Remote operation

I am a newbie to a lot of this technology and would value your advice.

What I am trying to do is to use my A7 to control a remote camera - a Panasonic FZ1000 - and I am getting along quite well except for one aspect.

I have got the phone and the remote camera connected through the Panasonic app. and that works fine, the phone will control zoom, mode and may other things, all of which again, work fine. What I can't figure out how to do is to focus the picture before pressing the shutter release.

If I just take the picture without focusing, sometimes it auto-focuses, and sometimes it doesn't...so my question is, how do I ensure that the picture is in focus before I press the shutter?

If there is such a ListView, is there any way to make the fourth DD visible only when a specific eve

String[] _InitialSetup_Menu = new String[]
{
"AA", "BB", "CC", "DD", "FF", "GG", "HH"
};

_InitialSetup_List = (ListView) _Main_List.findViewById(R.id._Main_ListView);
ArrayAdapter<String> __InitialSetup_Adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this.getActivity(), R.layout.custom_menulist, R.id._Custom_MenuList_Text, _InitialSetup_Menu);
_InitialSetup_List.setAdapter(__InitialSetup_Adapter);

If there is such a ListView, is there any way to make the fourth DD visible only when a specific event occurs, or change the color?

What I'm about to do now

When there is a certain key event
For example, if you hold down the Menu key and press the UP key three times, the DD menu opens.
I want to say, what should I do?

Galaxy Note 8 - Can't send any video on Messenger App

So this has only started happening in the last week. I'll try to send a video to someone on the Messenger App but every time I always get the same error:

"Video is too big
At least one video is too big. Please resize and try again" download samsung ringtones

But this happens no matter what size the video is. Even trying to send videos that I've sent through to people previously, now give me the "too big" error. I just tried sending one and checked the size beforehand and it was less than 25mb (it was 2.75mb).

It's getting pretty annoying. I've tried updating my phone, messenger and Facebook and still nothing.

Any help would be appreciated

How to prevent stranger viewing data after phone lost/faulty?

Hello,

Lets say if my phone (needs password/fingerprint to unlock) is lost (or faulty whole screen is black/crack fully/cannot turn on and sent for repair), assuming the thief or repairman is an expert and can access the data inside, how can I prevent my data from being viewed/change?

If anyone unlocks the phone they can see the sms/whatsapp/gmail/contact list/calendar/photos...

Is there something that you can do to prevent data leak?
Is it possible like after the phone is lost/faulty, log out of all gmail and apps that are still logged in in phone and delete all photos/whatsapps/sms/contact list/calendar...

Is there anything to prevent the thief retry unlimited retry of pattern/number lock? Or set longer delay after wrong input?

Thanks.

Help Calendar events overriding alarm

Galaxy S5
Android version 6.0.1
Not rooted

I have an odd issue;

The reminder screens that come up for events in the calendar app over-ride alarms set in the clock app. The reminder screens do not auto-dismiss, and appear silently. If an alarm is set to go off, and the reminder screen is currently up; the alarm will go off silently also.

Alarms do not go off silently if there is no event reminder screen up.

I can not find a way to stop this from happening. People are able to send appointment requests to my calendar, which even when not accepted, and with my default reminders set to off, will appear in my calendar with reminder times. I have over-slept many a time due to this.

Transfer Files from PC to Phone in Folders

I am trying to move a folder that contains several subfolders to my S10+ while maintaining the original folder architecture, but every time I make the transfer and try to view the files, it displays the files that were in each subfolder with no organization.

e.g. Folder A contains subfolder 1 and 2; subfolder 1 contains files a and b, and subfolder 2 contains files c and d. Upon transferring folder A, the phone will only show files a, b, c, and d with no organization.

Does anyone know how to make this work?

Thank you!

Help Can't erase and restore Lenovo Tab4 10

I purchased this tablet from Amazon last week and they didn't factory reset it so it ask for the original Google account info. I contacted the seller and they just sent me link of a YouTube video showing how to boot it up to the 'whatever' menu so I can erase all data and reset it to factory settings. Easy enough right? Nope... It comes up to a foreign language, I'm guessing Chinese and it's not even the regular menu the video shows. I'm now trying to just find out how to connect it to my PC with a usb cable and restore the software. The Lenovo support site is terrible. I can't find the instructions on how to do it.

