Hi All

I am looking for a free recommended Android App for Bus timetable & live times, any particular recommendations, as a few on the play store.

Thanks

I have a number of Android devices at home accessing Internet via Wifi. I have been using them for years and in general it's all been working fine. However, from time to time one of my devices is unable to access a particular website saying:
This site can't be reached
However all my other devices happily continue to access the site, so it's definitely not a problem with my Wifi/internet access. Nor is it a problem with a particular browser as it occurs regardless of which browser I use. The websites that are failing on this one device seem to fit into the "Adult" category. So, for example, I've just tried accessing some of those kind of websites (eg Pornhub) and it fails for just one of my devices (a Samsung Tablet) but all my other devices load the site without any problem. However my Samsung tablet would previously happily display all similar websites. Yesterday this tablet informed me of a formal system update which I carried out and it completed the update without any apparent problems. However I started to notice that suddenly this apparent "Adult website block" seems to have come into play. I am an adult and, as far as I'm aware, I don't have any apps or set up any settings that place any restrictions on viewing any websites.
I don't use any apps that, as far as I'm aware, are designed to place restrictions of what websites I can view. My question is:
Does Android have any settings anywhere which place a restriction on viewing "Adult related" (or similar) websites which I can reset to remove restrictions so that I can view all websites available on the Internet?

Hello. Can't find community discussing the usage of Facebook, privacy and how to navigate its ever changing waters. Who knows of such community?

Is there any way to migrate native app which have Room database to Flutter App with own database without loss the existing data?
I have large number of user so i can't export the database and import into app directory.

I have a Samsung s10e using Android 12. My home screen is actually five panels wide. When I hit home it goes to the middle panel. I want it to go to the leftmost panel. How do I change which panel is assigned home? There are five dots at the bottom of the screen indicating there are five panels.

This happened about a few days ago, I was watching some videos and had to get up to get something, so locked the screen before going as is my habit, when I came back I had a notification which is why my screen was turned on the lock screen, but my attention went to a duplicate padlock icon on the left of the og lock icon which had a sort of protruding thingy next to it, like a landscape or something, something that would resemble a gallery icon in android, I clicked on it, nothing happened, clicked on it again and it disappeared. I turned on my phone to the home screen and saw that whatsapp was on besides the other apps, my whatsapp is locked with my fingerprint which also can be seen from the apps in memory, so I thought it must be a new UI thing from the whatsapp team, so I tried to emulate it but it did not happen again. Funnily, I never saw that lock icon again after that first incident. Nothing seems out of whack with my phone so I do not think it was malicious, but I am kind of concerned what could that anomaly of a duplicate lock icon be? , a bug perhaps?. I tried searching on google and samsung forums but found next to nothing. I am sorry I have given next to nothing, but this is about the only information I have. Hope somebody can shed a light on this mystery, as I am not going to lie its kind of bugging me since it happened.

Edit : Attaching the screenshot.

On my Galaxy S22 phone (running Android 13), when I tap the Recents button on the navigation bar, it shows "# active in background" at the top of the screen if I have # apps active in the background (assuming # > 0). If I then click on "# active in background", a window will pop up labeled "Check background activity", and I am able to force stop any of my apps that are running in the background from that screen. I use an "app blocker" app called AppLock Fingerprint (from the Google Play store, developer SpSoft), and I can easily force stop AppLock Fingerprint by doing this, which defeats the purpose of having it. Is there any way to disable the "# active in background" button, the "Check background activity" window, or the Recents button on the navigation bar itself?

Why do some pics coming through text open as a black page.

I suggest that we discuss here retro games from our childhood.
Are there many people here who had the legendary Sega, Nes, Snes, PS1 and many others. I had Sega Genesis and PlayStation 1 as well as Nes when I was a kid. Who had what consoles as a kid?
My favorite games on these wonderful platforms:
Battletoads (Nes).
Jim Worm 1, 2 (Sega)
Mortal Kombat 3 Ultimates (Sega)
On PS1, played a lot with a friend in Varant Story
Of course these are not all the games I've played. These are my favorites.
Does anyone play these consoles now?

My moto pure g government phone, suddenly started displaying 4 large white numbers on the lock screen after I power phone on, these 4 numbers are placed 2 on top and 2 numbers on bottom creating a large square almost the size of the entire lock screen and the 4 numbers are different each time I power on,

Ok,

EZ Lynk 2.0 it is an tuner for my truck. it uses Wi-Fi to connect to AutoAgent on the phone

Phone is an Samsung S23 Ultra

When I connect to the EZ Lynk I don't have data/internet

Would you happen to know a setting that would fix this? And this in as Have a Wi-Fi device connected but phone uses Cell data to get to internet.

Spotify dies because of the lack of internet.

I love my Spotify but I cant run that and AutoAgent.
Because I connect to EZ Lynk through Wi-Fi.

The Phone I am assuming is trying to get to the internet through the Wi-Fi.

Just hoping you have come across this and have a fix.

Thanks

Hi,

The New York Times recently started using AdChoice ads on their app. I am a paying subscriber. Originally they said the ads would be temporary but they're now decided to keep using them. Most of them, ast least in the beginning were about Amazon.

I have a Note 8 which I do not use as a phone. I use it as a "back up" computer.

I do not have a lot of apps and I also have Norton. I have no malware or other problems with this device.

I have written back and forth with customer service at the Times, to no avail.

Is there a way that I can block, get rid of these ads on my Note 8? I have gone into that opt out data base which goes through all the various advertisers but I've never found that to work in the long run. I have "do not track" turned on, it was turned off before the ads started running.

