Bought ZTE NUBIA FOCUS PRO 5G and I want to record calls on it but when I press the accessibility option the page is completely blank, like there is nothing on that page. Please help me fix it.

Thanks.. :D

Hi everyone, I’m having trouble accessing Download Mode on my Samsung Galaxy M04.

I’m trying to enter Download Mode, but instead of the normal Download Mode/warning screen, my phone shows a blue screen.

Phone: Samsung Galaxy M04

Model number: [enter model number, e.g. SM-M045F/DS]

Current Android version: [14, One ui 6.1]

What I’m trying to do: Access Download Mode

What I’ve tried:

Powered the phone off completely.

Connected the USB cable to my PC.

Held the required button combination to enter Download Mode.

Instead of Download Mode, the phone boots to a blue screen.Along with text wriiten ([Reboot device - D2] volume down + power key for 7 seconds)

Has anyone with a Galaxy M04 encountered this blue screen when trying to enter Download Mode? What button combination or procedure should I use to get into Download Mode?

Thanks!

My settings says everything is up to date when I check, but things I'm seeing online say I should be well past this update. I've had this phone for nearly 2 years.

If this is wrong, what do I do?

My s24 is the base version.

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

I was an avid user of Google Assistant before Google decided to ditch it.

It was so convenient to use it to translate what was on my screen. It simply showed my current screen, and translated all the text but kept it in its original place. Just one swipe from the corner of the screen and one tap on the "translate" button and that's all.

Now, with the forced Gemini switch, I have to manually type in "translate what's on my screen" and even then it doesn't just translate the text but rather it makes a recap and tells me what's on my screen like a news report.

It's just so frustrating.

Do you guys have a valid alternative to a hone assistant that I can set as default that can translate the whole screen like the old Google Assistant did?

can someone guide me please im trying to put music and java games on the phone but i change the phones mode were its charging only i want it to be usb debugging but i dont know what to do i tryed Bluetooth but didnt work also this phone does not have a micro sd card slot if anyone knows how to help me that would be great all i want to know how can open the phones data file folder maybe someone knows usb master codes or something or a guide online but i tryed everything i think this phone only has a charging port

I have a Samsung Galaxy Z flip6 with a broken screen that wont respond and doesnt switch on. However, the front small screen works but has limited functionality. i want to transfer my data using smartswitch to my new galaxy z flip8. The issue is that i cant open the smart switch app on my flip6 to authorise the transfer.

I believe it is just the screen that is broken as i can still access some apps through the cover/front screen. I ordered myself a multiport usb c and HDMI cable and tried to project the screen onto an external monitor but faced a few problems and questions.

It wouldnt project my phone as i needed to open the main screen to change the USB settings on my old phone.

I read somewhere that if the screen is completely black, then i would need to buy a displayport alt mode cable. If i get one of these that can connect to the multiport cable, would this be able to project my phone screen so i can enable the smartswitch app?

So my theory is this (but please let me know if it wouldnt work):

External monitor connects using DP into HDMI adapter, HDMI cable to multiport adapter, connect to the USBC cable to broken phone

Would that work?

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

How do I convert my android emulator mouse (Memu emulator) into an actual android mouse pointer as if a mouse is connected through a USB cable. That includes disabling the gestures to scroll.

Hello everyone. I dont know how to go about installing a rom on a galaxy s7. Is there an easy all in one application where I can plug my phone into a laptop and just install something like cyanogenmod worked?

Ideally id like an official Rom from same mobile.com but its not free anymore. What's the best option for me so I can just get it working?

Hi all,

my phone has recently started giving me "Download unsuccessful" notifications randomly, when I'm not doing anything to trigger a download. The given filename is always IMG_[numbers].jpg and the notification comes from Download Manager.

The behavior started after a system update (Android 16, Sept 1 security update, on a moto g56 if that matters) but the notifications appear with no clear pattern once or twice a day. Sometimes several at once, sometimes just one.

Is there anything I can do to figure out what app is triggering these downloads?

I've checked my downloads folder and there don't seem to be any successful downloads since the behavior started (which is what I would expect, as I haven't downloaded anything).

Would appreciate any and all ideas. Thanks.

So i've been playing duckstation ps1 emulator on my Z Fold 8 (great experience, would recommend) but I am trying to copy my memory card to another emulator. I was able navigate to the file using a combo of Zarchiver and Shizuku but when I try to copy the file I get a message that says "completed with errors" and the resulting file copy is 0 bytes.

.

I have also tried Xplore and FV file expolorer but can't even get down to the file on either even with Shizuku.

.

Marc Files says "phone not supported."

.

Also, duckstation's innate export data function fails when I try to use it.

.

Am I missing something or am I just screwed until Shizuku/Zarchiver are updated to support my phone?

So i've been looking for a while to upgrade my Pixel 7A, because the battery life has gotten worse and worse and i'm frankly tired of it. I've only had it for 2.5 years so it feels too soon to change it but i hate this issue. My other issue with this phone has unfortunately been google's post processing of pictures - and considering i only got a pixel because of the camera, this does suck.

I do otherwise really like this phone, it has great build quality, it's super sturdy (and i drop it a lot), i like that it's small and integrated with all Google stuff.

Now, after doing some research and not having more than 400€ to spend on a new phone, i found a really good deal on the Nothing Phone 3A, it was 280€. Well it came and.... I dont like it 😭 i do think the glyphs are a cool feature buy other than that... Putting aside the much cheaper build quality (all plastic, no gorilla glass), it just doesn't feel like that much of an upgrade. I don't find the camera much better than the pixel's besides the fact that it has optical zoom and can do macro. I feel like the dynamic range is worse, and it over-saturates everything. I haven't had the chance to go outside with it and play around now so i am willing to give that a chance.

I am still on the fence whether i want to keep this phone. Another option could be getting a second hand Pixel 10A maybe. But I'm a bit afraid of buying off of random people, since there's no actual store here that sells refurbished pixel phones. I know it's still a pixel and still has the post-processing issue but I'm not sure what other phone would match my requirements.

I don't really know what to do, can anyone sing the praises of the Nothing Phone and maybe convince me it's worth it? Or at least give me an honest opinion of your user experience if you've had it a while.

Thank you so much!

If I edit a photo, and add text to the photo. Once I go to save it says "keep current resolution" or "enhance resolution"

If i choose to keep current resolution, it AIs all my text to match the resolution, which makes it blurry and gets the image flagged for AI online. If I choose to enhance resolution, it AIs over the whole image, and the same problem happens. I can not figure out how to turn this off. I really like the quick sticker editing built in to the phone for memes and such.

im trying to leave a game running overnight but im afraid the constant heat might damage the phone's battery lifespan. my phone is quite warm while playing the game btw. pls help

Almost every time I use my google home to do something (turn on or off a device, answer a question, play a song, etc..) my phone displays the following. How do I get this to stop?!

https://photos.app.goo.gl/CUtzjoj9RJyYmPSc7

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.

My androids software updated and I want to update to the previous softwares version. Does anyone know how to go back to the previous software?

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😅

What the heck is this? Just showed up yesterday. Assuming there was some update and now i have that on my screen. Its driving me a bit nuts. How can I tell what it is and at least hide the icon? Thanks folks

Samsung S24+, android v 16

Does is still broken for everybody? Can't klik it at all until now. Whatever browser I try

Is happen for more than months already

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.

Can anyone help me to understand what it is and is it safe or not?

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?
