Hi, I have an Android Phone, and have installed an app that contains some lectures related to my field. Today I noticed that my daily data allowance got over pretty fast. On doing data analysis, Android settings don't show much unaccounted data usage. However the topmost figure in the data usage column (DOBULE_APP) which shows data in kb, actually shows 1 gb+ usage on clicking. A 3rd party app shows something labelled UID 5 using up max data. Is there someway to know whats eating up my data? Also, if there were a way to know how much space is being used by a particular app in total (similar to what is possible on my ipad), I might be able to see which app's size is balloning the max, and whether the total size corresponds to the downloaded data.

Would appreciate any help in this regard.

Reading alot of these threads clear up a few things. I have a galaxy note9 and I was becoming convinced I needed a new phone because, my phones mobile data connection went on the fritz. I was changing the networks, from 3G, to 4G/LTE and back just to make calls. Often times I'd be able to make a call but couldn't text or vice versa. Then my mobile data would work, but text and calling didn't.

I got an email as well about my sim card being out of date and not having a 4G phone. I bought a new sim card, still had problems. Then I read my phone would stop receiving updates this summer. Needless to say I was frustrated. So I decided to do a 90 day trial with Mint. If I had the same issues with my network then it was my phone if not then it was ST.

I just, like today, got it transferred over after a week of dealing with ST. I'll save yall some trouble hopefully. This is how I kept my number.

Your ST account number is your current ST sim card number. I couldn't find an account number online or in app. They told me my account number was my IMEI number which caused 4 days of incorrect requests.

Text NTP to 611611 to get your transfer pin. You will not find it in your account like they say, you can't set it like they say. Each time you text, you'll get a new pin so don't text until you're ready for one. It times out.

They will not tell you your zip code over the phone, even if you verify your account. They can however check as many guesses as you've got. Had a zip code I hadn't recided in for over a decade, which turned out to be correct. DO NOT let them hang up without guessing the right zip code.

Lastly, when you call press 2 (or whatever the menu at the time you call) for transfer my number. Enter your new Sims card number. If its a different carrier it won't recognize it. When it asks if you want to enter another one, say no.
This will get you to the transfer department. Ask to be transferred to the Port department, they are the ones to help with this.

This was all info frustratingly gathered over 8 days. No offense to other carriers, but I'm never going back. I'm enjoying Mint alot, and I'm no longer having network issues. Plus the customer care team are great and has let me know that ST and Verizon are notorious for trying to keep numbers, they cause the most problems with transfers.

Hope this helps.

How do I transfer color hex values from native c++ to xml? I want to have changeable colors in panels that are being changed by c++ code. Since the app gui is xml, I need to change colors in the xml from c++. If there is a way to change colors using rgb values, that would be useful too.

Android.settings,then lge.lickscreensettings, then lge.launcher3, then android.mms, then android.incallui
What does these mean?
Does my husband have a secret app or something?
If so how do I find it

I am planning to get the z fold 3. Should I get it now or wait until Prime Day? Currently Samsung is offering it for $1156(with trade in of my cracked s10+ and first responders discount) along with $250 Samsung credit to buy accessories. During Memorial Day it was a free galaxy watch 4 but they recently changed to the credit. Also do you recommend getting the s pen with it? Thanks

I tried to install an apk, but I accidentally exited off the install screen, and my phone's storage showed that there was no space left and I couldn't find that app anywhere, whether on my settings>apps, or in my file explorer (7zipper)
Anyone know how to uninstall it

My Father has forgotten the pass code to his brand new Nokia TA 1283. I have tried to factory reset this phone but no option seems to be available without unlocking the phone first. I have also no way of enabling USB debugging to try connect to a PC so I am at a loss for how to fix this. I feel terrible for the complete waste of a phone and money.

I appreciate any help.

This morning when i looked at my phone i had this going on. I did not download anything and was unable to turn phone off as this was going on. Is this a hack on my phone?

