Difference between Youtube and Spotify audio?

I could never get into any Star Wars since the original trilogy. I can't stand the edited trilogy changes either, and own an original unedited VHS set. I did see The Force Awakens, but there was a few off-putting things about it. Killing off Han Solo sure didn't help.

I see a ton of 'baby Yoda' stickers everywhere and I'm outta the loop on that one, but I assume it has a lot to do with a later series in the same universe. For myself, there is only ONE Yoda and he died in Return of the Jedi

Chrome OS / Chromebooks

Mainly I do this because everyone I know calls me for help with their tech. I had not given Chromebook much thought until this opportunity to pick one up, and my brother-in-law says he likes using his, so gotta find out for myself.

In other words: Using the Chromebook for e-mail and browsing is a means to an end, that end being learning about Chromebooks so you can help folks with thier Chromebook.

Please help identify an app icon

Unfortunately, a lot of apps remain from infamous Cheetah Mobile, such as 360 Security, QuickPic Gallery, ES File Explorer, and CCleaner, the latter three having been purchased and ruined by them.

The Go Team, known for infamous Go Launcher EX, Go Locker, and Go SMS Pro, still exist as well, and IIRC had their own dark side as well, but not pulled from Play Store.

Help to find a old game

nickdalzell
If the game is rather old it might not show because your device is running too modern an Android version and the compatibility filter hides it; this also might happen since 32-bit ARM support is fading, and priority is on 64-bit today. Many modern phones/tablets only have 64-bit hardware and 32-bit games won't be able to be installed.

If the game is no longer on the Play Store because it got pulled or the developer got banned, it also won't show. Around 75% of the apps I love no longer exist on the Play Store because they date back to Android 2.3 and are lost to time but thankfully I saved them by backing up their APK files.

speech to text

Ok well. It's not like a phone that has speech to text. But I was able to use it on my keyboard..... which is a Samsung keyboard. I just hit the microphone and I was able to send an email....... so yeah it's different than a phone.
Click to expand...
That was rather cryptic but by searching on keyboard instead of text to speech in the user manual I was able to find references to "Google Voice Typing" and "Voice input" and see that it claims to be possible. How is it "not like a phone that has speech to text", other than needing to use other than the default keyboard?

How to track text like google translate (google lens) does it?

A
I'm trying to get the same quality of text tracking as google translate live camera translation. I want to track text in real time from camera, use ocr to get the string text, process it and then replace it with processed text, making it look seamless.

I know about ML Kit and I tried using it, it works great but I can't get the text to look right. I get the bounding box for the text, and the text itself, I know the position but it's not as accurate as I want it to be and it jumps around.

Ther's also ARCore which is something I think I need for smooth tracking but I'm not sure how to track text with it.

The only thing I could think of is that somehow first I would detect text and then save the image, use it for ARCore and then use that to render processed text on top of it.

I couldn't find much information about this on the internet only the ML Kit text detection and ARCore for tracking specific images. Any references or ideas are highly appreciated!

(I'm making an android app in android studio using java.)

Help Get into a locked Nokia 1.4 (Android 10)

i HAVE the same nokia but I tried all recovery options to boot it in recovery mode and it failed. is there some kind of security in the boot loader that cannot allow this operation. I reallty need help
Click to expand...
What exactly happens when you try? Does it boot normally (like the OP's phone did), or into some other mode that doesn't let you access recovery? Your problem, the OP's and the person who replied to you's might be completely different things, so we need more information to know what's happening and maybe be able to help.
