Yes. I want to populate spinner with records from database.

Under Navigation Settings-> Google Assistant Settings
Option for Getting around
2 questions:
How do you get to work most days: Drive a Car
How do you usually get around other places: Change it to drive a car from Walking.

I have dealt with this annoying issue for too long before I just found this setting.

Thank you. I'm not sure. I have to look for that app.

Most likely that "OEM" battery is fake.

I have no doubt that all of these "OEM" batteries are fake.

But who knows, sometimes the Chinese make pretty good knock offs. Some times the supplier factories still keep making them. Who knows. Without being involved in the battery industry and becoming intimately familiar with the supply chain, there is no way for us to know. I think it's basically a crap shoot. Which is why I bought (3) batteries when I only need 1 or maybe 2 right now.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks
I did have to reinstall my banking app .
Not the end of the world if i cannot get the lock screen off probally better for security but ticked the max amount of locked screen off but its still locking after a short time like 2 mins .
Phones still good and happy i got rid of the annoying pop up on the screen .
Might look at upgrading in the near future .

So I had my Vivo phone for a couple of months now, originally I installed the 4G card in the Slot 1, reception quality is good outside but in the underground parking it's almost impossible to capture 4G signal, most of the time the network symbol is switched to H+.

Last month I spent 2 weeks abroad for a family visit. While staying there I bought a temporary local 4G Sim and put it in the Slot 1, moving the main Sim to the Slot 2. When I came back from vacation, I didn't remove the junk 4G card but I disabled it from the Settings page. I noticed that the reception quality is suddenly improved, I even can use 4G connection in places where it's impossible to use before.

I did a test by placing the main Sim card back to the Slot 1, the reception quality is dropped significantly, just like before.

I'm no engineer so this whole experience makes me a bit perplexed. Not sure if it's just my phone or it's common thing on all smartphones.

ok then so its an app issue. contact the dev.

Dallas, try out an app, called KinScreen. I use it to keep my screen on when using speaker phone.

Thanks so much for the helpful info

You're welcome.

I know some people who don't get this issue on their Androids, so it's a little odd.

It has to be some issue of commonality, like using the same Android version, or using the same manufacturer's devices, or...who knows? You and I must have something(s) in common that those other people don't. Lucky us!

I wish I could do this, but my J7 Refine battery does not remove...this update is killing me and my phone. Frustrating!!

Click to expand...

Going by when the OP was posted, apparently this 7.11 update for Galaxy J7 was pushed out by Samsung two years ago. Have you only just updated your J7 or something?

TRS-80 said:

No, and therein lie the problem. This is why I still hang on to my s5. It was the last Samsung s5 with a user replaceable battery...

Samsung does have a few current cell phones with replaceable batteries, but those models are not as good as the S5.

I just deleted two "conversations", one being Amazon notifications, and the phone is better.

Looked at other Androids with replaceable batteries and the LG V20 64GB looks tempting.

Get text to go through sometimes I can't

Makes sense. Thanks so much for your help!

All I can add is that the second icon on the first image has a "dropped pin" in the same place that Google Maps' icon has it, so that's my guess for that one.

(You might ask how I can be unsure, but I've turned off most of the notifications that Maps sends, so rarely if ever see its notification icon. Plus the photo is a bit fuzzy ).

Thanks Svim. Good info

Thanks for noticing, that was mispresented emojis.

-- 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?

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?

Click to expand...

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).

hmmmm might have to check out the one hand mode. and i have not looked into using the edge screen function just yet.

one handed feature is pretty cool. i think there was something on the note 8 similar to this, but i never used. this being a tad bigger makes more sense.....check it out:

Redeye said:

If one likes using their VR, wants a Note10+, and is willing to give up trade-in promotions, why not keep their Note8? I don't think the VR needs a cellular connection to keep s/w updated. Just a thought, though it would be nice to see what the awesome new screen looks like in VR! -Redeye

Great idea. I was considering this myself.

Thanks for all the reply's everyone. I suppose my original question doesn't matter as much for the the N10+ as it doesn't make sense to pay for the 512 when you can just use an SD card to enhance the 256 model.

Well it's in FRP, so you won't be able to access it unless you have the proper credentials. Take the device to your local police station or throw it out.

Update. There seems to be another issue to where I can't cast anything to my smart TV. This used to work great. The smart TV is connected to my hotspot although it has no internet from the hotspot it is still connected to it. I have a feeling that this is some how connected to the no internet over hotspot issue. Any help would be great.
