I was dumping my iphone 12 pro, and going to get the moto g 5g but the size turned me off. Got the pixel 7a, and i'm glad that i did. Sweet phone with no problems, and the 6.1 size works for me. Actually 6.0 would be even better.

Did you develop the round icons with the chrome circle surrounding them? That's what I'm using throughout my Smart Launcher Pro app drawers and on the home screen.

If a Factory Reset won't solve this WiFi and Bluetooth issue, you don't have a lot of options left.
This is budget-class tablet running a Go version of Android -- two significant drawbacks. Being an off-brand tablet the odds are there will never be any long-term support by the manufacturer nor by third-party ROM developers, and on top of that Android Go versions are Google's half-hearted attempt to provide a working operating system for below-spec mobile devices.

Your efforts to find a magic fix for this tablet is likely to fail, it's a tablet that by design is not intended to have very much if any long-term customer support. I'd suggest you drop it off at a local recycling facility and instead focus on buying something that you don't have to struggle with just to use.
Or how recently did you purchase this tablet? If it's still covered by a warranty return it. The expectation is it should be fully functional as is, unless the seller did expressly state there's a problem with it.
If budget is a factor in finding a replacement, try looking at an Amazon Fire tablet. FIreOS is Amazon's user interface that runs on top of basic Android kernel.. There's a lot of Amazon branding but that also results in lower costs for very usable tablets. An equivalent to your Yumkem tablet would be something like this Amazon Fire 10". It's a refurbished by its manufacturer tablet (warranty same as new) on sale for $110:

.....When you start a Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel text editor, you see the message: "Checking for viruses". This means that when you open a file, your antivirus checks it for viruses, etc. and the antivirus add-on is enabled in Office. To me, this feature is for paranoid people and completely useless. Therefore, disabling this software speeded up the work and there were no more freezes.

Puzzling advice depending on just what operating system the OP is running on their PC. If Windows, suggesting someone should just disable AV/malware scanning functionality is a creepy recommendation, it just increases the risk level of their PC to being compromised in some way. Embedded macros in a lot of Word and Excel files are a common occurrence, as are infected macros.

So that's being paranoid? I consider this advice to be covert gaslighting. Yeah, perhaps this will result in solving the OP's lag issue, but at what cost? Both MS Windows and MS Office have been massively popular targets for black hat hackers, and for decades. I'd suggest the OP to keep searching for alternatives, a Core i5 PC with 8GB of RAM and a SSD should be pretty responsive for things like opening MS Office content. The problem only being with specific file types, there has to be a more practical solution.

Stop buying carrier-locked phones, since you're not restricting yourself to always use the same carrier year after year this isn't some kind of FCC matter, it's your responsibility. When you continue buying carrier-locked phones, that can create problems switching carriers. A carrier-locked phone will be running firmware that's branded and customized to meet the needs of a specific carrier's cellular network. The issue being each carrier has its own cellular network that rarely is compatible with other carriers.
Buy carrier-unlocked models instead. You'll likely pay more for a carrier unlocked phone but that also results in you having a lot more options to use different carriers without having to buy a new phone.
(... and that is a debatable issue in that you might pay more for a carrier-unlocked phone up front but in the long term that cost difference isn't a factor. Carrier branded phones may be free or at a nominal price but that's not some kind of charitable PR, you do pay for that phone but its cost is spread throughout the entire contract time period you are 'locked' into paying each month.)

is the app sending and receiving it as sms or mms?

I have contacted Echolink, but because it is a free service, there is rarely an answer. Thanks

Thank you so much. This has irritated me so much! God bless you!

I would leave it also, the only thing being is as it breaks down into small granules they find there way into the living spaces through cracks and holes and may end up as a fine dust on furniture and such.

I also would shop vac if removal is necessary, sweeping up/attempting to make piles is only going to make it air-born and I would be wary of inhaling that stuff !

If you get a chance, just do a Google search for Android Auto issues...

Zedge is a widely recognized platform that offers a vast collection of free ringtones for both Android and iPhone devices. You can browse through different categories or search for specific ringtones.

how about the age old question to root or not to root?

Along with my pre-order for the Fold5, I threw in the official Samsung Fold5 stand and strap case to start me off. No doubt I will be looking to get other cases as the range increases.



MobileFun are offering some different cases, here...

Yep, apps can be very region-specific, too. Depending on your country and cell provider, these may be perfectly harmless apps. With millions of icons out there, it's impossible for anyone to know them all. As @olbriar said, ask the person who installed the app.

I'm glad you figured it out... and posted the solution so other members with a similar problem can search and find this thread! Yeah, I've never had a problem with connecting any phone to my desktop: so long as it's not a USB charging cable (and they exist).

My tablet has no SIM card and accesses messages through my home WiFi network.

How to Cast to Roku From iOS, Android and Windows 10 in 2026

I checked it out and tried what they said. My setting do not include the items they said to use except for "cast" which isn't working. This wouldn't be so frustrating if it never worked, but it did once. That's what I don't understand. I have downloaded many apps that just open up cast. I can do that myself lol. I found one app that mirrors the screen, but no sound, and there is an add every couple minutes.

Yeah that could be any number of apps.
And we're talking about thousands.

from the streaming place :

I have tubi on a firestick. I use a US vpn and a Canadian Amazon account.

I can get it no problem. Firestick quite often will disconest the VPN if I don't use the firestick often enough.

I just reconnect to the VPN and it's fine.

If i try and access tubi and the vpn isn't on, tubi won't show up.

If he's using a free VPN maybe it isn't truly hiding his location.
