    Any way I can spoof android into thinking I have a different device?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 09:36 PM PDT

    Basically, I want to make android think my galaxy tab s is an s7. Why? Because amazon's video app doesn't let you watch videos in hd, even though my device is perfectly capable. Research tells me that HD video is only supported on the galaxy s7/note 7 and above. When I go into the settings in the amazon video app, the best video quality option is only 0.56 gb per hour. That's nothing. In comparison, the app on my iphone se, which has a low resolution and can't fully take advantage of HD, has 5.8 GB per hour for the best option. That's 10x better quality! Amazon, for some reason has chosen to not support other devices, which is ridiculous.

    So what I'm thinking about doing is spoofing android into thinking I have a different device. Is this possible? Would it even work? Netflix, by the way, supports full 1080p HD on my tablet.

    Right time zone, wrong time?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 08:53 PM PDT

    I have an LG G 5, have not changed anything myself. Noticed a few hours ago that my time was off by 7 hours. I am in Mountain Standard time. I would change it manually, but would like it to stay on auto time zone. I have tried changing between different time zones, and restarting my phone, nothing has worked. Nothing I looked up came up with the same issue. Thanks in advance.

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 05:42 PM PDT

    Hey everybody, I'm looking for a "brownie points" type of app, we're my wife and I can assign point values to chores, favors, good deeds, etc., and then redeem them, depleting the accumulated points. Anything out there like this? I've been dreaming about something like this forever!

    Want to go back to Android but have questions about iOS and Family Share

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 10:21 AM PDT

    I want to go back to Android, but I'm struggling a little bit with some things that I'll miss from iOS. First, my family is on iOS - wife and kids all. My kids are on iPads, so they can't call or send SMS anyway. So the biggest hurdle is that - they like to send iMessages in the morning before school, and sometimes FaceTime as well. Also, with iOS family controls, I have them set to request permission for all purchases - any app they want has to go through me or my wife (typically me).

    I know on the messaging front, I could get them to use Hangouts or something like that. It would do the same things essentially. I'd just have to sign them both up for accounts.

    The biggest issue is the family controls, how do I maintain that control. I know there is the ability to approve apps in person, but there are times I am not at home or they are at their grandparents or whatever, how do I work that out? I do have an iPad Mini, so I do have that as a backup option, but it really only gets used at home or when we travel as a family for reading.

    Thanks for your help. Currently on an iPhone 7+ and looking to return to the Pixel family either now or when new ones come out later this year. Maybe even both by getting a cheap used original Pixel and using it until the new ones come out.

    No DTMF available during calls, cant navigate call trees

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 11:57 AM PDT

    Hello. I rencently found that my unlocked S7 from Sprint does not have DTMF enabled for calls, which means I cannot pick options from phone call menus. There's no option to turn it on from the default phone app, the option is called DTMF Tones, it's simply not there. I tried installing other dialers, they have the same problem. Starting to suspect this problem is related to the kernel Android Version 7.0 Kernel 3.18.31 Anyone has any idea how to enable it from an app (this phone also had apn menu hidden, I had to use APN Swith app to "discover" it)

    Good eMMC recovery service?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 09:02 AM PDT

    My brother passed away suddenly last month. I have two old cell phones (a Nexus 4 and a Nexus 5x) that both suddenly died due to bootloop which contain text messages and photos of/from him on it. I would like to recover them off the phones if possible. As they're dead already, I'm not concerned if the recovery is destructive to the phone.

    Can someone recommend a company which serves the USA that can dump the eMMC flash from a Nexus 4 and a Nexus 5x? The only company I've found so far is fonefunshop.com, and they only serve the UK and Ireland. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    Swipe gestures not completing on lock screen, help?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 08:55 AM PDT

    Nexus 6P. Not rooted. Oreo 8.1

    When the phone is locked swiping won't unlock the phone or bring me to the pattern unlock. Fingerprint is fine. Swiping will move things around the screen like normal and pull things to almost unlock, but it never triggers the unlock. Tapping notifications is fine too. If I pull down the action bar (I forget it's real name) and swipe up to hide it then everything is fine after.

