Who is your current carrier?
If you go to their web site, unless it's a really small, independent carrier, they all have their recommended APN settings publicly posted.
Create a new APN entry and fill it with the indicated settings. Be sure to follow the exact same spelling and grammar (i.e. if not spaces are shown, don't just add your own). It's safer to create a new APN entry than editing an existing one, that way if you do make a mistake or there's a problem you can always go back. And when you do change the selected APN, reboot your phone. Changing the APN isn't going to happen on-the-fly, you need to reboot the phone so it gets reloaded into memory.
Did this problem just start occurring recently or has it been a long-standing issue?
Another issue to consider is your S6 is a six year old phone. That's not that old really but if your carrier did make some kind of change in its cellular network service that could have a secondary effect on your phone.

Since its the previous update, vs. Brand newer one, the text has blended into the needed on-screen text as well as even the apps themselves, Quicksand, maybe that is the settings of the moto app, well yes it is, so the moto app has really scanned throughout the different apps as well as the settings too, a big plus... Okay you can read the technical work on the android sources url.

Found it!

I was right.
It was Notistar, a component of Good Lock.

Woo-hoo!

Good day, all.

it could be that you are dealing with old software in your 2018 stock radio and your much newer s21. you can only troubleshoot on your phone side by clearing cache for any apps that the radio uses when they are connected. if clearing cache does not work, you can try rebooting the phone. if that does not work then you might want to consider doing a factory reset. if all that fails to fix the issue, then you might want to start looking into getting a new radio.....or learn to deal with the issues.

just do not power off the phone that often. i rarely turn my phone off. the only time i do is because of a glitch or something.

Those apps shown in your screen captures don't appear to be anything out-of-sorts. There's typically a lot of apps and services that run in the background of our phones that pertain to basic functionality, not just apps we might be actively using at the time. For the most part there's no need to bother with micromanaging your phone, the Android memory management is typically more advanced than we humans think we are.

As for that battery drain issue, as others have stated it could simply be a matter where you're just within the effective range of the cellular service from your chosen carrier. In the first screen cap you posted, the cellular service icon in the upper right does indicate a low number of bars. Is that typical for where you're located or were you previously seeing more bars in that icon? You might want to try installing something like this Opensignal app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.staircase3.opensignal&hl=en_US&gl=US
You can use it to do a speed/connectivity test on your cellular service, and it includes a map (you need to enable Location too) of the signal strength coverage and location of your carrier's cellular towers/access points.
Have you just recently changed your location (moved to a different home or into a different room in your house)? Or any new construction nearby? (i.e. a building or structure between you and the closest cellular tower).

So really you setup WhatsApp on the S21 with a different WhatsApp account to your backup from the S9+? I'm not sure if you can import data from another WhatsApp account. You could try WhatsApp on the S21 using your original account email from the S9+?

FWIW recently I also used Smart Switch to transfer data(including WhatsApp) from a Huawei Mate10 to a Galaxy Note20 Ultra. But my WhatsApp account is linked to my phone number, not Gmail, and that transferred my WhatsApp chats etc. no problem.

Click to expand...

I believe my WhatsApp is linked to my phone number - when I say Gmail I mean the Google drive account it backs up to. I've changed all the settings on my new phone back to the right Google drive but still nothing. I've unistalled it too many times now and have to wait 9 hours for a new verification code.

I bought it online and after some time my phone battery starting having a problem which I showed at the authorized center but not much satisfaction. I don't likes ordering phones online.

I created a channel for your app. Good luck!!

What year and car do you have? Where do you live?
This app is an alternative to just guestimating how often you need to fill up gas based on mileage:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ovz.carscanner&hl=en_US&gl=US
If relies upon a car's OBD (On Board Diagnostics) so it's reading the actual hard data created by your car's integral electronics system. You'll need to purchase an adapter to plug into OBD port itself though:
https://www.amazon.com/Foseal-Impro...e+adapter&qid=1625799247&s=automotive&sr=1-18
The adapter is the physical interface to your car (the ODB port is typically on the driver's side under the dashboard), the app then uses Bluetooth to link up with the adapter.

Try perusing through your A5's Settings menu. There's a Notifications listing to tweak options for the notifications in general, and probably more specifically if you open up the 'SmartThings' app menu in the Apps menu, that's where there are options that pertain just to that app. You can alter how you want things like notifications and app permissions accordingly.
You might find it useful to just sit down and go through all the options in your phone's Settings menu. It's a good way to get familiar with your phone's particular feature set. Note that there are often a lot of contextual options and sub-menus, and some of them need to be accessed in different ways (... some use a gear icon, some a three dot icon, some a hamburger menu, some Google apps/services now just use your account icon. Android user interface rules are pretty chaotic.) Just be careful not to alter too many things at the same time, or at least document what you change. Sometimes you disable an important or necessary service so you want to be able to just enable it again.
You might also want to look through the User Manual for your model:

Hey there.

