Lg g6 ghost screening

Hello, i think i have also the same problem on my lg g6 +.
For example when i am watching a page or using an app, after some moments when i return back to home page, i see a bit the shadow of the app or previous page on the top of the background image.
I am really careful about saving battery. Can someone please help he on this issue. I appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

Switch Android to Android Texts back to SMS

The over-riding limitation with text messaging is there's a reliance on SMS and MMS as the only two protocols that all the texting services will support. Apple uses its iMessage protocol as its default, WhatsApp uses its WhatsApp protocol as its default, and just recently Google has been pushing its RCS as a new Android default. iMessage and WhatsApp are closed-source and proprietary, only in play when it's a point-to-point interaction (i.e. Apple user to another Apple user). RCS is not Open Source but Google has licensed it so it can be readily used by any texting service. But Apple has refused to adopt RCS into its iMessage app so at this point RCS is just another texting protocol. SMS and MMS are antiquated and have inherent limitations keeping up with today's technology, but they remain as the tenuous link we all rely upon as far as text messaging.

Your issue appears to be tied to how MMS is transferred. SMS takes up a minimal amount of bandwidth, and it can travel via WiFi, cellular, or Bluetooth connections. MMS messages can involve more bandwidth though, still a relatively low amount, but still more. Within common carriers (both sender and receiver using the same service), you 'might' be successful sending a MMS message over WiFi or cellular but in most cases you do need to use mobile data. Also keep in mind that any iMessage group text (and most Android group texts) are sent as MMS. There's an added issue where iMessage to iMessage and WhatsApp to WhatsApp interactions all take place within either Apple's servers or WhatsApp servers respectively, and that takes place no matter which carrier is in use. A benefit is since each of those closed systems transfer within each system, a user doesn't have to worry so much about file attachment sizes -- i.e. since all iMessage transfers take place within Apple's online servers file attachment limits are quite ample, but with MMS carriers will automatically scale down higher res photos and videos on-the-fly. It all boils down to all these variables are factor and conditional in different ways as to what device you're using and what device your recipient is using.

Text messaging is plagued by corporate oversight, there are multiple players involved and each is opting to use its own standard. Unlike email where that eventually became a common standard (POP and IMAP), by all indications texting doesn't appear to be heading in that same direction. So yeah, with MMS you'll probably need to use mobile data connectivity.

Too many attempts error every morning

Every morning I get the error message that I had too many attempts to use facial or fingerprints to unlock and have to use my pin.

That's not a problem, but I can't figure out the reason for the message. The phone is sitting on my night stand, and I haven't touched it all night.

Does anyone know what's going on?

I have been looking for a few months for an answer to this myself. I wonder if it's a Moto Z4 issue since that's what I have. Sorry I don't have a solution but I'm following here. Not a huge problem, just odd.

Help What happened to HiSuite?

Try another USB cable, and a different USB port on your computer? When you reinstalled HiSuite on your phone, try running it, does it show you an 8 digit number, which you have to enter on the computer HISuite?

FYI I use HiSuite as well.

HiSuite 10.0.1.300_OVE
Huawei Mate 10 ALP-AL00, Android 10.0
MacOS Catalina 10.15.6
My setup is different to yours of course.

I used the right cable. The problem is that HiSuite disappeared from my phone.

topreports.news / taboola popup

So far, no more adware. Might have been my WTForecast. I kind of wish I did the other apps one at a time, Malwarebytes, CCleaner, Popup Ad Detector, and Snoop Snitch. Malwarebytes did end up thinking that 42 of my apps were malware. I deleted some of the ones that I didn't use much, but left the rest. I just did another scan and it found no malware.

As a side note, I'm pretty impressed that this phone is still chugging along. I've had it about 2 and a half years now.

Android 9 : "Battery usage data isn't available"?

never had that happen on my note 10 when it was on pie....nor have i heard that here.....so i would not totally blame this on android. it could a software issue with your specific phone. it happens a lot with off brand phones. keep in mind that manufacture's add in their own stuff on top of the android os......so it could be that rather then blame android.

if a factory reset does not fix your issues then there is not much you can do other then return the phone, if it is still under warranty......or you will just have to learn to deal with it.

GPS accuracy

It should be the same, as I'd expect both to used the "fused location" API (most location-sensitive apps on android do).

I've never seen any difference in accuracy between those 2 apps myself, though I always use GPS-only (i.e. Google location accuracy "off") as the alternative also grants Google permission to collect "anonymous" location information from you ("anonymous" in quotes because research has often shown how easy it is to identify people in "anonymous" datasets, and I don't trust any corporation not to use loopholes in its rules if it decides there is potential profit in doing so).

Battery discharge and recharge

I bought a new Samsung A 40 a few daty ago and find that it discharges quite quickly and doesn't last a full day.

I have also found that despite it having a 'fast charger' and is switched on to fast charging it takes at leat three hours to fully charge it. Is this normal?
depends on how low the battery is. if the charge is at 10% or less, then yeah i can see 3 hours for full charge.....no more then that though.

and i would give the new phone at least a week or two before you finalize your opinion on battery life. battery life is never consistent and will tend to vary from day to day. after a few weeks you should have a better idea on how the battery is. it will also depend on where you are at, what you do on the phone, how good the cell signal strength is, are you using wifi a lot or not.

.......so there are a ton pf variables. give it a few weeks and let us know.

edit: i forgot to mention that with new phones people tend to use it more then normal.....playing with the settings, downloading launchers, apps, games....plus it is that shiny new object, so of course you are gonna use it more at the beginning.
