Is there a way to root my phone without using some dodgy stuff like Kingoroot? That screwed up my last phone. I also need the rooting to leave everything already installed as it is and working. Is this possible?

What's the reasoning behind preventing users installing to the SD card? On a Windows PC, if C: is full, I can install to D:. Since C: on a phone cannot be upgraded as it's soldered on, we need to install to D:.

I have a Nokia C01 Plus that wont charge when connected either to the Nokia charger that came with the phone or to my PC via USB.
I have tried all the troubleshooting steps I saw online including a factory reset (which somehow caused me to loose everything except calls and data despite the backup settings in the phone telling me that everything was backed up before I did the reset), plugging in USB with the phone powered off (which caused Windows to say "new device found USB gadget" before the phone went into a loop of displaying the Android Go logo then nothing then the Android Go logo and so on) and rebooting the phone many many times.

The fact that Windows at least saw a device over USB suggests the USB charging port itself isn't physically damaged (and I can't see any dirt or debris in there).
Any suggestions for what I should do? Anything else I can try? Do I need to take it to a repair shop? Buy another phone?

Be CAREFUL. If you do not know what you're doing in developer options, DON'T. I have bricked my phone and need HELP.
All debugging options are on. I would like to get back into my phone preserving any and ALL personal data. Not everything is backed up. Thank you!!

hey guys,
so i just watched what i think is the best animated series that i have ever seen. it is on Netflix and it is called "the Blue Eye Samurai".

the story is truly amazing. it is well written and the animation is the best i have ever seen.


it is a historical piece set in the 1600's. and though this is animated, this is in no way intended for kids. there is a ton of violence, blood, and sex. this is meant for adults.

i highly suggest you watch, if you have not already.

anybody seen it? what is your thoughts, if so.

Hi, my Pocophone F1 has a weird problem. The flashlight icon in the app drawer is greyed out like this:

I cannot access flashlight from camera app too, when I try to take photo with flash, the screen immediately changed to white color, then cream color with sun icon. When I take photo using the back camera, the result is normal, but after i got to gallery, the photo become mirrored. You can see here, the "LG" preview in bottom left looks normal.

But after opening it, it looks like this:


Sometimes opening portrait mode also result in "Camera error, Can't connect to camera".




I also attached a video here when i try to take photo with the flashlight. Thank you!

I want to install a third party screen lock app in my smartphone. I want when I press the power button and when the screen turns on then it asks for pattern or pin. I know this feature is already available by default but it's not that much good so I want a third party app. Please give me the link and it doesn't matter whether it's a free app or paid.

I've been accustomed to tagging my photos in Windows using the property details feature. This allows me to organize my gallery efficiently. However, I've encountered a recent issue. After transferring the tagged photo to my Samsung Galaxy A6+, the trick no longer seems to work. I'm puzzled as to why this has happened. Has anyone else experienced a similar problem or have any insights into what might be causing this issue?

i have the a51 and it stopped connecting to the pc thru the usb connector. i tried 4 cables and 4 pc and it will not connect. so i got a new usb board for the sm-s515dl phone. anyway it is still doing this so it must be the motherboard. i did the samsung drivers 3 times and no change i did win10 updated and drivers and no change, so the phone is all but dead. it charges so for not it is usable and the photos i can get from google but not he way i prefer to get them. anyway what may be a good or better phone i can ebay? i do not want to break the bank but at least have 128gb storage and similar ratings as the a51 or maybe even better. i can do a vs to check them out. thanks

I'm not an early-adopter type and I'm not the target audience for what may be the "next generation" of personal technology...but it does make me wonder about where this is all going.

And yes, I realize it's not Android...yet.

Please help. I own a cpCoolpad3705as Android phone for 4 years now through Boost mobile. Recently my phone has for a better way turned into a zombie phone. Problems include screen freeze, random calls to contacts (unsolicited), extreme typing issues, notification screen drop down while typing, and probably a dozen more. Did factory reset. Phone worked fine for 1 hour, then worse than before. Have tried asking Coolpad US for help, they don't answer phone or emails. Boost mobile just wants to sell me another new phone. Please help if you can. I'm an mature older man who doesn't have the tech
savvy to figure this out. Thank

I have a HP Pavilion g6 Notebook laptop 6.00 GB Ram 64 bit OP System, which I want to sell. It is a few years old, but

hardly used, and is in prestine condition. If I remove everything, I believe it will automatically install the Windows that it

came with when I purchased it new. It is running Windows 10, but I cannot remember if I upgraded from an earlier version.

