I did it! Thx everyone so much for trouble shooting me through this. What I did was go to the developer settings and looked at running apps. I uninstalled 2 apps. Hope I didn't need the first one. The second one was called online plus. As soon I stopped it the news ad stopped showing.

Stop trying to charge the phone with your PC.

That is a very slow charge, that can barely build a charge if the phone is on.

Try using a wall charger.

Look at the mAh of the charge rate in your battery settings while it is charging.
If your device does not have this option, then get an app that does show this information.

While looking at this mAh number, change out your cords, trying each one of them.
This will let you see which ones are good and which ones are not.

CpuFloat is an excellent ad-free app for this.

Ampere (has ads) is another app that works as well.

You don't really need to be. You've got a counterfeit phone, and a rather cheapo one as well. And these are often very poor quality. There's really nothing you can do with the thing, as there's usually no support information for fake products. And really only thing you can do is see about returning it for a refund.

If it had been a real Huawei nova 5 Pro, and not a cheap knock-off. It probably wouldn't have crapped out on you, and manufacturer support wouldn't have been a problem.

Hi,

Thanks for the info.

I did get a refund for it and they didn't ask for it to be returned. And didn't actually fail/crap-out as you put it.
I simply just did a factory reset, as I mucked about with too many settings without knowing what they were for. And it didn't have the 'Mount System' option in the list where the Format and ADB options are..

I just bought another cos it is a good phone and less than £50, regardless of it being a fake clone of Huawei Nova 5, and I'm gonna see if I can simply use ADB to pull drivers off the working nowa5 , and sideload into the other.
I'm a complete novice to Android and Linux OS's, and letting me know about it being Linux has helped loads. Thanks.

I'm autistic, and enjoy learning and fixing things. So I see this as a fun little project.🤪

This normally only happens when you have your phone on or near your wallet or purse as it picks up your contact less cards. If this is not the case and it is randomly happening try restarting your phone or switching NFC off in the menu shade. (Pull down from the top of the screen)

I searched and searched and finally found this lol...I do have a wallet pop case and my Santander card was causing the issue. Its kinda dumb as it never happened before the update. Thanks!!

Maybe this will be of some help

Microsoft cloud storage but have you considered downloading whats important to you and then deleting you account and uninstalling all Microsoft apps. Then change the rest of your passwords on your other accounts. Then you can choose a cload storage that provide 2 step verification and better security. If you have developer option enabled make sure usb debugging is turned off.
I would also recommend a factory reset but you will need your Google account password or youll be lock out of you android (FRP). I suggest writing the new password down on paper. It might be hard to remember the new recently changed password.

when I call in and enter my secret pin number to retrieve my messages, the message center simply does not respond to the tones created.
This is specific to MetroPCS, and this phone, (An LG V30) because I called another message service and the tones created by my keypad worked fine.
Also, when I used another phone, I was able to retrieve my messages using the tones created by my friend's phone.
Anyone know about this , or maybe have any advice?
So far I:
- Got MetroPCS to reset my voicemail. (Had to create a new greeting, and pin)
- Restarted the phone twice
- Turned on "Keypad sounds" to make sure the phone itself was generating the tones (It was)

No idea what's going on.Thanks!

What do you mean "personal weather station"? is that a device you've got or something?

I had a look at Weather Underground, but it was insisting that I was in San Francisco(wrong!), and would only show weather for places in the US.

I can't say what you have available in China, Mike. In the USA, there of thousands of personal weather stations that can and most are linked to Weather Underground. My weather station is made by Ambient Weather. I have it tied to WU so that I can check the weather here at my house when I'm working out of town. Olbriar's Place is the name of my station if you have a desire to see if it's raining here or not

Greetings to all the kind souls who made suggestions regarding my post concerning my micro-sd problems. after several tries (replacing the card not recognized exchangig it with another typr 46 GB etc... ) which produced mixed results = cards detected once but after shutting down my phone not being recognized with either card -I finally took it to the computer place where I bought it and the conclusion was (alas!!) rapid: the "drawer" which houses the micro-card was out of commission. Their solution was to repair it ... but at a cost of over the equivalent of $ 150 definitely not woth it!! si I made the decision to go back and use the 32 Gb card which came with the phone, which is sufficient for my current use I make of it.
Thought I'd let you know. Thus, I just wish to clos the thread but not before thanking all of you for all your efforts on my behalf, your help and the time you spent, much appreciated

