But this is Samsung: there is no deselect toggle for their keyboard (it would have been deselected on day 1 if that had been an option).

I found this to be typical with updates of Google apps.

An app like Google Play Services, which is connected to most everything in one way or another, is a constant drain on resources and a privacy nightmare.

That particular app started me on the de-Google quest for my devices.

It is excellent that you know how to get rid of the updates, because most people never even get that far.

Personally, I get rid of it before I ever use the device.

If this is not on your path, then I would suggest doing what you have already done and use it that way until the next update hopefully fixes the issue.

Depending upon what apps you use, some won't care but others may nag you to update the crAPP.

Another solution is to go to an alternative appstore, such as Uptodown (my recommendation for this) and find the newest update for Google Play Services that works correctly on your device.

Whelp, I think this thread has run its course.

The first week of the NCAA men's tournament is in the books. Round one saw a number of upsets and round two had it's share as well. There are sixteen teams left and after this week's play there will be four teams left. Out of the 26.6 million brackets filled out at ESPN, nobody has picked all the games correctly again this year. That's how difficult they are to predict. I have picked 38 of the first 48 games right which puts me one game up in my family group and I'm in 1,506,910th place at ESPN 🤣 It's all fun stuff.

Salami; cotto salami, Swiss cheese with mustard on rye bread. My favorite sandwich treat. ( Behind a cheeseburger but that's another thread.)
Sardines; never saw boneless, skinless, headless and tailless sardines before.

Twinkies; hate them. Always have.

Y'all need to try chicken Gizzards.

ive had gizzards and livers
dont like the gizzards, that texture is just gross

ive had livers two different ways, really good and really bad

not worth the 50/50 chance for me

and sardines are just incredible
i dont know why Ocean Prince quit making the ones i liked so much

and i have tried many different kinds and almost never had any come to what i had for the time they made those

imagine sardines that didnt taste fishy

Puppykickr, if you're not sure that your Motorola is OTG compatible, download one of the OTG checker apps, from the play store.

I used one on one of my old ones once and it confirmed mine. There's a lot there and I can't remember which one I used. Try one or three to confirm and then delete.

i just use CPU Info from F-droid.
it tells you whatever you need to know about an individual device.

i do have a backup because messages reapear on old versions so like i said it's a bug again

I've now discovered something that's left me even more baffled. I've found that if I reply to my daughter's email in Thunderbird or in K9 the link in the copy it places in the sent folder is converted to clickable. It also works if I forward the email to myself - the forwarded message has a clickable link (see before and after screenshots below). Not only that but the email addresses in the To and From fields (that I've blanked in the screenshots) are converted to mailto: links.

Contrary to what I've said earlier it now appears that this behaviour is not restricted to K9 - both it and Thunderbird seem to be behaving in exactly the same way.

Make what you can of that . Once again any insights gratefully received.

I've dry consumed my pills since my youth

I liked them both.. we were blessed with great staff... until they let me in. 🤣

vBulletin or XenForo?

I always loved this...

A dried tea stain removal suggestion from the net: For dried tea stains, create a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and cold water. Apply this solution to the stain, gently blotting with a clean cloth. Repeat the process until the stain disappears, then rinse with cold water and allow to dry completely.

Yep, RF burns heal very slowly and they hurt the whole time they're doing it. Lesson learned: don't touch the business end during transmission!

They should be challenged. It is not only hugely inconvenient for a person to have to obtain another instrument of payment such as a money order or cashier's check. There is also the added charge for said instrument, which may go up to several dollars. Considering how much hot water this corporation is in, how many customers they have lost, how badly they mistreat their own employees, etc., they should tread carefully. They might actually be in danger of going out of business.

believe me when i say that in the long run you are much better off buying a shipping container and using that instead of a storage facility

also keep in mind that you cant take any of your stuff with you when you pass anyway

this is coming from a screwup that has lost most everything over and over

keep in mind that there are no viruses on android

malware, backdoors, yes, but no viruses

i barely use voicemail myself, so take that in mind with whatever i think up here

have you called your voicemail and gone through all of the settings there?

also, during one or more of my bloatware/google purges, i seem to remember an app or apps related to video voicemail.

perhaps you could use the Shizuku & Canta method to eliminate the app(s) altogether and leave your device no choice but to do your bidding

Anyone here read/interpret .php log-in scripts ?
A place I Admin is having major attacks, different areas are being hit on and I even caught a Brute Force attempt !
There is obvious signs that someone is inside, such as my full Admin access was restricted, after I started banning suspected IP addresses. (It was restored by the owner who claims he did not do it and he is the Super Administrator)
The owner is looking the other way and does not want to believe the site is compromised.

I am not sure I am interpreting this one correctly, can someone tell me if this is a legit command on a message board or a hack to get in ?

i use duckduckgo as a search engine, but i hate their app.

its slow and clunky.

other than deleting certain but not individual cookies and other info, i dont know of any way to actally go into the actual app data and pick and choose what you want rid of.

some file managers allow me to view these files, but i dont know exactly what i am looking at and i cannot modify them because i am not rooted

even if i was, i still wouldnt know what i was looking at.

Thank you olbriar. I've made to the two Settings changes.

FM band modulation always swings the wattage up.

I used to talk alot of skip on the flat side of my beam. I used a 100 watt digital linear and on side-band and the flat side it would go a long way !

Yeah who would have thought that anything could replace that feeling .... And then came the internet !

Hy- Gain DSB, (double side band/upper and lower), with the clarifier modded to slide, as well as the dial up oscillator box, I could hit alot outside of the 27MHz band.

There was (and may still be) a CB magazine named S9. It had monthly listings of those caught exceeding the limits of radio boundaries set by the FCC.

I had a copy that had my name on the list, for years, but living like a gypsy it has gotten lost.

I had 2 agents from the FCC show up at my door one day and want to see my station .... Got me a 50 dollar fine for operating illegal power and operating on illegal frequencies ...

Lost the magazine but still have pics of the station. Oh and I still have my memories, but those are subject to retention, dependent on how much older I get !

That all was over 50 years ago !

well i have done so lol

Thanks for all your replies and advice. The thing that resolved the mp3 problem was that I deleted all the mp3 files on my SD card and transferred fresh mp3s back onto that card. I also transferred files onto my phones internal storage. Result was that both storage locations played music with no dropout or similar. So, problem solved. Thanks
