Looking for a durable phone

Sunlich
ThinBlue said:
Hey, I've been tasked with picking a durable and 'rugged' phone for a relative. Budget is 320 USD, we're looking at European market.

So far I've looked over Doogee S55 and S60 and Blackview BV9000 pro.

Can't decide which of those three, or something completely different?

I think not having a USB-C is not cool these days, which is my primary concern with the S60.

Apparently, a 3.5mm Jack is mandatory (no matter how much I try to explain the opposite to the buyer)

All help is appreciated. 😉

Hi...

I have recently got myself a NOWA5PRO , duplicating masses of specs of the NOVA5PRO. 8GB RAM 128GB INTERNAL UPGRADEABLE TO 255GB add another 128tf card , and separate 2 SIM slots. 10-core processor, 13mp / 18mp front/rear cams.

Only problems ihad was resetting to factory by wiping cache and data. As long as you safeguard against , possibly geabibf it's drivers and backup. Or don't do a reset as I did.

Only cost around 50gb' pounds. I have 2 now and very nice though still to fix 1st I bought from China. .really inexpensive but not much support for this unbranded - Huawei NOVA5PRO almost duplicated.

Wish.com or eBay. Search; NOVA 5 PRO''

User Acquisition Report Problem

B
Hi!
I recently encountered a problem in Play Console. When I go to my "User acquisition" -> "Acquisition reports" of my game, At "RETAINED INSTALLERS" tab, "Play Store (organic)" of "FOR 1 DAY", "FOR 7 DAYS", ... are EXACTLY ZERO!, even though "First-time installers" shows normal numbers.
They used to be good numbers but all of them are ZERO now.

I attached screenshot of my console (that is user acquisition of Sep 2 - Sep 8) to show the problems clearly.

Do you guys have the same problem (is it maybe a Play Console bug) or is it just me?
If possible for you, please check your own Play Console profile and tell me that you have the same problem or not?

Apps Creating Maps app release version

G
I have a Maps app, which is working fine in debug mode. I've followed the steps https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/android-sdk/get-api-key to set up the project, and create the API key - the map displays as intended.

When it comes to creating the release build, I'm having no luck. Again, I've followed all the steps to get the SHA1 of my keystore, restrict the API key etc - but when I create a release build and test it, the Map doesn't display.

I've tried so many things, so may combinations of keys and restrictions, I must be missing something obvious. So if anyone can suggest anything I may be doing wrong, please do!

The only specific question I have is: Should I be using the same API key for both debug and release, or should I create one key for each version? (I've tried it both ways, and neither are working for me).

Sim Card Hot Swapping Android

mikedt
I've done quite bit of SIM hot-swapping on various phones, Huawei, Oppo and Samsung devices. Where I just eject the SIM holder and swap out SIMs, without turning the phone off, and the phones have always recognised the changed SIMs and connected to their respective networks. And any apps I use haven't had a problem with that, although my banking app can't authorise with a SIM change, because of the change of phone number.

I don't know the Zentality 720-c, but I guess it shouldn't be a problem with hot-swapping SIMs, unless the manufacturer has stated otherwise?

Battery is really bad after Pie update

If you can see whether the other person is typing that isn't SMS - it must be using RCS (and in fact you both must be, so that won't work with everyone).

Unfortunately there is no such thing as a default android 9 message app: each phone has whatever the manufacturer installed, and as I don't have the same phone I don't know what app you have (which may be a manufacturer's own app).

Yeah, after a little research I can see that the LGV30 on Verizon is different from the one on Metro PCS. The Verizon one has settings my phone does not. I might just redownload chomp as it has some features my default one does not. I still need to get around to figuring out what is causing my battery drain when not in battery saver mode.

Help Installing apk

R
Perhaps, the app that you attempt to download has more than one variant, so that you need to select the most proper one to your device. To know whether the APK file version is compatible with your phone or not, all you need to do is to sideload the AIDA64 application to figure out your phone's specifications such as Architecture, DPI and Android version. Then compare with those parameters showed on APK file variants.

Help Cannot stop email from syncing on LG G8 ThinQ

J
It was GMail and also my mail from another provider. Both syncing with sync shut off everywhere I found a place to shut it off. I have tried multiple email apps. I think I just found one that will work for me. I installed Blue Mail and it has the option to download messages on demand - as opposed to constantly checking for them. And it has an option to "Never delete mail from the server". So if I delete a message from my phone it will still show up on my computer. I think this one will work for me.

Thanks for trying to help!
