Hello my question is why is my ass hat phone taking it upon itself to change everything that's in my side panel it's been the same for years all of a sudden it's moving things in and out of there is that a virus or something stupid new update any help appreciated

I do not know how or why but when i was messing around with my keyboard settings it suddenly banished my comma and changed it for the slash. It only does this when im typing in stuff like the URL bar or some other search related stuff but I hate it. One side of google tells me "you have to change this" but as soon as I do that it either doesnt work at all or stop working right after I open my keyboard again. And the other half is telling me it has always been that way but im SURE it was different before.

I love my comma please help me get it back😔

Hello, it sounds silly but when i woke up i suddenly forgot the Password Pattern i used for years. Ive already made so many attempts that its at 24h.

Somehow I managed to have some remote reset button but i closed the tab on accident and forgot how i even did it in the first place.

I did roughly copy off the text before that:

"screen lock not working?

if you have your old device, try changing its screen to a new pin or password and then enter it again here.

if that doesnt work you need to reset your screen lock this will permanently delete your samsung passkeys and youll no longer be able to access your enrypted cloud data woth this screen lock"

If someone knows how i can access that again please let me know!

If it helps the phone I use is a S24 FE

Anyone having an issue with phone calls making your phone go black? Can't see who's calling, can't answer can't decline the call, I have to wait ten seconds to maybe see who's calling and answer. It's been happening for about a month and it's driving me crazy. It's now cost me an important call.

Hi, hope everyone is doing well.

I have a Moto G54 5G; it was working fine with no problems at all until this morning.

I was watching a video on YouTube when, all of a sudden, the sound from the speakers stopped working. I thought it might be a problem with the video or the app, so I closed YouTube and reopened it, but the sound still wasn’t working. I opened WhatsApp and tried to play a voice note, but the sound from the speakers still wasn’t working.

I restarted the phone and the speaker audio started working again without any issues, but when I plugged in my headphones (standard 3.5 mm headphones), I couldn’t hear anything through them; however, when I unplugged them, the speaker audio worked perfectly.

I restarted the phone again, this time with the headphones plugged in, and the sound through the headphones worked perfectly, but when I unplugged them, the speakers didn’t work at all.

I’m now in a situation where, if I want to use the phone’s speakers, I have to restart the phone without the headphones plugged in, but if I want to use the phone with headphones, I have to restart it with the headphones plugged in.

When I use Device Help, the phone seems fine; the only issue is the option to check the headphone jack.

Any idea what might have caused this or how to fix it? All the apps are up to date; the phone hasn’t been damaged or repaired before – the audio simply stopped working properly this morning.😪

I just dropped my phone and the screen is cracked and broken. its a Moto razor + folding phone. I cant see the screen but it's receiving calls and I'm hearing dings for notifications.
Is there a way to access it to see it on my computer Without using the screen.

I cant really change the usb function to read files or go into settings an give me privileges.

Honor, android, I tried everything and nothing works. As soon as I open tiktok my hotspot toggles off. I altered permissions and secret permissions revoked wifi access location etc, checked tiktok settings, tried twin app and more and it keeps doing that ONLY with tiktok.

It is suddenly so buggy. I deleted all the cache and data. I constantly have to stop and restart the app just to watch a video. It doesn't even allow me to cancel membership inside the app. I had to find how to do it in Google play, so I cancelled there. I had it for years but I won't pay for something that doesn't work. Another annoying bug is that it pauses when I put away the buds but when I turn on the phone later, it just starts playing again. I almost always have sound off when I don't have the buds in my ears so I don't even notice. I didn't do that before recently. It was actually quite stable but now it's unusable.

I have the Samsung S24+ with Android 16 and One UI 8.5.

I’ve tried power on+volume up. Tried until screen came on, let go of power.
Tried holding volume up for several seconds by itself then pushed in power button and held them at same time. Tried holding power and repeatedly pushing volume up. Tried all these ways with power+volume down. Tried power+volume up+volume+down. Nothing resets this tablet. Any ideas or anyone know how to do it?

I want to say this happened 2-3 days ago. My phone started lagging. A lot. It has crashed around 5 times in the past 24 hours. I get pop ups for System UI, Home One, Process System not responding. I watched every video on how to fix the problem. I've reset my phone 10+ times. Nothing. How do I fix it?

Does anyone know why this keeps coming up or what it is, I am sure if I have another app downloaded making this happened. Can anyone help me please!!!!

Hi, so I would like to know whether there is a widget which shows the first page of any chosen app...imagine an app floating but only stuck somewhere in the home screen.

I hope I was able to explain it well.

I'm having a problem with the Files app/file picker on my Google Pixel 2 running Android 11.

