    Are there app-specific system settings toggles?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 07:36 PM PDT

    Is there a way to change my system settings when a specific app is opened? I'd like to turn on Do Not Disturb, disable Night Mode, and disable automatic brightness adjustments while I'm playing Wild Rift, but I can't find a way of doing it on Android.

    I'm on a Pixel 5 running Android 11.

    Help recovering an important voicemail

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 09:25 PM PDT

    Hi there! I have this tradition of listenig to a voicemail I saved from my grandparents every year on my birthday since they passed. My birthday is mid-July, and like the previous years, I opened my Google Music app to listen to my grandparents sing me happy birthday. I panicked this year because I opened the app (the first time since my previous birthday in 2020 because I really only use spotify now) to find that Google music was bought by YouTube. So, I tried checking my internal storage to find it and I can't seem to locate any voicemail past 2020 (I did get an upgraded phone in Jan 2020). At this point, I'm slightly panicking and very very sad. I'm reaching out wondering if there is any way in this magnificent universe that this voicemail is somehwere out there in the void and is retrievable? Thank you for any help you can provide.

    Search Tools missing in Google app

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 09:10 PM PDT

    The Search Tools (i.e. sort by date) is missing in my google app all of a sudden (Pixel 4XL, Android 12 beta). It's there when I use Google in my Edge browser, but no longer in the default app. Anyone else experiencing this?

    S10e | Can I change from ATT to factory firmware so my device receives Android updates?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 03:59 PM PDT

    I bought an unlocked s10e but it's att carrier branded and does not receive OTA updates without an active att sim. My security updates are over a year late and I can't use a Visible sim card because of it.

    Can I switch from att firmware to global firmware to receive updates, is that a thing? Will my device work normally?

    I found this guide which seems good and pretty similar to my situation: https://youtu.be/xuV5-v91IUA but I'm not clear on if I can switch firmware or not, I'm not sure if thats what he did for his wife? Seems like it is but he doesn't clarify.

    Tl;dr: My device is network unlocked but carrier branded, I want to make my phone network unlocked with software like factory unlocked so I can receive all updates as soon as they come out. Is that possible?

    Unable to attach files in Gmail or upload to Drive

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 10:38 PM PDT

    Pixel 2XL user for over 3 years without any problems.

    Today, I tried attaching a photo to an email in Gmail app and all I get is a blue dot and white folder icon after I click the paperclip icon, then it goes back to my drafted email like nothing happened - I don't even get a chance to see the list of files to select from. Perplexed as I've never had this issue before, I then try a few more times with the same result. Alright, I'll try uploading to Drive and inserting a file in Gmail.

    I open the Drive app and when I click '+' icon > Upload the same thing happens! Blue dot with white folder overlaid on top and it just goes back to my root Drive folders. Granted I don't attach files thru the Gmail app or upload to Drive from my phone that often so it's hard to say when this started but this is frustrating since I'd like to be able to do this for convenience or if I'm in a bind of some sort.

    I'm on the latest versions of both apps, permissions for Files and Media are enabled for both apps, cleared cache/data for both apps, force stop, soft phone reset...no change. I'm at a loss here - I'm still able to attach photos in Messages and Whatsapp so I don't think there's a hardware issue. Any other ideas what I can try short of a factory reset? TIA!

    Should I change my phone?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 10:15 PM PDT

    I have been using Redmi note 7 pro 4gb/64gb variant since march 2019. The back panel is cracked but it doesn't matter to me that much. Although I can see some glitches,but there are no noticeable bugs while using. The phone lags sometimes for a second while using chrome. I have no issues while playing games or using social apps. The phone over heats while using camera apps. I have been stopped receiving software updates since Android 10. My mom asked me this morning whether I want a new phone, and I said I'll think about it. I'd be glade if someone helps me taking the right decision.

    What would happen if I disable then enable Google Play Store?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 06:02 PM PDT

    Due to this new policy of "Gift cards can only be used in the country where they were purchased", I can't spend the $1.62 I have in my account.

    I was told that disabling Play Store would allow me to make the transaction.

    If I do that, when I enable it back, will everything work as usual? Also, will i lose my Play Points?

    Can't use photo and video together in Instagram carousel (android 10)

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 02:51 PM PDT

    Please let me know if out of place in this sub.

    So I'm trying to post a photo and a video. Individually everything works fine. But when I select both to add them in a carousel I get the following error.

    "Can't continue editing. Sorry, there was a problem editing your photo. A report has been sent to Instagram."

    Can't really find anything about this online. If anyone knows how to fix this or what causes it please let me know.


    I'm on Android 10, EMUI11. Using the latest IG version (30 July 2021).

    Find my device help

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 08:18 PM PDT

    My phone was stolen. I suspect I know who stole it. They most likely removed my accounts from the phone though so find my device is not working. They're also aware of turning off location. However, I have the email address of someone who is probably logged in on it. Is there no way to use this to help find the phone? If not that's kind of baffling.

    Looking to buy a new flagship in the next month or two

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 04:10 PM PDT

    I have a OnePlus 8T. I got it for free with my OnePlus 7T trade in. It's not a bad phone by any means, but it's too similar to my 7T.

    Can someone please recommend a phone with the following?

    Need:

    CPU: SD 870 or better

    8GB RAM or better

    Battery to get me through at least a full day

    Stereo speakers (use of the ear piece is fine)

    At least 90hz screen

    Great camera. on par with iphone/s21 or better.

    Nice to have:

    Wireless charging

    2k resolution screen

    Interesting design

    Budget: $1,000 I'd prefer not to spend more than $800 if possible.

    The big factor for me is the camera. I like to take a lot of pictures and OnePlus is disappointing. I had Nokia and Huawei phones that take a lot better photos.

    I'd go with Huawei again but I'm in the US...

    Is there a web browser that lets you watch videos while on a phone call?

    Posted: 30 Jul 2021 01:58 PM PDT

    I've seen people say that Chrome takes advantage of android API to audio focus and stop you from watching videos while on a phone call. Love Firefox but it seems to have the same issue.

    Is there any web browser on Android that doesn't have this issue? Or a different phone app or something?

    (Long time iOS user) Although most Android phones don't get the next 5 OS updates, do they get slower with the one they do have, like with iPhones? Is it okay to be stuck with, say, Android 9 when 12 is coming out?
