Double tap to wake

Google pixel 6 pro and what I mean is which app from the app list? You know, when you go to settings - apps and see the list of all the apps on your phone
Apps are individual packages of software to do specific tasks. The Android operating system is a different matter. It's a complex firmware that manages and maintains your phone, and it's a vital way for us to interact with our phone's hardware. The Settings app, a default in every Android device, is the most common way for us to customize and configure how are phone's function.
It might make it less of a hassle when you differentiate between apps you install (and come preinstalled), and the Android OS when you want to set up your phone the way you want. Start out by just sitting down and going through Settings menu to see all the options that are already available to you. The Settings app is unique and comprehensive, and the options in your phone's Settings' menus are specific to your phone model. (i.e. the Settings menu in a Pixel will have similarities with but also differences than the Settings menu in a Samsung.)
If there is something you can't tweak in your phone's Settings, that's when you need to search for a third-party app on the Play Store that's a possible solution.

Tyreek Hill

yeah but the issue, if we are talking about officer safety, is that the minute that officer reached in to open the door, he was in a much vulnerable position. he could have been shot.. like the cop in the second video i posted who said, if it were about safety and Tyreek would not come out, the cop should have just stood back and kept his distance. this was not about safety. like i said, it was all about how Tyreek was not obeying the cops commands. and the cop got butt hurt about that and escalated the encounter. i also said that it is both Tyreek's and cops who were present fault. this whole thing should have been handled different.

and cops should be held to a higher standard. they need to maintain a professional attitude at all times. no matter how non compliant the citizen is. cops should not blow their tops like that when things do not go their way.

did you not see the video i posted? i actually agree with the cops in that video.

Help Image size of Samsung Z Fold 6 and S24 Ultra?

Hello,

If there is an image in Telegram or Whatsapp, the area/info at the sides are hidden before you press on the image to enlarge it, I need to press the image to enlarge it to see the whole image.

Q1. In Telegram before you press the image to enlarge it, does the image show more area/info in Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 than in Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?

Q2. In Whatsapp before you press the image to enlarge it, does the image show more area/info in Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 than in Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra?

Thanks

default email signature

I don't really understand why anyone would want one of those default signature that advertises which app sent it. I can see why the app developer might, but not the actual user.
I agree with you. As for me, it's like you don’t care what you're sending to your addressee if you just leave the default "sent from" signature. It doesn’t add anything useful and looks a bit lazy. I prefer to customize mine to look more professional and polished, especially with tools like Exclaimer that make it easy to create something personalized.

Help Tech Support & Things That Make You Go Hmmmm...

We finally got this issue resolved. For anyone else having this annoying problem the culprit is RegiStar in the app GOOD LOCK. Just go tO RegiStar, and if you have nothing assigned to the "Side Key press and hold" function, either turn it off, or select an action for it. I turned mine off because the phone itself has a Side Key function option. Good luck.

How to clear up Internal Storage Space on Android Phone

Your two posted screen shots represent two completely different scenarios -- the first indicates a phone with 16 GBs of internal storage, the second indicates a phone with apparently 128 GB or more internal storage. Are they from two different phones, or instead are both from just your Moto E6? (..... and you had your microSD card formatted as Portable in the first screen cap and then formatted as Internal in the second cap, an issue being only so much pertinent details are greyed out.)
They are the same phone. I have a 128 micro SD card inserted into the phone, but it is installed as "portal" storage, not integrated "internal" storage. I do remember now , that I wanted the ability to easily transfer files, photos, videos to and from my phone to my laptop so I set it up as portable. I suppose I could re-format the micro SD card so that it's internal, but I guess then there is no easy way to transfer photos, videos, files to/from computer (I guess uploading to cloud) but that's way way too much of a pain.

Psycho clock

Yeah... it's probably running on a low-bidder processor chip that was never calibrated to "one second". If you can still get a refund, get it. This is why we don't use digital thermometers to check our temperatures and see if we have a fever: there is no way to know how accurate (or not) those cheap things are. We have old-school mercury thermometers: humans have known the properties of mercury for thousands of years... the thermometers are consistently accurate and NEVER need batteries. The best place to find them is yard sales, estate sales or ebay.

In Memoriam - Our Pets

The hurt will finally go away, the memories will not, that is what I have learned.

I feel the pain of all owners who have lost/had to put down a four legged friend.

This is Honeydog, I caught her living out of trash cans in an alley and she went on to be my best friend for many many years and I finally had to put her down due to old age. She was blind and deaf and could not hold her bladder, but I still loved her !

RIP baby girl

Help Pixel bootloader

Many thanks, that worked. This wasn't explained in the installation directions.
what worked? and just curious where did you get your instructions? going forward always do your research over at XDA Forums. and feel free to pop back here if you have any questions. xda forum are great for getting info and guides, but there can be drama over there and thus i never post anything there. here we are much more friendly and drama free ;)

Looking for an android app to "only" view photos

i don't get ads when i use google photos. i love the fact that all of my photos are backed up on the cloud with me not having to do anything. plus i can take a photo and almost instantly i can get that photo to my pc without having to hook up any wires and such.

but to each their own. i am glad you found something that works for you.
