    Locked Phone

    I have an S20 FE that I just got working a few days ago. I thought a screen lock was a good idea. WRONG! I decided on a pattern lock. I made 9 dots on a paper and drew the pattern. Held the phone up to the pattern and it was 100% the same as on my paper. So I entered it in the phone and...

    Root Galaxy

    Recently received a Samsung Galaxy Sky SM-S320VL(2016) and have searched many sites for exact detailed information on rooting this phone. Some state it can not be done. Others have information that leaves out too much information for me to consider it safe. Does anyone have detailed info on...

    Insufficient storage available

    When installing an app from the play store or updating I am getting the error in the title above. I thought I read somewhere this may be due to a setting in SuperSU Pro. I am not sure about this at all. I have 152 Mb storage available in the phone, so that is not the problem. Any ideas on...

    Charging slowed to a crawl?

    My Hisense 7" tablet has charged from 22-25 up to full or 100 in about 3 hours ever since I bought it in June. The back was warm when charging. Well, today it decided to slow to a crawl. In 5 hours today it has charged from 20 to 24 on a 0 to 100 scale. Back is very cool. Charger was checked on...

    Copy an App?

    Can you copy an app installed from the play store from a phone to a tablet? I ask this because the current version of the app on the store does not work and the older one on my phone does. So I want the working one on the tablet.

    Move to SD...or is it?

    On my rooted Huawei Y300, I have Link2SD installed for moving apps to the SD card. The program shows the apps, allows you to move them, states the app you picked to move was moved, but, any file manager does not show the app on the SD card. I also do not see any space open on the phone where...

    Compatable with your device

    After finding an app in play store on my laptop, under the "install" word it states: "This app is compatible with all of your devices." Click on those words and your devices are displayed. Well, sort of. My tablet shows, a phone I don't use shows, and one I do use does not show. I have dug...

    Titanium Backup Encryption

    Reading a blog from 2012 about using Google Drive and what they can do with your data, if it still applies, makes one want to be sure Titanium Backup's are encrypted. TB has on the menu a place to check for encryption of your BU but I do not see where you can encrypt with your own special "key."...

    I need a math wizzard

    I need a math wizard. There are a lot of smart people here so I thought it would be a place to ask. Nothing to do with Android so to keep from plugging up the forum if one could PM me I have a problem for you.

    Unlock a cheap GoPhone?

    No cheap GoPhone area in the phones forums so.... I found a website that after you enter some info about your phone they sell you the unlock code for that phone. I'm not cheap just poor, so I was interested in a less costly way(free?)to unlock a $17.00 AT&T GoPhone. Is that possible or is it...

    Lost Phone

    I was using "Where's My Droid" for some time now. It recently just won't work anymore. Any suggestions on a replacement that you don't need a second phone to send messages to the phone? Something like "where's" that had a place to log into from a laptop or desktop.

    How is it done?

    I looked all over for what appeared to be the best location for this thread and ended up here. Move if it should go elsewhere. . You have a word document you need to change a date in the doc. So you go to your laptop or desktop, open word, load the file, change the date, save and close...

    A New Phone

    So if you were looking for a new Android phone that was unlocked and under $200.00 that has at least a 4-1/2" (115mm) screen and lots of memory, what would you look at? And has at least 4.1.1 on it.

    From 2.3 to 4.1?

    If and I mean IF a sort of unknown android phone with 2.3 on it could be rooted and you wanted 4.1 on this phone, where do you get 4.1 from? All I know about getting updates were from your service provider whenever one showed up.

    Rooted?

    Both connectBot and Root Checker show my phone rooting process was a success. I thought a rooted phone allowed you to remove anything from the phone. Allows you to remove junk you do not want. If that is correct, why can't I remove the junk or unwanted programs?

    Phone not correct version, but is?

    An app states phone requires Android 4.1.1. Phone info states os is 4.1.1. But the app is listed in Google play as not compatible with your phone. What "other" things prevent an app from working in a phone?

    Root Rooting

    I know one answer here would be to go get a more popular phone and there would be more information on how to get the phone rooted, but the money tree does not have any leaves on that this time, so a different phone is not the answer. I am tired and have been on so much "junk" on my phone that...

    "Power Pack" ?

    The back on my old Huawei was simple to remove, replace the battery, and replace the back. On my new one it has little "hooks" that hold it in place. It is scary every time I open it. Makes me think it is going to break. With this in mind, I was thinking about a battery pack or a power...

    In a recent thread on the best backup app, DragonSlayer95 stated mybackup is the next best thing for non rooted users. Also stated mybackup can not backup an apps data. My question is why it cannot? . I discovered this when I changed phones. . PT

Tap that and "please enter PIN2" is displayed. Don't want to go beyond that because I don't know what this app is. Anyone know...

Distorted pictures, cannot see all the settings menu, part of the display is "off the screen." Many, many complaints about this bad upgrade. Company has done nothing...
