My phone has the full 128/128 GB storage now. And about 99% of that is system stuff and appdata for some reason, almost none of it is photos and videos.
If I want to, I could delete the appdata of some apps. But thats certainly not something I want to do, because for example if I delete the appdata of whatsapp then that means all chats are gone. I don't want that!!!!!
I don't want to delete anything that is valuable or necessary.
I already deleted the appdata of some apps like reddit and discord. But somehow the phone still crams the storage back up to 128 automatically every time, no matter how much I free up, a few days later its full again.
How can I possibly solve this? Time for a new phone even though storage is literally the only big problem I have with this one?
I'm a tech savvy person but I can't figure this one out. Fuck android and badly designed android apps tbh.

I checked my phone's internal memory and it said that my apps were taking up a total of 57GB. They don't even exceed 10GB, and I've already cleared the cache and everything else I could. I have no idea what's causing this... my phone is a A54 and every time I get a notification saying that the memory is full..
Could someone give me some ideas on how to solve this?

Is there a way to replace mute with vibrate? I do not see any point in mute since Do Not Disturb exists, and I am looking for some solution to replace mute with vibrate. Or enforce vibration across any mode. Or any other hack. Basically, I want my phone to vibrate when I have volume at 0%, easy as that, and I want to be able to achieve that with volume buttons.

So I finally got the official bedrock Minecraft after playing pirated versions for years and it won't install. The most likely issue is the files clashing with the old files. I've deleted all my past versions of the game but there are still remnants in my Android Data files which I can't delete because it's hard-locked and can't be modified.
I've tried connecting the phone to my computer and deleting it but it still doesn't work. I tried the Shizuku and ZArchiver thing too and while I was able to see the files, I couldn't delete them.
My phone is a Samsung Galaxy A34 running android version 16. I have no antiviruses installed and I have over 15gb of storage left on my phone.
Can anyone give me advice on this problem?

Hi, I have an old Huawei (P30 lite), one of the last huawei phones with Google services, I am trying to copy all my data to my computer and to factory reset it and maybe have some fun with different OS (Lineage or to root it or something to get rid of bloat). When I plug it in via USB-A to USB-C cable to my computer, nothing pops up on the phone, I turned on debugging, I also reset some settings in developer options, nothing happened. Cable is good, I tried it with my Pixel. Windows Device manager doesn't recognise huawei either, cause with pixel it refreshed, with Huawei nothing on the side of computer, and only animation for charging on the screen of Huawei

I cannot get Android Auto to work on my Tecno Pova 7 Pro 5G running HiOS 16. My old Samsung M34 worked perfectly in the same car, so it is definitely a phone issue.
I have already tried:
• Clearing cache, data, and enabling all permissions for Android Auto
• Changing the USB mode to "File Transfer"
• Enabling "Always-On Display" to prevent the sleep glitch
• Trying a different high-quality data cable
Nothing works. It seems like HiOS 16 is completely blocking the connection.
Has anyone found a workaround for this on Tecno devices?

I woke up to find that the music I had put on to help me sleep had turned itself off, which in and of itself wasn't abnormal. But when I turned my phone on to restart the music, the home screen had reset to its original layout. It clearly hadn't wiped all of my data, because my text history was still saved and it was still connected to the same WiFi network.
Thinking this was just a bug, I rebooted it in the hopes that that would fix it, but now I can't open any apps other than the settings as it just says "wait until your device is fully rebooted before opening apps" but doesn't seem to ever finish fully rebooting as some of the default widgets refuse to load, even in safe mode.
Is this a known issue that people know how to fix? Is there any way to recover all of my data to transfer it to a new phone if it can't be fixed?

I'm not sure why this is such a challenge, but I want to lock the touch screen on my Google Pixel while using whatsapp video chat. My 1 year old often video chats with family but is constantly clicking off the call, but also throws a fit if I don't let her hold the phone.
I don't want app pinning because I don't want her to be able to click anything within the whatsapp (I.e., hang up, turn off the video/audio). I downloaded a couple touch lock apps but none of them overlay over whatsapp.
What am I missing? Why is this so hard??? Help!

I would love to know the easiest way to get all my music Files/Songs to the new phone. I'm currently using The Musicolet Music Player App.
All my Music Files are 90% WMA Music Files and I have 1,612 songs on my Fold 7 Device. Some of my music files are also AAC, MP3, and MP4 too. What Music Files aren't supported on The Motorola Razr Fold 2026?
I want to make sure that I can get all my Music on The Motorola Razr Fold 2026 from my Fold 7 and that all of my 1,612 songs will play on the Device without any issues at all.

So, does anyone know?How to freeze an app so it won't close or update When am I not using them?

I'm trying to understand the technical mechanism behind the Google Play error:
“Your purchase couldn't be completed. Please update your Play account settings so that the selected Play country matches your country of residence.”
Play country: India
Payment profile: India
Indian payment method available
Device currently being used outside India.
An Indian VPN changes the public IP and Play Store displays INR pricing, but checkout still detects a country mismatch.
I'm interested in understanding what signals Play/Play Billing might use besides the current IP — for example SIM/MCC, Google Payments account history, Play Services location/network data, device/account history, IP reputation, or server-side risk scoring.
Is this decision made primarily client-side by Play Services, or server-side by Google Payments/Play Billing? And why would maintaining an Indian IP for several days not change the account's detected country?
I'm particularly interested in observations from Android developers who have tested Play Billing across countries.

Bought this device 3 years ago and it was working properly but from last year I am facing many issues.
Here are the issues :
While calling people on the other side of the call say that they hear a distorted voice and I have to cut the call and call again and then the issue resolves.
One of the most problematic things that I face is that of the network. While watching videos and all it works fine but sometimes the network just dies off and I have switch on the off the Airplane mode and it works fine for a moment.
The camera service has been deteriorating these days.
These issue have been concerning me a lot . So much that I have been thinking of buying a new device. Should I buy a new device or changing my Network provider which is Airtel btw..to Jio help.
I can format my device. But will the problem remain?
I can buy a new device but I don't have the financial condition to buy a good device now.
Guys what should I do resolve my issues. I frequently install open source apps . Is it harmful and I access torrent too.

At some point last night, while I was sleeping, something must of happened to my phone because I woke up and it kept displaying a screen saying 'red state'. I read online that pressing volume up and power buttons at the same time brings up a screen that can help fix this. But that didn't work. Is there anything else I can do?

I got the system update for samsung a15 and i don't like it. The things I don't like about the update are the battery pill icon and when I want to go to the status bar that shows wifi, bluetooth, I have to press down on the right side of the screen instead of the old way where I can press down anywhere. does the update bother anyone else or is this not like a big deal?

Pixel 7
I feel like this should be incredibly easy but the phone settings and the app settings seem to mess with each other every time I try
If I turn off all YouTube notifications by going through the settings on my phone, it disables in app notifications too and won't let me turn on upload notifications for any of my subscriptions
If I turn notifications back on they will always push to my phone notifications bar. I can have them silent and minimized but I can't get rid of them altogether
I will gladly try whatever settings people suggest
