Nvidia Shield Connection Problems, perhaps? Please help?

Hi, I'm experiencing a great amount of frustration and I'm really hoping someone can help me. I have a brand new Nvidia Shield I plugged in and it's stuck at the home screen. When I restart it I can usually move about 1 to 2 clicks with the remote and then it won't go any further than the home screen. Odd thing is I just retired my Fire TV because it was doing the EXACT same thing. It was fine for a long time and then just stopped.. Since I'm having the exact same problem with both devices I'm thinking it's my connection however the internet seems to be working fine at 1000mpbs. I have purchased a new expensive USB cord with gold connectors. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much!

App Inventor Android studio - java - mysql connection

My issue is that once I insert the class.formane(com.mysql.blabalba), my app just crashes?
Is there anyone that could help me please? I really don't understand why my app doesn't want to function...

Problem with moving sms

I have a new phone and am trying to move my sms. For this I have used SMS Backup & Restore. I think I did this right, but I have a problem with how the messages appear on the new phone. Depending on what messaging app I am using I get different results. Thus, if I use Messages I see everything there is in the backup. However, if I use Next SMS, which I would prefer to use, I don't see everything. For some strange reason the messages that are from my Contacts have disappeared. Can anyone explain why this is the case? (Had the same problem with some other apps.)

Help with system design

Hi everybody. I am a student and a completely new person that I want to put my sound processing algorithm into practice. I envision my application like this:
+ Turn on my apps.
+ Go to youtube
+ the application takes the audio data from youtube and processes it directly to the speaker.
If people don't understand what I mean then there is a similar System on windows described here. I would be very grateful if anyone could show me what to do. Wishing everyone a happy and healthy new year. Thank for all.

Mxq Pro 4k

I have an mxq pro 4k that was connected to a crt tv via rca which I used for a long time with no issues. I got a new 4k samsung tv(hdmi) and when I connect it it plays for a while then the sound suddenly stops while video plays. I tried with RCA connections and it does the same. Any idea what could be the cause of this. I have tried changing multiple settings but no joy.

No styles.xml file when I created a new project

I've just started developing android applications with Android Studio, I've watched couple of tutorial videos so I'm not very good at it, one of the tutorial videos used a file called `styles.xml` which is in `res/values`, but when I went to that folder, I didn't find the `styles.xml` file, I thought it may have glitched and not generated itself once I created my project, can somebody please help me?

Help Personal safety app for sharing location: Android & iOS

Sometimes, one of my children won't be in the safest area. If I go to pick them up, I like them to be able to see where I am so that they know when to expect me, and to stay safe in the meantime. Conversely, if they're using their own transport, e.g. cycling, I like them to keep me updated where they are from when they start travelling to when they reach home, so that if something goes wrong, I can be aware of it as soon as possible.

Google used to make a personal safety app like this, for both Android and iOS. It was respectful of privacy — it shared only when the sharer explicitly asked it to (preventing stalking), the sharer could turn it off manually at any time, and it had an automatic 24-hour time out anyway. But it didn't work well, and it's been discontinued.

I see that Google now has a Personal Safety app to do the same thing, but it's available only on Pixel phones. So, while I can use it, my children can't.

I have been looking for a suitable app. There's the bSafe app, but you can't even test it without paying a rather expensive fee on every phone where it's used; the costs quickly add up. (It has a host of features that we don't need.) I'm not going to pay a lot of money for something before I've even had a chance to test it.

I know that this can be subjective, but I would like some ideas for a good app to use, please. What the app needs is:
  • One person can share their current location (automatically updated using GPS) to a chosen second person.
  • Sharing doesn't start unless manually initiated by the sharer.
  • Sharing can be manually turned off at any time, and preferably also has an automatic timeout.
  • It needs to work on both Android and iOS.
  • The price needs to be reasonable (I'm not flush with money).
Thank you!

Need help with foreground service

Can anyone please help me. Completely new to Android development, am currently using Kotlin. I made my very first online streaming media app, but whenever i change apps, or turn off the screen, the audio stops. I've tried looking through the Android docs, but i can't understand it. Can anyone please help me!

Boot From SD to Clear Device

I have an Amiko A5L OTT which I bought a few years ago with software installed on it. I no longer use the software and want to install the device software on it. I have the software on an SD card but cannot boot the device from this card.

There is no option to reset the device (pinhole or AV options not available on this device).

Does anyone know how I can get the device to boot from the SD card (even using a keyboard)?

Every time I try it the old software loads and I have no options there to load it. I can see the SD card and access its contents but cannot boot this way either.

On Screen Keyboard sounds

Overnight my Pixel 4a decided that when you type on the screen keyboard it will make a clicking sound for each key. I've went to settings and turned off everything that has sound associated with it and nothing changes the keyboard. None of my other icons etc. make any noise when clicking on them but the keyboard and it's driving me crazy. This thing has come close to taking flight and it will eventually if I can't get the damn thing to shut the hell up!!

LG Stylo 6 Screen Saver

Both my husband and I just got new Stylo6's and we love them. One thing though - on his phone, when charging, the clock screen saver comes on automatically, whereas even though I have it turned on on mine, it doesn't. It works when I press "start screen saver" and its set to automatically start when charging, it just won't, and I can't seem to figure out why.

Limit phone calls to Contacts?

I'm looking for an app that should be pretty straight forward but I haven't been able to find one yet. In an effort to block robocalls I need an app that will only let the phone ring if it is from a telephone number listed in my contact list. All other calls should be forwarded to my voicemail giving the caller the option to leave a message. Can anyone help with an app like this?

Thanks in advance... Bob
