Really simple to use privacy manager

lua.xprivacy.eu

It allows you to block all apps from tracking and analytics.

It's a very nice app.. you can download it for free... But the paid option is worth it.

It'd be easier for ya to visit the site and try the app than me try to explain it haha

It's happened to some others as well. Seems to be an off and on bug. It only happened to me once (believe I was on A12 at the time), but hasn't happened since and hasn't happened on A13 for me so I don't think it's related to A13 specifically. Wish I could offer a solution but from what I've observed from others it seems to be random and I haven't seen a solution. The only thing I can think of right now is to maybe factory reset/clean flash and see if that helps.

Hello everyone, I'm using Vivo X Fold on Origin OS. The problem is that in some games that support 120 hertz, it doesnt work. Lock on 60 by vivo.

Previously, I used 1+ smartphones, there was a similar problem that was solved by adb or something, on the same Samsung, 120 works in Wot Blitz without doing anything. So, how can I turn on force 120 in some apps like WoT Blitz? Thanks everyone!

Hi, This is James here.

I would like to know if you guys facing the same issue as i mentioned in the title? When i share hotspot from my computer, any phone devices can't connect to it [ remain obtaining IP address then it shows saved and repeat again ]

While before upgrading to this version, my hotspot works just fine and other phone also can connect to it smoothly.

I hope that anyone that know the solution kindly share the method to solve this issue with me, thanks in advance

[Sony Xperia 1 IV] kanej2006:
My previous Sony had an option in the Display/Settings for running apps and games to run in full screen.

There is no such option on the Xperia 1 IV. I have several apps and games that are having black bars and not full screen.

What methods are there of forcing apps and games to run full screen???
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] mufunyo:
Immersive mode is broken since Android 11. The only options require root.
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] kanej2006:
It's a shame, I remember with my old Sony Xperia 1 Mark II, there was an option under "display" & then "display apps in full screen, apps that did not display full screen had the option to use full screen as normal.

Also there was an option" double tap to wake" which also appears to be missing in the Xperia IV. :(
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] guhvanoh:
Settings -> Display -> Lock screen preferences -> Tap to show lock screen. See the descriptive text under the option. Doesn't this do that?
[Sony Xperia 1 IV] kanej2006:
You are correct, this option is for the "double tap to wake" option, it's just worded differently than the predecessor, thanks for correcting me.

Hi,

A friend of mine has a Mercedes Benz branded Galaxy Tab 4 SM-T230NZ tablet but he sold the car. Can this tabled be flashed with stock Android?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you can find a firmware for SM-T230NZ and if the tablet has a download mode that it can be booted into, you should be able to flash the stock firmware via Odin, if there is no conflict with binary version between the currently installed firmware and the firmware that you intend to flash.

The binary version can be identified by looking at the build number of each firmware, the 5th character from the right end of the build number indicates the binary version. The binary version of the firmware that you intend to flash has to be equal to or higher than the binary version of the currently installed firmware, it can not be lower. You can not flash "from" a higher number "to" a lower number, it can only be "from" a lower number "to" an equal number or a higher number. You can only "stay where you are" or "move forward", you can not "move backward".

Now when I go to APN Setting I get the "Access point name setting are not available to this user" I this something the added with the updates? Does anyone know a work around.

Either you use, if there is one, the TRWP with recovery rom or Miflash or the bat file included in the Fastboot rom by modifying the script containing the ARB lines.

I've been trying to do so for a week, but just can't do it.

I've tried two way:

I've locked the bootloader from fastboot-mode, shutdown and then got into BROM-mode to re-flash the "boot", "recovery" and "vbmeta" (tried "dtbo" too) images. Then I enter the recovery, I format the data and after that it gives me the "normal" corrupted recovery error.

I've also tried to flash the partitions and lock the bootloader through the same fastboot "session" but I just can't get it done.

I'm on OOS11 A19 (european), I haven't ever upgraded to anything over C.01 (I read that C.05 and beyond would break the BROM-mode). A guy on YouTube did it with A13/15 (indian) but I don't know if it's because of this. This is the first phone I ever mod and sure this is a nightmare (I'm coming from an unofficial PixelExperience).

[General Questions and Answers] hotrod101:
You need to place a picture of your album cover in you music folder. The album cover has to be in .jpg format and you need to name the album cover "folder" . Do this for each folder. It is recomended that you organize your music into folders by album and then place that album cover "folder".jpg into each album folder. VOILA Album covers should show up. This is the way to get your album covers to show up for most music players (WM Player, Core Player included)

If you are placing mixed music (such as I do) I usually place 20 so songs into a folder and place an ablum cover (generic that looks like a mixed ablum) into the folder and name it "folder".jpg because I don't like to have too many albums seperated on my storage card (Just Lazy) for more S2P questions / hints referr to the S2P link here

Thanks Senior! i tried.. but the album pic still does not appear in my S2P.. any idea why?

i also tried playin with my WMP, it also doesn appear.

Anywae, there is already an album pic shown on my music folder when it is in my computer.
[General Questions and Answers] hotrod101:
the .jpg photo of your album cover is case sensitive and has to either be named folder or cover.

Regarding album showing on computer - it may be displaying the embedded album art, S2P and WMP and Core player have a difficult time showing a lot of the embedded album art. Most of my mp3's have embedded album art but I still have to insert a .jpg of the album cover for them to show on my device.

Make sure you are using the most recent version of A_C's S2P aslo as he fixed some bugs in previous versions to help with showing album art. I am personally not using the most updated version because I have been having issues with his newest versions crashing when I try launching it while my device in in Landscape mode.

[Samsung Galaxy S10+ Questions & Answers] electrobir:
Unable to boot into recovery mode/factory setting on Samsung Galaxy s10 Plus SM-G975F/DS Exynos version. My friend gave me this phone with a busted screen which he has not used for over a year. I bought a TFT screen for the s10 plus as a replacement and everything seemed to work fine. The problem was that my friend couldn't remember the pin code he used to access the phone. So, to hard reset the phone, I followed the procedure to put the phone into recovery mode by:

1: First plugging the phone to a USB-C cable connected to my laptop.

2: Holding down "volume down + power button".

3: Then as soon as the phone is off, I hold the "Volume Up +bixby + Power button" as the Samsung Galaxy s10+ logo appears.

4: Let go of held buttons when the SAMSUNG logo shows.

The phone then boots as normal but shows this error everytime: "[PDP] backup fail: setup-wizard finish"
