Wear OS update - now has annoying semi-circle

I just got the new "tiles" update, or whatever it is - and now I have a constant orange semi-circle on the right side of my Nixon Mission watch. Can't find any setting to get rid of it, but it is annoying that it is always there on my watchface. Any ideas? Thanks!

EDIT: Nevermind! It apparently just stays until you use it as a "tutorial". A reboot after using it will get rid of it.

Help Can't unlock phone due to needing privacy protection password

Can someone please help me? I have a Leagoo m8 phone which I took my sim card out and tried to put another sim card in and phone locked, I then put my original sin back in phone and switched on phone but now phone won't let me in. The only screen that is showing says I need to enter the privacy protection password which I have no idea what it is or how I find it as I can't access phone at all until I have the password. Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Mobile data doesn't work

Hi
So I just bought a one plus 6t on a trip to China.
When I got home, I chose setup in English , Installed the app store manually etc.
When I put my sim card, I can make phone calls, but I don't have mobile data. When I try choosing a carrier, all my options are in Chinese.....
How do I enable mobile data?
How do I change the phone to be completely in English?
Thanks

Missing features from Gestures

Hi all,
I've just bought a new phone a OUKITEL C15 PRO from Amazon that has Android 9 Pie
getting to grips with the different o/s, my current phone is a Galaxy Ace with Android 2.x :D

Looking through some sites about the new features, one being Swipe Up from Home, yet when I go into my phones for gestures there is only
Jump to camera
Prevent ringing

I've tried a wireless update and it says I am up to date.

Not a ball breaker, but curious as to why it was not there.

EG, I had to find out how to enable Developer Mode as it was not present by default anymore.

TIA

Oh Crap - Amazon as a Carrier

https://www.xda-developers.com/sprint-tmobile-merger/

Granted this is only speculation and nothing has officially happened yet, but I don't know whether to be excited or scared if this whole ordeal gets approved and it goes through

Considering how huge they already are, they'd probably offer even cheaper cell service than Boost under Sprint could. I wonder if they'd leave Boost as is or try to convert it into some Amazon carrier. Hell, maybe they'd give further discounts to Prime users, how cool would that be. Maybe they'd expand it to more bands too, since Boost wouldn't be stuck as an MVNO under Sprint anymore, it would be "its own thing" now. This has some serious potential to be both cheaper and better service wise. You Boost Bois might really have something to look forward to

Of course, you guys probably know me by now and that's not what I'm concerned with. Assuming Amazon actually takes over Boost and turns it into "their own thing" this could spell disaster for Boost Motorolas, one of the modding community's best kept secrets. Amazon already has their own line of smartphones they sell subsidized through their site. Would this mean the ad-riddled Prime Phones would get locked down network-wise to whatever Boost would become? Imagine not only having your brand new G7 locked down to Boost, but being forced to have ads and even more bloat plastered all over the thing. "No problem, I'll just use the patent pending @bcrichster workaround to get myself some custom ROMs and unlock the network", you think to yourself. About that... Prime Phones are locked down bootloader wise and offer absolutely no way to unlock it, period. A lot of people found this out the hard way when Amazon first did this to the Moto G4 (with the exception of a few people who got their phones shipped to them so early that they sent them through Moto's unlocking program before Amazon had a chance to tell Moto to not allow them to do it). This has long since been patched though. Unless a major software exploit is found deep in Motorola's code, you're SOL. Thankfully his patent pending workaround also works on Sprint Motorolas, so let's hope Sprint stays the way they are so it's not totally obsolete

...But wait, along with this Boost deal Sprint would be becoming T-Mobile. If they transition to Tmobile's GSM network rather than Sprint's CDMA, that could severely limit the usefulness of a "bootleg unlocked Sprint Moto" since Sprint/TMO would have no need for CDMA band support in their Moto variants. If this goes through, the chances seem high that modders are very much screwed

Let's hear some thoughts, maybe there's something I missed

Android Studio and Floating Point values.

Is it the case thaqt Android Studio programs, when compiled, build, installed, and run
on Android Smartphones, do experience floating point denormal or pronormal value
inclusion?

For example, what will the following code do, evaluate to true, or false?

double a = 0.1;
double b = 0.1;
double x = a*b;
out.println(x == 0.01);

If the final line produces false, is there a switch for the compiler or runtime that developers
can use to make denormal and pronormal discrepencies simply go away,
for cases that are like this, involving float and double? If so, what is that said switch?
Can someone in the know with all these things kindly reply to me here?

