Hi CarolaSuperSexy. Welcome to Android Forums. We are a friendly and well-moderated forum. I know. I'm a moderator!

Welcome to Android Forums, Lyle Mariam!

I second F-Stop. I use its Pro (paid) version. It does exactly what you're looking for.

Just FYI, this board is really meant for suggestions/feedback about Android Forums. There are other boards, such as Android Lounge for non-forum related questions.

If you decide to use F-Stop and need any help, let me know!

I have a new Galaxy Tab S6 Tablet which I want to use with my digital photography. What I'd like is a photo viewer that allows me to organize my folders and put folders inside of a topic folder rather than a bewildering list of folders. I have pictures in different folders for landscape, models, photoshoots, etc.

What I want is to initially just see a top level list of folders such as landscape, models, photoshoots. Then when I click on one of the topic folders be able to see folders underneath (inside) the upper level folder. All of the apps I can find just displays all of the folders the search finds so I have to search through a long list of folders (albums) to find the one I want rather than just being able to drill down like on a Windows PC.

Is there a photo app for Android that supports this?

Number Blocks Online is an online game where you place shapes onto a board to score points. There are two game modes, Score Attack and Survival.

In Score Attack mode, the first player to reach 150 points is the winner. In Survival mode, you place shapes onto the board until one is unable to do so.

Completely filling a row or column removes it. In Score Attack mode, this will earn you points, and removing multiple rows or columns in one go will earn bonus points. Removing multiple rows or columns in Survival mode will penalise your opponent by adding blocks to their board that are impossible to remove.

You can either play casually, which does not require an account to be created, or ranked mode, which does require an account to be created.

Hello,

I am new to android application development and i am currently working on an existing android application. I have couple of questions regarding the creation & setting of background images in the application

1) In the existing project I found that the images are set based on different dpi levels. But I found that there are different devices with different screen resolutions for same dpi value. For e.g., in latest Android Studio (v.3.5) in the AVD manager I found following screen resolutions for the same dpi “~420 dpi”.


2) As per this Android link , I have only found the following list for different dpi values. Under which category does 420 dpi fall?


Thanks and Regards,
Kamal

I am using a paid VPN.

First of all, I would like to say thank you AdGuard help me block ad in the phone. This is my first time to use AdGuard and I would like to share my experience.
When I have my new phone, I didn't want to root the phone because it will lose the warranty, I'm trying to search some apps can block the ad and control the privacy, somehow I found the AdGuard on Google. Honestly, at that time I was worried about using AdGuard because need connect to VPN, and I had made lot of research and reviews the app. Finally, why not give a shot try to use the app, I downloaded from the AdGuard website after installed in my phone, actually it wasn't difficult to set up, but just need to be patient. After follow the instructions, I'm waiting for the miracle result, I went to browse the website, using the app, social apps, and I found out all the ads disappeared, I went back to AdGuard app, it shows me how many ads have been blocked when I am use the social app and browsing some websites , also I can check the filtering log that's incredible.

The next thing, I want to know about the internet speed because it connects to VPN. I had tested the internet speed, honestly, I don't give too much hope about the speed!!! Well, I was wronged, the app didn't reduce the internet speed also it helps me save data, also I can see on the screen how many data saved from my internet. On the other hand because the app blocked the ad which means the ad will not appear in the phone and reduced the data it helps a lot of people who don't have unlimited plan from the provider.

I guess lot of people consider the battery usage. I can tell the app didn't use battery too much, i had tested the app in one hour and my phone battery remaining same percentage, so the users don't have worry about the battery usage. However, AdGuard app have a lot of features in the settings which are General, Content Blocking, DNS Filtering, Stealth Mode, Browsing Security, Extensions, Network and Advance, if you were an expert I guess you will know how to use the features, if you were first time to use this app don't have to worry how to setup, just follow the instructions and you done. The cooler thing is support dark mode who those people who like dark mode, in my opinion dark mode also reduce battery use and increase beautiful UI.

To summarize, I will recommend people or my friends install AdGuard or for those users who didn't want root the phone. Beautiful UI, easy to setup also the app including premium subscription and the price is not expensive. In addition, AdGuard support windows, Mac, ios and browser extension, for more information and pricing visit www.adguard.com. I would like to say the AdGuard products will not disappointed you.

i have used on my note 8 and saw no issues with battery life. but yeah it will drain it....granted it is a very slow trickle that you will hardly notice it.

I'll test on my S10 Plus. Thanks for response

I dumped the Facebook app because it eats my battery up. But I do use it on browser occasionally.

Is this a launcher app you are creating?

Click to expand...

No. This is not a launcher app. The app that I am trying to build is a simple service-oriented app where server side is sending FCM notifications about the new services. The notifications are received by the app and shown in system tray as well as in the list of notifications screen.

I want to show the count of unread notifications on app launcher icon like Facebook/WhatApp does.

I have to use the link provided by AppBounty for me to get the points so I can't do that

Click to expand...

It shouldn't affect that.

it also does not have to be just an app notification. websites, if you grant them permission to send you notifications, can also use icons similar to what you have.....so that adds many more icons that they could represent.

we get this question daily, it is really hard to help majority of the time, because there just way too many things that they could be.

the easiest way is to just look on the phone, but then that would be sneaky and going behind someone's back which is not good for the relationship. or you can just be open and ask....but that is not for me tell you how to do that. i am definitely not a relationship expert.

