    Are there any browser apps similar to chrome that don't chew up my battery?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 04:11 PM PST

    I have a Google Pixel 4a, and whenever I use Google Chrome, it seems to use so much battery, and in Battery Usage, it uses about 7% battery every 10 mins. And that's a lot of battery to chew. Does anyone else know of a good browser that doesn't kill my battery?

    VSCO app using 20GB of data in the background.

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 05:33 AM PST

    Hi all,

    I've just checked my Glasswire app and found that in 1 month, VSCO has uploaded 20gb of data! I have about 10 photos on the app. No subscription or anything else. What could this be? Any help is appreciated. I've now disabled network usage etc.

    (Note 8)

    Here's is a screenshot of GlassWire

    Why does my phone keep saying "No sim card" seemingly at random?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 07:27 PM PST

    Whenever this happens, I usually turn my phone off, take the sim card out, wait one minute, put it back in, and turn it back on. It has happened 5 times today. It's starting to get really annoying.

    Ads on TuneIn Android 10

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 06:17 PM PST

    I am having issues with TuneIn and ads. I am using the free version and I can accept that there are ads up to a point.

    I load a station and it starts playing. Then the radio gets quieter and there is an ad in a cube or on the bottom but I cannot hear it. Fine. My issue is that it is quieting the song. This happens 1-2 times a song

    I am using Blockada with this with a few ad lists

    Does anyone know how I can stop this from happening without paying for ad-free? $10/mo is a bit much to listen to free terrestrial radio stations that already have their own local ads/commercials that I cannot by-pass.

    App not found in phone but has permission to camera and microphone?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 06:17 PM PST

    So long story short, I've been having a lot of weird shit happening on my phone. I'm pretty sure it's being accessed somewhere else for multiple reasons, but I went to look at my app permissions and there was one that had access to my camera and phone. It looks like a game or something, it's titled people and it looks like a game. It has four squares with four different people in it. Usually there is a open option to the left of uninstall and force stop, but this one had none. Could not find it on the app store and I cannot find it in my device at all. Anyone have an idea of what the issue could be?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 05:06 PM PST

    So this started a month back But it's got to a point were I can't put my phone in sleep. So what happens is when I turn of my phone like 3 secs later the screen lights in this acid green pixel mess everywhere and It bothers me all the time and if I turn my phone on and turn it off it just happens again and the only way to fix it( that know off is restarting it but 70%o the time it comes back and this really bothers me because I can't turn my phone off and powering off my phone or keeping my phone on forever isn't fun so does someone know what the problem is or what I can do to fix it. Extra info In case:It's samsung galaxy a3 2017 Have had it for 3 yrs

    Thanks

    Factory reset requited on a 1 year old Samsung phone File system limit

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 08:24 PM PST

    I have a 1 year old Samsung s10

    128 gig of phone memory (27 gig iused)

    128 gig memory card (30 gig used)

    Now it is telling me I have reached my file system limit??????????

    A complete factory reset is required apparently, back to factory settings.

    I assume this means that I have to reload everything all over again, this is not acceptable or functional.

    several generations of Apple phones and I have not had this problem.

    My first Samsung and its saying it cannot cope?

    Is this typical of Samsung rubbish?

    Is there any way to fix this without having to go through the full wipe and start over again?

    Can't see link preview in google messages

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 08:21 PM PST

    As the title says, I can't see link previews in google messages. I have a pixel 5 if it matters.

    In my old phone I can see the previews.

    Is there a way to fix this or just deal with it kind of thing?

    Any answer will be helpful.

    Popups arent working for my android phone

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 05:04 PM PST

    Ive tried googling this but all it brings up is how to stop popups, which isnt what I mean.
    For instance, when I try and use the gallery option on discord it doesnt work. If I press and hold on messages it doesnt work, nor do links, nor will it open the sign out menu option.
    For things like tiktok, I cant share or comment. The menus show they were clicked on with that circle that fades, but they never actually open.
    I press and hold, it makes everything else disappear but thats it. The menu thatd pop up wont appear.
    Tumblr, if I enter the reblog menu I cant exit, nor can I share.
    Anything that'd have a popup, like a popup menu, either I cant leave it with the tumblr reblog menu thing, which is the only case of that and could just be tumblr being, well, tumblr, or it wont open.
    Ive tried restarting my phone, clearly cache, doing scans, nothing is working and my phone nothing is wrong.
    Im on an LG if that helps, I dunno the model.

    Need an app which can open text files larger than 2MB

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 04:28 PM PST

    I just tried to open a 3MB text file using Solid Explorer and it told me that it can't open text files larger than 2MB… bizarre limitation.

    I have tried a few other text viewing apps from the Play Store and they're awful.

    So, does anyone have a good recommendation?

    Am I paranoid or is something malicious happening with my phone?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 12:40 AM PST

    I own an LG Android So a few months ago a weird problem began happening on my phone while using chrome. Whenever I went onto a website that had some form of media such as videos, and ad, etc. there was a chance that the screen would glitch out and the page would turn black and show weird white dots with these weird white brackets besides them. Sometimes it would also be static or multicolored static. Every time it goes away if I continue scrolling through the site or visit a new webpage but it freaks me out whenever it happens. I took a screenshot of it happening once and tried reverse image searching it but nothing came up so I deleted the screenshot. Anyways, the reason I'm posting now is because I was just using chrome to google something and I got a notification saying "turned off phone flashlight because application which uses it is open" or something along those lines. (I had my phone flashlight turned on and it randomly turned off). These two things are probably completely unrelated but it sort of freaked me out y'know? Any help would be appreciated.

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 03:16 PM PST

    Last used years ago. Im trying to get a contact out of the phone. Problem is, she is locked out of her device and on top of that. She never clicked the activation link when setting up her Samsung account on the phone so i dont think we can get into her contacts or reset the device. So what would be best option to get the contacts and or text messages if possible. Thanks!!

    Receiving notification every time i reply to sMS (messages App)

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 12:28 PM PST

    Title, basically.

    Every time I reply to a text message via the notification bar, or via Messages for Web, I receive the same exact notification I'd receive if I got an incoming text.

    I've played around with the notification settings but haven't had any luck. Someone suggested turning off Smart Reply, but that also did not work.

    Just got a brand new Samsung phone (coming from a pixel) and was pretty impressed by how easy it was to migrate over. However, the images seemed to be grayed out for the transfer. Anyone know why? https://i.imgur.com/1hHBWUp.jpg

    Question about facebook stories.

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:31 AM PST

    I went to my gallery on my android phone, and when I clicked to share my photo with someone and have the list pop up with the list of names in my messenger to send it to, one of the options was to add it to my story.

    Was that always there? Does clicking it add it to your story instantly or is there some kind of confirmation first? Just worried I accidentally uploaded things I didnt intend to without realizing since its directly under the person I usually send things to.

    Recovering deleted photos?

    Posted: 28 Nov 2020 11:28 AM PST

    I was wondering if there are any good apps or tutorials on how to recover recently deleted photos? I accidentally deleted way more photos than intended, and really want them back! I'll even accept the links to professionals that can do these kind of things.
