How to fix picture is upside down on screen

Hi all,

I need to setup remote desktop on Android mobile as follow;

1) Samsung Galaxy S9+ phone(phone-1) as camera, mounted at the end of an extension rod.
Software running - Teamviewer Quickconnect App

2) Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra phone(phone-2) as "remote controller", mounted at the handle of the extension rod
Software running - Teamviewer Remote Control

It works. phone-1 can be remotely controlled on phone-2 to capture video seamlessly.

The only problem is;
phone-2 can't be mounted horizontally. It can only be mounted vertically.

If phone-2 is mounted horizontally, the video on its screen is inverted. The picture is upside down.

Please advise how to fixed the problem. Thanks in advance.

Can't flash custom rom

Hi, I'm new here so bear with me.
I have a Samsung galaxy note pro 12.2 lte and I'm trying to flash a custom rom (lineage os android 11) to it. I have installed twrp for the device and downloaded the rom. The problem I have is that when I try to flash the rom using twrp it fails on error 255. It gets to the point where it doesn't seem to recognise the device. It's says the software is for a note pro 12.2 sm-905 viennalte but the device shows as a full stop.what is a "viennalte" as opposed to just an lte?
Any ideas please

Need help with Watchmaker App on Samsung S22 Ultra

Using Watchmaker on my Samsung S22 Ultra and have the companion app installed on my Samsumg watch 5 pro. I opted for the premium version if that makes any difference. I can send a watch face to the watch and it shows up under My Watches in the watch app but I can never get it to show up on the actual watch.
I've tried selecting Watch 4 and Watch 4 classic which I think should work but still no luck.
Any suggestions on what I can try?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Help Battery draining really fast

Hello, my phone model is Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 Pro and it's 2 months old. For the last few days my battery has been draining really fast. In less than 24 hours it went from 100 % to 60 %, without me using the phone much. The day before the same happened. In 12 hours it went from 60 % to 40 %. What I also noticed was a lot of mobile data usage for the current month, more than double of my normal usage for a month.

Help Unable to download MMS on wifi without roaming while traveling internationally (S9, T-Mobile)

Hi all,

I have a stock S9 on T-Mobile and use Google Messages and/or Samsung Messages (the built-in app.)

I travel internationally and recently started receiving "gentle" reminders from T-Mobile that "roaming benefits are not intended for extended use abroad." You know, "Sprint + T-Mobile, better together", blah blah blah.

I am usually on wifi so I disabled roaming expecting hardly any consequences. And had no issues except I discovered that I am unable to download MMS messages (photos or texts in groups) UNLESS I enable roaming again.

This is happening with both Google Messages and Samsung Messages apps.

Is there some setting or configuration that I am missing or is it that wifi is not enough and mobile data/roaming is required?

My concern, of course, is that T-Mobile will press the issue if this scenario continues.

Thanks in advance

Problems with publishing app on app store

Hi,

I've created an app for real work which automatically turns on Bluetooth on startup. I installed it to 3 devices via USB and it works perfectly normal. When I tried to upload it to Amazon app store, it was denied explaining that app exits to main screen on the launch. They sent me even a video of that. I don't know what to do anymore. I'd like to get some advices. Thanks.

Does anyone else have these issues with the samsung s10?

Hi guys,

So i am experiencing basically 2 problems with my s10. I will start with the bigger one.

When i am recording voice messages (regardless of the app - (this happened on whatsapp and telegram so far, i am expecting to happen on signal also) at some point of the recording the sound drops severily to almost zero. And this can be for a couple of seconds to a couple of minutes straight. I do not know what this is caused by and i totally don't know how to fix it.
Did this ever happen to any of you guys that are using s10 devices?

The second problem i noticed with my s10 is whenever i am using the phone in somewhat extreme temperatures (when it's a bit too cold or too hot outside) it starts acting up weirdly in that it starts doing commands by its own like someone is touching the touchscreen chaotically.
Does this sound familiar to any other s10 users?

Does anyone know how to fix this? Especially the recording of the voice messages problem.

Thank you very much

New interface to Android Messages app

Yesterday, I was using the standard Android Messages app to send some texts, and all of a sudden, a little window opened up and was asking me if I wanted to link my Messages app to Google in some new way that would allow for sending higher quality videos. From what I remember, I was given two choices:

--Choose my Google email account
--or use the messages app without a gmail account.

I didn't want to have it connected to gmail in some new way, so I chose to not have it connected to gmail. I anticipated that this would just send me back to the Messages app and everything would be the same as it was before. But now the app interface has changed. Instead of the three dots in the upper right corner of the screen, there is a circle with a little person icon in it (See attached pic). And the settings are now accessed by three lines in the upper left corner of the screen. What happened? Is there a way to go back to the previous interface? I wish I had just hit the back button instead of choosing anything.

Help Is there a scanning app that can resize the pictures to a certain paper size?

I'm looking for an app to scan documents and convert them to PDF, I know, there's many apps that can do that but all the ones I have tried can't resize the picture taken to a given paper size (like letter or A4) without leaving white bars on the sides.

I have attached two pdf files on this thread, one document was scanned using an app called Genius Scan

As you can see on the first page there's white bars on the sides and on the second page there's white bars at the top and the bottom of the page.

The same document was scanned using Scanner Pro on iOS , and this is the desired result

There's no white bars and the content is resized to fill all the space on the page, which is letter size on both cases.

Is there any app that can do this on Android? I couldn't find any

Help , please...desperate

I am desperate. I had to turn on the biometrics (used a fingerprint) for my phone. Then I decided to turn it OFF. I tried going into settings but it kept asking for a password. I've tried everything I could think of but nothing worked so I did a new one, wrote it down, and the new one was accepted. But that wouldn't work to get rid of the biometrics either, so I thought maybe I should restart my phone. Now I can't even get INTO my phone. What can I do other than smash it against a wall?

This is on a Samsung Galaxy S9.

Android Slow Bluetooth RFCOMM Transfer Rate with RN4678

We are experimenting with a bunch of new tablets, and every one we tried is having issues with slow transfer rates with the RN4678 board. We currently use the Lenovo M10 FHD Plus. We tried a few such as the Teclast M40S, Nokia T20, and Samsung Galaxy Tab A8. The first two had horrible transfer rates, while the latter was okay but not ideal. We cannot use the Lenovo M10 Plus 3rd Gen because the buttons are too close to the corner to use with our tablet holders.

my issues is when i look at the photos all i see is a blank icon and it has the photo name and then under the name is has jpg file so how do i get this phone to show these as photos? any other phone i connect will show the photo

upload_2022-10-27_11-0-13.png


look at this and see the photos. this is from another phone doing the same process and they show as photos.
so do i have to change some settings in the nokia to get this phone to send out photos as with the jpg included in the file name so the pc knows they are photos? i do not want to jump thru hoops every time want to save photos from the nokia to my pc. thanks

Thanks a lot for all replies.
