Awww, aren't you guys regular boy scouts eh?

Welcome to Android Forums, Pawan Choudhary!

It sounds like you're creating an app, is that correct? If so, the best place to ask is on our Android Development board.

If I'm misunderstanding, please let me know!

Don't you have a system setting for that, @bignose2? Something like [near the bottom]:



If I turn 'show mobile network' on, my carrier is displayed, just like @mikedt's:



I thought this was strictly an Android setting. My phone is a Moto Z² Force Edition running Android 8.0.0, and my carrier is Consumer Cellular (US).

Going back several years in my head... The one with Dangeous Toys' saga, I forgot on who was the guy with sunglasses and boa around his neck, but he had a teddy bear, and broken glass .

Thanks Mike!

I wanted to find out if the SD just came Un-seated, so I took the SD out of the turned off phone and re-inserted it, restarting the phone.
The phone could not see the SD. I repeated a few times. Still no luck.

To find out if the SD card was bad, or if the phone's reading slot was bad:
I took the SD out of my GPS (the only other micro SD that I had), formatted it & put it in the phone blank. It was seen by the phone.
The phone added many folders to it by itself. (Setting it up, I guess.)
This told me the Slot was OK.

For fun, I took the Phone SD & put it in the GPS. The GPS saw the music on the SD. (That's all it should see as far as I know.)
This told me the SD was OK.

This made me believe that the slot in the phone and the SD card were both OK and something corrupted the SD.

I copied the contents of the Phone SD to the computer. (I do have a recent backup, but wanted today's version.)
I formatted the Phone SD in the computer & put it in the phone. The phone saw it and put some folders on it.

I copied from the backup to the Phone SD any folders that actually had files in them, such as Music, Documents, etc.
Some only had empty folders marked Cache or other. I skipped them.

Next, I put the SD back into the phone and the phone saw it & could read from it.

All of the apps that I had on SD were gone, even if I put their empty Cache folders from the backup onto the SD.
There must be important files in a folder that the phone over-wrote when I put the blank SD back into the phone.
I'll re-dwonload them.

I still do not know why the phone did not read the SD, but now can (after a re-format in the computer).

Do you think it is wise to assume the SD is on its last legs and I should buy a new one?
Or, is there another possibility for why the phone stopped reading the SD, but now can?

Thank You Again!

It might take awhile...

I have no experience whatsoever with Snapchat so Im just guessing, perhaps you sould consider resetting you password. Sorry. I couldn't provide you with better assistance.

You don't mention the phone you have or the android version, but since you're using the photos app, I'll work it from that angle.

I'll assume you are searching in Chrome on the images tab. Let me walk you through what I just did and maybe you can let us know if you are doing anything differently.

I opened chrome, in the search box, I typed "antelope" and then tapped on the images tab. When I found an image that I wanted to download, I tapped on that and then long-pressed the main image until i saw the option to download. When i saw the download complete message, I closed chrome and opened photos. From there I tapped on the menu (three bars, upper left) and selected "device folders". You should see your recently downloaded image there.

Now, a few things ... Photos, does not, by default, show device folders other than the camera. You have to add those locations manually. And the default download folder for Android is "Download" but for some strange reason, Chrome puts them in a folder called "Downloaded". You might also see another folder called "Downloads" which would be from other apps that can download things.

But, there's good news. If you open Chrome, click on menu (three dots, upper right) and go to settings. All the way at the bottom (actually second to the bottom) is an option for downloads. There you can set the default folder where downloads are saved.

Without firmware your device simply won't boot. Partition, Software, efs, system, modem, bootloader,recovery ...... beed space. Its a given

As for those loose [rhymes with goose] text options, a screwdriver might help. But if you lose [rhymes with ooze] text options, that sucks.

try wiping cache for the camera or a factory reset. if it is still an issue then it might be a hardware issue.

Did factory reset it only happens when trying to take pic of object. If I do live focus of myself or background of something it works fine it seems

I'd never heard of Vectone until I read this thread. However I have used Lebara and Lycamobile SIMs bought in the UK, and had no problem with roaming on those networks, in China and Russia.

Unless there's any clairvoyants on AF, I think you might need to post your code, any error logs, etc. if you want real help from devs.

sorry i looked, nothing that i can find for what you want.

this is the closest thing:
widget lock screen

but according to reviews it seems to add a second lock screen with widgets.

what about a usb bluetooth adapter?
USB Bluetooth Receiver Adapter Wireless Audio Adapter Car Kit

try the phone in safe mode first. this will see of any 3rd party apps is causing the issue. if it is still doing it, then i would do a factory reset.

I've got A 10 and one of my friends is also using A 10 . Both of us experiences really glitchy conditions on our phones. Especially, stuck and device lagging. Actually, I'm only making phone calls and texting using the phone and no heavy load on it. However, A 50 in the same product line works faster and performs well..Actually most of other friends do not have a good idea about A series..Is someone experience the same issue? Is this is a common issue on lower A models?

so in this case it boils down to ram. the a10 has only 2gb of ram while the a50 starts with 4gb of ram with some models going up to 6gb of ram.

this will explain your lagginess of your phone. these days with the android os, you need a phone with a minimum of 3gb.....but i would recommend going to 4gb or higher in ram.

and just like with anything the higher the ram, the more it will cost you. i always say that "you get what you pay for". with lower and cheaper models.....do not expect too much of them.
