[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] DennisE1941:
I recently upgraded from an S7 Edge to an S20 + Ultra, both using Verizon. Before upgrading, I used Win10/Windows Media Player to update music files on the S7 with no issues. Since upgrading I have successfully update music files on the S20 using the same PC, same version of WMP, and same WIN10 operating system.

When I got the S20, I kept the S7, planning to continue using it as a music source in one of my cars that has aux input capabilities but no bluetooth. That still works. However, I recently added a bunch of new music to my collection, and want to update the files on the S7. I have been unable to do so.

I have set developer options on the S7 and checked that Media Transfer Protocol is set, Despite this, the PC recognizes only that a device has been connected, but not that it is a smart phone, and hence the S7 is not recognized as a device by WMP nor does it show up in Windows Explorer.

Is it possible that file transfer to the S7 is blocked because it is no longer under contract to Verizon?

If so, does anyone know a work around?

Thanks

Dennis
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answers] blackhawk:
Clear phone system cache.

Temporarily turn off Developer options and try.

Turn them on again and try.

Try in phone safe mode.

On the PC:

Check Event Viewer for error messages.

Try another cable and/or port.

In hardware management try rolling back the driver or search for driver.

Reboot, always reboot.

Hello,

So, after i updated to Android 12 (realme UI 3.0) version RMX2202_11_C12 everything runs flawlessly, except the YouTube app, where the scrolling animation is locked at 60Hz, even though I have the refresh rate set to high. I never had this issue on Android 11. Is anyone having the same issue ?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus Questions & Answers] Subarashis:
Hi

I'm facing a problem with my tablet. It shut down after official update and gets a bootloop. I'm not able to get into recovery mode beacuse when I press power+vol up it gets stuck on Lenovo logo. I was able to enter a fastboot mode so I decided to flash ROM. I tried official Lenovo assistant and Qfil + Many roms (stock, dumps from other users) but I always gets a bootloop. I can't turn off a tablet, because it turn on by itself and gets into bootloop until battery dead. What is a cause? How to fix it?
[Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Plus Questions & Answers] Subarashis:
Update: I leave it plugged in to PC via USB cable and after many bootloops my PC shows tablet as a hard drive (I was shocked). Then tablet shows animated Lenovo screen, then Lenovo screen with Snapdragon and finally on screen I saw menu with language selection. My joy was short, because right after choosing language I get a information: Battery temperature is to low. Charging has been stoped" Then tablet shut down again and goes to many bootloops until it will turn on again with the same information. Is this a battery problem?
[OnePlus 9 Pro] Roy_Alter:
Hey guys,

The storage manager shows me that I use 100 gb from 128

And 60 gb is used by "other apps".

No matter what storage analyser I tried, I can't find where is that 60gb

It doesn't appear in nowhere.

The things is see sums to 40gb +-

Thanks :)
[OnePlus 9 Pro] PhotonIce:
Gonna bump this because I'd really like to know what it is as well. I have a xiaomi device, and 12gb out of 128 is used by "Other apps". My internal storage is only 7gb in total, system is around 14gb, and apps are 12gb, so this should only total to 33gb out of 128, but 46gb is used out of 128. Really confused.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] AllGamer:
It's kind of right in front of you.

If you have a NAS drive or a Computer with larger hard drive.

It's time to do some Spring Cleaning.

See all those Images and Videos you have there.... cut and paste them to your PC via regular USB transfer.

that means everything under the Camera folder.

Next major candidate, if you are using WhatsApp and WeChat, do the same thing, but for its own folder.

