How to change notification sounds

Yes I tried your instructions and it didn't work. Once my phone updated so many things changed and now I have to learn new ways of doing things.
Okay. As I pointed out, your path may vary, but should be similar to:

System Settings | Apps & notifications | App info | [your app] | App notifications

Start in System Settings. From there, see if you can find something resembling 'app notifications' or just 'notifications.' If you can't...there's something very wrong! I know updates change some things, but eliminating one of Android's built-in features would be a new one on me!

If you want, post screenshots of your system settings. Maybe seeing them would help sort this out.

Help...phone virus!

I found something that had no name, uninstalled it, restarted phone and I think it took care of that popup!
Now to switch cards and test the wifi out! Got to stay more on top of these issues. I rarely used the phone online before, only other issues that I dislike is that if you dont update apps... things start to go haywire!
Question, anyone install Linux on Note3? Or do you recommend another OS? I like to have more control over my phone, mini pc...!

THIS!

This happened to me, as well.

I went so far as to duplicate how I found it, where it was located, and how to delete data vefore uninstalling it.

You would be amazed how many people do an entire factory reset just because of what you did instead.

The force is strong with you.

Android 10

Wondering if anyone has any idea when the new LG G pad tablet will get android 10? It has Android 9 now, and I have not used android in years because I couldn't stand gingerbread version and switched to iOS for my phone and tablet, only got this LG gpad the other day since my iPad pro needs to be repaired, AND the Apple store is closed in Chicago, but I have to say android 9 is very good AND it would be interesting to see if 10 is an improvement or not. I will probably never get an android phone again since i love my iPhone but i do not regret getting this tablet at all, it's a nice size, 10.2 inches, beautiful display, good audio, and seems really fast... Only had it since Saturday though so hopefully my opinion of it doesn't change. Just wish it could sync with the iPhone for sms text messages.

Amazon Kindle and a few other apps keep crashing Android 9.0 x86

Hi all,

I have a Linx 1010B tablet which originally shipped with windows 10. It got quite slow so I decided to install android 9.0 on it (I tried android 7 and 8 as well which didn't resolve the problem I am about to describe).

I am having real problems with the apps. I try to install them, and sometimes apps don't install. I then have to re-install, and usually get a cap at around 8 apps, then the app store gets stuck on 'downloading', '95/99%' or 'installing' and just stays there. I don't know why this is the case and I have reinstalled android about 11 times, trying different versions and settings.

My further problem comes when I manage to download some apps, some work, and others don't. The main one I am interested in is amazon's kindle (so I can read like a tablet), but have a real problem in getting it to work. I have never gotten past the loading screen and it just crashes, in every install. There are a few other apps which just won't open either, and I am not sure if it is a conflict with my device settings or if there is anything I need to change in settings anywhere.

I tried downloading the amazon appstore to install the amazon apps via apk but even that keeps crashing at log screen and won't let me through.

Can anyone help or point me in a direction where I can resolve this issue?

These are my tablet's specs:

  • Intel Atom Quad Core Z3735F up to 1.83 GHz processor
  • 2GB LPDDR3
  • 10.1-inch 16:9 IPS HD (1280 x 800) with 10 point multi-touchscreen
  • Integrated Intel HD Graphics
  • 32GB eMMC storage

erratic apps Android 7 on LG Fiesta 2

Thanks guys;
The LG Fiesta 2 has 2GB RAM (of which 1.5GB is available), and 16GB internal storage (of which 9.8GB is available).
I have not run out of memory or storage. I have a 128GB SD card installed, which I use for all storage (so long as the app allows it).

I would try safe mode, except that if it prevents my audiobook and music apps from running, there is no point in my using the phone. Those are pretty much the two main apps I use.
I don't do any social network apps, don't take many photos. I do use the Google mapping app with GPS.

Since I posted last night, I had another thought: I think I moved some apps to the SD card to free up space on internal storage. I have read that some apps don't like that, so I will move everything back to internal. If that doesn't help, I will try safe mode, but I'll have to use the built-in music player if Poweramp doesn't run in safe mode.

I am leaning towards buying a new phone anyway, but I would like to at least try to fix this one, as it is still performing pretty well (aside from the erratic behaviour). Battery life is still very good - considering the phone is 2yrs old.

Edit: I suppose that a bad connection on the headphone plug could effectively confuse the phone's circuitry into 'thinking' it is receiving signals from the buttons on a wired remote. It looks like that circuit is a very simple DC type that is expecting a specific voltage or current for each button.
While I have been using DeOxit to clean the contacts of my headphone plug and jack, it is still possible there is a bad connection.

request haptic feedback swiping spacebar

As you all know, swiping slowly left on the spacebar lets you go back a few characters to correct a typo. Much easier than trying to tap on the screen. But still it's hard to swipe back just the right amount. Haptic feedback would help.

But I don't want it to be always jerking when I type. Is there a way to enable haptic feedback as I swipe on the spacebar maybe one bump per letter? If not, I'd like to request that as a feature
(this is not just a random request; it's an active area in the automotive space: haptic feedback on the steering wheel)

[SOLVED] Videos play, but there's no sound

Although I have no ChromeBook, I do have to believe that if it has Chrome, then it must also use Android System Webview.

Chrome needs this app in order to function. (In my experience on Android).

What this means is that you should be able to install any browser that also uses Android System Webview.

This is a good thing, because many browsers do, and some of these are much better than Chrome- faster, more secure, less/no tracking, etc.

I'm sure you have heard me repeat myself repeatedly...

I've turned off antivirus (Norton)
I've Installed/Run Bluestacks as an administrator.
I've run the app from the app icon on the desktop as administrator.

I am currently running Nox and have no issues (other than the controls), but prefer Bluestacks.

Got a response.