There is nothing of any importance on the laptop. Is it possible to remove files, and be sure that Windows 10 remains.

My friend told me about talkatone. I downloaded it but it said that I need google play services to use it. I've been warned about them. What should I do?

Years ago, Syncios Data Transfer worked great. But it hasn't been updated. Metro Stores recommend Samsung Smart Switch and are unaware of other choices. Which app is the best to use for an A54 to A54 transfer, and what will the app NOT transfer?

I have a MacBookPro 16" M1 if a laptop is needed.

Thanks.

This old 55" TV (HU8550?) now shows an instant green screen. Must replace the set. I prefer Samsung, and it must be 55". Prefer to buy from Costco, and this set looks good: https://www.costco.com/samsung-55"-...rs-of-total-coverage*.product.4000154397.html

However, Tom's Guide: Samsung OLED vs. Neo QLED TV — here's the one I would buy right now

Thoughts? Size must be 55".

Thanks.

Hi,

Had intruder issues a whileback now n since then ive had issues with my wifi n my phone.

Firstly ive got s second hand phone bought fot me by a friend as ive had enough of tne suspected remote access to my device i experianced it seems to be the case with every phone ive had even after a factry reset are there any other changes to anything i nred to do to ensure for eg nothings been done to the phone (current or new) can anyone use anything or have added something remotley to download files n othet info ask as ive ecperisnced imtruder attacls my wifi provider r lookimg into my wifi not achieving gusrabteed 46.8 mbs its as low as 7.8 mbs and also noticed a new wifi name EE Wifi with no password!
my other friend said to add developer options n enable the sensors toggle n otd show in my drop down menu.


Noticed an option called oem unocking on the list of my current phone which is disabled (toggles showing grey not green).
Am i right by saying it needs to be on green to stop remote or any othet access to ny files/allowing them to be nodified is this correct?

What steps can i take to npt have to worry about another phone or do i just ignore tbe above n factory reset the new phone is it as simple as that?

Thank you masdively in advance,

Roxanne

The 5.2 magnitude earthquake is tied for the fourth strongest in Texas history. It occurred in an area where oilfield companies have long been injecting wastewater from fracking underground.....

Another large earthquake shows seismic activity continues to increase in West Texas, experts say

I'm not an anti-fracking protester but, fracking seems to cause a lot of earthquakes. Oklahoma had 567 earthquakes (3.0 and above) in 2014 when there was a lot of fracking. They need to come up with a different method to extract extra natural gas and oil.

We have a many fix for running in emulator with debug mode with ADB

Something's been up with the site for at least the last few hours, it becomes inaccessible for a while then comes back.

How do I set up above so that somebody finding my phone will see the message to call a number. I have set up app and checked that the mesage is correct. I can get the phone to ring from my computer. However when I pretend to have lost the phone

Samsung have just released their 5th Beta update ZWK5 for those enrolled on their beta programme.

Build = F946BXXU1ZWK5

Download = 663.20 MB

Build date = 06 November 2023

Camera version = 14.0.00.43

Security patch = 01 November 2023


It is a FOTA, (Firmware Over The Air), update and you can check... Settings > Software update... to see if it is available for you. Alternatively, you can connect to the Samsung PC suite, Smart Switch and check via that.

Software information

I often forward links to various articles from my mobile phone to my email. Is it possible to somehow add another item to the sharing option - send to my (specified) mail address, so that I don't always have to select my mail address from my contacts?

Is there an app that wakes up a phone when you wave your hand over the proximity sensor that ACTUALLY WORKS? I tried several of those, such as WaveUp, KinScreen, Gravity Screen but they just stop working after some time. Gravity Screen is more stable but uses a lot of battery.
