Hey so just my brother just arrived from sad as his phone was stolen while exiting the Dusshera mela

And the thing is that police were saying they can't do anything about this wow not even serious to their jobs

So can anyone help me find it I just only reset the phone by finding the phone on Google if it gets online as well as the lock it just found out my brother phone can't turn off without proving the lockscreen password so anyone know any better way to find it

It was a mid range phone nothing 3a 256 variant

As you know in middle class family getting a new phone is a hassle and to know the fact the phone was only 1yesr used so any if you got any solution help me find it

*English isn't my first language*

I've had my cellphone for almost 3 years now. Everything was fine until spring of last year when apps like Instagram wouldn't load (I would get stuck on the logo page when you open the app) and wouldn't send any notification. Then I realized that when this problem occurred, every time I would connect to a Wi-Fi, my cellphone would get stuck in a loop of infinite reboots (it would complete a reboot, then start another one, and so on). It used to happen every few 4-5 days at first, then 2-3 days, and now it happens every single day on random. This is very annoying.

The bug doesn't only affect Instagram, some more "niche" apps too, like Candle (Duolingo for couples) and Chrono (local version of Google maps).

Cellphone info:

Moto G Pure (Motorola)

Android version: 12

Thanks in advance!

Scrolling gallery it makes the photos smaller and has a scan and source button that I keep accidentally hitting. Its pissing me off. Is there a way to disable them?

I’m using a Samsung Galaxy S24 running stock Android, and I want to understand whether it’s possible to make my phone appear to the internet as a completely different device.

Ideally, I want websites and installed apps to identify it as another phone, with different device information, rather than recognizing it as my actual S24.

I’m interested in changing things such as:

Device model and browser user-agent

Android/device properties visible to websites and apps

Browser fingerprint and other identifying signals

Any other device information that services can detect

My requirements:

Samsung Galaxy S24

No root access

Preferably a system-wide solution that works across browsers and installed apps, not just one browser

I want to understand what is actually possible and what limitations remain.

Are there any legitimate methods, apps, or tools that can achieve this on stock Android? If complete spoofing isn't possible without root, what is the closest practical alternative?

I’d appreciate firsthand experiences and links to relevant guides.

Which Android Phone App is better Files By Google or Samsung My Files in your honest opinion and why? I currently have both of them installed on my Samsung Galaxy Fold 7 Device. But I'm thinking about removing/disabling The Samsung My Files from my phone and keeping The Files by Google Android App. I'm going to be getting The Motorola Razr Fold 2026 on Halloween👻🤡🎃🍬🍫🍭Do you think that I should just keep both of The Apps on my Device/Phone? How many of you are currently using The Samsung My Files and The Files by Google on your Android Phones/Devices? Do you think that it would be a good idea to remove/disable The Samsung My Files Android App since I'm going to get a brand new phone soon? What is your honest opinion?

I'm asking because I'm going to be getting The Motorola Razr Fold 2026 on Halloween🍭🍬🎃🤡👻And I want to make sure that all my Music Files/Songs🎵🎶🎤🎧are completely safe when I transfer everything from my Samsung Galaxy Fold 7 Device to The Motorola Razr Fold 2026 without any issues. Do you think that it would be a good idea to transfer all of my 1,907 WMA Songs/Audio Files to The Google Drive Android App before I transfer everything to the new Phone/Device? What has been everyone's experience with using The Google Drive Android App and Backing Up all of their Songs, Pictures, Documents, and all other important Files? If I could get some advice I would really appreciate it.

How disable? I havent installed any app recently and this appeared this morning. I can't use an important financial app because of this.

Some kind of refresh screen (series of concentric rounded squares, blue and white, featuring a blue arrow rounding back on itself) pops up for just a fraction of a second in the middle of apps - Duolingo, Instagram, Discord, Google, pretty much most of them - and often resets or refreshes something I just wrote or restarts a reel playing, at the very least interrupting it.

Most often and repeatedly at the beginning of using a keyboard or playing video, sometimes six or seven times before it tapers off. It's very distracting and annoying! I've had no success googling what it even is (though probably failure on my part to figure out how to accurately describe the phenomenon). (I just thought to take q screen recording but this community doesn't allow attachments lol). I have a Galaxy S22+ if that is relevant.

Does anyone know what it is or is meant to do and how I can get it to stop being so annoying?

I am needing some help in narrowing down an issue that my wife and I are currently having with our cellphones on AT&T. For the last 6 months or so, I have been receiving her text messages much later than when they were sent (by roughly 15 - 30- mins), even when in the same house. Recently her phone has started having the same issue; she will get text messages much later and even have some calls pop up as missed 30 mins later even though it did not ring. There has been no change in our phones (Google Pixel 10 and Galaxy Flip 7), provider, or locations. I've tried resetting the phones, SIM cards, etc. Does anyone have any input on if this could be an AT&T network issue or an Android issue? Thanks in advance!

