Quick Persistent Icon \ Auto Fill Question...

Hi everyone, long time but love that you all are still going strong and focused! (Sorry if that was corny, long week and overtired:)

Two quick questions about two issues... I have a Motorola G Power w\ Android 11 on it, and after recently resetting the phone, noticed that along with the voicemail updates there is now a stopwatch \ clock icon at the top of the screen and on the lock screen. It's not associated w\ any other app, and will go away when I clear the storage and cache, but comes back as soon as I get a text, along with a 'welcome to voicemail' popup... The latter I'm able to get rid of with a quick swipe, but don't seemingly have an option within the voicemail app itself or any other setting to stop the clock icon.

And this is less of a thing but still a thing; some old email addresses I had on the phone before the reset keep popping up with the autofill... I went to the Google app itself as well as the keyboard settings, and couldn't find where I could remove the emails \ words in general from the autofill \ auto complete.

Thank you in advance for the time and please ask anything that might help!

"Confirm: A read report will be sent" on MMSs from one contact

This just started happening. My phone since October is a ZTE Cymbal flip phone that runs a very stripped down stock Android on it (no package installer, no APK support, no app store, no internet even, which makes it far more secure than GrapheneOS and also makes it update proof) and whenever my girlfriend sends me pictures as MMS it lags for a minute, then pops up saying 'Confirm: A read report will be sent' OK/CANCEL. If I cancel, the picture never shows. If I confirm it displays normally but the lag it shows whenever I get the pop-up which I have never seen before is the cause of my frustration since if I'm typing to her when she sends a photo, it stops me from sending any input for that minute while it produces the pop-up.

I verified on my phone that read reports are unchecked, and I had a discussion with her about what to disable on her phone (hers is a TCL, and she uses Verizon Message+, I recommended her to check the settings on that app and even use the other, stock messages app, and she has the setting also unchecked but it still does this on mine)

Only when receiving pictures. Is this RCS causing this? Am I expected to live with this now? I wish carriers would stop forcing their will on customers. It already upsets me that they won't let me use my Thunderbolt since September, but now they're messing up flip phones now!

Install programs to try out and if you don't like them, simply delete them without leaving residues?

Would it be possible to install programs on Android to try them out and simply delete them if you don't like them, without leaving residues / "garbage" (as it is with Windows, for example) or without encountering problems / disadvantages? So can programs (in contrast to Windows) be uninstalled without any problems or residues or are there any leftovers / disadvantages?

Release an app with binaries

Hi All,
I have been working on a project which has legacy code ( more than 2 decades old), so I am trying to deploy my project as an android app with target API level 29+. But I could see privacy changes introduced after Android 10, which doesn't allow binaries to be executed from app home directory. My project has an executable which used to work fine till API 28. Then reading the release notes, I came to know that only files with lib[filename].so format are extracted into app home directory, which effectively leaves out my binary from being extracted into the same. So, after going through some forums, I came to know that if we can rename binary in the form of binaryfile to lib[binaryfile].so , it's working smoothly as before.

So my question is:
Can I publish an app with such disguised binary ". so" as release build apk to playstore?? Let me clarify that, my app does simple network tests like ping, traceroute etc.

This is critical, any pointers would be helpful as I am new to android app development, and to app publishing.

Thanks,
Harsha

Help Trouble Accessing Old Tablet

More than likely it's a paperweight at this point, but I figured it wouldn't hurt to ask. I have an Acer A200 tablet that I received as a gift maybe like 10 years ago give or take. Well, I figure I stopped using it maybe around 2014? It has not been touched since. My mom recently found it and brought it to my house, so my first reaction was to try and log into it. Here is where the problems begin...I had one of those line draw passwords. I locked it up real fast trying to figure it out. So, then it gave me the option to log in via google account, which again I can't do. I've tried every password I can think of...my new one, passwords I consistently used back then, nothing works. And I can't connect it to Wi-Fi of course, so either it's blocking me from using it entirely or I simply cannot guess the right password from back then. Begrudgingly, I went to factory reset it. But it won't even allow me to do that. I get the right screen but as its loading it after starting up the android ups and dies (it shows an android laying down with a red caution triangle). I don't know what else to do. Ideally, I'd like to save the stuff on there because I know it'd be like a time capsule, but I'm also aware that that more than likely isn't going to happen. What are my options here? Can I reset it with my computer? I'm at a loss.

