Safe to delete these?

Thanks both, as long as I'm ok to delete them. :)

I was deleting everything big enough to be listed in MB rather than KB - my phone got too crowded to update anything! I see that there's only a weekful of these backups, but it would be great to be able to choose how many. I'd set it to two or three at most.

I did go to look at the browser's cache, then remembered I'd already deleted everything's cache about half an hour before...!!

Thanks anyway, I thought that's what I was looking at but glad of the reassurance.

Annoying addition to home screen

I tried to upload two photos but they came up as an error. I have no idea what "use a different launcher" means in context with my issue. Some have said its a Samsung problem. Is there a Samsung Galaxy S10+ forum? Isn't my phone android?

A launcher is the app that you interact with the device with.

It is the app that controls what you see on the homescreen.

Simply open whatever appstore you choose, and search for 'launcher'.

S20 ultra screen burn

Hi can anyone offer advice pls
I have a s20 ultra that is displaying ghost icons from my home screen
Mainly visible on a white background
Ive had the phone for 5 months
Ive had dialogue with samsung and they arranged for a mobile engineer to come to my adress and replace the screen
On arrival i got the impression he was looking for a way out of repairing it siting miniscule marks on the edges of the frame (phone has been in a case with a screen protector since new)
He took the phone to his van but returned saying there was a crack on the screen so he couldnt do anything as the 2mm ,what i thought was a scratch, was a crack and the phones warranty was invalid because of it
So the tiny damage on the screen which has nothing whatsoever to do with the original screen burn issue has invalidated my warranty on a £1400 flagship phone
Im absolutely gutted and wondered if anyone has experienced similar?
Thank you

Trying to install TWRP but 'waiting for any device'

I gave it another go after reading good things about Lineage 14.1 (Android 7). Flashed it OK, flashed Gapps OK, installed Magisk, installed Magisk Manager, installed the banking app - failure. It spotted the non-standard ROM. It surprises me that custom ROMs appear to be so popular given how difficult it is to use normal apps on them. A new phone for me, definitely. Thanks, guys, for all your help.

Reading mmaped buffer in JNI without using fast message queue

I work in media production, and our main task is creating short animated videos. Obviously, we have a huge library of different media files. After the lockdown, some of the employees now work permanently from home, but they need online access to those files. We want everything to be organized and easy to find, so we are also looking for software that can help us with this. We also created some sort of virtual office for our organization. I should say that virtual addresses helped us a lot to organize our work on the national scale since we have offices in different states. Somehow, we do not have this mess with mails and packages.

Whoshing Sound Unwanted

You said, "you can check your notification settings and see what recent apps sent you notifications when you here the sound again." How? There is no way I know of to see what recent app sent me a notification. If I had such a mechanism it would be easy to catch the culprit. By the way, I have not installed a new app for more than a year. And do not intend to.
OK, that helps . I was taking the screen too literally when it says "Recently sent" and I think it really means "recently received" from the phone user's viewpoint. I'll home in the culprit before long. Thank you.
