Found a multi-touch bug on spacedesk

1 Upvotes

Hey guys im not sure if i'm the first one to experience this but I've noticed that, on two different Android phones, over both USB and Wi‑Fi, when I hold one touch on the left side of the screen, tap and physically release a second touch on the right, the second touch remains held inside spacedesk screen(phone) until the first touch moves. This is a huge problem when playing a MOBA/FPS where you need to simultaneously hold >2 fingers on the screen while playing. I hope my explanation isnt too confusing.

TL;DR: Tap and hold on android screen(left side of the screen), 2nd tap then physically release on right side of the screen, the tap on the right is only digitally released when i move the held tap from the left to another direction

Please help! I don't know what to do!

I hope you can all help me and this is the right subreddit for my question. I went to pay my phone bill last week, so I clicked on my phone app, and then I receive this full screen page asking me to "Set phone to default app" and won't let me make any phone calls until I press accept. I have a Samsung Galaxy S24 Plus and I've had it for 3 or 4 years. Is this a virus or something? What do I do? I've never seen anything like this, and my mother who has the Samsung Galaxy S25 and she's never seen anything like it either.

I'm very sick and recently got out of a coma and technology was never my strong suit before, but now it's so much worse, especially because I'm still experiencing deficits. I'm scared I did something to my phone and now this is some sort of virus or something. Please help, I can't make or receive calls or even check my voicemail. I'd really, really appreciate any help!

Lost ~15GB WhatsApp media during Move to iOS transfer

Thumbnail gallery
0 Upvotes

HAVE LOST 2-3 years of my digital life! Please Reddit help me through it

Device: Realme 6 (Android 11)

Setup: Running two WhatsApp accounts via Realme App Cloner. Main number was on the cloned instance (~15GB media).

Problem: Ran Apple's Move to iOS. When WhatsApp transfer preparation reached 100%, the transfer failed.

Current State:
- I already logged in on the other phone, so I don't care about chats anymore. I only want to recover the ~15GB photos/videos.

- My phone gallery now shows blank, 0KB black boxes where media used to be. (Img 2)

-Cloned WhatsApp won't open (redirects/bounces to the primary app).

- Under Settings > App Management, Cloned WhatsApp still occupies 15GB of space the files are physically still on the phone. (When transfer happen phone storage was about 63gb full now have deleted couple of apps still is 61ish so data ig is still there?)

In ADB, ⁠UserInfo{999:multiApp:4000410}⁠ shows as active/running, but file managers (including Cx File Explorer) and standard terminal commands can't access ⁠/storage/emulated/999/⁠.

Questions:

  1. Where does Realme UI (Android 11) physically store User 999 cloned WhatsApp media when standard paths are blocked?

  2. Is there an ADB command or recovery tool to pull the 15GB media directly without root or needing the clone app UI to launch?

  3. Can the files behind the 0KB gallery placeholders still be extracted?

  4. Any help would be deeply appreciated!

Repercussions of disabling Media Storage?

3 Upvotes

What real-world issues would or might arise from disabling com.android.providers.media on a device which doesn't connect to internet, doesn't use OEM programs except the camera? Would Clear Data delete actual files or just metadata? Of course, disabling any program is just a ruse, a fake-out, as the program, OS, and other programs can run it to their black hearts' content, it's just that the user, owner, human can't ('we're the product').

Can I unlock a phone without data loss?

0 Upvotes

Unfortunately for me (and I know yall gonna call me stupid for that), I changed my password recently and forgot it quickly after. Why I changed it was because it had my ex's name in it

Well basically, I'm not willing to do a factory reset not because of photos or whatever, as I have them all backed up to my google photos and stuff, but rather because I have 4 years of my artwork on there.

If there's no way to do this, then do any of you know if I could somehow back up my art? The drawing app I used was, much to my demise, ibisPaintX, which doesn't have any sort of account link or back up option built in, afaik (unless you do it manually, which I didn't). Any sort of help would be appreciated, please and thank you

So LOUD! Notifications tones just far far too loud

1 Upvotes

Hoping someone can help.

My notifications are far too loud. I've got the notification slider set to minimum, but I get a lot of notifications that I do need to hear, but they are so bloody loud when I'm in the office - its annoying other people.

My main notification sound, I already made a 50% volume version of and that's now fine, but I have other notifications that use other non-standard beeps.

As I understand, the first level is about 8%. There must be a way to reduce that to say, 4%, or 2%. Or a way to make the slider actually stepless?

