I got new phones for my children using that deal. You're right. It's great!

The Bad News

The OnePlus 6 & 6T have now reached their scheduled End of Life.

Now that the Oneplus 6 is 42 months, (3.5 years), old and the OnePlus 6T is 36 months, (3 years), old they have reached their, linked, scheduled EoL, (End of Life), and will no longer receive Regular Software Maintenance or Software Security Maintenance, (Android Security patches), see...

https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-software-maintenance-schedule.862347/

We, "may", see a final release in the coming weeks that could update the current Android Security patch and may offer some minor bugfixes but then that will be it for support from OnePlus for the OnePlus 6 & 6T devices.

There will NOT be an Android 12 update for these devices.

If you wish to extend the life of your OnePlus 6 or 6T and receive regular updates and Android Security patches, you will need to install a custom ROM such as Lineage or any of the other custom ROM's out there.

What device exactly will he be listening from? If the car stereo has a USB input, just put his music on the USB stick and play off that

The last Android 5.1 device I had was five years ago, an Oppo Find7. So have no real ideas about it these days. Except to say that devs very likely no longer support it, and it's probably only going to run older versions of apps, that's it.

@puppykickr @mikedt bro thank do u know any old version or old app for 3rd party dialer which can work with Android 5.1

The cloud is either some cloud storage or backup app or else a weather app. Clouds are, unfortunately, rather generic and there are a lot of apps with cloud icons, so very hard to identify a particular app.

The ball looks like a football ("soccer ball" to Americans). There are a lot of apps related to that sport, and I've never been that interested in 22 strangers kicking a ball around a field for 90 minutes, so I can't hope to identify which particular sports app it might be.

The last one was identified in another thread recently as the "digital wellbeing" app. That's probably collecting data on their screen time usage and sending it to Google , but it's not something that the user uses to send data anywhere.

Found the hand one:

Haven't been able to find the other though.

Glad the Braves won!

Hi there, I recently setup a few a rule on my phone to turn the ringer up when connected to my home wifi (because I would often have it set to vibrate when I'm out and then forget to turn the ringer back on when I got home.

It works in that when I get home it sets it to ring, but it's also turning the ringer off when I leave the house. Turn the ringer off when disconnected to wifi is not a rule. It's just doing it for me. I don't want it to not ring when I'm out unless I manually set it.

Is this happening to anyone else? I'm using Android 12 on a Pixel 3a.

Thanks!

I know Samsung phones with Android 11 can do that, like the Note20 and S21, via a feature in Settings called "Separate app sound", which allows you to set app notifications to only go through the BT headphones or the phone's internal speaker.


Samsungs with Android 10 I don't know, and I've never heard of this "Samsung Sound Assistant" ether. Is that a feature of the S9 phone?

Click to expand...

It seems Sound Assistant is a separate set of options that got added into Android 11, because it has the separate app sound option. However, that will only work for one app at a time, and is the app's output sound, not notification alerts or any of that.

How can I send a notification or reminder to a user based on their product's expiration date? Can someone please help me? Sorry I just started Android Development.

Check whether your device was set up with Samsung’s speech to text instead of Google’s speech to text at first. A friend tried using the Samsung one but it was just not as good as the Google one.

Will do. Thank you

No it won't. This is one aspect of Android 12 theming that doesn't get influenced by your wallpaper. It strictly follows the Light/Dark theme option as selected by the user.

hmmm... Thanks for the heads up.

thanks I appreciate it. Do you have whatsapp so we can talk incase it fails?

Click to expand...

nope do not use it, sorry. just post here if you are having issues. if i can't answer right away, i'm sure others here can help.

I found two potential related apps through a reverse image search: Boddle Learning & Sayes.

Sayes shows that icon in their screenshots on the play store. Not sure why it's in the image search for Boddle. But keep in mind it could also be neither of those apps. The only way to know for sure is to just ask your gf.

Well, I tried reposting the review with a few edits (including deleted parentheses) under my main account (instead of a different account), after changing my main account's name so it doesn't show my legal name.

This time it got posted. I don't know if it was due to the edits or which account I used.

Google loves to shadow-hide content it falsely indicates is published, and is not transparent as to why perfectly valid content is shadow-hidden.

Google = the walking dead without being a zombie, only a better zombie..

No it's always been set to details. Sometimes the notifications fill the lockscreen. Other times there's only one notification and when I swipe to clear it another appears and then another so there's like 2 or 3 hidden behind it. I'm trying to determine the pattern that causes this.

Thanks for the info!

OK,
in a desperate attempt to get an answer I reached out to the (german) Samsung support (since I received no answer, neither here nor in the german forum where I originally posted the question:
(Site address removed. Address not needed)
I will post the german original answer here as a quote, translation will be written below.
Here is what the support wrote me:

Tatsächlich ist nach einem Neustart die Nutzung des eingeschränkten Nutzer erst möglich, wenn der Hauptnutzer alles entsperrt hat. Wenn das Gerät im Stand-By ist, dann kann der andere Nutzer direkt darauf zugreifen, jedoch nicht nach einem Neustart. Das kann im System auch nicht geändert werden

Click to expand...

Translation:

In fact, after a restart, the restricted user can only use it once the main user has unlocked everything. If the device is in stand-by, the other user can access it directly, but not after a restart. This cannot be changed in the system either

When I asked whether this behaviour is Android (11) specific or an addition by Samsung, the answer was:

Das ist auf jeden Fall bei Samsung immer der Fall, ob es aber komplett Android-spezifisch ist, kann ich dir nicht sagen.

Click to expand...

Translation:

This is definitely always the case with Samsung, but I cannot tell you whether it is completely Android-specific.

Could someone check whether this is Samsung specific or is actually happening on all Android-tablets?
According to https://source.android.com/devices/tech/admin/multi-user, the function "Restricted Profile" in Android is only available on Tablets and TVs.

Best and TIA,

I moved this to the Android Lounge as it is more Android generic.

looks like whatsapp does not like it when you try a different account on a different phone:

Question: did he have a Google/gmail account for that phone? (most people do) If so, then his contacts ought to be already in the Google cloud, as well as his email. Texts could be an issue since those are local to the phone database.

Is the phone totally non-functioning? Even with a transfer program, you need to be able to do some functions on the phone itself to enable the transfer, you can't really suck everything over from an external connection.

As to a free program, Samsung SmartSwitch is available free for all recent Samsung phones since at least S6 so that can be used to move everything. I've done so twice in the past 5 years when upgrading from S6 through S10 and likely will do so soon when I upgrade to current S?? version.

Found this guide a lot better than the previous one:

My only issue now is that I need to put my phone into download mode and the button pushes I'm doing don't seem to be having the effect. Does anyone know what else I can do?

I have recently noticed that whenever I receive calls on my hands free car radio (Sony 410), it now only displays the number and not the contact name. I have a Galaxy A12 phone and yes, I have checked that my contact listing has synced to my radio. I don't recall having altered any settings and nothing I try will restore it from this state. Has this happened to anyone else and if so, how did you fix it?
