How To How to Screen Record

Wow, I didn't know I could actually record the screen of my phone with so many options (especially this one: Media sounds/Media sounds and mic). I thought that I can do something like that only if I record my pc screen. By the way, I used to do that when I was playing csgo with my buddies and posting these videos on youtube. If someone wants to find out how to do that on pc read the info on this site.

Voice notes

I found that Samsung has the Samsung Voice Recorder. It works fairly simply, although there is no simple way to transfer the MP4 files to the computer because the newer Androids apparently no longer support MSC (mass storage class, that is generic file system connection), only MTP/PTP (media transfer protocol). But that got me halfway there.

Android phone setup and Google sign-in

HI. So Sigining into Google Playstore (in 2015 with Android 4.0 or 5.0) .. did sign into all google accounts??
Wow...i really dont remember that occurring...
I recall signing into google play and then still having to sign into google drive and google photos etc..

Back then, many apps would work without Services installed on the device.

Also, if you ever go to individual Google 'apps' via your browser for the first time, without being signed in to Google with that browser- same thing.

Problem with Uber app

its more likely a problem with the app on your phone and not the phone itself. there really is not much else you can do, other then wait for uber's dev team to contact you. its most likely that there is an issue within the app that is not working specifically with your phone. not all phones are the same, so devs have to adjust the app specifically to each phone out there, so there just maybe only issue with your specific phone model.

Help Pawnshop

i'm a tad confused. what do you mean by "mailbox"? are you saying after the hard reset your facebook account was still live? if so then you did not perform the hard reset correctly. just do a factory reset within your phone's settings. it will return to the phone as new and you should be fine. all of your stored passwords will be wiped clean so you do not have to worry about those.

Help Firewall app for Android 4.4.2 - Solved

I found a newer custom ROM. CM11. I found 3 versions of that for my device and all were flashed normally. One of them is the same as my device which is Android 4.4.2 and the firewall did not work well on it either. It was the same as on the stock ROM. Nothing newer is available for this device.

The others were 4.4.4 and the firewall worked perfectly on it. I used the latest compatible AFWall+ on it which is 2.9.9 .

In conclusion. Firewall apps do not seem to operate well on Android that is older than 4.4.4 .

Help Issue in flashing TWRP

Do you mean I flash the firmware t by Odin then flash twrp with pit file or flash the twrp with pit file then flash the Rom by the twrp? My current status is twrp with no OS

So currently, your phone only has a working Recovery (TWRP) and with the partition table wiped there's no Android OS. You need to flash both the PIT file and the ROM. Both are necessary items -- with the partition table wiped, you need that PIT file, and without the PIT you need to flash the stock ROM to get a working Android OS on your phone again.
Focus on getting your phone is working again, and once that's all done, then look into flashing TWRP and rooting it again.
Be very mindful about all the settings and check boxes in the Odin utility.

Teams notifications

Hmm, I guess you could turn off "other" and see what happens. My guess is that it won't affect anything important (i.e. anything that fits those other categories).

The real problem will be if these things are Android System notifications, as your first post suggested, since it probably won't let you hide all notifications from that. On my phone there are many, many categories of notification under that one, so I wonder why it shows nothing for yours?

If nothing else works I'd be inclined to try turning Teams notifications off and see whether that makes any difference (it may not if Teams is causing something else to generate the warnings). Then sure, I'd be inclined to make it their problem: leave it on their desk for them to experience and tell them you'll take it back when they've fixed it, not before, and meanwhile inform your manager that IT have screwed your phone up and so you'll be without it until they sort it out. But as an academic I may have a bit more autonomy in such things than some employers would allow.
