How To Delete Blank Home Pages

Jacob Rivers
Hey, it's been long, but frankly I had that problem and wanted to share some help. I use honor 8 lite currently and somehow managed to get about 10 useless home pages, none of above tips work, so I figured it out myself. Here it is:
1. Go to settings
2. Search from home screen style
3. Change your style to that other one.
4. You might have to leave app, then start it again and change back to normal.
5. If there is still any pages you don't need you can now delete those!
Hope this helps anybody :)

Very simple Webview app in Android Studio 3.4.2

Greum
The following might give you a start. You'll need to modify it to remove the title, but it's a start...

Java: 
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

        WebView webView;
        webView = findViewById(R.id.simpleWebView);

        webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
        webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
        webView.loadUrl("https://domain.com/");
    }
}

Smart Lock stops working

M
It seems to work a bit better with the latest OS install, and I have added several "Trusted Places" by walking to other rooms in the house and adding them. That should not be necessary because the area included is supposed to be large, but I now have (I think) 4 trusted places, all for my house and it has been working much better lately.

What's a good screen protector?

M
I have to admit to not being very good at installing these sorts of things. I always try to buy multi-packs because my first, and sometimes my second, effort does not result in a good installation and I need to do it again. However I just did an install of a new protector using this item:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SLZ2HB3/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

and the installation went perfectly. No bubbles and a good fit. It is a soft protector, not one of the glass types, but my fingerprint reader works properly and I am happy with it.

View attachment 143605

as you can see under suggested apps you can see the amazon photo icon as well.....so they are two different things.

Yes, I see. They are different apps available on Google Play.
But why will it navigate to Amazon Photos downloading web page when I click the link 'Get the Apps' in the web page of Amazon Drive? :(

Well, I flashed a SANDERS 28.49 Firmware running a XT1800 G5s Plus, but idk I have issues like wifi not working (can't activate it), calls have no sound, some bluetooth devices won't work and i'm trying to flash a newer version of sanders (28.65) trough fastboot, but I get preflash validation failed, security version downgrade, etc, and I cannot even install any custom rom trough TWRP because error 7 (even with the updater-script modified)

IOS Application Development Vs Android Application Development?

Hadron
Nice trolling, but it is irrelevant to the original question. If the OP isn't just writing for themselves (in which case you obviously write for whatever platform you use) they will most likely want to write for whatever platform will make them most money. In which case "which has the larger user base for my app and what will they pay?" is the real question, not the sort of thing you are saying. And of course if they can write cross-platform that solves that one.

Huawei Y9 Prime Fingerprint unlocking problem

You'll do the full fingerprint registration setup, but any fingerprints will unlock it?

I have seen this problem before, with a counterfeit Samsung Galaxy S7 . Where did you buy the phone? Because I know fake Huaweis are out there.

Suggest you post full model number.

Model - STK-L22
Build number - 9.0.1.1.189(C636E1R2P1)
EMUI version - 9.0.1

OH my god. I'm so screwed if it is a fake one. But I bought it for 2 years warranty from a local store.

Help Why is King Root at 0.1 percent for rooting

Horla
ocnbrze said:
like it was said before these one click root apps only went so far with android. google has long since patched securities that once made rooting with an app easy.......this is actually a good thing. as this protects the phone in the way that hacking your phone will be that much harder.

plus i like to root the hard way. by doing your research first and understanding the process. this is way more fun the something that was so easy. if things go wrong, you will have the technical knowledge to help troubleshoot. vs if something goes wrong in the app....you are screwed cuz you do not know where or how things went wrong.

if you want to root your phone, always head on over to XDA Developers Forums. it is a developers forum where the devs will post root findings and such. when you are there, check to see if there is a forum for your device. next see how active the forums are.

just remember no devs=no fun

and always read, read, read, and then read some more. if you have any questions please feel free to ask here.

and lastly what phone do you have? what model is your phone? each phone and carrier will have its own root process. know what phone and model you have will help us pinpoint how to root your device.

Root Oneplus 7 pro

Riya Patel
Yes it is safe until you know what you are doing and what is the purpose of rooting for you.

Most of us root our phone to make it faster in term of performance, to try custom ROMs and their advanced features and so on.

I had rooted my phone to make it more faster. Greenify is an app that can force stop app running in background, without root it can do it too but it will make you enable a service from accessibility and then after selecting apps it will start force stopping one by one, but in root mode (+xposed) it can force stop as many as 30 apps in just a single tap, isn’t it awesome?

The second app i use is the No-frills CPU. The app can let me use CPU at max clock. So that i can play games that may stutter with default profile of CPU but will not, after clocking it to max. Overclocking is also supported if you use a custom kernel that has been developed to use higher clocks.

Now that was my point of using root.

Main Advantages of rooting are:
  1. You gain access to root and can change system defaults to anything.
  2. You can try apps that can increase productivity.
  3. You can overclock your CPU and GPU.
  4. You can try custom ROM (root is not necessary but custom recovery is).
Main Disadvantages:
  1. You might lose your phone’s warranty.
  2. You might get a dead boot after rooting. ( it is called getting bricked, hard bricked in that case)
  3. You might lose your data unexpectedly. (either on internal or external card)
  4. Your device might go unstable. (Random app crash, reboots, device heating up more than usual)
