Wi-Fi connecting and disconnecting

Can a malware disconnect you from your Wi-Fi? As I have learned that virus doesn't exist in mobile devices, all that's left is a type of malware. But my device isn't showing any signs that it has a malware like what it should be. I've also tried checking if there's a timer active, the "always keep my Wi-Fi on", and all of them are right. So, if not, then what is causing my device to disconnect?

This is really unique.

So speaking of Thanksgiving, my sister mentioned in her talk the other morning about Stove Top stuffing brands having, their own merch. I was thinking run of the mill sweatpants. But I just googled it.

Wow. Really dress up only once and get that together?
Huh seem a little bit over the top only shopping for thanksgiving and not thinking, of like many days after that.
Odd though, just another random thought.

Connect my A21!

Just so this doesn't come up in the answer - I don't have wi-fi or a smart TV, just my mobile data and a not-so-smart HDMI TV. I used to use my Galaxy J7 to connect to a Screen Beam Mini 2 via Smart View on my J7. I just got a Galaxy A21 and it turns out Samsung stopped making Smart View as of a month ago (Oct. 2020). I have tried EVERY possible way to get some version of SV on this phone with zero success. I can't connect it via USB C to HDMI either so that's out. If ANYONE can find a way for me to continue using the Screen Beam or another way to mirror to my TV I'd be VERY grateful!!!!

Help Volume not working properly

When I press the volume all the way up it doesn't seem loud enough. Then I noticed that when hitting volume down it doesn't change until it get to almost the bottom then a sudden drop.
Not sure what happened? Anyone know what I can do to fix it. Looked through the settings and couldn't find anything that didn't anything.

Get Battery Status to use as trigger

I want to use my phone going on charge as a trigger. The problem is that my phone doesn't have wireless charging on board so I added a Wireless Charging Receiver that plugs into phone. Unfortunately, my phone doesn't register as charging when my phone is placed on a wireless charging mat. I assume that the charge is not large enough to register.

I am hoping that there is a way to get that charging value using Tasker but I have been unable to find a method by Googling. I have found the Battery Monitor v1.3 but can't figure out how to get any usable values out of it.

Any suggestions?

Is it a mistake. My older phone has tones of space and is similar but this one doesn't have space to update and its impossible to load a better memory manager. The one I use gave once a used only 4gb reading and I thought I d fixed it but now all the spare memory is system mem

Back Up Photos

Looking for an app that will back up my Note 9 pics to a directory I set.

I already have dropbox installed and that only works sometimes. I dont know if the app is being shut down by android or what is going on. I check my dropbox images and several are not there. Last pic may be from a week or ten days prior. If I happen to run drop box from my phone they all start uploading again.

I also have a NAS drive (WD MyCloud). The MyCloud app doesnt seem to work so great either. This morning I checked my Pics folder and the last on synced was several months ago.

Is there an app available, even paid is great, that will back up my pics everyday? I would like to send all my pics to my NAS over wifi. If it could back up my contacts and text messages that would be a plus.

Thanks for any help

Change from Imperial to Metric

Hi and thanks for your help.
I am a newbie to Android.
Xiaomi Redmi 9 with Android 10.

There is a flaw/bug in this OS.

Our family use an App, Life360.
This App shows distance in miles and I need it to be in kilometres. There is no in-App option to change it as it depends on the system settings. But, I cannot find anything in System settings to change from imperial to metric. In Language options, the only English options are English (UK) and English (US). I am from South Africa and there is no English (South Africa).
My boys all have Android phones (Huawei) and theirs display metric. I am baffled.

UPDATE:
I have just change the language of the phone to English (INDIA) and now it shows metric. Where can I report this to fix?


This is very frustrating.
I will appreciate your advice and suggestions.
TIA.
Deon