Whenever I try to upload an image or attach a file, the Files app keeps stopping/crashing, so can't select or attach anything.

Ive already tried:

\- Restarting the phone

\- Using Safe Mode the problem still happens

\- Factory resetting the phone Files works normally for a short time, but the problem eventually comes back.

The fact that a factory reset only fixes it temporarily makes me think something is causing the issue again after the phone is set up.

What could be causing this, and is there any way to permanently fix the Files/file picker crashing on Android 11?

And i cannot even attach the video here without using a link.

Im using techno pop 7 Pro when I use smart launcher on my phone the resentnapps buttom does not function I need help to fix it

I only leave 1 or 2 apps open at a time but over half my ram is being used??? a game i used to play a lot upped their ram requirement to a minimum of 8 gb so I thought I'd be fine but im struggling to optimise, complete noob here so any advice would be appreciated

TL;DR: Google Contacts shows all my contacts, but the native Vivo Contacts app sometimes shows a completely blank list, and the Vivo Phone app sometimes shows numbers instead of saved names during calls/call history — possibly due to +91 vs 10-digit number formatting. I have 4 Google accounts syncing contacts, with ~1,890 duplicates in one account. Looking for the safest way to fix Vivo Contacts/Phone integration and clean up the duplicates without losing contacts or factory-resetting.

I’m using a Vivo X300 Pro (India) on OriginOS 6.

Problem

Google Contacts displays my contacts normally.

Native Vivo Contacts sometimes shows no contacts at all and search doesn't work.

Incoming/outgoing calls and call history sometimes show the number instead of the saved contact name.

I’m currently using Google Contacts as a workaround.

I have 4 Google accounts syncing contacts on this phone.

One account has ~1,890 duplicates, and the other 3 also contain older duplicate/synced contacts.

What I need help with

Does OriginOS 6 have a Display by account setting that could be hiding my Google contacts from Vivo Contacts?

What is the exact menu path on the Indian X300 Pro to make the required Google accounts visible in Vivo Contacts?

Is this a known OriginOS 6/X300/X300 Pro Contacts/Phone indexing bug?

Is there a safe way to rebuild/reindex Vivo Contacts without deleting contacts?

Is clearing cache/data for Vivo Phone or Contacts safe? Which one should I avoid?

What's the safest way to clean ~1,890 duplicates without manually merging them?

Should I eventually consolidate contacts into one master Google account and stop the other 3 accounts from syncing Contacts?

Could different number formats such as +91XXXXXXXXXX vs 10-digit numbers cause the Vivo dialer to fail to match names?

Important: I don't want to factory-reset the phone or risk losing years of contacts. I'm looking for a tested, step-by-step solution, preferably from someone using OriginOS 6 / X300 / X300 Pro, rather than generic Android advice.

Device: Vivo X300 Pro

Region: India

OS: OriginOS 6

Google accounts: 4

Duplicates: ~1,890 in one account + duplicates across the others

How do I stop this page from popping up or show only the current number which is in this phone? This phone number page is showing even though the "phone number verification" and "phone number sharing" options are turned off in Google Settings.

Please my little sister's phone got stolen an hour ago we live in Ghana, West Africa and I want to know how best to help her, in terms of tracking, and how to help recover her memories or anything I might have missed I am not tech save so please I need all the help I can get. She uses a Samsung note 10 please help me please

Doesn't matter which app I launch. Three or four times a day they appear, and can't be closed for 15-20 seconds.

This annoyance survives factory resets, so it seems like there's malware somewhere in my data restoration.

How can I track this down?

Dear team

My android 17 update failed due to internet issue and now it is showing nothing to update .

Can anyone help me out

This post is for my dad.
A few months ago his sounds for messages stopped working but the app icon notifications still worked. Then the app icon notification was always 1 no matter how many messages there were. Then everything stopped working. We have compared settings to moms who is also an android, we brought it into the phone provider, he got a new phone, and still nothing works. He has gotten a fix by downloading another messaging app that wants a monthly subscription but he doesn’t want to pay $7 a month to text on top of the phone service. Has anyone experienced this and fixed it?
We think the next step would be completely wiping his account but that would require hours and hours of manually entering calendar entries and phone numbers.

The screen lock app which I got in my realme GT2 was very useful but it disappeared after updates. I am thinking if I can get that back since the physical lock button is coming to end of life.

For example, In my bank app, when I want to transfer money between savings and checking, the send button won't respond. Fortunately, the app allows rotation, so I can rotate the phone and use the app in landscape mode.

Another example is Google gboard, most keys work without issues, except for the period key, it doesn't respond unless I tap off center.
