internal storage look like one span of 640 GB?
3. If the SD Card has a unique identifier, can the user drag and drop files/directories to and from internal storage?
4. Does the user have to tell Android that the SD Card is there after putting it in the slot? or will Android know it's there and act accordingly?

I need to see the messages I sent. Cannot find a button.
Google for help. All the answers say click on the reply to see the conversation.
But there is has not been a reply.
How do I see what I sent, and when?
Thanks.
(Again assuming i must be super stupid because surely there is a simple way to do this!)

Happy Thanksgiving, everybody, and I kinda hate to wreck it with another silly question, but here goes...I finally got the crimebook to do something moderately useful. I found out how to open crosh and get a command shell. When I typed adb devices it did not show the Stylus plugged into it. I went to that Nathan Chance article and followed the curl -s instructions. Apparently it did what it was supposed to do, although I noticed that it did not mention local, just bin. Maybe that's the problem? Then I typed source -/.bashrc as recommended, only to get invalid option. How do I make this thing recognize the Stylus and get it out of fastboot?

Samsung have begun rolling out their November update for the Galaxy Fold5.

So I'm really sick and tired of iPhone users sending me high-resolution videos via text message and not understanding those are going to come through looking like pixelated dog waste on my Android phone.

People keep claiming if I enable RCS, I will be able to receive full-resolution videos via text.

OK, first challenge: I can't enable that in Samsung Messenger, because my carrier, T-Mobile, only supports RCS for Google Messenger.

So I switched my default texting app to Google Messenger and then opened the settings. Lo and behold, RCS is already enabled by default.

But I just had two different friends with iPhones text me some videos, and they still look like pixelated dog waste!

Am I doing something wrong? Is there some other setting I need to deal with?

Or is it simply a false claim that RCS allows Android phones to receive full-resolution videos?

This is on a Samsung Galaxy S23 FE, model SM-S711U1, running Android 14.

Thank you, as always, for your help!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Just curious what everyone's plans are? If you're traveling by air I wish you good luck, after watching the Today Show, it sounds like a complete dumpster fire.

I'll be heading to pickup my tax deduction ( as @The_Chief would say ) from college on Monday and return her on Sunday.

On Thanksgiving we'll have my dad over with the sister and her crew coming from Nash-Vegas.

Looking forward to having the daughter home. She hasn't been home since July 23rd as she plays college soccer and can't come home in the fall semester because of the commit it involves.

Trying to install Android auto in my Mazda CX 5 (2019) was only a partial succes. Starting the procedure I did not see any Android Auto sign (blue arrow) on the screen of the car. By touching the text Android Auto on the car screen the App Launcher appeared on the car screen. The app launcher was visible but touching the diffent apps shown there did not result in any action. On my phone I see two messages: one that says “Android Auto is connected with Mazda” and “Android Auto should be updated”

Specs of my phone: Android 14, Processor Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Version Android Auto: 13.1.644253

Anybody an idea what I missed here or a solution?
Thanks, Peter

On my moto app, it keeps on crashing..
Should I FDR it?

Greetings, I'm using Android15 on a Pixel 6 smartphone with Google Messages app. How do I enable sms text messaging notifications for Google Messages app, please?

The Settings->Notifications has "Google Play Services" and "Messages" enabled, but the lack of notifications is causing me some trouble.

Thank you.

I have the file ready to go, but mail.com is not listed as an option. Looking online shows how with email generally, not that specifically. I think I have sent them a message about that and maybe they'll reply.

Samsung have begun rolling out the November 2024 Google security update for the Fold4 & Flip4... ahead of the Fold6 & Flip6 and Fold5 & Flip5 series.

I was wondering how to set it up when I put in another device such as my old moto edge plus?

It's a Moto G 5 g, I think from Cricket. It claims that wifi calling is available, but then it says try again later. The slider to on slides right back. What am I missing?

This is absolutely awesome. I've seen actual people that do this but an Al grandma is great.

Specs: Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 5G (model: 2312DRAABG) OS: HyperOS 1.0.12.0.UNQMIXM
I replaced the default gallery with 'Fossify Gallery app' (current version 1.2.1)
I set the default gallery to 'Fossify Gallery' (Settings/Apps/Manage apps/(3 dots)/Other settings/Default apps/)
When I take a photo with the camera app and click on the thumbnail, I would expect it to open the photo in the gallery that is set as the default, but it does not! It tries to open the 'native' gallery app - the one that came with the phone pre-installed?! (It can not open it as I stripped the native app of all it's permissions)
I tried other Gallery apps and the result is the same, so the issue is not with 'Fossify Gallery'
Strangely I can open the Camera app from within the 'Fossify Gallery'??! but not the other way around!?
I haven't tried to install other 'Camera apps' as the native one takes decent photos and I'm not sure that other camera apps would be able to utilize all the 'Hardware'
Looks like the native gallery is 'hard coded' in the camera app? Any suggestions

It looks like it. Good thing too, that thing they tried was a mess! The size and position was always changing, and you sometimes couldn't even see it because it camouflaged itself when there were similar colors on the main screen behind it!
