I am trying to fill in an online form, requesting 4 documents which are in my Gallery. The form says for me to highlight each document and drag it onto the form. How do I do that?
My phone's OS is Android 10

Usually when websites have this there is an option to "browse" instead of drag. What happens if you click that (i.e. does it open a file browser)?

Dragging into a box is, as @ocnbrze has said, really a computer interface rather than a phone one.

Do you know that your texts are actually being received?

Are these the only contacts you've texted? If not, do they have anything in common?

And are the texts SMS or MMS? There's more can go wrong with MMS.

Sorry it's all questions, but trying to spot things that might help identify the cause.

I've never seen it in 12 years of using Android. Apps going rogue happens occasionally, though I've never had anything this bad, but I've not seen this particular process go off the rails myself.

My mom's Sharp FS8009 also had similar problems, happened much earlier than mine. Sudden spike in temperature even though the phone is in idle. We factory reset that one many times to no avail, and I didn't reinstall the GSAM Battery Monitor. Sharp doesn't have Bixby Voice, so I'm not sure which process caused the temperature spike.

Hi,

I want to retrieve the ARFCN (Channel Frequency Number) while the device is connected to a 5G network, which can be of 2 certain types (SA and NSA). The type (NSA) I have problems with (and it is the type which most of the actual 5G networks fall into) uses a 4G LTE network cell as a primary cell.

I use the method PhoneStateListener.onCellInfoChanged(List<CellInfo> cellInfo) to retrieve all the cells available (connected or not) to my device, and although my phone displays clearly the 5G indicator (and I get the 5G signal my device is receiving through PhoneStateListener.onSignalStrengthsChanged(SignalStrength signalStrength)) none of them is an instance of CellInfoNr, thus resulting impossible for me to get the ARFCN which is only available through a get method in the CellInfo class.

Thank you in advance

The app is working well enough for me. So this thread is closed.

The request for recent Android devices is interesting, since that's clearly a very old one in your screenshot (I've not seen that style of recent apps screen for many years). This is relevant because the current style of recents screen only shows 1 app at a time (with little bits of the previous and following visible to the sides) where you scroll left/right to switch apps, so fairly different from this.

I don't know the answer, and suspect there isn't one. The recent apps screen is a system feature. If you wrote your own launcher you could probably arrange for it to open that rather than a home screen (I presume that if you are using one of these apps and the screen times out you would wish to return to that app on unlocking, rather than go to this whenever you unlock regardless). But I can't think of any launcher that does this. That doesn't mean one doesn't exist, as I've not tried every launcher out there, but it is to be honest a pretty niche feature request.

Wouldn't a simpler solution just be to have a single home screen for your device with these 5 app icons on it? That would have the same effect, you open the device and you have buttons for those 5 apps and nothing else (though you'd get no preview of what they were doing). Or just put those 5 in the dock?

Anyone had success in recovering them?

Looking for the same answer.

My Uncle had this problem, and I found a way to recover the files. The .tec file has the same pixel density as the original .jpg, only in the wrong format.

I've written a Java program to automatically restore the files. You can get it from my website here: thebillington

Hope this helps if you still have your .tec files!

Hey,any chance you could help me out with the same? The link appears to be dead.
I'm looking to do the same trying to recover my old pictures from .tec file to jpg.

I found Android TV to be pretty poor with app compatibility. And Bard's Tale is a pretty intense app so I'm not surprised it doesn't work.

thing is that was an old free version for android - Im sure the new Paid version works perfectly !!

great thanks.i did firgure out how to block unwanted calls on the a21 finally. i guess it was so hard because i di not get many calls. but i do not like getting the same scammer all the time so i block them.

now to see if i can figure out how to merge the sd card into the a21 phone's internal memory. the k20 i have does the easy but i have yet to find this on the a21.

it looks like the lg will be served by lg for a few more years according to their website. so i may just get a g7 if i can't make this a21 phone have more memory. thanks

I have tried severals of them, and found Yo PDF. It is very good for drawing but deleting option is not good, and it didn't save changes when the document was in SD card.

