    My phone just dropped instantly from 60% to 1%, and heated up to a temp that almost burned me

    It's a ZTE Blade. I think I had accidentally been pressing the power button continuously for a few minutes, but this has never happened before. Anyone know what's up? Is my battery about to explode or something?

    Phone Screen Mirror

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 07:49 PM PDT

    Hello, was kindly directed here from r/findareddit. I have a bit of a challenge, and was wondering if anyone would be able to help.

    I need to get into my phone which i wrecked a few years back, and while the screen no longer displays properly, the touch controls still work correctly and none of the internals are damaged.

    The phone is an HTC Desire 626 running Lollipop, though i'm not certain the exact version number. It is not currently rooted, nor have i had any success in the past despite my numerous attempts to do so. Usb debugging isn't currently enabled, but dev tools are, and i'm hoping i can use my s7 to blindly make my way through the menus without too much difficulty.

    I'm looking for a program i can use to mirror the screen to, say, a laptop or external monitor. I've already tried the Vysor chrome app, but it couldn't register it or my current phone (which did have debugging on).

    I know it's a tall order, but i'd appreciate any help anyone can give, and if anyone has any questions, i'm happy to answer as best i can.

    Thank you!

    If there's 1 free GB of RAM (3GB in total), how come apps like Chrome restart when you switch back to them?

    [Lg fiesta lte] phone won't boot. It was on the charger all night I used it a bit earlier today and now the screen won't turn on and it doesn't appear on find Android.

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 08:22 PM PDT

    Plugging into charger doesn't do anything.

    Plugging into computer results in the found new device sound but doesn't show up.

    I don't have usb debugging turned on.

    Holding power doesn't do anything.

    Running out of ideas on how to get it back up.

    Can't change background on Android 8.1.0

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 02:20 PM PDT

    This has been a problem for a little while, can't remember what version it started happening, but I can't change my background picture on my phone, every time I try and change it it works for a little while but then reverts back to an old one that I had set. I have no idea how it goes back to that image though because I've since deleted the image off the device.

    Changing the lock screen background works fine, and I'm using Nova Launcher if that makes a difference. Any help is appreciated

    Power button broke, how can I turn the phone on?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 08:01 PM PDT

    Basically, my Nexus 5X is stuck at the boot logo (not a bootloop, it just happens and usually requires another reboot to fix it). The problem is that the power button is now pressed in and doesn't work anymore.

    Is there a way I can turn it back on? I am currently letting the battery die. The bootloader is unlocked.

    Thank you for the help!

    Textra and SwiftKey

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 07:22 PM PDT

    For the past several months (probably longer), pressing the + button in a Textra message does nothing. It just changes to an X and sits there. If you close the keyboard and press the +, it opens the keyboard.

     

    Current versions

    SwiftKey: 7.0.9.28

    Textra: 3.47

     

    Does anyone know of a fix for this?

    Help! Netflix plays sound, but there's no picture on my new Huawei tablet

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 06:55 PM PDT

    Hi all,

    I just got a Huawei Mediapad M5 8.4 yesterday. It is an 8 inch tablet in 16:10 ratio (similar to the old nexus 7). Model SHT-W09, running android 8.0.0, EMUI SHT-W09 8.0.0.151 (C432). I am not rooted, or have an unlocked boot loader. When I loaded Netflix last night for the first time on this tablet (Netflix works fine on my nexus 7), I was able to get sound and subtitles from a movie, but no video showed up. What was strange, is that when I hit the progress bar to skip ahead in the movie, the thumbnail showing the current frame showed.... but not the video. The movie plays, just the picture isn't there.

    I googled around, found a couple of suggestions, but nothing worked.

    • I tried different movies/shows.

    • I am using bluetooth headphones, but it doesn't work with the headphones connected or not.

    • I have tried clearing the data/cache, and downloading an older version of the app.

    • I believe color correction under accessibility is off.

    • Also tried downloading an episode, same issue.

    • Tried a different internet connection (at work).

    • I have the most up to date version of Netflix, though I tried an older apk too.

    • YouTube plays video just fine.

