Development thread moved to the dev area for better exposure.

I am very happy with our cell service, now that we've dumped Verizon. Why pay for their retail stores and sports stadiums when they're going to reduce our service but still charge full price? We now have LTE and "5G" all over the place. I didn't believe that whole 5G thing so I did a speed test on my phone. 259 mbps down, 31 up. Well, okay then: that's all the 5G I need!

I didn't find mark text, but there's an underline current text feature that seems to solve my problem.

Thanks for helping.

Hey! Thanks! I just ordered it. They are so cheap, that it can't hurt to give it a shot. What I can't figure out is why many are trying/using the individual camera protectors. The last one I bought gave off a "halo" when taking shots at night while using the flash. I hope this one doesn't. Thanks again.

***UPDATE*** The Lens Protector is holding up VERY WELL. No issues in the past few months and the photos are coming out clear. It is very easy to clean (wiping it with a dry cloth) and the adhesive has held up with no issues at all. I'd highly recommend this and vouch for the SGS22U.

Thanks @kokiangel for the recommendation.

I believe this issue is with your watch and the app for it, which is messing with the proper functions of the phone

Transferring playlists from one Android device to another can be a bit tricky, but there are a few ways to do it. One option is to use a music app that allows you to export and import playlists, such as Google Play Music or Spotify.

To transfer playlists using Google Play Music, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Google Play Music app on your old device and select the playlist you want to transfer.
2. Tap the three dots icon in the top right corner of the screen and select "Export playlist."
3. Choose a location to save the file, such as your Google Drive or Dropbox account.
4. On your new device, open the Google Play Music app and go to "Settings."
5. Select "Import playlist" and choose the file you exported from your old device.

If you're using a different music app, check if it has a similar export/import feature. Alternatively, you can use a third-party app such as "Musconvtool" to transfer your playlists between devices.

I hope this helps!

the verizon version has it:

I used to use Express up until two years ago. Originally I was happy with their service, until it became very slow and often unusable in China. Since then I've used both Astrill and Nord, and found both of them are good here. As for free VPNs, I've found they don't work at all in here now.

That makes it worse, not better!

If some country demands that tourists hand over that kind of information, they clearly don't want your money. Take your business elsewhere and vacation in another country.

I had some strange happenings with the Homeland Security and TSA last time I visited America. Like been unable to pay for flights using my credit card, and a lot of excessive questioning at airport security. And I haven't been back since.

Hence why that makes it worse, not better.

Anyway: If I can't trust our private talks to be private, then I can't speak freely with you.

OT:

Well WhatsApp is Facebook(Meta inc), so I'm thinking nothing on there is going to be truly private and away from govt spooks(strangers) anyway....



If you're communicating via Wechat or TikTok, those have absolutely no privacy at all.
If really want true privacy and want to talk freely about anything you like, just don't put it on the interwebs, end of.

P&CA:

Apparently you've got this RESTRICT ACT bill coming up now, which from what I've read will make it a criminal offence to use a VPN in the US. This is exactly what the law is here in China, i.e. using a VPN can get you jail time.

why not just log into your whatsapp on a computer using your web browser to check if it is there or not. i do not use this app so i can't be of much help other than my suggestion.

I just read an intresting article of "We are even closer by of having an anime charater, now these days, who wants our SS number and cell phone."

notification center? is this from the pulldown at the top of the phone? or from your phone's settings? never seen notifications appear at the bottom. why not just ask the person who the phone belongs to?

the shield is probably some kind of anti-virus app or an ad block app. there are a couple of youtube notifications and the last one is the play store.

Good day. You should look on YouTube, there are just a lot of different training videos on the topic of 3D pens.

That might be helpful, always looking for a better small shapes to start off with, I did a bunch of abstract art with it already.

Good day. At the moment, I am looking at photos of these devices and I understand how far we have come in the field of gadgets, namely their design. Everything turned upside down and it's cool.

Don't know of a way to get a real number for free, but you can get a number for $1.50 a month plus tax from US Mobile if you only need texts for verification:

Go to the Build Your Own Plan section and select 50 texts per month for $1.50. At that price the taxes are probably more then the plan. They also have a $5 plan for light usage if you want to actually use the number.

Not sure if Twitter would consider prepaid carriers a valid number, or if only Verizon/AT&T/T-Mobile will work.

I tried but 30 minutes later they still had no clue saying it should bere....

thank you

Yeah just unfoutanately, it is all about the money...

I wish to add my own banner ads to my Android mobile app. Not AdMob ads. I've searched high and low for a tutorial on how to do this but I cannot find one. I'd be grateful if anyone knows of such a tutorial as I have spent a lot of time trying to figure it out but without success.

Thanks,

John

It's CoinMaster (a game)

Just got a new Samsung S23+ and ordered a tempered glass screen protector from amFilm -- the amFilm [2+2 Pack OneTouch Tempered Glass Screen - thru Amazon. It arrived quickly and was easy to install with the One Touch Application Tray. Quick and easy - no bubbles. I did have to rescan my fingerprint but it works fine after doing that.

That's definitely better than the zoom on my s21, which has typical "digital zoom" performance i.e. essentially useless.

Yeah, big difference! I'm coming from a S21+ too.

Hi
My phone was not purchased from my provider although they did sell the S20+ model.
I am putting it down to it maybe what they call a parallel import as there are issues with wifi calling that my provider cannot solve.
Looks like I will have to live with what I have.
Still does 99 percent of what I need.
Thanks

Whose settings? You've posted this in the ChatGPT discussion forum, but somehow I don't think that's what you are asking about.

How about you describe what you have done in a bit more detail? We only know what you tell us, not what you intend, so the more complete information you provide the better the chance of getting an answer.
