I've edited the mp3 data before putting the files on my phone (Galaxy S10) but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Some but not all files seem to pull 1 thumbnail from one of the files in the list.

When I try play these tracks through my Sonos Beam soundbar this is what it looks like:




How do I make it possible to show the thumbnail I want it to show?

yep.....i'm all about privacy........LOL

it uses an app disguised as an anti-virus program. it also bypasses 2-step verifications!!!!!!!!!!

Wait, are you both talking about the Wear app on my phone and not settings on the watch? Because I just decided to open Wear and found the "more" @codesplice was referring to, added options for my email, sent a test email and got a notification on my watch.

Using Amazon Fire default email reader, the one that's already installed and available on the home screen, from time-to-time I'd like for an email to appear larger, that is without the sidebar (containing the email title & date list) nor top bar (containing the search option among other things).

I tried holding down an email in the list hoping there would be a contextual menu appearing containing an option to see the message in a new window, full-screen, reading mode, or the like, in vain (didn't see a contextual menu). I also looked at the top bar content, including settings, with no more success.

Thank you kindly for your help

Maybe secure browsing mode?

Maybe you should just ask the person who owns the phone

Try the phone in safe-mode, that is only the system apps and processes running. And if it's still glitching, freezing, and rebooting, then it's probably a fault that needs repair or replacement.

This was going to be my recommendation as well.

You can learn about using Safe Mode here:
Find problem apps by rebooting to safe mode - Pixel Phone Help

Note that you'll really need to leave the phone in Safe Mode for an extended period of time for this to be a valid test; if your phone was crashing every 6 hours or so, you'd need to wait at least 6 hours to see if there's a change.

If it still crashes in Safe Mode, like @mikedt says it may indicate a hardware fault which would not be corrected by a factory reset. If it behaves better, that might suggest that a factory reset could help .

I also had such a problem, but I fixed it very quickly

It seems that I will need to read all the books again in order to refresh my memory before the installation of your app.

no problem, thanks, maybe someone will need and will find the link of this post.

A quick google search produced a number of programs claiming to do the task of converting .tec files to .jpg format. I have no idea if they work or are safe to install and execute.

do you use your phone for work? are there any security apps installed?

Could be something extremely common like forgetting about my slide down to mute option on my volume adjusted. Anyway out of the blue, my drops app - used for Spanish words trainning - has vibrarted a few itmes, on that subject.

Dose anyone have some knowledge of the Set Edit app, I would love to have my entire cell phone on no vibration what so ever..

i can use that, and i DID use that... but why cant i use the built in android solution? why do i have to go to a manufacturers solution when there is an OS solution that should work, and has worked, and im familar with?

Click to expand...

I assume you mean the Google solution? I can't really comment about that, as no Android devices I've got have it, except as an optional install, and so I've never seen or used it. Also I'd never want to use any device data transfer solutions that depend on the cloud.

ok i got it figured out. it turned out the phone number i was given got 4 texts from the same person and my phone was trying to put them into the messages and i had to have metro reset that number to let the texts thru to the phone so i could listen to them and then delete them and block that number that sent them, what a procedure that was. so after metro reset the number and the texts came thru i was able to actually set up the voice mailbox. metro told me because i did not have the voice mail set up and then calls went into voice mail it got frozen,

anyway now i have the voice mail set and can see them and block the number from the previous use of this number i have now.

THANK YOU! That was NOT an intuitive setting to find.

I've been trying Windscribe (free). Data allowance is 10GB a month for free, and it works in China no problems.

If you're able to, I think it's high time to root it, and run a custom ROM. I will say up front that no community camera app is as good as the one from the factory ROM. But I can also say that I've never even seen such an error pop up in my time owning my us996 v20, and I got mine secondhand to boot.

Click to expand...

Okay, I'm willing to consider this... I've never rooted an Android phone before; I never really had any reason to bother with it, and I prefered my phone to be reliable, and not easily hackable... but at this point, my options are limited, and I *was* a firmware engineer in my previous career ...

So... can @codezer0 or anyone else point us to a guide for rooting the device, and info on available options for ROMs for the LG V20 ?? I previously looked into rooting my previous Galaxy S5, but they had hooks in it to confound that effort... I don't know what the LG options are...

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

Click to expand...

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.

If you drag the notification bar down you will find out what it is.

I don't have access to her phone

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.
