Everything all at once

nickdalzell
Modern Samsung phones are garbage. Especially the flips/folds. They're basically doing a worse version of what the Kyocera Echo did in 2012, like most modern tech. Doing the same job in a far more frustrating way. I dream of the day we get the pace of actual tech progress we had back in 2010 back and start adding features and innovations instead of regressing like we've done since 2015+. If any OEM made a slider phone today, they'd find a way to mess that idea up as well.

The Z-series still suffer the crease issue which is unacceptable given these phones are double what a CrApple is in price.

There is GrapheneOS, which is a Google-free Android that is promoting privacy, but you have to get a Pixel to have it, which means giving Google your $$$ anyway. Seems we true Android geeks are damned if we do, damned if we don't in this 'future.' All Google seems interested in doing is following Apple.

*Posted from Windows XP, because even modern Windows sucks.

Tik Tok Video Quality

B
Yes, I'd be happy to help you improve the quality of your TikTok videos. Here are a few tips that may help:
Record in landscape mode: TikTok videos are typically recorded in landscape mode, which provides a wider and more visually appealing format for your content.
Use a good camera: The quality of your video will depend largely on the camera you use. If you have a smartphone with a good camera, use that. If not, consider investing in a high-quality camera or using a camera app that allows you to manually adjust the camera settings.
Ensure adequate lighting: Good lighting is essential for high-quality videos. Make sure that you record in a well-lit area or use additional lighting if necessary.
Use editing tools: TikTok has a variety of editing tools and filters that can help you enhance the look and feel of your videos. Experiment with different options to find the ones that work best for you.
Upload in high resolution: When you upload your video to TikTok, make sure to upload it in the highest resolution possible. This will ensure that the video looks as good as it can on the platform.
We are done with the quality. If you need help with gaining popularity (views, likes, and followers), you should consider using SocCeleb. It is a service where you can purchase all you need (views, likes, and followers) for a low price.

Help US cellular on Verizon?

No need to leave or be sorry or think you've done something wrong, stick around for a bit - it's a great forum full of helpful people. Sometimes it's hard to 'read' what people meant but no one was implying you're a thief.

That's how it made me feel like I was being called a thief like I said a coworker gave me phone thinking they were helping me out since I'm still using an galaxy s6. But like I've said I'll give them the phone back tell them they need to take back wherever they got it from.

Help Wireless DeX and Android TV

The_Chief
I'd love to know how to use Chromecast on my Z Fold 4 to project wireless DeX to the TV. I don't believe it is possible right now... not until Google decides to cooperate with Samsung a little more.

UPDATE:

Apparently it's SAMSUNG that's to blame. Wireless DeX uses Miracast, which Google has long abandoned in favor of Chromecast. So this is a problem for SAMSUNG to fix.

Use of Contacts Groups

C
In my contacts I have three Labels for contacts thus:
System Group (contains ALL GMAIL contacts)
Phonebook (people I have tagged to be included in my home phone book)
Home Phone Book (other I have tagged for home phone use)

When I select the phone icon, to make a call, and press contacts it lists the System Group.

How do I make it show ONLY the Phonebook people?

Phone runs on Android 11

Can anybody identify these notification icons?

ocnbrze said:
just pull the notification bar down to see what it is.

unless this is not your phone which 9 times out of 10 what usually happens here in AF. we get this question everyday. the problem is that there are milllions of apps with notification icons......so unless it is something popular like facebook or youtube, most of the time these threads only get guesses from us. the only true way to know is to either ask or look in the notification bar.

Help How I solved our 0% battery / No charge conundrum

SOFTWARE ISSUE PREVENTING CHARGING & THE FIX FROM A RETIRED MOTOROLA ENGINEER.

IT IS THREE EASY STEPS TO FIX PHONE.
1. PLUG YOUR PHONE NORMALLY YOU DO NOT NEED TO WRAP THE WIRE OR KINK THE PLUG. JUST PLUG IT IN AS IF THERE WERE NO ISSUES. :rolleyes:

2. WHILE HOLDING THE VOLUME DOWN BUTTON AND THE POWER BUTTON IN SIMULTANEOUSLY WAIT ABOUT 20 SECONDS THEN RELEASE BOTH BUTTONS SIMULTANEOUSLY. THIS LOADS THE PHONES "BOOTLOADER" MENU, SOME CALL IT FASTBOOT IT DOESN'T MATTER. THIS IS WHAT YOU SHOULD SEE NORMALLY....

View attachment 161375

I SAID FIXED IN THE PHOTO ABOVE WHAT I MEANT IS WORKING PROPERLY. IF YOUR SCREEN LOOKS LIKE THIS CONGRATS YOUR A TECH PRODIGY AND FIXED YOUR PHONE IN ONLY 2 STEPS! LEAVE YOUR PHONE IN THIS STATE TO CHARGE OVER NIGHT.

FOR ALL OTHERS WHO HAVE BATTERY STATE INFO THAT SAYS CHANGING SLOWLY AND THE TEXT IS RED (sorry no photo) YOU'LL BE DONE IN ABOUT TWO MORE HOURS! IT'S TIME TO PERFORM THE LAST STEP!

3. NOW DO ONLY THIS...
NOT BY PHONES PLUG BUT BY THE USB END YOU WILL UNPLUG THE PHONE FROM THE WALL OUTLET AND PLUG IT RIGHT BACK IN.

FIXED? YEP THE TEXT IS NOW GREEN AND IT'S CHARGING NORMALLY.

SORRY ABOUT THE 2 MORE HOURS TO GO PRANK, LIGHTEN UP YOU FIXED YOUR PHONE! CONGRATS

TOMORROW MORNING SELECT "START" USING THE VOLUME UP/DOWN BUTTONS WHEN YOU HAVE START HIGHLIGHTED CLICK POWER AND PHONE WILL START NORMALLY ALL CHARGED READY TO GO!

HOPE THAT HELPED!

Thanks for the tip. I've done all that. screen shows 'battery ok' in green but not the word '(charging)'. I've just left it connected to the charger like this for a day but nothing happened. When disconnecting it from power I am back to the same situation. Power charging symbol (white on black background) comes up without showing a percentage below it and phone simply does not operate at all..

Any tip on how to resolve this @Getjkelly2 ?
