Need ADMIN/MOD Support

Hi.
Obviously I have access to my account, however because I logged in with Google ages ago, I left the 2FA active.

I need to deactivate this because
1. I don't want my Gmail exposed
2. I can't log in with a browser.

Oddly enough, I'm able to bypass 2fa by logging into the app.

Just need it disabled to update my email. I believe this happened in the past, but not sure if it was here, basically I can't find the help request thread I posted.

I'll disable 2fa for you, though the response here from @svim is spot on.

Samsung Galaxy A8 Touchscreen randomly unresponsive?

Hi all,
So I just fixed and replaced the screen/digitizer on my Samsung Galaxy A8 phone and I am now met with the problem that the touchscreen randomly doesn't work.
The issue works somewhat like this:
Upon pressing the power button to unlock the phone, the touchscreen will not work and is unresponsive to my touch, however - pressing the power button to lock it again, then pressing the power button once more to wake it once more leads to the touchscreen working perfectly fine, this will usually work for the duration that the phone is unlocked, however upon locking again and attempting to unlock to use the phone once more, the screen will be unresponsive once more - rinse and repeat.
It's getting very irritating and I was wondering if there was some sort of fix?
Thanks,
-Jack

Help Screen Mirroring

How do you know if it was owned previously? A hard reset should clear any old data though you said it was brand new..... so I'm confused

OK, I'm back to this thread. Don't ask me how being locked inside during a Coronavirus scare keeps me even busier than before.

Even after doing a hard reset, I tried to install Messenger and someone else's name was on the machine. I intend to return it, however, the store that sold it to me is closed down for the time being.

Thanks all your help. I'm ending this thread because I'm going to return the device and I will use a pen tablet my school sent me.

Nokia 6 misbehaving during update

couple of things. first off i do not have your phone. second usually there is two parts to the update procedure. you will first be asked if you want to download the update. next you will then be offered if you want to install the update. if you were installing the update, then you do not need wifi as it has already been downloaded. it is possible that it was able to download, but because of the interruption, the download might have been corrupted.

you will most likely need to reflash the firmware update. i have no idea how to do that on a nokia.

i found this, but i'm not sure if it will work or not:

how to save user input in RecyclerView

Hello everyone. I add “Employee” to the SQLite database. When adding an employee to the database, the user must fill in the fields that relate to the employee, for example, first name, last name, salary, etc. The employee has several attributes such as "skill" and "department" of these attributes the employee may have several, so when the user fills in all the fields with attributes he is invited to add another field, for example, the field "skill" to add another "skill", such a field " skill "you can add as much as you want and I implemented it with RecyclerView. But the problem is this: when the user wants to add another "skill" field, an empty EditText appears and the user fills this field with data, but I don’t know how to save this line, because when you click add skill an empty line is transferred to the adapter, then the user fills this line, but how to save this line to the list that contains the adapter I can not figure out




This is Adapter class

public class AdapterAddSkill extends RecyclerView.Adapter<AdapterAddSkill.MyViewHolderAddEmployee> {
private ArrayList<String> skillsList;
private Context context;

public AdapterAddSkill(ArrayList<String> skillsList, Context context) {
this.skillsList = skillsList;
this.context = context;
}

@NonNull
@override
public MyViewHolderAddEmployee onCreateViewHolder(@NonNull ViewGroup parent, int viewType) {
View view = LayoutInflater.from(parent.getContext()).inflate(R.layout.card_skill, parent, false);
return new MyViewHolderAddEmployee(view);
}

@override
public void onBindViewHolder(@NonNull MyViewHolderAddEmployee holder, final int position) {
holder.closeCard.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@override
public void onClick(View v) {
skillsList.remove(position);
notifyDataSetChanged();
}
});
}

@override
public int getItemCount() {
return skillsList.size();
}

@override
public long getItemId(int position) {
return position;
}

@override
public int getItemViewType(int position) {
return position;
}



public static class MyViewHolderAddEmployee extends RecyclerView.ViewHolder {
private ImageButton closeCard;
private EditText skillEditText;

public MyViewHolderAddEmployee(@NonNull View itemView) {
super(itemView);
closeCard = itemView.findViewById(R.id.deleteSkillCard);
skillEditText = itemView.findViewById(R.id.skillText);
}
}
}

Here is the activity in which the user fills in the data about the employee and adds it to the database

public class AddEmploy extends AppCompatActivity {
private EditText nameEditText, lastNameEditText, employeeIdEditText,
salaryEditText, departmentEditText, skillEditText;
private ArrayList<String> skillsList = new ArrayList<>();
private ArrayList<String> departmentsList = new ArrayList<>();
private AdapterAddSkill adapterAddSkill;
private RecyclerView skillRecyclerView;
private AdapterAddDepartment adapterAddDepartment;
private RecyclerView departmentRecyclerView;


@override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_add_employ);
getSupportActionBar().setDisplayHomeAsUpEnabled(true);
nameEditText = findViewById(R.id.name);
lastNameEditText = findViewById(R.id.lastName);
employeeIdEditText = findViewById(R.id.employeeId);
salaryEditText = findViewById(R.id.salary);
departmentEditText = findViewById(R.id.department);
skillEditText = findViewById(R.id.skill);
skillRecyclerView = findViewById(R.id.rv_skill);
departmentRecyclerView = findViewById(R.id.rv_department);
adapterAddSkill = new AdapterAddSkill(skillsList, this);
adapterAddDepartment = new AdapterAddDepartment(departmentsList, this);
skillRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));
departmentRecyclerView.setLayoutManager(new LinearLayoutManager(this));
skillRecyclerView.setAdapter(adapterAddSkill);
departmentRecyclerView.setAdapter(adapterAddDepartment);

