Hello,

Yesterday my Freemobile from France arrived here.

You can save with it tons of money in the US and Canada as well as Mexiko.

https://prepaid-data-sim-card.fandom.com/wiki/France

The 19.99 € (“Forfait Free”) plan includes:

unlimited calls to France and landlines of a lot of countries and mobile lines of a few countries;
unlimited SMS/MMS in France;
100 GB of data in 4G/LTE (on Free network only) and in 3G (Free network + Orange roaming). Speed is reduced to 128 kbps afterwards, but no overcharges apply;
truly unlimited data in 4G/LTE for lines associated with a set-top box (no FUP);
automatic and unlimited connection to EAP-SIM WiFi networks "Freewifi" / "Freewifi_Secure", emitted by all the set-top boxes of the operator (more than 5 million hotspots);
roaming included is an excellent option, as it's not limited to the EU and constantly expanded to overseas countries. The package includes the following:
25 GB of 4G/LTE roaming data on top of your monthly national allowance, in many destinations:
Europe: all EU & EEA countries, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Switzerland, Ukraine, Serbia, Montenegro, Belarus, Macedonia.

Data is heavily charged beyond allowance in roaming destinations (you'll get a text warning before). Some countries are still limited to 3G (like Algeria, Argentina, Pakistan, Bangladesh);
unlimited calls and texts to all of the EU & EEA from within EU & EEA (except from France);
unlimited calls and texts to France and within the roaming country in Israel, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Canada and USA.


I will make calls with it back to US in the future. It will cost me only 30 US-Dollars! 20 Euro. I will use it insteaf of fi. Mexiko,Canada and America are all coverd

Help Phone keeps freezing and rebooting

well for one your phone is over 7 years old!!!!!! i'm surprised it even works. anything new as far as apps and google products can have issues with a phone on a much older os. i would start looking for a new device soon if i were you.

Alcatel OneTouch Idol is not my main phone, I have more phones. I was just curious about what caused the problems because for years it has been working fine with my Google account and only a few days ago, suddenly started having the issues I described.

I suggest you do another factory reset and immediately go to Google PS and disable auto update in the setting. My device is one year newer but it has 3Gb's of ram while your only has 1Gb of ram. Its possible the updates are either incompatible or just to much data for your phone to handle. If that doesn't work you may have to give of Google altogether.

That is a good suggestion. I did what you suggested and other tests, many factory resets to try and isolate the problem. I'll share my findings here, in case someone else comes across a similar issue, it could be helpful for everyone to share our ideas and experiences.

Like you said, after adding my Google account, I went as quickly as possible (before the freeze) to Google Play settings and disabled auto-update for apps. Then, I went to my Google account, where I noticed it was giving a sync error, why I don't know. I disabled (unticked) each one of the several boxes like sync contacts, calendar, etc.

The phone still has many Google services related apps installed. It started to become sluggish until it froze again, back to the endless freeze/reboot cycle. Close but no cigar. It was time to say goodbye to Google's Big Brother eye spying on my phone.

I'm convinced the issue happens due to something related to Google, I wasn't able to find out exactly which part of Google is causing the incompatibility with Jellybean 4.1.1. It would be interesting if someone else found out more about this, out of curiosity.

This time, I didn't add my Google account. I disabled every app I found related to Google, disabled Google location. Instead of Google Play, I installed Amazon Appstore, then I installed Facebook Lite and Facebook Messenger, it's been working great for hours, the operating system is even performing much faster than before with Google.

Thanks all for the replies, the problem seems solved for now, without Google. God bless you Amazon lol. Alcatel OneTouch Idol 7 years old and still going strong <3.

Help disabling data roaming on Nokia 6.1 (Android 10)

I can't see the photo - I think the attaching failed.

Oops - trying again.

I now have "Developer options" enabled, and have turned "Mobile data always active" off.

Nevertheless, I received an SMS from o2 earlier today, welcoming me to Japan - where I've been since March. When I've received these from o2 previously on this trip, it's often been followed by a big bill for data usage.

I've got my network set at "3G" as well to err on the side of ruling out VoLTE.

Creating windows with WindowManager is slow

I have to create several windows in AccessibilityService. I'm doing it now with next code:
WindowManager wm = (WindowManager) getSystemService(WINDOW_SERVICE); wm.addView(view,params);
But the creating\removing windows needs 800-1000ms for creating simple window for now. I've already tried adding WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_HARDWARE_ACCELERATED, but it didn't help.
Maybe there is some tips\tools to make it faster?

Cannot get actual file path from downloads category of File Chooser

I have created an Android Media Player and I have run into a dilemma. I have created a file picker for the mediaplayer but the File chooser intent built into android does not allow me to get actual file path in such format "/storage/emulated/0/etc./" instead it returns the URI path to the file being played. I have created a function to get the real file path for files chosen through file chooser intent which is list below. The short of it is that any file chosen from the recent tab or downloads section of the File Chooser intent it will not get the real file path for any file chosen from those categories within the File Chooser. Is there any way to get the real file path for files chosen from the File Chooser instead of URI's?

Code:
 public static String removableStoragePath;
    public static String sdPath, sdCardLabel;

Crappy signal when you get incliment weather....
Oh, I know all about inclement weather--I had the misfortune of living in Tornado Alley for years. :rolleyes:

But now I'm going to count how many times, since moving home to SoCal in 2006, 'rain fade' [losing the signal] has happened on DirecTV. Ready? Okay, here we go: 1...2... Yep, a whopping TWO times! And neither time caused a full outage, just a few moments of choppy play. The other 99.99% of the time? Rock-solid service with crystal-clear pictures. I'm happy--other than its price. :)

Sync problem on exchange email on moto x

AND NEVERMIND -- it has cleared up on its own. I don't understand, but my emails are coming through again.
When something like that happens, it's very likely due to an update at the server's end. "Oops! That screwed things up! Here let's fix it!--FAST!" as angry users flood their support channels. :o I'm sure you weren't alone. I'm glad it's resolved! :)

Nokia 8.3/AndroidOne v Pixel 3a/stock Android

Having had a Pixel 3a for just over 5 months, I'm still very pleased with it. Moving from HTC after 9 years, ending with the 10, which was 32GB but does cater for an SD card (I had a 16GB card) but had plenty of storage space on both internal shared and the card so I knew that the 64GB Pixel 3a would meet my needs.

I just hope I get better battery life than I had with my HTC M9 and the 10 which both started to fail after two years use.

Only time will tell, but for now I'm more than happy with the Pixel 3a, as is my wife, we had one each.

:)
