No media help

I left my phone for a few minutes and it suddenly muted the sound. I tried rebooting it but that didn't work. I turn all the ringtone and media all the way up but that didn't work. I searched for solutions on google but all they say was that the 'do not disturb ' was on. I checked it and I am sure it wasnt on .It muted the media, so whatever app I use there isn't any sound at all. Even when the screen indicates that the media is ' all up'.There is sound on my earphones but I want to get the problem fixed insteadof just using earphones. My phone is pretty new so I hope someone will help me find a solution to this so I dont have to reset everything again.

Why buy the very expensive Z Flip?

In spite of its price, lack of top end tech and potential vulnerability the Z Flip can be a good choice for someone who travels frequently. Here are some of my reasons for purchasing this phone and my limited experience to date.
Form factor: easily and comfortably slips into pant, jacket pockets. Easily removable from pant pocket without having to release seatbelt while in car or plane. You can't believe what a pleasure it is not having the discomfort of a bulky semi-tablet in your pocket.
Use of Phone While Traveling: whether I am on a plane or train I can place the phone open at 90° on the tray and use it in full-screen or split screen view.
I can make video calls with the phone open at 90° sitting on the tray or normal calls while multitasking on the phone.
I can stand it sideways with a slight bend and watch full-screen videos/movies, similar to a miniature curved PC monitor.
While traveling, I can set the phone on a ledge, table or any other available flat surface to take pictures and videos with no jittering or shake. The easily adjustable angle of the top half gives considerable flexibility in focusing in on the shot.
The slightly slimmer form factor gives a surprisingly better grip when walking and using the open phone.
While the screen is clearly not anywhere as strong as my galaxy S 10+, I have already gotten into the habit of flipping the phone shut when not using it. As such it's screen is only exposed to damage when open.
Unlike the galaxy S 10+ it does have a more pronounced bevel that is raised sufficiently to protect the screen if the phone is dropped while open. One drop for me already
Time will test the durability of the screen and the hinge. In the meantime, happy camper.

11.0.4

If that doesn't help you could try clearing Chrome's cache (harmless). After that clearing Chrome's data (but that will erase history, bookmarks, saved passwords, so make sure you have a backup of anything important), uninstalling/reinstalling Chrome (if you can uninstall it), or a factory reset (which seems a bit extreme for a browser problem). Or use a different browser.

Those are all of the things I can think of that might make any difference.

Android App that saves EXIF Data to Screenshots with Camera?

That's what I'm suggesting... an option in settings that would automatically save screenshots with the name of the foreground app in the file name. Rather than manually having to name it.
Right--but to do that, it has to snoop around your device to see everything you're running, then determine which one is in the foreground.

And how would that work on a split screen, with different apps in each part?

Or just a screenshot of one of your desktops, like:

Transfer data from old phone to Galaxy Z Flip

Nice sharing. To ransfer data from old phone to Galaxy Z Flip, Samsung Smart Switch is great. And if there is a computer, my suggestion is Coolmuster Mobile Transfer. With its help, we can easily access to all data on them and transfer them directly from computer via usb cable or wifi connecting, including app, contacts, sms, music, photos, videos, books, call logs.
smart switch does exactly the same thing. no need for another program. smart switch can transfer and back wirelessly, via usb, and with the computer as well.

Casting to a TV

I bought the “Chromecast like” device on EBay for AU$18.90 (~US$13). A genuine Google device costs about three times as much.

It was described as – “For Chromecast 2 Digital HDMI 1080 Media Video Streamer 2nd Generation AU” and
Package Includes:
1 x MiraScreen Wireless WiFi Display Receiver
1 x USB & WiFi 2in1 Cable
1 x User Manual

Item comes in loose open bag not sealed bag.


See the word “MiraScreen”? Contributor svim wrote that Google no longer supports Miracast so that could be the root of the problem.

Moral of the story- “Don’t buy cheap and nasty”?

Weinstein detours to hospital on way to Riker's Island

I'm afraid that I've been very suspicious of the way he started to need a zimmer frame just as the trial approached. Reminds me of a famous City fraud trial in the UK where one of the defendents was "diagnosed" with dementia during the trial, then made medical history by recovering after being given a non-custodial sentence on compassionate grounds.

It could be that the stress of being caught has taken a toll on him, in which case he's getting a taste of what he's done to others and it's hard to feel much sympathy. But to be honest, given how convenient the timing of his illness is I'll reserve judgement on whether he's really as ill as he acts unless he actually dies.

Financial Management

I looked around and found this webpage. Doubtless you've already seen it, but it's worth a shot. I like to be helpful! :)
Thanks. I haven't seen that list but I'll have a look. Most of these apps are aimed at people living from paycheck to paycheck.

There must be thousands of us out there who don't need to budget. We just need to monitor our accounts so we don't go overdrawn or leave money not gaining interest.
