I read on here, I believe, about that to stop bloatware. If it is disabled, what manages downloads instead? I assume it's a system app.

Last update was about 36 hours ago and casting has suddenly stopped working. Tried all the obvious fixes. Have a Sony Android TV. Anyone else experience this?

I don't know how old this game are but it's being a time I played.
If I remember well the game is a point and click.
The game was about a man who was asked to sell a property. As the game unfolds, it is discovered that some residents of the house are vampires and there is a Saint Bernard dog that is a ghost.
I tried to find with all words possible in the Google playstore and at Chrome. Unfornatelly I don't have a image to show or can draw one.

What does Used com.samsung.android.mesenging mean? Is it using an app to message only or is it text messages and voicemails too?
It is a samsung android phone on the google activity log.

I'm trying to get the same quality of text tracking as google translate live camera translation. I want to track text in real time from camera, use ocr to get the string text, process it and then replace it with processed text, making it look seamless.

I know about ML Kit and I tried using it, it works great but I can't get the text to look right. I get the bounding box for the text, and the text itself, I know the position but it's not as accurate as I want it to be and it jumps around.

Ther's also ARCore which is something I think I need for smooth tracking but I'm not sure how to track text with it.

The only thing I could think of is that somehow first I would detect text and then save the image, use it for ARCore and then use that to render processed text on top of it.

I couldn't find much information about this on the internet only the ML Kit text detection and ARCore for tracking specific images. Any references or ideas are highly appreciated!

Hi,
I'm trying to use Gboard with LineageOS in 3 languages. I'd like to keep the emojis keys, which I can't have with language switch key at the same time. I noticed that when language switch key is disabled, word suggestions disappear.

Would you know, dear community, a workaround?

Thanks you!

Is there anyone here who has a solution to fix the Oppo F9 that is stuck on the logo like a line? It's only stuck on the logo until the battery runs out.

I have two databases: a source database and a target database. DBs have fully distinct schema and table structures. Using AWS DMS, I want to migrate all data from the source to the destination DB. Is it possible to map various columns from the source DB tables to various columns in the destination DB tables?

If you want further information, I can give it.

I'm looking for a fix or a workaround for using AWS DMS.

I have a problem : by mistake I have installed two accounts on my phone (the other one is that of my wife.). Therefore, in Calendar, all appointments are duplicated, and in Gmail I see two accounts. I've tried all methods mentioned by Google but the menu points mentioned don't turn up. My phone is Oneplus Nord 2 running Android 13

Can anyone assist me with my galaxy a146u 5g ? It is frp locked, which I'm not new to, I am a self taught, no school, no training self proclaimed tech for smart phones. I've manged being able to access most of the phone, except apps, accounts, lock screen, etc. But can't figure out how to disable the proper app to completely reset the frp. I even got it to where the time and notification shade will show, no notifications though. I even found the way to install app through my browser which was hard enough. Ps nothing on YouTube or the internet has helped at all. I have no access to a PC at all. Someone please assist me, I love this phone and would love it more I think if I could see it full potential.

Hi all,
I've got a MX Enjoy TV box for overseas channel subscription (BalkaniYUm).
Works fine, I bought a new Android TV yesterday Kogan U94T and I'm not getting any sound and there's a pink hue over the whole screen.
Tried different ports.
Tried new HDMI cable.
Everything else I plug into the TV works perfectly.
Plug the box into old TV works fine.
Tried all the different resolutions on the box and still the same.

Please help
Thankyou in advance.

Speech to text (as used for e-mail and text messaging) is common on Android phones but I find nothing for Android tablets. Doing e-mail from a Anfroid tablet is simple enough and more than a few people like to talk their e-mail content rather than type it.
Is there any basic reason speech to text should be more difficult for a tablet than for a phone (seems unlikely to me)?
Are there ways to do speech to text on a tablet?

How do I stop the emulator from running? When I try to debug my app (Visual Studio, C#) ,even though my phone is plugged in and seems to be the choice, when I start debugging, VS starts up the emulator. Why? How can I stop this?

I can't find it. I was checking whether it was on the sd card with Simple File Manager and it didn't show it, SD or internal either. I can't search googoo files. When I look in apps it's there, but I can't put it on sd from there. I have to put it on SD to transfer it to the Moto G Pure I just bought in order to stop those creeps from taking over MY phone.

Help I used Xperia companion but it say to allow data access but can't enable it

So, trying to help out a mate whose phone started to optimise apps and hit "63 of 63" before rebooting. It complains about a missing file/directory, though the friend says nothing was done by him other than turning it on. I charged it overnight and then tried the old "wipe cache" from the recovery menu, but still stuck. I thought maybe I could browse the system using Samsung software or a variant of Linux, but nothing sees it.



Is it cactus? Was just really after the contacts.

Just in from Australia! Hoping to gain some insight on the various issues and bugs I find on many devices.

I am looking for some advice on an app I have been developing over the last couple months. In an abstract explanation, the app's main screen (MainScreen()) shows items that the user has added. There is an add button which loads an add screen (AddScreen()) which by default shows all possible items that can be added. I have a search text field with a filter list underneath and have implemented some logic that has them work together to only show items that match both the search and filter criteria.

Currently, I am using just a regular mutable list to hold items that should be displayed. If there's nothing in the search text field and no filters are selected than we just assign the entire list (defined in a view model) to the regular mutable list in AddScreen()


the variables that are associated with the search text field (onValueChange) and filters (onClick) are all state variables but should the resultsList be a state variable defined in the view model as well?

I have a random bug that I am trying to find but cannot seem to reproduce when I try. It may have something to do with process death but after I have added an item from AddScreen and then click add to load AddScreen again, the list sometimes does not show all possible items (all of ItemMap.values in above example), even though the search text field and filters have been cleared.

I need to pay more attention to whether this happens after I am using an already running an instance of the app (and process death may have occurred) or if it is a new instance... I am thinking the former though because it always seems to happen when I am quickly trying to show someone else the app (naturally...) as opposed to me restarting an app while testing after a code change.

Any advice?

Hello. (Samsung Galaxy S7) All of the sudden this black bar appears at the bottom of my screen, ..it's a little bit over 1/8".....it doesn't bother me except can't see bottom of the icons on text messages and a few apps. My phone and battery are fine, and internet is fine except this black bar blocks things on some websites and text messeges. The phone is about 4 years old tops and works good.... Just feel like I did something to cause this black bar and want to find a solution. I have tried deleting apps, and doing alot of obvious things. i have researched it and can't find a solution...Thank you, Barb

Does anyone else using the Samsung Messages app get these texts? What would be the exploit they are trying to take advantage of?

• From international numbers
• No notification of new message, but shows up in your list of conversations with (No subject) and a date
• When you click into the conversation there is no message, no date
• Blue dot next to profile pic indicates they use Samsung chat mode (?)
