I want to downgrade my IQOO Z3 5G from Android 13 to Android 12 but I am unable to do so because when I went to the official website to download the zip file, all it does is made me download an HTML file that leads to nowhere, is this only happening to me? The file I wanted to download is PD2159F_EX_A_3.13.3. Someone please help.

Update: Thanks it worked : )

I have a Motorola G play. I have downloaded the Echolink from Google play store, and have used it without problems for 2 years.
Yesterday It will not work, it says that I have an incorrect password. I went to the Echolink page and reset the password.
I then uninstalled the app and reinstalled. however all instructions say tap settings and put in name and password. There is no place for password.
And when I reinstall the app the same info is on the app...help

This is cool and scary at the same time.

Hi. The touch screen on my co-worker's S22 Ultra is very erratic. She has begun having problems with scrolling and touch response. I read somewhere about doing a forced reboot by pressing volume down and power buttons simultaneously. I don't want to recommend that unless I'm confident no harm can come of that. Has anyone ever tried that method?

You may have seen that big changes are coming:

Some big updates as we experiment with the path forward:

• We've installed "Tag Essentials" which we hope can be used to replace our former "Channels" functionality, allowing us to create virtual "forums" around specific phones, devices, and other topics.
• We've re-installed Media Gallery and Resource Manager. These were used sparingly in previous iterations of AF and we may be starting from scratch here. We'll see.

If you spot these new features and have suggestions/opinions, please speak up! We've got lots of testing to do and will try to make things perfect with your help.

I press the microphone button on the remote control and nothing happens. I can't find a specific thing in settings to turn it back on, or turn it on/off at all. Edit: I have just now noticed that every other button on the remote when pressed causes the light on the bottom of the TV to flash, but the microphone one does not. Has to be a hardware thing I think. Thanks all for replies

How do I stop yahoo ringtones from showing up permanently on my note 20 ultra?

Along with my pre-order for the Fold5, I threw in the official Samsung Fold5 stand and strap case to start me off. No doubt I will be looking to get other cases as the range increases.



MobileFun are offering some different cases, here...

This is getting extremely frustrating. I have a 2022 Kia Stinger. Ok google works fine when i get in the car and am connected to bluetooth and/or android auto. When I get out of the car and get on my mobile data or another wifi network, "ok google" has no response. Doesn't even trigger the assistant... I have to force close the app and then it works immediately... How do I fix this?

edit: phone is a Z Fold 4

please help me lmk what icon this is its a square and top right is blue and the bottom left is red..

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


More info, here... Galaxy Z Fold 5 | Camera, Specs & Screen | Samsung UK

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:
