Calander isc files

-- If you look in your Settings >> Accounts >> Google menu, is syncing enabled for the Calendar entry?
-- Also, if you start up the Calendar app, in the hamburger menu in the upper left (three horizontal lines icon) is your email address showing properly? Are items like Events, Reminders, Birthdays, etc. checked so they're visible?

-- You also make references to text messaging. If look in you Settings >> Apps menu, find and open the entry for your texting app, look in the Permissions. Is the Calendar entry enabled?

Galaxy a5

I have a galaxy a5 and I flashed a twrp rom and Its stuck in recovery is not seadroid enforcing, and unfortunately the volume dow isn't working, do you know of any way to get into odin mode?

Just to clarify as it's not apparent just how you're attempting to get into Download mode (a.k.a. Odin mode), the default buttons to get into different modes for your S5
Recovery mode -- power up your phone while simultaneously holding down the Volume Up, the Home, and the Power buttons
Download mode -- power up your phone while simultaneously holding down the Volume Down, the Home, and the Power buttons.
That said, if your Volume Down button isn't working try pulling the battery out for several minutes and then try to boot up into Download mode again. (... in the event this is just a one-off hardware glitch -- leaving the battery out long enough should allow any residual power to drain out that might be retained by internal components like a capacitor). If the Volume switch has been a problem previously though, this might indicate other issues. Maybe try picking up a can of aerosol contact cleaner, readily available at any computer retail store like Fry's, MicroCenter, Best Buy, etc. If there's some kind of build-up or just too much pocket lint on the actual metal contacts inside the Volume switch itself, the contact cleaner solvent might be able to clean it up. (... don't use in an enclosed space or around a baby, there's a toxic stew of chemicals in the solvent).

Help Android browser switching phone to silent mode

weird....never heard of this. @Trom makes a great suggestion. but i would clear cache for the browser as well.

so there are two things you can also try if clearing cache does not work:

1. put the phone in safe mode. this will will not allow any third party apps to run. if it happens in safe mode then, something is wrong. it could be either a hardware issue or software and a factory reset might be needed. if nothing happens while in safe mode, then yes something was installed onto your phone to cause it. it could be a rogue app or something more nefarious.

2.factory reset. this should work as well, provided that this is a software issue and not hardware.

Unrooting a phone

"Flashing" is a general terms for updated the system partitions. It can mean inserting an individual app (via a custom version of the system recovery module) or overwriting the partitions completely with new system images. In the context of unrooting it means the latter.

Unrooting means undoing changes that the user made in order to "root" the phone, i.e. gain administrator access. Generally the simplest way to do this is to "flash" a set of stock software, i.e. completely replace the modified software with a copy of the vendor's original software.

Lock Individual Apps on Samsung S8

Hi Dannydet

I set up a lock screen from the very first day.
However, my real issue is that irrespective how strong the password is there are a number of options to bypass (unlock) screen on S8.
Samsung inbuilt Email app does not have an option for a password protection – and that is why I am trying to ascertain if there is a reliable third party app that can lock up Samsung Email app.

Regards
David
this looks promising:

there are other app locks you can get on the play store as well.

Root E5 cruise

Hi . I need to root. E5 cruise
Isn't possible. Per protocol of the branded mobile provider, the Moto E5 Cruise is not supported by Motorola's bootloader unlocking portal. There is no known exploit, hack or circumvention to unlock the bootloader. As such, it is not possible to attain either systemless or system-wide root due to the inability to modify or alter the device's partitions.

"Add RAMs"

I guess we'll just have to contact the isp and find out what they can do (and get paid for) to speed up things. I hope they have a good solution that doesn't cost too much. Still, out in the sticks people are probably lucky to have this much. Wait...is that the Pony Express rider?
