Help Charging while powered off causes shutdown

If your device is shutting down when you try to charge it while it's powered off, there might be a few reasons for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow:

1. **Check the Charger and Cable:** Ensure that you are using a compatible charger and cable. Using a low-quality or damaged charger and cable can cause charging issues.

2. **Inspect the Charging Port:** Inspect the charging port of your device for any dust, lint, or debris. Use a small, gentle brush or compressed air to clean out the port, ensuring there is a good connection between the charger and the device.

3. **Try a Different Outlet:** Sometimes, the problem might be with the power outlet. Try plugging the charger into a different outlet to see if the issue persists.

4. **Restart Your Device:** Before charging, turn on your device and then turn it off again. Sometimes, performing a soft reset can resolve temporary issues.

5. **Update Software:** Check if there are any software updates available for your device. Software glitches can sometimes cause charging problems, and updating your device's software might fix the issue.

6. **Perform a Hard Reset:** If restarting doesn't work, try performing a hard reset. This process varies between devices, so refer to your device's manual or official website for instructions on how to perform a hard reset.

7. **Check for Hardware Issues:** If the problem persists, there might be an underlying hardware issue. It could be a faulty battery, charging port, or other internal component. In this case, it's best to contact the device manufacturer or visit an authorized service center for professional assistance.

Remember, if your device is still under warranty, it's advisable to seek help from the manufacturer or authorized service provider to avoid voiding the warranty.

Hidden (I hope) night mode for Moto G Play camera

Should I just get a night vision apk? Would it even work if this 2021 doesn't have the technology? Do we have to call the $6,000,000 man?
On my Moto G Stylus, there's no special hardware. The Night Vision Mode holds the "shutter" open longer. Maybe the aperture gets wider, too.
There has to be at least a little light and you have to hold the camera very steady for quite a while for a photo in very low light. It does take good photos in very low light- assuming I hold the camera very still or prop my arm on something.

To Find Night Vision Mode:
On the Moto G Stylus that I have, it's found by opening the Camera app, then tapping the square that is made of 9 dots. It's under Photo Modes and has a icon that looks like a crescent moon.

Manual Mode:
Maybe, if your camera has a Manual Mode, you can pick settings to accomplish a night photo.

On the Moto G Stylus that I have, Manual Mode is found by opening the camera and looking at the icons in the top row when in Photo Mode. It is the one that looks like a file folder and has an "A" in it. Tap it & choose "Manual" from the drop-down.

The "A" turns in to an "M". Than you can set stuff from the list that appears on the right side.

I Hope This Is Helpful!

Please Enjoy Today,
Paul

WIFI or Provider's Network?

In the upper right you should see WiFi, cellular and battery icons - mine is showing silent mode, WiFi, cellular and battery in that order. If WiFi is off it won't show. If you're in airplane mode cellular won't show but a little airplane will, they change depending on what's turned on or off.

If you pull down twice from the top you should be able to see what WiFi network you're connected to.

Off topic I am afraid. This thread is about the Fold Beta update.

You could start a thread about this for your particular model and carrier or do a Google search as I am sure that you are not the first person to ask this. This is the Smartphones forum on here... Smartphones

[EDIT] I notice that the stable update for Android 14, One UI 6.0 is currently being rolled out so beta is now obsolete. See... https://www.androidpolice.com/samsung-galaxy-s23-stable-one-ui-6-update-live/

Off topic I am afraid. This thread is about the Fold Beta update.

Besides, I am U.K. based and Europe outlawed carrier locked phones years ago as, "being against consumer interests".

Help with rooting of a China bought Samsung Galaxy A54

I am back. Just wanted to say hi. The problem I had was somewhat fixed once I moved here in Italy. I say somewhat because though I can finalluy use it, etc. It still will not let me put in my province of residence or my carrier. Both show up as being in China. And in trying to use the Microsoft Windows Phone app it won't let me use it since it says, "We can't connect to your Android because you are trying to access your Android outside of China...." Obviously something in my phone says I'm supposed to be in China.
