I'm trying to clean some internal storage space and I came upon a whole source that each item says file corrupted. Is their any way to rescue these files?

There's a problem with playing videos is YouTube app and on chrome youtube website. Some videos playing ok and normally with all resolutions, but the most of them plays, glitched.
I ve done all resets with the device, normal reset, hard reset. I ve installed another file of installation of android (version 8.0) from Odin, and the problem wasn't solved.
Recently I realized that's should be a problem with some native codecs H264 of android, because I ve installed Mozilla Firefox and put the H264fy codec at Add-ons and Youtube is working normally on this browser, I tested playing with VLC player and works fine too.
I would like to know, about the folder that contains the native codecs of android and how to replace them, or if I need make Root on my S7 to access it??

i got an ethernet dongle and when i connect it to my phone or tablets the speed test is way slower. on my lg k20 it goes from 15 mbps wifi to 4 mbps ethernet dongle. on my tablets using ookla it goes from 12 mbps wifi to 5 mbps ethernet dongle. i got the dongle from ebay so is that my issue it is not a goo dongle? it does not have a need for outside power seems to get it from either the device or the network. when i plug it into the phone i don't see the flashing internal light flickering but if i connect the lan cable the light will flicker. i did a few youtubes researching this and none of them had power going to the dongle they plugged them into the phone or tablets and they claim faster speed with the dongle. so what might i be doing wrong if anything. i figure the tablets may be to old they had 4.4 and 5.1 but my phone is 8.0 i heard 6.0 was the point for this but was hoping the tables may just work. but the phone should work. thanks

Have LG V20 (US996) rooted using Magisk. TWRP installed and working. Plus of course, BL unlocked.

However, some programs (for example a boot animation changer) runs but never asks for su permission. However, root checkers say the phone is indeed rooted.

And of course, then does not change the boot animation.

Thoughts/ideas/suggestions??

boowho??

There are a few questions related to each other and I couldn't type it out in the title.

Do Android phones and emulators have su folder by default? From what I have seen, Android Studio emulator has the su folder but not my Xiaomi actual phone. I am asking this is because I am trying to implement the root detection feature to an app and I have downloaded the Root Check Basic app to play around with.

I am trying out the Rootbeer library and it says my emulator is rooted because there is a su folder in it but Root Check Basic says it is not rooted. Are there any manufacturer out there included su folder in Android phones?

I'm using Motorola Droid Turbo and when i open play store for downloading apps it does not shows the icons of apps that are installed and that are on store for download but it only happens when i'm on Wi-fi but when i'm using mobile data it works fine all icons are displayed.And when i use Vpn on Wi-fi it displays icons.Recently i have switched to new ISP after that it started to happen on all mobile phones in my house.

I've heard people saying that the reason they prefer Apple phones IOS because they are very secure as compared to Android. IOS does not allow app owner the access to user data on the phone and android does.

Is that true?

Some weeks ago I found that some of my contacts have new birthday dates that I did not register. This new dates are from other contacts. For example:

Contact 1 have an "X" birthday date (true one) and now has also a "Y" date that is wrong
Contact 2 have an "Y" birthday date (true one) and now has also a "X" date that is wrong

When opening the contact in my mobile, can see both dates, but when trying to edit the contact to erase the wrong date, only appears the correct date. The wrong date does not show and can not erase it

When opening the same contact in the Google web, can see only the correct date.

My mobile is a Samsung J7 Neo
Android Version 9
Compilation number PPR1.180610.J701MTVJS7CSG1
Kernel version 3.18.91-16078179

I just setup Codetyphon to create android apps. It compiled a simple app correctly and I moved it to my phone. When I went to the app, there wasn't any way I could find to execute it. Right clicking wanted to open it with a text browser. From what I have read, android will not allow you to execute your own apps. Is there some way I can execute my own apps, possibly through some kind of an android emulator?

Thanks

Hello!

My name is Jim and I'm an alcoho.. Oh wait, wrong forum.
Seriously though, I joined these forums because I'm doing Android development professionally and I'm new to mobile development. I'm hoping these forums will be helpful to me and that I'll be able to offer some help as well.

Regards!

Hello all,

Our company created a hardware device that runs AOSP 5.02 with some minor modifications.
It isn't feasible for us to get our device/Android ROM Google Play certified.

Is it legal or within Googles licensing terms to side-load a version of GBoard onto our devices?

Note: I tried to contact Google directly, but of course I wasn't able to reach a human or find the correct magical email address. :-(

Thanks for any help in advance!

Hey Everybody,I search people to play with me on PUBG MOBILE ,if you are interested ,answer to this topic,bye

I'm getting really tired of their poor service. What's another free wifi calling app that isn't spyware, malware, etc.? Oh, and could it actually make decent phone calls? I guess that's asking a little much.

