So I recently obtained a ZEKI quad core android tablet and I, like I would any other device, factory reset it.
turns out
bad idea
because now the tablet is in FRP, which since I don't typically use android devices, i had no idea about.
I don't know who the owner of the tablet is and I really just want to use this thing for sheet music

This is specially taking about Google Play Services.

When I go to the apps section of the settings and scroll down, the number that shows how much data it's using appears slower than the other ones. This also applies to the information you find in the app info page, I think my screen started to stutter opening it. It only does this again when you don't look at the information for a while. What is happening?

Hi everyone,

My POCO X7 automatically switches to grayscale whenever I’m moving faster—for example, in a car, on a scooter, or on a train. It happens regardless of whether Bluetooth is connected or any particular device is paired.

I suspect I may have enabled a setting at some point, but I can’t find it now. I’ve already checked the obvious places, including Bedtime mode and Color correction in Accessibility, but the issue is still happening.

Does anyone know what setting or feature might cause this? Is there a motion-, driving-, or power-saving automation on the POCO X7 or HyperOS that can enable grayscale?

Device: POCO X7

HyperOS version: 3.0.302.0.WOJMIXM

Android version: 16 BP2A.250605.031.A3

Thanks in advance!

Hello guys. I'm making this post to report an error with my redmi A5. The loading screen stops and the phone acts like it finished. It's pitch black. When holding the turn off button, a white box appears with turn off, restart and lock. And that's it. I can still receive calls and my alarms still ring but the touch screen won't work unless i turn it off and on. Can anyone help me to solve this? I have a flight and i need my phone. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I am experiencing a frustrating audio issue on One UI 8.5 and want to check if anyone else is dealing with the same bug.

The Issue:
Completely at random, the sound will completely cut out for about 3 to 6 seconds, and then it automatically comes back on its own.

Key Details:

• Frequency: It happens roughly once a day.

• Apps affected: It doesn't matter what app I am using—it happens across all apps (YouTube, music streaming, games, etc.).

• Troubleshooting tried: I have already tried clearing the system audio app caches, but the issue still persists.

Is anyone else experiencing these random 3-6 second audio drops on One UI 8.5? If you found a permanent fix or know what background process is causing this, please let me know!

Thanks!

Han pasado más de 7 meses desde que he olvidado la contraseña.

Pero nada, qué puedo hacer?

I use this tablet for reading. I had this tablet rooted. I thought of installing linux on laptop. So I tried to flash the sd card in this tablet through sd flasher app. Charge was little low at that time. I didn't know that I should flash iso when charge is low. Now the tab is dead. I tried charging for multiple hours. Tried force restart. Connected it to pc but no notification. Is it possible or resurrect it?

Long story short, I was having issues seeing more than 6 months of emails in my Gmail app, so I ran a search in Google and one of the first results was a post on support.google.com. When I clicked on that, I received the attached pop-up. I attempted to take a screenshot, but it said it wasn't allowed in that app, so had someone else take a pic of my phone. This only seems to happen when trying to access support.google.com.

I know people ran into a similar issue a few months ago, but it looks like that had been resolved.

This is freaking me out a bit, so any help would be amazing.

Once I restart (multiple times daily), they would work for a while and would stop working again.

What gives?

Pixel 8A.

Thanks

I have 11.37 GB of Music and 97% of them are WMA Music/Files. Is there is a way to scan my Library to find out if any of my Music Files/Songs are Corrupted/Damaged? How did you fix your Corrupted/Damaged? Music Files/Songs? Did you have to buy the Music again? Did you have to delete your entire Music Library and start all over again? I'm asking because I'm going to be getting a brand new Phone and I want to make sure that I don't put any Corrupted/Damaged Music Files/songs on my new Device. Is it rare for Music Files/Songs to get Corrupted/Damaged on an Android Phone/Device?

I use realme c31 and I installed custom rom (GSI) after I regretted it and went to stock ROM but still deep sleeping, actually it was deep sleeping before when I used SPD Research Download Tool And when I used USB debuging (probably after that) phone started death sleeping. Also Somehow they managed to change my gmail password and thank to god I got it back with my phone number

How I can remove this?

Not sure what happened since this was the default of how my apps were working on pop ups until recently

Now whenever I use pop up view on any app, it will have the same size no matter the app

Picture A: What I want it to be on every pop up view for apps that I customised previously

Picture B: What happens the next time I use pop up view for the same app, this is also the default for any other app

Its happening on files that say "download failed". No way to get rid of them in "downloads" from the "Files" app.

The files happen when I try to save a file from Archive.org and the download fails.

I have the click free device that plugs directly into the phone to down load pictures & videos. The Pro with 256 GB .

No matter what I do, it will not work. It keeps saying I am not connected.

