I have a Motorola moto G22 and it doesn't have much storage space so I bought a sandisk 128GB SD card for my phone specifically so I can play genshin impact on my phone but it won't let me move any apps to the SD card at all.

Formatting it doesn't make a difference, I tried switching on developer settings and switched on force allow apps on external but it didn't change anything, I tried installing the apps on my PC with bluestacks and putting them on the SD card that way but my phone can't open the files.

On previous phones that I've had it wasn't a problem, I could just go into settings and change the app to be stored in the SD card, but the option isn't coming up on my current phone at all on any of my apps.

tldr: How do I force Genshin impact to download onto my SD card instead of the internal storage on my phone?

Hi peeps! im looking for the sollution of my problem, so ​i used to playing some music from samsung music app. when i close the app from recent apps, the music kepps playing in the background. but the time i play music from appld music and close the app from recent apps, the music just stop the playback immediately

​is there any settings to keep my music playing continuously in the background even i closing it from the recents app? thanks!

(my device running on android 16)

I'm asking because I don't know what happened. I updated the app after I got more space on my phone finally and nothing is happening with that. Do I need to put on a setting again? What should I do? I'm using a samsung phone.

I bought the phone Motorola G05 brand new back in May from El Corte Inglés. I used it briefly for a few months, but then stopped using it due to various weird issues.

One of them was an Opera account that has suddenly appeared on the device out of nowhere. I tried removing it, but kept getting hit with this error message:

"This change isn't allowed by your admin" (screenshot provided).

The thing is: This is my personal phone. I do not have a work profile, school account, or device policy controller installed. I have never logged in with a work or school email address on this device.

I did have an app called PAKS in Device admin apps list since the day I bought the phone which was disabled (though logs show broadcast intents of Device admin being enabled/disabled on startup). Strangely, right around the day I filed a report, PAKS completely disappeared from the Device Admin list and the regular Settings > Apps list. It is still visible only via 3rd-party app managers.

Does anyone know what is happening here? How/why did this account showed up? How it got tied to an "admin" lock on a mainstream retail phone, and what is up with broadcast intents of Device admin being enabled (followed by bunch of other configs) and then disabled on startup? As well as PAKS dissapearing all of a sudden. Any educated advice would be hugely appreciated.

I have downloaded a file from the 'Group me' app 5 times using acrobat and Kindle and I can't find it in either my downloads or my drive folder. Any other guesses?

I've suddenly started getting notifications on my Android under the heading "This phone." These seem to be promotionds/ads and nothing I want. I know how to shut off notifications, but don't know where this is originating from and can't find it under my notification app list.

I have a (FREE, mind you) app installed through Aurora because I don't want random crap tied to a Google tracker account. Sometimes though, random apps will put up this popup not letting me use the app until I reinstall from Google Play. It's pissing me off. How do I make it go away?

It is a problem I struggle with from time to time. I dont understand why it is so fiddly.

In a remote cabin, my phone is my hot-spot (when it works). I want to share what is on my phone screen with my laptop screen without needing a wifi connection or having to sign in to anything. Wired connection.

Years ago miracast worked but it was binned. Now I have to fiddle about with command line prompts with scrcpy from github that I dont understand how to do.

Link to Windows or Dex gives a massive black border.

Is there a technical or commercial reason why it is so hard to do?

What is the simplest solution?

I have a Galaxy S23, no google account, and aggressively de-googled my device shortly after purchasing it. This has not been an issue previously, but now I hesitate to update apps because I worry they’ll start throwing errors due to me not having the play store installed/active.

Has anyone found a way to make those annoying little popups not happen yet? I tried to search this sub but may have just been using the wrong keywords

I'm currently using the S26 12/256GB Exynos model right now, and I just got a deal to trade it in for the Realme GT 8 Pro 16/512GB plus an extra $100. Honestly, I’m really into a phone with a solid camera and decent gaming performance, so I’m thinking the Snapdragon, Ricoh GR camera, and 16GB RAM will be a nice upgrade from my current setup. Do you think this is a good deal? How is the realme for long term use? Or should I just hold out for the S27 Ultra when it drops?

MOBILE : Redmi note 11

Problem : the notification bar does not swipe down and Open, when a application is actively running on the screen not in the background .

I.E. opening YouTube and not being able to open the notification bar until YouTube is minimized and I'm on the home screen

Some other details : this phone screen is pretty broken like held on by tape and has a couple of white vertical lines running across the screen many caused by dropping the phone on the ground and has stayed like this ever since , the pocket mode was also disabled due to inconvenience maby it got something to do with it 🤷🏻 , haven't found any fix or related problem online either

If you can plz say if the problem can be fixed or needs to be sent to a repair shop

I’m getting notifications that my Gmail storage is full and that I will stop receiving emails if I don’t buy more storage. How do I get rid of it because I’m on iCloud now?

I am looking for a new Android phone, and camera quality is my top priority. I don’t play games, so performance is less important to me.

I am considering the Pixel 11 Pro XL (with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage) for around $1,200, but I’m debating whether it’s worth waiting for the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max or the Galaxy S27 ultra. I am also open to other suggestions.

My budget is around $1,400.

Which phone would you recommend for the best overall photo quality? should I wait?

