Bally Sports Reveals Its Streaming Service Has Surprisingly Few Subscribers Nine Months After Launch Bally Sports Reveals Its Streaming Service Has Surprisingly Few Subscribers Nine Months After Launch | Cord Cutters News
I for one, hope Bally, Sinclair, Disney, all lose their ass on this. Greed will be the end for them.
Also these player salaries are insane and the owners are dumb enough to keep shelling it out.
Gut the MLB, NBA, NHL and NFL and start fresh, in my opinion!

Hi
When I try to search for something in the Google Docs app on Android (like something I wrote in one of the docs), it only shows results from some of the documents. There is alot of missing search results (especially for older documents).
This is while connected to the internet. When I'm not connected to the internet, the search results only shows results that are in the title of the document.

Does anyone else have this issue? Why is it happening? And how to fix it?

Thanks

Samsung have started to roll out the June update for the S21 series.

I know it’s a long shot but any ideas of this app notification icon? It is orange and red with a sideways heart in the middle. Erased irrelevant ones. S10

I am not a phone enthusiast. Just a guy who wants a decent phone. I have a Galaxy S8, and the battery life is not what it once was. It also seems a little slow these days.

I am thinking of getting a Galaxy S22 or S23. Are there any glaring problems with these phones? I don't trust review websites because they seem to rave about everything. I want at least as much battery life as I had back when I bought my old phone in 2017, and I don't want to get bitten in the butt by known issues people only find out about after buying.

Also, should I insist on a new phone? I am concerned that I might end up with something with a worn-out battery or other issues.

Hi all,

This has happened to me before on other and older Android phones.

Every once in a while, I get this random sound alert that I can't identify and it just happens at random times, random intervals, and typically just goes bezerk (sp?) when it does it.

Any ideas?

Thank you in advance guys, I really appreciate it!

While viewing a video on YouTube on Chrome on my Android phone, the screen turns green.

I uninstalled Chrome and re-installed it and the issue was resolved initially... only for the issue to recur a little later while viewing YouTube videos on Chrome on my phone.

I uninstalled Chrome once again and reinstalled it but this time the issue was not resolved.

This issue occurs while viewing YouTube on Chrome only.. YouTube works fine while viewing on the app and on Internet explorer but I am so used to viewing YouTube videos on Chrome on my phone.

Could someone please help me out with this?

Hello, I would like to know what apps these notifications are from. Not sure the device but any help is greatly appreciated!

Hi everyone. I am still trying to build a database app with a RecyclerView. I have followed a tutorial from here:
The app runs, creates the database, and saves records. Note that the name is the primary key so you cannot save duplicate names. My problem with this is the same as the first app I tried to build. That is, when I try to view the data, it only shows the first record. The format of the display is OK but only the first record is shown. I can't seem to figure out what triggers a new row in the RecyclerView. I have attached a text file containing all the code for the various parts of this demo. I could surely use some help in figuring out what's missing.

Thanks

As my parents are moving to a new home they discovered an older Dell Inspiron "5000 series" lying around. They gave it to me. Not in too bad of shape, and I'm currently wiping it as we speak, and know for sure the battery is doing the '1-3-5 error' code (charging cycles exceeded) but I don't care about the battery anyway. It's more 'modern' than I'm into, although it has the glossy back and not the boring matte plastic back. Not sure of the specs. It runs Windows 10, and I'm resetting it, but wondering if I should just blow it away and put Windows 7 Pro on it like the rest or have it be the one PC in my home collection with an unmodified, unthemed Windows 10 layout. I'm personally not fond of Windows 10 (and to an extent, Windows 11, although it looks nicer to an extent) or its flat design UI, or how it acts like a polite friend ("All your files are exactly where you left them!") but the effort to theme it to look like Vista/7, or the amount of hell that's involved to get drivers to work from Dell's website (the last one was a 2010 Vostro that for some reason the website listed the wrong wifi driver and video driver...took days to sort out). I might just leave this one alone and keep it as another backup. It's in decent shape.

Anyone know of a skeuomorphic Linux distro? I want to avoid the amount of mess that theming Linux entails (tried that one and only needed that headache once!) but hoping there's one distro out there that at least looks like it's from 2010/2011.

In the last few days my Verizon signal has disappeared while at home. No problem because its always been too weak to make a call so all activity is via WiFi via StartLink. But with the Verizon signal disappearing, now texts time out. Browser and phone calls still work but a text shows "Waiting for Connection". I've made no setup changes. Any ideas?

Anyone that can help get this to actually run on the AVD I would be very appreciative...

EASILY answering a call should be the first priority of a cell phone. With Samsung it clearly is not. A family member has a Samsung Orbit and regularly misses calls because she can't get the "hold & swipe properly" exactly right fast enough. I have a Samsung J2 as a travel phone and often have the same problem.