I'm trying to resolve an issue with the Android Lost app, and unfortunately the developer's forum page is closed. I'm hoping someone here may be able to help me troubleshoot.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled, cleared cache and data, but every time I reinstall Android Lost v3.26 on my wife's Google Pixel 3a running Android 12, I get the same following issues:

First, it opens and says Personal Notes, PIN code required. It will only take the old PIN, which I'm curious how it's remembering the old PIN if I have completely uninstalled, deleted its data, rebooted the phone, etc.? (Yes, I removed the Administrator permissions)

After entering the correct PIN, I get a popup, "Use Your Location", which I click OK.

It then instantly pops up the next window:

"Some Permissions are missing. For this app to work as expected you must accept the permissions. Let us go through them one by one."
I click OK. (It does not provide me any permissions to select from.)

Once again, instantly, another window pops up:

"Not all permissions were accepted. Most likely you have clicked deny and never ask again. To allow permissions you must go to your phone's settings menu and set it manually."
I click OK.

I'm sure these permissions are the crux of the problem since they need to be allowed, yet, they are not being requested for some reason through the app. I'm assuming it has to do with Android 12, as it worked fine on Android 11. Though, others have stated that it works for them on Android 12, so I'm not sure what is going on.

Since it seems to be a permissions issue, I thought if I root the phone, maybe it would help somehow. Nope, still doing the same thing. I've even went into the phone's settings and allowed all permissions for the app, yet it's still not working. When I run the troubleshooter from the app, I get the following results:


Why is it still saying all these permissions are missing, when I have clearly enabled all of them under the app's settings manually? I do not understand why this is happening.

I have attached the app log file that is generated when running the troubleshooter from the app. Hopefully, someone can make sense of it.

Good Afternoon,

For several weeks I have been plagued with the corrupted Google Play Services update which produces the persisting message ' Google Play Services keeps stopping'. Messages on the the internet make suggestions as to how to uninstall and re-install this app, but none of the suggested solutions seem to work.
This problem makes the unit virtually inoperable.
It is apparent that many Samsung Android users are having the same problem.
Any suggestion for a definitive method of correcting this problem would be gratefully received.

So a while ago I made a post about my old Moto G Play 2021 having data issues. When i was using mobile data rather then wifi, things that used SSL seemed to not work (visiting reddit on chrome would yield an ERR_CERT_AUTHORITY_INVALID error, and don't let me visit websites like that.) Stuff like youtube or discord wouldn't work, but spotify and googling shit worked somehow.
I had tried full factory resets, syncing the time, buying a new sim card, clearing cache and cookies, etc. I've genuinely never heard of anyone having an issue like this on the internet after so much searching.

I gave up, bought a Pixel 5a, and it worked for a bit, but as of this morning, the issue is happening again. I genuinely have no clue what I could do, first it only worked with 5G and now even that isn't stopping the issue. If anyone knows of anyone or anything that can fix this, please let me know. I genuinely have nothing left to go to at this point.

My phone is always full of memory, is there any way to increase it?

Can anyone recommend a easy to root/twrp clean rom tablet that is current?

I just want it to mod anything from 8"-10" tablet is fine.

As far as price $200 but i would spend up to $349 as it is a toy so the cheaper the better.
Something readily available.

Thanks.

Anybody got spammed through android system?

I've been reading something on Techradar and a brief message came up. But for some reason a window popped out at the botton of the screen with details CITI(alert). I knew it was via Samsung Messages app because it made the same notification sound as messages with edge lighting style(Samsung S21). Plus it had count budge. But this windows looked very suspicious.. I've never seen messages with this type of pop out window. Then i opened messages app(not the pop out window) and no message was to be found in the list. I went to notification history in the setting and saw that Android System was used last. Now this Android System is responsible for notification and especially for Alerts,devs, updates, network security and all other very important system notifications. I wonder if message came from API or from my system? And it also couldn't came from the browser because notifications for browser in blocked by android in android settings as well as browser itself.

I'm on latest Android 12 with May Security updates.

Anybody else seen anything like that?

My wife has the providence Journal that keeps comeing up every time she tries to use the phone. We can't find a "unscribe" or "delete" or "remove" in order to get rid of it.

Can someone tell me how we can remove this from her phone?

I have the LTE Watch 4 Classic and I am able to receive calls on the watch. However, the calls do not come through to my phone. I assumed I would have a choice when receiving a call - answer on the phone or the watch. However, I'm only getting the option to answer on the watch, my phone never rings. Is this expected behavior? If not, what do I need to look at to correct this?

