Huawei mate 2 won't work

So I have a huawei ascend mate 2 phone. I was on at&t network . I'm having trouble getting the phone to stay on... when I turn it on sometimes it just shows the huawei symbol and that keeps flashing on the screen.. or it will go to my home screen but I'm only able to keep the phone on for a minute or so... can't figure why....
Anybody have this issue ?

No notification sounds for calls, texts, etc.

My appologies for not knowing more info.

My good friend a state away just got a Samsung A20, and he says that there are no sounds for any calls, texts, or other ways of messaging.

I have little experience with Samsung, and am hoping someone with this device or similar can help.

As he can't tell when he gets messages, it is hard to get information from him.

I will try to get more, and post it here.

Thanks in advance.

Help I have a how to question regarding an old Nexus 7

I have a Nexus 7 from back in 2012 that I was going to give to my 5 year old grandson to play with. I charged it last night and it booted just fine but I have a how to question. When new the Nexus had an old OS on it and I upgraded it several time and then I had to downgrade it to Android 4.4.4 because the next version up was unstable on this model. If I were to do a factory reset on this device would it downgrade to the older OS or stay at Android 4.4.4? If it would downgrade to the earlier OS is there a way to remove my account from the device as currently it can't access the Google Play anymore as my account password has changed since it was last used and I don't want to put my account password back on the device since I'll be shipping it to another state. All my daughter is looking for is something that he can play some video games on and not use her cell phone. Any help and advice will be appreciated.

Upgrade or Keep

After this pandemic I won't be going back to my old job, which is a good thing, however with the job I had a Huawei P20 Pro, which has worked great so far. Though for some features and apps I preferred my older Samsung S5.

Now, I could see about trying to get the phone from work cheap... Save me some money, or get a plan and pay for a phone for the next 2yrs.

I'm in Canada and seems that a lot of high rated phones aren't sold through carriers like Xiaomi or even Sony. I am looking at the S10 though. Ideally, looking at this list and hoping something better.

Is the s10 that much better than the Huawei? Is there something better and cheaper?

I baby my phones and they last years and still look new. Hoping to get something to last a few years and play games on. Like marvel contest of champions. I might start video recording some guitar repairs for YouTube so decent video would be nice.

Galaxy S5 model SM-G900A stuck auto start loop

I have a factory unlocked Galaxy S5 model SM-G900A phone stuck in an auto start loop. When I start the phone it shows the large Samsung logo, followed up with another colored rainbow around a smaller Samsung log, then I get the "Android is Starting, starting apps", then it just reloops with the latter colored Samsung log with "Android is Starting, starting apps" and continues in this auto loop.
Yesterday I tried so many suggestions and it is just very frustrating that nothing has worked to solve this. One suggestion was to flash the phone. I went to Samsung's webiste, plugged the phone in with the USB cable and was following this person's video only to get the "your device is not supported" message!
I have tried at least 10 of the suggestions (recovery mode, wiping the cache, downloading mode, etc.) with the power button, volume up & down buttons, home screen button as well as replacing the battery but nothing has worked so far. The power button doesn't appear to be stuck, the battery contact points freely move and there is no movement at the bottom of the battery. I have found various software's such as dr.fone but do not see the United States SN-G900A model in any of them. I do not want to lose any data by doing a FACTORY RESET. The phone is protected with a 4 digit pin. Since the phone is locked, I cannot check the box to enable USB debugging. As a result I am not able to view the phone contents either when I connect the phone with a USB cable to my computer.
Any suggestions on what I can do to fix the auto start loop and to recover my data files are greatly appreciated. Thank you!!

Running out of space

I have a Samsung A30, I am located on a military base with no access to a computer so I can't flash to a stock rom, but I need to do the best to solve this problem:

I have to reset my phone every few hours, when I power it on it shows 40Gb free, after 1 or 2 hours it shows 30Gb free and after a couple hours it runs out of space.

Developer options are enabled on this phone, OEM Unlocking, USB debugging, verify apps over USB and multiple PBAP Properties.

Also, Magisk Manager is installed.

What could be causing it or what could be filling up my space?

Have the following problems with Samsung Galaxy A50

Hello.

I am a new member, and have the following problems with Samsung Galaxy A50 phone,

The phone is running android version 10 and is up to date.

The phone crashed and had to have the software re-stalled so I sent the phone to Samsung and they fixed the problem and re-stalled the software but when I started to setup the phone up as soon as I connected the phone to my router the setup software said checking for updates and then it download the updates, then the setup carried on.

I use a pin to sign in to my phone but sometimes when I switch my phone off the pin screen
does not appear on the screen and other times the pin screen will appear.

sometimes find that the ringtone does not work someone can ring me but don’t hear the phone ring but most of the time the phone ringtone works fine.

I use a pin to sign in But sometimes I find that the when I tap the screen the phone does not enter the number I am tapping. Also sometimes when I enter the right pin the phone tells me wrong pin entered but I have entered the right pin.

find that the battery drains down fast, have turned the brightness down and have screen saver on as well but still the battery drains down fast.

Find that the brightness has a mind of its own turn the brightness down to half way but the brightness is still to bright.

Find that when changing the battery the phone changes the battery fast, but have fast change turned off.

Any help with these problems would be great.

Thanks

Matthew

Please Help! ANDROID CANNOT DETECT/RECOGNIZE SANDISK 128GB SD CARD

Hi. I would like to seek help or suggestions regarding the issue with my newly bought SD card.

My phone is a Huawei Y7 Pro 2019 and I bought a Sandisk 128GB SDXC card for additional storage capacity.

So, what I did was I immediately mounted the card in my phone to check of course, thinking it's compatible since stated in the specs that my phone accepts SDXC cards. My phone prompted that the SD was "Low Level", I just ignored that since that happened many times already with other sd cards i owned and it worked fine.

After that, I ejected the SD and plugged it in my laptop so that I can copy my files from my old SD (Sandisk 32GB) to the new one. Upon mounting the new SD card again in the phone, it showed that some files got corrupted/missing. I ejected the SD and reformatted it in the laptop using a card reader, but after that it wont read/detect in my phone anymore.

I've tried to fix it by doing these:
- Wiping/cleaning the actual SD card
- Fix by CHKDSK and via CMD
- scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors
- Changing the Drive Letter
- Reformatting it again using the SD Formatter, even formatting it in overwrite mode
- Tried formatting it to FAT32 using Tokiwa Fat32 Formatter, hoping it won't read because SD is in exFAT, but still, it didnt work.

I also tried mounting it to another phone, but still it was not detected.

The thing is, it is readable in my Laptop so I know it's not broken. Finally, I installed the exFAT/NTFS for USB by Paragon and connected the SD to card reader and then to my phone via OTG and amazingly it got detected. I was not able to mount it because it is a premium feature but it just confirmed that the SD is really still working.

Is there any way I can still use this SD card in my phone without using the card reader or even paying for the app? Or is it hopeless?

Thanks in advance!
