Need Help Disabling the Multi User in Android 7

I wanted to disable the multi-user feature in Android in my both Motorola phones, one has Android 5.1 and other has Android 7. I have been successful in Android 5.1 phone through the CMD command using ADB tools, the command I ran is this to disable it:

db shell settings put global guest_user_enabled 0

And the result is this that the user icon under the notification swipe on the top right does not work now it does not do anything when tapped. Video is attached.

Now the same command I am running in my Android 7 phone is not working and the user panel is same as it is, this is where I need your help, what wrong am I doing or is there any change in the command that is need to be done. I just want it disabled like in Android 5.1.

What Alarm App is Going Off?!

If your 'normal' tone is set as the defaut tone, then it will be the sound that you hear.

Generally this can carry over from app to app.

All I can tell you is ro go through each app you have installed to figure it out, or better yet to enter the Developers Options and go into running services- maybe even right before the alarm goes off.

An app like this will probably run constantly, so it should show up anyway- but most likely will be obvious while the alarm is actually going off.

You may even need to wait until that moment and then select Running Services to find it.

Oh, no. Not a Note 5. ANYTHING but that. It has no microSD slot, so 64GB is all you will ever have without cloud storage. Note 8 is getting very inexpensive right now, and prices for the Note 9 (which I greatly prefer) will plummet in late August/early September after the release of the Note 20. I recommend keeping your Note 4 and avoiding the Note 5 at all costs.


Lol :)

I agree, thsts why I didn't upgrade when the N5 was released. I would prefer a newer device but the bootloaders are all locked and I'm not willing to give up custom recovery nor root.
Hopefully I'll find a better alternative to the N5. The lack of expandable storage is such a downer. :(

Charging phone whilst switched on?

.....
Will it charge when it is switched on or must I switch it off always first? So far I have only charged it when it os off and it takes about 80 minutes to charge to 100% from say 9% full.
I use a 2 amp? charger which did not come with the phone.
.....

-- Yes, you should power off your phone when charging it. The charging circuitry will be able to function in a more optimal setting when the phone is powered off. But here in the real world we all have other things going on all the time so it's just not practical to do everything in such a manner. Most of us just plug our phones in when the battery needs a charge up, and for the most part that's quite adequate. So don't worry if you do or don't power off your phone, that's a minor point. Just keeping your battery continuously charged up is the biggest factor to help its overall life span.
-- Taking 80 minutes to charge the battery that much is a typical amount of time. Any battery that's in it single digits of capacity is going to take a while to charge up, and it's important to also take into consideration that your phone is over five years old and as smartphone batteries age it's not just that they don't hold a charge as well they also take longer to charge back up. It's unavoidable. (Unless you've had the original battery replaced with new one at some point):

-- Your phone most likely came with a 5 volt/1 amp adapter, that's the default charger that most manufacturers were including at that time. If you're using a 2 amp charger, keep using that one. It's not going to hurt anything and the battery is going to charge up faster than if you use that older 1 amp adapter.

Huawei(Honor 8x) GPS power issue

Please post here if you find an answer. Same issue here - and I wrote the mapping app I use! Seems the gps is truned off the instant you press the on-off button or when the screen times out. One solution I found was to set the screen timeout to 'never', set the brightness to low (but not too low that you can never see it to revert back!) and never touch the on-off button, and carry a space battery block with you. I intend to put an option in my app that blacks out the screen (tap to get the screen back) - that way it uses less power. Oh - and go in to the battery settings, App launch, and set the app to 'Manage manually'.

Can I plz get more info on how to properly use Android forums?

Welcome to Android Forums, superandroninja! It's good to see a former lurker become a member and start participating. :)
i was trying to post a question within a string of questions within a specific forum.
I believe you're referring to this post, which created its own thread on the LG Leon board.

You're apparently looking for info/help with an LG Phoenix 3 [LG M150]. It looks like that doesn't have its own board, but you're welcome to ask questions on our Android Help board. Just use the 'add post' button and fire away!

It's always helpful to provide as many details as possible. So give it a descriptive title, state the problem you're having, and tell us about your device [name, its Android version, whether it's rooted]. We'll try to help!
