I don't think I could use the YouTube streaming app, as I don't have a data plan with TracFone. While the amount of data used for streaming music is much lower than for video, I would surely run through more than $10/mo in data usage. If music streaming ever becomes a thing for me, I will need to move away from TF and get with VZ, AT&T or other such carrier who offers unlimited data plans. But for now, I am saving $$$ using TF, even if I consider what I have been spending for music from iTunes (download, not streaming).

In the end, I probably won't keep Spotify once the 90-day free trial ends. I have always been, and will most likely continue to be a fan of purchase & download music from the likes of iTunes.

The main point was NewPipe.
It allows for downloading.

Find yourself some free Wi-Fi (at home, a hotel, a local Wal-Mart, a library, McDonald's, etc.) and have at it.

Sounds like the SD became corrupted, or has failed completely. How long have you been using it?

Updating the OS seemed to be the answer. Mine is a new tablet (but an old model which I thought was already updated). Thank you.

I'm also uncertain what your mean by "Safe mode loop". Its a term used in reference to PS4
If a PlayStation 4 system is only able to boot into Safe Mode (creating a 'Safe Mode loop'), this is a sign that an error is preventing safe start up and so I'm assuming you're LG Aristo 3 is stuck in safe mode.

"To get out of Safe Mode, please try the following.

1. Touch and Hold the "Power" key.

2. Tap "Power Off".

3. Once the phone is off, Touch and Hold the "Power" key again to restart.

The phone should now be out of "Safe Mode".

If the "Safe Mode" is still running after you restart your phone, I would then check to make sure your "Volume Down" button is not stuck. Check to see if it has anything stuck in it as well, dust, etc. Anything like this can cause the phone to go into, and get stuck in, "Safe Mode".


If that doesn't work try this...

Use the "Status Bar" to turn off "Safe Mode'. Pull down (swipe) the "Status Bar" of your phone. Now tap the "Safe Mode" button. This should turn "Safe Mode" off. Now your phone will automatically restart, so that it boots up out of "Safe Mode".

And lastly...


If you want to get rid of/disable "Safe Mode".

1. First turn off the phone.

2. Next press and hold "Power" until you see the manufacturers logo on the screen, then release the power button.

3. "Quickly" press "Volume Down" and hold it for few seconds until you see the message "Safe Mode: OFF" or something similar.

4. If you wanted re-enable it, simply repeat the steps above, and you should see "Safe mode: ON" rather than off."

If you have no choice but to factory reset your device be aware of Google FRP lock or youll be locked out of your device permanently.

With dual SIM you can have use two numbers, that's the main point in having it.

The new Realme 6i, 6 and 6 Pro look great for the money and recently went on sale in the UK via shipping.

So are you enjoying a 5i ?

Did you get a good warranty and recent updates? No information about those here.

Thanks for sharing

I don't have "preferences" on my phone. There is "advanced Wi-Fi"; only thing "possible" is Notify whena open wi-fi- is available". I thought that meant when it finds it teels me and that's it. Perhaps not.I turned that off but it made no difference.

As for the router, it says it's connected to it so re-starting it shouldn't make a difference. And I don't want the hassle of re-starting the router and modem and maybe having a problem with the computer. I avoid touching things that are working.

even though it says connected it could still be the router. rebooting does nothing to your other devices. i periodically reboot my router with no issues as far as my other devices....it can't hurt and might help.

@Hadron thank you very much for the speedy response. It is a NA phone, so I should have asked for recommendations on where else to ask the question and appreciate you pointing out xda-developers. Thankfully not falling not yet. Cheers.

As I said, the Galaxy store App is perfectly kosher and everything got solved once my phone got upgraded.

To update how Outlook contacts etc worked for me on Samsung S20. I installed Outlook on my Samsung S20+ phone, added 2 MS accounts and 2 ISP accounts. Went through settings. All contacts are working perfectly, and Emails, Calendar and Tasks. Syncing with my MS Windows 10 laptop and my wonderful Nokia Lumia 830 Windows 8.1 phone. So I'm happy with that.

That often means that app is not compatible with Android 10....
Contact the app developer to fix it

You can also check to see if your tv and phone support screen mirroring. It can be called different names by different brands but it works well. I'm not familiar with your phone, but some devices also will let you output video from your USB port to HDMI but you need that special cable. Check to make sure first because not all phones have that feature.

That is built into the OS. You'd have to root the device in order to change it
