Simultaneous camera use

Firstly, I'm not an Android dev.

I know my phone has dual cameras 1 color, 1 B+W and the 'pupilary' distance is about 9.5mm
I'd like to know if it's possible on the hardware layer to build an app that would snap a photo with both cameras simultaneously or to record binocular video for use as a 3D scanner, VR content development, or at the very least photogrammetry.

Download custom emojis from the internet?

I want to download a bunch of not safe for work emojis for my Android phone for laughs. I searched the internet for guides on adding custom emojis and the only method I found was downloading different Android keyboards but all the keyboards seem to have regular safe for work emojis. I have 2 questions...

Is there an Android keyboard out there with dirty "not safe for work" emojis?

Is there any way I can download funny emojis I find on the internet and add them to either my gboard or any other custom Android keyboard?

Undo reset app preferences

Hey there. I was having an issue with my launcher app, go launcher, and I read online, that resetting app preferences may fix the problem. I have a Samsung galaxy s9. Well I reset app preferences, and now I'm having a different problem! Whenever I try to apply a theme, not only does it not apply, but the wallpaper is just a blank screen! Also, every time I restart my phone, the wallpaper that I EVENTUALLY set, goes away again! And the icon theme goes back to original, factory theme!! SOOO aggravating!! How do i fix this?? Please help!!!

Apps source code for displaying BT connected heart-rate monitoring device

Hi all,

I'd like to connect several bluetooth Heart Rate monitoring devices to an App that displays all current HR data in realtime for continuous monitoring (just the bpm data).

The App should connect to at least four bluetooth HR devices (or whatever the BT limit of the device is).
Data wise I just want to display the bpm (beats per minute) from the devices all on one screen.

Is this something possible?

Has anyone got any source code or know if this is possible as I can't get any official Apps that support this (Garmin, Polar...etc).

Thanks In Advance

Part of me wants to get a identical used phone but i feel that it might be time to move on and thats why i'm making this thread.
I've not been keeping track of the phone market for years and therefore have no clue what to brands are good etc.

This is what i'm looking for in a phone:
Price around 400$

Good Batterylife
Not to big screen (the s4 fit my hand perfectly) Around 140x70mm
Dont care about camera quality.
Removable battery is a plus but not needed.
Android

Ability to root and flash custom roms with a good dev comunity. (not shure if every android phone has this)
Edit:Headphone jack
MicroSD is a plus but not must

I'm in europe if it's to any help

Thx in advance

How to find out if sim card is defective

Due to some personal reasons, I was unable to use my phone for a couple of days, during which it had completely drained. After booting my phone back up, I noticed that I wasn't getting cellular service, at first I thought that my phone was broken, but I learned that this wasn't the case after inserting my sim in another phone.

How can I confirm if my sim is actually defective, any tests perhaps. And if it is broken, is it possible to recover my sim card

Unknown Notifcation on Phone

Hi everyone. I have a question about a notification on my phone. I've attached a picture of it and circled the icon. This same icon showed up on my phone about 2 weeks ago and whenever I look through my notifications to see what it is, it doesnt show up. I'm worried that it may be some kind of spy app or something...does anybody know what it is? Thanks so much.

Why I lose Wi-Fi connection when I turn off my phone screen?

I have a samsung Galaxy J7 Pro, I am having a problem with Wi-Fi, When I download big stuff 600 MB+ and then turn off my phone screen the Download fails, this problem happens in Googleplay and in-game downloaders but not in Galaxy store, I tried clearing cache, restarting router couple time, forgetting Wi-Fi and connecting back, Also I tried downloading this from my other phone Samsung note 5 and no problems, so the problem is in the phone, Please tell how to fix it, I am running Android 9.0 .

Apps you'd recommend?

When Android was new, I was like a kid in a candy shop, buying apps left and right. :D

As I've moved from one device to another, certain apps have followed me, while others fell by the wayside.

Now when I browse the Play Store, trying to find something to buy, I come up empty.

So I'm looking for recommendations! What are your go-to apps? What can't you get by without? Which app(s) do you love telling people about?

I don't know what I want, so all genres are welcome, but I don't want any "shoot 'em up" games.

Please provide links to apps' Play Store pages if at all possible.

Kindly note that I don't do ads, so free apps are only welcome if, like the Candy Crush games, they have in-app purchases in lieu of ads.

Looking forward to hearing about your favorite apps!

Unsolicited MMS Message - How to Block?

I would so appreciate some help. I'm a Moto G6 user. My system is Android. I'm receiving unsolicited sexually explicit MMS group text messages in the Messages app. These messages display all of the phone numbers of the people in the group, so isn't that nice? I get them twice daily at present and each time they are sent from a different number so blocking the sender's number is not going to work.

Here is a link to the Messages app so that I'm being as clear as possible.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.messaging&hl=en_US

I have searched the web vigorously and cannot find any advice on how to block these MMS Messages. I know I can probably turn off MMS altogether but my family uses MMS to send texts and photos etc. Gotta see those grandkids but I am ready to say that I can't have my cake and eat it too if something's gotta give.

Any advice. I'm not a terribly tech-savvy person so feel free to explain it to me like I'm in 3rd grade. (Wow! I just dated myself there.) Step by step never hurts.

Thanks so much. I hope to hear back. If I've posted in the wrong place please let me know where I should have put this.

App to juggle 2 audio playing simulatenously

I'm currently needed to memorize about 35 paragraphs of text and I noticed that I learn better when I dictate and listen to them rather than reading. However, it's sooo boring!

I would therefore like to play my music at the same time as listening to the dictated text when I'm walking, on the train, etc. Is there an app that can play both at the same time, automatically equalizing volumes for each other so both can be heard clearly? The music I listen to are all purely instrumentals, which fit in great with learning the paragraphs.
