I decided to link my S23 to my PC via USB, and it looks like it's impossible. The web says to find a Settings area labeled "System" and change the USB setting. My phone has no "System" area. I looked through all the settings, and I can't find anything that relates to connecting via USB.

I saw a bunch of nonsense about going through Microsoft, logging in, blah blah blah. I have no interest in turning this into a huge project. I just want to connect so I can delete a bunch of old files from the phone.

Nothing shows up on the PC or phone when I connect the cable, and I installed Samsung's USB driver on the PC.

Samsung have finally announced the details for the Galaxy Z Fold5 and Flip5.


Launch date is 11th August but those pre-ordering could receive them as early as the 4th August.

Not too much difference in spec's from the Fold4. See the differences, here...


Not too much difference in price for those pre-ordering as 512GB storage is being offered for the price of 256GB = £1,749.00p

Hello, I'm trying to connect to a VPN through OpenVPN and a SSH tunnel, but the browser won't forward my traffic to an app running in the subnet of the server, even though VPN is connected and the SSH tunnel says that I'm also connected to the server. (Works properly on PC)

Could this be a problem with SSH tunnel traffic forwarding in android or should I look elsewhere?

My phone is a Samsung Galaxy A53 5G, I've tried two SSH clients: JucieSSH and OpenSSH in Termux. I've also tried two VPN clients: OpenVPN from the PlayStore and OpenVPN for android from F-Droid.

I have a Samsung s21 ultra and my calls have been going in and out
Verizon support says bad connection to cell towers but I have seen a lot of articles that it was the Samsung Android update from June or July 6 I just got another update today July 29


Anyone on this forum having this issue

Also sometimes clicking hang up it takes a while to hang up

Android devs: when attaching an image to a text message on Samsung Zflip 4, how do I change default sort order? Is it possible to edit Google messages app settings to default to this A to Z sort setting?

anybody play it?
i think this is cool seeing the tennis greats play it:

Any recommendations on an older model android to root? I don't want to root my Z Fold 4 so I am just going to purchase another phone like Galaxy S18 for example.

Let the experiments begin!

• Forum link to AF at the top right
• Green "POSTS" button links to AF's "What's New"
• Full List of Categories with Recent Posts

Keep in mind this is a draft. The content is incomplete. This is a placeholder.

We'll want to correlate WordPress Taxonomies (Categories, Tags, etc) with Xenforo Forum Taxonomies (Nodes, Prefixes, Custom Thread Fields, etc), so the structure is important. It needs to be clear and concise yet comprehensive. I've been researching solutions and am currently exploring 2 options more closely.

More to come soon...

Hi. I just downloaded Avast Essentials to my Samsung A31 after stupidly clicking on a dodgy link sent to me via WhatsApp from a former work colleague. Do I need to deactivate the pre existing McAfee antivirus thats in-built to the phone? Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

Are there any decent mobile webcams that work with Android that I can use for my zoom calls while im in my car??? I am assuming that most of them would be bluetooth

Share your opinions!

• What phone do you have? Do you like it?
• If someone asked you what phone to buy, what would you tell them?

Input will be used for this article on Daily.net:

Android Forums is transitioning to The Daily Net!

It's primarily a name change- all of the site's conversations will be preserved on the new domain. However, we'll need to move the community to a subdomain or directory (ex: daily.net/forum or forum.daily.net).

State your case for your favorite! Feel free to suggest your own ideas.

My personal favorite right now (it keeps changing):

The main site would be housed at The Daily Net - Breaking News but then you can join "the" club at https://the.daily.net where all the forum content is found. So, for example, the URL to this thread would become:

I have an app which claims to store data in the folder "/data/user/0/edu.berkeley.boinc/client"

However Android 11 is being difficult and this path looks different everywhere I look, and I cannot get to the files in it. I tried:

1) USB cable to Windows 11 PC. I thought this showed the whole disk without restrictions. But I see (with the phone set to "USB for file transfer"):
Card, Phone (those are the two drives, card is the SD card, not applicable here). I remember naming these myself some time ago.
In "phone" I have no data folder, but I can go into "Android", which then contains "data". Inside "data", there is no "user", but I do find "edu.berkeley.boinc". This however only contains "files" which is empty. So to summarise I looked for "/data/user/0/edu.berkeley.boinc/client" and found only "Android/data/edu.berkeley.boinc/files".

2) The app "Total Commander" which I read elsewhere shows all files without having to root the phone. On this, I see two "drives" listed at the top with a symbol which looks like an SD card. One is called DICAM-400, which I know to be the SD card, that label is made by the camera I took it from. The other is however called "Internal shared storage". So I think it's not getting to see everything. There is also further down the list a folder icon called "file system root" which I thought would be the real root of the drive. I find: "Internal shared storage/Android/data" but find nothing in there except file commander. I also find "file system root/data/data" but find nothing in there except file commander.

Can someone please untangle this mess and stop me going insane? I just want to see what's on the disk and delete some unnecessary things as it's very full.

I could also move apps to the SD card, but the two biggest ones are Boinc and Google Maps, and both do not have the button to move storage to the SD card, presumably they aren't compatible with doing so?

