Corrupted photo dates HELP

But keep in mind that most photos have things like creation date, modification date, access date info buried in their metadata. Depending on what that lockpix app did to your photos, if all those dates are altered
The OP implied that the EXIF dates are correct, but he's unable to edit them with anything he's tried. So I ran with that! :)

Will the apps you suggested automate the process? I know I wouldn't have the patience to do 368 files manually, one at a time! :o

DESCRIPTION
Children's doctor - we all love when people around us smile. We become well and happy when someone on the street gives us a smile. But for a smile to be beautiful, you need to take good care of your teeth. This applies to your pets, because in childhood they were for every kid. Like people, they also sometimes need to treat their teeth. This can be done by a special doctor - dentist.
We present to your attention an exciting game for children - a dentist (vet clinic).
In this entertaining game, your child is a real dentist, under the guidance of which there is a hospital for animals. The kid is entrusted with a very important and responsible task - the treatment of teeth of his four-footed pups, whose teeth began to ache heavily because of their love for sweets.

You have to treat them in a real dental office, use various medical instruments, such as tongs, scalpels, Burmashin and many others, to clean your four-legged friends of teeth from plaque, align them, do operations, remove cavities and fill them. After all, they all just need your help. For her, the animals will be grateful to you and very grateful.

Developing games for children, such as a veterinarian, contribute to the overall development of your child. They help to develop fine motor skills, coordination of movements, visual perception, attentiveness and observation, will show the baby how to treat animals, take care of them.

Our games for kids, such as a dentist, will teach them not only to treat their pets with love and care, but also to protect their own teeth, do not forget to clean them several times a day, because going to the dentist is not the most pleasant pastime.

For the purpose of comprehensive development of the child, we create applications and educational games for children that are aimed to help boys and girls develop basic motor and other skills, and also have fun, fun and useful to spend their free time.

Independent Survey Finds HTC 10 Has Best Battery Life

My wife's 10, lightly used, still has very good battery life.

It's slightly bigger than I like, but whenever I pick it up I love the build of it - it really makes my Pixel 2 feel like a cheap toy.

(Mind you I dug my M7 out last week, and have to say that if HTC want to re-enter the smartphone market they can just reissue that with modern internals - I'd buy it in a blink).

Help S20 Ultra Going Berserk!

So, quick update:

Did a full FDR yesterday, and took the rest of the day on and off reinstalling all of my apps and files and doing all of my customizations (I do a lot of that, so setting my phone always takes a long time!). So far, so good. Still adding apps or reconnecting with Bluetooth devices and whatnot. We'll see how it goes.

I might still contact Verizon about it, just so I've opened a case and given them a heads-up. If it ever happens again (hopefully not!), I can say that it first happened less than a month into owning the device, and have the service ticket to back it up.

Thank you again for the help... if anything changes, I'll keep you updated!

Thank you. I've done that.

Wifi Authentication Problem

So support for CyanogenMod has been discontinued, which version is your Galaxy Alpha running?
Could you be more specific about your WiFi problems?

If it's just not some configuration/set up matter, some other more extreme options are to move on to Lineage, but I don't know how well Alpha phones are supported so that may or may not be a fix for your WiFi issues, whatever they are:
https://www.cyanogenmods.org/forums/topic/download-lineage-os-16-for-galaxy-alpha/
or just re-flash your phone with a stock Samsung ROM, which would return your Alpha to its original, non-rooted state with a stock Recovery. But a stock ROM will assure all your phone's hardware has its corresponding drivers and firmware to function properly, along with all the necessary software.

How do you get androidx to work?

How do you get androidx to work?

I've recently picked up mobile programming again and it seems kotlin is now the one being used?

Anyway, i've looked up some tutorials and i'm having some issues.

One of the tutorials is on handling rotations and to save the previous settings, it uses

val pref=PreferenceManager.getDefaultSharedPreferences(context).edit()

I get a deprecated warning, and apparently you're now supposed to use androidx, but when i tried it, it doesn't show up (see first pic).

I tried looking up other tutorials on how you install it and you're supposed to use a checkbox at the splash screen, but that's not on my screen either (see second pic).

So what are you supposed to do?

I've been at this for two days and pretty much every tutorial, (even the ones on getting started) that comes up in the search and each of them just assumes, androidx is already working. Any help would be appreciated.

Replacing Android OS on Samsung Galaxy S20

Where are you? A European Exynos S20 will probably be bootloader unlockable, but I don't know whether that's been done yet. A US Snapdragon S20 almost certainly won't be. So if you are in North America you should decide which is more important to you, the s20 or Graphene, because it's extremely unlikely you can have both.

Yes, the Samsung has a proprietary camera app. Very much so. I'm not a Samsung expert but I'll be surprised if you can make the Samsung camera app work on Graphene. Manufacturers who modify the OS heavily usually make their own apps depend on their modified framework, and installing a different ROM will of course remove all of that.

The "One UI" is part of Samsung's OS build. That will also go if you install Graphene.

Do you know whether anyone has actually built Graphene for the S20 yet? It's obviously not one of the officially supported devices, but not owning an S20 I've not kept up with what, if any, ROMs exist for it at present - there are however no development threads for it at all over at XDA, which isn't promising, though someone has posted instructions for rooting the Exynos s20+ with Magisk (which is just rooting the Samsung ROM, not replacing the OS).

(Sorry if the post is making presumptions when I assume that you are not planning on building Graphene yourself. I'm just assuming that someone with the knowledge to be able to do that would not be asking some of these questions).

Login Demo - Programming Newbie

I am trying to create a small Android login app using the following code:

package com.example.logindemo;

import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;

import androidx.appcompat.app.AppCompatActivity;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

private EditText Name;
private EditText Password;
private TextView Info;
private Button Login;
private int counter=5;
private TextView Alert;

@override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

Name=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.etName);
Password=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.etPassword);
Info=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvInfo);
Login=(Button)findViewById(R.id.btnLogin);
Alert=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tvAlert);

Info.setText("No. of attempts remaining: 5");

Login.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
@override
public void onClick(View view){
validate(Name.getText().toString(),Password.getText().toString());
}
});
}
private void validate(String userName, String userPassword){
Alert.setText(userName + " - " + userPassword);
if((userName=="admin") && (userPassword=="1234")){
Intent intent=new Intent(MainActivity.this,SecondActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}else{
counter--;
Info.setText("No. of attempts remaining: " + String.valueOf(counter));
if(counter==0){
Login.setEnabled(false);
}
}
}
}

The problem is when I enter "admin" as the username & "1234" as the password, I don't get logged in & instead the counter gets decremented by 1. Where am I going wrong?

Thanks