}

public void onClickBtn(View view) {
switch (view.getId()) {
case R.id.addDepartmentText:
departmentsList.add("");
adapterAddDepartment.notifyDataSetChanged();
break;
case R.id.addSkillText:
skillsList.add("");
adapterAddSkill.notifyDataSetChanged();
break;
case R.id.saveEmployee_info:
addEmployToDatabase();
addDepartmentToDatabase();
addSkillToDatabase();
}
}

@override
public boolean onOptionsItemSelected(@NonNull MenuItem item) {
int id = item.getItemId();
if (id == android.R.id.home) {
finish();
}
return super.onOptionsItemSelected(item);
}

private void addEmployToDatabase() {
String employeeId = employeeIdEditText.getText().toString();
String name = nameEditText.getText().toString();
String lastName = lastNameEditText.getText().toString();
String salary = salaryEditText.getText().toString();
MyQuery.addEmployee(new Employ(employeeId, name, lastName, salary));
}

private void addSkillToDatabase() {
String employeeId = employeeIdEditText.getText().toString();
String skill = skillEditText.getText().toString();
MyQuery.addSkill(new Skill(employeeId, skill));
for (int i = 0; i < skillsList.size(); i++) {
MyQuery.addSkill(new Skill(employeeIdEditText.getText().toString()
, skillsList.get(i)));
}
}

private void addDepartmentToDatabase() {
String department = departmentEditText.getText().toString();
String employeeId = employeeIdEditText.getText().toString();
MyQuery.addDepartment(new Department(employeeId, department));
for (int i = 0; i < departmentsList.size(); i++) {
MyQuery.addDepartment(new Department(employeeIdEditText.getText().toString(),
departmentsList.get(i)));
}
}

private void showAllEmployees() {
List<Employ> employs = MyQuery.getAllEmployees();
for (int i = 0; i < employs.size(); i++) {
Log.i(".......Employees", employs.get(i).toString());
}
}

private void showAllSkills() {
List<Skill> skills = MyQuery.getAllSkills();
for (int i = 0; i < skills.size(); i++) {
Log.i("......Skills", skills.get(i).toString());
}
}

private void showAllDepartments() {
List<Department> departments = MyQuery.getAllDepartments();

}
}

Help One Plus 5TGuest mode removal?

Hi all,



I'm struggling with a technical issue that I've been trying to get rid of. I'm using a One Plus 5T and I want to completely disable/delete guest mode/ guest users. I'm using android 9.

I know you can remove it, under settings, but it doesn't actually remove it from the system.

A solution I found was by rooting the phone and going into the deeper system settings and changing a couple of values.



My phone is no longer in warranty, but I have never rooted a phone and don't want to take the risk in bricking it, especially now.



Lastly, I was wondering if there's a way to have certain apps act as system admins regardless of what user the app is originally installed on. For example, having app locker app apply to the guest user, if possible.



Please let me know your thoughts!

Connected, no internet

When I try to get online it displays the above. My other devices work OK.
I've experienced the same thing recently--even posted about it! Two phones, literally side by side, out of the blue one of them loses its Internet connection. It's still connected to Wi-Fi, still connected to my network, but without Internet connectivity. Since ALL other devices in the house continue working fine, it can't be a router/modem/Wi-Fi network/Internet service problem, as I see it. Therefore, doing things like rebooting routers/modems/etc. has no effect.

For me, it tends to happen at night--and I take it as a hint to put the damn phone down and wind things up for the night! By morning, it's "fixed" itself again. *shrug*
I've searched all the setting s but can't fix it.
No, and you won't. I mean, at least in my case, there is nothing wrong, therefore there's nothing to fix. Every setting is exactly the same as right now, as I type this...but it loses its Internet connection. :thinking:

Don't get me wrong, though. Doing all those things won't hurt anything and may, for you, solve the problem. So by all means, follow the advice given in this thread--just know that, for me, none of it makes the slightest difference.

Help lost SD card

As side information, I was recently urged to log in to my Samsung Account before it was automatically closed for lack of use. I last had a Samsung device 4 to 5 years ago. I found I still have 15 GB of storage there as part of Samsung Cloud, so along with free Google One / Google Drive that's 30 GB +.

It does sound like your SD Card is going kaputnik, but apparently their customer service is second to none for genuinely purchased cards / any physical storage. Though they can fail early, if it's only a year old....

You could install their SanDisk Memory Zone app and see if that recognises the card still.

I haven't activated a Samsung account - I try to keep things as simple as I can, which isn't easy to do these days! I might check out the SanDisk app, but a new card is only around $8 so it may not be worth the effort to pursue any further.

Thanks for all the help and suggestions!

Google 1 autobackup

Yeah I guess the Google 1 subscription just guarantees maximum quality level backup across the field, up to whatever storage you've paid for. Outside of that, the storage limits will kick in in different ways for different people. I have a G 1 sub, and I like you I still have some life left in my "new phone" no storage limit deal. And I suppose for many people they just won't be bothered about the reduced storage quality anyway.
