Help USSD Codes not working abroad on KT (KT Telecom) Carrier S22 phone

YES i contacted them and they said that the problem is with the device
Same for me, the providers always say the problem is with the device.

A bit of research tells me that it could be because the phone you bought is registered with a certain provider and it doesn't support the frequency bands of the provider of the USIM you want to use.

In my case, the phone can call, send/receive messages, but USSDs don't work at all.

I have no idea until now how to solve this problem. Maybe next time, I should buy an unlocked phone (that is, I shouldn't buy a phone through a service provider)

Reusing part of a layout

Sorry in advance if this is something that has been answer before. I am a C# dev that never deals with UI, trying to learn android for fun and has no idea how to word his question...

I have made a layout I am happy with, like the following;

Code:
 <LinearLayout
        android:layout_column="1"
        android:layout_row="0"
        android:layout_width="300dp"
        android:layout_height="40dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="40dp"
        android:orientation="horizontal">

            <TextView
                android:text="Run For:"
                android:textSize="30dp"
                android:layout_width="0sp"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_weight=".5"
                android:textAlignment="center"/>

            <Button
                android:id="@+id/btn_down"
                android:layout_width="0sp"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_weight=".15"
                android:textAlignment="center"
                android:text="-" />

            <TextView
                android:id="@+id/run_time"
                android:textSize="30dp"
                android:layout_width="0sp"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_weight=".2"
                android:textAlignment="center"
                android:inputType="number"
                android:text="0" />

            <Button
                android:id="@+id/btn_up"
                android:layout_width="0sp"
                android:layout_height="match_parent"
                android:layout_weight=".15"
                android:textAlignment="center"
                android:text="+" />
    </LinearLayout>

and some handeling code;
Code:
 AppCompatTextView runTime = FindViewById<AppCompatTextView>(Resource.Id.run_time);
            AppCompatButton up = FindViewById<AppCompatButton>(Resource.Id.btn_up);
            AppCompatButton down = FindViewById<AppCompatButton>(Resource.Id.btn_down);

            up.Click += delegate
            {
                Int16 time;

                if(Int16.TryParse(runTime.Text, out time))
                {
                    if (time < 10)
                    {
                        time++;
                        runTime.Text = time.ToString();
                    }
                }
            };

            down.Click += delegate
            {
                Int16 time;

                if (Int16.TryParse(runTime.Text, out time))
                {
                    if (time > 0)
                    {
                        time--;
                        runTime.Text = time.ToString();
                    }
                }
            };

Great, all works.

How do I now repeat that 64 more times? I have a GridLayout already, I just have no idea how to repeat the buttons layout and click events. I guess I could copy and paste it 63 more times, but I feel like that might not be the best way here…

Has anyone got a example or something for me to read about how to do this?
I am writing this in C# but an example in java would be fine.

Thanks

S10 plus app looping

Hello. I have a digital crypto currency wallet. It's not through play store but it's a link sent to everyone via email then we click the link then download the wallet. The problem is when I touch the icon on my phone the app just keeps looping, what I mean by that the little circle keeps going around with updating underneath it and that's all it does. It should immediately display the wallet with my personal details. Samsung informed me there is nothing wrong with the phone. The company said it's unique to me and they can't replicate the problem. I'm not sure anyone on this forum can help but I though I'd give it a go

Help Phone factory reset itself after entering Safe Mode

My phone is Samsung Galaxy Note10 Lite, running Android 12 One UI 4.1.

I put the phone in my suitcase for a while then took it out. Suprisingly, the wallpaper changed to default and there was a Safe Mode text at lower left corner of the screen (may be something hit the volume & power button).

After I had unlocked the phone using password, it behaved like a factory reset was done (language choosing, privacy options, etc).

What confusing me is that all 3rd party apps such as Telegram, Reddit and games have disappeared not only on the screen but also in Settings>Apps (I noticed 15gb of data loss when checking the device storage). Media files, documents on the other hand, are still intact and located exactly where they supposed to be.

Whenever I try different ways to exit Safe Mode (restart system, press the Exit Safe Mode notification), the phone keep booting back to Safe Mode and a message is shown:

"Phone started in Safe mode. There's a problem that's preventing your phone from starting normally. You'll need to factory reset your phone to exit Safe mode. you can use Safe mode to back up your data to a computer or SD card before resetting your phone."

