Android cant boot after root

open
Hello everyone
I need a help with my LG-Leon 4g lte

My proximity sensor wasnt working so i decided to root the phone and turn it off. But as i was trying to root it using cmd and some files, something went wrong.After a write some commands to cmd the Phone turned off and i was unable to do the factory reset to wipe it or to revive it with any try. In the PC it shows that it is connected to the PC but its unable to install correct drivers cuz i cant choose it from my Phone.


IS it possible that i deleted whole boot files??

I was trying to flash it but it cant recognize it as a phone only as a weird modem.

Pls IF you can help me.

I ve put 50€ to this Phone and now its not working anymore.

Android 10 no alarm sound

Hello,

I have a Pixel 4, Android 10, kernel ver 4.14.111, build number QQ1B.200205.002.

The alarm sound is not working at all. I have tried adjusting alarm volume and other volume sliders with no effect. While in the alarm application, if I try to preview the alarm sound, no sound comes from the speakers. I have tried adjusting the volume while the preview is playing but no change. I have tried deleting the alarms and re-adding them. I have installed other alarm app from play store and these applications do produce sound when the alarm triggers. I appreciate any advice.

creating custom layout overlaps in android

I wanted to create a Navigation bar like drawer that held some custom resources and custom widgets which would allow me to put them using constraint layout but this is not provided by android.

How do people create their custom libraries to do that? For example consider this navigation bar (check time code 1:15), it consists of a custom transformation for it's layout, manages layout overlaps and stuff like that. He gives a source for that here.

Please give me a pointer how is this acheived or what knowledge is required to be able to do this. I'm willing to do my bit of research but I don't know where to start or what is used in achieving this. Is it done using OpenGL ES? Canvas drawings? ANY HELP AT ALL would be greatly appreciated.

How do i share an existing folder on Google Drive/Dropbox with my phone?

Hello,

I use an app called Easy Voice Recorder to record my song ideas on my android phone. I want this folder to be shared on the cloud, so I can open them seamlessly on my desktop at home.

I've tried installing both Google Drive, Dropbox and PCloud, but non of them seem to want to share an local folder that's already on my phone. They just use cloud folders ore something. Those, I can't direct the wav file storage to.

How can I share a path like: Xperia L1\Delt internlagring\EasyVoiceRecorder via dropbox, or make a folder I can direct my sound record app storage to?

I really hope I don't have to copy the indivitual files from the EasyVoice folder to one of the cloud folders in order for this to work. In that case, this is not time saving at all.

Hope to hear from someone.

Travelling

Hi

Here is something that has been bugging me for a while. Would be really grateful if someone can throw some light on this for me.

I own both a Huawei P20 Lite phone and a Huawei MediaPad M5 tablet. I travel a lot and understand that the phone adjusts its timezone from the time info it gets from the cellular network it is connected to. The tablet does not connect to any cellular network so cannot adjust its timezone. My guess is that it uses the internet to adjust its date and time if the setting is on automatic. Would be so simple to use the IP or lat/long to estimate the timezone and I just can't understand why this is not built into Android! Are they any apps that can do this?

I build a Tasker task for getting the timezone from lat/long but I cannot set the device timezone as the "Set Timezone" action appears red and cannot be selected. I guess I need to root my tablet for this to work. Do I need to reflash my device for to root it? Will I then have to reinstall everything?

Screen Freezes After Video Ad

Gave this game a try and it was simple but fun. Unfortunately every time you die you've got to watch a 30-second video to continue, and afterwards, I get stuck on a weird blue screen with a score counting upwards infinitely (but slowly). The only way to continue is to force close the app and re-open, thus losing your score.

How do I Switch a CDMA/GSM S5 Verizon to AT&T

I just purchased a brand new G900V CDMA/GSM Unlocked Samsung Galaxy S5 to replace my current Samsung G900A S5 that freezes and has slowed down.

This is my 3rd S5. The first had a bad mic connection and even though I had a receipt from an AT&T store, Samsung would not honor it, and the second now is having problems after a year. I LIKE the S5, and I am hoping that the "third time is the charm." My wife's S5 has been flawless for 4 years!

The seller (ebay) said it was 4G Compatible on Verizon/Sprint/AT&T/T-Mobile on both CDMA and GSM.

I popped my AT&T Sim into it, and when it boots it has a Verizon screen of course, the says it is NOT a Verizon Sim, but then it finds the network and my WiFi, but the Text Message App appears to be a Verizon dedicated one that would have to be changed.

I dialed some telephone numbers and it seems to work fine, but...

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to make the phone act like an AT&T phone?

I did a little digging and supposedly it is 4G LTE compatible on AT&T, but I am an absolute neophyte and know nothing about these phones as far as re-configuring anything.

So ANY help, or a link that would help someone as clueless as me set it up would be much appreciated.

I ASSUME the seller was right about it being compatible. They had a bazillion sales and a 99,5% Feedback rating.

Thanks,
Bob

Help Battery drops from 40% to 0%

Hello ! I'm new here and I have the following issue on my LG K10. As you can see in the attached images, my battery drops from about 40% to 0% in seconds.
What I did:
- I checked for battery-draining apps, which I have none.
- I bought a new battery (last one was dropping at about 50%, so no big change)
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance

Listening to notifications from phone or messaging app

I am developing a custom launcher, and to display the badges on the app icons, I am using NotificationListenerService to know when a new notification arrives in the system for any app. It is working fine, but for the essential apps such as phone, messages, whatsapp etc, I am not able to capture any notification when somebody leaves a message or calls.

I wonder if these essential apps send notifications via a different channel other than NotificationListenerService, or is there some some key property I need to set in the listener so that I can listen to the event in these cases?

Any help will be appreciated.

Data usage

I'm not too terribly tech savvie, so forgive me if this is a simple matter. I'm currently with MetroPCS on an unlimited data plan; however being on full and permanent disability, I need to save as much money as possible. Toward that end, I am considering switching to a company that offers a discount for AARP members but their top plan only offers 25GB of data per month. How do I determine my average monthly data usage on my LG K30 so I can make a more informed choice? Also, does anyone have any suggestions for a carrier with good customer service and call quality that offers two-lines with (genuinely) unlimited talk, text and data at a low price. I know that "low price" is subjective, depending on one's income.

Donate or die

I just deleted this app after more than a year of intense playing. The reasons are:
  • The game is absorbing and you feel like a drug addict
  • Bloody time-consuming (all events are on weekends and my family didn't see me)
  • It is a well-known fact that the packages for Chinese players are cheaper than for everyone else
  • An example: a new kingdom, everyone has around 10th lvl castle. And here comes Chinese player with 25th lvl castle already. And this situation repeated in 4 kingdoms where I started new games
And Guns of Glory, btw, is another app of that dev company. And the problems are the same.

Hi guys, i'm planning to buy a phone and i'm on a budget.
Can you guys give me thoughts on the Realme 5i and ASUS Zenfone 5Q? Which one should I buy?

Frankly, the Zenfone is really appealing to me and the brand for me is more credible. At the same time, I'm hesitating because of the small battery capacity & "outdated" OS of the Zenfone. I'm not sure if there's a big difference though. I really need help so that I won't make a bad purchase. Any insight is appreciated.

Also, feel free to recommend other phones on the same price level. Thank you very much.
