Probably a smaller app than Textra.

Can block in multiple different ways.

I believe that we've discussed the merits and dislikes of dogs enough in this thread about the 4th of July holiday. Thanks.

I tried the kiss launcher, couldn't get it to do anything, swipe left right up down long press, luckily the only icon that was on the screen was settings, and it worked.

Click to expand...

Yup.
No swiping.
That's exactly why I like it.

Three dots on lower right enters the launcher settings.

Circle on lower left opens the 'app drawer', which is in list form, and scrolls backwards.

Yes, it is very, very strange and different.

But check this out...
Use your old launcher to open settings and get to the app page of any specific app.

Now, do the same thing with KISS instead.

Find your app in the app drawer, and long press it.

External settings is an option right there.

Another cool feature is enter 'apps' in the search bar.
The entire apps settings list immediately opens, without the usual bunk of...
setting
apps
show all apps

KISS also learns your habits, and it becomes such an integral link between the user and device that I can't see how I ever did without it.

The speed and efficency is mind blowing.

Like I said, it took me about 24 hours of use to see that my decision had already been made.

I had tried soooooo many different launchers, weeks of testing and infuriating searching for something that I could relate to.

This one looked so weird, and was so different.
I actually did not like it at all, and fell asleep before I could find and try another launcher.

The more I used the device and in between times searching for yet another launcher, it slowly became clear that I already was using exactly what I was searching for.

Hello everybody, I am very new to android studio and app development in general. I am working in a project which already has developed an app with a lot of features. I shall improve certain features and therefore I need to understand which files and which code are executed at which point in the app. Since there are a lot of different files with complex code, I was wondering if it is possible to see which code (or file) is executed while running/debugging the app?
I read that I could use breakpoints, however it is quite difficult to even find out where even to put the breakpoint if you do not know which file is executed for which feature. Do you have any ideas what I could do?

Ah yes incredible! I've never seen this inversion on an Android device. Could you send me a report using the "send a bug report" function in the main menu (accessible by clicking on the gear wheel)? Thank you!

PS: What is very strange is that you seem to have tested an older version. The presentation has changed since then. The latest version is 3.0.217 ...

Ah. I made a mistake in the urls. I'm sorry:

The latest version is here:

or : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.winstars3.test

Looking for Raspberry Pi Printer Coder

I was wondering if someone can create the printer with raspberry pi ? Will pay the price for the costs of labor, materials, etc. or maybe you can recommend someone to make it? Like this https://exciting.io/2012/04/12/hello-printer/

Odd repeat post. Delete please.

I see that Whatsapp often gets disconnected. I have the habit of browsing Whatsapp on the computer which expects the device app to run always and connected. My mobile is connected to WiFi and not sure why Whatsapp gets recycled automatically.

AUF6 firmware for the carrier branded S21 devices on the the THREE U.K. network has finally just been released for CSC code H3G.

It is a FOTA, (Firmware Over The Air), update and you can check... Settings > Software update... to see if it is available for you. Alternatively, connect your device to Samsung's PC suite, Smart Switch.

Wireless charger should be for all android phones. This is the best technique nowadays.

we get this question almost everyday. the problem is that there are millions upon millions of apps that are out there, each with their own notification icon. the easiest way to find out is to go thru the phone's notifications. but something tells me that this is not your phone. you can just ask the person what it is. unless the notification is from a popular app like youtube or facebook for example, these types of inquiries usually go unanswered.....but you might get lucky and someone here might recognize it.

MIUI version Global 12.5.1 has been installed and has improved the screen look immensely. It seems very stable since this update.

Follow up-

I found both the Tech Armor Ballistic Glass 3D Curved Screen Protector Designed for Samsung Galaxy S21, and the LK Tempered Glass Screen Protectors, will work with the Otterbox Defender. I ended up going with the LK only because the Tech Armor screen protector has a "cut-out" for the fingerprint sensor. It's not a hole in the protector but there is a circle over the sensor that I found distracting. I don't use the fingerprint sensor to unlock my phone, so I wasn't worried about it preventing the sensor from working.

When I use the microphone for messaging in assistant I can't figure out how to backspace only one character. If I press the X in the little arrow box next to the microphone symbol during a message it deletes the entire word. I have to get out of microphone by pressing the back arrow next to Tap to speak to go back to the keyboard to delete one character. Is there a way of deleting only one character in a word while in assistant rather than the whole word? I have Android 6.0 and the newest Google Assistant.

