Google play store help

I have restarted my tablet. I have cleared both cache on play store an Google services . I have even unistalled and reinstalled Google play store. My tablet is up to date. If I can't find a solution my have to factory reset and have minecraft file with stuff ect... which I'll have to separately do a lot of things
I know you say the tablet is up to date, and from what @svim posted it was released in 2019, but I'm not sure if it would still be on the latest Android. There was an old supporting app for Play that would sometimes go wonky and require a data and cache wipe. IIRC it was something like download manager. I know you aren't actually trying to download, just preregister, but the problem mirrors the same type or issues this app would cause, so its worth a shot.

Alternatively, have you tried preregistering for the app through a browser at https:\\play.google.com, either on your own tablet using a browser or on a computer. This would at least isolate the problem being play on your tablet.

Lastly, can you link an example of a game you are trying to preregister for so one of us can try it and eliminate a broader issue with play or a specific app. :)

Bluetooth on the '16 SL has an Android issue.

Even when the phone is inside the home and the car is parked in the garage, my Bluetooth no longer connects to Android but works great with the iPhone, thus Bluetooth is definitely working well. Nissan claims that nothing can be done and that it is caused by a software update on my Android. Has anyone have this problem before and managed to fix it? I'm hopeful a solution exists.

App to Track Elapsed Time for Multiple Events

I do multi-day fermentations on various kinds of foods. Is there an Android app that would let me track each batch of beer/wine/food that I am fermenting over the course of multiple days?

As an example, say that I am testing three beer formulas, and I want to track the elased time for each of the three ferments. I would want this app to let me create three timers, name them, and then have them all continue without preventing me from creating a fourth timer later. Does that exist?

When i connect LG L70 D325 to any computer it's just charging

Keep in mind that a Factory Reset and flashing firmware are software-only solutions, they cannot solve hardware-based problems. Also stop wasting time trying different drivers and other such utilities, that's all software. And given you've tried different computers that are running completely different operating systems that's a dead end too. At this point, there's most likely to be some kind of USB-hardware related problem with your phone. Again, software can't fix that.

It's an eight year old phone, really dated as far as smartphones in general so it is not too surprising if some internal component does fail. Although it could be something as simple as cleaning the metal contacts inside the USB port. There are two dedicated solely for data transfer and two dedicated solely for power transfer. In your instance perhaps one or both of the metal contacts for data have just built up some grimy corrosion over the years.

But a phone this old isn't going to remain functional forever so work on this as challenging project but don't get too fixated.
Thanks . you are a legend. at this point i guess i have to give up .

Android Studio res file error "The file name must end with .xml" when trying to run mediapipe exampl

For anyone who is having this problem on windows, the issue is that when you run the create_win_symlinks.bat the first step is to use a command that windows might not recognize to remove the placeholder files which are these res files that contain ```../../../res```.

Solution that worked for me was to manually delete them in the hands, facedetection, and facemesh /src/main folders then running the create_win_symlinks.bat again.

USB File Transfer

Though if you have a large number of photos you want to transfer then you may have to pay Google for sufficient storage (especially if you want to maintain the highest quality). And not everyone wants to give Google a copy of their entire photo library. So I understand preferring to do your own backups.

One thing you could try: enable the "developer options" menu, look in there for a "default usb configuration" setting and set it to file transfer. That would deal with any problem of the option not showing up in notifications. Don't mess with anything else you find in there unless you know what you are doing!

To enable developer options you need to find the "About" or "About phone" section in the system Settings, choose "software information", find the "build number" and tap that repeatedly until it tells you that you are now a developer (or maybe that developer mode is enabled - they change these things occasionally). Google seem to think this is cute...

If that doesn't work then there's always the 2 stage approach: connect a usb flash drive to the phone, use a file explorer app to copy your images to that, eject it and plug it into your computer. If your computer has a USB-C socket you can use a USB-C drive. If not then you need a USB A to C connector (also known as a USB OTG adapter, but make sure it's USB C rather than microUSB) so that you can plug a USB-A drive into the phone.

Realme C25s touch problem

If you don't want the flickering white circles appearing in your CoD or typing or whatever, then turn Show taps to OFF.

Show taps, is actually a diagnostic to test the touch-screen, and normally it wouldn't be used.
I tried that, turning off the "show taps" in developer options and test it but it's still the same like i did tap it at the same time but still the other finger tip still rushing to one another finger tip (show taps) on my phone

Need a solution for a door problem

I reccomend these for general purpose drywall hanging (pictures and such, not TV's or shelves). No tools to install, minimal damage to patch and paint if you remove them, and work really well.

Those come in different gauges as well. The bigger are rated for more weight. I used those the last few years to hang mirrors for customers. I highly recommend them as well.

Help Open .URL files in Browser

I know this old but it seems to be the only thing I can find that even resembles my issue. it is like noone has encountered it or needs to do it. I often drag links on my desktop to folders. Sometimes I want the folders to be copied and pasted to my android Internal Storage or SD Card (Samsung Note 20+ and older types). Unfortunatly I just here the desktop make a notification sound that I cant define but must be saying "s*$#% you, you can't do this. The folder with the .urls never paste and if the folders contain both files and folders, it will stop pasting any other files or sub folders inside the folder being pasted once it cant paste a url. I look and there are never any URLs in the folder and it is missing the rest of the files and sub folders. I can remove the SD card and paste it and stick it back in the android, but I cant figure out why it woont let me paste them through the sync cable on my android or any other means, besides removing the SD card. Can someone explain this and is there a way to make it paste them? I can do other stuff like save links in chrome or add to the home screen, but I like android cuz it has a computer like file system, so I want o be able to do it the way I want to somehow.

I am using the URL Open App to navigate to it to open but still doesnt solve the copy paste issue onto an android device.

Thanks

Help Facebook notifications not working when in deep sleep

Last night i found this:

  1. adb devices
  2. adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable

What application is this icon?

hard to say. we get this question almost on a daily basis. the problem is that there are millions upon millions of apps each with their own notification icons. so unless it is something like Facebook or youtube, it will be hard to determine what it is. you might get lucky and someone here might know it, but do not hold your breath on it.

the easiest way to know is to look into your phone's notifications to find out. but 99.9% of the time, the phone is owned by someone else. you can always just ask the person, but that is not as easy as it sounds i guess.

How would you approach making something like the small player in youtube?

I am trying to make an app which utilizes web components in a webview (but not the built in android webview). What we'd like to accomplish, is that when you hit a button you open a full screen activity, but if you go back, that activity doesn't go away completely but stays in a smaller section on the screen, without losing progress, so that you can click on it and open it up again back and forth seamlessly. A common example of this behavior is something like browsing youtube while viewing a video. The player minimizes to right above the bottom bar, allowing you to browse the app while keeping the video playing with the controls in view (note, this is not the same thing as picture in picture, which is what happens if you exit the app completely while viewing a video).

Would fragments allow this behavior? Or is there something more idiomatic I should look into to achieve this dynamic layout?

Here's a visual for what i mean:

I need my Tab-E to run video for weeks at a time

Thanks for the tips, svim, and the links
I've got the app pinned now (didn't know this was possible, so thanks), and running, so we'll see how long it runs. I don't mind paying for a good third-party app, but I won't rent.
Now that I'm thinking of it, I should probably go through all the phones in the spine and pin the app there, just for good measure. But I'll see how this works out, first.
Again, much appreciated :)
