Help Samsung Galaxy A10s - video calls no longer working

Hey gang, been a long time since I've needed help. I've got an issue since the last Android update around a month ago.

I'd been having video calls on a weekly basis, then the OS updated, and then the video calls no longer worked. We tried a couple of different video platforms, they all appeared as though they should be working (permissions, green lights, check marks, etc), but the video screen just wouldn't pop up.

Although we've been using my iPad ever since as a substitute, I'd really like to fix the issue with my phone. Thanks in advance.

Is there an instrument tuner app that resembles the Ableton Live tuner?

Ableton Live only runs on Windows and MacOS. But what I want is a tuner app for Android that has a similar interface, which is why I posted the screenshot. The simulation of a jiggling needle in Gstrings won't work for what I want to do. The Ableton Live tuner tells you how far out of tune you are by the colour of the dot. It is green if you are within a few cents of the note; yellow, orange or red if you are further off.

Did you check any of the apps that I listed?

Help Contacts not syncing and cannot be edited

So it started syncing again. All I did was go through my address book and remove any entries with characters like / or *

I'm not sure if that is really what did it but it started working after that. Hope that helps

Anytime there are characters that an app considers ''invalid', there will be some sort of issue.

Unfortunately, the apps I have seen do not let you know which characters are 'invalid'.

Help Can I add Volume Control Option to Control Centre in Redmi Note 10 Pro ?

Looks like you are another one to join the group of the earlier person who replied me, who did not read my comments. And to answer your question, Yes I did a google search and found the information that there is an apk file available on the Chinese website and I came here thinking someone would have an equivalent solution here.

Soooo, did you try the Chinese website?

I put window tint on my crystal ball, and can no longer see into it.

Protecting cat ears from fire alarm

I guess most of them don't live in greenhouses. Also, they would probably be able to move, seek shade, warmth, etc. Animals in a locked vehicle probably wouldn't have as many options. People being there to monitor and assist them would make a world of difference.

My bet would be that more than 90% of the animals that die locked inside closed cars are dogs.

This is very telling about the sort of people that have dogs.

They can't leave the thing at home because
A. it will destroy the house if left alone and/or
B. the owner is deranged and just HAS to take it everywhere.

Coupled with these is the fact that it happens so often, yet they never seem to learn.

Ac blowing hot

I sure hope it doesn't run on freon. That junk was banned years ago, but there's probably still some available on the black market. How would we find out what it actually uses, discover if it's low, and refill it?

Freon is just a brand name !

What is in a/c units is refrigerant, there are many brands, and many refrigerants.

The Montreal Protocol called for the phasing out of certain refrigerants due to the alleged ozone hole issue.

The manufacturing of R-22 in the USA was banned in January 1, 2010, yet importation of it was/is still allowed.

Once the importation ban is mandated there will be only what is on the shelf and then the train wreck begins.

I used to do refrigeration work until a jug of R-12 went up to a thousand dollars .... I used to pay 25 dollars for a green jug, (R-22/aka Freon), today's prices ranges from 500 to 800 dollars for the same jug ! ! !

Word documents or hand write down?

Anything I want to keep is on a computer (Desktop or laptop) and on an external Hard disk, offline when not i use, and at least on USB stick/SD card.
I'm always amazed when someone posts that their phone ha died and there's no backup. My phone syncs automatically with Google (data is always on so photos get to Google photos pretty much immediately). You can never have too many backups. Oh, and remember to check that backups are readable, theyre useless if you can't read them.

Help MMS didn't transfer from iPhone to Pixel

Not sure if the cause is the same as the method you used, but the app iSMS2droid for transferring SMS to Android says this in their FAQ:

Why are there no images in my messages?

If you receive a SMS message or plain-text iMessage, your iPhone takes the text body and saves it (together with some metadata) into its message database. This also happens when you receive a MMS message (or iMessage with attachments), but when saving the text body and metadata into the message database, it also downloads the attachments and saves them into a specific folder on your iPhones filesystem, and then puts the path to those attachments into a separate table in the message database.

This means we now have the text body and the information about its attachments in the database – but we don’t have the attachment files themselves. When you create a backup of your iPhone, those attachments get also backed up to your computer, but each one as a separate files with a cryptic filename that is based on the path of the file on your phone.

It would theoretically be possible to also import the attachments, but that would require you to copy your whole iTunes backup folder to your Android phone, as it is impossible to predict which files from your backup are message attachments until iSMS2droid actually opens the message database and starts importing.

TalkBack - How to use it to read eBooks and turn it on/off easily

Do you know how to change the continuous reading speed? Whenever I select the changing speed option it changes the reading speed without continuous reading activated, but it does not affect the continuous reading speed when activated. It seems there must be separate ways to change the reading speeds and I can't figure it out. This application is a disaster



Thanks for the tips its saved me forking out money for a fire hd tablet.

You now have a feature called 'continuous reading' which works for Kindle app. On a page you just swipe right then double tap and it will read through the pages without having to swipe through them individually. Not sure how well this works with other eBook apps.

Turning off a SIM on dual SIM phone

I'm looking for exactly the same feature. I've got a dual sim phone, but the "do not disturb" feature only works by turning the ringer off and back on at certain times so all messages and calls are missed. I want my work sim to go silent and straight to VM out of hours and my personal sim to stay on. I can't believe such an obvious feature is missing from a device designed for this very purpose. Does anyone know of any apps that will overide the DND feature in android settings and manage both sims seperately and not together? Cheers.
