Help Do Not Disturb

I typically set Do Not Disturb ON when my wife takes an afternoon nap so as to not disturb her if someone calls. I did this today and when someone called the phone rang (and woke her up).

I thought Do Not Disturb would turn off the phone ringer. Is that wrong? And, if so, how do I silence incoming phone calls other than by changing the ring to silent?

What are your favorite Apps?

So, what are your favourite Apps? They don't have to be Note specific.

The top App on my list is unfortunately no longer available, but for me it is indispensable. It is called AlarmPad and allows for proper alarms, not just reminders, to be created just by putting a hashtay in a calendar entry. Thankfully it transfered over with Smartswitch and is working, but I could do with finding an alternative.

The second on my list is a calculator called MobiCalc.

I like this one because it allows for time calculations to be done very easily, which is a great help when working out my hours.

The third on my list is another calculator app called My Script, and allows you to hand write calculations, which it then works out for you. I first had a hand writing calculator on my old Nokia N 97

I have the orignal version, but it looks like only the V2 paid version is available now.

The number of destiny

The game is a transfer of the notebook version of the game 'The Number' from my childhood.
The playmaker had his notebook with a list of numbers under which the data was written in succession by categories.
In the application, the quarterback does not have an insight into what is hidden under the given number on the list, which is why he can participate in the game himself.
Collect a group of friends, have fun, and laugh together from your destinies!
Laugh from your randomly generated life.

Help Cannot mount /data in twrp

The first problem that I encountered was when Messenger started crashing after opening non-facebook links. Then I noticed that Gmail kept crashing a couple seconds after opening. I tried to clear Android AppView cache, data, Gmail's cache, app data, uninstalling updates but the problems were left unfixed.
I found a post suggesting wiping data partition, but that couldn't be done. I tried to repair /data, unfortunately I got error 8. Is it possible that I didn't root my phone correctly? If yes, should I try flashing again?

How to fix ConstraintLayout inside ScrollView is not scolling?

Hello,

My App contains many buttons, which are shown under each other, two per row. I generate the buttons dynamically via Java, which are them shown in the ConstraintLayout.

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

    <ScrollView
        xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
        xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:fillViewport="true">


        <androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
            android:layout_width="match_parent"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:id="@+id/rootLayout"
            >

            </androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

    </ScrollView>

I have tried several layouts beside the ConstraintLayout, the TableView scrolling worked, however the button are not in the correct place then.

This is how the buttons are generated:

Java:
Button b = new Button(this);
            b.setText(myClass.getTitle());
            b.setTextColor(0xFFFFFFFF);
            b.setX(buttonX);
            b.setY(buttonY);
            b.setWidth(buttonWidth);
            b.setHeight(buttonHeight);
            conLayout.addView(b);

Help Help!

Hello, I'm a long time Roku user. After some coaxing from a friend I bought a Toshiba Fire TV on prime day(July 2019). In the shorts time I've had it I've had to reset to factory settings, and a lot of buffering. I never had as many problems with roku as I have with this TV. Someone please explain, or direct me to a site that could, to me is this android TV? What's side loading? My friend is no longer available after he walked me thru the factory reset. Do I need to treat it like android (cache cleaner, virus scan, ram boost etc..) if so, what's the best apps for it? Preferably free? I feel so lost with this TV. Everyday I debate on sending it back, but I got such a great deal on it and the money I would get back I wouldn't be able to buy a standard TV with. I'm feeling stuck, so any information would be greatly appreciated.

I know Or I hope.. can get on hard drive and delete Samsung account, yada yada. BUT... I have feeling this will be punitive!! IF I DELETE SAMSUNG acct.. I cant use any of their info... isnt that their loss.. throwing away baby with the bath water? HELP!!! Going to bed finally.. maybe I can get some responses from this diatribe on my otherwise beautiful device? Katie

GPS Issue

I have an Honor 7x Android. Phone is fairly new but GPS started not working properly. Any map I load with driving directions the GPS constantly jumps around, freezes, tries to reload but doesn't recognize my actual location. I've installed Gps Status and GPS essentials but doesn't fix anything. This will happen on any map I use. Any advice?

Help My Korean SK Telecom S9+ missing features

Screenshot_20190825-225157_Camera.jpg
I bought a Korean-issued Samsung S9 Plus on eBay, SK Telecom, and was looking at some YouTube videos about tips and tricks, and noticed that I couldn't do certain things. For one thing there's no option to shoot in raw and jpeg at the same time. Are these limitations that some foreign versions appear to have something that one can correct? Would you have to root the device? Also, The Colonel on this Korean phone has a lower version number then on a different S9 I have from an American Carrier. However the software is being reported asView attachment 144130 completely updated. Is this something that should bother me? Thanks in advance.

App Selection

When you 'click' a type of file, Android has a setting which determines which app to call (for that particular file type). Better Open With, Default App Manager, and other apps attempt to control this, but where are the actual settings and can I see/modify myself?

I've looked in Settings&gt;apps&gt;default apps but this doesn't allow me to change (clear defaults doesn't really help).


TIA
