weird are you using a different launcher? and just to be sure have you tried to delete netflix data uninstall and then reinstall netflix?

Your message is a little confusing! By "notification time" I'm assuming you meant tone.

You can set different sounds for different apps via System Settings. Look for Notifications, then find your e-mail app in the list; select it, and you should see its sound setting. Select that and you'll be able to choose whatever tone you want. Repeat for your messages app.

If you're having problems with this, let us know!

Is it possible you have this saved off somewhere or on github? The mediafire links are expired. And I'd like to try to revive this old Merit. =)

Again, how? Did you uninstall apps, either via System Settings or the Play Store, or did you manually delete files? If the latter, what did you delete?

but still stuck on recovery mode any help pls guys

Click to expand...

Hang in there! We'll try to help.

One last thing: which Android version are you using?

Yes it is possible as know that thete are alarm apps available on the Play Store that notify threw the vibrate sencor. However, I don't know of a specific app that does what you want but that doesn't mean this is not one available. Im hearing impaired so I would also be interested in an app like that.

I'd avoid any sort of proprietary fast charging setups. I don't know what technology is used in Samsung's chargers, but Qualcomm's Quick Charge technology is not compatible with Pixel phones.

Make sure to only use chargers which are USB PD (Power Delivery) compliant. If they say PD on them somewhere then they're probably fine but otherwise I'd pass.

the Volterman looks pretty damn cool. sorry but i do not like the Barrady. I'm a feature guy who loves tech. the more you can pack tech in the more i'm sold. the Volterman is expensive, but it seems worth it. my only gripe is that it looks huge!!!!!!

Your prolly right. Ten years ago, I swore I'd never text and now it's second nature. I do, however, whole-heartedly believe that technology will end mankind one way or another.

Is text messaging over WiFi possible with Motorola G7 Power phones?

My text attempts using WiFi result in either ....

1. message not sent
or
2. Message sent, but it actually isn't. (the recipient says he never got the message)

Text messaging over my network works OK.

What gives here ????

Sorry if this is a duplicate. The other forum I posted this in didn't appear active.

I have a lot of picture albums.

When I want to move a picture to an album, I have to individually read through 50 albums one by one to select the right album.

It's because they are not arranged alphabetically.

Can I change the arrangement to alphabetical?

I have a Huawei P Smart with Android version 9.

Thanks for help.

Hi the most android user gets an error while creating messenger account with their phone number the lastest messenger has an error while signing up for an account with phone number
And error called #100 the parameter family_device_id is required

Tye solution is downgrade messenger to previous version and it works fine

Best regards

The issue is still there (I guess fb team is wishing more facebook accounts). Which version of the messenger should I download?

I use Zoom several times a week, mostly from my laptop but occasionally from my phone. You shouldn't worry about that one.

As for malware, remember that even if a scammer has slipped 100 infected apps past the checks that's a miniscule fraction of the almost 3 million apps in the Play Store. And it's not that legitimate apps are being infected, it's trojans (mostly adware) being hidden in apps that have been written for the sole purpose of carrying the malware (usually things that I'd personally have regarded as "junk" anyway). So you don't have to worry that an app from a legit company such as Zoom will turn out to be infected.

(For the record it seems in the last couple of days they've been finding malware in the iOS App Store too. So no matter what platform you are on it's sensible to think about the legitimacy of an app before installing it).

I figured it out, so I'll post it here, in case someone in the future searches for this question:
It is a distance measuring function.

Tap the Ruler-And-Stick "X" looking icon and when it switches to the iPod icon (maybe it is supposed to be a phone icon)- tap the map somewhere. Then tap another spot and it will show the distance between them. (I guess the ruler part of the icon should have tipped me off...)

Pretty Spiffy!

Cococarr1959- I've had this problem, too. (After the ringtone app is removed, I still get the tones going off.) I found some of the left over tones scattered all over the Phone.

Some places I found them were: Phone - Music folder, some in the SD Card - Music folder, some in the Phone - Media - Audio - Ringtones folder & some in the Phone - Music Player folder.

I still have one from a long ago deleted ringtone app that shows up when I wish to set a ringtone. I still have not found it on the phone or SD storage (but I have a junky File Manager app).

I don't know if this will help in your situation, but it's worth a try.
Enjoy Today!

Please open your own thread to get the proper support, this has nothing to do with the original post here.

I can't say anything much about TalkTalk's package as I have never used them. I would usually assume that anyone who knows what they are doing can do better than a provider's package, but that may be a simple option for those who are not so knowledgeable or interested in becoming so.

As for Android devices though, the first thing to remember is that it's not Windows: the architecture is less vulnerable, and many of the threats you guard Windows against do not exist in Android. In particular there are no android viruses. That does not mean that there are no security threats, just that there is no self-propagating malware. In fact your biggest threat is "trojans", where malware is hidden inside an app that you install. So the first line of defence, far more important than any security app, is being sensible about where you install apps from: stick to the Play Store and you are unlikely to encounter malware, while installing apps from sketchy download sites that offer paid apps for free (i.e. already admit to criminal activity) or simply allow anyone to upload anything for others to install... well I'm sure you get the picture. The second line of defence is to be sensible about what apps you install: if a flashlight app is asking for the permission to read your personal information, access your location, install other apps, then either it was written by an incompetent who does not know how permissions work or it's up to no good, and either way you shouldn't install it.