    • Local video plays fine in MX Player at 1280x720 resolution.

    • Google Widevine Modular DRM is Supported and has Security level: L1

    • Finally, a factory reset of the tablet didn't fix it either.

    • Someone on xda forums has the same tablet, but his Netflix works.

    Any other ideas to fix this?

    Huawei P9 Lite not reading all photos

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 04:51 PM PDT

    Hello, I have a Huawei P9 Lite 2017 with Android Nougat. I took some photos today, but 15 of them are not showing. All are saved on sd card. Those 15 are showing as files in folder, without thumbnails, each with normal size (5mb). I connected the sd card on PC (running Windows 7), reads the folder as usual, except the 15 photos don't have thumbnails, I can't open them and when I try to move them, I get an error: "0x80070057". The phone isn't rooted, but I found the thumbnails of these photos in phone's memory (small size each, around 30-35kbs). I searched google for solutions and tried many recovery programms on PC without luck. Does anyone know if I can get these pictures to open at full resolution?

    Phone too hot to hold

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 04:30 PM PDT

    I was running a hotspot on my S7 for a few minutes, and I tried to pick it up but it's too hot. Is that a problem, and is there a setting to fix that? I have the screen always-on set to off.

    any android programmers. I have a question.

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 04:10 PM PDT

    So I learned how to launch a video camera app through a ACTION_VIDEO_CAPTURE intent

    got this nice little video app records, saves my file to a name I gave it into the directory I want.

    What I noticed is, that the little button that takes pictures while recording, works! So I can still a picture while recording. Not something I expected at all. But here is the one problem. I don't know how to name those files and how to get them to a directory I want. They name automatically and they are sent to the gallery. Does anyone have a snippet of code that actually gives you control of those files they can share with me.

    Is there a trustworthy/safe website from where to download Stock ROMs?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 03:50 PM PDT

    Hi. I'm looking in specific for a Moto G3 (2015) stock rom. From what I can see, Motorola doesn't offer any option to download firmware from their official site. So, I'm looking for site where I can stock ROMs malware-free. Thanks in advance.

    Nexus 7 replacement? Basically the same as Nexus 7 but with a faster CPU?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 03:48 PM PDT

    That thing does not exist, does it?

    I like Nexus 7 2013, but its CPU is slow now. In a perfect world, I could just replace the CPU. A lot of small Android tablets now seem to have 720p screen (Nexus 7 has Full HD). I had tried a 720p 8-inch tablet, but it looked all jaggy and ugly. I do not want to use low pixel density devices.

    The only thing that even comes close as far as I know is that 8-inch gaming tablet from Nvidia, but I have heard that its screen quality is worse than Nexus 7.

    First time Android user. Opinions/Help wanted

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 11:49 AM PDT

    I just picked up a Galaxy S9+ and I'm loving it! A bit of a learning curve (I've used Apple for 10 years) but not too hard to figure things out.

    I was wondering what apps would you guys recommend along with anything else I should look into or customize etc.

    So far, I'm not a huge fan of the default SMS app. I'd also like to change icons if possible. Any help is appreciated!

    Cannot disable data - S9

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 03:34 PM PDT

    I turned off the data for this app, but it's still showing ads. I did the same thing on my last phone, a OnePlus3 and it stopped the ads. That's not the case in this SO.

    I can't seem to load data onto the sd card on my new phone.

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 02:58 PM PDT

    I recently got a referb Galaxy S7 because my old phone died while under warranty. I cann't seem to figure out how to load data into the SD card over LAN. With an old phone I could use either Droid NAS or Wifi File Transfer to access either the internal storage or SD card of the phone, but now I can't seem to get either to see the SD card. This is the case for my old 32GB card and my new 256GB card. It could be that I don't know where in the file system the SD card is mounted, but it's nowhere intuitive to me.

    Voice dialing broken?

    Posted: 27 Jul 2018 02:50 PM PDT

    Did Google break voice dialing? Trying to voice dial from my car or through Assistant directly results in an error telling me I need to install Duo for video calling. I'm just trying to make a regular call. FWIW, the phone is a Sony X Compact on Oreo.
