I've been getting a lot of calls from country code 0063 (Philippines), 0034 (Spain) and others.
Obviously I don't answer them, and add them to my blocked caller list. I'm wondering what the scam might be.

Does it really matter what the 'scam' is? Just block them and move on. Not worth the brain power expended on thinking about them any more than this.

Dropped or thrown @Vannessa Singleton?

I have the same problem.
No real soltion, other than to try other keyboards until you find one rhat results in the least mistakes.

I have a few that I like, but they are no frills keyboards.

One that I continue to experiment with is called Floris Board.
It is in active development, and you can resize the keys to make them easier to use.

My best one so far has been Simple Keyboard.

Others that I like are Hacker's Keyboard, Tiny Keyboard, and BeHe Keyboard.

All of these are available on F-Droid.

https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.vlath.keyboard/

Tiny keyboard requires that you to add a repository to the F-Droid app to get it. (Not a big deal, if you have the F-Droid app. Plus, there are a ton of other cool apps in there as well).
You may be able to just get it directly from GitHub.

Go to where it says 'releases', tap that, then tap 'apk-releases'.

not a dating.....move on or ask the person who owns the phone about it.

we get this almost everyday. you see there are millions upon millions of apps each with their own notification icon. so unless it is a popular app like facebook or youtube, you are most likely will not get an answer to your question.

.....good luck.

Yesterday two voice messages (I think they are called voice notes in WhatsApp) were received. Unfortunately the new 'potential' contact was blocked. This seems to have resulted in these messages being deleted at the same time. I did open (download) and hear them.

I have done the following:

(1) Went to Internal Storage > WhatsApp > Media > WhatsApp Voice Notes on the phone. There appear to be none of these deleted voice notes here. The files here are '.opus' ones.

(2) Tried some apps like Dr.Fone and EaseUS Mobi Saver for Android. I selected USB Debugging from Developer Options but these apps ask me for root access. I have no trusted software for this. In any case I suspect both these apps will ask me for payment to recover data so I am not proceeding with this course of action.

(3) There are some youtube videos for this problem but not all are in English! I think the basic line of action is to delete all the data and recover it again. I have no confidence in this course of action.

Once again it is my intention to recover only the what I believe to be deleted voice messages (WhatsApp Voice Notes) from what had been a blocked number using WhatsApp yesterday.

I have no 'Chat backup' set in WhatsApp...

I have also just downloaded Opus Player from Google Play and it does not automatically find these voice messages although it finds others - both incoming and outgoing.

This phone has been upgraded to Android 8.0.0.

Any ideas?

Thank you for sharing the link

I am creating an android application that plays a beep sound whenever it detects a pre-defined sound. In another way, I have three drum/piano/vocal sequence mp3 file with me which is stored along with the apk assets. After installation, the three files moved to the internal memory. Whenever I play any audio/video in any of the video/audio player(eg:youtube/vlc) on my mobile, if the music sequence of the playing audio matches any of the already stored three mp3 files, Then a beep sound should produce. This is my aim. But I am hard to find such a library to compare music that is playing inside the mobile with another app. Google assistant and Shazam app just listen to audio from the mic and compare the audio. But in my case, I need to compare audio which is the playing device itself.

Note: The app will be running 24X7 by listening to the sounds played on the device. This application is not intended to build an unethical product. This is used for industrial purposes.

If somebody needs more clarification, I will update the question

I'm facing similar issue , I del the file but again its automatically coming in folder and I'm unable to take backup neither transfer data to other phone

its been several days ....and looks like it stopped!

Yeh, sounds like the battery is kaput, and needs replacing.

Apple phones are so expensive. I'm totally an Android person. I like how I can get a $1500 android phone or a $30 android phone. I get the expensive ones and my kids get cheap ones. Android OS on the phone is the same between the $1500 and the $30 phone. It's consistent.

The reason why I suggest the kids have iPhones with parental controls and admin. Is because I know the Chinese communist govt totally controls and dictates what Apple allows on iPhones in China, like no VPN apps, and all games must be approved. And the only ways around it, is either to jailbreak the iPhone, or have a foreign iTunes account. Which is something they just can't do with Android phones in this country. And kids will probably defeat any parental controls on Android phones. And we have had posts about this before on AF.

OK, so I have an S7, but it's only about 2 years old.

The battery is discharging faster and faster, so I'm pretty sure it's time for a replacement.

I use a wireless USB charging cradle. Sometimes I've left the phone on there after the charge had reached 100%. I'm sure that's had something to do with the battery failing.

Is there a "smart" USB wireless cradle charger, or is that a feature only available in newer phones?

Click to expand...

It's the S7 itself that determines when charging is 100%. Basically when the front LED goes green, and the display shows 100%, charging is complete and the phone itself stops charging the battery, and won't overcharge even with the charging still connected.

Qi compatible wireless charging pads and cradles, determine if a device has been placed on them and the correct amount of power to supply to the device. But there's no way for them to determine the amount of charge in a device's battery AFAIK.

2 years for a phone battery? It all depends on how much the phone has been used of course, and YMMV. I've got a S7 here that was used daily for a year, and now very occasionally, and the battery is still good in it. Also I have a Huawei Mate10, that was used heavily for over 3 years. and the it's showing a permanent "Battery health is deteriorating" notification warning now, however I never noticed any increased discharge with it. I probably will get the Huawei battery changed, because I still use that phone as a remote control zapper for TV, Android Box and the air-con. And it no longer has a SIM in it.

This is an experience. So I just tried holding it down and it gave me the option to remove it. Phew!! Don't know how it sneaked in there but it's gone now

So you've flashed a mismatched ROM, preventing it from being able to boot up into Android itself; the TWRP Recovery/Fast Boot is apparently corrupted and also needs to be re-flashed; and apparently the USB port is problematic so you cannot even access your phone using ADB on a PC.
At this point your phone is pretty much soft-bricked. iven the street value of a Moto C Plus the phone itself pretty minimal considering its condition, and since you've already done a Factory Reset it's not a matter of needing to recover previously saved data off of it, it might be time to just consider this a learning experience (always be sure to flash only the correct, matching, corresponding ROM) and just move on. This wasn't your daily usage phone I hope, was it just a spare, secondary phone you were experimenting with?

Factory Reset Protection is a security measure to prevent people from accessing an Android device when they don't know the necessary Google account password, so it's not going to be trivial matter to bypass it. Go here and follow the instructions, just keep in mind it will result in a Factory Reset so the user data account will be wiped in the process.

1. Remove any accessories.
   Third-party protective films, cases, stickers, or glass screen protectors may block the sensor and should be removed. It is recommended to use Samsung-approved accessories only.
2. Restart the phone.
   Once you’re off the call, restart the phone by swiping down from the top of the phone with two fingers to open Quick settings. Tap the Power icon. Tap Restart, and then tap Restart again.
3. Clean the sensor with a soft cloth. the proximity sensor is located at the top of the phone, although the exact position will vary by model

I hope this will help

reinstall youtube app on the television. reset network settings of the tv. use lan cable instead of wifi.

Hello, Thank you for your reply. The program runs ok on my laptop which has Windows 10. I do not know very much about computers and expected it to run ok on the phone but I have no idea what you mean in relation to EXE OR APK.

Click to expand...

FYI programs are always made to run on a specific operating system, like a program that was made for Windows will NOT run on Android, and vice-versa. EXE or APK refers to the program's file suffix, e.g. morse-program.EXE, which would run on Windows. Files suffixed with APK will only install and run on Android. Same for file suffixes like DMG, which is for programs intended for MacOS.

I genuinely cannot think why anyone would want ads appearing like that, but each to their own.