These adchoice ads are now showing up more, I think on other sites as well. I think it's more. Could the Times be cross "contaminating" my phone?

Thank you in advance.

Hello there! ;-)
I've got a problem with Android car radio (no-name Chinese product with Android 10... Chinese, but from sort of middle price range. Generally a decent piece of electronics... just saying ;-)) and its Bluetooth Loudspeaker system. The Smartphone (relatively modern POCO X3 NFC with Android 12) is only paired with Android Car Radio via Bluetooth (I'm not using Android Auto... That's a long story!) The point is, loudspeaker system works, but sounds quality is simply awful.
1. I've downloaded sounds recording app to test the mic... I recorded my voice and played it aloud - the sound quality was VERY good. So, I assume my case is not about damaged mic.
2. I wanted to explore advanced Bluetooth options in smartphone's Android Developer Mode. However, there was quite a lot of them, I decided to keep with default values.
3. When I talk via smartphone I don't have any reception issues... So that's not the point here!
4. Finally (perhaps that matters?) I don't have sim card inserted into Android Car Radio. I always use my smartphone as a wi-fi hot spot while I'm driving, usually I don't complain about this solution (another long story ;-)).

Can anyone suggest what my be the reason of terrible sound quality? At this point I don't have idea how to solve it. I could send it back to the seller, but I really think it's not a hardware issue. So, if the seller would send me a new radio, I might experience the same trouble. What would You recommend? If I missed something, I will clarify ;-)

Hello

I am facing issues while integrating PhonePe payment gateway in my android application. I used PhonePe PG SDK but the SDK not doesn't have the two classes named , "PaymentInstrument" & "DeviceContext".

Next I want to know how to get AppId and Salt key, when I logged in into PhonePe Business App, I didn't get them. And I have already registered to PhonePe PaymentGateway, but then also I didn't get.

And there is no proper documentation for SDKLess PhonePe Integration using intents.

Hi. I need help...
I have an old LG G Vista (2014) with Android 5.1.1. It stuck in fastboot mode without a reason.

BEFORE HARD RESET:
- It loaded normally from time to time (after I take off the battery and put it in back again).
- It also loaded in Safe Mode.
- It was possible to charge the battery.

AFTER HARD RESET:
- It stuck in fastboot mode.
- It won't go to Download mode.
- It goes to Recovery mode (but it's useless).
- It won't load in Normal or Safe mode.
- It's impossible to charge the battery.

INSTALLED DRIVERS:
- adb drivers.
- LG drivers.
- Koush driver.
- PdaNet driver.

INSTALLED PROGRAMS:
- LG Flashtool 2014.
- Can't install LG Mobile Support Tool (process freezes at 5% of progress)

ADB / FASTBOOT:
- "adb devices" list is empty.
- "fastboot devices" detects the phone!
- "fastboot reboot" doesn't reboot the phone.
- commands like "fastboot erase laf" / "fastboot boot laf.img" / "fastboot flash laf laf.img" gives: FAILED remote unknown command.
- in Windows 8.1 devices manager phone can be shown as "Android Phone / Android ADB Interface" or "TP-Link Android Phone / Android Bootloader Interface" (depending of what driver is chosen in "update driver" section).

*When I'm typing any of fastboot commands I see these commands on my phone screen. For example after typing "fastboot reboot" in cmd I see "fastboot: reboot" on my phone screen but phone doesn't reboot in reality.

**As I read on some forums some people said that it seems like 5.1.1 Android for my phone has locked bootloader but I'm not sure about it. However I'm ready to downgrade to Android 4 just to unbrick the phone somehow...

About 3 weeks ago I wanted to try a new messenger app. I downloaded and installed an app called "Messenger Home". When I installed it, it erased my desktop - with all of the folders so carefully placed and apps organized within. It continually interfered with FB messenger and other apps, so I uninstalled...at least I thought so. Then I had to update my app....it came back again and again erased my desktop. How can I get rid of it?

Hello. I have an Amazon Fire 10 Generation 9 tablet with OS 7.3.2.7 with the Parental Control features turned on. It's a long story, but I would rather not also use the Child Profile(Amazon Kids) function of the tablet. However, I'd like to limit the violence, obscenity, and mature content that can be accessed by children on the web, in games, etc.. Can anyone recommend an app that can handle this? Thank you.

Any idea how expensive roaming charges in central europe are for using a phone gps for biking for 10 days?

If Google backups are in a md it backs up sms
Is there a way to restore SMS from Google backup without wiping and retiring phone and then it asks if you want to restore backup?

Also I noticed mms messages for mms pictures is an option if you choose a level deeper than just sms backups. But if you have never cleared your SMS conversations it can save a lot of data of old picture that can chew up Google drive space from many years of conversations

Anyone know how to purge messages older then say a year so backups and space on phone are not wasted

My carrier, having updated its network, says my phone will not work much longer. I tried to buy an appropriate phone from them but they are out of what I want and have no idea when it might be available again.

I can buy it elsewhere, from several sources. They say, the same phone from other sellers may not be compatible. They can only tell by checking the IMEI, which of course I can’t know until I buy the phone.

Is this marketing propaganda or real? Why would the phone manufacturers be making/selling phones “unlocked for all US carriers” that will only work for some? How likely is it that by buying a major brand, common model, phone I will end up with something unuseable?

I want to have a box drawn around a work or paragraph. I use an s22 ultra
