Help Phone updating WiFi searches.

Hi, I am trying to find out how to stop my OnePlus 11 Android mobile from always updating the WiFi internet searches made on my laptop. Every time I go to Chrome, on my phone, all of the internet searches that I made on my laptop are listed, which I then need to delete or the list would be hundreds long. The searches are shown as "suggested searches" when Chrome is first opened. I also use Chrome on my laptop.

System application Android 12 with strange name

Hi,

On my Moto G31 phone discovered a strange name application that was having access to my storage, calendar and contacts.

Now it is deactivated with no possibility to uninstall it.

It is the last application showing in the system application list, a strange name like Chinese characters translating ‘Please Remove the device and add the new device’

Is this some kind of a malware?

Thanks.

Camera vs. banking app

Hi All,

Been doing remote deposit checks since Covid a couple years ago using my LG G6 without any problems. Now I've got a 2 week old A54 that refuses to take proper photos of a check for RD using my credit union app. I tried a dozen times and while the pix looked clear, they would not auto-discern and populate the $$$ amount into it's slot. Typing it by hand means it might take a week to clear whenever a person has a chance to look at it. This app is by and for our local credit union and appears to have no developer or troubleshooting site.

I took the check and my phone by their local office today and let them try, same results. The person who verifies the RD says it's all garbled when it comes through, and doesn't even look like an image. Their app's photo button has no settings, but they'd likely be separate from the camera settings, right? Any ideas on what's next? It'll be a month before the next check comes in...

Web audio recording - microphone disabled during screen lock

I'm developing a web app that uses audio recording. The issue I'm facing is that when the phone locks after inactivity, Android shuts down the microphone, probably due to a security policy.

I'm not aware of any way to allow a website to keep the microphone on during a screen lock.

Is anyone aware of how to shut this behavior off, or work around it? I think a mobile app can probably do it, but I'm wondering if a web app can.

Thanks for your help!

If you like solitaires, you must try Solitaire Master, you won't regret it...

I am an indie developer and after more than 2 years of work, I have published a new collection of solitaires, to replace Solitaire Collection (Lite and Premium versions) that have been in the Play Store for more than 10 years getting excellent reviews (4,4 stars in Google Play).

Solitaire Master is a collection of solitaires (currently about 90 different types) that includes all the classics and many other wildly addictive solitaires.
With Solitaire Master all the details have been taken care of, but above all, an optimal gaming experience has been achieved.
In Solitaire Master I have included solitaires of all kinds and I have tried to implement all the ideas that I liked after trying more than a hundred solitaire games. It is perfect both for casual players and for the most demanding ones, since it allows you to configure each game to your liking.

Among the large number of features of Solitaire Master, we could highlight:

- Play with one tap, double-tap and drag and drop
- In-game gestures for the most common actions
- Option to use gestures as a shortcut to the most used actions
- Auto play on obvious moves
- Game recording for each solitaire
- Undo and redo moves (unlimited)
- Hints (one at a time or all together)
- Beautiful graphics
- Relaxing sound effects
- Amazing victory animations
- Time, move and score counters
- Detailed statistics of each game
- Filtering of solitaires (favourites, duration, difficulty, chances of victory...)
- Customisation of the background, decks, card backs...
- Multiple layouts in each solitaire to adapt it to different device sizes (phone or tablet), aspect ratio and screen orientation.
- Google Play Games support
- Achievements and leaderboards
- Free
- Play offline
- And many more options that you will discover little by little...

50MP camera, but app only creates 30MP photos

I've got a Moto G31 2nd hand, just received it and set it up. It says on the back (and the specs I find online) it has a 50MP camera. Yet in the camera app, under settings, photos, rear photo resolution, I see "high resolution", "recommended: 7.5MP", "4.8MP". Weird they don't recommend the full one. Anyway the full one (which doesn't say the resolution), saves 30MP files. I checked after transferring to computer. The other two are what they say. How do I get 50MP?

