Is it possible to cast the audio track from Netflix to a chrome cast speaker (and ofc keeping it in sync with the video)?

If that's not possible, what is then the best solution to make Netflix playing sound on a portable speaker?

i have an outdoor projector that projects onto my porch. i have my chromecast hooked up to it. i also have an amazon echo speaker that i use for sound. works great!!!! so you should have no issues using a bluetooth speaker with chromecast.

Saving Photos over wifi

Since it hadn't been done it's quite a few. Also, he wants to be able to back up screenshots. It took a while for me to find where to choose backup but there's only documenrs. I made sure that was on at least. How do we tell it to back up screenshots and generally have a wider choice of options? It's a Samsung A15, maybe a few months old. I'm not sure of the Android version but I bet 12 if not higher.

it should automatically backup your screenshots. and if there a lot of photos then you will need to give it sometime to backup everything. also it will depend on the speed of your wifi signal. if you have slow internet then it could take a long time to backup. but once it is backed up, then going forward it should be a much quicker process.

also to verify you can go into google photos on the phone. select the avatar at the top right corner and then backup. it should say in progress or backup complete. also check to see if the google account has been synced as well.

Help How to get internet without sim card slot?

spman said:
Hi

1. If I want to buy a tablet that only has the wifi feature (e.g. Samsung S6 Lite Wifi version) and no sim card slot tray, how to use my data sim card to provide wifi/internet to the tablet?

2. Is there some device that I can put my data sim inside then the device will give out wifi signals, so that my tablet can connect to the wifi signal to connect to the internet?

3. Is there some device that I can put my data sim inside then I can connect a cable from the device to the tablet usb port, so that my tablet can connect to the internet?

4. Does this type of device work https://www.amazon.com/300Mbps-Hotspot-Devices-Portable-Business/dp/B0D5R2B6DW/ref=sr_1_14

5. Does this type of device work https://www.amazon.com/NETGEAR-LTE-Broadband-Modem-LM1200/dp/B08R813HLW/ref=sr_1_8

Thank you

Our quick question is:

Why would you need a sims card since Samsung saves your contacts with wifi?

Transferring files from Android phone to PC?

NewbAndroidUser said:
I'm still considering buying a new Huawei phone just so I can access back to my user data(SMS messages, Offline Notes made in Huawei App, Call Logs)

Can anyone confirm that I'll be able to access my user data with a new Huawei phone?

I can't buy a used phone just because I'm too worried about dirt left by a previous user!
