    Battery life expectancy

    It seems like you have two different concerns. The charging difficulties would be a hardware problem, first thing to try is a different cable and/or a different charger. The port on the phone may also have dirt in it, this can usually be removed safely with a blast of canned air ( I wouldn't try...

    Finding older content

    Plasmas haven't been made or sold in quite a long time. They were the first flat panel option to transition from CRTs and they did have a great picture, but as mentioned they were rather big and heavy as well as power hungry and yes they did suffer from burn-in. They are still prized by some...

    Finding older content

    Your profile shows 2000+ posts but only some of them show up by clicking on that number. Selecting "View Older Results" on the bottom does nothing so I suspect that is something that happened when the forum was reorganized that Rob needs to look into. Hopefully that content is just misplaced and...

    [SOLVED] Free up space -- nothing happens

    Unfortunately that's a older device with insufficient memory for modern use. Even if you did free up that 479MB it wouldn't be enough to make it usable.

    Post Your Last Purchase

    Well since this is/was AF- Pixel 8 Pro 256GB. Got a great deal on an Amazon refurb so the S9 finally gets retired, although it's still working great after almost 6 years and it wasn't new when I bought it.

    Still have to apply filter to get proper time sort of new posts.

    Trouble with installed Android OS - HELP !!!

    Unfortunately, no. You are limited to what the mfr. has installed on the device and the updates they provide (if any). Unlike other OS's like Windows, Android is device-specific so if there is no version available for your particular device there isn't anything you can do. For whatever reason...

    Trouble with installed Android OS - HELP !!!

    Banking apps generally don't work on rooted devices, so yes it's probably failing to install because of the custom build.

    Can you see this?

    I like dark mode, use it wherever it's available. I find it easier to look at than a white page. But if you prefer light mode you can switch it, scroll all the way down and there's a style icon at the bottom left where you can select light mode.

    Can you see this?

    On the Updated tab it won't time sort correctly, even when I select last post/descending the post order is incorrect.

    Big Changes at Android Forums

    I stay on New Posts, filtered for watched content. I find that every time I return to the page I have to reapply the filter (not change anything, just hit the Filter button again) for the content to be properly time-sorted in descending order. It's somewhat annoying, would be nice if that sort...

    Looks like it's having an issue with mobile browsers, at least Firefox. I had to switch to desktop site mode to make it readable. That wasn't happening earlier today.

    Can you see this?

    Maybe not a huge fan of the colors (although I'm sure it's a work in progress), but IMO a working pink site is far better than a broken one.

    Check it out - Chat with our staff :)

    Yeah looks like a layout change so forget any bookmarks you might have had. A heads-up would have been nice- Xenforo is the forum software being used.

    ZTE Blade III rooting problems

    You'll have to go back to the future to find out, since he was last here in 2013.

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

    Unfortunately, srigger's last forum activity was four years ago in 2019 when this was first posted. So it's unlikely you'll get a response.

    Auto Insurance

    No surprise, everything is going up. See if your state has a defensive driving course available, here in NY we can take it once every 3 years for a 10% discount on liability and collision. It's a $25 investment that saves me hundreds, beats the return on anything at the bank. Just did one last...

    no device specific forums anymore?

    One of the reasons for the individual device forums was rooting, as that info was device-specific. With rooting really no longer a thing for 99% of people there is no longer a need for that.

    no device specific forums anymore?

    Rob has tabled the name change due to the overwhelming negative reaction. Also he stated that even if a rename to something other than AF does happen at some point, there will be a permanent redirect so androidforums.com will always bring you here whatever it's called.

    I can't get in!!

    Well that's unfortunate. I use TT for several forums, it's convenient to have them all in one place and it allows for global dark mode by using the system theme. I use it in a basic mode without a Tapatalk account (who needs that?) and an effective adblocker (Blokada) so no ads or extra stuff to...
