HTC will not update. Error 410

I just bought a new HTC on Ebay. It will not update. It downloads the update, but when it installs, it only gets to 25%. I then get a red triangle with a ! inside and error 410.

I contacted HTC chat, and the guy said it was a google error, and he did not know what to do. Sorry!

My old HTC works fine and has all the updates.

How can I get the updates to work.

The last security patch was Jan 2017. Software 2.41.605.12

I am using a pedometer app which uses google fit api can anybody tell me "how can i input wrong sensor data to the app so it can count fake steps". Note : i need about 30000 steps a day so physical cheating is tough.

After searching the net and writing to India, I finally found Quick Charge 4 chargers for our phone. I personally checked 2 that are Qualcomm certified. First the list from Qualcomm(to verify what I said):
https://www.qualcomm.com/media/documents/files/quick-charge-device-list.pdf
This is for the model from Razor (it's cheaper)
https://www.razer.com/mobile/razer-phone-power-adapter
This is for the Belkin wall charger(they also have a car version
https://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F7U074/
I purchased the Belkin model because I don't about the Razor company. I was told by my contact in India that they are a solid company. I just felt safer with Belkin. I'll let you know how it works when I get it. (It should be the end of this week)

Hi folks. Before I top myself, any ideas on this one?

Galaxy S8+

I use Google calendar across multiple devices. There is now a sync problem. iPad and desktop work fine but the phone app is behaving in a random mode. If I delete an event on the 'phone, it disappears on desktop. If I add something on desktop, it doesn't appear on the 'phone. If I add something on the 'phone it doesn't appear on the desktop! This morning I edited an entry on the app on iPad at home. Got to work and desktop is up to date as is mobile but now stuff for next year is missing. Cannot get it to sync these events. This is a recent thing as there is loads of historic data there which was entered from multiple devices including the mobile. I've tried uninstalling, deleting Google account, clearing data etc. etc. I rely on this for work etc and this is making my head explode. Aaaargh!

If you were to connect a duel USB OTG dongle or cable to your smart phone could you connect 2 devices at the same time such as a keyboard and mouse?

I am thinking yes, but am not sure. When reading the specs it would appear so:

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/USB_On-The-Go

Attaching two OTG-enabled devices together requires either an adapter in conjunction with the slave device's USB-A cable, or an appropriate dual-sided cable and a software implementation to manage it. This is becoming commonplace with USB Type-C devices.

Just not sure if additional software would be required.

Hello,

My Spinner currently wants to show 8 items at once.
But what I want to do is show four items at a time and the rest
I want to place it at the bottom using the scroll.

What should I do?

PS.
I am sorry if my writing is strange.
I do not speak English well

Hello,
I have the new Galaxy Tab S5e (there is no sub-section for this device yet.)

I got it on Friday and started to set it up, but it wouldn't connect to my home WiFi (Spectrum lease modem.) It does not give an error message, it just keeps trying to connect over and over. This is both on my 2.4gHz and 5gHz networks. All my other devices connect to it with no problems, including my old Galaxy Tablet. This tablet has connected to both the hot spot on my Note 8 Phone and the open WiFi at my work. I haven't been able to try it on another secure WiFi connection yet.

Here are the fixes I have already attempted: Reboot the tablet. Restore the tablet. Turn on airplane mode. turn off airplane mode. Turn off WiFi and turn back on. Force a static IP. Change the DNS server settings for the network. Reboot the modem. Restore the modem to factory defaults. Change the network to open. Change the encryption security to different types. Change the broadcast channel on the modem. Spend an hour on the phone with Samsung tech support. Spend 2 hours chatting with Spectrum tech support. They both basically gave up and said, "I don't know what's wrong with it. It should be working."

I need to go to bed now, but my options left as I see them: Swap my modem for a new one with Spectrum. Buy my own cable modem. Run my old WiFi router off my Spectrum modem using it as a bridge.

Anyone have any advice?

So i've ended up in a weird experiment to reverse engineer Android Pie to be able to run Older Applications & games using the Dalvik Runtime while running the ART Runtime at the same time.

Using libdvm.so i allowed the OS to run older apps that require it, now this is experimental and may not 100% run apps at a full power but it can run along side ART without no issues

I just found out that in less than a month the version of talkatone I've been using won't be supported any more. They're insisting that I "upgrade". What exactly does that mean? Will it cost money? I've been using the free version. I wouldn't say it's great but ok. Does that have anything to do with the problem I've been having with it lately? It seems no matter what number I try to call it's "waiting for answer" and after about a dozen rings it shuts off with no answer.

I love both of the phones, and I'm tied up on which one to purchase. I am looking for the best performance, and after seeing videos on YouTube and reading comparison websites, I am getting very similar results. I am happy to go with either, but again, I am looking for the most performance out of the phone.

