    Wtf

    My friend's phone is stuck on what appears to be some kind of download screen. I think it might be a virus. He has been visiting rather unsavory sites. I cannot shut the phone off or do much of anything with it except take a picture or two with my own substandard Moto G Stylus camera. By the...

    Shaken bake

    Recently the Moto G Stylus has begun not to "wake up" when it's jostled, grabbed, etc. Before it was maybe too sensitive. Now I have to make sure it's plugged in and take it off the charger. I checked out gestures and told it to work with both tapping and moving, but no dice.

    Public disgrace er storage

    I know I posted about this maybe a year ago but cannot find it. As godawful as they already were, understaffed, overpriced and rising, they've really taken the cake this time. They are NO LONGER ACCEPTING CASH?!@$ They have a lot of nerve trying to screw over regular people without platinum...

    Cannot save to Telegram

    Just recently I did save some files. When I went to save more, it wouldn't. The only reason I did not include those the first time was that they somehow got bumped. I figured maybe uncleared cache was to blame but apparently that wasn't it. Late last night I did reboot the phone, which took...

    Gallery not gallerying

    I was trying to look at a screenshot with Fossify files. I chose gallery instead of photos or the cricket thing. All I got was a dark screen. It probably has nothing to do with my having selected it in recents. This is the dark green one I specifically downloaded (apk).

    Bluer than Blu

    That piece of junk began acting up.last night. It's been bootlooping though sometimes coming out of it. I don't care as much about the phony as the valuable contents. Of course the lower side key is inoperative. What can I do to make it stop looping and save the data?

    Gunky carpet machine

    Last week I was running it and when I got done I noticed there was a lot of wet crap on the underside of it. I cleaned up a lot but some is still left. Can I unscrew things and get in there for real?

    Big postholiday blowout

    Last night a light stopped working. After investigating I discovered a circuit breaker not headed in the right direction. I tried to reset it but it's being stubborn.

    Telegram to sd

    Are there any Telegram users on here? It turns out that it's possible to have it save to sd instead of internal but it claims to be slower. I made the switch but I'm not noticing any difference as far as internal space saved.

    Restore Samsung

    My friend's new phone, yes, a Samsung, is missing something. At first I didn't know what he meant because he doesn't use most features, just calling and receiving and youtube, really. He doesn't usually text and almost never bothers with the camera. Finally I found out what he meant: no porn...

    Camera crash

    This doesn't always happen, but when it does it's annoying. I might be trying to use the camera when a message appears that system ui is not responding. At first I hoped that if I waited it would turn out ok, but now I just close the app. When I go to camera again, the phone acts as if it's...

    Restore lost contacts

    My friend had a problem with his phone. Now he has a new one but with none of the old contacts. How can he get them back? I figure since cricket is as nosy as the rest of them they probably have that stored somehow, and a whole lot more.

    Safeway sucks too

    There was supposed to be this big sale on pasta and sauce. I guess the pasta kinda was but not the topping, almost $4 a bottle. Then the bag ripped when I dragged it off the bus. I get really tired of these ripoffs, but there:s probably no good place to buy anything.

    Here we go with another can't find it

    I'm looking for a gray fabric Raiders pack with black trim. It's regular size and was available from the NFL shop in 2020. I guess they don't have it now. Yes, I checked ebay. The closest I could get was this but the vertical zipper should be horizontal and near the top.

    Amazon v. Game Day

    We want to watch the game tonight but it's on amazon and who has that? It's a real shame how they're allowed to take something as basic as being able to view football away from people. Is there some other way to catch it for free, possibly on a regular channel? The only alternative I know is...

    Xapk wtf

    Somebody I know lost his phone and I'm trying to help him find it. The number was called but it just went to voicemail. I have downloaded 2 of those find my device things but I can't get either of them to work. I also got an installer for xapk files. It was able to find the xapk but still no...

    Just say NOOO to Pizza Hut

    Last night we were watching the games and somebody got the bright idea to order a pizza and some wings. As the one who knows how to operate such things, I was pressed into service as the caller. By that time he was drunk and somewhat more easily annoyed than usual. I had to do some...

    Apple to sd

    This is for the moment highly theoretical. I MAY be able to get a used apple phone for free. Yes, I know it's treason. Face it...the camera's better. Anyway, I was wondering if it would be possible to transfer or copy photos and videos to the Stylus sd card. Since it's 1 tb it should hold...

    Stuck on a file

    Hello, welcome back, and what happened? Also, I have a question about copying to sd. I have tried more than once to do that with a lot of files and every time it hangs up on the same one. When I look for that file I cannot find it. Am I doing something wrong or is it Fossify (or something else)?

    Book alert

    I'm looking for a couple of kids' books from years ago. One features a girl who badly needs glasses. It shows what she erroneously sees and then what it really is in a series of charming illustrations. Of course by the end she gets the glasses. The other is a coloring book with a story about...

    Another walmart problem

    My friend got a set of bedding from them. It has sheets abd pillowcases as well as a bed skirt and comforter. She wants to replace the comforter and the plastic bag that holds them all. It's king size and paisley on one side with a white background. The other side is light green. The...

    WHAT IS IT WITH THE MOTO G STYLUS?!

    I just had another go bad. It was more or less ok earlier and about 1 hour ago it started having a seizure. It hasn't stopped yet. This was about the most expensive I've had, around $130. I mentioned that it seemed to drain somewhat fast and that it got unreasonably hot without being put...

    Possible xfinity/comcast scam

    About a week ago somebody I know received an unexpected package. It was from them and contained a boxy device which is probably a modem or whatever it's called. He said he didn't order it. Now he got an envelope with a bill in it for almost $70. What's the deal?

    Not a zippy thing

    I have a REALLY big duffel bag abd it has a really big zipper. The darn thing is stuck maybe halfway open. Yes, it's from walmart. I know. I know. How the heck do I get the zipper to zip? I guess there's something about using wax. Is there any particular kind? Does it have to be hot?

    Bath bummer

    The sink is clogged. I tried a paint key to get whatever was stuck and then used Drano gel, just not half a bottle. The best I have been able to do is bail with a soup can followed by a shot glass and then a sponge. There's no money for a plumber and I currently lack a pipe wrench.
