yeah never used alexa on my phone. the google assistant works fairly well when i have used it. but i rarely do though. i can use google assistant when i'm driving and have the windows down with radio blasting and the wind blowing and it still picks up my voice pretty well.

not sure if that is because of my phonee, the note 10+ or it is because google assistant works that well.

There are apps designed to help with this.
Not exactly how you ask, but by limiting what apps can run when, and for how long.

It is development phase so if you need better your own pixel art tool.
You can give feedback to tell me know to update it base on.
Because when it become stable or more user it will very hard to update.

I think I need this. Will download this in a bit.

Also, I recently got yet another device.
This means that I go back and check out apps that I have passed up on before with other devices.

So, I put NoRoot Firewall, my standard firewall, and then also installed NetGuard- to see if new updates and the different OS would have any effect.

NetGuard is great, but it does use about twice the memory of NoRoot.

This has been my experience between the two with all of my devices.

hi everyone, a question, I noticed that in the videos going from 2x in FHD 60 to 3X there is a huge difference in quality, recording with 2X of zoom the image seems mixed and not sharp while with the 3X zoom it is much more clear, why? thank you very much

ciao a tutti, una domanda, ho notato che nei video passando dai 2x in FHD 60 ai 3X c'è una differenza enorme di qualità, registrando con 2X di zoom l'immagine sembra impastata non nitida mentre con lo zoom a 3X è molto più nitida, come mai? grazie mille

2x zoom is not optical while 3x is?

Is Bixby a guy?

I've seen various factory fitted Android consoles in cars, and quite frankly the only times I've seen them showing live video from a camera, is when reverse gear is engaged, to show video from a rear facing camera. Which is used to aid in reversing of course.

Back to 40 hours starting yesterday.

I didn't trust myself either the horrors...the horrors... so I got one of the built-in case ones. This case is waterproof and the circle seems t be under another layer.

AUE1 available for U.K. S21 series on Vodafone carrier branded phones with CSC code VOD.

That completes the roll-out for the U.K.

Over 100 AUE1 roll-outs have now been completed worldwide, to regions, countries and carriers for the global, Exynos, S21 series.

Not too shabby for a firmware with a 1st May build date that only started rolling out 12 days ago.

It did come up again over the weekend, I told them the DoB from my previous post, confirmed that I was 121 years old (it asked), done.

Reminded me of the early days of targetted ads, where some browsers asked you to provide some information about yourself to help make ads more relevant to you. I always told them I was an unmarried centenarian living in Antarctica with no money and no interests, and let them do what they liked with that.

If you can install WhatsApp can you not manually copy the WhatsApp files from your old phone (via USB to a computer and back, or using a flash drive and an OTG adapter) and tell it to restore from the most recent backup (WhatsApp should be taking daily backups and keeping the last 7 days, that is the default behaviour)?

Apologies if you've tried that, but all we know is that you've tried "many methods", not what those are.

I found this forum which was 2017, but doesn't have a clear answer that works for A8. Does anyone have any ideas? Is this problem slightly worse on Samsung models, or the A8 specifically?
thanks.

Ok, I figured out a way (I hope). I kind of got clever. So, what I did was I wiped their phones clean and installed mmguardian on them from scratch during the setup of the phone. (They had a way of tapping the screen during setup that brought up a qr code window that installed it during the initial setup of the phone to make it more integrated.) This part lets me know what the kids are doing on the phone. But, we're not always watching it. So, I installed tasker on their phones and restricted their access to it. But what Tasker is doing is writing a line to a text file every 2 minutes with the date and time. Then I used Drop Sync to sync that file to my Dropbox account. My computer is, of course, connected to that dropbox account. So, I wrote a shell script that constantly monitors that file and, if the hour in the file becomes too old, send me an alert via email. If the time stops incrementing in the file, that means the kids are up to something and turned it off or wiped the phone. They won't know how to setup tasker and dropbox sync to get these files to generate again.

I'm stuck on the script a little. I'm trying to write it so it will send me a text message or an email when it notices something wrong... but I'm stuck on that. But, at the least, these files are generating and the script, minus the email alert, is working. I'm sure I'll figure out the rest of the script.

Well, as you may find in another thread, my quest to use Straight Talk was fruitless.

Not only did I purchase a device, but also was required to purchase airtime in order to activate it.

After wasting 12 hours I gave up, and requested a refund.
Of course, the device is not returnable- devices out of the box are only able to be exchanged- all I wanted was the money I spent for the worthless airtime.

That was another multi-day struggle and debacle that wasted multiple hours online as well as 2 hours of Dingtone credits for phone calls.

I have since tried to get my free cellular service transfered to another carrier, as Q-Link cannot seem to be reached or get it together.

This caused more frustration, as Q-Link is not only unreachable by customers, but by anybody.
They have not turned off my service (law requires them to after 30 days of non-use), and will not respond to requests for transfer from other companies.

As you can only have one free government cellular plan, and Q-Link refuses to follow the law and disconnect mine, all the carriers see that I already have an active device on the program.

It matters not that I have had no useable service since morning, April 2nd.

nope without an unlocked bootloader, there is not much you can do.

even if you could unlock the bootloader and root the device.....there are no devs supporting this phone. so there really is not much you can do with it.

I wish I'd known this earlier. Just bought an S7 and have the same issue.
Does anyone know if it's a software issue or the phone itself?

Hey @joe71 , I've never tried thoughs. Are they good? I notice you bought a second one so how long do they last? Thanks