I did connect the tablet to my PC and it recognizes it as a Lenovo Tab 4 10 and shows files, like Lenovo_Suite.exe, MagicPlus_setup.exe, SetupConfig.txt, etc but I don't know what to do with them.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Battery isn't great.

So I always complain about battery life. I can never en to get good battery life from any phone I get. I've tried everything. I don't believe that a flagship phone only has a battery life of 14 hours. Putting it in battery save mode defeats the purpose of buying a 'great' phone. I'm not really a power user. I don't watch that many videos. I don't play games. To have the phone use 25% in 3 hours is ridiculous. I have done factory resets, disabled bloatware, etc. Arghhhh. Any ideas? If not at least I get to rant. &#128540;

Hi, I have a new app on the Google Play store. Here is the link to the google play listing if you want to check it out:

This is an easy to use, fun, and interactive note taking app. You write short notes on a sheet of toilet paper and stick it on a toilet. You can also choose to write longer notes (500 words max) that can be brought up by clicking. There are also goofy things like dancing poop that can keep you entertained.

Help Unable to print from web page using DuckDuckGo

I post here in desperation, recognising this is a browser/search engine issue but I have elicited no responses at https://www.reddit.com/r/duckduckgo.
I installed version 5.24.0 DuckDuckGo Privacy Browser on my wife's recently purchased Samsung Galaxy Tab A tablet because I have used it on our mobile 'phones and my desktop PC for many years.
Opening, as an example, BBC Food and a recipe, tapping "Print recipe" has no effect. Selecting Share... then Wi-Fi Direct from the action overflow three-dot menu identifies my DIRECT-52-ENVY 5640 series printer that is acknowledged on the printer display with "successfully connected to mobile device" when tapped. Nothing further occurs.
I discovered the culprit is DuckDuckGo browser. The print facility works directly in Chrome, tapping "Print recipe" in the case of BBC Food, or "Share..." in the action overflow three-dot menu followed by tapping the "Print" icon in the "Share via" window that displays.
I wonder whether anyone can shed light on this issue?

Help Treatment by Android of .mov and .mp4 files

I purchased a Samsung Galaxy Tab A for my wife in April. I set myself the task of transferring her pictures and videos from her superseded iPad mini and Motorola Moto G 4G 'phone into a new folder structure on the Samsung tablet. I find such operations far simpler to carry out in conjunction with my desktop PC.
I decided to place videos into the same folders as the static images so that everything relating to one holiday, say, was in the same location, rather than duplicating the whole folder structure for videos. I do not know whether this is an accepted practice.
I believe the videos on the mobile 'phone and WhatsApp images, for example, are in .mpg format. It seems that video images from the iPad mini are in .mov format*. The .mpg4 files show as picture thumbnails on the tablet but the .mov files as icons only, which is somewhat frustrating.
I wonder if others share this experience and whether anything constructive might be done to overcome it

* Is .mov an Apple format only, or does it occur elsewhere?

Huawei P30 Pro first day battery drain. Is it normal?

Hello guys.

I just bought today my p30 pro.

I opened it and the battery was at 64%.

I setup my phone etc for some time and the batterywent after some hours to 50%.

Then I put the phone aside and picked it up after about an hour and the battery was at 42%.

Nothing was happening at the background, no downloading no synching etc.

Is it something normal because it was the first usage of the phone after opening it? After the first fully charge I will give it, is it something that will not happen again?

Thanks in advance.

Missing Photos?

Hi! I was wondering if there is a way to recover missing photos on my phone? so yesterday i was clearing out and organizing things in my phone's internal memory. My phone was connected to the computer since i find it much easier to organize using it. There was this one folder containing at least a thousand and five hundred photos that i moved from one folder into the DCIM folder but still inside my internal memory. so i cut, then pasted the folder inside the DCIM folder. the problem is it was taking so long, the loading bar is not making progress at all, when normally moving folders around lasted for like seconds even with bigger sized folders. so i decided to cancel the move. then next thing i know the folder went missing. so i pulled out my phone off the computer and checked. I looked into my gallery and my folder showed up, but there were two of them. the one containing 999 photos and the other containing only twelve. i checked my files folder but only one of the folder shows up. the one with the 999 photos in it. same goes when i check on my computer, the only folder that shows up is the one containing more photos. but what about the rest that went missing? and how can i get it back? really would appreciate the help.
