Confusion About Apps To SD Card

Many Thanks to each of you for sharing your knowledge. It's always a good day when I get to learn something new.

From reading each of your replies, it seems the safest & ultimately the most convenient plan is to keep the SD as Portable Storage, using it for documents, photos, music and such. Some of the apps let larger, static components go to SD, such as maps, while the application stays on the phone. That's helpful for saving storage.

As Hadron mentioned, internal storage is 128 GB on Moto G Stylus. On the old phone, any apps that allowed it went to SD to keep them isolated from the phone in case they went haywire. But, after reading what Hadron said about only part of the app moving to SD it appears my genius idea was not so genius at all.

Thanks Again All for helping & for the great explanations.

Please Enjoy Today!

One UI 3.0 not showing Battery stats since 2021

It would appear that all those running One UI 3.0 lost their Battery Stats at the start of 2021.

Settings > Battery and device care > Battery Usage since last full charge

Luckily, a fix is available for this bug as described in the following SamMobile article...

I have the same thing going on my phone. Everything on the surface looks ligit but make no mistake about it your phones are compromised. What my wife has done is change the build on my phone and has installed some type of enterprise app that allows her trough some policy crap to have access to just about everything on my device remotely.

Apps Sending button pressed action to another running applications

Dear,

We are working on an application, which can run in parallel with other applications (most likely camera apps). The main goal of our application is: to listen to button press action on a bluetooth paired device, then to send a signal to the RUNNING (on screen) camera app to take the picture. This mean our app serves ONLY as a remote invoker for the camera app to take the picture, whenever user clicks the remote button.

We all know that most of the camera apps listen to action on volume keys (up and down) to take picture. We tried to mimic the user action on volume keys by using the Instrumentation API. However, to use the sendKeyDownUpSync of this API, it requires the INJECT_EVENTS permission, which a 3rd-party application is not normally supposed to have.

Do you have any experience about this topic, could you please enlighten us?

Best regards
Dat

Earbuds Pause/Next/Previous is buggy

I have tried clearing data but this did not remedy the odd behavior.

I also uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, but that did not remedy either.

In addition, I uninstalled the app and installed ANOTHER MP3 player, but the odd behavior still remains, leading me to believe it has nothing to do with the app, but rather it's something to do with a system setting that somehow, without my knowledge or awareness got changed.

Anyone have any ideas?

TIA
Ken

Incorrect use of root or even deleting important system files
Install bad Custom Rom etc.
Incorrect repartition with odin already

bluetooth connection with G8/G8X

I have a LG G8 and a LG G8X both running android 10. I can pair my bluetooth headset with each. However, when I turn on my bluetooth headset, it will only connect with one of my devices. I have tried this with four different bluetooth headsets to no avail. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Many BT headphones and speakers will only connect to one device at a time. However I know that Bose QC2 and Sony WH-1000XM3 headphones can connect to two devices at a time.
