Android newbie need help!

Hello,

I received my Pixel 4a yesterday, and this is my first Android smartphone ever. Since 2013 I have only owned iPhones and looking at my Pixel 4a interface, I feel a bit lost. So many options! This is great and very exciting, but also intimidating.

No doubt that I will learn by trial and error, but can you direct me to a good and detailed guide for Android 11 newbie?

Thank you very much

Android File Transfer constantly stalling + does not transfer files FROM iMac to POCO F1

What I am working with:
Mac Os 10.15.7 (and also previous version) on an iMac Retina 5K 2019,
Xiaomi POCO 11 (running MIUI 11.0.9), and
Android File Transfer 1.0.12.

For some reason, Android File Transfer (AFT) will not allow me to transfer my files from my iMac to the POCO F1. I have been trying for an entire day now, but nothing.

I have attached screenshots of the issues that keep popping up. AFT will start the transfer, but stops a few mins in with an error (actually, numerous windows of the same error - pic below) that it cannot transfer certain audio files. However, this was not an issue months ago when I transferred the SAME audio files into my POCO Music Folder.

I initially thought: maybe the audio file names have characters that aren't recognised by AFT; I changed ALL those file names. But as you can see in the pics, that didn't help either. I even updated my OS.

As soon as these errors come up, AFT stalls, and then tells me that my phone is not connected, and "File Transfer" (on the phone) is not activated... even though it was activated every single time.

So now, I cannot transfer anything to my phone, and have no music.
Is there any other freeware that is more reliable?

Your help with this would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Phone Slow

I'm not sure what has updated on my LG Stylo Note5 in the last 48 hours but my phone has almost slowed to a crawl.
I've cleared cache, did smart clean for files and memory. Turned off and on and removed and reinserted sim. Android operating system.
Anyone else having this trouble? It's not one particular app either. It's the whole system.

Looking for ad free and paid casino games

Greetings!

I'm looking for some casino/slot type android games for my elderly mother. with the pandemic, she can't go many places, so this would be something that can entertain her somewhat.
however, most casino/slot games have many, many ads and really just want you to pay with real money to keep on playing; and besides she has a language barrier problem so a lot of ads/random questions the so-far tried games throw at her creates problems. I do not mind paying for a game. however, for the life of me, I can't seem to find any paid ad-free casino games. casino apps I searched for all contain ads, sure they are free but.... anyway if you know one or two that's truly ad-free paid or free, please let me know.

thanks!

Help ZenFone with memory issues?

I have this Asus ZenFone Live L1 ZA550KL (ASUS_X00RD) that behaves in a way I've never seen before with other Android smartphones I've used.

I owned a Samsung Galaxy S3, a Motorola G4 and even an Asus ZenFone 2 in the past. All entry to intermediate level gadgets. This ASUS_X00RD seems to have some kind of memory problem.

For instance, I open Gmail, start to read an email and click on a link in it, I go to a web page that link opens. When I go back to Gmail, it kind of refreshes itself, the screen turns white and only then its content starts to appear again.

Another example: I'm playing WordBrain 2 and decide to open a browser, check some sites, etc. When I go back to the game, it reloads as if it's newly open and doesn't go to where I was playing, but to the starting page of the game.

Any ideas what is this and how to fix it? TIA.

Apps areNotificationsEnabled not working

Hi,
i try to find out if on android chrome browser notifications are enabled.
My code here:

public boolean isPush() {
try {
boolean OK;
OK = false;
Context context = getApplicationContext();
OK = NotificationManagerCompat.from(context).areNotificationsEnabled();
return OK;​
}
catch (Exception e) {
// This will catch any exception, because they are all descended from Exception
System.out.println("Error " + e.getMessage());
msg = e.getMessage();
return false;​
}​
}

This works fine, the only problem is that areNotificationsEnabled() returns always true even when in the settings notifications are disabled.

What i'm doing wrong?
Thanks

Samsung Ace GT-S5830i transfer of piccies

I have an old Samsung Ace GT-S5830i smart phone which I'd like to take the photographs off the SD card. The phone details are:
build is GINGERBREAD XXLK3. It is pretty much unmodified. When I connect it to my laptop I can't see the files, and get messages on my laptop indicating that the phone is not an MTP device.
My question is - How do I put the phone into MTP mode please? When I look through setup I find no reference to MTP.
Thanks

Help Photo gallery freezing after upgrade to 11

I upgraded to android 11 recently. Since then when I'm deleting or editing photos in the photo gallery the next picture will become pixelated and will skip picture when I scroll to the next picture. This process takes at least 5 seconds. When I'm going through pictures and deleting the ones I don't want to keep this can waste a lot of time. Any suggestions?
