    Blocking text messages based on what's in the message?

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 06:54 PM PDT

    I have a Galaxy S20 FE, running Android 11. I get this recurring spam text message from all different numbers, and it includes a unique word in each message. I've seen that older versions used to allow you to block messages containing certain text, is there a way to do it now?

    Nonresponsive touchscreen/need access to phone - HELP!!

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 04:43 PM PDT

    hi yall

    apologies for formatting etc etc.. i could really use some advice!!

    I have a HTC U11, great phone but very old...and today, my screen decided to stop responding completely. it still seems to 'know' i am touching it, but the screen will not respond to ANY commands (vol/on/off buttons still working, as is the thumbprint button but i cannot get it to reset) - I am trying to tell it to 'open text messages' etc via OK google but it wants permission, and the same thing when i try to USB it into my PC....

    Is there a way out of this?? I just need to get 'in'!!

    How can I make a Child account an adult account?

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 05:51 AM PDT

    Hi, my cousin though it was funny to make my account a child account by setting it to 5 years old. I live in germany btw. I already tried setting the age of my account to turning 16 the next day (it doesn't let me set the age to 16 immediately) and waited a day but it's still a child account.

    Phone sent a random text, now I think I'm hacked.

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 10:10 PM PDT

    A couple days ago I installed a less than reputable app, and noticed that my phone sent a random sms text that I did not personally send. It was a very strange text starting with sk2#, followed by many numbers then ending with @X@hello. Ever since then I've been getting verification/security codes sent to me for several different accounts, many that I've never even had. I've since changed all important passwords, and changed away from 2fa to a key where possible. I've also done a factory reset on my phone. But these verification code texts are still occasionally coming in. I know this is my own fault, but should I be ok now, or did I somehow get my sms hijacked?

    17gb of system storage on new phone

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 09:04 PM PDT

    I had to get a new phone that only had 32gb storage but more than half is being used by the system. Is that right? Seems like a scam to say 32 gb then only get less than half.

    S8 keyboard keeps coming up in messaging app when swiping up for navigation.

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 05:08 PM PDT

    Every time I swipe up on the messaging app to go back the keyboard pops up I then press the back button which dismisses the keyboard, The only way for me to go back is to quickly double tap the back button. Is there any way to stop the keyboard from coming up when I swipe up for the navigation bar?

    Issues casting audio from Pixel 4a 5G on Android 12 Beta 3.

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 07:04 PM PDT

    Strange. In any castable app, I see both my Chromecast devices as castable.

    I have three Google Home Devices (Nest Mini, Home Mini, Google Home) and none of them are available as cast destinations.

    I can use them just fine with voice control. Can ask them to play music and it works without a problem.

    I tried switching to my 2.4Ghz and 5GHz SSID's, but still have the same issue.

    Another interesting thing to note, if music is playing on one of these devices and I open the Google Home app on my phone to skip a song or adjust the volume, I see "Not available. Can't see X speaker on this Wi-Fi network."

    Again, this message will appear on BOTH my SSID's from the same router. I can still play music via voice control.

    My Pixel 4a 5G is running SPB3.210618.013

    How do I see how much of my battery each app is using?

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 06:33 PM PDT

    This used to be really easy but navigating my phone after the past two years of updates has turned into blindly running through a fucking labyrinth. No amount of Googling is helping me and my blood pressure is rising. It used to be as simple as typing "Battery Usage" in the search bar.

    The tile app keeps asking me for location access which means there's some sort of background thread even though the app isn't running

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 09:56 AM PDT

    The tile app keeps asking me for location access which means there's some sort of background thread even though the app isn't running. I've always wondered about this actually. There's always a bunch of crap running in the background even if the app is sleeping. How do I fully disabe background jobs

    I had an emergency that required me to call 911 over 12 hours ago. Ever since, I have had an "Emergency Location Request" notification on my phone. I can't seem to get rid of it. Help?

    Not going to get into why I called 911, but I did, and this notification has now been here for 12+ hours. I have a Samsung A11.

