Scheduling Tasks

I have Android 8 system on the DEXP AL140 smartphone and need to know how to configure the device to do the following automatically:

1) Start up and shut down at specified times.

2) Run and close specified programs at certain times.

Is it also possible to configure the device to perform certain actions within the programs automatically? Do I need some Android application which can do all of the above?

[FREE][APP] Tag your photos , save time

Hi, everyone. I created this app aims to make our lives easier. We may have a bunch of photos that contains important information such as timetable, restaurant info, notes, etc. They all stay at album and we waste much time to find them when we need. So by adding tags on the photos just like on instagram or twitter, you can easily find them! It will save you much time. Thank you for you guys' support and welcome to any comments.

How to find info about an installed widget?

I have a clock widget installed some time ago on my cell, got an tablet now and would like to install the same widget on the table, but can't find it on Play Store, how can I find which widget I've installed on my cell? Tried to search by browsing the icon, but nothing matches, went to settings > apps > opened the widget, but there's no additional info about the developer, how can I find out who is the developer so I can narrow down the search or even better, if I can find where's the widget file so I can copy it to my tablet. TIA

Auto Lock

I have a Samsung Galaxy S7, Android Version 8.0.0. Everything, including apps, are up to date. Is there any way to get the phone, after ending a call, to not automatically go to the lock screen?

Other than being irritating to unlock my phone after every call, I have a specific reason for asking. I use my phone to play my music in Google Play Music while driving via aux. After a call, my phone auto locks instead of returning to the opened Google Play Music app in order to continue using the buttons, (pause, ffd, rwd, etc). Unlocking the phone everytime can be distracting and dangerous.

I have noticed that if the phone call is short, it doesn't return (sometimes) to the lock screen. Not sure if it's outgoing or incoming. There has to be a way to disable or override this function without using another app, removing lock feature or jailbreaking the phone.

Would you look at this? [storage issue]

sooo... I was wondering why my phone storage kept running low

the "sdcard" is its own internal, with apps storage and DCIM and such.

The root however, I don't know how it got like that. At most I installed an emulator but did not use it and uninstalled it. Should I root my device? I kinda need those 10 gigs. Files count goes well over 20k.

Also, do you have any suggestions on how to root it? I don't trust Koingo, nor Kingo one-clicks.

Root Kyocera Hydro Reach Has Been Rooted But Still Need Some Help

Hello there I have decided to root my Boost Mobile Kyocera Hydro Reach Prepaid Cellphone so I can use it more like a tablet and less like a phone. I currently am using a prepaid cellphone from US Cellular.

So I don't need a second phone plus I have not had service on this phone in over 2 years so I decided to give it a fresh install and once I did I still keep getting these annoying updates for things on the phone I will never use again like voicemail or even messaging though the phone number since I will have facebook messenger. And since there is no longer going to ever be service on this phone again why have all the extra crap I figured.

So here is the help I need I used a app to root the phone with the help of my windows 10 laptop. And then I removed the bloatware and now I was wondering if I can remove the rooting app as well as all the extra stuff I needed to use to root the phone since I will never be using this phone for things other then apps and game can get straight from google play store.

I know it might be a odd question but just wondering if I needed to keep it all on there or if I could remove it.

Why is my phone laughing at me?

The weirdest thing just happened. I heard, for no apparent reason, the faint sound of hysterical laughter from my phone that went on for about 30 seconds. I have been dealing with a stalker for the past six years and think may have been hacked, though I have also read this sort of thing sometimes happens on android for innocuous reasons. Any ideas? TIA.

Screen overlay

How to get this feature to work? I keep going in circles trying to get this feature to work. I can't even place a screen shot of the box that comes up. It tells me to turn off screen overlay in the settings. Wen I go to settings, it shows its already off. But all the boxes are 'shadowed' so as not to be able to toggle any of them.

Help Yahoo Mail Notifications Not Working

Hello!! Just got a new Huawei P30 Pro and am not getting alerts on my Yahoo Mail app when I receive a Yahoo email. I have been to a lot of forums and have tried everything. My phone (Android 9/EMUI 9.1.0) is in Performance Mode and not in Power/Ultra Power Saving Mode. In 'Battery Optimization', Yahoo Mail is set to 'Not Allowed'. All notifications are ON in both the Android apps settings for Yahoo Mail and inside the Yahoo Mail app itself. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I have restarted the phone itself many times. I have force stopped the app and cleared cache inside the app. Whean I started setting up the phone, I did not restore from a previous device. It was a fresh, clean 'install'. Both Android and EMUI are up to date. All apps from Google Play are up to date. I don't know what else to do. Anyone have any ideas? Thank you.

Android SDK ROOT

Hello everyone,

When I start an emulator with Android Studio, I got the error saying that "ANDROID SDK ROOT variable isn't set".

After some days looking on how to solve this error, I still got it.

Here's what I tried:
  • Uninstall & reinstall Android Studio
  • Create the environment variables ANDROID_SDK_ROOT and ANDROID_SDK_HOME and set it to the SDK directory
  • Checking the SDK Tool to get the right location
  • Checking the tools installed (SDK Tools, SDK Platform Tools, Emulator)
  • Put the SDK directory to the root of C:
  • Updating the PATH environment variable, and adding "platform-tools" and "platforms" folder address to it
It looks like I've tested everyhting, but nothing works.
I have done nothing special to get this error, it "spawned" from nowhere.

The next step is installing Android Studio on a virtual machine and check if it works.

If anyone got any solution, that would be great.

Thanks

How to get Bixby to recognize loss of Bluetooth connection

I have a Bixby routine that turns on the Android Auto app whenever my phone hooks up to my car's Bluetooth. That works great.

But I want Bixby to turn off Android Auto when the connection is broken (i.e. when I get out of the car).

I can't find a way to use loss-of-Bluetooth-connection as an "If", nor can I see how to get Bixby to exit the Android Auto app.

Help?
