    Please Help Transferring Several Thousand Pictures

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 08:43 PM PST

    Hello,

    I have a galaxy S8 and I have spent an ungodly amount of hours trying to figure this out. I have thousands of pictures on my phone (not SD card, that got corrupted awhile back). I plugged my phone into computer via usb so I could just copy the folders over to my PC. Problem is the folders show up (like DCMI, downloads, etc.) but they are empty on the pc but not on the phone. I have tried reinstalling drivers, changing the connection setting on the notification bar on my phone when i connect it, restarting, and so on. I've looked all over the web and haven't found a workable solution.

    Does anyone have advice for me on what I can do to get these thousands of photos (years of family, friends, memes etc.) of photos on to my pc in a bulk or several bulk transfers? I am at my wits end here.

    I'll check back on this regularly to provide updates or clarification for any questions to help with finding a solution.

    Phone Broke, recover possible files ?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 10:37 PM PST

    Hey all! First time poster with just a couple questions.

    The phone screen on my OnePlus 3T has broke and died. I believe the android was setup for USB file transfer but I don't think I enabled USB-Debugging as the various recovery software's I have tried fail to connect with the phone and keep requiring me to enable the software. I can't even use the touchscreen so taking screenshots and enabling it that way isn't a possibility.

    However once I connected to my PC with a USB cable, I can see the internal shared folder of 51GBs or so. For example, I found the pictures I would like to keep and copied them off the folder, but where about would I go to find the Contacts as I'm not having much luck.

    Overall I just mainly want to recover the Contacts & Photos.

    Thanks!

    Has anyone tried leaving battery saver on permanently?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 04:30 PM PST

    The last few versions of Android have a battery saver option. The provided details of what exactly the battery saver does are very vague. It says that a restricts certain background activities.

    I'm curious to know whether anyone has experimented with leaving battery saver on permanently. Does it actually save significant battery life? And does it come at the expense of any important functionality?

    If all it does is disable creepy background tracking functions and the like then I don't see why not always leave it running

    Can TWRP 3.5.0_9-0 support devices with android 10 custom ROM rooted with Magisk?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 10:27 PM PST

    I have a Samsung Galaxy J7 (2015) (SM-J700F) (j7elte) with LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10 custom rom) rooted with Magisk 22.0 and TWRP 3.4.0. I want to upgrade to TWRP 3.5.0 but my device is on the 9-0 branch of TWRP 3.5.0. Will upgrading by flashing the new TWRP image break my phone? Or is it safe?

    Multi-cast to multiple Android devices possible? Car & House

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 10:18 PM PST

    My goal is to mount several tablets (3-5) around the inside of my car. i.e. Behind the headrests, on the passenger-side dashboard and possibly one in the trunk while being able to have some or all of the following control of the devices:

    • Multi-cast / Stream the same video across all tablets (synced obviously.) YouTube video, movie or music video on hard drive, SD card, internal storage, cloud storage, device internal memory etc.

    • App Interactions i.e. My two oldest daughters and I enjoy connect 4. We're driving home from a day at the beach, when my wife asks to stop at the corner store to pickup butter. My daughters want to play connect 4 while we wait in the car. I'd like to be able to open the Connect 4 app so that we can both play as if we were playing on the same device, however, I would be in front seat whether using my phone or the passenger-side tablet and my daughter would be in the backseat using either of the tables mounted on the headrests.

    • Control of bluetooth LED mood lighting around interior of vehicle.

    • Restricting specific devices from being able to leave the current stream / mirroring

    • Devices can be controlled individually i.e my daughter's each one to watch their own video on YouTube or movie and want to connect either Bluetooth headphones or wired headphones depending on the device.

    • Auto start and stop of Android mirroring / multi-cast system as soon as I turn the car on or off

    I am open to using any brand of tablet, Android-only of course.

    I'd like to add the following info as it may help in choosing what's the best route (if this is actually possible) to go:

    • I have a Samsung Galaxy s21 (it would be convenient to be able to have contro of the devices whether it be from my phone, a dedicated device or any device.)

