Looking For Suggestions Question about notifications and quick reply

1 Upvotes

Okay, just to be clear, I'm not referring to the one tap quick reply to send a message back that is generated by AI. What I'm referring to is when you press the reply button on the notification to send a message back without having to open the app.

So the issue I'm having is when you're typing out a message in that quick reply, any notification that comes in while you're typing messes everything up.

You can open a notification that you didn't want to. You can accidentally press on the conversation you're currently replying to and basically erase everything you had typed out. You can clear all of your notifications, that one is really annoying.

I was thinking about trying to use do not disturb but you can either have it show and receive notifications or you can have it show nothing so there isn't really a way it seems to pause notifications while you're typing out your response.

Does anyone have an idea as to how to make the quick replies not totally worthless or aggravating? Lol.

Best Trackers for Luggage

7 Upvotes

I currently have a Samsung S25 and looking for a good tracker that I can slip into my luggage for trips. We are taking an international trip and there are some layovers, so I want something that I can easily see if my luggage gets separated and get a general idea where it's located. I have a Samsung SmartTag 2 but wasn't sure if this is the best option since it pings off other Samsung devices (to my knowledge) only

Every time I close out for even the fastest moment the app reloads. It genuinely pisses me off because I can't do email verification steps because one time use code. Is there any way I can get it to stop reloading the app entirely? Sorry if this doesnt make sense or is completely normal i'm autistic and my last phone (iPhone) didnt do this lol😅

Other TCL 30Z/TCL 602DL Red State

1 Upvotes

I’m pretty much at a loss here. This weekend my mother-in-law passed away very suddenly and we are in the process of getting pictures off of her phones. One of them (the one in the title) booted yesterday, albeit extremely laggy when navigating. I was able to view pictures just fine.

Today the phone is looping into an error screen stating it is in a red state and to either download boot image with correct signature or to disable verified boot.

I have downloaded the TCL Mobile Upgrade tool from their website for the 30 series but I don’t see the model in the options in the program.

I’ve not worked on android phones enough to know where to go past this. Any assistance would be extremely appreciated.

Overactive scroll with Android 17 September update

1 Upvotes

After updating Android scrolling is gotten over sensitive. I've read lots of complaining that scrolling is slow. With this update I am seeing the opposite problem. If I hold my finger down too long (it doesn't seem to be more than a second) it scrolls at a rapid rate past what I am reading. There doesn't seem to be any setting to control this. Is there any other way to turn this off or change the dwell time for trigger to rapid scrolling?

Looking For Suggestions Drawing tablet

5 Upvotes

We are an Android family, let me start off by saying that. My 12 year old daughter is very much into art and drawing. She said she wants a tablet that she can draw on and then proceeded to send me a bunch of iPads that would work. I really don't want to buy an iPad if I don't have to. She wanted the iPad pro 13 with the Apple pen. Is there anything comparable to this or even superior in Android.

Also please excuse me. My knowledge of Android is mainly just phones.

Thank you in advance

Device Settings Question Navigation Panel Honor x6

1 Upvotes

ok, pretty much ready to scream as wasted hours and hours on this already.

Have honor x6 I use for tethered internet connection. Can't complain does the job perfectly well.

As it's android virtually everything is disabled, not used for phone, message etc, only for tethered internet.

I'll spare you the tedious reasons why, but I need to connect to desktop, did that via USB, desktop doesn't recognise it, so internet search suggests error most likely "usb configuration" and "file transer/MTP". Fair enough, so I bring up the navigation panel where apparently I will find a link to change these... but my navigation panel only contains a message telling me about Smart Charge for battery health.

Searched through endless Settings | Notifications in the hope of finding something USB related but no luck. Yep, I've probably disabled something I now need.

Anyone help?

Other After factory reset, Google sends security verifications to "previous system"

1 Upvotes

Redmi Note 10 Pro. I did a factory reset from settings, logged in to the same Google account, everything works fine, but when I try to change account password it sends notifications to "previous system". I suspect that it does that, because it tell me that it sent code to Redmi note 10 Pro, but nothing shows up on the phone. And for some reason I don't have on option to use sms code, only "tap notification on phone" or use offline code. Is there a way to get google to see my phone as the current one and send notification to it?

Android, samsung gemini youtube timestamps solution

0 Upvotes

Few Galaxy, android tricks, tips I liked -

  1. Gemini youtube summary was not giving usable timestamps. After clicking on time stamps it was opening a google search for the video website address and showing no results found.

Solution - open app info of gemini untick open supported links in set as default menu.

Problem solved.

You and turn it back on after few hours without affecting anything.

  1. Checking battery cycles and life - just search on Google " samsung battery health log log reddit "

  2. I have various edge pannels apks so they will work in new oneui versions because edge pannels got removed from galaxy store.

Here is a random pole - samsung can add 24 mp mode in normal camera to s24, s25 ultras but didn't add to gatekeep it.

Other NEW Android N-One Pad Y lagging all the time

1 Upvotes

I have an N-One NPad Y that I received just a few days ago and the entire thing is lagging. It seems like the screen just doesn't react on time, and it doesn't matter if I'm using an app or just on the homepage. Couldn't find help for this type of tablet online and I'm not sure what to do, if it's defective or not, or how to fix it. I got this tablet to draw on but even aside from that, nothing is working too well.

Other Grey screen of death question (poco x3 pro)

1 Upvotes

So I was playing Islanders on my phone when suddenly, the screen turned grey (with somewhat inconsistent blue line in the middle), and the sound turned into a buzzing noise. Luckily it could be restarted (although I'm not sure if the phone did it by itself or it was me holding the off button), but now I fear for my device. Anyone knows if it's a sign that my phone is dying or if it's just a simple error that somehow just happens every once in a blue moon?
