I currently use a modded whatsapp called AeroWhatsapp. Whatsapp has a feature called companion mode that lets you use whatsapp on multiple devices on the same account. If I decide to use that feature to move from my modded whatsapp to the regular one on the same phone, will anything bad happen? Like will i lose my groups and messages or anything since im on an unofficial whatsapp?

Hi guys, Im new in android development. So I want to create app like Microsoft LInk to windows or samsung flow, but my and for linux, I faced problem that I cant access clipboard changes from foreground service, logs in logcat says ```Denying clipboard access to ***, application is not in focus nor is it a system service for user 0```

My device: android 13 on Samsung s21

I use

val clipboardManager = getSystemService(CLIPBOARD_SERVICE) as ClipboardManager
clipboardManager.addPrimaryClipChangedListener {
Toast.makeText(
applicationContext,
clipboardManager.primaryClip?.getItemAt(0)?.text, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT
).show()
}

but it is not working from foreground service

I looked into samsung flow app permissions and there are some com.samsung.android.scs.*** permissions but It gives me nothing and in link to windows: com.samsung.android.sdk.mdx.permission.STUB_APP_UPDATE_UI_EVENT

I tried searching for samsung sdk but didn`t find it.

So I just want to access clipboard changes from foreground service

You need to display transparent activity (using SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW) to bypass the restriction.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mixfaa:
Thank you a lot for your answer, I tried to do it from foreground service, is it correct?

This is my whole code, https://github.com/Mixfaa/android_connect

As I understand I need to create Intent with some parameters to display my transparent activity and then invoke startActivity method with it, yes?

I will be very grateful if you help me

I got some promotion, now I just dont have permission to display it

I can grant overlay permission to this app because it is not listed in its list when i execute

if (!Settings.canDrawOverlays(this)) {

Log.d("F", packageName)

val intent = Intent(
Settings.ACTION_MANAGE_OVERLAY_PERMISSION,

[Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe] Borisdjango1:
Hello everyone

For a few days I reset my Samsung A5 2017 "SM-A520W" to return to the factory configuration because the phone had been routed and I also noticed that we had to change the IMEI for reasons that I don't know. After the reset I notice that the network is no longer working and display Emergency Calls only. Before the reset the phone was working fine and the network was there but as soon as I reset it, boom the network switched to Emergency Calls Only. I have already tried everything and seen tutorials disappointed for a repair but nothing

Need help please

Thank you.

Hello. When connecting Pixel 7 to a computer, USB distribution (USB modem) does not work. In Device Manager it shows cdc ncm. Just transferring files works. Tried different ports, doesn't work. Windows 10. Android 13
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] OXPlayz:
I originally posted this on Reddit but was told to post on XDA forums

I recorded a video a couple of weeks ago directly to an SD card, today I plugged my phone into the computer to transfer video but could not transfer (at that point I'm seeing the video I want to transfer), I then took out the SD card and plugged it directly into my computer and now the video is gone! Apparently, it turned into an "m3u" file type and now has a zero byte file size. My question is, are there any way to recover it WITHOUT going to a professional, or rooting my phone?

[General Questions and Answers] Crossshield45:
Hello any answers
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] Fishawy:
Thanks for that.

An easier way to resolve this: Just reboot into Safe Mode, then reboot again to system. All Magisk modules will be disabled, but you'll still have root. You can then re-enable your modules and leave the problematic ones out.

It is recommended to disable Magisk modules before upgrading anyway.
[Google Pixel 7 Pro] badabing2003:
Good that you managed to disable the modules and wrote a guide to help out others.

Don't take this as criticism, with such guides, vetting is necessary evil, to make sure there are no errors or gotchas in the steps, people follow guides at times blindly seeing that it had worked for you.

Like @Fishawy suggested, you didn't need to do all that if you're phone is able to get into safe mode (which is not always the case)

Entering safe mode either through key combination or the command in your step 8 would have been enough.

Besides, why do you link to a 3rd party download link for Google factory images?

Seeing that this is under Google Pixel 7 Pro forum, this would be the correct official link.

Factory Images for Nexus and Pixel Devices | Google Play services | Google for Developers

developers.google.com

Hopefully others with older devices, (example Pixel 5) don't follow this guide, because init_boot in step 2 does not exist.

