Many apps keep crashing after the major update of December 3

Hadron
I've also never factory reset after an OTA update, and never had any problems. It was always something I'd recommend if things misbehaved after an update and nothing else worked, but never the first resort.

The OTA update is designed to install without a reset being needed, but they can't test all possible configurations (i.e. all the different apps, settings, data that different users might have) so sometimes you might need to clear things. Custom ROMs are different: they differ more from each other and are frequently incompatible, so if you change ROMs a reset is very often needed (always if you change from a manufacturer-customised software build to something based on the AOSP) and hence best done as a matter of routine.

My Phone can't save nothing!

Ah ok, But It doesn't work also with stock firmware with android 7. When I try to download something I've different error, the loading starts but I'm stucked at 0% or It doesn't start at all and I've got a message like " Access denied, you need to accept permission for this!

Have you granted the app you are using permission to access the storage? On modern Android versions you need to do that (it's a security thing). Of course it should ask the first time you try to use the app, but if it doesn't, or if you hit "deny" previously, then go into Settings > Apps, find the app in question, go into its permissions and grant it access.

Stylus for the S23 Ultra query

ocnbrze
Seyley said:
I was trying to find information as to whether recent, S21 and S 22 Ultra stylus will fit the S23 Ultra. This is purely a vanity project as I have ordered the red S23 Ultra and I was going to link it up with the red (bodied) stylus (I think from the S21 Ultra period)? Can anyone confrim if I woud be taking a retro step (technically) by installing the 'old' red stylus?
Click to expand...
everything i am reading says that the s-pen tech is the same as the s22 ultra with no new features. this leads me to believe that the s-pen for the s23 is the same as the s22. but i can't confirm if they are exactly the same as far as dimensions so i do not know if they will fit into the device or not. might have to wait until actual demos are available to look at it.

Android studio, gradle build issue

saramarz
hi
The error message states that the "com.android.application" plugin with version 7.5.0 could not be found in any of the repositories specified in the build file.

To resolve this issue, try updating the version of the "com.android.application" plugin in your build file to the latest version that is compatible with your current Gradle version. You can check the latest version of the plugin in the Android Gradle plugin release notes.

If that doesn't work, you can also try manually specifying the plugin version in the build file by adding the following code in the build.gradle file:
Code: 
dependencies {
  classpath "com.android.tools.build:gradle:<latest version>"
}

Replace <latest version> with the latest version of the Android Gradle plugin that you want to use.

Can't find game

First thought was Chrono trigger, it was in the distance future of where lavos was ruining the future for the past civilations, but no it does not sound like that, so my next thought was Rusty Lake, that does have a lab into it, different labs.

Actually...u r wrong. I just busted a Moto G Stylus last night, that had unlocked bootloader, full root, custom ROM, custom boot logo, custom boot animation and was running a modified retus stock ROM. I've also got a Moto E that has the same things done just different animations and roms. JS...

Samsung Grand Prime Plus out memory always

Zahid Ehsan said:
Hi,
I have 2 devices,
Samsung Grand prime plus (6.0.1 android)
Samsung Tab E 560 (4.4.4)
Both have 32 GB cards, my tablet is storing all new apps in card but my phone is storing everything in phone. I have tried best but every time its out of storage. I cannot update software cause there is no enough memory.
While in tab I have no such issue. I guess with software upgrade I should get more facilities but its actually downgrading.
can I fix my phone and store everything in SD card?

Samsung Galaxy 4 Classic LTE Watch

corellc said:
Device is a Samsung Galaxy 4 Classic LTE watch, which is a stand-alone watch; can receive and make calls, has GPS without the Cell Phone.

QUESTION: If this watch is miles away from the it’s paired Cell Phone, and it’s paired number is the same as the cell, would a GPS tracking report of the phone number reflect the Watch location or the Cell Phone location? In other words can GPS tracking differentiate between the tracking of the Cell Phone and its “paired Galaxy 4 Classic LTE” watch?
Click to expand...
yes. it can tell the difference. gps is not necessarily tied to a phone number. it is tied to the gps radios built into your phone and watch.

Rooting To Get Rid of UK Emergency Alerts ?

ocnbrze
fourthway said:
Cheers .... what I am looking for is a way to have an OS that does not have the option to turn on or off the alerts ... simply that they are not possible.
Is that possible ?
Is there a developer that has created an OS without this functionality ?
I am thinking of getting a new phone so would buy one which is compatible without any new OS.
Thanks
Click to expand...
nope not possible. whatever phone you get, you will have to root it. do your research first before you buy a new phone. like i said earlier not all phones are rootable.

not all phones have a development community. developers are the ones who know how to root phones. they also make custom roms(custom operating systems) as well as a custom recovery(mostly TWRP).

head on over here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/

xda is where most developers hangout. pick a phone and see if there is forum for it. if there is one then check to see if the forum is active or not. if there is no forum, then your phone does not have a dev community to support the phone.

Looking for a good call recorder app

The_Chief
I agree - that's important!

Here in the State of Tennessee call recording is legal as long as one party on the call is aware of it (that's me). Of course, if I call a business and the automated greeting says, "this call may be recorded for quality assurance purposes", that expresses intent to record and implies consent for me to record it, too.

Again, though, is the problem of getting a call recording app to work.

Root (help) xiaomi stuck in between bootloader and twrp. no idea what to boot

H
my problem is that :
this phone does not have vendor partition which i deleted cause i thought it blocks installations of other ROMs than stock. twrp also probably is bad one cause redmi go is 64bit phone but i can load only 32bit OSes from there (error 255). Most OSes found online were always stuck at boot or even were bootlooping/shutting down device/blackscreen.
why i do not want to install stock? mainly i dont want g-apps and when removing them from stock i had more bugs than next to a lake in warm day. literally - couldnt install apps due to lack of core package related to google play services (as far i remember it was forcing google play's antivirus on every local install), had more problems with calls/sms/wifi than before (losing signal, undelivered content, etc) and was this slow like almost unusable so i just NEED custom rom. second thing i want is just root but its a smaller problem cause this i can install anywhere.
i also dont want to lock back this phone from "encryption unsuccessful" cause i also was affected by this bug + i dont want relocking bootloader
my desktop with android tools runs slackware linux so installation of any .exe apps for any official xiaomi installer or scripts surely UNAVAILABLE. plain adb+fastboot+etc...
any ideas?
someone maybe have a currently working set of vendor, twrp and system partition? i dont care about android version number btw, any custom rom, really...
btw - i deal with this phone for over year
