Apps Hosting Android Emulator on Webpage

I agree with you, I am also not very good at creating codes, but I also asked for help from my friend-colleague.
He said that my project was too difficult to do with javascript , and he offered me 28Msec so that I could find the web hosting I needed instead of using AFAIK. So I have been using it since January and so far everything is fine. So before you try to do this, find out if AFAIK can pull this hosting emulator in javascript... although maybe if you were able to somehow do it on the javascript engine, then share with me how you did it! I'll be really interested to hear about it..

Help Scammers/Spammers

Don't feel bad.
I get annoying e-mails for my father, from the political party that he claims to be a part of.

He is 75.
He does not use e-mail, or the internet.
He cannot remember his e-mail address, let alone mine.
He donates no money.
We are at odds politically.

How did this political party (better said as scammers looking for donations supposedly for this political party) get my e-mail, and why are they asking for my father by name on my e-mail account?!?
Oh, I can relate! To some of it, anyway. :)

I get mail addressed to my mother, offering everything from life insurance to credit cards, hearing tests to funeral plots. Mom died in 2013.

I get mail addressed to my brother. As above, plus information on planning for Medicare. He died in 2014. He'll never see 65--he killed himself at 56.

My mom, I was really proud of her, and I've written about her before, I'm sure. She used computers from their early days--BUT they always ran the dreaded micro$oft so-called operating systems. She did everything, from e-mail to playing games. When she was 80, I wiped window$ off her computer and replaced it with my favorite Linux distro, Kubuntu. She asked what I was doing and I said I was upgrading her computer. :)

Afterward, with no instruction, I let her have at it. I had configured it to only have one desktop--since that's all window$ users could have, and I didn't want her getting confused by accidentally switching to another desktop--and I made its UI familiar to her, with a taskbar on the bottom, a cascading menu, etc. I installed things she was already using, like SeaMonkey (or whatever it was called back then) browser and e-mail client, games that I thought she'd like, an office suite, etc. She had ZERO problems. Her one ongoing complaint? "It's too fast!!" :eek: She couldn't believe that her slow, cumbersome computer had magically turned into a fast, blazing, easy to use version. Loved it! :D

Removing Clipboard button when tapping for writing

Hello everyone, as the title is trying to explain, on my new Samsung s20 Fe (Android 11) there's this very annoying function, where once I'm about to write something appears the buttons "paste/Clipboard" or just "Clipboard" covering a good size of the space where usually messages are displayed. On my previous Android 9 this wasn't happening. Does anyone know how to disable this function at all? Thanks for the eventual help
does it do this on every place where you need to type? or only on certain apps? have you tried rebooting the phone? also try wiping cache and data for the keyboard as well as any app where this is happening.

App to find my car that uses bluetooth to remember location?

Yes, the car has to be on for bluetooth to connect to my car. I'm saying that when my car turns off and my phone disconnects because the car is off, my phone should automatically obtain my gps coordinates so I can find my car later.

I don't think there's any specific app that does that, but maybe it could be implemented with Tasker or Macrodroid? And something like this will very likely not be useful in an underground or multi-story car oark.

Do you often forget where you left your car?

Help Can't find Smart Stay feature on Galaxy s20 FE

Thanks for your response. It's not quite the feature I was looking for. The "keep screen on while viewing" feature only works if it's detecting your face. If you look away the screen sleeps again. Maybe that's what Smart Stay does anyway, but I was hoping for a solution that would allow for the screen to stay on during an ongoing call until I ended the call. BTW, I use Bluetooth earbuds and want to be able to keep the numeric pad visible during a call. Appreciate your feedback. Thanks again.

Help Wifi Calling Support - Honor Play COR-L29 and ATT prepaid.

Do you know if the Honor Play is actually supposed to support WiFi calling with US carriers, like AT&T? Because AFAIK this phone was mainly distributed in Asia, like India, Pakistan, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Where carriers don't provide WiFi calling services, and so for this these countries, phones don't have carrier WiFi calling included. Same with phones intended for mainland China, they don't support carrier WiFi calling. And "29" in Huawei's variant codes means it's an international model, rather than specifically for the US. e.g. variant code "00" is China.


I don't know...well I do sorta.

I know my phone has settings for wireless calling but not accessible through standard means, I cannot drill down through settings to find them, instead I have to ask google to "take me to my wireless calling settings"...or use a third party app to access it. It seems to be a hidden menu inside the network area where it should reside. AND according to the manufacturer's recent 2020 update log they added functionality for all wireless calling...which was previously only available on certain carriers in certain places. SO, supposedly yes, it supports it and while it may be a International model(which I did not know, it was totally sold to me on Amazon 2 years ago as a US phone for US carriers including 100% support for AT&T). I have literally never had this phone not be able to do a thing I wanted to do until now...and really the only reason I want wireless calling is because my bank is being lame and not allowing Authentication for phones via anything other than text...and I live in the boonies with no signal for MILES...and it would be nice to use text/talk features on my phones that supports all my blue tooth headsets.

Anyway I digress. Thanks for the hint though. I will be visiting the AT& T store and trying a new sim out, to see if it is the 4 year old sim card I am using or not...it is from my old phone and it is BYOP(bring your own phone...sim). We shall see.
Thanks again.

GPS Auto-off - Auto-on on Maps open/close

Simply having the GPS radio enabled doesn't really use any power unless an app is actively polling for a precise location fix. It's not like Bluetooth which constantly scans for devices in range. GPS is completely idle until it's being used by an app.

Tasker may be able to automate it but I'm not sure it's really worth the effort. In fact, Tasker checking for conditions may wind up using more power than the idling GPS would.
that's a good point about tasker.....and i agree with about gps......i just wonder if it affects the s7 more being it is pretty old by now and does not have a removable battery.
