Seeing an image flash on my screen

For about 2 weeks now I have noticed mostly when I press the side power button a quick image on my screen what looks like a cable motioning to be inserted into my phone. Its so quick that i am guessing thats what it is. And does not matter how much battery life I have left. I have searched the settings but cant figure this out. I would like to turn that “feature” off. Any suggestions?

Help Firefox browser - can you recommend a replacement?

Hi, I have a cheap Obama phone, ul40 and I only get 2G a month, it is several years old. So I will go to a free public WiFi place, spend a few hours downloading, then I go home and use a USB cable to transfer them to my old Dell home PC.

My phone has been acting up, so I factory reset it. I installed the Firefox browser, I like it because I could save web pages as a PDF.

I installed the new Firefox and had some problems. I saved a bunch of items, but when I linked to my PC there was only one item in downloads, everything else was now in Collections. Collections was new to me and I thought it was just labeling things.

I will check my phone's memory, I have dozens of items in Collections, I tap them and I can read the articles, but I can't seem to access them from my PC.

How do do this? Is there a way to go back to the previous...print, save as PDF, method? It seems like you fixed something that wasn't broken.

Frankly I don't know why there isn't a Save/Download button on display at all times when you see something interesting. What is the logic in starting to Print something, than previewing it, then saving the preview?

Sorry if I seem a bit irritated. Is it simply time to apply for a new phone?

Thanks

I sent that email to Mozilla support yesterday. No response yet. I scrolled through browser reviews, I looked on Firefox and apparently a lot of people are having this problem. Can anybody recommend a no frills browser? Ads are ok as long as they not videos sucking up my gigs. I used to be able Google raw confessions , then save cool threads, also daily comics. Why do they insist on adding features instead of improving speed and reliability?!

no more "ALL" posts function, how come?

so i like that feature we used to have. this allows any older threads to be seen by everyone, rather then go to each individual forum. is there a reason for this? is it because you want folks to go to the individual forums like it was way back when? now older threads are not as visible and receiving help is not as likely.

just my two cents.

App to remotely control music on my android phone using another device?

I've searched high and low but cannot seem to find an app that will help in my situation. I have a primary phone ("S2") which I want to use to play music on my second phone ("V20") on the same network. I am not trying to cast music from one device to another, but rather use my S2 as a remote to play music locally stored on my V20.
Are there any simple, music apps that can do this? It seems like really simple functionality but it must not be a common request since I cannot find any software to do this.

Help Will updating my Huawei Y7 2019 with the attached photo file wipe all my Google 3 apps off?

Hey, basically I've asked my question in the heading and the screenshot I've attached, but since reading about newer phones being released by Huawei such as the P40 pro having no Google apps at all.
At the minute my phone is working fine, apart from the update pop up's occasionally so I don't want to go ahead with the update and my phone to boot up with Google apps on it.
I've used APK sites, but would they have Google play store, Gmail etc?
If anyone could help me out with this it would be a massive help.
Thanks, Paul.

Help Changing size of the notification area at top of phone

Good morning.
I have a Samsung Galaxy A50 and everything works just fine.

I'm wondering if there is any way to enlarge the notification area at the top of my phone without changing the size of everything else on the phone ?

It's a bit hard to read (cuz it's small).

I've attached a screenshot of the area that I am asking about (in red)

Thanks

Notification App

I'm looking for a notification app that can receive generic push messages but allow removal of notifications from the server.

I've tried things like Pushover, but it's one-way. I need 2-way.

The use case is for a messaging app.

I need to be able to alert a user that he has new messages pending on all of his devices.

If the message is read on any device or online, I need a mechanism to remove the notification from all (other) devices.

Is there anything like that out there? I've searched for hours.

Thanks in advance.