Any "security" app comes a poor third after those 2 principles. To the extent that having used Android for a decade I don't have any such app currently on my phone. If you feel more secure for using something else then go ahead. But do avoid sketchy freeware Chinese "security" apps, especially anything developed by Cheetah Mobile: it doesn't matter how many installs it has, or how many positive reviews they've bought, a security app by definition needs the privileges to own your device and so you must ensure that it comes from a trustworthy source (and not a data-mining operation like CM). AVG will be fine.

As for the other products, Knox is Samsung's brand. I've always thought it was mainly enterprise-oriented (allowing IT managers to remotely manage devices, making it harder to root them) but have never owned a device with it. I have a personal distaste for McAffee after encountering their Windows product. But as noted I don't think you need very much on an Android device as long as you have some sense, so I'm sure either will be fine.

But what do you mean by "developer mode"? Do you mean the developer options menu (which isn't a "mode", just a few extra settings that are normally hidden) or something else (the "Testing" app hidden in the dialer for example - that does change some call-related settings, though not this one, but can mess you up badly if you fiddle with it without knowing what you are doing)?

In any event have you tried using the call forwarding settings to see whether you can reset this, e.g. set it to divert all calls somewhere and then turn that off again?

I guess the Chinese company that makes AirDroid wants to improve their monetization at any cost. Sort of like Cheetah Mobile, etc.

I did read this recent XDA Devs post about AirDroid earlier, when I was doing my research about it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/airdroid/airdroid-using-tencent-servers-t3955631
"I've been setting up firewall blocking on my router using ASUSWRT-Merlin with Skynet firewall. I decided to block a whole bunch of countries that I deemed unnecessary/risky for security, including China.
Turns out, blocking China prevents AirDroid from working - it can't even log in."

You are forbidden to use an iPhone to post here

It's not doable once your gallery has 1000 or more pictures. Maybe it's ok for selected folders with a few photos, but if you create a drag and drop feature, you also have to think about the possibility to save the setting because if you accidentally select another sorting option, your previous sorting by drag and drop will be lost.

I have a ZTE Blade from TracFone. To get rid of that "Tap to Speak" feature, I went to reset and then to reset apps. I tapped that and the feature disappeared.

I have an LG V20, which is the third Android I have owned. Prior to these I had several iPhones over the years. Problem - and this is complicated: I have two sets of CONTACTS on the V 20, and I don't know how either of them got there. When I transferred content from my old V10, there they were.

One of them is a green and white icon and the other is the blue and white icon for Contacts seen in this forum. The "green icon" contacts app says that it is the SYSTEM app, and it cannot be uninstalled and reinstalled. The "blue icon" contacts app is apparently the official Google/Android app.

These are the problems I have been struggling with for months:

• The 'Green' set of contacts has many hundreds of copies of several of the individual contacts, which are the people with whom I communicate the most, and I have no idea why or how these copies are made. I certainly never added them more than once. And I can't get rid of them. They reappear, over and over, after I manually delete them. Thus glut of unnecessary contact duplicates totals several thousand, using up needed space.

• But the main problem is that this 'Green' set (the "system" set) of contacts has serious errors in how the contacts are identified, having somehow pulled content from various fields which are part of the contact's setup for that person -- i.e., it pulls content from the Notes field and the Address field, etc -- and scrambled it in with the person's name. And when I try to send an email to that person, that scrambled mess is what automatically appears in the 'To' field of the email. Example: 'Steven son Baker ICE1 Baker'. Obviously unacceptable, especially for my business contacts.

I have deleted these faulty names manually many times from the 'Green' list of contacts, and they keep coming back -- as if when the list syncs, it is syncing FROM a faulty master list that is stored somewhere and importing them back into my cleaned-up list, instead of the other way around.

Further, the Google email app on my phone defaults to the 'Green icon' set of contacts, instead of to the 'Blue' set which is supposedly the 'Google Contacts' app.

These same errors were also in the 'Blue icon' set of contacts, but I have manually deleted the faulty items in that set and they have not returned, so far. I AM ABLE to access the cleaned-up 'Blue' contacts list ONLY IF I use the Microsoft Outlook Mobile app. I cannot access the relatively clean Blue list from the Google email app, even though this is Google's contact list.

You might wonder why I don't just stop using the Google email app and stick to the Microsoft Outlook Mobile app. Even though the Microsoft Outlook Mobile app is generally superior to the Google email app in its final appearance (e.g., never skips several lines between paragraphs), the Outlook app occasionally has problems with certain kinds of messages -- such as refusing to send some attached image files, sometimes refusing to save to draft on the phone and never saving to draft back to my laptop, etc.

So . . . how do I permanently delete the content in the grossly faulty 'system contacts app' (the 'Green' icon app) so that I can import the relatively clean Google/Android contacts list into the systems app?

I should perhaps mention that both of my email accounts/addresses are gmail accounts attached to the company I own. And also, it is significant (I think) that I have NONE of these problems with either the contacts or the email functions on my laptop computer, which is Microsoft Outlook. I am sorry for the detail here, but it is a complex issue, and it's driving me crazy. Any help would be very much appreciated.

It's become clear, Brockd2020, at least to me, that for whatever reason you're not actually interested in solving the problem--if there is one.

You've been given a definitive solution, one that would work swiftly and completely, yet you ignore it, choosing instead to carry on with 'proof' of an intruder. Keeping in mind that you gave this vile intruder physical access to your phone, the solution offered would give you a fresh start, one in which you've learned your lesson and won't give anyone access to your phone again.

If/when you decide to proceed with the solution offered, rather than continuing to wallow in stress and worry, let us know!