Then repeat again for any other social media App you have.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] PhotonIce:
Tried this, still shows 11/12gb. Already checked my whatsapp files size, it's included in the whatsapp data section on its info page. All photos and media are shown seperately.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] TheKnux:
I don't know if this helps or not but about 2 years ago, was working with a coworker and they had a cheap phone with little internal storage, and he couldn't figure out where all of his space went. Come to find out, Chrome was taking up 2+GB! Check app cache for apps you rarely use and clear those, then go from there.
[OnePlus 9 Pro] PhotonIce:
i doubt app cache can amount to 10gb, especially when i dont have many apps installed on MY device. Either way, I use the cleanup tool, which does clear cache, and still see no difference.
[Amazfit] brokenshadows:
My girlfriend and i both have the Amazfit 5 Band. We both use it for displaying our heart rates while streaming. The issue i'm having is that when trying to pair the device to the app (Pulsoid) i see both my band and her band, but both are named the exact same thing (Amazfit 5 Band). i'd like to change the name of my band to something like "Em's Amazfit" so i can tell which one i'm trying to pair to in the app. i found the setting where you can add a description to the band name, but the description doesn't show up in the app we're using, so i need to know how to change the actual name of the band i'm wearing.

Google has been no help at all, and i have already installed the modded Zepp app from another forum, but still only see where to change the description, and not the actual band name...
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] erik2041999:
So can we just stop to talk about the colour temps randomly changing? I've read one or two posts around the internet only one or two that I actually found. No one really knows if it's a bug or a feature, Samsung doesn't apparently even know themselves from what I've read in those posts. Can anyone shed some more light on this? Does anyone have any experience with this? Because what is Universal across the posts and my own experience is that we all have the eye comfort setting off and it happens with auto brightness on or off. People replying said to try using the advanced settings for the colours or the settings for the colours in the accessibility sub-menu. Problem is why does the screen randomly go from a clear white to a yellow tinted white in yhe first place, and how to fix it... Can't post photos since it's random, and well physically visual to the eye...

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
All variable refresh rate displays are extremely hard to color calibrate. It could be software, firmware, hardware or a combination.

Try running in safe mode at 60hz and go from there.

Clear system cache. Try a hard reboot.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] erik2041999:
It's not about calibration, it's literally the device changing the colour temps from clear white to white with a very very faint yellow tint. I'm past clearing cache and resetting since I've already flashed through odin numerous times. Safe mode doesn't change the behaviour.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
My point being it's a very complex system. Return it for a cash refund if possible.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] erik2041999:
The period for returns is long gone unfortunately. Not to mention that I'm not leaning towards returning the device, I just want something that is clearly not hardware related to get fixed and someone to shed some more information on the subject of this bug or "feature"
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] blackhawk:
Did it do on first boot up or when did you first notice it?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lpdavidgc:
I've also noticed it, it changes to a yellowish white... I thought it just happened to me! It happens to me all the time and I don't know why 256/12 ram...

Maybe is this? I have it in cold colors and maybe it changes to yellowish

Try in natural mode. Blue filter disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lpdavidgc:
Not thanks, the screen becomes very yellow for my taste. 🤔
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] erik2041999:
I have no idea when I first realised, at first I thought it's me so I ignored it but then I read somewhere about someone experiencing this, and that's when I started paying attention to it and looking for it and the more I did the more I saw it happen infront of my eyes even when going from one webpage to another... From an app to another and so on. It's possible it could be related to the vivid mode since I have it the same as the guy that just replied, the cool setting. And like he said without it it's just so yellow.

(Edit) from the other posts around the internet they realised it started happening after the AVC6 update. So who knows.

I've seen a 3rd party app, Google Reader screw up the user hidden display settings. Unistalling it did no good, had to reinstall it, and change the setting that cause it.

This however maybe purely a Samsung bug. Trying to fix it by a hodgepodge color setting mix or 3rd party color adjuster will not get it done although it may look less irritating. Color calibration for displays can not be done accurately by eye, it will be way off. The display also uses multiple color profiles and their calibration will go to hell as well. An unpredictable ripple effect will occur spanning all apps like vids, and images that depend on color calibration for accurate color/gamma reproduction. That's really messed up if so, a complete fubar.

If it's a Samsung bug, they need to fix this...

[General Topics] ramonchin:
Hi guys.