Thanks.

Hello, I successfully flashed TWRP using Kies. However booting into recovery just takes me to the default recovery mode, not the TWRP. I had USB debugging and OEM unlock turned on before doing this, and flashed the device with it in download mode. I used the correct file for TWRP recovery, did I do something wrong or is there something additional that I must do to access TWRP recovery?

Some of us require Tasker and Tasker App Factory.

https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/bioopz/
spells out the planned increment natal release of Tasker 5.7 followed by the release of Tasker App Factory 5.7 means that all users like me have to wait and no estimate is stated.

I am a Beta tester. There should be a 5.7.0 Beta 17 release of Tasker and Tasker App Factory. If there were no problems then 5.7 could be released any way you choose.

If you are looking for a recommendation … there should be two FLAVORS of Tasker … Tasker and Tasker Enhanced (Tasker plus Tasker App Factory). Update them at the same time and release them at the same time.

I just discovered a repeatable, possible glitch. I guess, it isn't terrible but more strange. Under Display settings, there is a heading called "Home touch buttons". Then the heading, "Hide Home touch buttons". That's the list that controls which app has the buttons showing and which apps hide the buttons. I have all my apps show the buttons. I've found that every once and awhile, my calendar and email apps hide the buttons for no apparent reason & not at the same time. No big deal. I go to the list and turn all the apps on & then off to make sure I didn't miss an app. I also use an installed keyboard app. After I flip the buttons on & off, my keyboard changes to the default keyboard and I have to manually change it back. Very strange.

Is anyone able to help me to figure out what app this round icon with heart in a middle is?
I was told it's a car app for falling in love with automobile but I'm not sure about it.

Who get this app?

my friend got a used Tesla.. 2016 P90 S- series.

the power and acceleration.. is crazy!!
the amount of control of the car via computer is great!
i can see how it was designed.. from ground up .. an electronic device that is used for transportation.

other car makers are working from the angle... Car with electronic add-ons.

in my opinion... i can see the future.
and here are my predictions: 20 yrs from now.
1. Electronic cars .. will be 97% of the cars on the road.
2. Auto-pilot will be in all cars. (95%)
3. most (60%) people will NOT own a car. they will pay into a service to use a pool of cars.
Just use app on phone.. less than 5 mins.. a self-driving car will show up.
anywhere! any style car you need (car/van/truck).
then you can drive or let the auto-pilot take you.
monthly fee- (estimated about - 1/4 of a car payment)
no insurance, no maintenance
4. Auto- insurance companies will reduce to...1 or 2 insurance providers
Auto-Service provider will insure their own cars.
5. because of the auto-pilot .. accidents will be reduced by 95%.
6. Repair shops.. autobody shops... tire shops.. will also greatly be reduced. few here and there.
7. there will be 2-3 car makers in the world.
8. Taxi service - Uber - Lyft - dead!
9. auto rental.. Enterprise - Hertz - dead!

LOL.. well.. only time will tell.

To dry for my plalate.
Anyone else?

so I have been an android user for years but I only have limited knowledge of android tv and tv boxes.

So I have been given this box its has an M8 logo on it but everyone I have contacted that sell M8 boxes say they have never seen this box before, at the moment it is running a rom from entertainment box.

All I want to do is get the clock and remote working again but I can't find anything about it on line.

Any help would be great.

Don't ask why, but I put my phone in my shoe, which is a tough, faux leather one and left it there while I walked with it for about half an hour. I took my phone out and the screen is cracked and the display won't turn on. The little LED was still blinking so it is still functioning but the screen won't turn on at all not even during bootup. Any advice?

I'm currently trying to find a handsfree assistant app since Google assistant throws an error saying it's not compatible with my phone for whatever reason. So im looking into other options, just trying to find an app that will recognize the button push on my handsfree device. I have a Supertooth HD bluetooth and it connects to the phone just fine, I can end a call by pressing the button on the unit, so the connection is solid and works. But when I click the button to send a command, nothing happens. So my thinking is mainly because there's no app installed to get that command to be recognized. I was going to test Lyra from what i found, but if anyone could recommend some of their favs, that would be great. Thanks!

Hi, I have been having this issue with my phone running Android 8.1 where when a call connects, the speakerphone buttons don't become available until a few seconds into the call. I'm more for one to hit the speakerphone immediately upon connection, but that doesn't seem to be an option with 8.1 Has anyone else had this issue? Thanks!

Hi all, I just joined the forum and am looking forward to posting. I have been a long time iPhone user who recently got my first Android phone the Kyocera Duraforce Pro 2. So far I have been very happy with the phone and OS, definitely have to get used to the differences between the two OSes, but i'm getting there. I also have a Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet. Thanks and I'm looking forward to seeing you all in the posts!