I found on Youtube a way to change my J2 to answer with just a "press" using Accessability -> Interaction-Dexterity -> Assistant Menu. But that leaves the Assistant Menu "button" visible and in the way. On the J2 there is still an option to cover and hide it. But that is no longer available on the Orbit so the Assistant menu button is annoyingly always there overlaying something on the screen.

I need to replace my primary cell phone (LG) - it seems that Samsung is about the only reliable Android replacement with somewhat decent support. But I don't want that annoying Assistant Menu button constantly overlaying something. Anyone found a way around this with a current Samsung?

I have a Huawei Mediapad tablet M5 lite 10. I left it to charge through the night (it wasn't powered off, was just closed) and the next day when I opened it and went to gallery my downloads were in the process of being deleted! They were turning into blank images and going to the recently deleted folder, and the weirdest thing was, they were also being permenantly deleted? I'm dumbstruck because they deleted ALL of my downloads (I had 834) except a few downloads left over, maybe 6 pictures. People suggested turning auto-delete and automatic storage cleaner option off, but I can't find those options anywhere on my device. I also did not clear my storage recently. I did not back up my photos anywhere. Why did this happen and how can I prevent this from happening again? Can I get back my photos? Help!


Edit: I have just realised that my downloaded documents and audios are gone too! It seems that all of the files I downloaded from the web are permenantly deleted, why did this happen???

Please ignore this post. The problem seems to have gone away.
but I can’t find a way to delete it.

Noobie here. I installed Android Studio flamingo and followed a couple of tutorials on youtube. My latest effort involves experimenting with the Recyclerview. I have tried running it on a couple of different virtual devices and it runs OK until I try to launch the activity that has the Recyclerview. Then I get this error:

Failed to measure fs-verity, errno 1: /data/app/~~pmpCKyqulePUBHTy7ke96g==/com.example.recyclerdemo-480zG4iexej-Wk4snRDEjQ==/base.apk

So far I have not been able to find enough info about APK files to even know where to look.

Can someone help please? Much appreciated.

What DVD player should I get that supports USB C, Blu-ray, and M-disk for my SM-X800?

I have heard about battery in smartphones exploded, but I did not study the details.
Now, I am going to replace my battery, but since the model is a bit old, there is no way to replace it with the original battery, so chances are I am probably getting a generic battery or even a counterfeit one from a shop that fixes smartphone,

Is there any sign before a battery explode, or could it happen without any sign? Then it would be so dangerous!

That's exactly what it is. A sound very similar to a Star Trek Red Alert from the original series. this phone randomly makes this 'whoop whoop' alert sound once, and nothing is on the screen. last time it was when it was charging, today it just did it in my pocket. Nothing is listed in recent notifications and there is no such sound in the list of 'notification sounds'. I can't think of any app that makes this particular sound and I'm quite involved in what I allow to make noise on a smartphone (only calls, texts and emails, everything else is set to either block notifications (I hate status bar clutter) or silent/minimized.)) There should only be three items that make sound and with sounds I select (thanks to whomever told me a month or so back to move any downloaded sounds into the 'notifications' folder). None involve any red alert sound. I got emergency SOS and Wireless Emergency Alerts all turned off. It's not a disconnected from watch sound as my watch remained connected.

Is anyone familiar with this particular anomaly with Samsung's modern phones? Also, it's not a low battery sound as the phone is still 90% charged.

I tried to activate shizuku without pc using a website and bugjaeger and it gave a notification "permission denied". Can anyone help me regarding this.

Android phone using "clock" app. How do I sort alarms I have set by date and then time within date?

Hi folks,

New here so forgive me if this isn't in the right area of the forum. I'm all Samssung in terms of Android and recently was gifted a Tab s8+ - great device, but I'm told I can get more out of it? I hear about this Eco system and have watched some videos on YouTube but it still baffles me so coming to the experts here!

Can I use my Note 20 Ultra as a second device/screen i.e. drag files across like I would when I use the tab as a secondary extended or just secondary screen with my laptop?
I tried Samsung Flow and both devices are on the same WiFi but the smart view option allowing me to use my phone on my tab only work when I switch the WiFi from on my tablet to the phones hotspot. Why is this? is this normal?
Samsung's Dex - what is the benefit of using the tab in this mode as opposed to how it is in regular mode?
I have some Galaxy buds Live, should they be able to connect via blue tooth to both phone and tablet?
I'm also looking at potentially purchasing a smart watch (samsung model) and I hear there is a new model. Has anyone tried it? is it worth the money? I don't want to overspend for the sake of it.

Any other tips and tricks you can share are much appreciated

I thought it might be fun to have a separate thread to capture and share all of the great memes and pics that get the OCD juices flowing (and which otherwise get scattered and lost in other threads).

Here’s a prime example…

So I downloaded an apk(1.09gb )and installed the game(7.35gb), when I go to view the files I am only able to view the base apk files (the files under 1.09gb) and I can't see the rest of the game files, is there any way to view the other 6.26gb worth of game files?
