I'm curious if you can map physical buttons to firing up an app. For example pressing the volume up button while the phone is asleep etc.

I have not tried this myself, but here's an app that claims to do that...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=flar2.homebutton&hl=en_US

Here's a direct quote from the description of the app...
"Remap buttons to launch any app, shortcut or custom action with a single, double press or long press."

Thank you for your input. I have ordered a new phone. You are correct. It is a software issue. Not happy but it is what it is.

Well if it was just a software issue, I don't think you'd be buying a new phone. This is a hardware failure, repair or replacement required.

I have to fully agree.

Looks like "My Favorite Martian" the app.

No idea @annabl1.

As opposed to unintentional roaming?

Yeh, like getting on the wrong international flight, and that has happened.

I did end up in the wrong city once, when I fell to sleep on a train and missed my stop. That was in the UK, was supposed to in Cheltenham, but I was in Birmingham.

Yeah, and there's that. The latest I was able to get on my A855 was Gingerbread, 2.3.7 and it really sucked and struggled. That is part of why I do not really look to 'update' my devices to the latest version of Android past the one that was on it when it got released. Heck, my Nexus 6 (retired) is still on Lolipop.

If it's a 4k UHD TV 48" -72" send it to me and I'll put it into a "commode"

If you don't mind do you have an example code or some thing like that for that work instead documentation.
It will be a big help.

I wrote a tutorial that demonstrates how I use a JobIntentService with fully working example project and code here:
https://techstop.github.io/android-broadcastreceiver/

Now here's the thing, there are different ways to use this service, so the example a linked above may not be what you're looking for. If not do a google search for "how to use jobintentservice" and plenty of tutorials will come up.

Thanks for putting me straight. I don't know how that happened but can agree with you about YouCall. As I've now dealt with it by killing off voicemail, I'll let things stay as they are and avoid having to have yet another app. Thanks anyway,

Ian

Depends what app you use, and what option you click.

Hey guys, I just recently updated my game insane bird.
It's more like flappy bird bird with some extra features that are -
1) Bird selection mode.
2) 12 types of bird characters available.
3) 4 types of themes.
4) HQ graphics.

So just go and download it's realy fun.

And thanks of checked this game out!!

I was using a button but it stopped working with the latest android update.
Any suggestions on a hand held button type device that will open my camera, or click on a chosen desktop shortcut icon?
Thanks!

Where do I find the serial number on a LG HBS-910 or its box? The headset itself has an FCC ID number but I do not find the serial.

Xavier Black · Oct 19, 2019

I had that same issue about three months ago..my contacts which I've saved for years and years in my Google where gone..I was deleting some duplicates..that's how it happened..the only reason I was able to get most of them back was because some how and I have not idea when but magically my contacts also existed in my Samsung account that I don't remember setting one up..but well..bottom line..it's good to have back ups...

since a couple days I keep receiving phone call from numbers that, I think, comes from Europe. Is there any way to block that phone number format? (obviously im from North America, and want to let number XXX-XXX-XXXX in)

FYI Saudi Arabia, Congo, and Central African Republic, are not in Europe.

You might be able to get your carrier to just block international incoming calls, if you're not expecting thrm, and not have to do anything with your phone.

I'm not talking about the G7 Maxx. Just the Motorola G7 Optimo. Which from what I've heard is the equivalent to the G7 Play. The G7 Optimo Maxx is the equivalent to the G7 Power. Can anyone else confirm this?

dako · Oct 18, 2019

It's $699 for an 11

mikedt · Oct 18, 2019

Well apparently OnePlus is exclusive to T-Mobile in the US, that's why.

So much for "Never Settle" then, and you must settle with the carrier we choose.
