Help Force Front Panel use with Phone Open

That won't work, @ocnbrze but I appreciate the idea. That's great if I use the camera app: but I'm not. I'm using the TelePrompter app, which will automatically open the camera app once I press START. Problem is, if I then go to the front cover preview, the teleprompter is still on the main display!

My only solution has been to use the front panel camera and do everything from there. If I start everything on the front panel and then open the phone, everything naturally moves to the main panel. So I guess I'm stuck using the front panel camera for my videos.

Power Outage Alarm Pro

Hi Phil
I have got the same problem as you had. Did you ever find a solution?
I've gone one worse actually as one of my old phones had a catastrophic demise and I'm trying to transfer the app to a newer phone but now run into the licence check issue. It's still working on the other old phone though. I need 2 because our 2 freezers are on different power supply circuits and when we go away on expeditions we need to cover both so we can message a friend to come in and reset the circuit breaker(s).

[FREE][GAME] Space Math

I've never played math games yet, but they seem to be interesting and will help to improve skills. I started improving them some time ago, and have lessons with a tutor twice a week. I can already see that my skills improved, but so many things I still have to learn. When I need some help with homework I use https://plainmath.net/post-secondary/calculus-and-analysis/multivariable-calculus/multivariable-functions to find a solution. It's a site with different questions and answers, and also, sometimes I post there questions myself and get a solution. Today I'll have some free time and will try to play a math game.

How Do We Get More Privacy With Google Assistant Turned On?

Using Android 13 on Pixel 6, I go to Privacy | Permission manager | Microphone. Under the "Allowed all the time" list there is nothing listed. But Google Assistant does respond to "Hey Google" ALL THE TIME. Google must therefore be listening all the time, and they are not following their own security model by listing Google Assistant in this microphone permissions list.

What gives with that?

Help Android 11 show device contacts/UI issue

Bit late on this one, only just joined the forum.

Hi BrianRM, I have just bought a Motorola G31, the contacts were imported from my sim which in turn were exported from my old Samsung to the sim.
Still with me? Only had the Motorola Android 11 a few days and used my google account to store the contacts, but kept losing some of my contacts especially on one occasion where I added 5 new contacts that were missing and it proceeded to wipe out the ones already there.

So I decided to switch off all syncs to google and enter all my contacts again, this time choosing 'Device', great , not lost a contact since.
However there are a few problems, the contacts are only accesible from within the phone app, the one on the home screen is Googles app.

There is no option to save contacts to the sim card only the device and no export/import to device

Anything like that is only applicable if you are using a google account, I'm beginning to hate Google as much as I hate Apple for trying to tie you in to there empire, "Use us or get reduced functionality". I have contacted motorola who unfortunately have said, Sorry but you need to talk to google,
even though I'm sure they could have made a phone contact able to save to sim and import/export.

Problem headset

I'm not sure if this started after the update, but every time I use WIFI and Bluetooth, my WIFI connection dies less than a minute after using it. For example, I'll connect my Bluetooth headphones and then start up a streaming music service. In less than a minute, the music stops and my wifi connection is dead (even though it says it is still connected). Can't browse the web, do speed test, etc. Have to disconnect WIFI and reconnect. But it will do it again as soon as I start using the connection
I also found the same problem. Looking for good answers.

Help Automatically have notifications for Android apps turned off after installing them.

If Do Not Disturb is enabled, is it all functions of the app is still working like normal, only notifications is muted (notifications do come in silently in notifications panel)?
correct DND is only for notifications and its sound.....everything else will run as intended depending on the app.

Impending worldwide recession?

We ARE in a recession already.

This is what would be being reported, if they had not recently changed the very definition of what a recession is.

This is all part of a plan.

If it becomes obvious by definition that your administration or organination is afraid that the plebians will call them out on the results of their actions, it is a simple matter of just changing the definition of key words to hide the fact that there policies are the cause of bad things.

The education system has done a wonerful job in proucing generations of people that willl hardly even bother to look up any definitions anyway.

But it only takes a small percentage of the population to revolt for problems to arise.
So definitions must be changed so that future generations will not know what is really going on.

Help Transparent non responsive button coming on Realme GT2 screen, need help to remove it.

To me, it does look like some sort of security thing.

In my opinion, it also seems to look like some app that has been downloaded and that has the permission to overlay itself onto other apps.

This is where I would start my search for the culprit, by searching through what apps have this sort of permission.

Then there may be a setting tto turn the notification or the overlay off.
If not, then you may make the decision to ditch the app altogether.
If you like said app, then you may want to contact the developer of the app and see what kind of respomse you get.

Slow SD card access, should I upgrade?

You can try a gallery app that does not rely on thumbnails.
Thumbnails are those tiny versions of your pics and vids on a gallery menu that let you make your selections.

Most gallery apps make this little versions, and with thousands of them the amount of space (and time) they take can really add up.

Simple Gallery Pro does not seem to store thousands of thumbnails, no does it take a long time to present you with content.
It works well in tandem with Simple File Manager from the same developer.

Cannot install Google

A Go edition device will have its own set of apps, usually called the same but with the addition of the word Go.

Most likely your device already has Google Go installed from the factory. Just as likely is the posibilility that the Play Store wont let you have both installed at the same time, or that the normal version of it just will not fit or is not compatible with the device.

The OS on a Go device works fine, but is not designed to run large, resource hungry apps.
