Best backup app?

I used to use TB but, as has been said, it's seems to be no longer supported. I swapped to Swift Backup ... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.swiftapps.swiftbackup&gl=US ... and all is fine with the backup world once more ..... :)
nice.....gonna have to try this.

@groston i would still look into getting a custom recovery since you are rooted. having twrp installed is a very useful tool and every rooted phone user should have one. it should have been your next step after rooting the phone. having a nandroid backup is very important. a nandroid backup is a complete backup of your phone. if you mess up or something goes wrong, as long as you can get to your recovery(twrp) and have a nandroid backup, you can flash your recovery and it will like being back before anything happened. it is kind of like a save point in a game. if you mess up in your game, you can just go back to where you last saved the game.

so even if swift backup as suggested by @dvhttn , i would still get twrp setup and make a nandroid backup asap.

Acetel 50DL need free vnc that doesn't crash

Okay so I have an update fam

Is there an easy way to control multiple android devices from the PC when connected via USB? I would need the devices to connect to 4g for their data but be controlled via PC USB for their control.

In this scenario we could simply remote control the PC itself via Chrome remote desktop and then our assistance could control the phones from that remote desktop. This way phones are directly connected and controlled via PC use.

Wifi

Every day, I wonder how my 6 Pro will disappoint me today. I'm done with the Google line of phones. Sad as I've owned every Pixel since the first one. No excuses from Google, it's their SOC and software. I'm tired of switching Airplane mode on and off to get a cell or WiFi connection. It's a daily occurrence.

[FREE GAME] Idle Dungeon Manager

Hey!

We recently tried experimenting with mixing different genres of mobile games together, and we came up with this!

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coldfiregames.dungeon.manager.tycoon.idle.game

It's a mix of incremental games and RPGs in which you need to summon Heroes, level them up in order to conquer dangerous dungeons with powerful enemies!

Here are some features our game has to offer!:

- Collect unique Heroes with multiple Tiers!
- Make your Heroes stronger by equipping them with powerful gear!
- Conquer Dungeons and fight powerful Monsters!
- Daily and Weekly Challenges
- PvP Arena Mode

We would love to hear your feedback on our game as it is still in development and we want to add more content in the future.

Thanks!


Could you first put up your game as the title in the thread, you will get more results that way..

Set specific color of ImageView drawable to transparent?

I mean to change the color of a 'drawable' asset.

In this case, a .png file.

I already know how to make the background image more or less transparent or how to blend it with a different color.
Hmmm... like if you would go a simple short cut like, head over to the launcher, press on the gallery and it will open a png, not so sure myself.

New malware stealing banking login information

Skunky business with skunky online sources = skunky stuff coming your way.

It's possible that the... whoever... who took your card information has no intention of charging your card. They likely don't know how much they could get out of you. What they probably do know, however, is how much your card information (CVV code and all) is worth on the black market. My guess is that's exactly where your card information went: to every crook willing to pay for it.

I strongly advise you call your bank, explain what you did, cancel the card immediately and learn your lesson.

how to free up storage

Yes you are right, in these days phone storage should be huge as android systems are consuming more and more space.
well.....they are. its just like with anything now days. the more room you want, the more expensive it will be. my z fold 3 which costs me $1700 has 256 gigs of internal storage with 12 gigs of ram. i never have to worry about space on my phone. it is only half full.....lol

Help eSim question

I don't receive e-sim messages on my samsung, what could be the problem??

Who is your carrier?
Your phone's e-SIM is a direct correlation with your cellular service account. Have you contacted your carrier about your problem?
Are you also having problems with services like phone calls or using mobile data, or is this just a text messaging problem?

Help with Contacts

Sounds to me like you have your contacts syncing to multiple locations, i.e. Google, Outlook, local only.
If this is the case, you will need to delete the number from each contact provider. You can do that directly from the Samsung Contacts app by tapping the hamburger menu in the upper left and then selecting the dropdown at the top and changing the active account.

Deleted Messages Not of My Doing

Hello all again, many thanks to all helping me with this problem. I looked at trying to move all my messages from husband's phone through smart switch, but worried I might do something to his phone, and the process was not clear, nor easy to my mind. So I still haven't worked out why I can see 2500 messages listed in Cloud backup, but can't access them. What is everyone's opinion re making this issue public - ie via facebook or something? I cannot understand why they say they will get help back to you but nothing happens and you end up on the live chat, or phone yet again with no result. Still need to look perhaps also at Messenger+ for saving messages better for the future.

Phones Getting too Damn Big!

I have a Cat S31, and I was thinking about upgrading. I looked that the Samsung Xcover Pro and it is 6.3" tall. I decided against it. My next choice was the Cat S41, but it's a four-year-old phone.

All the other tough phones are too big, so I will keep my S31.

Is anyone else annoyed by the growing sizes of newer phones?

I know this is an old thread, but you might consider just a smaller phone with an overly rugged case.

Help How do I get more space on my phone?

At some point if you're putting so much time and effort fighting with your phone to free up more storage space, for your own peace of mind it's time to buy a new replacement phone with more storage to begin with. This is not meant to be dismissive at all, but instead of getting frustrated every time you pick up your phone and something happens where you need to open up a few MBs of storage space here and there, invest in yourself and make your quality of life better by getting a phone that just works as is.