Please Help! Lost all of my home screen website shortcut icons

Android 11
Moto g stylus (XT2115DL)

Here is what happened.

In 'Settings/Network and Internet/Advanced/Private DNS' on my phone I changed the setting from 'Private DNS provider hostname' = 'dns.adguard.com' to 'Off' because it was causing problems with an app by blocking the ads.

Now the app works again.

BUT...

All of the website shortcuts on my home screen disappeared completely. I tried turning the private DNS on again but they are gone. I had dozens of them that were really important and I don't even know what is missing yet until I need it and won't have it. Some I use all the time and others only on occasion. They are REALLY important. It will take forever to reconstruct them. I know, I know I should have backed it up. But that lecture won't help now.

Is there any way to restore these or at least get some kind of list of what they were. I assume not, but if there is some genius here who can help it would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you.

Edit: Just figured out I can get some of them from my Chrome browser history. But dozens of them won't be in there.

More sad news

Tickle, my almost 11 year old German Shepherd died yesterday. She had degenerative myleopathy, it's the canine version of ALS. She'd been losing a little bit of coordination for a long while, it would get a bit worse then level off but as time went on it progressed quicker. She also had arthritis so that didn't help her compensate for her gait/coordination loses, even though she was medicated she was stiff in her back legs - where the disease's effects start. She went downhill fast over the past week, I think she had some sort of event, she fell or jumped or strained herself somehow and wasn't in good enough shape to overcome this setback this time. She lost her balance and ended up leaning/standing on her front knee with her back legs and body crumpled underneath. She did that multiple times Sunday and yesterday so it was time to say goodbye. I'm devastated, it's so empty and quiet without her (and Raphael) here.

Drag the Windows 11 screen with the mouse, like you do on Android

Ever since I've been playing Android games on an emulator on the PC (for the larger screen and better sound), I've got used to dragging items with the mouse, and scrolling the screen with the mouse (as in holding the left button and dragging). I now find myself trying to do this in Windows, say on this webpage instead of using the scroll wheel. I found this program - GitHub - Mikhail22/drag-scroll--autohotkey: AHK scripts - but it's very old (Autohotkey said it needed to install an older version) and seems not to tell Windows quick enough to scroll the other way. It moves the screen the wrong way for about 6 lines, then goes the right way.

Any better ways?

WhatsApp only exports media from last few days

On WhatsApp for Android (v13), exporting a chat with media only exports media from the last few days.

To take an example, I've got over 2,300 media files with a contact on WhatsApp, but when I export the chat with media, only about 40 media get exported, and only the text from the last few days.

The exports were attempted directly to Google Drive. Also tried other options. Via Total Commander, no media gets exported. Via bluetooth, about 45.

If I export withOUT media, all of the text gets exported. So that is a solution to get all of the text. But I also need all of the media, not just 2% or less of it.

Any third-party software or other workarounds? WhatsApp iPhone has iMazing, but WhatsApp Android seems less well-supported for this, based on my searches.

Camera colors on different phones and where are my threads

I just took a picture with the Pure and noticed that the colors were way off, and when I used my friend's OnePlus Nord it was more accurate, though still not perfect. Is there a way to adjust the Pure to do a better job? Also, the site just got an attitude adjustment that has definitely made it worse. I don't like having the alerts way at the bottom when they were much handier at the top. I cant even fnd my threads. Things should be left well enough alone...if it ain't broke, don't "fix" it!

Hell for two

Recently I attempted to share a file from the old Moto G Play (2021) to the new Moto G Pure. I figured I would use Bluetooth but I guess I figured wrong. Simple File Manager did not show such an option. Instead I went with Nearby Share, which apparently uses Bluetooth. They seem to recognize each other but I cannot force the Pure to connect. I don't know why there would be such a problem. I shared files from the government Blu, which I think would be even lower spec than the Pure. I also shared a file from my friend's phone, the Nord from OnePlus, via Bluetooth as perhaps the only choice. Why is the Pure rejecting the Play? They're both by Motorola, which I think if anything would nake them more compatible.
