How and Why do web videos begin playing while i am on a call?

One night, I said bye and hung up, or I thought I did and gently dropped my phone on the bed. Before the other person hung up, i heard something I figured was on their end. My screen was still on with the call timer running and when the other person hung up, the sound or video stopped. Heard nothing, saw nothing.

I pulled up my open windows/tabs and the second one back was a video website paused. Is it possible that it started playing when i swiped the phone but didn't hang up? If so, why would it play behind the call screen and stop playing when the other caller hung up on their end?

Seemed strange or impossible to me until the other day, a Youtube video I had paused earlier maybe just started playing while I had the phone up to my ear holding a conversation.

My google activity page says "used com.motorola.launcher3" that seems to be close to around the time that call ended. Would that make sense?


Can anyone please help me understand this? Thanks so much. Cheers!

prevent pause music when receiving incoming call

Hello, I have a problem. I want to play music with Youtube constantly over my Bluetooth speaker without pause when I receive an incoming call or other notification. Do not disturb option is not a solution, I need to answer my calls but I want the music still playing in the background. I've also tried with "Separate app sound" but with no success. When I received I call music goes to pause.

Please give me some hint :/

Apps icons doesn't appear in the file explorer in android 9

Greetings to you all .I've got in the file explorer ( my files) an apk file. The previous version of Android is supposed to show the app icon or the game next to the application name but in Android 9 only a green space appears. Do you have this?
Is it possible to show icons in Android 9 like previous versions?

Custom OS effects

Hi, this is thecuriousdenisse. I accidentally locked myself out of my phone (not remembering my passoword). I've done a lot of research to see what to do. A lot of videos told me to reboot it. I tried rebooting it, but anither screen popped up. It was about whether installing "Custom OS" or not. I just want to know if I install this, will my files and apps and stuff still be there? Because I rebooted my other phone (without the Custom OS feature), and it said that something with Samsung that I can restore my files and apps...so I was wondering if it will be the same result? Please respond to this, I am in need of advice!

Thanks -thecuriousdenisse.

Help Bluetooth not working on S8 after Pie update

Has anyone else been having issues with their Samsung Galaxy S8's Bluetooth functionality ever since the Android Pie update a few weeks ago? It stopped working properly for me as soon as I updated it. What happens: I slide down the notification menu, click Bluetooth, the button becomes highlighted but if I slide the menu back up and then down again, it will no longer be highlighted. If I don't slide it back up after pressing it, the button stays highlighted but the Bluetooth doesn't actually turn on, and as soon as I go back to my home screen the button is off again. The only way I can get it to work is to press the Bluetooth button whilst it is changing to airplane mode (during the 3-4 seconds it takes to turn on airplane mode.) Sometimes it won't even change when it's already in airplane mode so I have to do it in the little time it takes to toggle airplane mode. Yes, I have tried to turn it on from the actual settings menu as well, but to no avail. I've not been seeing too much about this online so I was wondering if this is more of a unique issue in my Galaxy or if others have also been having problems, and if so, have you found a permanent fix?

Problems with loadurl file:\\\ doesn't work

Hi

I have an app that uses webview and uses loadurl with file:\\\ but that doesn't work anymore and I can't figure out how to get it to work with content provider because I use local asset html files, any one who can help me ? It works first time when the app loads, but when I do a location.reload() in javascript it can't find the html file when it tries to reload it it throws an exception android.os.FileUriExposedException. I have red that whne you are using api > 24 you can't use file:/// but should use a content provider but I can't figure out how to do that

Here is my mainactivity:

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity
implements NavigationView.OnNavigationItemSelectedListener {

final Context app = this;
String language = Locale.getDefault().getLanguage().toLowerCase();
WebView webView;

private class WebViewClient extends WebChromeClient {
private WebViewClient(MainActivity mainActivity, Object o) {

}

public boolean onJsConfirm(WebView webview, String s, String message, final JsResult jsResult) {
new Builder(MainActivity.this.app).setTitle(R.string.warning).setMessage(message).setPositiveButton(R.string.alert_ok, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
jsResult.confirm();
}
}).setNegativeButton(R.string.alert_cancel, new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
jsResult.cancel();
}
}).create().show();
return true;
}
}

drawer.addDrawerListener(toggle);
toggle.syncState();
navigationView.setNavigationItemSelectedListener(this);

Help All my apps disappeared except the ones by Google and Xiaomi! (Pocophone F1)

I checked my phone and all of a sudden almost all of my apps are not there. All of them except the ones made by Google or Xiaomi.

I checked on the play store and they were all uninstalled. Restarting the phone doesn't do any good.

I don't know what can cause this? Is it a virus? Did someone hack my account? Did I "butt reset" my phone as when I checked it it was unlocked?

Is there any way to restaure them or do I have to just reinstall everything? How do check if something else is missing?

By the way all my data is still here, photos, music...

Thx

Text a photo

I am truly a total novice when it comes to cell phones. I have the Motorola e5 Plus and would like to send/text a photo I took with the phone. How do I do that? I have 5 digit number to text to. I tried to read about it and understand it but I guess I am just not understanding what I have read. All help is appreciated.
