Using Calendar flexibly

L
Hadron said:
The problem is that you have set these up a repeating events, i.e. the same event occurring regularly. That's why it asks you whether you want to change just one event or all of them.

If you want to cancel one of them, just delete that one. Ifyou want to change just one, tell it you just want to edit that one (or delete that one then add a new event). But it has to ask when you change an event on the sequence because it cannot know until you tell it whether you want to change just one or all of the events.

LOVE your handle!
It does not ask me whether I want to change just one event or all of them. It should... It says "Details//Change all events in the series//Change this and all future events." I understand that to mean "Do you want to change all the upcoming events scheduled for this time, or do you want to change all of those plus the ones in this series whose dates have already occurred?" The calendar does keep past scheduled events -- I'm guessing until the whole month is over.

Samsung Z-Flip doesn't connect to MobileTrand/Dr.Fone

M
Thank you very much for your reply and apologies for my initial posting which is -as I see it now- incomplete. I am using iMac Pro with Catalina and it used to work before the Android update. The connector-message pops up on my Samsung Z Flip but not every time. Just recently my wife bought a Huawei P30 Pro and she switched from Samsung Note 10+. I used my iMac Pro and Dr.Fone for copying her data between those 2 phones and it worked just fine. That tells me the problem must be the Z Flip.

How does it deal with Samsung bloatware?

I made this post under Never Uninstall Apps - SpaceUp, so that is the app being referred to.
But thanks, the one you are recommending looks well worth trying. I'll let you know.

OK, I didn't see that, because I'm just looking at the "What's new" posts section.

I don't use a Samsung phone myself, but Package Disabler Pro has often been recommended on AF.

ListView problem. Cursor gets closed.

M
I am using ListView to display a small list. I know it's on the main thread, but this is not a problem. It used to run under earlier API levels but gives a problem under 27.

Code: 
package com.scorer.tennis;

import android.app.Activity;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.ListView;
import android.widget.SimpleCursorAdapter;

public class LogActivity extends Activity {

    DBAdapter myDb;

    // ***********************************

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_log);

        myDb = new DBAdapter(this);
        myDb.open();

        populateListViewFromDB();
    }

    // ***********************************

    @Override
    protected void onDestroy() {
        super.onDestroy();
        myDb.close();
    }

    // ***********************************

    public void Clear_Log(View view) {
        myDb.Clear_Log();
        finish();
    }

    // ***********************************

    private void populateListViewFromDB() {

        Cursor cursor = myDb.getAllLogRows();

        // Allow activity to manage lifetime of the cursor.
        // DEPRECATED! Runs on the UI thread, OK for small/short queries.
        startManagingCursor(cursor);

        // Setup mapping from cursor to view fields:
        String[] fromFieldNames = new String[]{DBAdapter.KEY_LOG_ID, DBAdapter.KEY_LOG_DATE, DBAdapter.KEY_LOG_TIME, DBAdapter.KEY_LOG_LOG};

        int[] toViewIDs = new int[]{R.id.item_id, R.id.item_date, R.id.item_time, R.id.item_log};

        // Create adapter to many columns of the DB onto elements in the UI.
        SimpleCursorAdapter myCursorAdapter = new SimpleCursorAdapter(this,     // Context
                R.layout.log_item_layout,                                               // Row layout template
                cursor,                                                                 // cursor (set of DB records to map)
                fromFieldNames,                                                         // DB Column names
                toViewIDs);                                                             // View IDs to put information in

        // Set the adapter for the list view
        ListView myList = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.id_log_list);
        myList.setAdapter(myCursorAdapter);
    }
}
On executing the last line (myList.setAdaper...) it bombs out with:

either my Bluestacks version is too Old or the Apk file is too old - which one is it ??????

Check you got the latest version of Bluestacks installed, and if the app still won't install then it's most likely some problem with the APK you're trying to install, maybe it's incompatible or corrupted possibly?
