Where's my phone?

This is unlikely to work.

Why do you say that?
That is how I set up my devices now- I put the apps (apks) I place on all devices onto an SD card, and the first thing I do is install NoRoot Firewall and block everything until I have installed everything else.

This prevents the device from downloading tons of crap like they do when you first get them and turn them on- they can't wait for you to connect to the internet so that all that worthless junk gets downloaded onto the device.

Help Help making an image of the "hard drive" of a phone

Why did you cd to the phone's mount point before issuing the adb command? If the command was successful the phone would reboot into recovery mode and that directory would not be available. I doubt that would be the cause of this problem, but to be sure try again without the cd.

I'd start at the beginning though: the first adb command should be "adb devices". That will tell you whether you have a connection at all. If not then fix that first: check the cable, that USB debugging is enabled on the phone, that the computer is authorised for adb by the phone (probably not relevant if you are running android 4), etc.

But recovery mode won't get you fastboot: you want adb reboot fastboot for that.

(Consider yourself lucky you have a palaeolithic version of Android here: with a newer device the storage would be encrypted and so you would have no hope with this method).

Is there a device for hdmi & charge?

i dont think an Android smartphone like this exists or a cable that can do this. if you want to access multimedia on your tv use a chromecast or a ps4 on sale. I personally use my ps4 for all my Netflix viewing and youtube surfing

AFAICT there's certainly no universal one-for-all cable or adapter that exists, but a couple of manufacturers make adapters for their own devices, e.g. Samsung DeX and Huawei MateDock. And I have used both.

Help Is my phone behaving similar to proximity cards?

well i think most folks here would not know the science behind how NFC works. i have no idea how it works.

i did find this:https://squareup.com/us/en/townsquare/nfc

in the article nfc uses encryption to communicate, so those numbers you see are part of the encryption and who knows what they represent.

Hello, never mind. I have asked in other Samsung forum also. I know how NFC actually works. The question is really why the phone is generating those numbers without my permission.

If I finally develop an application to send person's DNI, phone will also send those random number, which of course will affect my application.

P6P and S21 Ultra????

Pixel 6 Pro is better than the S21 Ultra as the P6P has an LTPO display which is new and great compared to Dynamic display if S21 Ultra which is old. The P6P and S21 Ultra specs are almost 98% the same but S21 has Snapdragon 888 which is a little higher than the new Google tensor chip but with new updates, P6P will be better! Also, P6P has the new unique design that is attractive than the S21 Ultra.

Chromecast on hotel wifi.

If your hotel TV is a smart TV I'd just use the integrated TV apps, setting up your own Chromecast onto a public WiFi network is a security and a privacy nightmare. You'll be intentionally adding your Chromecast to open access on an unsecured network. Think back to when you needed to first set up your Chromecast, it has its own unsecured mini-web server that you temporarily access to then pair up the device to your home network. It's the pairing up/connection process that's going to be a problem. Then it's a matter of having your Chromecast connected to an unsecured public WiFi network, a much different environment than your presumably secured home network.

If you travel a lot, it might be worth investing in a portable router/hotspot device. Then instead of relying upon risky public WiFi services you'll always have your own personal, mobile WiFi network. You can setup your portable WiFi network at home and configure whatever mobile devices you'll be bringing with you so everything is already set up to use.

Help US S10+ sold in UK network issues

I have 2 very good spec Xiaomi phones from late 2019 running on EE (I swap sim).

They've had some tremendous weekly discounts on their website Mi. com all year, though I think that may be coming to an end as they are so popular here.

Nothing negative to report on the software or hardware front. Ads can removed, as well as unwanted 3rd party apps, and I just don't register their own apps, though there's nothing wrong with them.

Xiaomi brand models were : Redmi & Redmi Note Series, Poco and top line Mi models.
Latest Mi models rebranded as Xiaomi (11t / 11t pro) and anything named Xiaomi are guaranteed long term updates similar to Samsung.

Poco have been made a separate brand, of sorts.

I have a Poco F2 Pro (256/8) and a Mi 10 Lite 5g.

Worth looking in to.

could a bad power strip cause problem to the mobile device?

Simply because that power strip looks OK physically on the outside, that has absolutely nothing to do with if it is or is not damaged in some way inside. The odds are just falling off a table a few times isn't going to do much, there are no moving parts or delicate components inside. It's not a big deal for a more tech savvy person to confirm if that power strip is fine or not, but since you appear to have doubts about it, instead of aggravating yourself so much just buy a new one and replace it. Life is too short to fixate on such minor details.

I'm not fixating on such minor things, I'm just lacking in technical knowledge and yes life is short but you don't just do one thing and wait for it to settle and then move on.
