I can use (read/write) a flashdrive on my samsung tablet T590 (TAB A 2018 android 10), also on my smartphone samsung A21 with android 13, but NOT on my smartphone samsung A52 with android 13. Is this normal behaviour? Some setting to be changed?. I already tried changing the 'standard USB-configuration' without success.
Thanks for your answer.

I used the Android Studio profiler to check how the values of CPU, memory and energy change during the execution of an app I'm developing. I wonder if there is any way I could display these values, for instance, the energy consumed and CPU load on my APP?

This is some of the documentation I checked and it doesn't say anything about it.

If there is any other way to display performance values on the app without using the profiler, I could also use that!

Anyone have any luck with transferring files from one SD card to another? During syncing with USB, my device is no longer being recognized. I haven't had much luck trying to transfer wirelessly. I was debating on giving this method a shot.

Hey all,

About 6 months ago my Samsung A32 Android phone did an OS update. Ever since, any website that uses midi - such as https://www.musicca.com/piano - yields NO sound in Google Chrome. I've reset my phone, re-installed Chrome, cleared all the cache, enable site sounds, etc... I have noticed that SITE SETTINGS for individual websites in the desktop version of Chrome has an option to enable / disable midi devices. But the mobile version is completely missing this option. Not sure if that's the problem but just an observation. Does anyone know how to fix this in the mobile version Chrome?

Hello,

I have a project and I'm heading towards you to know which way I should go according to your experiences.

I want to make a gamepad type application communicating in bluetooth.
A type of joystick that I like is the classic one that we can see in mobile games, a point in a defined area and buttons depending on my needs.
When I will have a functional application, I would like to improve it so that my application is also compatible with gamepad devices.
I want to focus on Android only, I don't have a Mac or an iPhone so anyway...

My experience in Android development is limited to a simple application with React Native so I would like to have your opinion on what is the best way to achieve my goals?
Are Flutter or React Native viable solutions or should I focus on Android Studio directly?

Thanks for your opinions!

I was playing Apex mobile, but I am looking something different options.

I hope I'm posting in the right place but will an unlocked tmobile phone work with Verizon? I found the phone I'm thinking about getting for a good deal but it was a tmobile phone seller said it's unlocked. But looking online doesn't look like a unlocked tmobile phone will work with Verizon I want to make sure.

I am looking for multiplayer kind of game, whether its with someone, or vs someone, or teams/clans.
It can be for example village building.

That thing from the government, Sense or whatever, has been acting weird, mainly not charging right. Yesterday morning it did the black screen of near death experience, fastboot. I didn't really have time to mess with it then, or now. Is there a way to fix it fast, and not boot it out the window?

I've thought about rooting my phone in the past and had a member here say I should. But my concerns are safety related worried about the security of my personal information and or phone. Worried about the software needed to do the root then the custom roms downloaded to my laptop and phone. Or am I just worrying for nothing?

I was trying to find information as to whether recent, S21 and S 22 Ultra stylus will fit the S23 Ultra. This is purely a vanity project as I have ordered the red S23 Ultra and I was going to link it up with the red (bodied) stylus (I think from the S21 Ultra period)? Can anyone confrim if I woud be taking a retro step (technically) by installing the 'old' red stylus?

Hi,
My father in law has droven over his blackview (with his tractor) and the screen is not responding anymore, but the Phone is working (charging, if i plug a mouse I can feel vibration on some clicks, Ive even succeded to turn on the lamp).
He has important information on the Phone, and i couldnt find à way to get back the data.
Developer mode is not activated on his device, and if i plug the Phone on a computer, file transfer is not enabled by default. Besides, he doesnt have any google account.
Ive tried also to plug à hub with hdmi port to see Phone on a screen monitor but it failed.
Do you have some other idea, or if hdmi can work with a special Hub reference ?
Thanks a lot

Hello, I use Galaxy Tab S6 Lite for drawings. And when I want save my file my device sometimes cloning this files with no reason. Its look like [filename].kra and [filename].kra (1) It's a bug? Or this feature can be disabled? Please help!

