    What is the dot in my notification bar at the top of my Moto G31?

    looking at that link I don't understand it because the dot is present on the screen when there's plenty of space for more icons And I'm pretty sure mine looked similar. So what's this proximity sensor about? The AI tells me "Typically, the proximity sensor does not put a small dot or indicator...

    What is the dot in my notification bar at the top of my Moto G31?

    As far as I know it has appeared when the notification bar is not full, and that is the only meaning of the dot I can find on a web search.

    I wanted to search to find if anybody else had posted about a small dot at the top of my screen But both dot and top were not accepted by the search making it utterly useless

    Help How to force stop apps PERMANENTLY?

    I don't understand. I don't switch them back. Force stop only stops them until they choose to restart. Which for 50% of apps is pretty much immediately. What has mobile data to do with anything?

    Fckuing Opera doesn't like the quoting mechanism on here. Replying to Milo, yes I've restarted the phone. That does help a bit, but not for long, nothing helps for long. I wish you could plug in extra RAM. A swapfile would make more sense, but that needs rooting. Android needs a major workover.

    Does anyone know exactly how Android memory management works? I've heard it pushes things out of memory (closes them rather than a swapfile?) - so what happens to something like Ebay sat in the background, not showing as running, which should give me messages? Will it reopen when there's...

    CCleaner was the first thing I tried. It's rubbish. It only stops them momentarily then they start again. At least they refunded me the purchase price.

    ROFL you only just noticed! And I never use drill down, it sounds too American. Almost as bad as "now what you're gonna wanna do next is". And it would seem the multiquote broke. I couldn't put them both in one post like I did only some hours ago.