I ue the Verizon voicemail app to listen to voicemails. Lately when I have a voicemail, it always plays on speaker phone. I click on the speaker icon to shut it off but it stays on the speakerphone for everyone to hear. Anyone else have this problem?

Dear team,

I want to know why my Siccura work application is showing as a harmful app in Play Protect. How can I verify it as safe software while running Play Protect in the Play Store? For more information, I am attaching the error image on Android version 13.

Hi I have a problem with my audio output on my Android tablet. This is my setup from my tablet:

Tablet - USB C adaptor - USB audio adapter - headphones (out) piano (in)

I can hear streaming audio but can't hear the piano even though the piano is being registered by Yousician.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have recently purchased an Amazon Fire TV stick and am trying to add the Tub TV app to my installed apps. I go the the App store, search and find the Tubi TV App click on it to download and just get a message that the App I am searching for cannot be found.

I am in the UK using a VPN and I don't know if this may be causing some issue but there are now other clues.

There seem to be no other people experiencing this issue anywhere world wide that I can find using Google global searches.

I can use the web browser on the TV stick and log in from there but it is a bit clunky.

Any ideas or hints provided would be greatly appreciated.

I have recently replaced my tablet. The new one is operating on Android 13. I tried to cast to the family room Roku tv. I tapped cast, it found the tv, I tapped on it, it connected, showed the "allow" screen on the tv, clicked allow and it cast. This is just how my old tablet worked. I disconnected like normal. A while later I tried again. It will not cast anymore. It does not find the tv unless I tap the setting icon on the cast window. This opens the full setting screen. After a couple seconds it locates the tv. I tap on the tv and it shows it is connecting. After 5 or 6 seconds, the tv disappears from the screen for a few seconds then reappears as available. It will not connect. I tried the upstairs tv and had the exact same result. It worked one time. All units are on the same wifi. I have restarted, unplugged, reset everything with no luck. I have searched the internet with no luck. I would appreciate any help you can give!

interesting.....downloading it now on my laptop.

For those not familiar with TBT (The Basketball Tournament) I grabbed this from the net:
The Basketball Tournament is an open-application, single-elimination tournament played each summer in the United States. The 2022 edition featured 64 teams with a $1 million winner-take-all prize, broadcast by ESPN. TBT was founded in 2014 by Jonathan Mugar. Wikipedia

The teams are mostly comprised of past college basketball players and their team names are usually spin offs of the college where they played. My local U's basketball team is called the Shockers. The team playing in the TBT is called the Aftershocks. They won their corner of the bracket today which puts them in the elite eight round. It is the round they have made in the past but have always lost that game. It's pretty much backstreet basketball but it is fun to watch past players on the court again. Their next game will only be aired on espn+ I believe. It's somewhere that I'm not willing to pay to watch.

In the advanced settings of an AVD (Android Virtual Device) configuration there is a checkbox "Enable keyboard input" which - when checked - allows to use your computer's input to input text into the emulated application (instead or additionally to the emulated device's onscreen keyboard).
This setting is very handy when developing and debugging an application, but for some odd reason the Emulator keeps unchecking this checkbox from time to time. Does anyone have an idea why or when this is happening?
I always only notice this when - after firing up the application under test - I again can't enter text using my laptop's keyboard. :-(

The list of additional icons, revealed by the Edit button, includes the Ultra power saver but I would like to use the Power Saver.

Is there a way to do this ?

I'm looking for a specific game that was like Puzzles and Dragons with the match-three orbs combat system. This game I believe was also an idle and you have this "date" system where you can wait pick a random rank of girls and after a certain amount of time (or sooner if you give gifts), you can obtain them afterwards. One of the most known characters in the game was this gothic girl named Victoria or something, she wears all black and sits with one leg over the other. There also these dungeons called "lessons" where you fight a boss to gain skillbooks to be able to level up abilities.

Is anyone else having this issue? My husband and I both have the $25/mo. unlimited data plan through Boost Mobile. Last month I went onto the Boost App to do the daily login bonus, and I saw it said my next bill was going to be $35. I tried looking for a while and finally after logging onto the website on my computer i discovered in the detailed billing area that it said I was being charged the $25 plan as well as $10 for a recurring data pack. I never added a pack to my plan, and if I go to the section to see the data packs it even tells me I have no active packs. I contacted support and they told me it was showing it was going to remove on my due date and I wouldn't be charged for it and to disregard it. Well, I got charged. I contacted them again on the day i got charged, 7 days ago now, and they said they put in a ticket for a refund for the extra charge (that I've heard nothing about since) and said that it is "in the process of removing" and it would remove NEXT billing date and I wouldn't be charged. Obviously I am skeptical of this since that's pretty much what they told me last time. Now it turns out they did the same thing to my husband. It's supposed to be $25 but he was charged $35. We haven't had a chance to talk to support about his account yet about it but plan on doing so when off work. Originally i thought this was an issue my account was having, but my husbands account is not linked to mine and its happening to him to. so I'm curious if this is a known issue or if anyone else is dealing with this? It's extremely frustrating that not only we are being charged for something we didn't want, and aren't even using, but we're having to deal with support so often for this issue.
