Airplane mode reminder

My issue is that I will turn on airplane mode to play a game uninterrupted and then if something happens I'll forget to turn off airplane mode until I try to use the internet.. possibly a day or more later. Does anyone know of an app that will remind me every configurable minutes while in airplane mode that I am in airplane mode? Or something that will let me put the phone in airplane mode for a configurable amount of time and then automatically turn off would work also.

Weird activity with Samsung keyboard phone

Okay so I have several old Android phones in a drawer full of old electronics cell phone junk.
One of them is a Samsung Captivate Glide. I haven't used it in years. Since like 2015.
However, last night I was looking to use an old phone just for its camera. I plugged in the Capitivate Glide and charged it about 4 hours.
Then I realized what I had forgotten- years ago, this phone's display screen had shorted out. The phone is still operational, but you can't use the screen or see anything, its just blacked out.
So the phone is essentially useless. Bummer.
Okay here's where it gets weird.
I put the phone away, in its old box and put it back in the drawer yesterday.
About 1:00 am tonight, I heard what sounded like carillon bells. Familiar, carillon bells. But coming from where?
I hunted around, and discovered that the SAMSUNG PHONE WAS PLAYING, inside the box, inside the drawer. At top volume. A YouTube video, of carillon bells.
Now, several days before, I had downloaded a recording of carillon bells to my desktop PC off YouTube. But this video was on my PC.
Why would that recording, be playing on the old Samsung phone, all by itself? Inside the box, in the closed drawer?
Again, I can't access the screen or anything, and haven't loaded anything on it for years.
I'm completely baffled by this.
I plugged the phone in to the Desktop via USB, for the first time ever----- AFTER it was playing the bells.
I can still access the files on the phone.
But I didn't find any video or music files on it that had been loaded since 2015.
Has anyone heard of anything like this before? Its extremely creepy.

Have the following issues with Samsung galaxy A51.

Hello,

I have the following issues with Samsung galaxy A51 phone, the phone is running android 13 and the software is up to date, have reset the phone but this did not fix the issues.
Find that sometimes when using the phone in a app the phone freezes with out any warning to fix the issue I press the power button on the side of the phone to bring the the screen saver on sign back in and the issue is gone.
Have had the SIM card replaced but sometimes find that when I select a phone number to ring there is no dial tone to start with then it comes on.
When I sign into my phone any app will be open without any warning is there way to stop this from happening, so when I log in there is no app open.
In Google play store check for updates and it says no updates but check again and the play store shows updates for apps, is there way to fix this?.
Sometimes when I tap the pin I use to sign into my phone find that the phone does not respond to the touch on the screen so some of the pin does not get entered.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks

Help Unlocked ATT Samsung S20 Won't Update in Canada

Hi, I bought an unlocked ATT Samsung S20 last summer. I'm in Canada and the phone has been working with no problem. I have not received the One UI 5 update nor the Android 13 update. I checked with Samsung Canada and they referred me to Samsung US, they said that I should be patient and wait. After checking online I'm getting the feeling that the phone has to be on the ATT network. Does this make any sense? Does anyone know if this is the case?

Frustration after system update

Can anyone comment usefully on something that I discovered yesterday (26 Feb 2023). My phone is an Android — a Motorola moto g22. On 25/2/2023, I allowed a system update (update number: STAS32.79-77-28-18-2) and everything seemed fine. However, the day after the update, I clicked on DuckDuck Go, which I had downloaded and installed myself, months ago, and had trouble-free use of.

Since the update, when I click on the icon for DuckDuck Go (a search engine), instead of it opening, what opens is something called OneDrive (I believe this is a Google storage site). Oddly, when, months ago, I had dragged an icon for "Drive" (that name exactly) on my desktop, it showed as an an icon that was different from the triangular icon for Drive that shows in my Apps folder. It had its own icon (different, as stated), plus a small inset of the icon for DuckDuck Go, attached to it and seemingly a part of the OneDrive icon! Furthermore, its name was not "Drive" any more, but "OneDrive". (The original app, in my Apps folder, still shows as a triangle, with the name Drive (only).

I am sure that Google/Android does not take kindly to users having DuckDuck Go installed, because they want to track what you do on-line, whereas DuckDuck does not allow tracking. Previous system updates have not prevented DuckDuck Go from opening.

Can anyone tell me how to get DuckDuck Go to open as it used to do before this update?
With thanks in advance,
S.

How important are Android and App Security Updates?

I'd be very warry of a computer (including tablets/smartphones) that's connected to the Internet, yet no longer receiving security updates! Yet multiple people on forums have told me that Android systems without OS security updates can be used safely, so long as you otherwise have good security practices. So I'm starting this thread, a thread where we can discuss the question: How important are security updates for Android OS, and the apps that run on it?

Show me what I listen

Hi all,
I am using the wiim android app that connects to my wiim streamer. The streamer connects to amazon music and feeds my integrated amp.
So far all good.
What is also nice with my wiim app is that the currently playing song is synchronized with all android apps that run the application. This is a feature that I can use to some extent to display in a dedicated tablet what I am playing

These are the features that I am lacking though
1. Turn on the display on when I start streaming music
2. Keep display always on and turn it off when I stop streaming.

I am willing to use a different android app and or buy a different streamer that uses a different app.
I am open to suggestions and alternatives.
Regards,
Alex