Another battery Issue

After talking to customer service, I took my phone to an authorized repair center. My battery has expanded and bent the front and back glass and the phone was separated in it shell case. Phone works fine but was no longer water resistant. I have alway keep my phone on Samsung's wireless charger stand and from the repeat fast charging it has caused damage to the battery and caused it to expand. Samsung say that should not have happen. Repair center stated to unplug stand when charging is complete. Phone is 3 month out of warranty so $300 later I now am poorer but wiser. At least it didn't explode.

WhatsApp blurred photos on new phone

On my new phone (identical to the old one, Moto Z² Force Edition, Oreo 8.0.0), I restored my WhatsApp backup. It successfully restored all my chats, complete with embedded pics and videos.

However, some of the older pics display blurred; they have a button with an arrow and a very small size, like 200 or 500Kb. Pressing the button yields an error message that 'download failed,' the media file appears to be missing, and ask the sender to resend it.

BUT! The media files exist, in the correct WA subdirectory. They're full size there.

It's like an index or database needs to be rebuilt or something.

Any ideas?

Ready to Root. Advice?

Ready to root this phone.
Been a while since I used ODIN panel, so I thought I'd see what the latest info was.
My phone is an AT&T Galaxy S7 Edge variant. SM G935A

Questions.
1: Will it get rid of the AT&T bootup logo and sound?
2: Will it get rid of the Security Notice "Unauthorized actions have been detected" messages?
3: Will it make the phone work with other carriers such as MetroPCS?

Thanks!

END OF THE LINE

HAVE JUST SPENT A WHOLE DAY, TRYING TO FIND OUT WHY MY S9 KEY PAD IS NOT RESPONDING WHEN I PRESS A NUMBER ON THE KEY PAD IN A CALL. 2 CALLS TO SAMSUNG CHAT LINE, 2 HOURS GONE. DROVE TO NEAREST SAMSUNG CENTRE IN MILTON KEYNES LIKE THE CHAT LINE, THEY EITHER DID NOT KNOW WHY OR DID NOT WANT TO TELL ME WHY.
IT APPEARS THAT THIS FACILITY HAS BEEN REMOVED, SO WHEN I NEED TO ACKNOWLEDGE A CALL FROM MY SPEECH DIALER ON MY ALARM SYSTEM BY SENDING A TONE FROM THE KEY PAD DOES NOT WORK. I AM UNABLE TO DO ANYTHING.
HAVING HAD EVERY UPDATE UP TO THE S9, & PAYING HEFTY INCREASES, FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE WHAT SAMSUNG ARE DICTATING WHAT FACILITIES I SHOULD HAVE, RATHER THAN WHAT I WANT, I FEAR THE END OF THE ROAD IS HERE FOR SAMSUNG. TIME FOR A CHANGE.
I DO NOT EXPECT TO PAY MORE FOR LESS.
VERY ANNOYED

Location reminder app features

Don't know if "Apps" is the p[lace for this, but . . .

I want a location reminder app. I can find too many. My problem is there is one feature I want, but none seem to have it. Actually, not true. I found one, but it changes $2-3 month to get the one feature I want.

The feature? I want a delay in the notification. For example, I want a reminder when I walk into an office. Location reminders notify me when I get within range of the office building. The problem is I get in range, get the notification, drive to the building parking garage, find a spot, walk a block to the building entrance, take an elevator up 6 floors, and, by the time I get to the office, I've forgotten the reminder. Thus, I want an app I can set to notify me, say, 15 minutes after I get to the location. A delayed reminder. Is there such an app?

Accessing a Windows Network Drive

I've read here and Google, but can't find (understand?) the answer. I have a W8 PC and a Samsung S8. I want to access my network Drive (Netgear router) on my phone. I've found a fwe articles saying I must DL a file app to access my Network Drive. The ones recommended require I buy the app. If this is true for every case, I'll drop this request.
If not, is there an easy to understand way to access a Network Drive. FWIW, I think I have Sharing set up on my PC

display goes dark during call

i have a new pixel 3a. love it. one problem: i have my display set to go dark after 2 minutes to conserve the battery. when i am on a call, the screen will go dark after two minutes. i don't want it to. i may want to go on/off speakerphone, use the keypad, etc. also, i use the speakerphone most of the time, so forget about the proximity sensor. also, many times i will be in front of my pc, and during a call put the speaker on, and lay the phone down so i have hands free. lastly, under phone/settings/calls there is no option to toggle the display to stay on. any suggestions?

Cellphones at Movie Theaters

So I went to see the first showing in IMAX of Godzilla King of the Monsters at the Boston Common 19 this morning and a guy 4 rows down from me is whipping out his cellphone like every 5 to 10 minutes. I got so pissed off I left and demanded a refund 45 minutes in. The movie was going really good but this a-hole completly ruined the mood for me.

Has any theater found a solution to this problem?