When I use it wirelessly for over 10 minutes (Wi-Fi) caseless.
Anybody else experiencing that?

Why my all videos are playing in slow motion even in VLC, MX player, Facebook what's app etc

I can't find a solution to the emulator giving the following error message.

Can someone point me in the right direction for my solution?

I have tried a setting change on my Windows 10 and within the AVD manager box. I'm still searching google and can't find a remedy.

Thanks

Hi, I was wondering if someone could kindly shed some light regards a Chinese phone someone has given me at work ,, it Powers up , freezes on Home logo , Doogee, I've tried hard reset, cleared cache , done a power up volume down as well as up , all one does is show me Cantonese , I just pressed Root integrity check , it ran through the files , when it ends it says something like "Error / app,,,/Drive/Drive one APK has been modified , system check fail 1 modified file , system check failed
Am I guessing correctly someone's Rooted it badly and it's more or less a Paperweight now ? It's no drama , but it's a shame because it's fairly new with all warranty cards and manual ,,, I'm no pc wizz , but if anyone knows if it's a simple fix by someone at a local cell phone repair shop I'll take it and have it done for a emgc spare Thank you ...

Actually, I am so disappointed with my new Android device. The specification described it as excellent. But it has issues with the fingerprint. Couldn't apply themes because it does not compatible (I guess) now I discovered that the front camera quality is out of questions. Samsung Z1 has a better camera. The quality is really low and I can see the pixels in the picture. I don't know what to do with it.

Q1. How to temporary prevent new sms, new whatsapp, new incoming calls while I am downloading/restoring sms, whatsapp backup?

Q2. I have remove my sim card from old phone, put in my sim card into new phone, and setup whatsapp and restore whatsapp in my new phone. In my old phone I tap the whatsapp button and I see the "welcome to whatsapp" screen (screenshot https://i.imgur.com/lwPvJQk.png ) that is not logged in and not setup, how do I completely remove whatsapp history/files/info left in my old phone?

Q3. I received a sms that says [Your WhatsApp code: 123-456, you can also tap on this link to verify your phone: v.whatsapp.com/123456] after I install whatapp, I was not asked to enter the whatsapp code anywhere, where should I enter the code? Should I click the link? (I am not sure is it safe to click the link) (note: 123456 is an example, not the real code)

Thanks

Hello All,

I am new here as you can tell from the post. I was a deadly ios fan. I had been using it for almost 5 years. I have owned the following ios phones in the following order:

iPhone 5s - 32GB
iPhone 6s - 128GB
iPhone 6s - 16GB
iPhone 6 plus - 64GB
iPhone SE - 32GB

I know that is a crazy order as I wasn't using the latest phones.

Anyways, currently I switched to android Motorola G5s Plus as I wasn't able to afford iphone and I found something pretty interesting. Android is years ahead when it come to features and customization. iOS is pretty limited when it come to features and it is not customize able at all.

So far I am loving Android specially the features like:

Data Saver.
Notification Center.
Ability to access setting from notification center.
Ability to turn off wifi completely from notification center. Same goes for bluetooth.

and list goes on.

I have joined this forum so learn some android hacks and make my android experience more worth while.

Hello!! I just noticed today that vibration is deactivated when the battery saver extended is on.. is there away to still have vibration on for notifications while this is on??

Please help! I believe my phone has been rooted. It started 3 phones ago with my Samsung S8. Factory reset and everything....finally took it to Verizon and they told me it had been rooted....
I did everything I could before I smashed it and switched to TMobile with a new phone, new sim card, new sd cards, new number. Had the new phone for a week before it started acting funny too. That phone is a LG G8ThinQ & I have also been using a Samsung J3 because the LG screen is all messed up. Both of them are doing the same things. Files delete, system settings change, apps appear and disappear,  bluetooth and wifi come on automatically... I am not very good with the phones but I have gotten some knowledge from just reading everything for the past 3 months. This is driving me insane.  Please help.

Hello everyone

I have a note 9 that will not update. I have tried to get Samsung support, but the folks that are supposed to help (latin support) keeps passing me on to the US. The device I have is supposed to be supported in the latin area. I was chatting with them once now suddenly no one is available for support... Right now the device shows I have android 8.0.1 and a security update from july 1 2018. What are my options? besides samsung that is.

Need more info? Let me know!

When I wake my phone up, usually it shows the screen I was on when it went to sleep, but lately it wakes up and the screen is the bit.ly page. How do I stop this from happening. It is getting very annoying. I have no idea why it is showing up after so many years of not being there. Please help.
Can I delete the app or turn off the page? I can't find it anywhere on my phone.