No issues on my z fold 3 with using voice and keyboard. I mainly use voice for texting when I'm driving or when I use maps.

My newer moto phone that runs Android 10 does not have this problem. You can use the speech feature but the next time you send a message it goes back to the keyboard.

Thank goodness I was able to fix this. Somebody told me about the option to uninstall updates, and at least I'm no worse off than I was. I'm back on the Stylus, but I still can't sign in to the website. I have tried going to it via Gmail, and even shut down No Root Firewall temporarily.

yeah it put a lot of my games in the Game Launcher app, i have to go into it to view and play the games.

Thanks guys Some how it fixed itself.

Android system update ready notification

So I cancelled Paramount + (until season 3)

I also cancelled Netflix. Too much $$ money and too much crap on it.

To use these codes you type them into the dialer keypad. You should not need to press the call button.

However, some manufactures disable some of the codes. And if you bought your phone through a service provider they may also have removed some of them from the ROM, so if your experience is different from another user of the same phone that might be the reason. If the code is not supported by the phone software you are out of luck.

To give you an example, my Galaxy s21 supports the *#06# code, which will show the IMEI and serial number. But the *#*#4636#*#* code, to access the "testing" menu, does not work. So this is a case of a manufacturer removing one of the standard codes from its handsets (in my case a non-carrier UK model, which are generally far less locked-down than US carrier models).

I am interested in the caps only feature because I am using Android mobile barcode scanners in my manufacturing plant. The workers using these devices, which look like robust thick mobile phones, use a website that is part of our ERP system that they do transactions in. They have to tell the system when they are moving parts from a bin to another bin and all the part numbers and bin numbers are capital letters. So if the keyboard is not auto capitalized, you have to constantly tell it to make everything capital. These devices are used for nothing else. So if you all needed or wanted a legit use reason, there it is! I was gonna try Fleksy but also read it’s Russian and different? Is there really not a quick easy way to make this happen?

Click to expand...

FYi Fleksy are actually in Barcelona, Spain, not Russia.

As for a keyboard that's always in UPPER-CASE LETTERS by default, I'm not aware of any. But apparently Fleksy does offer user customisation of keyboards, which might work for your uses. https://developers.fleksy.com/ Like maybe it could create you an UPPER-CASE only keyboard.

I am looking for an adblocker app for android which is not automatically blocked by qustodia. Would anyone be able to advise me?

Click to expand...

You probably cannot use both an adblocking app and the Qustodio app, it's a matter where you need to pick one or the other. The content filtering aspect that both utilities will rely upon as a background service on your mobile device creates a conflict since the two processes are attempting to use the same system resources.

For a more long, drawn out reason why you won't be able to have both apps running at the same time, it all boils down to a basic security aspect that's a part of every Android phone/tablet. With an Android device, all the user accounts are restricted with limited permission levels. That's a default. When we're initially setting up our Android devices, there's no option to set up a User account with root privileges. All our user accounts are protected and limited. It's not a like installing Windows where you can set up Administrator and User accounts, with Android it's predetermined and curated. So when you installed that Qustodio app, it only has user-level permissions on your device itself. You can manage your child's Qustodio service remotely but that's a different situation, on both devices the app does not have root-level permissions to the devices they're installed. That directly relates to the conflict issue between an ad-blocker app and the Qustodio app. Since both apps will be running with only user-level permissions, neither has access to the system-level networking processes that Android uses for online access. So with non-root apps that do any kind of function like content filtering, they have to rely on a stop-gap workaround, a local VPN service. Note this isn't a VPN service that you sign up with and uses remote online servers, this is just a single-purpose, local VPN service that runs solely within your mobile device -- the VPN is used to do the actual content filtering. Data packets get redirected and loop back through the VPN. The other issue is only one VPN service can run on an Android device, so that's why there's a conflict.
