The World Economic Forum is responsible for the rather dystopian future that's supposedly planned for us come 2030. There's even a book written by its founder called "Covid-19: The Great Reset" and the things they want scare the hell out of me.

I'll stop here since any further discussion borders on political discussion which I'm sure the mods don't want any part in here.

I guess that's enough for this thread.

I've looked and do not see a way to delete this. You delete your email searches and old contacts, but not when you are comparing an email. It maybe I'm not finding the right words to describe your issue when googling it.

It's never really bothered me, but it rarely suggests old contacts.

AVJ3 with the October security patch for Android 12 has almost completed its international roll-out for the Fold4, F936B, with the unbranded European firmware on CSC code EUX now receiving the update.

Issue has happened again, except it doesn't say No Photos this time. In the Photos tab, all I can see where there should be photos is a random date a few weeks back although my most recent photos were taken yesterday. When I hold down on the date it apparently selects 5 photos that are nonetheless invisible in this area (see attached screenshot).

The photos are still in the Library tab, and when I log into Photos on desktop, all photos seem intact in the Cloud (and indeed, on desktop Cloud I can see the 5 photos taken on the aforementioned random date).

It's just the Photos tab in the Photos app that's gone wonky so seems it might be an interface/UI issue. Tried clearing cache and restarting phone. Who can figure out how to get the photos to reappear?

This happened again. This time, I noticed when I zoomed in on the Photos tab by swiping, a photo from yesterday appeared, but no other photos from yesterday or the days before. Unlocking a few photos made several non-locked photos appear, but not all. I finally found a (relatively) quick workaround: archive then unarchive all the photos.

Sent this feedback to Google:

No photos were appearing in the Photos tab of the Photos app. They were in the folders and Cloud, just not in that tab in the app. Clearing cache and restarting phone did not help. It seems I could technically select all photos from this month using the check-circle, but the photos still didn't appear. Last time this happened I had to clear app data to resolve it, but I shouldn't have to do this. This time, I discovered a quicker workaround: archiving then unarchiving the photos. But this issue should not be happening to begin with and the fact it has happened multiple times nearly a half year apart is not acceptable. Why hasn't this been fixed yet?

The fourth update of this year is out, and now we have Six racers per game, improved obstacles, and a much better racing experience. Thanks in advanced for your support and downloading this game, remember if you like it please rate it.

I have disabled hardware encoding and decoding and this seems to have fixed it. Thanks

You are the absolute GOAT (greatest of all time). I searched the whole internet, installed APK`s on my phone (app), contacted SAMSUNG support and even tried to disable hardware encoding and decoding, but didnt restart the app. I almost gave up, my last google search brought me to this page and I just tried it again, it works.

I dont know if you will ever read this, but thank you so much.
Finally i have some clean 360 vids.

Thanks man

One on extreme left is an old AirPush scam notification (the star). I remember those quite well.

MikeDT, wish doesn't just sell cheapo stuff, it's selling total garbage. I'm surprised that site is legal. Scam central.

At least the Echo didn't suffer the screen crease issue

The way I understand the reasoning behind which days are the begining of the week is due to the last day of the week.

It is biblical, and the difference is between Jews and Christians.

The Earth was created in 7 days according to scripture.
The 7th day of the week was to be the Sabbath, a day of rest.

The Jews use Saturday, and the Christians use Sunday.

There are certain sects (Seventh Day Adventist, for example) that vary on this.

Interestingly enough, the names of the days of the week are Pagan in origin.

The OP is referring to Daydream, once a standard feature of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and made it to subsequent versions but given the increasing lack of customization lately I'd not be surprised if it got axed.

As for changing the boot animation, you need root for that. That's even harder today than in the glory days of 2009. Being a moto, however, there are instructions online on their site to unlock the bootloader which is required for root, even though it's quite a process. Unfortunately, I never could make the boot animations make sound since version 6.0 Marshmallow. I think the code got axed as well--since I attempted to make a very TouchWiz-themed ROM run on my Nexus 6 years back and even though I successfully got the Samsung Galaxy SII boot animation to play, no sound ever played. It was one of the best boot animations around:

A phone's MAC address is just a device identifier, it doesn't have any direct relation to WiFi bandwidth speeds. Instead, you need to focus on either the coverage range of the router providing the WiFi network you're connecting to, or the bandwidth speed of the ISP's signal of the modem that feeds the router.
-- Is this slow issue with just one WiFi network or all WiFi networks? If just one that's likely to be a problem with the router. If all, that indicates your phone is having a problem.

-- Is this happening with just your home WiFi network, or elsewhere (i.e. workplace) If at home, have you tried just restarting your router?

-- If it is at home, do you rely upon an ISP's combined modem/router unit or do you have your own separate router?

-- Have you done any kind of coverage range testing? If you have good WiFi connectivity standing within a few feet of the router but it becomes more erratic as you move further away, that's a likely occurrence. You might be able to improve WiFi range but relocating/repositioning the router.

When you use the backup option in the WhatsApp app it will prompt you to select where you want the default save folder is located. Choose your Google Drive as your preference.
It's safer to have it saved to an online storage service anyway, and it makes it a lot easier to just do a restore or a transfer.

HP Smart print and the HP printservices seen my HP Deskjet(WiFi) but not my HP Laserjet 2300 connected with cable netwerk. I have this installed on a Samsug 53A.
At the same time it is working properly on my other Xiaomi 11T light.
Why ?

Well, no, I use google keep all the time. I'm just not a fan of smartwatches, so that's the component I'm missing. FWIW, have you tried keep? I can, though I don't often, take notes with it using OK google.

I used to Keep briefly a long time ago but that was on my smartphone. I'll have to take a look and see if it's available for my Galaxy watch.

Thanks for the reply!

Thanks for the tip, MourtFenal. In fact, thanks to all the helpful folk that have responded. However, the problem has now been solved.
Kind regards to all,

FYI the sites loads and displays no problems in Firefox on my Apple Macbook Pro and Samsung Note20 Ultra.

For about two weeks we have had the problem that Google / Android are rejecting apps for updates with the following statement:

We found that your app is not compliant with how REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES permission is allowed to be used. Specifically, the use of the permission is not directly related to the core purpose of the app.

Indeed, some of our apps had included this right in the past, but recent updates (for more than 6 months) no longer. We have checked and confirmed the current status as follows:

• Manifest controlled
• Searched all APK and plugins
• APK details in the store does not show this right either
• Display of the affected APK using "Sensitive Rights": all old beta versions which are not active

Unfortunately, all our objections and general support requests (also via other Google areas) are consistently ignored.

It is impossible for us to update our apps. Which is extra critical, especially with regard to requirements regarding newer SDK and billing API in two weeks.

How can we obtain help with the issue?

We're not a very small publisher, it's about apps with several hundred thousand installations.

Thanks

How Do I download Android Gradle Plugin 7.4?

Android Studio is dealing with two kinds of Gradle as seen in the Project Structure:

I have 7.5.1 set up. I think this part works.

Luckily, I found on the developer.android.com site, some information regarding the relationship between thest two things. https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/gradle-plugin?buildsystem=ndk-build#updating-gradle

And, on this page, I found this table which tells me what version of the plug-in I need.

So, where do I find this?

Click to expand...

You can specify the plugin version, 7.4.0, in either the File > Project Structure > Project menu in Android Studio, or the top-level build.gradle file.
If the specified plugin version has not been downloaded, Gradle downloads it the next time you build your project or click File > Sync Project with Gradle Files from the Android Studio menu bar.

Thank you!!

Ow, thank you guys for sharing this!
