Alarm Not Working After Update

Are you using this alarm app or just the included alarm function? If the app, you might want to make sure the developer tested it with Android 10. Tou might also try going into settings>apps and clearing the data and cache for the alarm. Keep in mind that will clear all your settings and you'll have to reset your alarms.

Worst case would be a factory reset. After a major upgrade that's a good idea anyway.

Help Google Drive sync issues on OnePlus 5

My father owns a OnePlus 5 (on the latest OS available for the device.) For the last few months (even before he updated to Android 10), he's had problems uploading and syncing (via FolderSync) on Google Drive (also the latest version because of auto-update.) Intermittently whenever he would upload files on Google Drive, he'd see 'Waiting to Upload' on the files but they'd never upload. This problem has persisted on at least two Wi-Fi and two mobile network connections.

The odd thing is that the issue is specific only to a sub-folder within Drive. If he tries to upload to the main Drive directory, the upload happens instantly.

FolderSync works only if I manually sync it. Auto-sync whether instantaneous or every 15 minutes does not work.

I've done the following things to try to repair this issue:

  1. Force stopped the app and restarted my phone. (many times)

  2. Disabled uploading only while on Wi-Fi.

  3. Logged in and out of the app.

  4. Cleared app cache and data.

  5. Disabled (can't uninstall the app) and enabled the app.

  6. Cleared my mobile cache in OnePlus: https://www.hardreset.info/devices/oneplus/oneplus-6/wipe-cache/

  7. Disable power-saving and data-optimization for the app.

  8. Granted all permissions to the app.
None of these things have worked or made the situation any better. I contacted Google Drive support and they said that if you can upload files without any issues then the problem is with the phone.

I contact OnePlus and the phone cache reset is what they advised. It didn't work and now they've asked me to go to a service centre which I don't want to because it is far away from my house.

Help offline gps app for trail riding in middle of woods

I hope this is an okay to ask about. We recently signed onto a private land lease and have access to a small hunting cabin in the middle of 10000 acres that has numerous trails we can ride our atv on. There is absolutely no cell service in the area. We've ridden with some others that have area also on the leas and got to see some of the main trails. I'm wondering if there is a basic app that I can put on my cell phone using GPS that I can "ping" our cabin so if we can try to venture out on more trails and not get lost/turned around... so I can at least look at my phone to know we are going in the right direction to head back.... or even retrace/backtrack the trails. There are so many turns/trails to take, many just leading eventually to a dead end/ gas well, etc.
Thanks for any thoughts/suggestions.
I use All Trails (hiking app) that allows me to download maps for offline use. I'm not sure it will work in your specific case as the trails you are riding would need to be in the DB, but it is worth a shot. If it can get you to / from a known location where you can find your cabin but find new trails it may work out.