    • I am open to purchasing Samsung tablets if there is a better way than just Android alone.

    • My car, my phones (Galaxy s21 & iPhone 12) both have Wi-Fi hotspots so I definitely have internet to connect to should I want to stream a YouTube video, movies, music videos etc.

    • I have plenty of the cigarette lighter jacks (plenty strong enough to handle multiple tables, phones etc throughout the vehicle for powering and/or charging the devices. However, I don't see a reason to unplug the chargers from the devices as they are staying put.)

    • I've came across a mounts that caught my interest, including various behind the headrest mounts on Amazon, eBay, Etsy etc.

    • Car already has a screen w/ bluetooth, navigation, internal hard drive for music, dvd player, cd player etc. -- I'm pretty sure there's no way to connect an Android device (besides my cell for phone calls and music streaming) to the vehicle's current system.. unless I purchase a retrofit system with Android Auto installed. (I've seen a few different versions.. replacing the screen and/or the main brain with one that has been set-up for my exact vehicle which I believe came in at around $799 or so and that doesn't even include the other screens I need to sync, mirror, multi-cast etc. )

    • I have a raspberry pi (newest one) with noobs installed and a wireless mouse and keyboard along with I believe a 64 GB SD card. It has Wi-Fi and all that good stuff. I also have a little 7-in monitor for it that can be used regularly or as a touch screen if that helps.


    I would like to do this project in both my car and in my home. When it comes to Wi-Fi connectivity for my home, I have cat 6 already ran throughout my house so that I can just plug in one of those wireless discs (I forget what they're called at the moment) or even use a mesh wi-fi system which I don't really recommend, however, if it works then it works but I don't see the need to as I do have the jacks already in every room in my home.

    Can't make a shortcut to an app from the Secure Folder

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 09:02 PM PST

    I have no issue creating a shortcut to a Google Drive document from its own menu and it appears with a secure folder lock icon on a shortcut. But I cant make a shortcut for just an app directly from the secure folder.

    Did they remove this feature?

    How do I change the UI layout of an app?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 08:47 PM PST

    I'm thinking of trying to edit my favorite SMS app, pulse sms, to be more tablet friendly. Right now, the left bar on landscape mode in android tablets is just the settings for the app, but I want to make the left side the contacts and the right side the message window itself. Is there any easy way to do that or do I have to know actual coding languages to do it?

    (Btw this is only for my use only, I dont plan on publishing it)

    Sim swap changing my Lockscreen back ground

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 08:43 PM PST

    Ok so I had sprint, and since they merged with t mobile they made us swap our sim cards from the sprint to T mobile. Now my phone refuses to let me change the background on my lock screen. Any time I change it, it just stays as this indistinct grouping of blueish blobs, like looking at something blue though frosted glass. However if I restart my phone I can see the background I picked last on my lock screen, but as soon as the phone finishes booting it swaps it to this stupid blue blob. Some app must be screwing with it but I have no idea which one! Any help is appreciated. If theirs any detail I can give let me know.

    Telegram Copyright

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 08:41 PM PST

    I'm running a telegram channel to which I forward movies and series from other channels so that I can share If someone asks link for any movies! If those other channels are blocked due to copyright infringement, those files in my channel also gets deleted! Few days ago I came to know about a bot which anonymize files so that even if those channels are blocked, files forwarded to my channel from the bot stays in my channel. Unfortunately that bot is blocked yesterday, and all my effort on forwarding those web series and movies got wasted! My question is, is there any way to retain movies and web series in our channel without getting copyright infringement! I'm not asking that I want run a big channel and make promotions, I just want to retain those files for later use! Someone help - fellow cinephile.

    What's the best app for remotely controlling, monitoring, managing childrens' android devices

    I'm looking to get my son set up with a phone, but I want total control over his device. I've seen a number of parental management apps, but being in IT, I was wondering if there is something more involved I could consider as an option. Any suggestions?

    Sending 'Reactions' to texts from Samsung Galaxy Tab A?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 06:48 PM PST

    I've been watching apple users get to use reaction text messages for over a year now and my jealousy has reached a boiling point...

