Latest update killed Moto X4 wifi

Since Saturday, July 20 I have not been able to use wifi to reach most of my usual places! Settings sees my four home SSIDs and connects to each, then claims that no Internet connection has been achieved. Most apps cannot update nor access current content -- e.g., New York Times, Libby, Simply E. But, then, one of those apps will succeed for a while. Then lose contact the next day or hour! As the Verizon tech confirmed: it's random -- but affects the bulk of my apps.
At a genuine Verizon store I was able to verify there was no problem with the SIM; the tech swapped it into a another phone and no problem. As fixes I've "forgotten" my networks and re-entered them, and restarted the phone a dozen times. BestBuy, where I'd bought it unlocked, said I can only await the next update. SERIOUSLY?
Right now in SIM status I see that "Mobile network state" is Disconnected. How work directly with that? (Wow, almost changed to a Guest account in hunting for the APN settings.)
For over two months I'd had intermittent problems accessing the 'net with DuckDuckGo, finally removed that from the phone about two weeks ago, and had been happy to use FireFox to browse.
Does this sound similar to anyone else's wifi problems and, I hope, fixes?

Chomp SMS

Hi, has anyone had any issues with some text messages not showing up in Chomp?

For some reason some of the text messages I get don't show up in this app. If I go to another text message app like Message+ I see them. But they are not showing up in SMS Chomp or Textra.

Has anyone else seen this issue?

Apps Phone location app solutions

I am currently having an app being built for my company that we use to manage our clients repair request. The app will be used in the field by our field technicians. Often times we will get a client call us to see if we have anyone close to a property for an emergency situation. Currently the only way we can handle this is by blowing up phones and seeing who is where. That is very difficult to do with 50+ workers. We are wanting to add a feature to our mobile app that we use to see about where our field techs are at in the world. We know there is some very expensive options that give real time feedback, but we don't really need it in actual real time. Even if we could get a ping location back to our website every 30 minutes or so it would be helpful enough to at least narrow down who is most likely closest. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated on how to accomplish this.

App Inventor Binding has changed its methods?

I've updated my build.gradle (Module: app) with a newer implementation of 'kotlin-kapt' and implemented the navigation plugin.

Android Studio has now highlighted these lines as errors inside the onCreateView function of my Fragments:

private lateinit var binding: FragmentPrincipalBinding

override fun onCreateView(inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?, savedInstanceState: Bundle?): View? {
binding = DataBindingUtil.inflate(inflater, R.layout.fragment_principal, container, false)
[...]
-> binding.setLifecycleOwner(this) <-
[...]
-> return binding.root() <-
}

The methods are now not avaiable for the binding object so, how do I do the Lifecycle owning of the binding for the Fragment? And what do I return now?

What's the easiest way to add files to the Android system partition?

I need to add a root certificate to Android systems. I hope to achieve this by copying the appropriate file the following path: /system/etc/security/cacerts, or using a flashable zip.

Due to the fact that applications from Android version 7 and upwards no longer trust user-added CAs by default, I will need to do this to many tens of devices from multiple vendors.

Possible methods:
  1. Rooting the devices
  2. Via a custom recovery

Drawbacks:

Rooting:
  • I will need to separately find a method of rooting each device. There is no generic rooting method that will work for all devices.

Custom recovery:
  • I will need to obtain multiple customized TWRP (or other) recovery images, one for each device model.
  • Not all devices have custom recovery images available.

Is there an easier and more generic method to achieve my goal?

Connect Neurons - logical game

Hi guys!
We'd like to present you a logical game in which your only goal is to connect adjecent neurons so that the number of neuron's connections matches the value written on it. However, no two connections can intersect.
Especially in harder levels you must plan your moves forward a lot.
We don't have much experience with developing mobile apps. It's a hobby and we created this one in our free time. We are grateful for any suggestions or tips you might have.

"Comma" change to keyboard

So, I noticed today when I went to type a text message that the "comma" on the main text page was replaced by a "Question Mark". Has this happened to anyone else? Did I do something in my settings or is there a way to change it back? I am so use to having the comma on the main page I keep typing a question mark by mistake. LOL

Server Error Occured in Android App

I have a android app that takes the values from user for student, such as FirstName, LastName and Class. When the user inputs the values and clicks on button, it calls the API and stores the values into database.
I am using Yii framework and REST API. Here when I run, there is error as com.android.volley.ServerError.
But the values get stored in the database. Following is the code.

What should I do? I test it using Postman, there also the values are getting saved in table but the response is not working as needed.

Code:
package com.example.anitaa.studentadd;

import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.Toast;

import java.util.Map;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    EditText FirstName, LastName, Class;
    Button button;
    String url1="http://192.168.1.3/student/web/studentrecords";



    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate ( savedInstanceState );
        setContentView ( R.layout.activity_main );
        FirstName= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.firstname);
        LastName= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.lastname);
        Class= (EditText) findViewById(R.id.studentclass);
        button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.studentinformation);
        button.setOnClickListener ( new View.OnClickListener () {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                final String fname,lname,class2;
                fname = FirstName.getText().toString();
                lname = LastName.getText().toString();
                class2 = Class.getText().toString();

                    @Override
                    public void onResponse(String response) {

                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,response.toString (),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    }

                        Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this,error.toString (),Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                        error.printStackTrace();

                    }
                } ){
                    @Override
                    protected Map<String, String> getParams() throws AuthFailureError {
                        Map<String, String> params = new HashMap<String, String> ();
                        params.put("FirstName",fname);
                        params.put("LastName",lname);
                        params.put("Class",class2);

Apps Screen Rotation On Android TV

Greetings devs.

This is Motasem Zir from Business Consult, Kindly note that we're using this app control screen rotation in our digital signage projects in order to control the screen rotation of Philips Android TV 65bdl3050q to change the view to portrait.

The app works fine but when using other applications (ex. Navori) that have a video playback inside these applications the video does not rotate, in fact the video aspect ratio gets corrupted.

The TV can have remote access, ex. TeamViewer, appreciate you soonest response to this request