I´m getting crazy with this machine. I've tried 2 ROMs on this PDA, original WM5 and XDA-forum WM6.1 version. Both without any aditional install... And every time I try to turn on Bluetooth, it says "The Bluetooth Radio failed to turn ON due to Insufficient driver memory available..." A lot of RAM is free, so what's the solution?:confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mumblefratz:
I've found some information on this topic but the solutions I've found either don't really work or involve concepts that I don't understand. The closest thing I found to something I could use is to disable Setting Suggestions (which requires ADB) but that also disables the settings search function which is not acceptable to me.

My standard solution would be to enable Setting Suggestions when I need to use the search function and disable it when I'm done but since I can only disable Setting Suggestions by connecting to a computer with ADB installed this makes it too much of a pain to be practical.

Is there a way to use ADB to setup Setting Suggestions so that it can be disabled from within Settings?

Or is any other way to do this that can be explained to someone that barely knows how hook up a usb cable and run adb?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhotonIce:
What are you referring to by "Settings Suggestions"?

Screenshots please?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mumblefratz:
View attachment 5571037

AFAIK It's a system package that controls the display of suggestions within the Settings package as well as the settings search function.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhotonIce:
If you have a custom rom, such as crdroid, you can disable it from the crdroid settings.

Otherwise, you can try rooting and uninstalling the package to see if that works.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mumblefratz:
I was afraid that this would be the answer.

So this brings up another more basic question. I'm very new to all of this and so far all I'm able able to do is to use ADB to disable or uninstall user 0 apps that I otherwise could not modify from within the Settings app on my Walmart tablets. So what is the next thing I need to understand so I can have more control over how my devices function?

Which is simpler and less drastic, rooting a device or somehow getting a new rom? Is there any other option besides these?

I've seen some reference to backing up your device before trying these types of steps. Can you point me to any documentation that explains how I can backup and (more importantly) restore my tablet if something bad happens. This seems like a prerequisite to anything beyond ADB disable/uninstall.

I actually have a fair amount of experience of getting back to my current state from a factory reset so there's always that, but a reliable backup/restore could certainly save me hours of tedious configuration.

The bottom line is that I really don't know enough to even ask the right question. Any guidance you can provide is appreciated.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhotonIce:
Rooting is probably the safer option. You can try using KingoRoot, it's a one-click root tool and is super easy to use. Try it a couple of times, if it keeps failing, you'll have to install a twrp image for your device and root via magisk. Since you're on a wallmart tablet though, I don't think you'll be able to get twrp for your model. You'll have to use fastboot to extract the boot.img, then patch it via magisk and flash it again to obtain root. Magisk is your best option for root.

Installing custom roms probably isn't possible for your device if its a generic wallmart tablet. If it has a brand name, please mention it. It will most likely be a random generic chinese tablet, so a custom rom for those is out of question.

Nandroid backups are used to backup your entire device. You can also take a TWRP backup if twrp is installed. If you mess up the rom using root (such as uninstalling a system module, or if the system bootloops or has any issues after deleting the module, a factory reset will not fix it, you will have to reflash the rom, most likely using sp flash tool if you have a mediatek soc in your device.

Considering that it may be a generic chinese tablet, it's probably better not to take the risks of rooting. I recommend that you try the KingoRoot app, and KingoRoot with your PC. If that doesn't work and you still want root, you're going to have to look into manually patching your boot.img. KingoRoot doesn't have any risks as far as I know, so do give that a try.

Please mention the tablet brand, if it is somewhat popular (and isn't a mediatek powered tablet), it may have twrp available for it unofficially, but don't get your hopes up.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hamid Chikh:
That's not how it works.

First, why do you want to disable it ?

Second, that package is responsible for search in settings app so disabling it disables search.

Thirdly, there's no way to disable/delete a system app without adb via PC, or with ROOT.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hamid Chikh:
You can turn off suggestions if that's what you need
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hamid Chikh:
Rooting isn't safer than just disabling/deleting an app via adb. Which can be restored at anytime and doesn't interfere with device integrity
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hamid Chikh:
I have it removed, along with a lot of other bloatware preloaded in my samsung phone. You can take a look

https://xdaforums.com/t/no-root-sam...tings-fixes-debloat-and-adb-features.4376755/
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhotonIce:
I tried adb removing stock bloat on my j510f, didnt work. Tried root and it did, so naturally i recommended it. Ofcourse, adb is the best option. OP even mentioned in his first post that he saw something related to using adb to remove bloat.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mumblefratz:
The tablet brand is Onn. I couldn't find out much about it other than it seems to be pretty much exclusive to Walmart.