Keep up the good work.

Leave the phone in fastboot. Install the Google USB driver in windows device manager

Get the Google USB Driver | Android Studio | Android Developers

The Google USB Driver is required to perform adb debugging on Windows with Google devices.

More info;

Install OEM USB drivers | Android Studio | Android Developers

Discover links to the web sites for several original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), where you can download the appropriate USB driver for your device.

Can anyone tell me how much space the operating system takes up before any additional apps have been installed. I'm trying to see how much space is left on the 128GB model for apps and if it's enough for me.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
According to my P8 Pro, the A14 system itself requires 16 GB.

However Google is running many Gapps on a Pixel which are not officially part of the System and count under "Apps".

These are the apps:

Android System intelligence: 2.5 GB

Google Photos: 1.5 GB

Speech recognition and Synthesis from Google: 1.07 GB

Google: 0.9 GB

Google Play services: 800 MB

Camera: 630 MB

Translate: 500 MB

Digital Wellbeing: 30 MB

Cross-Device Services: 30 MB

Pixel Launcher: 28 MB

Google Wallet: 28 MB

Google Play Protect Service: 25 MB

Sound Amplifier: 25 MB

Live Transcribe & Sound Notifications: 25 MB

(the list goes on, I'm not going to write down the Apps smaller than 25 MB)

I'd recommend to expect Google to take up ~30 GB of data (Gapps will have increased data usage once you use them).
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] bsg411:
Thanks for the info! What storage size did you get?
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
256 GB, less is not enough. The new UltraHDR pictures & high res videos take up too much space, with 128 GB you'll already have problems with storage if you take a 30min video on a holiday trip.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] bsg411:
I don't keep photos and videos on the device too long ... Mainly on the photos cloud space I pay for... Which now sounds like it'll be running out faster... Lol. Still might go for the 256 though.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Morgrain:
Well, if you are in a foreign country with limited mobile internet access and on a trip, you can't upload on the go. That's the problem. Sure, you can try to upload back at the Hotel with WiFi (good luck with the internet speed), but that won't help you if your phone has run out of storage whilst still being on the trip.

That's at least my experience from using a 128 GB phone. Once done, never again.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] bsg411:
I have a pixel 4xl with 128GB storage.... Still have 40 GB free.
[Google Pixel 8 Pro] Lughnasadh:
I have the 128GB variant and I vaguely remember that as I was getting reading to set up (before installing any non-preinstalled apps), that my free storage space was around 100GB, for what it's worth.

[General Questions and Answers] Hi_M_Anshu:
Hi,

I am pretty confused between Pixel 7 Pro and S23 as I am getting both the phones at a similar pricing in India. Looking at the comparison reviews I do prefer the photos taken by pixel mostly, however, coming from S21 FE I also love the One UI Experience and it's tweakibility along with a few camera features like changing the camera modes/lenses while shooting. I also see that the Snapdragon SoC on S23 would be a lot better than the Tensor on Pixel 7 Pro.

In terms of Camera, looking at comparisons I do love the colors produced by Pixel's Camera which don't have the yellow/greenish tone to them and are more natural looking, however, the edge detection seems to be an issue on Pixel and the Bokeh is less pronounced.

So please advice, what would be better and why?

Additionally, which one is easier to root and mod and will have more unofficial support. Is the GCam on S23 on par with Pixel 7 Pro? Thank you.

Hello!

My goal is to use the buttons of my Bluetooth remote as shortcuts when I'm drawing with Ibis Paint X on my Moto G5.

I was looking an app that allows you to emulate a keyboard, but I only find how convert a gamepad into a keyboard and not viceversa.

Do you guys know anything that could help me?
[General Questions and Answers] Renate:
This is a deep subject with lots of possibilities.

You could use (or modify) your Bluetooth device to send keyboard, gamepad, consumer control or custom GATT.

You could make an app to convert custom GATT to any of the above or Android intents.

You could mod the the drawing program to accept any of the above.

With a custom .kl file you can convert a standard input to some other Android KeyEvent.

I don't like having an app just to do translation.

It's better if your BT remote just works.
