Help GPS - only battery saving mode is available?

Android version: 6.0-01008
Tablet model: Alcatel Pixi 4 7"
Model number: 8063

Problem:

In Settings-->Location, the "Mode" has only one option: Battery saving.

No other options are there, so no "Device Only" (GPS)" and no "High Accuracy" (GPS + WiFi + cell towers).

As a consequence, I can't use GPS when I'm on a road.

How can get the other options back in the menu?


Thanks a lot!

S9 automatically shuts off

So I just got this new Galaxy S9 and while plowing through the settings I think I chose something if I remember correctly that said automatically shut off if not used for so many hours. So my phone shuts off at night time after about 8 hours of sitting idle I cannot find this setting again as I do not want it to shut off. I do have it set to restart but I don't want it to shut off does someone know where the setting is?

USB port is not working

I seem to be having a problem getting devices to connect to my phone through USB cables. Both computers and media devices do not detect the phone. The problem is not the cables. Same cables used with another note 8 works just fine and both computer and devices abled to detect the other phone. Went into developers option and did the usb debugging. Still does not work. Have compared settings with the other note 8 within the developer options and have duplicated the settings. Still does not work. Charging works fine. Is there any other settings i am missing out or do i need to do factory reset?

The Beatles set new record!

My all-time favorite band, and the world's all-time most popular, the Beatles, have set yet another record. Their Abbey Road album has hit #1 again--50 years after its first time. :o

"The Beatles' Abbey Road has returned to number one in the UK, 50 years after it first topped the album charts.

The Fab Four reclaimed the top spot with an expanded anniversary edition.

The feat also sees the album set a record - the gap of 49 years and 252 days since its initial chart-topping run ended in early 1970 is the longest gap before returning to number one.

"It's hard to believe that Abbey Road still holds up after all these years," tweeted Sir Paul McCartney on Friday.

"But then again it's a bloody cool album," he added."


Indeed it is. :D

Have you updated to 3.37.617.1 (Pie) on your U11?

* 3.37.617.1 (1.28GB) Pie update became available in the USA a couple weeks ago

Wondering if you have downloaded / made the change on your HTC U11:
A) Notice any significant (good or bad) changes?
B) Any issues (the big question)?????

I haven't seen much info / results out there about this update here in the USA (not that I know of many places to look for that info lol)
I haven't done the download yet - My U11 has been running great since day 1 and I am a bit apprehensive about going to Pie after all the issues that people were having overseas (they have had it for a while along with a handful of updates to try and fix "issues")

Appreciate the info!

Seeing default Android files from a PC

Hello,
Is there any ways to see the original Android system files from a PC, without rooting the phone?
I would like to access to the folder that stores all the default ringtones / notification sounds.

If there are no ways without rooting the phone, then can somebody help me finding the correct documentation to root my Meizu 15 Light (M87H), Android 7.1.2? I can't find anything solid.

Thanks a lot!

Friendly.

Intermittent connection to router but works on hotspot

Hi,

I have an unusual problem with my device. Whenever I try to connect my phone to the router, it always says connected, no internet access. I've tried everything from restarting my phone, putting it on static, turning airplane mode on and off but nothing seems to work. Here's the weird thing, my laptop can connect to my router without any issues then I put it on hotspot and my phone connects fine to the internet on the computer. Any help would would be appreciated for me to be able to use the internet directly to my router. Same issue with my huawei tablet.

This phone is the worst phone i have ever seen when it comes to durability!

If you havent been aware that the newly fixed version of the fold is kinda terrible if you llok at the video below by "JerryRigsEverything" you will see why its a terrible device to take outdoors:


Now if you really watched the video you know what i mean by its terrible if this happens to your device, to me its more to be used at hime then out doors thats if you drop it in dirt etc.

Samaung Note 3

I recently had rooted my samsung note 3, just for fun and knowledge. I had installed twrp recovery over stock rom. Then today I was just fiddling around in recovery and accidentally wiped my entire os and every shred of data in phone. My Sd card in intact. And to make things worse I flashed stock android recovery over it.
Now all I can boot into is stock recovery and odin mode. But because I wiped all the data I am not able to get my boot loader odin to connect with my pc odin.

Can anyone help me with it?
Or is it just to be thrown away??
Please help.

Help Moto G6 home screen bottom Circle, Square and Delta gone missing

A few days ago my Moto G6 updated from Android 8 to Android 9, and:
My Home screen bottom controls on the G6, the circle, square and delta, went missing, and I want them back! What happened was - when I wanted to quit out of an app the Square (and then the X) stopped working. The Square would only bring a shrunken image of the app, I think a Moto 'feature', but there was no X to quit the app. So I fooled around with some setting or other
icon_redface.gif
and now I just have a Horizontal line down there where the Circle, Square and Delta used to be. That Line does do some things, but not what I want, and no Quit X. Help!