.....good luck

my favorite watch to date was the samsung gear s.

i loved the curved glass. it was eye catching and a great conversation piece.



the only thing that sucked was the charger and how it charged. it was not made very well. i would still be using it, if i could get it to charge. the contacts wore out underneath the watch and would not work with any new charging cradle i purchased.......so i had to retire it......i still think i have it someplace.

So what I got out of this is depending on what state the os or rom is in basically dictates the name. Rom is a file waiting to be loaded and executed and once that takes place it become the os/operating system.

Click to expand...

yes...you got it.

once the custom rom is flashed it becomes the os, but we still call it by the name of the rom and not what os the rom is based on.

Thanks for the feedback, guys. I'll give them all a whirl and see if I like any of them!

cool beans, let us know which one you liked, or if you found a new one you liked....keep us posted

never owned a sony device, but i think sony should have some sort of data transfer as do most manufacturers.

...........here i found something:

That prevents an app from using mobile data when you are not using the app, but when you have that app open it can still use a mobile connection.

Click to expand...

Yeah. It does not surprise me that the option is for background access only.

That means for me that every time I connect to WiFi I will have to disable mobile, use all apps I want, make sure I exit them after using them and re-enable mobile. It is far from ideal but better than carrying a second phone loaded only with the four apps I need for eventual emergency mobile connections when I am out of WiFi coverage.
App developers should allow users to setup usage to WiFi only all the time at app level.

Are you sure the port is worn out, as opposed to just getting pocket lint in it which stops the cable engaging fully? Maybe try cleaning it carefully with a fine probe (e.g. a pin, but be careful to keep away from the contacts).

Personally I'd not attempt this. If you've genuinely managed to wear out the port in one year that suggests that LG used a very shoddy part, and so it's unlikely that any replacement will be as bad. But if you really want to you'll need to know what to do with the rest of the USB-C port's contacts: USB-C has 12 (pairs of) contacts, while microUSB has 5, and I don't know whether you can just leave the rest floating. I found a discussion of fitting a USB-C connector to a USB-A device here, but that's the opposite way round to what you want, and I'd think it's the easier one as the device doesn't have the extra lines.

Click to expand...

Yes it's worn out. I blew on it and tried it again and its worn out.

I'm just getting tired of trying to keep the cord in.

But, this isn't my only option. I seen that I can add wireless charging but since my port is worn, I might just get a new port and then add the wireless charging so I won't have to keep plugging a cord in the port.

Hi. My LG G4 speech to text feature just stopped working. The microphone icon is still there, but when i attempt to use it, the 'tap to speak' screen pops up as in the past but now it says 'try again'. I took in in to my T-Mobile store; they confirmed all software is up to date. they are stumped it seems. Said maybe the software no longer supports that function...doesn't sound right to me. Any suggestions??

I've no experience of 3 (my son uses them, but I never have), but this sounds plain silly. I'd be tempted to try escalating, ask to speak to supervisors, or customer complaints about the poor service, maybe tell them that you are not getting the service you are paying for and consider their inability to remove restrictions you never asked for to be a breach of contract - I'm no expert in this stuff, just thinking what might get their attention. Telling them how many times you've been told it will be fixed, if necessary taking it to the media (it's amazing how many intractable customer services problems get solved when they get a phone call from say The Guardian rather than a paying customer, i.e. when it might be about to cost them other business through bad publicity).

But what has changing your browser got to do with the "my 3" app? Surely you can use any browser you like, and change the default browser just by clearing the defaults for the current one, waiting until something opens a web link then telling it which browser you want to use instead?

This happened to me on a Samsung Galaxy S8Plus (running Pie) yesterday, after having installed a recent security update on Friday. I tried making calls but they never connected, or so I thought when I abandoned the calls. What happened this morning is that I tried dialing *611 to get tech support, but seemingly it failed so I put the phone down. Apparently the call did connect without my knowing it and VZW support got the call, the CSR listened to background noise and decided to call me back to see if something was wrong or if it was a buttdial.
So, I spent nearly two hours with VZW tech support walking through comprehensive troubleshooting. Finally, tech support issued me a new SIM card which I could pick up at a local retailer. An hour after the new SIM was installed, the post dial delay has disappeared, outbound calls now connecting in 2-3 seconds again. Definitely something with VZW but they said nothing about problems in the network. Sigh. At least I didn't have to do a reflash of the whole phone.

That is a great read, really helps. I thought since it worked with DH 5 that the device must not support DH 14 but if I understand correctly I can raise the DH group to maybe 19 and it should work?

Click to expand...

Well, I'm just assuming it will work given how dated DH 14 is at this point. Note that primer article is from 2013, which predates the release of those 'problematic' Galaxy S7 phones (early 2016). So my assumption is based on supposition for the most part.
Another clue to this puzzle is I rely on Signal Private Messenger as my texting messaging app, which also uses ECDH -- which I recall was working fine on an even more dated Galaxy S3 back in its day (released in 2012).
