No 4G LTE (Straight Talk) US996 on 10F

B
No matter what I try, I can not get 4G LTE to show up on my phone. I put my SIM card in the wife's phone and 4G LTE works perfectly.

FWIW, it used to work just fine; I've verified all my settings (APN, etc) in the phone (I'm using the Verizon Network thru ST), BTW. Can someone verify the correct NETWORK TYPE setting?? Global or ???

As an aside, I enter my IMEI on Verizon web page and it says my phone will not work on their network; funny I was using the phone on their network for a year until I switched to ST.

Anyone??

Thanks...... Boowho??

Thanks! I will check out that link and maybe get it right... I think i must take my time to get this thing sorted out. Maybe i buy another phone before i try some of those roms so if it goes wrong i have that as a life saver then... or if i get tired i just keep using this same old thing.

i think getting a newer phone is a great idea. i would look into a phone that has a minimum of 32gb with 3gb of ram to start. 16 gb storage would work as well, but you will run into space issues very quickly.

App Inventor Navigation drawer & Google Maps

danielmuresan1618
Greetings!

I just started working on a faculty project which is an app for quickly renting bicycles from anyone willing to give them. For this, I'm going to use the Google Maps API. I managed to launch a Google Maps application and now the next step would be to add navigation drawers, buttons and other items on top of it (or shrink the map's size on the screen).
How should I proceed?

Thank you!

Dropbox alternatives?

MoodyBlues
It was a spiel from Google that really got me motivated to start acting on this. It was their offer for additional storage [above the 15GB we get just for having Google accounts]. It said 100GB was $19.95 per year, 200GB for $29.95(?), and then it shot up to 2TB.

I've had a 1TB Dropbox account for years, but awhile back they upgraded it to 2TB--and increased its price. I don't want or need >1TB, nor do I want to pay for it.

I'm leaning toward Google, but wish they had something in the middle--more than 200GB but less than 2TB.

Excellent! This is being added to my running file of useful Android info. :)

Full something mode, hahaha.
Not poop, but maybe a word that I did not realize would be censored.

Poop works fine, though.

Anyway, glad to have been of some help.
There are many, many different devices, each with different features and functions.

So the more knowledge we share about how to work around all these different devices, the better.

It actually took the installation of an app for me to even find this, and I spent the better part of 6 months trying to avoid long pressing the circle navigation button.

Thanks to Greenify, it was located and delt with.

Help 'Facebook upload failed - Tap for options' message

Tyke in Brum said:
Hi all. I keep getting the above message/notification. I don't know what upload it is referring to, and when I 'Tap for options' all I get is a screen saying I don't have any pending stories.
Top left there's a <left arrow> to 'Your posts' which just takes me to my phone's home screen, and top right a camera icon which takes me to the photo gallery. If I cancel out of this the message has gone, but it keeps returning.
How do I get rid of this annoying message permanently?!
TIA

= = = =
Answer: I too had this problem; I did not like seeing that there was no solution yet. THIS is what worked for me; I am not saying it is THE solution, it is just one way to get around the annoying (and repetitive!) message: “Facebook upload failed - Tap for options” yet there were no options! I uninstalled Facebook from my phone; went back to Play Store & Reinstalled it. Problem gone.


Note: there is a Technipage listing titled: “Facebook for Android: Clear Stuck Uploads – Technipages” which eventually said to, in Android settings to “CLEAR DATA”. Not being a super-tech, I did not like the ominous warning which came with that; I did not want my Facebook data cleared; contacts cleared, etc.

SO, I realized that my laptop version of FB would survive the removal from my phone. Which is what led me to Uninstall from the phone, and Reinstall. It Worked!

Help android shows location in Richmond

Hadron
Probably there is an error in Google's database of WiFi networks: your phone can see a network that Google thinks is elsewhere. Could be that someone has moved from Richmond, could just be a database error. I don't know the innards of Google's location algorithm (I imagine they regard those as confidential) so couldn't say how it handles conflicting information (e.g. if your phone sees networks that it thinks are in different places), so this is just speculating from the fact that WiFi location relies on Google's database of WiFi routers and their locations. But errors in this, sometimes from WiFi, sometimes cell information, do occur: I see 5-10 different reports of this sort here each year.

Help Problem Android Studio

Davdi
when you've successfully compiled an app, you can run it in the emulator, which you may have to download and install separately, It integrate with Android Studio and you can run your app on it from within Android Studio. The emulator gives you a choice of emulated devices including a variety of phones and tablets with varying screen sizes and resolutions.