But why does when i charge it the red light shows but wont turn on it blink off and on is it just being dead

My guess is its likely to hold enough of a charge to blink the indicator but not enough to be able to boot the tablet. On my Galaxy Note 4 n910p the red blinking notification begines at 15%.
I have to conker with my friend Mr Dannydet. Youd be much better of buying another tablet. A 10 yr old tablet would be running Android 2.2 Froyo or simply called API 8. My old Galaxy Note 4 released in 2014 is now on Marshmallow 6.0.1 API 23.

I want to connect my phone to the the tv via HDMI cable. I searched online and found an adapter that explictly mentioned being compatible my phone:

"Compatible With LG X venture."
http://www.pacific-parts.com/lg-x-venture-hdmi-converter.html

I ordered the adapter but it doesn't work. I searched and found that my phone is not MHL compliant. A website notes:

"MHL support is a hardware specification on your mobile device, and it cannot be resolved by applying updates of any type."
https://www.startech.com/faq/mhl_compliance

Which website is correct? Is MHL compatibility necessary to connect a phone to tv with HDMI cables?

I'm glad you got it figured out, @RASelkirk, and posting its solution was very thoughtful. It will likely help someone else who comes along later with a similar problem.

Thanks. But I have tried it and it does not do what I want. I want the ability to have SMS read 24/7, not only in auto, but in office, sleeping in case of text emergencies, etc. I use it to alert me of work assignments I may receive via text, then I know if the test is work related or personal. And I can respond much faster if I can hear what the order or assigment is.

Given that the PC could read the SD card when the computer was attached meant it wasn't encrypted. So I went ahead and ran Smart Switch and it had text assuring me it wouldn't duplicate e-mail messages and the like already installed on the Note 10+. it worked fine. I then put the SD card in the Note without formatting and photos, documents, and music are there. All is well. I was, as ocnbrze appropriately affirmed, overthinking it. I guess I've just had too much experience with software that creates unintended problems

I'm not sure what the protocol or implications are for marking a best answer. Since Hadron's had a summary of what's been said about the encryption and duplication concerns, I thought it might be the most useful place for someone with the same problem to look so I marked it. In reality, everyone's thoughts were very helpful to reaching the conclusion and are very appreciated. Thanks much for both your time and thoughts!

I am wondering if anyone here knows whether ImageAnalysis.ImageReaderMode.ACQUIRE_LAST_IMAGE mode works with TheardPool/Executor if I were to define one with .setBackgroundExecutor().

I am trying to do image analysis, and I would want to perfom that on a bunch of recent image frames on multiple thread.

ChaunceyK · Jan 7, 2020

Well, that is disappointing, given the price. But the Walmart Family version specifically says it uses the T-Mobile network, and its what I bought last time 3 years ago when I got the Samsung Galaxy On5 without any issues.

This was on "Prompt Me" and I changed it to "Send As MMS" and it seems to work now.

THEMID · Jan 7, 2020

Anybody else use Drivesafe.ly for reading sms or emails? I have used it for 4 years now and it is the best - It does not work with the release of 10.0 - And they are not responding my requests for assitance.

Does anybody have any other apps that can read out loud texts? And is lightweight?

THanks.

I am trying to modify the Android project found here: https://github.com/googlecodelabs/tensorflow-for-poets-2/tree/master/android/tflite

I have already included my neural network as .lite file (TensorFlow Lite), it works rather good, but it is neccessary for me to place a button on the view to capture an image and to do more accurate prediction.

There is a great blog regarding this problem. It's here: https://www.inovex.de/blog/tensorflow-mobile-android-app/. But author explain here how to do it in app where .pb model is used (TensorFlow Mobile). He works with this repo: https://github.com/googlecodelabs/tensorflow-for-poets-2/tree/master/android/tfmobile. I would like to modify my app accurately like this example. Unfortunately, I can't ask him in a blog comment!

I am trying to understand it... Please, help me, thank you in advance!

Those particular fighters are seldom seen in Downtown Crossing. You may encounter some once you enter Back Bay.

The thing about the Canadian coat is that it had a feature I had never encountered before or since.
