Something strange happened on my new, rooted Pixel 7 Pro today and I cannot explain the behavior at all. Maybe one of you can.

I have ‘Flip to Shhh’ enabled and I have stay awake disabled. I plugged the phone in and flipped it over before I went to bed last night. This morning, the battery was at 88% (and I have since read a number of posts explaining this and possible ways to address this behavior). However, when I saw this, I assumed the cable had slipped out, so I plugged it in, put it down (face up), and hit the power button to turn off the screen.

Here’s the behavior I don’t understand: About 15 seconds later, the screen turned on! I again hit the power button to turn the screen off and after about 15 seconds it turned on again. This time, I watched it to see if it would turn off after 30 seconds. It didn’t, but after about 15 seconds, there was ‘wave’ that moved across the screen (and this repeated like every 15 seconds).

What the heck is going on?

On my Pixel Pro 7 purchased from Google with Verizon as my service provider. Running Android 13 Build TQ2A.230305.008.C1, I have the Bling app version 6.23.0 Build 27931374. Whenever I attempt to modify a camera's motion settings, I'm getting 'java.lang.NumberFormatException: Expected an in but was 4294967295 at line 1 column 110 path $.advanced_motion_regions[9].' It doesn't matter which camera I attempt to modify. I've stopped/started the app, uninstall/reinstall the app, rebooted as well as powered off the phone. All to no avail. I've contacted Bling support and they are not able to identify an issue. The issue does NOT occur on an iPhone either.

Has anyone else seen this issue? Is there a fix?

Hello all, I recently got a new phone a BLU B131DL Android 11 and everything was fine until this week, but since I have bad hearing I generally use Speakerphone when I get a call, but it seems to be somehow muting the calls now, which I cannot figure out....
Every time I get a call, I answer it, then turn on Speakerphone, but nobody speaks, I think because they cannot hear me as a result of the Speakerphone muting the call. Is there a setting that I could change to stop this??
Thanks in advance!!

Is this a bug that device says "storage space running out" and stuff like downloads, screenshots, etc don't work, even though there is still 20+ GB free in "internal shared storage" ?
Only the SD card is full and is formatted as internal storage

So how can I use the "internal shared storage" space if there is still 20+ GB free?

Thanks

Does anyone have both the DuraForce Ultra 5W and the DuraSport 5W? Specifically I'm wondering what the differences in the primary camera are. The DuraForce Ultra has a 24MP main camera and the DuraSport has a 48MP main camera. Does the DuraSport have better image quality as the higher MP count suggests? I already have the DuraForce Ultra 5W and since it's almost paid off I'm wondering if I should move to the DuraSport for the better camera.

This shows up in the top status bar on a phone and I just cannot find anything, whatsoever, about this icon.

When I pull down it doesn't show up.

Anyone? Thanks!

Hello everyone,
I am using malwarefox anti but still facing some issues. Malware related like system slowdown and compatibility issue etc. If any one have any idea then share with me to solve this issue.

Hi, i was wondering why apps like mobisaver and digdeep can only recover files from 2019 for the most part. Did an android update make deleted files encrypted? How can i recover deleted photos from 2022 and 2023?

Hello, I'm wondering if it's possible to copy app data (save game etc.) from Google One backup of my previous phone to the new one. Both devices are running on Android 13 and I'm talking about copying one application data only, not the whole backup. Specifically I would like to copy all old data from Pocket Rouge game.

Andr 12, Galaxy A12/2yrs old, GSM/LTE

Actions: safe mode, other phone apps (eg virus/malware scans, installed google phone, whatsapp, talkatone, etc), swapped-out sim, google play protect, factory reset)

First time posting-I have an issue with voice calls in that my mic will not unmute (I can hear person called fine but they can't hear me). Hitting mute button only alternates green/white. Only apps tried so far with no issue are skype & voice recorder. Sim tested good in another sam phone (no mic issues).

Any untried possible fix ideas would be greatly appreciated!

My problem is weird. I've had my ASUS tablet for many months. Never had any issue with using the Play Store app. All of sudden, it wouldn't let me load an update on a game I've been playing for years. Turns out, I can't download ANYTHING. App opens just fine but anything I pick goes into "pending" mode and stays there.
I've disabled it and enabled. Makes no difference. I'm out of ideas.

Linux Mint vs. Ubuntu: A Comprehensive Comparison

app removered.