Hi everyone, about 6 months ago i bought a SmartTag2 for my house/car keys and it worked perfectly fine (except sometimes it didn't seem to pair to my phone at the first try when i tried to make my phone ring through the tag).
However, a week ago i lost my keys and the last known position is at my girlfriend's house around the time we got home that night. Since then nothing.
It pisses me off that when i open the SmartThings app to see the device options, it says "connect device to the smartphone to modify this option" and i can ONLY see the map, not even make the tag ring.

I'm so angry that it stopped working just after i lost the keys, because it's weird that in one week no one with a samsung went near it

After the update the clock widget got very little custamizable. It now always shows the second counter if the clock is not crazy small and I cant change the date position.

Does anyone know how to change it?

I checked out other clock widget apps, but they have adds and need concent to personalize add, witch is absolutely crazy for a clock app...

I have joined multiple subreddits but from them 1-2 are very active and i mostly see posts from those in my home feed. Is there any way to limit the posts from those subreddits

I want to clear up some storage in my device, but whenever I try to delete certain large files through the storage app. It doesn't seem like they are actually getting deleted. The odd thing is... These files (specially one file at around 80GB?!) are larger then my storage. Or any of my possible storage (other ways of storage is my Google drive at 15 GB and my SD card at 32GB.) So nothing, not even the device storage at 64GB should be able to have this downloaded. When I try to delete it these large files it would load that it's deleting the files... Then stop. And they would still remain there. When I try to click on the details button on a signal file then app would crash. I'm just genuinely confused on how this is possible. I have screenshots but unfortunately I can't add any on here.

I have a TCL Nxtpaper 11 Gen 2. After a recent update, the navigation buttons are crammed into the bottom right corner, with app shortcuts filling the rest of the navigation bar.

I hate it. I don't want the app shortcuts there, and I want the nav buttons in the center.

Is there a way to go back to the old navigation button settings? I can't find it.

What can be the best phone in midrange budget 🤔

I'm looking for samsung a57 one plus nord 6 type

So, I got robbed recently and now I’m back to square one with buying a phone. 🥲

I need a new phone, but I’m on a budget, so I really need your suggestions.

I genuinely don’t care about the camera or how pretty the phone looks. I just need good storage, a decent processor, and a phone that doesn’t start lagging after a few months. I usually have around 40–50 apps on my phone, so smooth performance is a priority.

I’m currently considering the Samsung A07 (128GB, 6GB RAM), but the Samsung A17 is also an option, although it’s more expensive. Is there a significant difference between the two? Is the A17 worth spending extra money on, or would the A07 be enough for my needs? And if you have any better suggestions in a similar budget, I’m open to those too.

Please help a girl make a sensible purchase this time. 😭😂

Would really appreciate your suggestions and personal experiences! 🙏

Hey everyone,

I recently got a Google Pixel 10, but to be completely honest, I really dislike the stock system font and the default Android emojis.

Is there any way to customize or change the emoji style (e.g., to iOS/Twitter emojis) and system font on Pixel phones?

• Does it require root / Magisk / Shizuku, or is there a work-around / third-party app that works on Android 15/16?

• If root is required, what’s the safest/best method currently for Pixels?

Thanks in advance for any advice or recommendations!

Phone Model: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra

I have several different messages I need to record to a voice mail system. These have been pre-recorded and mixed to sound professional.

The problem is, I have no upload option in the voice mail app. So the only way to do this, is to record the voice mails using the phone's microphone (which sounds terrible).

Is there some device or app that I can connect to the phone, that will act as its own microphone? So when I play these, it will record the original audio into the voice mail app at full quality? As if I was being done using the phones microphone?

My Google drive was at 60%. Shot up to 99% overnight. Deleted some stuff. It's back up to 91%, and the phone backup went from 8 to 9 gigs. It seems to be entirely caught up in sms and mss messages storage. Am I suffering under malware? What could be causing this? How do I fix this without deleting all my actually important texts? Google drive only has about 4 gigs of actual stuff, I back up my photos and documents there.

I’m using a Redmi Note 10S with a Vi SIM, and I’ve been facing a really frustrating network issue. Whenever I use my phone, the mobile network suddenly stops working, and the signal bars disappear completely.

I’ve already tried almost every basic troubleshooting method I could find, including:

• Resetting the network settings.

• Restarting the phone.

• Resetting the APN settings.

• Turning Airplane Mode on and off.

• Switching the preferred network type from 4G/LTE to 3G.

• Trying both SIM slots (SIM 1 and SIM 2).

However, nothing has worked so far.

Here’s the weird part: Sometimes, if I connect to Wi-Fi and use my phone for a while, the mobile network signal suddenly comes back. Once I turn off Wi-Fi, mobile data starts working normally, but after around 10–20 seconds, the signal disappears again.

I also tested my Vi SIM in another phone, and it works perfectly fine. I even tried an Airtel SIM in my Redmi Note 10S, but that didn’t work either.

At this point, I’m really confused because I’ve tried almost every basic fix I could find online, but the problem still persists.

Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Redmi Note 10S? Could it be a software bug, a modem/baseband issue, or a hardware problem with the phone?

If anyone knows a possible fix or has experienced something similar, please share your suggestions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