    Battery Percentage shows 0%

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:51 PM PDT

    On the top right of my phone the battery percentage is constantly 0% but when I go into the settings it shows the correct amount. This started a few days ago and it originally said 100% but after a restart it said 0%. Originally it was with Android beta 2 but now I'm in beta 3 and I was expecting it to maybe get fixed but it was not. I looked it up and people have had this issue in the past, back with Android 7 and 8. They changed updates and it persisted. I'm not sure what to do. It's quite irritating that if I want to know my battery percentage, I have to go into settings. I'm on a pixel 3a. Should I just upgrade to the 4a or is there a way to fix this?

    Flash rom to door dash tablet using ODIN

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:50 PM PDT

    So I flashed a rom to a tablet I bought, turns out it had door dash on it. When I get back to the "setting up..." Screen it said something about mobicontrol STILL being on the tablet even though I flashed it with Odin. What am I doing wrong?

    Trying to factory reset through power+volume up doesn't work cause it says the mdm doesn't allow it. And trying to reset through failing the password doesn't work either.

    How can I fix this? Thanks!

    How do I recover data from broken phone and copy to new one?

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:40 PM PDT

    I have a Pixel 3a with a broken screen (dropped), the screen is black with no visual display but as far as I can tell the phone is working. I could receive calls by swiping up and I get a little vibrate when the fingerprint sensor is touched. I also have a new Pixel 4a and want to restore from the broken Pixel 3a on to the 4a. What are my options for recovering the data form the 3a? - ADB debugging wasn't enabled. - The initialization setup of the 4a has the option to copy from another phone (the 3a) by connecting via usb but I think I have to accept something on the 3a and can't see where to tap/swipe. - There was another option to restore from a backup of the 3a but this also requires me to accept something on the 3a. - Skipping the copy option and following the 4a setup with the same google account resulted in a none of my apps etc being restored. Some photos available in the Photo app but are out of date since 28 June. - Connecting the 3a to my laptop doesn't show a drive. Thank you for any thoughts on how I can get access to the data on the 3a.

    Update Ok I've managed to find the backup from the Pixel 3a - Google Drive > Storage > Backup, dated from yesterday. But Im unsure how/if I can restore this to the Pixel 4a phone.

    Is it possible to install GApps in the Work Profile?

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:26 PM PDT

    Hey,

    Using Insular or Shelter (to enable the Work Profile), is it possible to install GApps on the Work Profile and pass SafetyNet there? If yes, how?

    I don't mind installing Google Services if I can keep them frozen constantly :P

    In case it matters, I enabled Magisk and I use LineageOS with MicroG.

    Many thanks to whoever helps! :)

    How to check/change mobile Hotspot password? (Samsung Galaxy A32 5G)

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 02:15 PM PDT

    I recently got a new phone because the old one broke... it was an A20, now I have an A32 5G. I was trying to get my friend connected to my mobile hotspot so he could download something faster, but he needed to put in the password and I forgot it completely. Not only that, but I dont know where in the Settings menu I can reset it.

    I checked the "Settings > Connections > Mobile Hotspot and Tethering" but the only thing it lets me do is toggle my mobile hotspot off/on. Where do I go to actually change the mobile hotspot password?

    I can't use my tablet anymore

    Posted: 14 Jul 2021 10:08 AM PDT

    I'm not so sure this is the right subreddit to ask this but i have a Myria Giant (a romanian brand) tablet from 2018 with a broken digitizer but this isn't the point. I wanted to use it again as a secondary device so i bought a mouse for it because the lower part of the screen is completely unresponsive. I typed the pin password 0000 (i had a simple pin because i didn't plan on using it anymore back then) and it said it's not correct. I tried about 30 other possible passwords and none it working. After that i tried using droidkit but it's based on a subscription, wondershare dr. fone but it needs usb debugging to be activated which isn't. I also tried ADB but i think it also needs usb debugging. Finally i tried to give it a hard reset but here comes the worst part, i can't get it in recovery mode because every button comination i tried makes it boot as usual. I looked on the producer's site but there is no info about factory reset at all and the same is in the instruction manual. Any ideas to what i could do?

    Forgot to say i don't remember the gmail adress with which i'm connected on it so i can't use android device manager to give it a factory reset
