Storage Issues with LG Fiesta

After getting low storage space warnings, I finally got an SD card. I moved the apps I could and over 800 photos to it, adding about 8 GB to portable storage, yet my internal storage only dropped about 1 GB. I went from very close to 16 GB down to 14.88, and looking at it right now I am back up to 15.45 GB.

Can someone please explain this to me, as it makes no sense to my brain.

Thank you in advance!

Android Phone To PC Without USB Cable

I have a Samsung S10 mobile phone. When transferring files from the phone to the PC, I still find it easier connecting the USB cable between the 2, and simply using Windows Explorer to copy of paste from the phone (to the PC).

I would like this straight forward interface to be available without the cable - via Wifi (I would probably even settle for slower Bluetooth to get a simple cut/copy & paste operation). The apps I have tried all seem to add extra layers and steps to the process, making the 'plug in a cable' method easier.

For example, I installed Samsung Flow. To get a photo from the phone to the PC, you have to select the photo, share it, select Flow (to share it to), then it transfers to the Flow app on the PC (or you can find the photo in a specially created Flow folder under user/pictures) - where you just have to move it to desired place on PC.

I can connect the cable, and simply copy (or cut) and paste (to the PC) in less time.

I am sure I am missing something - someone please put me out of my misery.

App Inventor Android app development with camera window constantly at top with activities changing at bottom

aiEe0.png


I am very new to Android development and would like to create a specific project. I would need the app to be split vertically approx 1:3. The top part would be a camera window that is there always. It would be paused mostly except the moments its unpaused for taking a picture(there would be a lot of picture taking). The bottom part would be independent activities.

First of all I am asking is this possible? If yes then how or at least maybe someone could nudge me to some solutions, courses, tutorials, literature tad could help with such thing.

Very grateful fro people to help me achieve my goals and improve my skills.

Apps I want to run just the java class in Android Studio....

I've run the whole app and got a successful completion but I didn't get message and demand to enter input - using the Scanner utility. Why is that happening ?
Also I'd like to run the java class and not rebuild the app all over again.
I installed the Android Studio just last week - July 2020 - and I'm running it in my desktop 64-bit Windows 10.
Previously I tested my Java using the Windows command line - JDK 8 - "javac myapp.java" and then "java myapp", I run close to 100 cases. Then I placedmy code into Studio.
HELP !

Issues with Google assistant and WhatsApp calls

Hi! I recently acquired a Samsung s20+, after years of having an iPhone.
I use voice assistant to make WhatsApp calls quite a lot since I have to talk to people abroad, while I'm driving.
I never had issues with iPhone doing this, but now with Google Assistant it hasn't been possible. samsung ringtones, Whenever I try to make a WhatsApp call or videocall, it just uses the built in phone app. So far the only thing the Assistant can do on WhatsApp is sending text messages.

I contacted Google customer support , but they weren't helpful at all. Thought I ask around here.

Device protection

Hi
I have s7 edge on latest stock rom and want to root with magisk.
Following a guide it says first I need to flash twrp recovery in odin but before this I need to enable OEM unlock in developer options. When I try to do this it shows a dialog box saying that device protection functions will not work, I click enable and it shows the switch going on but then goes back to off after a second.
What am I doing wrong? Is the something I need to disable first?
Screenshot attached of the message.

In the guide it tells me once I flash twrp I need to format data then flash both the no encrypt file followed by the magisk file. Is this the correct steps?
Is it possible to flash xposed framework on s7 edge exynos?

Thanks for helping in advance,
James

Root Moto E6 AIO Toolkit Several Models Supported

DISCLAIMER:
THIS IS ALPHA-RELEASE SOFTWARE MEANING IT'S BEEN TESTED BUT MAY HAVE BUGS.
This is a collaborated effort of several Developers that make up A-Team.

The members of A-Team nor the Android forums take any responsibility for anything you do to your phone using this or any other software.

That being said, MEET AIO TOOLKIT FOR MOTOROLA E6 developed by A-Team

This Is the AIO toolkit for the Moto E6
It was developed for XT2005-4 But has shown effective on several other models that have the SnapDragon 435 chipset.

THIS IS NOT FOR THE VERIZON OR THE MEDIATEK MODELS
I believe we tested on a canada version a TMO a SPR the Boost and RETUS

Your mileage may vary We accept No Responsibility if you try this tool and then you don't follow instructions or you make some mistake and break your device.

~ What's It Do ? ~
This is a toolkit to mod your E6 for you it helps you unlock the bootloader.

then it flashes modified firmware to the device to leave you with stock rooted ( magisk in boot.img) and a custom recovery ( twrp or batik) that for supported devices has touch working.

from there you can flash a gsi rom or cook your own rom up in the rom kitchen,
or like me stay stock rooted and use magisk with edxposed and totally tweek the e6
it also has several other features to help catch logs etc.
This toolkit comes in 2 forms
a linux package thats an archive you open and start from the terminal

or for those that dont use linux daily,

a portable linux disrto that we built to run the program and a few other bundled things such as superR's free kitchen and android image kitchen ( Credit to those go's to the respective dev's)

the downloads are available at my development team's website,
And the read-me is there with the downloads.

Getting attributes from programatically added Views

I'm stuck developing an App that does the following:

I can add "Spots" with the Add button at the bottom of the activity_main.xml, I add them programatically, so I have a Layout with the "Spot Editor" that are just buttons and Text Inputs of every row to be added.

I inflate the entire Layout as a View in the activity_main.xml, so then I just want to fill data in the buttons and text inputs and "Add the Spot", so I delete that View of "Edit the Spot" and put another View programatically just the same way that is the "Final Spot", that displays the filled data with Text, not Text Inputs.

With the pencil icon I want to go back to "Edit mode"...

How can I get the data from the programatically added Views to fill the new Views (that I'm also adding programatically to the layout)?
