Productive text is GARBAGE. So bad I'd get a new phone if i mule afford it. Other keyboards work momentarily but I find they act up too all I've been able to do with consistency is long press the key i want then the 3 or 4 options for that key pop up and i scroll to the letter i want release it go to next letter and so on til the word i want finally pops up. I use T9. Good luck

...Talked with samsung rep on the phone and they told me to call my cell carrier. I am now confused, I thought this would be a hardware feature, not dependant on my carrier.

Yes it's a hardware feature but your phone already includes support for phone calling and for WiFi connectivity. The actual WiFi Calling service is dependent on whether your account with your carrier includes it. Contact your carrier.

Text editors exist, by design, to work only with text. Use word processor or other similar office suite app.

unfortunately you can't downgrade your phone, once it has been updated.

maybe try these suggestions:

I mainly use analogue timepieces, but when I look at a digital clock (like in the corner of this laptop right now)... nope, it's just the time to me.

I always set any digital clock to 24 hour mode though - since public transport timetables are 24 hour it's always made more sense to me to use that (on this side of the Pond the American name "military time" sounds weird, since here it's more likely to be associated with train timetables than the military).

ok took a drive and the cameras did connect, not real great but enough for me to see cars going by the house and the dogs messing up the living room.
so for now i think it is doing about as good as i can expect for a free phone number and data.

thanks

Because my battery is holdinv pretty good until about a week ago. At evening i put it to charge and in the morning i almost always get from device care the message that some apps were closed and i get this com.android.chromerivileged_process4. Also if i close all apps including chrome doesnt make any change, battery still going down pretty fast, by fast i mean like about 8 hours not using my phone. But before was easily holding all day long using the phone.

well "com.android.chrome" is your chrome browser and "priveleged process4" has to do with your permissions. you might want to clear or change permissions for the chrome browser and see if that helps:

if that does not help, you can do a few things.
1. reboot your phone
2. put your phone in safe mode. this prevents any 3rd party apps from running.
3. factory reset your phone

if those do not work, then like i said your battery is probably on its way out, so maybe now is the time to start looking for a new phone.

Well, I just bought a refurbished one for pretty cheap compared to the original price when it came out.

Should be getting it next Wednesday.

A bit late to this party but this issue still appears unresolved in 2022, I saved an image ib bluemail got the confirmation of file saved but it simply can not be found. Desppite severral attempts with file managers Total Commander and Amaze file explorer no trace can be seen of the saved image.

Suggestions welcome

Thanks for the links.

To enter data, in Android, I'll just copy a whole text from my Windows computer (through the web or by coping the TXT file into Android), paste it, and encrypt it in one go. I don't need more than that.

There are tons of "notepad safe" apps, and as usual, it takes forever to find a good one.

Ideally, open-source.

Edit: Safe Notes looks like what I had in mind. I don't like its "slot" thingie at the bottom, and would rather have all notes in a list, where a note could simply be tagged in case I need to filter.

Edit: For others' benefit. I tried a bunch of them, and the closest I found of a free, no-brainer, no-thrill app is "Note Crypt Safe with Password".

I created a channel for your app. Good luck and thanks for sharing.

Could be your launcher, I know on ADW there is an option to turn off the status bar, that shows you the battery percentage, wifi and blu tooth status about it, I will turn it off again, besides with 12, there is no need for me to look up at it ^ _ ^

Have you built such a PowerApps app already?
But the feature of creating standalone, native mobile apps with Power Apps will be generally available in Jun 2022.
So it looks like you have to wait a month before you can convert your PowerApps app to a native Android app.

That's worth looking into. Typically, I'd forgotten where the phone came from but luckily kept the emails from Tello confirming my purchase from them. I can check this with them. Might be the clue THEY need.

By the way, I've also added an APN as specified by Tello. I really thought that was going to do it. But n o o o o o o . . .

Did you ever figure out how to get it to work? I have the same phone model. I'm currently testing out PagePlus, which uses Verizon, and one thing I noticed is that the "VoLTE provisioned" setting starts out disabled, and if I enable it, it doesn't stay enabled past a reboot of the phone. Even with "VoLTE provisioned" turned off, I can still make calls, which I don't really have an explanation for, but I just thought I'd mention it and ask you what you ultimately did on your end.

Using MIT App Inventor I modified a Bluetooth example that connects & sends data to a remote device, all pretty straightforward. Grabbed the AIA file from the Internet, loaded it into App Inventor, made changes, built the APK, installed and ran it on my phone – no problems.

Next I downloaded & installed Android Studio, made a basic test program with some buttons & pictures, sent it to my phone over Wifi and everything worked.

Then gave a shot at loading some Bluetooth examples on Android Studio but got lost in the weeds. First tried to directly load a bunch of different APK files but couldn’t get things to work, no Bluetooth connections could be made. Next gave a shot at using GitHub, downloaded a bunch of examples but same thing, couldn’t made a connection to the remote device.

MIT App Inventor makes it easy, only a single AIA files is needed while Android Studio has a bunch of files and directories and I don’t have a clue as to how properly load example code.

How does one know what files go where and into which directories?

Thanks.

I think this has been hashed out far enough.

Java it is the official Android development language maintained by Android Studio and is the foundation for learning Kotlin.

In general, when disputes begin about which is better, Java or Kotlin, you should remember that Kotlin is a wrapper over Java. To understand the Kotlin documentation and get help with the Android mobile app development process, you need to know Java.

Since I have an s21 I just tested what the Samsung Gallery app let me do. And I agree they've not thought it through:

I selected a couple of photos and then chose the option "copy to album". I chose "create" and it gave me the option to enter a folder name, but gave no visible way of choosing where that folder would go within the filesystem. It actually create it as a subfolder of DCIM, but I had to use a different app to find it!

I was able to copy photos to a folder of my choice, but only via the same "share" trick I had to use with Google photos: select photos, choose "share", find a file browser in the options to share to (involved some side-scrolling, no clue in the UI to tell you to do that) and then use that to create and select a folder where I wanted it.

Bottom line: it's possible, but they don't make it easy. This sort of thing is why I generally use third party apps for most things rather than what the manufacturer bundles - I can usually find something that does a better job (or at least one that suits me better).

I like what you mentioned about this too, it is much more easier, screen shots and have them in a different subfolder on accident, or have them to a different folder that is visible to you, funny how my Gallery app just adds in different photographs I have snapshot and show them in my phone, but when I get super freaky and not have it all over the place, then it is a gather throughout the masses of my downloads.

Works wonderful, thanks for the recomendation puppy
