Didn't find a way to read PDFs comfortably on the phone, e.g. Xiaomi Poco M4 Pro 4G. I have to manually move the PDF sideways and up all the time (instead of touching an icon or so and automatically skipping it to the next information / part). Or, in order not to have to do that, the font would be so small that it would not be legible for me.

What program could be recommend for this?

What's the difference between Empty Views Activity and Basic Views Activity?

In fact, where can I get a comprehensive description of all the various activity templates that are provided when starting a new project?

I have an s21 plus and the issue I'm having is that when I get sent pictures, it comes up as automatically expired.. like it expires the minute it's sent and when I click it, it says somethings wrong. Here's the catch though, for some reason it doesn't work when my sister, (Galaxy, verizon, diff plan) sends me pictures or my husband (Galaxy, Verizon, diff plan). However, my mother, who has an apple, with Verizon and shares the same plan with my sister--- her pictures send. Could someone help me with this? Samsung just told me to get a new phone. Thanks

I'm retired from my 45-year software engineering career but am interested in getting into smartphone app development using Android Studio. But, frankly, the UI of Android Studio for designing the UI elements of an app are just baffling.

Can someone recommend a (YouTube??) video (or a few) that explains at least the basics of adding UI elements, positioning them, sizing them, doing whatever you're supposed to do with those squiggly lines?

I'd really appreciate it.

[ And, seriously, you can't just insert an image (from your computer) into a post like this, you have to link to some image somewhere on the Web? ]

Now the wait begins! I noticed there aren't a lot of cases available, undoubtedly because the phone has not been released yet. However, there are lots of cases available for the EU version of the phone, RAZR 40 Ultra, which is the same phone. I found a nice one on Amazon, that arrives the day after the phone does.

Hello. I have a small but annoying issue when listening to Audible through my phone (S20 FE) on Bluetooth in the car. What was happening was that when I turn the car engine off the Audible transmission automatically stopped/paused too. Recently this isn't happening. When I turn the car ignition off, the adio book carries on playing in my pocket. Any idea what has changed and how I can rectify it?

I make little TCL scripts for personal use, often with a TK/GUI. Does anyone know if there's a toolbox or other to make these run on a telephone? Thought I'd start here, you guys are geeks after all

When the device is connected to USB, it still shows usbCharge = false, while at that time acCharge is shown as true.
Moreover, while assigning the value of chargePlug here, it is either assigning 0 or 1, no other value. Why is it so?

HI All,
Hi,
Sometimes ago one of my family member used a small phone (Huawei Y336) got an issue which is stuck at Huawei Logo. It wasn't used last couple of years. Recently I found that and though to do a software update. Downloaded stock ROM and flashed through SD card method. It completed the process but the issue is still remains.
Can somebody help me to overcome this please?

Google assistant is only supposed to respond to my voice, correct? Do background noises have an affect? It often does a poor job of interpreting what I say. For instance, something if I say 'take a reminder", it opens my camera. Or, at orher times, not matter how many repetitions I attempt to create a particular reminder, and how slowly and clearly I try to say it, it wrongly repeats it back to me, with the same wrong phrase.

Another is when it doesn't refer to my contacts for requested phone calls.

I've retrained the voice numerous times

I'd really like to find a replacement for it.

Apple asked me to destroy a working iPad. Here's the e-mail I sent them:

Subject: I'm Offended that Apple Asked me to Recycle my Working (Not Broken) iPad

Body: I have an iPad, I inherited it from my father (he's now using a more modern iPad). I considered buying a newer iPad, so I checked the trade-in value of my current iPad at the Apple website. My iPad has no trade-in value, but Apple asked me to send it in for recycling.

No trade-in value, that I'm okay with (my iPad is almost a decade old). But there are so many better uses for an old iPad than recycling! Apple made a good product, one that's served my father well for a long time. To treat such a fine product with such disrespect, to suggest destroying my iPad rather than reusing it, and to say that destroying a working iPad is "good for the Earth": That is insulting! It insults my intelligence, it insults my iPad, and it insults the forks at Apple who made my iPad in the first place.