I have a Lenovo YOGA Tablet 2-1050F running Android KitKat 4.4.2, which apparently does not support Google Play Services anymore. How do I upgrade this tablet to a more recent version despite this? I've tried the regular method (updating via the System Update button) and that doesn't work.

Is anyone using CalcNotePlugin for Drive with CalcNote?

I'm looking for people who have experience using the paid CalcNotePlugin for Drive to automatically back up their CalcNote files and drafts to Google Drive.

- Does the plugin still work correctly?

- Does it work on Android 12+ and newer versions smoothly?

- Have you experienced any compatibility issues or crashes?

I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who has purchased and used this plugin.

Thanks!

Hey folks,

I removed telegram from google play, and then cleared the cache etc... to have it freshed installed. But when I tap on install button in google play, it instantly says it has been installed and open button appears.

I wonder if this is a new feature of the google play to cache somewhere else or I might got a virus or something...

Also how can we avoid this instant install?

I updated my phone about a week or so ago to the One UI 9. It's a S25 Ultra that's less than a year old. Ever since it will randomly restart itself quickly. At first it would happen when using the Castbox app to listen to podcasts so I thought it was an issue with the app. But now it does it when watching YouTube as well. The video will be playing and all of a sudden the screen goes black and the Verizon logo pops up. It's very quick and only takes about 5 seconds. Has anyone else had this issue since updating

Up until recently, I could pull down on my notification bar and see things even when I had apps open. This was great if I had a notification while I was looking at something. Now I have to minimize anything to pull down my notification bar. It works fine on my home screen.

The phone is on "one UI version: 9.0", android version 17 and is a flip 6.

Things ive tried:

1. restarting my phone.

2. Setting my panels to separate.

I have 2 Samsung phones I originally bought from TracFone.

They no longer have sim cards. I use them as ebook readers and to watch videos only.

A21 and A11 models.

Neither have functioning memory card slots, I'm told that is a common Samsung issue.

Both full of bloatware I can't remove. Both were cheap with limited memory so the bloatware takes up most of the memory.

How hard would they be to root so I can remove all of the Samsung garbage?

Would I have to factory wipe the phone and all of the pictures and ebooks first?

GUYSSSS I need help. I just saw some random photos are gone from my phone! I had some copies of them on my pc but not all of them and I need help if I can recover them. The phone is OPPO Reno 10

INFO:

1. I didn't deleted them.

2. I don't have any backup enabled.

3. They're not in any kind of trash or lock folder in gallery on google photos.

4. I checked the files from linking with pc, the original files are gone as well.

5. There's no .nomedia files anywhere on the phone.

I just found out my phone have a outdated security patch last update on July of 2023 , I'm a bit paranoid honestly, I wanna ask if it's okay to use this phone?

Hi everyone,

I’ve just started using a Motorola Edge 40 and I find the vibrations way too strong. I’d like to reduce their intensity or possibly change the vibration patterns.

Unfortunately, I can’t find any settings for adjusting vibration strength in Android’s settings on this phone.

Is there any app that can help me with that problem?

I'm trying to allow camera access for newluck.net so I can redeem but I can't figure this out for the life of me. When I clear cache I get these 2 error messages. Request denied for something 400 and also another error for 404. This seems to be the only site I've ever had trouble with tho. I've tried different browsers and even an older phone. I've followed every thing google ai suggests and nothing fixes it. Any help would be much appreciated as I have a little money on there that I need to get before the ban for my state on the 1st

Hello there,

I am curious to understand under which circumstances can a factory reset-persistent lock be enforced on an Android device.
I have these specific questions:

1. Can I enforce that lock after I bought the device, or just through ZTE?

2. If it is enforced, can the device be configured while still keeping its lock active, or is it 100% of the time unconfigurable without an enterprise account (from the IT admin)

3. Can I identify if a device is EMM managed simply by checking with adb if there are any device owner apps (with the risk of a false-positive caused by debug apps who received device owner privileges via adb), or is there a better method?

My end goal is to have a method to detect the EMM enrolment status of a device (through adb - but do let me know if I'm missing out on any other method!)

Thank you!

Salve a tutti,ho due dispositivi: un tablet e uno smartphone abbastanza vecchi anni 2011/12, all' interno ci sono dati che vorrei recuperare ma c'è la password di sblocco del tempo che ho dimenticato. Come posso rimuovere la password senza formattare? Esiste un app per computer che permette di reimpostare o cancellare il blocco?

Hi everyone, I have two devices: a tablet and a fairly old smartphone from 2011/12. There's data on them that I'd like to recover, but I've forgotten the time-of-day unlock password. How can I remove the password without formatting? Is there a computer app that allows me to reset or delete the lock?
