Wear OS 3.0

Get ready for the biggest update in Wear OS... ever!

Wear OS 2.5 was a massive upgrade from the old Android Wear platform, but still limited in capability. Google knew that, unless they did something dramatic, the platform would wither away. They partnered with Samsung to bring the best of Tizen, and the best of Wear OS, to a new unified platform: Wear OS 3.0.

Here is a quick rundown of all the new features expected:

Questions on Android Sqlite

Hello,

As a background, I've gone through free tutorials many years back but they taught me very basic / elementary items on how to use and navigate through the Android development tool. To worsen the situation, no one in stackoverflow can answer as that seems for high level professionals, not a beginner like me. The android development team won't help as they are handling the android tool itself. They stated they do not handle java. So I've no choice but to come here, hoping someone knows something.

I recently found useful and up-to-date tutorials about how to create Sqlite on Android but still, the tutorial teaches the whats, not the hows. That means if can only follow that specific example but can't write my own. The link clearly shows that a DBAdapter is not required. This surprises me as the android documentation clearly mentions the adapter, saying it is required. So does anyone know about this? Could you advice on every step as I'm not an expert?

Whatsapp backing up every day

Device: Galaxy S7. I've used Whatsapp for years and always had (and still have) Back up to Google drive set to only when I click 'back up'. Just over a week ago, I enabled end-to-end encrypted backup, it seemed fine. But since then, every morning my phone shows for some time (10-20 mins) Backup in progress as notification. Also below the 'back up' button it reads Your backup is being end-to-end encrypted for the first time. This process can take a while. Which seems strange as I thought this had completed over a week ago.

Help Can this Mirroring lag be fixed? - Solved

I am facing an issue with lag on one of my old devices and would like to know if it can be fixed.

The issue is on the Sony Xperia Z5 Compact running Android Nougat. This issue does not exist on the older phone that is Sony Xperia Z1 Compact Running Lollipop.

Both devices are rooted.

The exact issue on this device is as follows:

When I try to watch a streaming video from youtube it would LAG and makes the video unwatchable.

But it works normally when I stream a video from the phone.

It seems to be an issue with the buffer.

I got the same issue when I tested on the two Miracast devices that I have.

When using and connecting from the Xperia mirroring feature in settings I get an HDCP message that the device can only mirror from Xperia programs that include settings Home and Music and video apps. When I try to open another app it would disconnect.

So I changed some setting that I found online for two system files to bypass this problem. I still get that message but now I can mirror anything that I want, that is the reason that I rooted the device.

I also tried it from custom ROM (Oreo) and faced the same issue with the LAG but no HDCP message there.

There is a cast feature in settings as well that will mirror the device without any lag. But that works through the LAN network and not a direct connection and only one of my Miracast devices has that feature.

There are two ways to connect to Chromecast or a Miracast device. One is a direct connection and one is through the network. I want the Z5c to work the same like it does on the older Z1c. With no lag on the direct connection.

Issue with network

Hello everyone,

I have a Samsung M31S for the past 2 years. Great phone. But since last one month I am not able to make any calls or anything related to sim. At the place where the network icon should be I am getting a prohibition symbol (circle with diagonal line).

I have tried resetting the phone, but to no avail. The sim card is fine as it is working in other handsets.

Any help or suggestion about this is great.WhatsApp Image 2022-07-04 at 4.16.54 PM - Copy.jpeg

What kind of Warranty should I get for my S22 Plus? Is Samsung Care+ or SquareTrade good?

I think I just have bad luck, because my previous phone, a Galaxy S20 FE just bent and stopped working. I was generally careful with the device, always holding it witrh a tight grip and not dropping it and not damaging the device in any way. I really want to get warranty for the device in case I have problems like that despite my best efforts. I have heard some bad things about Samsung Care+ about on reddit and don't feel very confident about SquareTrade.

Display developed an annoying habit

The lower half, for lack of a better term, jitters constantly. This blurs whatever is rendered therein. Text is unreadable. I've never dropped it on anything harder than carpeting, in fact, it seldom leaves the house during the ~2 years I've owned it. It's never been wet.

I've done everything I can think of short of a factory reset, including booting into safe mode, flushing the cache, followed by booting into recovery and wiping the cache partition. None of this helped.

I'm open to suggestions.

Any advice greatly appreciated.

Location history from Device-PLEASE HELP

I have a Samsung Galaxy A13 running Android 12. I need to get the location history from the device. There are 2 devices with the gmail account logged in on them, so when device 2 is moving, device 1 tracking is over-ridden. So when you go into Maps timeline there are 2 devices showing on 1 account and you cannot see the timeline for device 1 most of the time. I need to know who to get the location history from device 1. Any help will be appreciated more than you can imagine, thank you!

Cannot download to the specified location

Just what is that supposed to mean? I was attempting to get an ebook when that happened. I tried more than once. Then I moved some files to sd in order to make room. That didn't work either. I also checked under both downloads and books, of course without any luck. It's a low level Samsung, A02s, which I got at (where else) Walmart just before last Christmas. Something that costs about $53 might not be worth that much.

CalyxOs data transfer to new phone after old phone screen damage?

I unfortunately shattered my phone. It still turns on but I can barely press anything on the screen. I am wondering if it is possible to transfer my CalyxOs data to my new phone somehow? It thought about doing a data transfer but not sure if it will work with the CalyxOs. If it is not possible, what about doing a data recovery tool hooked up to my laptop? Would I only get surface data or would my CalyxOs data somehow be accessible too?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks

Encrypted SD Cards

My apologies if this is a dumb question, by I am just a "regular" Android device user. I know very little more than simply using devices.

Wondering if I can save myself some trouble setting up a new phone. Can an encrypted SD card be used in a new device if that device has been set up with the same PIN/password?

Thank you for any information.

Turning off the screen has become irritating

Anyone knows what this white balloon is and how to get rid of it?
Everytime I push the button to turn off the screen, it comes up at the bottom for a second or to then goes away, but the screen stays on. Then I have to push the button again to turn the screen off. Often I have to push that button a third time.
That issue came up a while ago and I can't say what circumstances might have triggered it.
Any help on how to make it go away would be awesome!
Thanks!
