this phone is an Samsung S7 and yes my settings menu is very sparse. Anything can do to fix this issue?

I'm still trying to work out what exactly you've got there, and from what I've seen so far. It could be a fake Samsung S7? Like the fact it doesn't have SAMSUNG at the top, and the Settings menu has abnormally few items on it. Where did you buy this phone?


This shows the main problem I'm having with your S7 Edge. And now why I think it could be a counterfeit, and isn't what it seems.

What I know as an S7 Edge. "SAMSUNG"

Your phone. No "SAMSUNG"
The positioning of the camera and sensors is different as well. Also the clock on yours is on the left, it should be on the right on this phone(when running stock Samsung firmware).

EDIT: Your phone actually looks more like a Galaxy S8 Edge. Although that still doesn't account for so few menu items in the Settings.

Voice Mail Notification Repeater

Voice mail is usually controlled at the carrier level, so finding an app that interacts with it is going to be very very slim....

Ah, thanks Danny. I guess that explains why it's hard to find an app for this lol. I'll just have to occassionally check for the

icon whenever I leave my phone, or I'm in a place with no signal or super noisey etc.

I'll keep searching though, seems like a good app to have it it's possible to create one

H96 Max X3 Android Box - how to power off TV

How do I get the H96 Max X3 to power off my TV when I turn off the box?

There does not seem to be a CEC HDMI setting under Droid Settings or in any other menu

Likely because it doesn't support CEC, I don't think any of these cheap Android boxes do. I got a T95 box and that doesn't have CEC. But I remote control it with the IR blaster in my Huawei phone, and that can remote control the TV as well, including OFF and ON.

A10e sim problem

61H--925DNL._AC_SX679_.jpg


it seems like the back don't come off..

FYI the phone's back is very firmly glued in place. That's why you need the correct tools and methods to disassemble it without damaging anything.

Is there a competent phone tech in your area? The sort of place that might do battery and screen replacement work. Maybe they can disassemble the phone and retrieve your SIM?

Lock Screen Pin Security Flaw

Nice, I'll check out lineage. Looking forward to getting back into custom roms. I almost never used a phone with it's stock os before a couple years ago. And I've had a lot of them... I might even still have my g1 somewhere in storage, it would be fun to see what I could do with it.

Cant connect my phone to audio call. Only media.

Try rebooting the Huawei phone?

FWIW I paired a Huawei Mate 10 with Samsung Galaxy Buds+(got free with a new Galaxy Note20 Ultra), and that seemed to work for both phone audio and media audio. Although it wasn't immediately obvious how to get the Galaxy Buds into pairing mode when they're not used with a Samsung Galaxy device. Have to put them in your ears, and then touch both buds simultaneously for about 5 seconds. Usually with these types of things, you just press and hold a button on the charging case. But the Galaxy Buds doesn't have a button on the charging case.
just curious. don't you still need samsung's app to help pair the buds? or is manually the only option?

Help CNN from Tunein on Google devices not working

Thanks. Weird, indeed. Is there any way I can stream it using voice commands. I can get the CNN YouTube channel on my hub, but not live broadcasts. I do not have a YouTube TV subscription.
live tv of cnn will not happen unless you have something like directv or other cable companies that allow you to stream live broadcasts via there apps. i have a sirius subscription and i can get live audio of cnn broadcasts.

but like i said you should be able to get tunein to play cnn.....you just can't do it verbally.

Cannot get Android File Transfer to connect to my tablet

Have you enabled the developer options menu on your tablet (go to the software information in the "About..." part of the settings, find the build number and tap repeatedly on it until it tells you you are now a developer - for some reason Google think this is cute)? In there you should be able to set the default USB connection mode to file transfer or MTP, after which whenever you plug it into the Mac (with the Android's screen unlocked, of course) it should just connect without you needing to do anything.

Well I'm back at this again, and totally lost in it. Sometimes the tablet will give a notice I cannot connect usb to it and allow it on the next try, but now it's just not allowing it at all and I've been trying all morning. I've gone back into the developer thing and cannot find any way to set default USB mode to anything. Why do they have to make it so hard?

This was working yesterday, but not today and I've done nothing different. Should I restart my Mac? Already restarted the tablet, to no effect. I'm just lost here.

+ in voicemail cause issues

On my Pixel 5 on Google Fi here in the US, both the Voicemail and Recents tabs show numbers with the (correct) '+1' prefix.

Try opening the Phone app, tapping the three-dot menu button at the top right, then navigating to Settings > Assisted dialing. You may want to check to confirm that Assisted Dialing is enabled and that the Default Home Country has been correctly selected.

Help How can I completly disable Google Play? It reinstalls itself after I do it.

Yes, I missed that bit. The Play Store does not install games at random. If that is happening it's likely that you've installed something else that is the real cause.

Simple test: re-enable the Play Store and run the phone in safe mode (instructions for entering safe mode vary with the phone, but a web search will produce the instructions for whichever phone you have). What safe mode does is disable all user-installed apps. If you don't suffer these problems in safe mode, and especially if your "random game installs" don't happen, that will mean that the real cause is a user-installed app - the problem then is identifying which one.

sd card only

Hi, nice to meet you. To manage data on the SD Card and the internal memory of your vodafone e8 smartphone, try Android data manager tool. Such tool like Coolmuster Android Assistant can help us access to all data on the SD Card and the internal memory, including contacts, text messages, call logs, apps, ebooks, music, videos, photos, etc. Just have a try and hope this will be your help.
cheers i don't want to put any more apps on my phone is there a pc utility
