    Help Force controller support

    There's a game series that I want to play (Dragon Quest), but they offer 0 controller support. I couldn't find anything on Google about forcing and mapping controller support. Is there another app I could use to do so without rooting the phone? I've been out of the rooting scene for almost a decade.

    Root Android 9 / Root

    I want to turn my old Tab s3 into a dedicated server. However, it appears I need to root it first. I tried googling it, but couldn't find anything. Is there an easy way to root the s3 once it is on Pie? I haven't rooted a device in a couple years, and only used one click roots.

    Netflix keeps freezing the video on me while the audio keeps going. This occurs on WiFi, and is the only app to have this problem.

    Accessories Adjustable Display Cover

    I was having battery problems, so I bought a Zerolemon battery case. It's nice, but doesn't cover the screen at all. Does anyone know of an adjustable hard cover or something to fit over the screen? I don't like leaving it unprotected, but couldn't find anything on google.

    Force app to use s pen

    Is there a way to force an app to use the S Pen? I thought it was supposed to simulate a finger, and I use a picross app that would be much easier to do with a thinner "finger".

    S7 Edge or Note 7?

    So, I popped over to T-Mobile today to switch from Verizon. They didn't have the Note 7, of course, given the recall. So, I got an S7 Edge. However, they told me that, given the circumstance, I could most likely switch over to the Note 7 once it comes out again. How is the Note 7? Is it better...

    Realistic Minecraft?

    I'm looking for a game where you mine by actually mining, and craft stuff. Similar to Minecraft, but not with blocks. Like you actually mine and chop trees, not just smash blocks. Does this exist?