What problem am I facing with? Is the Safe Mode meant to erase all 3rd party apps? And are there any chance that I can get those apps back? Please help me figure this out. I have Google Authenticator app installed before, if I lose it, I will be really screwed up.

Help with Flip 3 and hearing aids

I started wearing hearing aids in April of 2022. The Bluetooth feature made them perfect for me. However, in August something changed in the phone that caused the hearing aid battery life (rechargeable) to go from 18 hours to 12 with the left aid. The hearing aid company replaced the battery with no change. Then they replaced the hearing aids with no change. Does anyone know what changed and how to reverse it? I think I need to change how Bluetooth functions and what it transfers to the hearing aids. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. Al

Accessing app data files?

I run a program called Boinc on Windows and Android. It stores files on Windows in c:\programdata\boinc. I assume in Android it will be in Android\data, but on the phone that appears empty, even with show hidden files. When I connect to a Windows PC with a USB cable, I can see folders underneath that for every app on the phone, but they're all empty, which I know is a lie. How do I see these files? I need to change the config file in this app.

Is this a sign of a dying cellphone or memory card?

hi everyone

i have a LG Stylo2 as a spare phone that i use just for surveillance recording purposes. i know some are questioning why i would use it for that. it works for me and has so for the past year. anyway i noticed recently that recordings have beenn stopping by themselves. i know cause the recording stops after about a day worth. i should note that i dont have any antivirus software on it. i can put bitdfender on it tho cause i have a free device slot left from my plan. its just i didnt think it would be needed since i dont have a phone service thats active cause its a spare like i said and i have a different phone that i use as my main. based on this info can anyone tell me if memory card needs replacing or my cellphone is dying? the phone seems to work fine besides that tho. could it be that someone has hacked into my phone since theres no antivirus app on it currently? heres the name of the memory card i have been using:

SanDisk 128GB MicroSD HC Ultra Uhs-1 Memory Card

hope to hear from someone who can help me figure this out. thanks in advance.

Compatibility mode?

I wanted to see if there was an Android equivalent to the Windows compatibility mode for older apps. There is:

https://developer.android.com/guide/app-compatibility/test-debug

But when I try to use it, it says "App compatibility changes can only be modified for debuggable apps."

Is there a way to make this run for a normal app? I have some apps that stopped working with recent Android versions.

Help I can't answer my frigging phone!

Details: I use the default phone app on my Motorola One 5g Ace. Lately, I can't figure out how to answer an incoming call when I'm using another app. I used to be able to find the app and answer it, although never easily.

As info, I can't move ANY of the settings/phone/notification switches to active after opening the phone app under recently sent notifications, excepting for the Advanced/Allow Notification dot. AND one category is deleted, but I'm not told which one.

Also, I'm unable to delete the app so that I can download a refreshed version.

"Set a timer for x minutes" - "go and do it yourself"

I ask Google to set a timer. It works most of the time.

But... too many times I'll get a reply saying "you can do that yourself" - or something like that.

What the f***???
Why the heck am I bothering activating the Google assistant and speaking and asking for the timer to be set???
I think a few people in Google need firing!!!

I think when the phone is on the clock/alarm setting you get this.
Why why why would someone think its OK to tell the user to do it themselves!!?
How dumb.

Or am I the dumb one who has missed some profound wisdom of life?

Problem with REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES, in Android

For about two weeks we have had the problem that Google / Android are rejecting apps for updates with the following statement:

We found that your app is not compliant with how REQUEST_INSTALL_PACKAGES permission is allowed to be used. Specifically, the use of the permission is not directly related to the core purpose of the app.

Indeed, some of our apps had included this right in the past, but recent updates (for more than 6 months) no longer. We have checked and confirmed the current status as follows:

  • Manifest controlled
  • Searched all APK and plugins
  • APK details in the store does not show this right either
  • Display of the affected APK using "Sensitive Rights": all old beta versions which are not active
Unfortunately, all our objections and general support requests (also via other Google areas) are consistently ignored.

It is impossible for us to update our apps. Which is extra critical, especially with regard to requirements regarding newer SDK and billing API in two weeks.

How can we obtain help with the issue?

We're not a very small publisher, it's about apps with several hundred thousand installations.

Thanks
