Hi, did you fix it by any chance? i lost my phone and when i reinstalled whatsapp no backup was found in my google drive even though i'm sure i had one

Click to expand...

do you see the file in drive? if it is not there than you can't restore a backup if there is not one there.

which redmi note 9 do you have? the 4G version? what is your model number?

i do not have your phone and i see that there is a Redmi Note 9 and a Redmi Note 9 4G. just the note 9 can be upgraded to android 11 while the note 9 4G can be upgraded to android 12.

and as @Dannydet suggested updates will depend on your carrier and manufacturer. if you know your exact model of the phone, you can do a search and see if there is a firmware update available for your phone. keep in mind that firmware updates are very device specific and installing the wrong firmware can have seriously bad consequences.

Welcome to AF @Shirazi . I moved your thread here for better exposure and assistance.

Do this via Google Chrome for Android. Open a new tab. The search bar will appear. Search for the thing you're interested in. When the search returns click the three dots to the right of the search bar. Click add to home screen. Rename, drag and drop.
Enjoy!

Yep, that is exactly what I did to fix it, prompted by the first response.

Android System - Charging connected device via USB - Tap for other USB options

I have had the same on a Galaxy Note 9 ... And think I have figured out why ...
This is an Android OS Issue ... Not Hardware Related !!!
The Phone has been connected to an extrrnal device (game controller, Flash Drive, Android Auto, or similar) and part of that connection was to change the USB Connection Defaults to suit that device. Reconnect the device and see if you get different options.

1. "AndroidAuto" was what changed the settings for me ... after I re-connected to AndroidAuto, and changed the preferences about auto-start and auto-play-music etc, the error message/notification went away.
2. My Phone charged again when cable was connected and I tapped the Notification "Android System - Charging connected device via USB - Tap for other USB options" and chose "This Phone" ... You MUST connect Charging Cable first, to get option for "This Phone"
Hope that helps ...

Jesus, can't it tell me which? "There's a problem" is not a valid message to give a user. Android can get lost next time I buy a phone. It's a piece of crap.

Hi sir, can i get gpt_main.bin from firmware i downloaded for my devices? I downloaded so many firmwares but there is no gpt files when i extract it.

I have to design something like this and add click event for each block, how should I proceed for that. Could anyone guide me regarding this
how to implement in android studio? like circular menu

Oh yes. My apologies. Here is the link...

Logisity - Apps on Google Play

Trying to start up a x86_64 based phone via the Android Studio Emulator, but it freezes at the white screen showing "Google". Here are the particulars:

1. Intel Core i7 chipset on the Mac
2. Android emulator uses API level 33
3. system image is from system-images/android-33/google-apis/x86_64

In Android Studio, when I hit the "run app" icon, as mentioned, it tries to start up the emulated phone, but freezes up.

I have tried --
1) installing intel-haxm driver via Mac "brew"
2) in Android Studio: "wipe data" on the emulator, then "cold boot" of the emulator but same problem.
3) tried at the command line: "emulator -avd Pixel_XL_API_33_x86_64", but again freezes at white screen.

A small portion of the (adb) logcat (excuse the ctrl-M's) shows:

Of note to me in this log portion--

(1) I do not see /system/bin/surfaceflinger on my Mac
(2) Abort message: 'Unable to generate SkImage. isTextureValid:1 dataspace:513' - this sounds important. Is it?

Pls let me know how one can get around this issue of the emulated phone freezing up.

And definitely, if I am asking on the wrong forum, pls let me know and I will direct this question elsewhere. Thx.

Open the Spotify and Tunein Radio apps, and look for any settings related to Bluetooth auto-play or auto-start. Disable these settings if they are turned on.
Thanks

Click to expand...

Tune-IN has a selection "Autoplay" with description "Turn ON to resume your last stream when tune In launches" and this is deselected. Few other chocies are enable and nothing seems to apply.

Nothing on Spotify setting seems to be appropriate.


Thanks!

I've decided to go with Mobicip "Lite" version. It seems there are a couple of good free ones out there, such as Kaspersky Safe Kids and Google Family Link, but they are not compatible with Amazon Fire. I'm primarily concerned with web/app filtering and blocking, and Mobicip "Lite" for $2.99 per month seems to fit the bill.

Hi, thank you and appreciate your timely reply. But i didn't updated any app or software etc

could well be right.

annoying in the mean time..

okay I have a tough book as well have you tried the offline maps downloaded and using the windows 10 maps app that's what I use for offline navigation in tablet mode and you can your chrome with a maps extension to bring up google maps just make sure your Toughbook has the GPS device installed

That's what I do now, but I want access to OnX and TrailsOffroad because they have way superior maps for boondocking.