Apple sent no reply. This is the same iPad I described in the "Who here uses Apple Devices?" thread.

Can anyone tell me, what does the symbol that looks like a serpentine refer to, located on the Xiaomi Redmi note 9 pro, at the top of the screen?
I tried doing a search but can't find it.

Hi! I am using Android studio with Jetpack compose and I want to make my Card element clickable when you click or tap there is an action but from all information I see that I have to use .clickable from modifier and I don't have such a thing even with the right imports it doesn't recognize it. So how do I do it?

When I open Google Messages on my Pixel 7 and text a favorite in the list, it asks to 'Select Destination' and lists the same number twice. On the screenshot for instance, this contact is only in my phone once. I cleared the Cache for Google Message but that didn't solve anything.

So I have been looking at the Google Pixle vs. Moto Edge the 2022 and the newest flagship that swung on by..
Boils down to "So what is the most easiest one, and quicker cell phone per FPS?"

I am exploring Google Message app and am trying to figure out how to make texts separate. Searching on line revealed no answer, but I may be searching wrong. I apologize, but don't know the proper term for it, so I'll describe it. (Best guess = Conversation?)

When there is an existing text message on my phone from, for example, Sue at (313) 555-1213 and I want to send Sue another message t0 (313) 555-12112, but not with the first message attached.

Conversely, if there is a message from Sue already on the phone and days, weeks or months later, she sends me another, it gets attached to the existing message int he inbox.

Is there some way to turn this behavior off and let each message be its own entity?
Also, what it the proper term to describe this?

Thanks For Teaching,
Paul

Hi,

I am on latest Android (Samsung smartphone) and I like to use multi window a lot, and it works great. I can have an app running at the top and another app at the bottom. There is a small horizontal line between the 2 apps that I can drag to increase and decrease the window size (if I make the height of the app at the top bigger then the app at the bottom gets smaller automatically). Sometimes I want the app at the bottom to have a very small height but unfortunatelly if I drag the splitter to a small height dimension, android will cancel the multi window.

The multi window with the splitter is awesome, but that's a really terrible decision to not allow an app to have a very small height and the other a very big height. And the problem is not with the app, because I am the developer of both apps and even setting minHeight to 1dp, Android never allows the apps to have a height smaller than 20-30% of the screen height. Why? Is there a way to fix it, something like in the Developer options?

Hi all

I am new to the forums platform so I just wanted to say hello and also give props to Techmatte and amFilm and their One Touch Tempered Glass Screen Protector for the Samsung S23+. It really was as easy as they said to place the protector on the phone. I didn't get any bubbles and it doesn't seem to have any touch issues.

A cool bonus was the protector for the 3 lens camera in the back.

I would definitely recommend and will be buying from them again for other devices.

Hi Folks,
I recently replaced my old Samsung S5 with a new S22. This didn't come with Samsung's own email client and I didn't want to use Gmail so I installed K-9 Mail. This is mostly working ok, using IMAP with the same settings as the S5, but for some reason it won't save copies of sent mail in the Sent folder. All I've got are the messages that were transferred over by Samsung Smart Switch. I've looked in my Webmail Sent folder and that's the same.

The box is checked in settings for sent mail to be uploaded to the Sent folder (see screenshot) but it just isn't doing it. I even tried unchecking the box, shutting down and rebooting the phone then re-checking it but to no avail. Has anyone come across this problem or have any ideas how to solve it?

The phone is running Android 13 if that's relevant.

My boyfriend accidently set the default text message notification setting to the Zedge on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra and now the box that would come up that asks you if you want to use Zedge or the android system as your default notification system does not come up anymore. My question is how do you reset that to go back to showing the box again so you can choose from Zedge or the android system?

I have a pair of Bluetooth headphones. Every time I connect them and I start playing like a YouTube video or a song nothing comes out because the audio is not enabled in Android and I manually go into the Bluetooth settings and check this audio box. I've tried to unpairing and repairing it, but android never keeps audio enabled, every single time I have to manually do it is there a way to force android to have it stay enabled?

I have s22.
