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.

Time to dump MetroPCS. Suggestions?

I have to ride the AT&T bandwagon on this one.
I actually take a crappy little flipphone when we travel, because it is on AT&T and neither of our main phone accounts are.

We both use different carriers, so normally at least one of us can get a signal.
But in reality, the crappy little flipphone has saved us when neither of our "bargan" carriers would function at all.

Regardless, I can tell you who to stay away from- T-Mobile and any company that relies upon T-Mobile towers.
Although some folks say they have good service with them, generally you must be close enough to one of their towers to touch it to get a signal.

My coverage with them is spotty, ununiform, and basically amounts to more time spent searching for a signal than it used to take to find and use a payphone.

Help Securing apps

God, Samsung always has to be so difficult.
My mother has always used them, and I absolutely hate trying to do anything with them.

I have had multiple different manufacturers over the years, and all of them have had the option for multiple users.

Once again, the simple fix is shot down by Samsung!

Lookout Mobile security failing 100%

I am with you guys on that. Its just that Outlook has this "scream" function that makes a loud siren noise even with the ringer off which was perfect for helping my perpetually phone-losing relative find their phone wherever they left it last.
But, I cancelled my subscription last night anyway due to all the trouble.
you mean Lookout....i think....LOL

find my device by google has a ring function as well, but it is not a scream.....LOL should be loud enough and will also work even if it is on silent or airplane mode.

Help Force controller support

I'm pretty sure you can't. The dev either built the game so it could use a controller, or it doesn't.

For Dragon Quest, the devs are Square Enix, who maybe able to add controller support to their game with an update possibly? Might be worth you emailing them about it.
It'd been several years, and many people have emailed them. They have no real interest in control support, it seems. I honestly figured that'd be the answer, but I was hoping there was an app to map touch to controller. Where it could emulate a directional swipe to joystick direction. Basically, hoping even though I didn't think so. Haha.

internet using metro pcs

i had my cameras on wifi and that did not work. you may be talking cloud but by the time i put 8 ip cameras and my 8 cam nvr network on the cloud i might as well pay the 100$ a month for cable and not have to deal with cloud payments.

i do not get verison or at&t internet in my area. i do have frontier but the dsl modems i looked them up for speed and they get 5 to 30mbps i get 50mbps now 30mbps would work but years ago when we did not have cable internet available in our are yet. we had cable but no internet i had dsl and by brother 2 city blocks down the road he got 15kbps yes kbps and i got 10kbps the phone company said it was because i was a bit further from the exchange box. and the noise in the wires.
so i hate to get frontier if all the have is the potential of 5 to30 mbps and can't guarantee 30mbps and if i was to get fiber that would cost more than i now pay for over 100mbps but 50mbps is fast enough for me for what i dio
