Nokia 3.1c can no longer view videos after

A few weeks ago, I received a typical 'cricket' update for my Nokia 3.1c phone. After obliging to this non negotiable update, I found that my device could no longer play videos, display notifications, or play most audio through the speakers. In more recent times, notifications show and their respective sounds show about half of the time- and I have found that, while having Bluetooth earbuds connected to my phone, I am able to watch videos and hear audio perfectly fine. However, without the assistance of the earbuds, videos remain frozen upon being loaded. I don't know what this cricket update has done, but it's made this phone a lot less useful. Anyone know what's wrong?

Graphical signature possible for Outlook on Android?

Here's a way that works on my phone (not necessarily "easy" depending on your skill level, but it's a way):



Tested and working on:

Samsung Galaxy S8, Android 9, Outlook for Android 4.0.57 (367)





Method 1 - Embedded image (using Base64 encoding)

----------

Go to https://www.base64-image.de/

Upload your logo to convert to Base64 format.

Copy the code in to an email on your PC and email to your Android phone.


Copy and paste the code in to Outlook's signature box, and then add the following to the front of it


<img src='


and this at the end of it


'>


The apostrophe's are important that they're the correct one's.

When I tried using the apostrophe on my Windows PC, it didn't like that one, so make sure you type it on the Android phone instead.


Note: once you've setup the sig, Outlook will turn it in to a weird coloured box if you go look directly at the signature box again.

If you need to edit your signature, you'll have to re-paste the code again to get the logo again.

Probably best to keep the email with the Base64 code in your drafts or another folder.








Method 2 - Link to image (using Base64 encoded URL)

----------

Go to https://mothereff.in/html-entities

Enter in the url to your logo

untick the box "only encode unsafe and non-ASCII characters"

highlight and copy the encoded URL

Email the encoded URL to your android phone


Copy and paste the code in to Outlook's signature box, and then add the following to the front of it


<img src="


and this at the end of it


">


The double-quotes are important that they're the correct one's.

When I tried using the double-quotes on my Windows PC, it didn't like those ones, so make sure you type it on the Android phone instead.

Note: once you've setup the sig, Outlook will turn it in to a weird coloured box if you go look directly at the signature box again.

Hi John. I thought I had tried your answer before and had gotten it working on my Samsung S9, but at some point (I have no idea when) it no longer worked. I am trying your solutions again and can't seem to get it working. For method 1, the site you give, base64-image is no longer working (been under "maintenance" for quite some time). Your second method also did not work and just put the actual text code in the signature. Any suggestions or are you able to help at all? Thank you so much.

File sconosciuti

Without a translation and with my remedial understanding of other languages, it appears that these are failed attempts at downloads.

The circular arrow at the left of each one is for retrying to download the file- but I would not hold out much hope in that.

Maybe use a better downloader, such as IDM+, and copy/paste the link to that.

Apps Checkbox to show/hide textview

Hi little_star,

1) If you need to create one or more texts to show/hide, you will need a corresponding number of TextViews

private TextView txtHelloWorld, txtAnotherText;

2) Now you need the corresponding layout references

txtHelloWorld = findViewById(R.id.txtHelloWorld);
txtAnotherText= findViewById(R.id.txtAnotherText);

3) Now what you want to achieve is that when the first text appears, the second text disappears, using a checkbox as a trigger.
You already have the function, so just add the case you need.
  1. private void updateTextVisibility(boolean isChecked) // When checking the trigger (checkbox)
  2. {
  3. if (isChecked)
  4. {
  5. txtHelloWorld.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE); // The first is visibile
  6. txtAnotherText.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE); // and the second is invisible
  7. }
  8. else
  9. {
  10. txtHelloWorld.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE);
  11. txtAnotherText.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
  12. }
  13. }
I hope I was able to help you, bye

Contacts NOT on Whatsapp - Android

I'm not really sure about this, but I think you need to create a second Cursor to filter the different types of accounts within the Cursor you made.

I think this is because the contacts in the address book can have different types: com.google is the base for everyone, but then they can have the com.whatsapp type and maybe even the com.telegram type.

That's why when you go to do the query and look for contacts that contain com.whatsapp a minority of them come up, since not all of them have that type as well, while if you look for those that are different from com.whatsapp they all come up, since all of them are at least com.google, including those that are not com.whatsapp.

I wish I could help you more than that, but I'm still quite ignorant on the subject myself.

Changing Lock Screen Time Quickly

Thanks for taking the time to write your long reply, puppykickr. Your persistence has paid off. I have installed Greenify and have set up the quick lock function with a long press on the Home button. At the same time, I've increased the "Auto lock when screen turns off" time to 30 minutes. That's the one used when I double tap the screen to turn it off.It took me a while to appreciate your suggestion. Thanks.


I am glad that it works well for you.

And remember, that is only one app solution.

Do not discount Proximity Service until you have seen the difference.
You may or may not like it even more.
You may, in fact, find both apps to be useful- possibly even for different reasons.

An added bonus is that it comes from F-Droid, which is a preferred appstore.
You can check out F-Droid and see what is offered there.

The apps there have no adware, spyware, tracking, or the other typical junk that apps on the Play Store tend to have.
