I have tried the cm launcher but there are other things inside that launcher and there are ads also. And I just want to change the app icons now in the drawer and am still trying to figure out how. Plus the icons I did find that I liked didn't have the full set of icons I needed even for basic apps. Which sucked so I remove the icon set. Wish they had the full set of icons but nope. So now I will still need to find the full set of icons and then still figure out how to change the drawer icons.

I need to use an SMB share from my NAS mounted to my Android Pie (MIUI 10.3) and access the file share from a bash script. I thought it would be a good idea to use the X-plore file explorer for the mounting and then use the mounted SMB file share from Termux. I can mount the file share in X-plore, but I don't find the mount point in the file system. Anyone knows where X-plore mounts the shares?
I do not even see where X-plore installs and stores user data.

Your app you’re trying to install may not be incompatible with your device. If you tell the us your divice, and the version of the app, the solution will be found soon.

I appologize for being to lazy to look it up, but does your phone provide for an external SD card?

It would be great for you, even though you don't seem to have a ton of personal stuff on your internal memory.

First, that is more than 1GB that can be moved out of the internal memory.

Second, it would allow for easy separation of your personal files.

Since you are on Android 6, I assume that you have a built in storage system setting that allows you to clear the system cache right from the phone storage page (see photo above)?

Just touch the cache area, and a notice saying that you will clear the cache should pop up.

Go ahead and do it, if you haven't already.

That can easily be up to or more than 1GB.

Now, go into your file manager, and look under your normal internal storage at a folder called DCIM.
Insure that 'show hidden files' is active on your file manager.
(Simple Mobile Tools makes an excellent File Manager, btw)

Inside, there should be a file/folder called thumbnails or .thumbnails
( . files are only visable if you have allowed 'show hidden files')

This is where every single thumbnail for each photo, video, avatar, ad, etc. is stored.

I have seen this useless junk file get to over 3GB!

Delete that crap.

Now back out one step to the DCIM folder, and add your own file-

.thumbnails

and save it.

This will prevent more thumbnails from being saved.

Yes, some galleries and video players really need thumbnails, and will start up slow without them.

If that is the case, get a new gallery and a new video player!

Once again, Simple Mobile Tools makes an excellent Gallery (pro version) and X-Player will play virtually any video that you throw at it.

Drawbacks?
Thumbnails allow for the retrieval of photos that have been deleted by accident.

But Simple Gallery Pro has a Recycle Bin, where everything you delete goes before it is permanently deleted.

So, no real drawbacks as far as I can tell.

New update being rolled out for Android 9. See... T-Mobile (USA) update 9.0.16

Well... that now definitely confirms the rumours that have abounded for the last couple of months, that the OnePlus 6T T-Mobile (USA) carrier minority variant would not receive an update to Android 10 until Q1 of 2020, (Jan: - Mar: 2020).

I had the same problems as percifield in the above post but the solution they provided did not work for me.
I was about to give up and factory reset the phone. So to make the phone ready for this I backed-up all the media I had on the phone. Then I decided to try a few things.

What I did first was to open settings\storage and then "Format USB storage"
On the next screen, it says " Erase all USB storage? You will lose all stored data" with a button "Format USB storage"

After hitting the button a message pops up telling me this will erase all media (photos music etc) from the phone.
I proceed and after completing the operation I was able to access the gallery and I could see that it didn't actually delete any photos or music that I had stored but it did fix the problem. So I can now take photos again and remove and add new music to the phone again.

I really hope this helps someone else out there solve a very frustrating problem and stops you from buying a new phone when you don't need to.

I have rather liked South Park over the years, and there's a couple of episodes are my favourites, HumancentiPad, and the one about Scientology are absolutely hilarious. There was a recent episode called Band In China, that I liked.

it is a modified version of android. like @Dannydet mentions it will be around android 4 or so. it is not a complete version though as many things have been modified to it so it is hard to say exactly.

This last post looks like the info I have been looking for...is it still current and applicable to updating my t520 now that it seems there are apps that do not support kitkat? This would also be my first attempt at something of this magnitude.

welcome to AF!!!!!!!

i believe it should still work. but before doing anything please read up as much as you can before getting your root on. and please feel free to ask here if you have any questions.

.....good luck

Newer is not necessarily better. Good on you and your E4Plus.

I left it over night and its come back on surprisingly I've managed to wipe it clean and I'll see how it goes last night it wouldn't do anything st all

So has anyone updated recently? Seems there are some major changes such as P2P share networking:

I did load up your project, but unfortunately was not able to build it, due to various configuration problems. In any case I do all my Android coding in Java, and I'm not that familiar with Kotlin. Sorry.
You may want to post here the relevant code snippets concerned with updating the Textview. Someone might be able to spot your problem.

Version nine. Not sure if thats the problem though. Hithrto ive always gotten a different notification tone and iirc when i tried to turn up this laughing sound the volume didnt increase any.

maybe this article might help you:
https://www.howtogeek.com/271519/how-to-fix-the-screen-overlay-detected-error-on-android/
basically it is settings>apps>advanced>special app access>display over apps. is this where you see that the apps are greyed out so there is no way to toggle it on or off?

I checked out the link above. That's my problem for sure. I played around some more with the settings, I got it to work, but I'm not sure what I did to get it to work.
Thanks

eah, I think that's a bit of an oversight on the forum's part - I suspect it's because the code blocks are really only used in the dev sub-forum, but maybe it could be added in a sticky? (I don't remember ever reading one with that note)

It is in a sticky, but nobody bothers to read it

Definitely restart it.

That is like giving vitamins to a cheap phone.

Not knocking them, I use them too.

And it is working, correct?
Even when it says it is disconnected?

As long as it works I wouldn't worry too much.

I have a device that I use on Wi-Fi only, and when I am downloading apps from an app store it tells me that Wi-Fi is disconnected.

Wi-Fi is all it has, there is no SIM- no cellular service- and the downloads proceed just fine.

Just wondering...
How does one download their own self made APK's?
Like, say if I have a game or even Playstore (and the other services)... can I make my own APKs and give out?
Just wondering where these clever people go the linked APK's from?

Click to expand...

I'm interpreting this quite differently from @svim, i.e., that you're just wanting to know how to create an APK from an existing app. If that's not correct, skip the rest of this!

I create mine very easily--by using file managers that do it for me. It's an 'app backup' feature in them. (This has saved my ass in the past.) Note, though, that I basically only use paid apps, and wouldn't consider sharing their APKs with anyone.

I was a programmer and sysadmin on UNIX and Linux. Even though Android is a Linux, and writing apps for it should be pretty easy, my circumstances have changed and stuff like that isn't in the cards for me. Right now. So instead of learning how to do it myself, I let apps I paid for do it for me.