Is anyone else here having this issue?

Google Assistant prompt pops up at things that sound nothing like "Google". I can say "let's go outside, dogs" and BLOOP! Google Assistant pops up. I have belched, grunted and even moved garden tools around... and Google Assistant popped up, thinking I asked for it!

This has only started since I have owned the Z Fold 3. Any idea on how to stop this stupid prompt from popping up?

does anyone happen to know how to get the sd card to become internal storage on the a21? my lg k20 did adoptable storage so i went from 35 to 64gb for storage, but for the life of me, i can't get the a21 to do this. on the k20 if i formatted the sd in the phone i got the option to add it to internal storage, but it fails to do that on the a21. or did the newer android OS take that away?

its very difficult trying to get an android app for all format video player -that does Not have -Recent and bookmarks - I now see that "Video Player All Format" has the same rubbish. I do not wish for my videos to be Left on my TV as thumbnails or recent - I find this very annoying - VLC videolan also has this rubbish.

id there any all format video player that does not have this ?

Hi there,
Is there anyone out there that maybe can help me with issues concerning opening an offline website on my tablet.
Thanks for replies.
Andy

can anyone tell me what this icon in a phones status bar means? Is it an app notification? Know what app? It's not my phone.

I have this old LG G2x Android phone that's been sitting in my closet for five years, and it has some stuff on it that I really need to access. Specifically, a bunch of text in an app called Colornote. I was able to get the phone to power on after I bought a new battery, but the problem is that it isn't giving me any access. It keeps asking for my google login, but when I enter my google info, it just says "Your username and password do not match. Please try again." As you can see in the screenshot, it suggests a help page to recover my account info, but it's not at all helpful to me because I already know my username and password, and I am entering them correctly. I even tried changing my password just to be sure, but the phone still won't accept my info.

Any ideas? Thanks!

Hello all,

I have a Redmi note 10 JE phone running Android 12 SKQ1.210821.001

My problem is that the WiFi will turn off automatically but wont turn on automatically. Turn on WIFI automatically is already turned on. Sometimes I forget to turn the WIFI on manually and unintentionally use my mobile internet, which is annoying and could cost me money.

Does anyone know what the problem could be? Or is there a way to stop WIFI automatically turning off.

Thank you.

I have a dying Samsung Galaxy S4, and it is increasingly looking like recovering data from that phone will become a months-long project, with maybe a 30% chance of succeeding (not great odds). If I upgrade my phone now, and try to get on without the data on the old phone, will it be possible for me to boot the old S4 once I get it into a bootable setup? Can a Verizon-specific Samsung S4 be booted without a SIM card?

A related question: If I upgrade to a Google Pixel 6 with a different carrier - probably T-Mobile - will the T-Mobile SIM card be able to work in the old Samsung S4? Once I get the S4 to boot, some applications like Whatsapp will want to see the phone having its original phone number.

(Have already submitted this to Google in both Phone app developer email and as an app review but I'm interested in what others have noticed/any suggestions to help?)

The phone app on my Google Pixel 3a (likely the same on other Pixel phones) has become difficult to access after recent updates. The incoming calls display is tiny and up at the top of the screen, instead of taking up the whole screen with the option to swipe up to accept calls. I have to touch a little button to accept a call. The only time I seem to get a full screen incoming call screen now is if the phone screen is locked/blank.

Now, instead of remaining visible on screen my calls in progress sometimes become invisible on the phone so I cannot navigate back to them and switch, for example, between phone and speaker for the sound choice. I cannot find any setting for the phone to make sure the calls incoming and in progress remain front and center on my phone during calls.

If this is a design change it is bad and makes the phone much harder to use as a phone. I want to continue to be able to swipe up to receive calls and I want my call in progress to stay on the screen, not hide from me somewhere.

PS I just got a bounceback on the email to "apps-help@google.com" saying the email box is no longer monitored and pointing me to the online help page support google dot com. I resubmitted the remarks there. I don't actually expect Google to read their user reviews so I'm guessing the posting of the same remarks there is rather pointless.
