Same issue, did any of you find a fix for this?

Milo, on my Motorola One Hyper, running Android 10 with ADW as its launcher, my navigation buttons are as they always were: back, home, recents.

When I set it up, I went here--which is exactly what @Hadron described:

System Settings | System | Gestures | System Navigation

and chose this:

Do the same, and you should have the traditional 3-button navigation.

Thank you for that, I yet explore the system settings on my new phone

I have a couple of phone numbers stored for call forwarding and turning off call forwarding. The phone wants to add country codes when I dial those numbers. How do I turn off assisted dialing? I can't find anything in my phone to shut it down.

Translation: A new driving recorder needs to be added ...

I'm not sure I understand what you're looking for.

I want to have an Android phone on display and restrict to just one one demo website or webpage.

Is this possible?
Is there an app for it?

I'm guessing there must be as shops typically have locked phones in a similar fashion.

NOTE: I don't want a 'demo' mode as such - the website or web page will be used and interacted with.

Thanks.

Yeah, sadly I'm afraid this all fits with what you see.

A quick search turns up these specs for the camera on that phone-

5+ megapixel
LED flash, fixed focus
beauty mode, filters, timer

There's no focus circle because the focus is fixed and not variable.
So not surprisingly, you get what you pay for with a cheap device.

What's new in the version 1.2.1:
- Fixed bug

I suspect that putting the SIM in was pure coincidence - there's really no reason a phone won't boot without a SIM, even less reason it wouldn't even start to turn on. Perhaps leaving it on charge for a bit is what did the trick: when a battery is really flat it may only trickle charge for a bit until it gets into its normal operating range (i.e. the level at which it is safe to charge normally), and it may well not respond to the power button if it's in that state.

I am hooked worse than a crackhed !

Well I've now gone 2 days without Chrome re-enabling itself, and think I understand the pathology.

It seems that Google have decided that I should accept the update even if the app is disabled. As long as I don't uninstall the update it will let me keep the app disabled, but if I uninstall it it will re-enable Chrome 24 hours later and pester me to update it. Of course it used to be that disabling apps automatically uninstalled all updates, so this is two changes Google have made: disabling doesn't remove updates and the system will re-enable an app to force you to install new updates.

As I have a 128GB device (about 29GB free) the extra 40-45 MB this update uses isn't a huge problem for me. But it's still an act of absolute stupidity on Google's part: what does it matter whether a disabled app is up-to-date, since it is disabled? And re-enabling the app to push the update is supremely arrogant, especially since it doesn't disable again once it is updated, which means that if you allow auto updates (the option Google promote) the disabled app would be enabled and updated in the background with no interaction with the user, and remain that way. Plus the Play Store no longer posts notifications to let you know an app has been updated, and if that's also true with auto updates enabled then the user would not even be given an indirect, obscure clue that their choice had been overridden by Google.

So the question of the thread title is answered: it is simple arrogance by Google.

Could be anything. I assume you are worried it's a dating app and afraid to ask the person who sent the screenshot, because that is the usual story (I'm afraid we get these queries most days, and 49 times out of 50 that's the reason). But hearts are used to denote "likes" in many apps, by fitness apps (unlikely to post that many notifications, but who knows?), and many others you wouldn't expect, so it could be many things.

There are unfortunately also a vast number of apps that use such notifications, so you will be lucky if someone recognises this particular one. It may be simpler to ask the person.

As an aside, if it is incriminating they would have to be extremely stupid to send a screenshot with that many of them in the picture...

Welcome to the Facebook app, where you cannot change any of the Facebook app sounds.
There are Facebook alternative apps that you can customize the sounds, such as Metal, Friendly, and others I can't remember...

That's possible. In fact I was sort of thinking along these lines when I speculated about whether it might be running in the background or not. But I didn't fully join the dots because I couldn't see why my phone would be different from anyone else's.

However with Google's "adaptive battery" features battery optimisation is on by default and you have to actively exclude apps from it. I haven't done that for Photos (it's not prevented from running in the background, but neither is it excluded from battery optimisation) so that might explain our different experiences.

Or, your battery could be dying...

On a Galaxy S10, current Android version. Whenever I am on a call and try to use the internet, there is no connection. I will also lose internet on all devices, like my laptop. If I disengage WiFi, it will return (it took weeks to figure that out). I happens in all locations. I have Comcast internet, and the tech told me he'd never heard of this (they're not always a lot of help). Anyone else experience this? Is it a setting on my phone? On the modem (altho, as I said, it does it in other locations)?
