well if the do not disturb feature is not randomly turning on then it is not it the issue. have you tried rebooting the phone?

Yes. I've learned that solves many issues, just not this one.

I must have accidentally lowered the alarm volume but I can't figure out how, especially since it happened twice in one week (and never before).

I haven't seen that. S20 5G.

Pull down and tap. You'll find out.
I think it's a text message.

Yes look for another program they are thief's, I had pay one time (livetime) for this program in 2014 that was the rule pay one time and later 2017 my account login everything was gone because they change the rules. Now you must pay each month. I have mail them several time but no answer at all.
I am happy that google throw them out.

It is possible the "peel remote" program made itself look like a pre installed program which makes it harder to find (looks trusted) and harder to uninstall.

ah sorry, my mistake, my phone is actually Y6 2017; I edited the earlier text.

There is a KRIS TV.

Nothing to do with daggers or aviation though.

Thanks, I'll try that app.

Is there a way to retain - or download separately - google maps, speech to text, and maps, but nothing else google?

Here's a post that tells you how to restore the IMEI on Android, but it requires root:

The green droid emoji are still there.

what phone do you have? you might need to flash a firmware update.

edit: there really is no need to start a new thread.....i alerted the mods let's see what they say.

You mentioned being happy with you Z2 Force, Motorola is making some good phones and at reasonable prices, with running relatively clean versions of Android so a phone like their latest offering the Edge Plus might something to look into:

Not at £1,000 I am afraid. I am far to cheap to spend a grand on a phone.
For the rest of the info - thank you. I knew there was a website that listed features

I have ordered a Ulefone Armor 7 which as far as I can tell ticks all the boxes I want. Surprisingly enough the newer ones didn't tick the boxes which seemed a bit wierd

I shall see what its like when it arrives

I saw your sharable link & I enjoy your meme.Memes are a source of laughter rather than a friend’s joke. Life without memes is quite hard to imagine nowadays. One of the most popular in trending section is the iPhone vs Android memes.Memes are the ultimate source of entertainment for the following users. These memes are one hundred percent relatable and make you laugh until your stomach hurts.

after looking at the picture, are you sure it is a notification? because those icons are not at the top notification bar. it is not where the time and signal strength is. maybe this is on the homescreen? if so, then it might be an app.

Actually looking again those aren't even notifications: they are not in a bar at the very top of the screen. It looks more like a widget or bar of app icons, which also explains the consistency of the icon themes.

But if those are from an icon pack then it's impossible for anyone to say what the specific app is, since they won't be the original app icons. I should have spotted this sooner, as it's something I do myself...

Thank You Madasa for these caveats & suggestions.

Following your suggestion, I've been studying the Chinese brands that you mentioned. So far, it seems one gets very good specifications for reasonable money. I will assume tech support is non-existant, but there's always Android Forums to the rescue. (And the people here have given me far more useful support than the manufacturer of my existing phone possibly could.)

The Poco X3 NFC that you mentioned looks amazing for the money. The only place I've found it for sale so far is eBay, shipped form China. I couldn't find the pricing & purchase information on the Mi site. Hopefully soon a US vendor will have it.

I had a moment of guilt about buying a Chinese phone until I searched where the USA brand names & Nokia (Finland name) brands are physically made. (So much for that guilt.) I was surprised to find the Moto name is now owned by Lenovo & Nokia name is owned by a different Finish company.

Thankfully, my wife let me hijack her phone so I don't have to be in a giant rush to choose. Soon, but not an emergency.

Awesome!!! Thank you so much!

I think what you are seeing is Android trying to preload your most recent/most used apps. Part of the OS memory management is to keep as much memory active as possible to make the device responsive and efficient. It's not actually running but simply cached in active memory. If any part of the screen recorder is needed by any other app as a shared service, it will also be listed as "running" when it's actually not.

Understood! Thank you very much!!