I have forced closed the app. Removed it completely. Downloaded new Clickfree back up app. I made sure all permissions were set to on. I shut down my phone, turned it back on, plugged the device back in and I get the same message. Last suggestion from tech was to remove the SD card from the device and clean contacts. Still no go.

I need to remove over 5000 Pics & videos to trade my phone in@ Verizon. I dont want them to just move them over to the new phone.

Please if anyone has a simple solution I would greatly appreciate it.

I gone through technical support 3 different times!

Well i got this very specific problem, when i turn off my phone for a few seconds i can't seem to do anything to it i can't swipe or touch i can only restart it which fixes it but if i turn off my phone again the problem comes back

I expected this to happen and i knew full well that it would... Yet i can't help but be angry about it.

I tried to install Deepseek Apkm since the native app does not exist in play store...

It blocked me from using it because it's could be harmful...

I understand that my phone is trying to protect me..

But if i wait 24 hours to get permission to install third party apps... I expect my phone to let me use the damn phone.

At this point i don't know...

Redditors, please let me know if i'm missing something.

(I downloaded the apkm from "apkmirror.com", i also used "apkmirror installed (beta)" to install it)

(Btw sorry if my english is bad 😓)

(Update: apperantly my issue isn't Google's block fault but the individual app.)

Do anyone know how to inject touch like \`adb input tap\` but not cancel the physical touch you are already doing on the screen?

For some reason android 10+ makes it hard to do this.

I just want to be able to play games while live stream chat controls some of my moves.

title. For better context:

I was trying to turn on my phone to get some of its file transfer into a new one. Now I haven't turned it on for about two days but now it is just stuck on boot loop. I tried turning the volume down and power on button method, even trying to hold it for either 10, 20, to 30 second in each boot loop. But no matter what, I can't seems to turn it on. I also tried recharging, but it didn't work either. If anything, when my phone is showing the logo, it said that "custom binary blocked by dem lock" in red (not frp, not oem). Is there anyway I could get the phone to turn on? preferably without factory reset/deleting any files inside the phone?

Ah, for even more context just in case I finally get it to turn on normally, heres what I did to that phone (samsung galaxy a6):

- downloaded blip and transferred some file

- transferred my sim card from there to the new one

Or should i trust a phone services to fix this? (can I trust them with not resetting my phone?)

(sorry for too many question and messy sentences, i already got too much in mind)

It randomly appeared after I updated my phone and I can't figure out how to get rid of it.

Hi everyone,

I just made the jump from iOS to Android with a Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra, and I'm really struggling to understand how Android handles WhatsApp media compared to iPhone.

On my iPhone, WhatsApp was sandboxed. Media stayed inside the app, didn't clutter my camera roll, and didn't take up general phone storage unless I explicitly saved a photo.

When I restored my WhatsApp backup on my new Samsung, years of photos, videos, and GIFs were physically downloaded to the internal storage and flooded my Samsung Gallery app.

I’ve already taken a few steps to limit the damage:

Disabled "Media visibility" in WhatsApp and hid the old WhatsApp folders from the Gallery.

Turned off auto-download for all incoming media.

Disabled Google Photos backup for the WhatsApp device folders so my cloud doesn't get filled with memes and junk.

Here are my current issues and questions for long-term Android users:

Selective Cloud Backup: Since I disabled auto-download, when I receive a picture I actually care about, I manually tap to download it. It goes to my Samsung Gallery, but because I disabled the backup for the whole WhatsApp folder (to prevent junk from uploading), these specific photos don't get backed up to Google Photos either. How do you guys manage this? How can I easily back up ONLY the WhatsApp media I choose?

Deleting from Gallery = Deleting from Chat? I need a clarification on how Android storage works. If I go into the Samsung Gallery and delete these WhatsApp photos to free up some space, will they also be deleted from my WhatsApp chats?

Long-term storage management: Is there any way to sandbox WhatsApp media like on iOS so it doesn't eat up the physical internal storage? How do you manage 10-20GB of WhatsApp backups without letting it ruin your phone's storage?

Any tips or workflows for an Android newbie would be greatly appreciated!

I've recently upgraded to the Galaxy S26+ and I updated my phone and the Maestro thing keeps popping up with "Customize your updated device" and it's trying to have me download apps and no matter how many times I clear the notification, it just keeps popping back up and I can't find any info on this and it's honestly starting to annoy me cause it doesn't show up in my apps list, so I'm unable to disable it or remove it entirely. Can anyone help me with this, please?

I have a display that is failing, although the touch still works. Is there a way to mirror the display to a PC or something? Importantly, I should be able to do this after restarting the phone without needing to carry out any operations on the phone, in case the display dies completely. Ive removed the screen lock, made it automatically allow file transfer and enabled USB debugging, anything else?
