what is this 'ams_vault folder'

Hi. I just wanted to ask what is this 'ams_vault folder'? I saw this folder in my files recently? Plz help. I think I got a little paranoid. In recent days I just downloaded avast, avg security, 360 security and then I deleted them. Can these apps make 'ams_vault' folder?I also have a secure folder
no idea. why do you ask? just delete it.

Icon notification identification

there is an edit button.....just an fyi;)

I’d love to be able to ask and know I would get an honest answer. If I knew I would I would not be in here.
i get it, but 9 out 10 when this question pops up, it goes unanswered. like i said there are millions of apps with their own notification icons, so unless it is something popular, it will be very hard for us to know exactly.

also it seems we get this question when the icon has a heart in it. i guess some folks associate that with love and relationships. but also keep in mind that it could also mean health and or fitness as well.

and i'm sorry about your distrust of the other person whose phone we are talking about.

but you never know, you might get lucky and someone will recognize it.

.....either way i wish you luck

Help Android Phone's sd card as an Windows drive letter?

What I mean is that when the sd card is installed into Android Phone's SD slot, can I then mount a Windows 10 drive letter to it?

No you can't. You could remove the card and use an SD card reader instead. Why do you need the SD to have a drive letter? Driver letters is a Windows only thing isn't it? I don't use Windows myself.

I presume it's really because you don't have Google Play Store on the P40?

FYI Here's a Phandroid article about how to install the Google Play Store on the Huawei P40.
https://phandroid.com/2020/07/20/how-to-install-the-google-play-store-on-the-huawei-p40/

I live in Oaxaca, Mexico, and asked around for an Android Wizard. I went to see Alejandro for help doing Googlefier or one of the other methods. I'm 79 and even when I was eighteen I didn't know bupkis about smartphone. Alejandro said he couldn't do it so I am living with my p40 pro without Google Mobile Services. I can manage and now that we have a Chinese agent as president-elect in the U.S. perhaps Huawei will get access to Google again.

Calls Through PC?

These are the WiFi calling instructions for the Verizon S5, but since you're not using Verizon your current carrier might not support it:

  • For Wi-Fi Calling to work, verify:
    • Wi-Fi is turned on and connected.
    • HD Voice is activated first while in the Verizon wireless coverage area (can't be activated internationally).
  • Wi-Fi calls always originate in the US, even when you're outside of the US.
    • Calls to US numbers are not billed (except for 411 or other premium calls).
    • Calls to international numbers are billed according to your international long distance plan.

Galaxy S5 WiFi Calling:
  1. From the Home screen, navigate: Apps > Settings > Advanced Calling.
    These instructions apply to Standard mode only.
  2. Tap Wi-Fi Calling.
  3. Tap the Wi-Fi Calling switch to turn on or off.
    If activating Wi-Fi Calling for the first time:
    1. Tap Activate Wi-Fi Calling.
    2. Review the Terms & Conditions then tap CONTINUE.
      Ensure the Terms & Conditions option is checked.
    3. Enter the emergency location information (E911) address then tap SAVE.
      This info gets transmitted to the emergency dispatcher for all 911 Wi-Fi calls. If address validation fails, you'll be required to re-enter a valid address.
      Upon successful validation of the address, Wi-Fi Calling turns on.

To select your calling preference while traveling outside the Verizon wireless coverage area or internationally, ensure Wi-Fi calling is turned on, tap When Roaming, select 'Prefer Other Cellular Networks' or 'Prefer Wi-Fi' then restart the device.
