A neighbor friend has asked me if she can hop on my wifi. She says she can help pay for wifi. I know how to enable mobile hotspot on my Samsung S9+ running Android 10. But I do have some questions:

1. Can I limit sharing to just her particular phone and block out others who she may accidentally share the hotspot password with?
2. Can I limit sharing to just a certain number of data (e.g, 2GB)
3. When I’m sharing, how can I block out my phone from downloading stuff for itself? (To enable Mobile Hotspot, I have to disable Data Saver.)
4. Can I filter certain categories (like illicit websites)? I don’t want to be responsible for other people’s usage.

Personally :

1) Inspiration Profanus - Dimmu Borgir.

2) But here we are - Foo Fighters.


3) House of gold and bones - stone sour.

I use Desktop Outlook (365) for my calendar on my Desktop, Use Android Outlook App and obviously use Outlook web address and they are all working fine and if I change anything it shows up on all locations. I also have the Android preloaded calendar on mt Verizon S21 and until recently it also worked fine. It may or may not started working when I upgraded to Android 14.

If I make any change to my Outlook app they still work fine but the preloaded calendar never changes with any revisions or updates. If I add or revise a calendar event in the preloaded app it no longer shows up in Outlook.

Obviously, it appears there is no communication between the preloaded app and the Outlook apps.

Please provide any suggestions to fix this ssue.

Hello,
I already have another account on this forum which I was unaware of (Extremely sorry for that). I want to delete this account as I am not using and have also forgotten the password of the email associated with this account. I will give more details if required.

Thank you.

Hello,
Is there a way to know maximum input voltage and maximum input current supported by an android phone?

As an example, If the output voltage of a charger is 9V but the android phone supports only maximum of 5V input voltage then this would damage the battery.

If the output current of a charger is more than the maximum input current supported by the android phone then this would not damage the battery but knowing the maximum input current supported will help to buy a charger having the output current equal to or more than the maximum input current supported so that the phone can be charged as fast as possible.

(Please correct me if I am wrong in any of the above statements)

Thank you.

Samsung have begun rolling out the December security update for the S21 series.

While we have a video vault, there are so many great shorter clips I thought it might be good to have a separate thread for them. If I’m wrong, my apologies.

Here’s a great one to start:

I have an S23 and I'm thinking of getting the MetaQuest 3 VR headset. The only two storage options for the Quest 3 are 128 gb and 512 gb. I probably would get the 128 version.
I have one question:
Do the games, videos, etc have to be stored on the headset or would I be able to access any of them from my phone? I'm wondering because if I'm getting close to the 128 limit, would I have to delete files from the headset or can I also use them from my phone storage?

Thanks

Hi all,
I'm loathe to admit it, but I have very little idea as regards to how Bluetooth might be useful to me,
especially wrt my cell phone (Rebel 4, with no phone plan), which I mainly use for photos and light surfing.
If anyone would be kind enough to provide me with a basic primer, I would appreciate it; and if I were to
get one of these devices what would I be looking for?
Thanks,
.... john

Samsung has started to roll out their latest update for the Fold5 international devices, F946B. bringing with it the December Security patch.

Build number = F946BXXS1BWKI

Build date = 30 November 2023

Android Security patch = 01 December 2023

Download size = 365.05MB

Camera version = 14.0.00.46


It is a FOTA, (Firmware Over The Air), update and you can check... Settings > Software update... to see if it is available for you. Alternatively, you can connect to the Samsung PC suite, Smart Switch and check via that.

The majority of the time no issue, but at other times hours or days pass without receiving/sending texts. Then all the texts sent to me over those hours or days all appear at once. Rebooting sometimes results in them all appearing at once.

Measures tried:

• Remove/replace SIM while phone off
• Network Reset
• Change Access Point
• Delete Google Messages Cache and Storage
• Replacement SIM

This isn't related to that I have poor cellular reception at home, since periods can't receive/send texts include times I have excellent cellular reception elsewhere, and at other times am at home having no problem receiving/sending texts over WiFi.

The phone manufacturer now suggests a Hard Factory Reset. Here seeking advice please given how much work that will be (particularly given that I have carpal tunnel).

I noticed that epubs go the right way, left to right, at least usually, but pdfs are vertical. At first I thought maybe it was the phone and I checked it out with the Blu instead of the Pure. It's still the same problem. Maybe it's because of ReadEra? I don't want to have to get a bunch of apps to read the right way. Is there somehow a possibility of getting pdfs to go left to right? I can't find it in ReadEra settings.

Hi all,
I bought this at a used items store. I thought that restoring to the factory settings would allow me to use it, but apparently not;
it appears that it's locked to the owner via the iCloud. I' Also, we have a couple of iPads here, and I'm wondering if we could somehow use these accounts to get the thing working?
Any help is appreciated.

I don't really want to use that. What's a better keyboard? I want a small one that's free but still has all the stuff.

Did Rockstar Games put Tyreek Hill in GTA 6? It certainly seems that way based on the "CH33TAH" vanity plates.

Have two intend launches. Google testers require I adjust their text and background for better contrast. Here is an image of the error. It is followed by the accessibility classes. I don't have control to what class the share does. How can I resolve this.

This phone is still not charging. I have tried many different combinations of chargers, cords, a different outlet, and nothing works. Please help.

On Play Console, it asks for accessibility on parts of DatePicker. The variables they provided were date_picker_header_year & month_view. The style does not have those variables in style [<style name="DatePickerTheme" parent="ThemeOverlay.MaterialComponents.Dialog.Alert">]. Neither did I find these in docs. The code was used.
With OpenAI, was able to resolve the date_picker_header_year, but not for month_view.

The date_picker_header_year code:

The month_view code:

This TextView caused a cast error for android.widget.SimpleMonthView. Tried to import it and would not resolve
Tried to capture ViewGroup and walk thru looking for month_view. No go.


Can you tell me how to have reference

The Pure suddenly started doing a boot loop. I don"t know why. I was using a website and there was that thing about shutting it off or rebooting. I got rid of that or maybe not. Now it just keeos doing that same short loop. How do I get it to stop? I tried holding that button in as hard as I could. I also unplugged it because if it runs out of energy it will probably stop. Please don't say to use a computer because that most likely won't happen. Is it true that Motos have a big problem with that?

I dunno, Samsung is staying very, very quiet about this prospective competitor to the Oura Ring... but apparently an app icon has been spotted so it's possible that this smart ring will be announced along with the S24 series on January 17th.

I don't wear any jewelry during the night, so it would be a trick to get used to it tracking my sleep. As long as it will send data to Google Fit instead of Samsung Health, though, I think there's a huge market for a device like that.

What are your thoughts on the rumored Galaxy Ring?

Is there a way to disable the phone display waking up when I touch the fingerprint sensor. I mean I don't even have a fingerprint set up and I don't want to use it. The phone is Redmi note 9 running on Miui 13.
