Think I am hacked

Please help me how to recover my Redmi Note 5 Smartphone as it was recently lost. I used the find my device service service and left a message for the stealer. The stealer seemed not to use my phone and remove his sim card from my phone. Now, it's impossible to track him. Moreover, I can't disable the screenlock remotely that he can use my phone and can be caught red handed. Please help me with my IMEI No.


I think the best you can hope for is to report the phone stolen to your carrier so the imei can be blacklisted. That would prevent anyone from using it as a phone. It's most likely already been wiped and sold. You should change all your passwords, though. And enable two-factor authentication on your accounts just to be safe.

Upgade Redmi 5 motherboard to higher specs.

Well if the only difference is different amounts of storage soldered to the board then yes, you should be able to buy a new motherboard, dismantle the phone and swap boards (provided you feel competent to do this - if not you can pay someone else to do it, but if so do check the price of just buying a 64GB Redmi 5 first so you don't end up paying more to do it this way).

If there are any other spec differences between the 32GB and 64GB versions (frequency bands, displays, etc) then no, it's unlikely to work. But if the only difference is storage then I'd expect it would.

Obviously back up your data first, since you'll lose them when you change motherboards.

WifiManager::getCountryCode()

i'm trying to getCountryCode() on a WifiManager insance, i.e.

WifiManager wifiManager = (WifiManager) getSystemService (Context.WIFI_SERVICE);
wifiManager.getCountryCode();​

Although I set compileSdkVersion to 29 the compiler cannot find getCountryCode().

error: cannot find symbol
wifiManager.getCountryCode();
^
symbol: method getCountryCode()
location: variable wifiManager of type WifiManager​

This symbol should be accessible, as stated here
https://android.googlesource.com/pl...i/java/android/net/wifi/WifiManager.java#1723

Does anyone of you know, why the compiler cannot resolve getCountryCode()?
Btw: setCountryCode() can't be found either whereas getConnectionInfo() can be resolved and used.

One hint of magic - Part 2 of the interactive fiction app now available on Google Play Store!

Finally, the second Part of One hint of magic is now available on Google Play Store! :eek::D
Here’s the link:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=callandha.app
I've also added quiet a few features and settings, so go check that out!
This is an interactive text adventure story app, so you can make your own choices to alter the course of the story.
Short overview of the story:
The story is about five girls, who discover supernatural abilities like a special bond to one of the four elements. Laurel, the protagonist, also is repeatingly dreaming about a certain boy, but every time she encounters him in the dreamworld, his face looks unfocused. One day, a shady figure appears in her dreams as well, watching her from the shadows and threatening her. Laurel also encounters four other girls in the real world, who seem to have supernatural abilities just like her, though some of her friends seem closer to the darkness than Laurel might have thought at first gaze. The following days, the five girls meet up regularly and eventually find the way to a hidden school that teaches magic. But not all is as well as it seems. Laurel keeps getting into bad accidents and someday, one of her friends suddenly disappears without a trace. Is this related to the creepy shadows, that lurk around the school? Are they somehow connected to the mysterious school director? The shadows are coming… Can you keep your friends safe from them?

The whole book is parted into six parts and I’m already working on the third part now. A second book is planned as well.
Looking forward to your feedback!;)

Greetings, Callandha
