This is a sweet phone!!!

Hi everyone,

I was about to publish my first app on Play Store and everything ran smooth until I had to upload my Android Studio Bundle encrypted key (.pepk file).
The Play console displays the following error message :
"The private key does not match the certificate we have for this application". (english translation of a french message).
I do not know what to do. I downloaded and ran the pepk java tool but the result is the same.
What is the certificate the console is talking about ?
Is it possible to reset it and how ?
When I tried to upload a "regular" apk file, the console blocked and forced me to build my app as a Android App Bundle, thus requiring a .pepk file for the encrypted private key.

I have never changed my email for perhaps 20 years. I only bought a new laptop tow months ago.

Thank you so much for your help.

I'm sorry. I try hard to keep my inner grammar nazi under wraps. But sometimes, much like Dr Jekyll, it just has to emerge.

Let's talk about the constantly misused "it's" when "its" is called for.

According to Merriam-Webster:

It's is a contraction of two words, it is or it has.

Its is an adjective meaning: of or relating to it or itself especially as possessor, agent, or object of an action.

In other words, think of its as 'belonging to it'--just like hers and his mean belonging to her/him.

When you say, "the phone uses it's memory..." you're actually saying, "the phone uses it is memory...", which makes no sense.

Now, if you're saying "it's in the kitchen," that makes perfect sense! "It is in the kitchen."

That's our lesson for today.

Maybe next time we'll tackle the continually misused your ('belonging to you') versus the correct you're ('you are')...

Location is MAJOR factor now.. Gps shows me in places I'm no where near

Hello, i published my game on google play store. All programming,drawing, game design belongs to me.
Only musics and sound effects are the assets which i did not produce and found from different sources.

Game is a platformer-runner type of game. It has 28 different levels with 2 maps.
All levels are have the missions such as finish the level in given time, or collect a certain amount of diamonds.

For people who wants to try the game, there is a link and some screenshots from the game at below.

Hello. I'm new to using forums so, if my etiquette is a little off, please forgive me.
I've had this problem going on now for about a week now, and was wondering if anyone can share their thoughts on a solution to fix it. I've tried everything I possibly could, within my settings but, nothing has been taking care of the matter.
My question is, how do I stop this message (please see attachment) from popping up, every time I go to look at my phone? Thank you.

Ok I can, when I'm watching a video and there are captions I hit ol' 3 dots and select 'turn off captions'. Done.

But one or two videos later, there they are again. Somehow turning themselves back on. Please help!

Hello ,
I have a strange problem
I'm trying to send string using TCP client .
I can see the string that I want to send is in the right length (about 15 chars) , but on the server side I only get the first char....
I thought the prboem is in the server code (which is not) so I have also check with WireShark - agian I only get the first char

what is the problem?

private void initViews() {
txtBarcodeValue = findViewById(R.id.txtBarcodeValue);
surfaceView = findViewById(R.id.surfaceView);
btnAction = findViewById(R.id.btnAction);



btnAction.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@override
public void onClick(View v) {

if (intentData.length() > 0) {

Thread thread = new Thread(new Runnable() {

@override
public void run() {
try {

String server_ip = "My.Server.IP";
int server_port = 8888;

String messageStr = intentData + "!" + Number+"!"+ name+"!";

Socket clientSocket = new Socket(server_ip, server_port);
clientSocket.setSoTimeout(2000);// I thought maye this is the problem - didn't help
DataOutputStream outToServer = new DataOutputStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
BufferedReader inFromServer = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
outToServer.writeBytes(messageStr + 'n');
ServerReply = inFromServer.readLine();

///need to write a function that check the response

clientSocket.close();


} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

finally {


}
}
});

thread.start();



}
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),ServerReply,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
// finish();

}


});
}


anyone?

Thanks ,

my note 8 screen had shadows of the game, it always appears on the screen, I don't know what I do ??

I have a Samsung Galaxy A3 (SM-A320FL). For the past several hours, I've been trying to flash stock rom through Odin. I have no idea why, but all attempts failed. After the first or second attempt, I tried to reboot the phone, but it got stuck at a black screen with a message saying "Device storage corrupt, the data partition has been corrupted", asking me to factory reset. There was a reset button, which eventually brought me to the same screen after pressing it.

I tried following other people's directions by reinstalling Samsung drivers (drivers were most likely not the problem since my phone got detected by Odin), factory resetting via twrp, which couldn't be done because it failed to mount /data. I couldn't even repair /data BEFORE flashing stock rom, that's why I tried flashing stock rom in the first place.

After all of that, my last resort was trying to flash a few more times, once putting in AP file only and once only BL and AP. I probably tried flashing too many times because I can't even enter twrp since turning off the phone quickly leads you to a blue screen with an error sign and the text "An error has occured while updating the device software. Use the Emergency recovery function in the Smart Switch PC software." I tried installing Smart Switch and connecting it with my phone, but it doesn't support my phone. Though I don't think it would have saved me.

So, am I a murderer? Is there any other way to save my phone or can I schedule a funeral?

hello ,
I have an application that send data to my server user TCP connection and wait for reaply.
the data is been send using tcp - working
I get the replay I want from the server .
when I run the code in debug mdoe - I can see ther replay here "ServerRaplay"

but when I don't see it on the Toast - nothing pop up in the my tablet/phone

there are no errors when I run the code


String messageStr = intentData + "!" + Name+"!"+ Phone+";

String ServerRaplay;
Socket clientSocket = new Socket(server_ip, server_port);
DataOutputStream outToServer = new DataOutputStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
BufferedReader inFromServer = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
outToServer.writeBytes(messageStr + 'n');
ServerRaplay = inFromServer.readLine();
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),ServerRaplay,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

clientSocket.close();

what am I missing?
this is all I have done in order to run the toast , didn't add nothing nowhere.(in mainActivity )
Thanks,

I find this very interesting.