In Android Studio, after dragging elements from the palette to the layout, they fly somewhere

In Android Studio, after dragging elements from the palette to the layout, they fly somewhere to the left and are not drawn to the screen. And this is only in one single project. At the same time, at first everything was fine, and then all the elements "flew" from the screen. You can of course delete this project, there is a simple case study. But imagine if after a month of development this will come out to you. I would like to understand the reason and how to deal with it, why this happened.

Accessories Digital stylus search

I am looking for a digital stylus for my Google Pixel 6 Pro phone. Finding one that works on the phone is easy. It has to have a fine point that needs charging and a broad end that doesn't. In order for the fine tip to work, you have to turn it on. Now for the kicker, so far everyone I've found, turns itse
lf off every 30 minutes whether I'm using it or not. I'm looking for one that won't turn itself off while I'm using it! Everyone I've tried turns itself off while I'm using it. It makes no sense. They say it's to save the battery, but I'm using it, do not shut it off!
Thanks in advance,

I tried so hard but in the end it didnt even matter

Help Promblem with connecting to IKEV2 vpn server from android devices

TeaTV on linux

HI

About a year ago I tried loading teatv on anbox (a linux based android emulator) and it failed totally I was told that anbox uses arm64 architecture and my computer was likely running 86-64 or amd64. From the write up on their site it looks like WayDroid supports at least 86-64 and possibly amd64.

Does anyone have any experience running teatv or even plutotv on WayDroid? Has anyone gotten it to work?

I'm currently running them in my windows box using blustacks, but I'd really like to use the linux box.

Thanks

Resisting developer mode

I have followed the instructions to get the crimebook to go there. At first I thought it would, but it doesn't. It just goes back to the first part. I don't know what the password is, and I don't need one because it's my own private computer (whoopee). Is there some way to do an end run around all that and just get Linux on the thing once and for all?

[FREE GAME] Build a Snowman - hardcore logical game

Hi, I just finished my hardcore logical game called Build a Snowman.
You can download it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.raiper34.buildasnowman

Build a Snowman is a hardcore logical game, where the main task is to merge 2 parts of the snowman's body.

It sounds like a very easy task, but it is not! You control both parts at the same time, and you need to use blocks to stop one snowman part and avoid fire. Fire is deadly for snowmen! There are also locked doors with keys and even portals in advanced levels. Still, sounds like an easy task? I understand, that yes, but do not wait and test your brain during Christmas evenings!

The game contains winter, green and Mexican worlds with 30 hardcore levels. Let's build a snowman and not get anger issues!

WiFi Calling Not Working Suddenly

I have had WiFI calling turned on for several years (on my Samsung Galaxy S10e) using Verizon. Suddenly it stopped working. What happens is I try to make a call and nothing happens: no ringing, nothing. If I turn the WiFi calling off, then the calls work fine. My home WiFi is working at the same time. I tried clearing the cache of the phone app which didn't help. I have rebooted my phone after that.
Any ideas why this is happening?

The Call settings keeps crashing on A8 bypass

I have with me a Samsung Galxy A8 (2018), my boss purchased this phone from a girl, but she dont know the google account e-mail and password or the screenlock to unlock the phone. I am tryng to unlock the phone using a hole of methods, i try to use a blocked SIM Card, i tried to connect on the pc but the phone doesnt reconized. Probaly the best method to unlock this phone is via entering on the Call settings, but when i click on 2 seconds and customize buttons to enter in call settings, appears a black screen and go back to the keyboard settings, is there something i can do to resolve this issue?
