Help Locked out of my phone due to the Gboard / How can I sideload Gboard apk on the Recovery Mode?

Hi.

I don't really want to factory reset it because aside Gboard's bug, the rest all works perfectly fine and I've saved info in the phone and hadn't made a backup of it elsewhere.

Moreover, as on the title, is it possible to install the Gboard apk updated via the Recovery Mode?

P.S. I have tried the Safe Mode, but the issue is from Google themselves so the problem remains as is on the normal mode.

Thanks.

Help Calendar Synch Problems Win 10 Pro and Galaxy S5

Hi All,
Not sure if I'm in the correct forum.
I was using Thunderbird calendar to sync with Google Calendar on my Android phone for years with various versions of Windows (Now on Win10 Pro V1909) and it would sync both ways. All of the sudden I can't get it to sync either way. It always worked before. I purposely was using an older version of Thunderbird [52.9.1] because that was the best and easiest to use. I created a separate gmail account just for that purpose. Now I'm dead in the water. I need just an easy desktop calendar to sync with my Samsung Galaxy S5. Any suggestion are appreciated.
Thank you.......Tom

Draeneg, it's time to regain control of your data privacy

Hello

Have you ever wanted to see what happens in the dark side of network traffic issued from applications ?

I have developed an application for Android to monitor and analyse mobile network traffic. My main motivation is to get a detailed picture of the user-perceived quality of experience on mobile Internet (from the viewpoint of performance as well as data privacy). Draeneg is a mobile application to monitor the network traffic directly on your device without requiring any USB connection to a PC. It unveils the personal and network data used by your (other) applications. You can analyse in details the network traffic to see what's going on with your data: make sure that your applications are compliant with your privacy! Draeneg can also block DNS domains to protect you from unwanted or malicious content for a more secure and enhanced experience on Internet

You can have more details and install the application here [Draneg](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.orange.labs.draeneg&hl=en)

I would like to collect your opinion and suggestion about such an application for protecting data privacy. Comments are welcome.

This is only the first version, work is in progress to propose advanced functionnalities in the next major update planned on January. And the iOS version is also in active development, to be released as soon as the Android version becomes stable.

Thanks for your consideration about my application.

NB : When everything works correctly on Android for decrypting the tls traffic (I'm working hard to find a simple and intuitive solution for endusers), I will open source code. I know, it is really important to provide trust for such an application to protect privacy. :)

I need people to test and report us bugs and suggestions to make Draeneg your application for your privacy protection. Please share the application to your social friendship.

Help Why can't I see a running total number of texts anymore?


I used to have a first generation Moto-X. Since it was a Google phone, it ran on Google's texting app. Now I have a Samsung S10e and have downloaded Gboard to use as my texting app and it appears to be identical to the app used on my old Moto-X except for one thing. It no longer shows a running total number of text threads that I have between any given person. It's not the end of the world but I miss being able to tell my loved one that we've texted over 30,000 times together. It's interesting to see individually how often you text each person that you correspond with. Is this just a function that went away or is it a setting that I'm missing somewhere?

Search Android calculator with no decimal places and with rounding

Hello,

I am looking for a calculator with no decimal places and rounding, than option.

The design must be in material design or beautiful design.

It should also support large current Android devices, e.g. Huawei Mate 20X 5G, Samsung Galaxy Note 10+

Actually the standard calculators on Android devices from design and functions (basic) are exactly what I am looking for. But only this small additional function is missing.

Do you know such a calculator app?

Phone Blackout Instead of Log In

So, to start off with, I'm 15. I'm 15 and I can't tell my mom about this problem because she'll be disappointed in me, and I don't want her to be.
So - I just woke up this afternoon and the issue appeared seemingly overnight. I use a swipe code to unlock my phone but today it's not working. It tells me when I've got it wrong as it always has but now, when I get the code right my screen just blacks out and then brings me right back to where I began instead of letting me, yaknow, into my phone.
I've tried everything I can think of(trying to open via mic, via camera, click a notification then swipe, opening my phone w/ the charging cord in, charging cord out, etc)
I'd appreciate any help or advice!! Thank you!! (I'm just assuming my phone is an E4, I don't know which kind of Motorola it is, sorry <3