Once I learned that Best Buy's return window was a whopping 15 days, I never bought another thing from them. What if I purchased a gift that wouldn't even be opened in two weeks - and it turned out defective?

As far as extended warranties go, I recommend them. A lot of stuff is garbage these days, and it's good to have recourse. I actually renewed my Ford Explorer's extended warranty for another 50,000 miles because the first extended warranty more than paid for itself. We had a Samsung refrigerator that had to be repaired so many times under the extended warranty that the technician made Samsung buy it back. And they did: full price.

After being disgusted with Squaretrade's decision to eliminate human customer service interactions, I canceled all my Squaretrade warranties and got Asurion Home. It's $25/month but it covers every electronic gadget in the house, no matter how old it is. That's some peace of mind right there.

HI. Sorry to invoke this old thread. I have a S6 Edge with the exact same issue. . Just wanted to know if you found a solution.
I download the correct firmware and pit file.. Odin shows pass. but phone doesnt boot otherwise. Only into Download mode. I suspect the knox warranty has somethin to do with this ?

Click to expand...

why do you suspect knox? is the phone rooted? can you post a screenshot of the odin's complete output?

Wow - we get the odd spam text this side of the pond, but at least they are bulk texts rather than group texts (so you don't receive replies from other people). I suspect that's just because those are cheaper here (and maybe it's the other way round on your side, which is why you get group spam), though for phishing it would be an obvious give-away if you they were visibly sending the message to other people as well as you.

The old rule "never click on a link in an email" applies to texts too. Indeed I get the impression that the scammers are putting more effort into text scams at the moment.

BTW the big one here recently has been a two-stage scam: send a text claiming to be from a delivery company who, for whatever reason, require you to pay a fee to deliver/re-deliver a package. If someone falls for it, the next day you contact them pretending to be their bank (they now know which bank, after all), inform them that you've seen a suspicious transaction (the small fee they paid), confirm to them that this was a scam, tell them that their account is vulnerable, that others have had their accounts cleaned-out, and try to scare them into "temporarily" transferring their funds into a "safe" account while the bank's security team sorts it out...

That's the interpretation of denial. The way he used the if indicates that he doubted it -- that pretty clear.

When their wishes are not consistent with reality, it's usually the reality that has to go. And that in itself accelerates the process of decline. which makes very hard for them to accept that they are not different tan any other dominant civilization.

Hello,

Is there any way i can re-use an existing workmanager for application instances created by multiple tests?.

My issue:
i have multiple unit tests, my first test runs succesfully, next time onwards i face below error.

W/eSync: Can not re-initialize work manager, Robolectric problem?
2021-07-02T19:40:08.323+0530 [DEBUG] [TestEventLogger] java.lang.IllegalStateException: WorkManager is already initialized. Did you try to initialize it manually without disabling WorkManagerInitializer? See WorkManager#initialize(Context, Configuration) or the class level Javadoc for more information.
so can i use re-use an existing workmanager (created during first unit test) for application instances created by multiple tests?

i tried to old work manager instance, that time work manager state is illegalStateException

I still don't know anything about the OPs headset of course. Like is it ACTIVE, like a Gear VR and with it's own displays, processing, and connects to the phone, or PASSIVE, like a Google Cardboard, that relies totally on the phone for all VR display and processing.

FWIW the VR headset I use is completely passive, it's only fabric covered cardboard with two lenses, and I slot the phone in it.

I accepted the pushed update last night and all seemed fine following. This morning I sent a couple of texts only to receive a message that they were pending being sent. I thought nothing about it until my son called my wife asking if all was okay on our end. He had text and called my phone with no response. I checked my phone and my texts were still pending and then I noticed I had no cell service. I had internet service but that was through my local network. I rebooted the phone with zero resolve. I then put my phone into airplane mode and then took it out of airplane mode. A flood of texts flowed in and a number of missed calls and voice mail.
I don't know why the update messed up my phone but the fix was easy enough. I hope my phone was an isolated case but if not... switching to airplane mode and back is the fix.

thank for posting your solution. probably was a glitch in the installation of the update. i'm glad it resolved itself.

Hello, I just did this for my A32 5G & its still telling me the phone is not registered to the network. Very similar situation as wit yours, except I ended up doing a factory reset & the issue still was not resolved. I bought this phone only a few weeks ago & it was working fine up until this morning.

lets discuss your issue in your own thread. its better to have one conversation vs spreading the conversation all over the place.
