Archived KeyBank App


A Blackberry still in use, neat. I do miss having a phone with a physical keyboard, I'm still not completely comfortable with the now typical software-driven virtual keyboards.

I'll tell you a secret, the job I had in corporate America started us on Motorola then Blackberry's two way pagers. You do remember pagers before cell phones don't you? Then they gave us 6200's which was my very first cell phone. I haven't owned every model because I keep things until they die, but it's pretty much the only phone I've ever carried.

I tried a touch screen for a solid month and just couldn't live without my keyboard. So I gave that phone to my daughter and we've been together since. I still have my KeyOne but the space bar skips but it's my backup. What's really sad is Blackberry took the HUB and all their apps out of the play store so the island really feels lonely. I was thinking of getting a Titan but I don't know what I'd do without the HUB. I'm spoiled by everything being in one place.

Help Identify App by Icon?

That's not an app, that's the 'finishing update' screen for Android 12. Each Android version (ever since they got rid of dessert names) has its own icon. If you were to pull the notification bar down, under that icon it will have a filling progress bar saying 'finishing update process' and eventually you'll get a pop-up saying 'your device has been updated [OK]'

The device has just gotten Android 12. Android 11, the previous version, would have had a stylized 'R' for its icon for the same reason. Android 10 had a 'Q'. These are remnants of the dessert naming scheme, with Q being for Quince Tart, R being Red Velvet, and of course, in your case, S being Snow Cone.
Thank you!

Unlock an HTC Phone

Thank you ocnbrze, I have looked at the back of the phone and I can see the following:

CE2200
Model 2PS6200 M10h

Is that of any help to you. Thanks again for coming in on my query.

obriar, thank you for your input, what you say is obviously absolutely correct. However, I'm sure that this must have happened many times, and for those who forget their pattern, there must be a way for them to get over the problem. I haven't used the HTC phone for probably 6 years or more but I thought it might come in handy as a backup phone.

transfer video less than a minute to laptop

what about google photos? as long as your google account gets sync'd so does your photos.

go here on any browser and sign in to your google account:

you can then just download the photos to your computer.

Help ANSWERED How to stop Bluetooth audio to answer a phone call on the phone?

Thank you. I asked the question because people complain that they can't hear me properly when I talk over the Bluetooth headset.

Sounds like you might need a better Bluetooth headset. :) I've got several BT audio devices, headphones(Bose & Sony), earbuds(Huawei), and a cheap BT beanie hat. And the phone call audio is good on all except the hat, which has a dreadful mic in it. But it's okay for music.

BouncyCastle stopped working on Android 13

I have a system service running on Android which uses BouncyCastle to create a "secp256k1" KeyPair. This is the code:
Java:
KeyPairGenerator keyPairGenerator = KeyPairGenerator.getInstance("ECDSA", "BC");
ECGenParameterSpec ecGenParameterSpec = new ECGenParameterSpec("secp256k1");

And before executing this piece of code I call the setupBouncyCastle method, which is this:
Java:
    private Provider setupBouncyCastle() {
        final Provider provider = Security.getProvider(BouncyCastleProvider.PROVIDER_NAME);
        if (provider == null) {
            // Web3j will set up the provider lazily when it's first used.
            return provider;
        }
        if (provider.getClass().equals(BouncyCastleProvider.class)) {
            // BC with same package name, shouldn't happen in real life.
            return provider;
        }
        // Android registers its own BC provider. As it might be outdated and might not
        // include
        // all needed ciphers, we substitute it with a known BC bundled in the app.
        // Android's BC has its package rewritten to "com.android.org.bouncycastle" and
        // because
        // of that it's possible to have another BC implementation loaded in VM.
        Security.removeProvider(BouncyCastleProvider.PROVIDER_NAME);
        Security.insertProviderAt(new BouncyCastleProvider(), 1);
        return provider;
    }

This all worked perfectly fine on Android 12L, but I am upgrading to Android 13 and now I get the exception: java.security.NoSuchAlgorithmException: no such algorithm: ECDSA for provider BC. Note: This is the same exception that I got on Android 12L if I didn't execute setupBouncyCastle. It seems like this method stopped working on Android 13?

If anybody has some details or an idea of what could be going on would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

Help After hard resetting my phone I can’t go thru the Android initial settings.

Ooo

How strange: the same happened to my wife’s phone. On the top of this the back camera stopped. I tried a hard reset but now I can’t complete the Android Settings process
what is Ooo? android setting process? can you explain more on what this is. and why can't complete it? error? bootloop? screen froze?

just remember the more details you give, the better we can help.

Eyesight problems using Android 13

To demonstrate PWM all one has to do is get an old Samsung Galaxy phone (even an S5) and film it with another device's camera. You'll see similar flickering you once got if you filmed a CRT TV. While when looking at the phone itself you don't see the flicker (some people like me sorta can out of the corner of our eyes) your brain still reacts to it. Looking at any OLED long-term when I used to read ebooks on my phones caused migraines.

I never get headaches of any type when spending long hours in front of my Windows 7 laptop.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra

Did NOT get shipped today... third time they did this, tell me a date and didn't happen. When I went online to chat, they gave me a bunch of excuses, this time he said between 27th and March 3rd. When I signed up on the 16th I was told in 2-5 business days, on the 23rd for sure. Isn't this grounds for breaking the contract I signed as I won't have the phone in time for my vacation I'm leaving on this weekend. If phone comes then it will get sent back as I have to sign for it. All phones are paid for so I want to leave T-Mobile now... sick of runarounds.
Wow this reminds me of the hassle with the nexus 6, my wife ordered mine as soon as it became available, she order it I think in either October or November 2014 it was supposed to be a Christmas gift, I didn't end up getting it till the end of January, first of February. I remember reading that some people waited till June of 2015 for their's
Recently I have been to a few Verizon stores and the only phones they had where budget samsung phones, one had a Z fold flip but if you wanted any of the flagship devices it would be 7-10 days

Smart Switch issues

I'd also suggest you continue using Smart Switch, the point being there are actually hundreds of thousands of Samsung owners who use it without a glitch. An overwhelming number greater than the isolated incidents with those who do have a problems using it. So just keep a balanced perspective.
But regarding your problems, it does sound a lot more like some kind of networking and/or connectivity issue you need to address first, not so much a problem with the Smart Switch utility. I would strongly suggest you do this project at home in a more secure and reliable setting. Hotel WiFi networks are public services and should always be used with a lot of forethought. They're not very secure and there's a likely to be a lot of content filtering/restrictions in place. Using a hotel WiFi network to do something like file transferring large amounts of data between devices might be blocked by firewalling. But really, even it was working out, you would be transferring the user account from one phone to another and all over a WiFi network that's not secure and not private, exposing all your data as they copy over from one phone to the other.

Or as others have suggested, just use a direct, phone-to-phone ad hoc connection instead of that hazardous hotel WiFi.
