Any way to show who message sent to other than conversation mode?

Hadron
If you don't like the GMail app (and I don't particularly like it either) just use a different one. There are a lot to choose from, and there's no need at all to use Google's app for GMail, or for anything. I keep it disabled on my phone.

I'm currently using Nine, which allows me to turn Conversation view on or off, shows me the recipient name in the Sent folder. I've previously used MailDroid, AquaMail and K9, all pretty configurable even if I can't remember exactly which options each has. Just try a few and see what you like (remembering that the views are only one element of an email app: I personally won't use one where the app company passes my mail through their servers, no matter what benefit they claim I derive from that).

As for hoping Google will listen to you, good luck with that - their attitude (not uncommon amongst tech companies) is "we know best", and you are supposed to fit into their mindset.

Samsung Galaxy S6 laqing

Unfortunately the symptoms are not specific enough to identify the cause. Going into recovery and clearing the cache might help. A factory reset is more likely to, but you lose any data that aren't backed up. But nobody can be sure: it might be that there's one specific thing you need to do to fix it, but we don't have enough information to work out what. Or it might be a hardware failure that's not worth the cost of repair. Just the fact that it's rebooting isn't enough to tell.

If there were any other problems before this please tell us, as that might give a clue.

Pubg

I too used to face the same issue earlier while playing the game of PUBG then I lowered the graphics and FPS too. It works fine for me now. I won't say, its not like lagging at all but at-least the lag has decreased a lot from early time. Sometimes it's also due to the network connectivity or you can say slow network.

I would love to know if there's any other way to fix the lagging issue because this game is good but the lag issue gives a tough time.

Thanks.

Google GMS , Firebase APIs performance

Apiggee is a good API management platform. It has metircs to measure APIs performance. It also has dashboard to measure show APIs' performance. (see the attachements)

But based on my understand, Apigee only measures Google Cloud APIs performance, not includes google local APIs like GMS or Firebase performance.

Is there any tool / dashboard like Apigee measuring GMS or Firebase performance? What are those KPIs? :thinking::thinking:

Maybe, but how's that gonna help with tv shows and movies? I wasn't really planning on watching youtube on the tv. I wish I could find a way to "reroute" the picture to go around that part.

Only way I can see is to play videos in an appropriately sized window, that avoids the damaged area of the screen. Videos on a laptop either play full-screen or windowed, that's it.

Just to add to that:

If you're having issues with WiFi signal strength, the internal WiFi antenna in your device is a fixed component. It will be easier to address this on the router's end. Get a better router that's more capable of providing a wider ranger of WiFi coverage, or add in an extender (note most do involve a drop in bandwidth), or for the best, most consistent online connection, use an Ethernet cable between your router and your set top unit.

I live in a very Penguin centric house, and I've converted a couple of neighbours, and my daughter and son-in-law after their laptop hard drives failed (Win 7 and 10 respectively).

Isn't it fun converting people? I've lost track of how many I've convinced to ditch window$ in favor of Kubuntu Linux.

My all-time favorite convertee was my mom. I've written much about that, so I'll leave it at this: she loved it--but couldn't get used to its speed and its lack of needing to reboot constantly. :D
I do still have Win10 Pro dual booting with Mint19.1, as does my wife. But I can't remember the last time I actually wanted to use Windows.

If it's been long enough that you're satisfied you don't need it, why not wipe window$ and be done with it?

Connecting phone to computer problem

I can't see any video, but the first thought is 'bad connection'. Have you tried a different cable and usb port? Does the cable feel loose in the phone?

Video must have not uploaded, 2nd time didn't work either, but I've tried different cables and different USB ports. Even a different pc. And the cable seems fine in my phone, I even tried to clean out the charging port...

Help with settings

svim said:
Regarding the F <> C issue, this works on my Moto phone but it might be different for yours. Try going into your Apps menu and open the 'Google' app. In the bottom right tap on the 'More' link, and then on 'Settings', and then on 'Google Assistant'. Scroll down to the 'Weather' link for options on Celsius or Fahrenheit.
It is odd that things were OK before but just changed like that.

Thank you for your reply. I was unable to find the link or a similar one. The strange thing I rebooted the phone and lo and behold it was working properly. Very strange indeed.
