Help Play Store free up space issue, is there a fix?

can anyone help me? I'm trying to upload app on uptodown platform. i tried it again and again but there is an issue.
the issue is I fill all the information but when it askes me for short and long description I add that in the box but it is not added in the form means it says that you have successfully added the description but it does not show in the form and my app is not going for review its in draft kindly tell me what to do????

What is the name of the app?
Having someone else look for it may reveal that it is there as well as the description.

pictures are grayed out - cannot attach to Messages

Besides pictures, there are several folders on the SD card. I backed up the whole thing to a folder on my Windows desktop. And also used Google to backup the phone. I have an app that backs up SMS messages and call history.

I do not know what was wrong, but I reset the phone to factory settings and then the attach of pictures in Messages app worked correctly. After that, I restored from Google, from my Windows backup, and then restored SMS messages. It seems to be back to normal.

This is actually the girlfriend's phone, so I have to wait for feedback about anything that I might have overlooked.

a21 deleting calls

thanks everyone. i do not want to put another app on the phone just yet to block calls as i do not get many but i get enough that i would sure live to have the option to slide the number over then get the add to contacts or block the caller like the lg does. i did find a way to do it but only after the call has ended. but then next call i get i will try sliding the scren left right up and down to see if i get that option to block.


on more thing that someone may be able to help with. when i open the camera i get the closeup camera the right icon and the image is so large i have to move the camera way back to get a photo. so I have to select the left icon, so does anyone know how to make it so i can default to the left icon for the cameras when i open them? i do not yet see that in the settings. and when i select the left icon it never stays there, even if i have the keep setting when the camera is off.

Root Don't try to root this phone!!!

just wanted to put this out there that they have root now for the z fold 3 and apparently the camera works.

here is the guide:

i have not read all of the thread, but it does seem to work along with the camera.

edit: so this for all the non US phones that don't have a snapdragon chip and whose bootloader is not locked.

Disassembly of Phone

I would not get your hopes up too much that you'll be able to recover those photos and videos from that phone. Perhaps this pic will help you visualize the situation:
S20-mobo.jpg
The NAND flash, the internal storage chip where all your data is (was) stored, is indeed a chip soldered directly onto the logic board (upper right). It's not in a socket that you could just remove. So even if you opt to send this damaged S20 out to be repaired, depending on just how damaged this phone is, it's not going to be simple as just popping the internal storage chip out and plugging it into a spare S20 to recover your data. Even extracting the motherboard from a badly damaged phone so it's actually intact could involve a lot of billable hours so be sure to get an estimate in writing first. If you want to try this yourself, the iFixit site has a nice step-by-step guide for you to follow:

If this phone wasn't damaged too badly and the mobo is intact, don't forget that you'll still need to buy a spare S20 to cannibalize when you put your extracted logic board into it.

But offhand I'd suggest consider those photos/videos to be lost and move forward. Take this to be learning experience and be sure to set up an automatic and comprehensive backup solution. Backups are important. Samsung has a Smart Switch utility that includes a handy backup/restore feature :