I only need a few basic apps
7 year old Chromebooks are pretty cheap
Someone told me Google Play will stop working??
That would stop be from buying
Is this really the case? Surely Google Play will go on working - maybe the latest apps requiring latest OS wouldn't work... but surely everything else would be OK

That all makes no sense to me. I've got Android phones that haven't had updates in years - they still work with Google Play
Yes, I can't download all apps - but there's a massive choice regardless

I've got an iPhone 4 - that is completely useless. I think it's criminal of Apple to shut off Apple Store

Any thoughts?

There was a flood and now my friend's carpet is damaged. It's all dry now but it somehow managed to mess up the edges of it near the threshold. If I can I will post one or more photo(s). Is there a way to fix it or at least cover the bad part?

In the email app on my Galaxy S20+ I have several email accounts set up. Yesterday I changed the password on one of those email accounts and now that account is not syncing to my phone. I know I need to update the password for that account in the email app on my phone but I can't find where to do that. Can you help?

This is, admittedly, a slightly silly question. On my Android 13 phone, I have enabled three button navigation. When I touch the square button, Overview, the screen turns gray. On my Android 10 phone when I touch the Overview button, the screen does not change color and I prefer this. What can I do to make this happen on the new phone? If it helps, my phone is rooted and is running Nova 7.

My friend went to use his phone today and the screen was all weird. He can't use it. It looks as if it's water damage but he swears it's been dry. He said one side was all black at irst and ow a bunch of spots and maybe some small stripes. If I can oist a picture I will. It's that N10 from metro pcs. .

Please help, my mate 20 pro stopped accepting the 6 digit pin code I have been using for 2 years. I thought it was just a software glitch, because the phone is old. Now my Vivo 25e is doing the exact same thing. Can someone change your pin remotely or something? I am now locked out of both my phones. Please help!

The question may sound stupid, but it's for real. I use True Phone as my default phone app – good program. The only thing it does not seem to have is a way to report a number as being spam. In my old phone, a Pixel 3XL, I used the default google phone app to do this, but some time ago, this app insisted that it be the default dialer. So, I turned off automatic updates, installed an older version, and it worked fine.

Today, I got my Pixel 7 Pro ready to go. I again installed True Phone, but when I tried to install the old version of the google dialer, I was told that it will not run because of the newer version of Android.

So, my (hopefully simple) question is this: What is a good, and easy, way to block and report a number as spam?

I have a new, rooted Pixel 7 Pro and have installed Nova 7 to manage some of the settings. There are three things that I cannot figure out and it could just be that I am very accustomed to the older version of Android...

• The status bar at the top of the screen no longer appears. Yes, I can see it on occasion, but it should always be there. Not sure what I may have done to hide it...
• My previous phone, which ran Android 10, had a 'arrow' at the bottom so that you could go back one screen. I see no such thing on this phone and the only thing I can do is close the app and start it again. What's going on?
• The keypad on my old phone had various symbols above the letters - long press the key and the symbol appears. With this phone, I have to switch to a different keyboard layout screen. Anyway to get the previous functionality back?

One other thing. On the old phone, I could swipe up from the bottom of the screen and see the running apps. If I then swiped an app up, it stopped running. On this phone, I have no idea how to see the running apps and when I swipe up on an app, I think it simply moves it into the background. Is this a fundamental change or am I missing something?

Thanks for providing me some help!

My new Pixel 7 Pro is up and running. I have been able to make and receive phone calls. I have been able to send SMS'es and have received a SMS from a person in my contact list. However, I cannot receive SMS'es from anyone not in the contacts list. I am working with Google Fi and am using Text Free Online - Send SMS messages worldwide to test, and still nothing.

Not sure if it matters, but my phone is rooted.

What should I do?

I have used MyPhoneExplorer with my Pixel 3XL for years with no issue. For me, MyPhoneExplorer is a very helpful, useful program.

I just upgraded to a Pixel 7 Pro and installed MyPhoneExplorer on it. On my computer, I launched MyPhoneExplorer, clicked on 'Add User', and selected WiFi (under connect via). I ran MyPhoneExplorer on the phone, clicked the QR code on the phone, and had the phone read the QR code on the computer. However, at this point, the computer pops up the message: "Connection to phone could not be established: Phone could not be identified."

What on earth is going wrong???

I have been looking all over, but have not yet found a solution that works. I have a new Android 13 phone and want to move a few apps, like Enjoy Sudoku, from my old Android 10 phone. The reason I want to move the app is that that the app's data, like the number of puzzles I have solved, comes over. What are some ways to do this?

Google Backup doesn't seem to work (and does not provide the ability to select apps), AirDroid moved the app but not the data, etc...