(Its not drawing app fault, because on another devices app is not cloning any files. And sorry for my English)

I have an S20+ that was working fine. Yesterday I noticed when the phone is asleep, I have the always on display and fingerprint enabled, but the fingerprint will not unlock the phone when the screen is dark. I have to press the power button to wake up the phone first, and then the fingerprint works on fine the lock screen to unlock it. There are 4 registered fingerprints. None of them work on the sleep screen.

Fingerprint is enabled, fingerprint always on is enabled, and show icon when screen is off is set to 'on always on display'.

I tested the proximity sensor using the "Samsung Members" app and it works. Also reset the system cache and rebooted. I deleted one fingerprint and registered it again. This did not help. Any suggestions?
I have Android ver 13

Is it possible to install a different image picker/dialogue box?

This is the dialogue box that pops up whenever you need to choose an image (to attach to email, or upload to Facebook)

Would Samsung get rid of the A series in the future and no longer have a budget or mid-range lineup in the United States? How likely is that to happen?

I installed textra hoping it had this feature. Does ANY messaging app allow you to select & copy selected words (e.g an address or phone number) from within a received message? Haven't found any that allow this. Thanks

So someone hacked a relative of mine on Facebook, and the fake person had a conversation with me, pretending to be my uncle.
Later when I logged back into Facebook, everything they said in the message chat window in Facebook had disappeared. I could only see my responses.

I then got on my Android phone and used Signal to SMS chat. I chatted there with my real relative, and we discussed what happened. I texted them there that my messages had disappeared in Facebook, and that I thought that was creepy. We ended the conversation.

The next time I used my phone, and the screen turned on, Signal was opened to a window saying "Disappearing messages". It was just already sitting at at that screen!
"When enabled, new messages sent and received in this chat will disappear after they have been seen."
The settings are "Off", "4 weeks", "1 week".... up to "30 seconds".
I was never even aware of this setting. Why would the phone be open to this all by itself?
Has anybody seen this happen before.

The only explanation I can think of is Android/Signal SMS automatically suggested this feature, after I texted someone the words "disappearing messages".
Either that or I have a super psycho hacker taking control of my phone.
Anyone have any thoughts/experiences with this?

I tried with stock firmware, lineageOS20, some random ROM, but my phone can't download nothing from web, also I can't make photos, or save DATA, I did factory reset, wipe dalvik cache, fix context, but nothing, my phone is useless now!

Hello tap master, a new challenge has just arrived for you. There are many avatars waiting to be unlocked. Will you be the one to make it?

• Avatars can be unlocked by leveling up. The level system is based on the experience (XP) you collect by completing quests.
• There are many types of quests and you are free to cancel any if you want, it depends on your strategy.
• There are also three boosts you can use at any time so you can complete quests faster.

Level up and earn rewards like a new avatar, an extra quest slot and free boost activation.

Are you ready tap master? Don't waste time, press play and start tapping bubbles right away.
Tick tock, the countdown has begun. Tick tock, time is running out. Will you be able to complete the quest?

You can play both offline and online, but if you choose online you'll be able to cancel quests and double your score to speed up your overall progress.

It may not be easy for some, but we believe you have what it takes to make it happen. Your tapping speed will play an important role and so will your strategy. Are you ready to test your skills?

Mini trailer:

I obviously don't listen with headphones very often. I bought my Galaxy S22 about the first of November, but today I wanted to listen with my usual headphones, but I couldn't find a headphone jack anywhere on the phone. After doing a bit of online looking, I discovered that I have to buy some wireless bluetooth headphones! That makes my current headphones useless! I've now ordered some wireless ones from the big store online but will they work or not? Is there any way to make a regular headphone work on this phone?

Thanks for advice.

I am in a sales position. We get leads via incoming calls (shark tank). My S21 isn't ringing as fast as other team members. Even if my finger on the button someone else answers. I've shut down background apps. Restart phone constantly to get nearest cell tower. No luck any suggestions?

Hi. I am wondering if some kind of rooting (perhaps de-googled as well) will strip off all the emergency alert software so that I never get one again ?
Thanks