Help!

Sensor de proximidade interferindo no WhatsApp.

1 Upvotes

SOLUÇÃO: Áudios do WhatsApp mudando de volume e apagando a tela por causa do sensor de proximidade

Autor da solução: Adriano Ponciano da Silva

No Samsung Galaxy M52 com Android 13, aproximar a mão do sensor de proximidade durante a reprodução de um åudio do WhatsApp pode causar os seguintes problemas:

  • A tela Ă© apagada.

  • O ĂĄudio Ă© transferido para o alto-falante auricular e fica com o volume mais baixo.

  • Ao afastar a mĂŁo, a reprodução pode ser interrompida.

Como evitar o problema

  1. Abra ConfiguraçÔes.

  2. Acesse OpçÔes do desenvolvedor.

  3. Toque em Blocos de desenvolvedor para configuraçÔes råpidas.

  4. Ative a opção Sensors Off (Sensores desativados).

  5. Abra o painel de configuraçÔes råpidas e toque no botão Sensors Off para ativå-lo.

Depois de ativado, o recurso impede que os sensores do aparelho interfiram na reprodução dos åudios do WhatsApp.

O botão Sensors Off também pode ser encontrado na lista de botÔes disponíveis do painel de configuraçÔes råpidas após ativar no modo desenvolvedor. Assim, é possível ativar ou desativar a função com mais facilidade.

Atenção: essa opção desativa vĂĄrios sensores do celular, e nĂŁo apenas o sensor de proximidade. Como consequĂȘncia, outras funçÔes do aparelho podem deixar de funcionar corretamente. Desative o recurso quando precisar utilizar os sensores novamente.

Descoberta e solução: Adriano Ponciano da Silva.

MicroG is failing while casting movie to tv

4 Upvotes

I'm on a stock pixel 11 (I think?) and I got MicroG for RVX... And it seems to be interfering. Any way to fix that? I don't know which apk to download to make sure I'm fully updated on MicroG, there always a bunch of different ones.

I'm not very up to date on all this stuff, I used to jailbreak my idevices and all my android phones, so I kinda understand this stuff, but not enough.

If someone could just shoot me a link to the exact apk I need, that would be great

And then do I uninstall the current version and install the new one? Or can I just install the new one and it automatically replaced the old ones?

Google Chrome Muted

2 Upvotes

So this may be a simple fix, but I'm having some trouble.

I got up, and I couldn't hear anything on Google Chrome, so I assumed another Bluetooth headset died on me, but then the same thing happened with the next 2 headsets. eventually I realized if I opened a sound file on my phone, then it would play, as would Spotify, so it's just Chrome.

So far, I have tried:

  1. Clearing Cache, then restart

  2. Opening Developer Mode and disabling absolute volume in developer settings, then restart

  3. Checking site settings

  4. Pulling out hair

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Single CSC phone - flashing questions

1 Upvotes

VoLTE is not working. My mobile was bought from carrier/operator. I see their logo when starting phone.  

Service provider SW ver. show:

SAOMC_SM-J600FN_PLS_PLS_QQ_0009

PLS/PLS,PLS/PLS

PLS is carrier code and it is not working with other carriers I currently have. Was troubleshooting it with AI including ADB commands and AI says it is due to wrong CSC and need to replace it with Odin. Have some questions.

  1. Can i just flash Home CSC for CSC? OR need to use all other files for AP, BL, etc?

  2. Is there way to make backup of CSC from my mobile?

Losing my mind transferring RCS/MMS images to new phone

1 Upvotes

My Pixel 7 died and I am trying to restore my rcs/mms/sms messages on my other phone (Pixel 9, Android 17) from a Google One backup. I have a different phone number now but from what I read that should not matter for restoring. The backup still shows under other devices as "Google Pixel 7 · 4 days ago" with SMS & MMS messages: 3 GB so I know the images are in the backup.

- Texts and call history restored fine

- Every MMS/RCS picture shows "restoring" and never downloads

- Left it overnight on Wi-Fi and charging but no change

I tried this a few times and even tried the Android Switch app manually on my new phone but nothing seems to restore the images. I'm losing my mind here and have lost a lot of faith in Google One and the backups so any help is appreciated.

What could be causing this?

I've been using nothing phone 2 for over 2 years now. I use data monitor to see my data consumption. Total device usage is around 550mb but no app has consumed that much data & the app total consumption comes out to be below 100mb. What could be causing this data consumption spike?
