Help S6--Battery failure

D
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6. Today i noticed a crack between my casing and my screen and my back panel. Classic battery failure--swelling-- I'm told.

My question is: I read here sometime ago that it was better to keep your battery charged above 60%- 70% than to let it run down to 40%-20%. So I have kept it plugged it most of the time for better part of the last several (3?) years.

The outfit that is currently replacing the battery told me that charging the battery or having it on a charger for long periods of time, could damage the battery in just this fashion--making it swell up and eventually overheat and even explode.

So what's the truth...one or the other? or somewhere in-between?

And what is reasonable?

Ark: Survival Evolved Mobile Spec Requirements!

ARK-Survival-Evolved-1-600x351.jpg


Welcome to the Unofficial Thread for Ark: Survival Evolved Mobile!

This thread will not only allow players of the game seek help from other players but know what type of specs you need to run the game properly so let's get started:

So before you decide to install and run the game here is some accurate spec requirements all tested using my own device!

Minimum Requirements:

CPU: Any kind as long as the CPU has the minimum of at least 1.5GHz (1500MHz) of clock speed

CPU Cores: 4 Cores (you can run this on a device with 8 Cores and only 3GB of ram!)

GPU: Any kind as long as the GPU has a clock speed of 450MHz clock speed, keep in mind ark will prevent you from upping the graphics quality on this clock speed.

RAM: 3GB

STORAGE: 2GB

Recommended Requirements:

CPU: Any kind as long as it clock speed in 2GHz (2000MHz) or higher.

CPU Cores: 6 Cores

GPU: Any kind as long as it has a clock speed of 600MHz or better.

RAM: 4GB

STORAGE: 2GB

Yes you can run the game on ark with 4 cores as long as you meet the core clock speed requirements, the results if using 4 cores instead of 6 or higher seems to be a bit laggy in the menus but when you play in game it is very little noticeable unless you pay attention to detail.


Let me know you thoughts and if i made any errors regarding this info please let me know Thanks!

If you want to download Ark: Survival Evolved from the Google Play Store you can download it from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.studiowildcard.wardrumstudios.ark

Is there a way to programmatically connect to a Passpoint/Hotspot2.0 network via EAP-TTLS?

J
I'm trying to create either a WifiConfiguration object or PasspointConfiguration object in my Android application that will allow me to connect a device to a Passpoint network upon being enabled.

I've tried to connect by building a WifiConfiguration object and adding it to the WifiManager, then enabling it.

I have also tried to build a PasspointConfiguration object, but when I try to run WifiManager.addOrUpdatePasspointConfiguration() with the PasspointConfiguration object, the app crashes with an IllegalArgumentException. I'm assuming that this is an invalid configuration issue.

// WifiConfiguration/WifiEnterpriseConfiguration approach
WifiConfiguration wc = new WifiConfiguration();
wc.status = WifiConfiguration.Status.ENABLED;
wc.isHomeProviderNetwork = true;
wc.FQDN = this.domain;
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setIdentity(user);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setPassword(key);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setAnonymousIdentity(this.outerID);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setRealm(this.realm);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setDomainSuffixMatch(this.domain);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setEapMethod(this.eapMethod);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setPhase2Method(this.phase2Auth);
wifiEnterpriseConfig.setCaCertificate(this.cert);

wc.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.WPA_EAP);
wc.allowedKeyManagement.set(WifiConfiguration.KeyMgmt.IEEE8021X);

wc.enterpriseConfig = wifiEnterpriseConfig;

wifiManager.disconnect();
this.networkID = wifiManager.addNetwork(wc);
wifiManager.enableNetwork(this.networkID, true);
// PasspointConfiguration approach
Credential.UserCredential userCredential = new Credential.UserCredential();
userCredential.setEapType(21);
userCredential.setPassword(key);
userCredential.setUsername(user);
userCredential.setNonEapInnerMethod("MS-CHAP-V2");

