USB type c charging cable

As long as you are using it for charging and not data transfer, I'm with Augie... they will all do the job. For use in an auto, I like charging cables that are coiled like an old phone receiver for ease of storage.
Doing a quick search on Amazon and found the cable I'm speaking of but could only find it sold in a set of two.

Totally dead screen, need data recovery?!

look into SCRCPY if your already on a wifi and think you might have Enabled adb over TCP/IP on your device if so you may be able to mirror USB C to USB A then switch to wireless mirroring with ur pc.. I got all the steps completed with just a tiny bit of the corner of my screen that was fine + a mouse with usbc adapter.. defiantly no chance if u dont have TCP/IP already enabled its in an impossible spot to do 100% blind

Tetrd stopped working after windows update KB5032189

I didn't know that, good call. I didn't have, but now I do, reinstalled both app and server with fresh installs, and it works again. The old versions worked right until I did the Windows update, then wouldn't work afterwards. Some conflict between the old server version and the updated Win sys that wasn't an issue before? Sounds plausible.

Thanks man, I don't care how it works, just that it works.

Android 13 OEM unlock / bootloader unlock

I think there is a linguistic confusion here. It sounds like you are describing how to boot into the bootloader/fastboot mode in order to unlock the phone (using "fastboot oem unlock"), but that's not the same as "unlocking the feature".

OEM unlocking is a feature that can be found in the developer options menu on phones that have it at all. You need to enable it there before you can use it. You can reveal the developer options menu by repeatedly tapping the "build number" in the phone's software information. If your phone does not have an OEM unlocking option in developer options there is no trick to enable it. I'm saying this clearly because talking about "unlocking this feature" makes it sound like a hack to enable unlocking in phones which do not have it supported by the manufacturer, and I wouldn't want to waste the time of anyone who read it that way.

Samsung M51GPS issues

maybe try this:

it might help get a better gps lock. i would use this app first before starting your walk.

do you have samsung health? i use that when i go for a walk. it is great as it will actually track my path and give me stats about my walk.
Actually I'm a distance runner and use a Stryd chip for distance when running, but it isn't suitable for walking. I just use my phone GPS to see how far I am walking the dog. I do get a GPS map when running also, but that is just cosmetic since I get distance from Stryd. It is just that I notice that the quality of the map (from Garmin GPS) has deteriorated badly over the last month, as well as any GPS maps produced by my phone. I don't see how both devices, phone and Garmin, could have developed an issue at the same time.

Need help with hidden menu

You have texts in your call log? That's not something I've ever seen (and I've used every Android version since 2.1 apart from 6.0 which I skipped over). I guess this might be a carrier-specific software modification, or maybe something a particular manufacturer does, but it does make it harder to figure out what's happening.

But why would he be adding your name to an RCS chat with someone he doesn't want you to know you are chatting to? And if you have RCS you'd see the messages if he did that, whereas if you don't why would anything appear on your phone at all (unless the message app reverted to SMS, in which case you'd get the messages). Why do you think this is what's happening?
I want to move on but need proof to do so
No, you don't. If you want to move on that's enough.

Help What app notification icon is this?

I'm sorry for any confusion, but as a text-based AI developed by OpenAI, I don't have the capability to display or recognize images, including app notification icons. If you have a description or details about the icon, I might be able to help you identify it or provide information related to it. Alternatively, you can check your device's notification settings or consult the documentation of the specific app to identify its notification icon.

The middle east

Here's something encouraging:

Excerpt from "eSIMs: How Gaza got Vital Connectivity during Communications Blackout" by Rabia Al:

The [Gaza Strip] communications breakdown left over 2 million people isolated, without any contact with each other and the outside world.
Mirna and her sister Yara El Helbawi were among activists around the world who were searching for ways to help restore communications for Palestinians in Gaza. [...] The Helbawi sisters then thought of roaming services. They started with two eSIMs bought from Europe and sent them to two people they knew in Gaza. “Once we confirmed it’s working, we started to call (to check) if some more people would like to get people connected through eSIMs,” Yara told Anadolu in a video call. In just 24 to 48 hours, the sisters received more than 2,000 eSIMs as donations, and they have so far been able to provide more than 1,000 to people in Gaza.

I'm embarrassed that we didn't think of that. But the important thing is: People out there have figured out how to help civilians, who are caught in the crossfire of this war, maintain their phone and internet lines. During a disaster (man-made or natural): Phone and internet lines are vital tools to save lives!
