Help Unsure what this issue is called

N
Yeah its pretty random but still annoying. I was noticing its when I'm accidentally scrolling on something or don't realize it when I go to tap a link or something. Even in Camera mode, if my thumb rubs the edge it thinks I'm trying to zoom.. then the button to snapshot refuses to work.

I just got the note 10 so no case, but I will try that and see if it helps. Thanks for the replies!

Layout File Storage

Shelby Swayze
I started a new app for a classroom tutorial video from Udemy.com on Android Studio. Now when I bring the app back and I have put a button, three editText boxes and three TextView boxes onto the layout, I can't bring the layout back and I can't find the layout file anywhere on my computer (at least so far). My question is: Does the layout file automatically save itself with Android Studio? With B4A android language's IDE, the layout file must be named and saved. I saw no prompt that I had to save or name the layout for my app ("Registration Form". Here's the app's Activity_main.xml code.
Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<resources xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent">
    <item name="workouttype" type="id" />
    <item name="txthello" type="id"/>
</resources>

Music player apps not reading SD card

GameTheory
Geoff White said:
Hi, I have a Nokia 3.1 running Android 9. I have a problem which seemed to start after a recent update...
I have a 128gb SD card with about 45gb of music on it.
Most music player apps don't seem able to read the card properly (the only ones that can read it have really bad user interfaces and limited functions)
Some music player apps can read a few tracks (91 seems to be a common number, I don't know why), others cannot read any.
I know that the card is readble, because the file explorer app can read it and display all the files.
Can anyone help me with this please?
Thanks!

Just out of curiosity, what file format are your music files? (ie. wav or mp3 etc)

Are the 91 files a different file format from the rest?

I ask these questions because it can be a file format that the music players are having trouble with. If you don't mind, please try VLC media player which can play all file types, even the most obscure. It's both a video and audio player...

No nightmode on my s9 plus

&gt; 'Do you like the s9 plus'

Yes, it's a great phone. Snappy, with some good features added by Samsung.

My only complaint is that my battery life seems to be dropping lately, without any obvious culprit. I'm afraid my heavy use for the past 15 months may be degrading it. I guess I'll have to get used to carrying around a power pack.

I find if you have display on drains battery too so I turned that off

Can I have a group of tabs when I open Chrome?

GameTheory
HarryC said:
Like you can on PC, I'd like to have a few of my favorite sites accessible on tabs when I open chrome.
Click to expand...
Yes it's possible. Just open chrome and click on the number that is in a square at the top right and then click the + sign at the top left for a new tab.

If you'd like all the tabs to open every time you open chrome then when you close chrome, do it with the home button. This way when you open it again it will open all your tabs.