Credential credential = new Credential();
credential.setRealm(this.realm);
credential.setUserCredential(userCredential);
credential.setCertCredential(null);
credential.setCaCertificate(null);
credential.setClientPrivateKey(null);
credential.setClientCertificateChain(null);

HomeSp homeSp = new HomeSp();
homeSp.setFqdn(this.domain);
homeSp.setFriendlyName(this.friendlyName);

PasspointConfiguration passpointConfiguration = new PasspointConfiguration();
passpointConfiguration.setCredential(credential);
passpointConfiguration.setHomeSp(homeSp);

wifiManager.addOrUpdatePasspointConfiguration(passpointConfiguration);​

I expect the application to connect the device to the Passpoint/Hotspot2.0 network upon one of the configurations being added to the WifiManager.

The first approach does not produce an error, but does not connect the application to the network.

The following is the stack trace from the PasspointConfiguration IllegalArgumentException:

Where am I going wrong?

Greum
I am trying to get the value of a RadioGroup and have the following code, but I'm being told I can't set the value to true.

Java: 
        final Boolean isFirstTimer = false;
        final Boolean isInvestor = false;

        RadioGroup radioGroup = (RadioGroup) findViewById(R.id.radioGroup);
        radioGroup.setOnCheckedChangeListener(
            new RadioGroup.OnCheckedChangeListener() {
                @Override
                public void onCheckedChanged(RadioGroup group, int checkedId) {
                    RadioButton rb = (RadioButton) group.findViewById(checkedId);
                    switch(rb.getId()) {
                        case R.id.radioButton2:
                            isFirstTimer = true;
                            break;

Programming a tablet

P
I would like to create a program for an android tablet that has a seating chart for each class. If I click on the box for a student, the information about that student will pop up and be visible on the screen - name, bday, points...even a photo... I want to use it to give participation points to students.

What kind of program should I use to do this? Is this an interface for a database program like MS Access?

SIP Client with VPN

J
Hi there,

i am trying to discover if its possible to get some app - SIP Client, with VPN support.

I just use Native VPN in android 9.
I use Zoiper as SIP client.

I want to set up ZOIPER always gone through Mobile-Data and VPN.
Other applications I want to use default (Mobile-data or Wifi) and WITHOUT vpn connection.

Is that possible ?

In native-vpn there is no choice to "these app use vpn" "these app dont use vpn"...

I tried "Bria" sip client, which could support vpn.... but its not possible to find any settings about VPN in that client...

The best way would be to set native-vpn just for some apps ..

Scroll bar showing on watch face

G
My TicWatch E is showing a scroll bar on the right-hand side of the screen at all times, apart from when in ambient mode.

This bar is identical to the one which shows when viewing the apps list. It shouldn't be there, but I can find no way to get rid of it. I've rebooted the watch a few times, but the scroll bar still appears.

The build number shows as OWDR.180307.020.

If anyone has ideas on how I can fix this, I'd be grateful.

Help Long Lost App

L
Hello All! A long time ago I played this game which I loved dearly but have now forgot the name. I've tried checking my app history on Google Play and I've looked over my activity on the app but it's been buried over time.

The app was a top-down, pixelated (I believe), rpg with a large map (kinda open world). Its sword based combat.

The game had an awesome story and the game consists of battling monsters and doing quests with whatever cool swords and armor you get. You do quests and can fight bosses (rpg stuff). I remember playing this around 2016-2017. I also remember some of the story if that helps. Would appreciate anything.

Apps Setting up Android Studio from scratch

G
Hi all,

I have recently moved from uploading my apk files directly to Gplay to using Android Studio.
I'm having major issues with Gradle not updating from version 3.2 and finding clear and easy to follow instructions about other aspects of the set up. Also issues with JDK suddenly not being detected.

Does anyone know of some good up to date tutorials for beginners? Just getting really frustrated as I've spent a lot of time following official steps and havn't gotten anywhere.

I have Unity apps that need to be updated and would appreciate any help.
Happy to post screenshots if that helps?

Cheers