Well I decided to swap out the battery and naturally as it often is with technology, I was able to access the boot menu, reset the phone, wipe the data cache and get the damn thing working aha

You really should not put apps onto an SD card.

They take a performance hit, whether you notice it or not.

Also, as you have seen for yourself, the space you can save is minimal at best.

Pretty much, you are trying to put 10lbs of potatoes into a 5lbs bag.

The best thing,for any device is to keep the user memory at around 70%.

That is because apps grow as they are used, and when theyare updated.
Some space must be left available for this, and remember that the system apps are always running too, so they will also need some more space sometimes.

This fact became extremely clear to me when I got a new device and had not filled it with myfavorite apps yet.
The apps that I had put on it, that were the same apps as my other devices, would get much bigger on the new device, and faster.

Why?
Well, because there is more space for them to use- and so they do.
An app on a device that is already overfull will be compromised and not able to grow as is intended.

Yes, this situation sucks.
Memory is a premium.
Yes, I have been in your position, what with the low cost devices that I use, that have limited resources.

The simple solutions?
A device with the memory required to handle all the apps that I want, ie. $$$- or multiple devices.

For $40-$50 I can get another device, and have great performance for my apps.

A bit of a pain?
Sure.
But nothing compared to trying to move apps around with poor results and then constantly monitiring (or trying to) how much memory each app is using.

I have resisted the urge to get a tablet, as they cost much more than a phone that has better specs.

Use your SD card for personal media- pics, videos, documennts, etc.

Use the internal memory for apps.
If there is not enough room, then you need less apps or more memory.

Still, your best option is to stop trying to use any file manager as a way to access media.

File managers are designed to do just that- manage files- moving them, renaming them, etc.- not to view file after file.

Open your media in a media player to do that.

Simple File Manager Pro and Simple Gallery Pro are both excellent choices that work well together.

Get a SD card, I'll try to post the rest sometime later, a quick internet search or a look on the forums here might be faster though. I'd hate to post the wrong info even though I'm pretty sure I know the answer.

It's been quite awhile lol.

My phone does it by itself, it might be a carrier feature not sure. It just says spam detected, view or dismiss.

Just checked the hamburger menu to see if it was a setting, it says spam & blocked but only shows the messages no other options.

https://specs-tech.com/en/Comparison/zte-blade-a5-2020-vs-zte-avid-579/

I hope others here will verify better, but I suspect the 579 does not support USB OTG connections (On the Go), either because of the hardware or that it runs Android 10 Go Edition (a slimmed back Android OS similar to Nokia 2 series and others).

That link is the closest I can find to verifying that.

ZTE removed most of the specifications on their site.

This also means, as I can recall, the device won't support usb flash drives or MHL TV connections.

Definitely check for OTG capable devices if you want to replace.
GSMArena is usually the best source of detailed device info, but I couldn't find your device listed there.

I want to add some special sound effect on my phone while unlock/lock.

Hello guys, im new here and in android dev. I am making an app for a school project its basically an user created event app, users can create and apply/register for events. The front page should display all events and if u are logged in you can apply/register for any event on the homepage. I am using firebase for backend. My question is how to display event data on the homepage? Without manually making 10 blocks , i want every event that user creates showing up on homepage. With register button of course . Please help❤️

Hello abilnf, have you managed to access the audio stream of the ongoing phone call communication?

On which platform do you listen to and download audiobooks? If you are an Audible user, you can only play them on limited devices because Audible files have DRM protection. If you want to play your audiobooks on many players without limitation, you should use some tools to remove DRM protection first.
Speaking of the useful tool, you can use DumpMedia Audible Converter to remove DRM protection and convert your files to some common formats. It has a fast conversion speed and won't cause quality loss.
After converting, you can play your Audible books on many players. And you have many choices to select.

I'm not a dev of course, so my advice maybe limited. is your app is trying to override automatic display brightness setting, to dim the display down? Is it happening on certain Android versions, like the more recent ones, e.g. 9, 10, and 11?

One point "block blue light from your screen". Android has that built in, called "Eye Comfort" or similar, in the device's Settings. With various options for it.

Click to expand...

That was one idea in my mind too, but before trying it out I thought let's try doing it manually and I reduced my brightness to the lowest but the popup still came, and it makes sense. The ambient light sensor detects the surrounding light and if it's too bright, it is going to show that popup. Most of the devices are Android 10 and 11 as I can see from stats. And, I know there is a built-in eye care feature in most devices. But they are targeted toward reducing eye strain and protecting eyes. The motive of my app was to help people suffering from migraines. I did good amount of research and there is a specific color of green that helps people with migraines a lot. So hence this app.