    My Android tablet isn't compatible with Google Messages, this leaves me using Verizon messages which doesn't seem to have the reaction feature.

    Are there any reliable 3rd party apps that can connect to your existing phone number?

    What does this mean? "A certificate authority is installed on this device. Your secure network traffic may be monitored or modified."

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 12:17 PM PST

    When I swipe down the notification panel, I always have this.

    After clicking on it, it shows this

    It reads:

    A certificate authority is installed on this device. Your secure network traffic may be monitored or modified.

    Is it serious, related to the network provider, and how to remove it?

    Thanks for your help in advance.

    Can't install One UI based ROMs

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 04:42 PM PST

    I was using Havoc OS android 10 but I recently decided to switch to a One UI based ROM (Infinity OS, LightROM, ect...). For some reason every time I flash one of these ROMs I the get this error:
    failed to mount /dev/block/by-name/vendor

    After this I can no longer install anything that requires the vendor partition so I have to flash stock ROM through Odin. In which case everything is fixed until I flash a One UI based ROM again.

    My: Galaxy A50 SM-505W

    My theory is that it has something to do with the exynos chipset.

    Please help me and thank you in advance.

    Just to be clear, stock android based ROMs work without a problem. It's only One UI ROMs that seem to cause this issue.

    Looking for a new phone

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 03:07 PM PST

    My current device is the Poco F1. I'm really fond of the operating system of MIUI, but having using it since it came out in 2018 it's specs are starting to fall behind and the phone itself is coming apart (internally). I'm looking to upgrade in the spec sheet, but also staying in the same price point as when the Poco first launched. I have read recommendations through and through but I can't make up my mind which one is better for me. I'm on a budget as stated, but can be flexible if needed. I have my eyes on the Pixel a4 and even though its being extremely cheap and with great quality overall, the screen is too small for me. I've glanced over the OP Nord, but the 'flagship' model isn't available in the US, and though there are the N10 and N100 models, I feel like it would be a downgrade for my current specs. Same goes for the rest of Poco's new phones. Any suggestions?

    Previous to Android 11 you used to be able to move the navigation bar to either left, center or right. This made the 3 buttons grouped together and much smaller making one handed use easier. Anyone know if it's still possible?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 06:05 AM PST

    Seems I don't have the choice anymore. This is how it used to be done.

    I had this incredibly irritating thing pop up on the bottom of my screen and I can not figure out how to get rid of it or what it's called.

    It takes an entire row of keyboard space for one button and I constantly hit it by accident because I'm used to the old layout. Can someone help me remove it?

    thanks

    Is there a way to block receiving calls from Facebook messenger?

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 01:51 PM PST

    I want to completely block voice and video calls from the app. I used to use messenger lite because it didn't have the calling feature but it didn't have the feature to remove wrong messages that I send a lot. I wonder if there's a way to block all voice and video calls from the main messenger app?

    Thanks for your help in advance.

    New Update Lock Screen Changes

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 10:00 AM PST

    After last night's update I no longer see the player on the lock screen. On the lock screen, if I pull down, reveal the entire drawer, then push up then I can see the player. In notifications the setting is turned on for On Lock Screen. The app also shows that the lockscreen notifications are on. The apps I'm having issues with is Podcast Addict and Spotify. Also, calendar, text, and any other notifications that normally display in the lock screen also show up as a small bar, then you have to click on that bar to expand, then click on it again to see the full text. Is there a way to fix this? I guess, essentially the lock screen functionality is completely broken after the update.

    Phone not recognised by Windows.

    Posted: 01 Mar 2021 07:46 AM PST

    My Nokia C1 is not being recognised. And I think it is something to do with the phone itself. I have tried countless methods. Any method a YouTube video shows you, you bet I have tried it.

    So I decided I should plug it in another different Windows PC. Didn't work. Which leads to my conclusion that the phone is the problem.

    Is there any way to fix this?

    Is there an app that you can use to transfer files from PC over to Phone?