    Kind of annoying,l help?

    My Future Depends on This: Copy and Paste Phone Number Formatting

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 08:35 PM PDT

    TLDR: Can copying and pasting a phone number from Gmail into a new contact field on Samsung Galaxy S6 pick up a space as a number, making it incorrect and causing texts not to send?

    Need some help with this, there are dire stakes people. A girl I met emailed me (don't ask why) and ended up sending me her phone number to text her. I copy and pasted the phone number from Gmail and pasted it into the new contact field on my Samsung Galaxy S6.

    I did not receive a response, and after days of wondering why, I checked to make sure the number was correct, only to find that the number I pasted in was in the format:

    XXX XXX XXXX

    I went in and deleted the space between the XXX XXXX, and the number formatting automatically changed to a more standard format:

    (XXX) XXX-XXXX

    Is it possible that my text didn't send because the phone number I pasted in picked up the space as a character that's a part of the number, thus making it incorrect?

    Please friends, help a guy out. This determines whether I accept that I've been ghosted, or risk being the loathfully dreaded double-texter.

    Triangular symbol that appeared a few days ago. What is it?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 02:24 AM PDT

    My phone is slowing down and i have no idea what it is.

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 01:46 PM PDT

    Hello guys, so my phone is acting weird. I have an LG V20 that has an extended battery (about 10000mAH). And for some reason, it's slowing down whenever I enter snapshot or any other social media. Is there any way to fix this? Also, the majority of the time my phone starts around 40% or 50% charge.

    iPhone user since original, just got an S9. What do I need to know?

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 06:32 PM PDT

    I've been an iPhone user since I had the original with only 2G on AT&T. Had the 1, 3GS, and 5S which I used until today. I've also been an Apple user since the mid 90s with a Quadra 660. But with the end of the headphone jack, I'm done with the iPhone. So I got the S9 from Verizon.

    What do I need to know as a convert? Never used Android before. From my half a day on it, it's not too bad. I'm not sure I get why there's an app drawer when you have the home screens. Other than that, I'm a little confused and annoyed with those built in programs that you can't disable or delete, like email and internet from Samsung. Looks like you can't root it yet, so I'll have to wait on that.

    But what do I need to know about dealing with permissions, battery life, critical apps to download and anything else? There seems to be a lot of settings so I haven't gone through nearly all of them, but I did set up the face ID type thing which worked surprisingly well.

    Tell me what I need to know.

    Thanks!

    Problem signing apps into google account

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 06:27 PM PDT

    I have had this problem more than once, but it never was resolved. I first had this problem with the google home app, and now whats app, but it happens with basically any app that requires you to sign into your google account. In this case, I need to sign into my google account with whatsapp so that it can restore my chat backups from my google account.

    Usually the app will prompt you to choose which google account to sign in with (of the ones you are logged in through your phone), but instead of getting a list of google accounts my phone is signed in with, it doesn't see any (even though I am logged into it on my android device). My only option is therefore to sign into a new a google account, and when I attempt to, I cannot, because I am already signed in (error message states you are already signed into this account on this device). However I am still unable to choose that account when prompted, it just doesn't show up.. The result is no way to sign into the account in that app.

    I cannot find anyone else with the same problem anywhere online. I just did a factory reset on my S8 and it is the first app I installed, still getting this problem.

    Anyone else experience this? I have tried signing in and out of my google account many times to no avail. Cleared google play app data ad reinstaled whatsapp several times with no success. Same problem.

    Blokada VPN

    Posted: 24 Apr 2018 05:48 PM PDT

    So I started using Blokada. this is a ad blocker and VPN. I was wondering how good is the VPN as I have Private Internet Access VPN on my desktop and phone. IF I enable Blokada, the VPN (PIA) is off in some time.

    Question: Is the blokada VPN good enough?

    Or are there other alternatives like Blokada without VPN?