If I want to upload images to Facebook but I crop some images first, the cropped up images always display as the most recent, meaning I have to search where they came in the sequence. This is very annoying as my previous phone saved a copy in the same place as the original. Is there an app or a way I can solve this? I have a redmi phone. Thanks.

Welcome to the thread today I wanna share a game with you all that I think is amazing



Before we get started what is 'LifeAfter' you say?

Introduction (Took straight from Google Play!):

Survive together!

A blizzard of devastating virus beleaguered the world, bringing about the catastrophic disintegration of orders and covenants.

When the night falls, the world turned into a living hell, swarming with Infecteds. When you finally caught a break, and discovered a place to rest your sore feet, you found yourself exhausted, famished, low on ammo and plagued by the coldness of night. You can hear the growling of Infecteds, approaching, and you know it's going to be another night of angst and horror. How much longer can YOU survive?

LifeAfter, a mobile game depicting the survival of humanity in a post virus apocalyptic world, is officially launched.

Live on, together.

-Keep your will to survive and hopes alive.
The world you once knew so well is now a foreign place in the wave of a virus epidemic. The life of survivors is constantly being threatened by diseases, famine, cold, Infecteds and organizations with hidden agendas. You'll have to stay calm amid all these dangers and believe there is a way out.

-Live on with anything available.
Explore every inch of the post-apocalyptic world - be it in the city full of Infecteds, or an abandoned mine, or a broken-down college, or a freezing cold forest up in the highlands - to scavenge essential materials in order to survive. You'll need to know how to hunt and gather for food, how to tend to your wounds and make arms to protect yourself.

-Encounter other survivors.
You might encounter other survivors on your scavenging runs. You'll have to be extra careful, for they might attack you for loot. If they are amiable, you can choose to share with them your food, ammo and adventure stories.

-Build the final sanctuary for humanity.
With the trusted friends you made along the way, you can find a place to camp and build, one brick at a time, until you have the final sanctuary for humanity. Together, around the campfire, humans may once again fend off the long, cold night with hugs.

This game is so amazing I got distracted when I was supposed to tell my girl that she needed to go to bed for work tomorrow..don't judge me lol....with amazing graphics supporting up to 4K resolution you will die to try this game...not literally die it's a metaphor lol.

Hello. Is it possible with an opportune app to access data of a pre-installed or simply user-installed app on a non-rooted device? If it's possible, can you give me some reference for code implementation?

I really like the Google environment, but the Pixel 3 XL doesn't have the best of reviews. The 10+ looks amazing but I'm not sure how good Samsung's software is. Would the switch be easy? I don't really want to wait until mid next month to get the Pixel 4.

I've had the phone for a while now and I just went in to rename a couple of pictures that I took, and once I rename them they came back as 3/4 of the picture are grayed out. This is the only time this has happened when I renamed a picture Plus I am using the gallery app that came along with the phone. Does anybody have any idea of what could be happening. There are no SIM cards or anything in the G7 so it's not a sim card problem. It only happens when I rename a picture. Thanks in advance for your help. I tried posting a picture of it but I kept on getting the error that the size of the picture was too big and it's just a plain jpeg.

Location is turned on on my phone, but my location is not acknowledged on Facebook and Instagram. It works for Google Maps and other apps. I have location turned on for facebook and instagram, but it still doesn't show my location.
Help!!!

I don't know much about phones. What does Molly in the phones about phone section mean?
What I'm asking is this some kind of Root application? Is this the Version name????

I drive for Lyft and Uber and would like to find an app that I can turn on when I start driving for one of those platforms and show an overlay on a map of where I've driven once I'm done driving for the day. I don't need any other information other than that. Is anyone aware of any such apps?

I have a galaxy s8.
When I search something on Google/Chrome, I click a website result, and it opens it inside google, is still shows google.com at the top. I understand it helps with speed. I want to stop this.

I already tried disabling the feature below, still happening:

it still shows it in google.com as a mini preview thing:

I logged on to instagram yesterday to fund that all my direct messages were gone I tried restarting the app and reinstalling and my dms didn't come back. I also logged in on a different device to and my dms didn't show up either. I also can't see what people sent me ever since this happened please help

Right, so just moved phones and have everything setup apart from my calenders. The normal samsung and Google calenders has synced no issues.

The problem I have is the "My Phone" calenders will not sync, I don't think they are included in the sync process. They are the ones that are stored on your device and happen to be the calender I use for daily events such as appointments etc. So really do need this one to transfer over.

Any ideas? I've searched but cannot refine the search well enough to reach the correct solution.

Using Samsung's calender on the S10 Plus, I've also used the Samsung Smart Switch, but this does not transfer calenders over. Hopefully I am just missing something silly here.

And while I'm at it, Brave browser.. @#$@ there is no way to transfer or backup your bookmarks to get them on a new device, am I wrong or is it not 2019?!?

A question for any of you Verizon customers who purchased Samsung smart watches through them.

On their website it shows that you can purchase a watch with or without a service plan. Does that mean that if you have a smartphone through them and also get a smartwatch that you have to pay for 2 service plans?
