Cases Do NOT under any circumstances root the RCA tablet, and here's why.

.... Hence the reason I now advise people that want to flash their ROM's or root their devices to never do it, unless of course the 'custom' ROM was created by ripping the stock ROM, modding it, .....

But in this matter the problem you ran into is very anecdotal. Simply because this happened to you does not mean it also applies to everyone else, so spreading gospel to 'never try' is misleading advice. The fact is, there are countless instances where people have successfully rooted and/or use custom ROMs. At least provide some context to your 'advice', blanket statements rarely have substance.

Annotating a view only pdf???

Is there any way of annotating a "view-only" pdf using Samsung Notes? At the moment it's not letting me but I maybe doing something wrong. If not, is there ANY annotation app that can bypass the view-only pdf rule?
And if not that, is there anyway to make a "view-only" pdf, editable?
Hope you can help!
Well you can easily head over to a different format, like I have imported so many of my pdfs to WPS and they have a free program build in to annotated in that sugesstion, also you can really edited it to your heart desire :)
I have been using Samsung notes forever!

Import external Java class in Android Studio

I have an Android project with its root folder at `C:\Users\myname\Documents\MyApplication`. In one of the Java files in my project, I would like to use a Java class located in the file `C:\Libraries\SomeClass.java`. How do I do this?

I tried going to File > New > Import Module... and selecting `C:\Libraries` as "Source directory", but it says it's not a valid project. But I don't want to import an entire project, I just want to import one file.

Multiple names under one saved contact

That's not how contacts are set up. You can have two contacts "Joe Smith" and "Sam Jones" and enter "Johnson Trucking" as the company under each contact. The people app doesn't support multiple names. You'll need to come up with a workaround using existing fields, but the phone will only display certain fields on the caller ID.

You could make the 'name' the company name, and then have the two employees listed in another field like 'title' or 'notes'. If they have different phone numbers you could also list each phone number under the company, and then give the phone numbers a custom name (instead of home or mobile) and enter the two employee's names. You can do the same with email addresses for each.

ie...

Name: Johnson Trucking

phone:
800-555-1212 : Joe Smith
800-555-1213 : Sam Jones

email:
jsmith@jtrucking.com : Joe Smith
sjones@jtrucking.com : Sam Jones
The Sony Ericsson K700i I used had this feature I could open a contact XYZ company under which I could save up to 10 contact numbers with 10 different names. I don't think the OS was symbian

Help Photos: sync-related chaos

All photos are synced to #1. I only switched to #2 temporarily to try to resolve the issues that arose after Google apparently switched to #2 without my realization.
But that is the gist of your problems, you need to pick one Google account as the sole, primary one to maintain your photo library.
At this point, it sounds as if both the photo collections within each Google account are mixed up with each other in a varied combination of unique and duplicate files as each tried to sync up with your photo library. I'd suggest you pick one and only one of your Google accounts as the one management account, then log into your two Google accounts on a desktop/laptop using the web interface to clean up your photo collections in each account, merging them into one, central source for your photo library. Using the larger screen on a computer might be easier to do this kind of project than on a phone.

Carriers who support WiFi calling?

There are plenty of options if you're ok with using a different number or moving your existing number to a different service. But if you want seamless wifi calling with your present carrier and device, both have to support it. This usually means one of the major carriers and one of their branded phones. Unbranded/unlocked devices will usually not support wifi calling.

Why is my casting so laggy?

I cast you tube videos to my TV on regular basis. I used to have Mate 9 and this worked fairly seemlessly, until I got this Mate 20 pro. Now the connection is very laggy, I select a new track which takes a good 30 seconds before it appears on my TV. Also noticed it takes over a minute before other casts after in my TV.
when you say cast, are you referring to chromecast? if so have you tried rebooting it? if not then what app are you using?