However your response has pretty much convinced me that dealing with the specific question I posted in the OP is probably beyond my abilities at this time. I do have a vague idea of what you're talking about but that's about it.

I do understand that factory reset only restores the rom which is why factory reset can't unwind an update nor fix a screwup in the rom regardless of how it got there.

Ultimately what I am trying to accomplish is to gain whatever understanding and ability I can so as to have more control over the multitude of android devices I have in my life.

So far the limit of my bag of tricks is adb disable/uninstall. Yesterday I did a search of adb commands and found there's a lot more to adb than just disable/uninstall. I found a number of sources ranging from the offical seeming Android Debug Bridge (ADB) Commands Manual and Android Debug Bridge (adb) to adb cheat sheets and command lists put out by random folks and found them to be more than a bit intimidating.

However, the thing that caught my eye as having the most potential use to me are the following:

adb backup -apk -all -f backup.adb (backup settings and apps)

adb backup -apk -shared -all -f backup.adb (backup settings, apps and shared storage)

adb backup -apk -nosystem -all -f backup.adb (backup only non-system apps)

adb restore backup.adb (restore a previous backup)

These commands are simple on the face of it but there's still a lot that's not obvious. For example I assume that you can't use backup and restore fix a totally bricked device. On the other hand I would guess that if you haven't messed with the rom you can always do a factory restore first and then use the backup to save you the trouble of reinstalling and configuring all your 3rd party apps as well as restoring all the system disable/uninstalls save in the backup. Are my assumptions anywhere near corredt?

It's clear that I'm not a devloper, I'm not even a software engineer. I'm a retired digital hardware design engineer that would prefer not to get involved in all these details but can't help myself from trying to get things to work the way I want them to.

The essence of my question boils down to what next baby step can I take that extends what little control I have over my devices. Can you point me in ther right direction?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mumblefratz:
I want to disable it because it annoys me.

I know disabling that package disables search which is why I said the followings in the OP first paragraph.

I did not ask if you can disable/delete a system app without adb via PC (or root). I asked if I could use adb to change a system package so that it can be disabled from within the System Settings app.

AFAIK I have disabled all suggestions, but that didn't stop suggestions made within the Settings app.

I did go through your link, [NO-ROOT] Samsung OneUI Optimization Guide - Settings, Fixes, Debloat, and ADB Features but didn't see anything related to suggestions please let me know if I'm missing something.

The biggest problem as I see it is the extreme variation from one brand of phone to another or one tablet to another tablet and even more so if comparing a tablet to a phone. I probably don't have even half of the stuff you list in your guide on my tablet.

Flash again twrp via fastboot from PC.

Then go on with a recovery ROM via twrp....

Or flash complete stock fastboot image via PC

It's not a good idea to stop ROM flashing. If you can get to fastboot, you can flash again.

Hi everyone!

I recently dropped my OP3T (sad) and cracked the bottom of my front glass. To hold the whole thing together, I stuck a tempered glass screen protector on the front. The phone was fully functional except I was bothered by how hard I had to press on the screen to register a touch input. I did some digging on other device forums and discovered a fix that works for my OP3T. Greatly improved my touch sensitivity and I'm not getting any spurious inputs.

I am on LineageOS 17.1 (Android 10). I believe this fix should be universal for OP3/T, but if it doesn't work for you on other ROMs, let me know and we can figure it out.

Steps:

1. Open TWRP, mount system, and open up the terminal.

2. Move to the input device configuration directory using the following:

cd /system/usr/idc

3. Create a configuration file for the touch screen that contains a line for touch sensitivity, using the following:

echo "touch.pressure.scale=0.000000001" > synaptics.idc

4. Reboot system, and you're done!
