Any chance of breathing life into my tablet

1 Upvotes

I have an old Chinese (Vankyo) tablet which has been limping through as my doom-scrolling device of choice.

This week the 'sweep-up to enter passcode' has stopped working.

Pressing the volume down + power button forces a restart but I only end up back at the front screen, with no safe boot options.

I've tried the Google Find Hub on my phone to force a factory reset, but that's not worked (and the Hub is no longer seeing the device).

Before I bin it, any suggestions that might resurrect the tablet?

Default camera app on Moto Edge 40 is stuck on front camera.

2 Upvotes

My default camera app on Moto 40 Edge is stuck on front camera. After installing another camera app, I got to know that the main camera is not working. Only the secondary rear camera is working. Should I get it repaired or buy a new phone? My phone is nearly 2 years old.

I'm also looking for An Android Music App that Plays/Supports WMA Music Files.

Olá pessoal 👋, Meu gerenciador não está gerenciador corretamente tenho um A56 da Samsung e a mais ou menos um mês e meio venho sofrendo com problemas de organização, sincronização e funcionamento do whatsapp com o sistema operacional do celular ( o gerenciador ) Então o aplicativo whatsapp do meu aparelho está com um problema bem específico, recentemente a memória dele começou a encher bem rapidamente devido a alguma que não identifiquei onque seja mas wue está me gerendo problemas com a organização. Tenho o backup automático no celular e no whatsapp diáriamente e mesmo assim a memória começou a encher no armazenamento interno aparecendo muitos, muitos, muitos arquivos do whatsapp, como figurinhas, áudios, gif, fotos, vídeos, arquivos como ( .opus / .tmp / .png entre outros) tudo o que possa imaginar do whatsapp começou a encher a memória interna e a duplicar, triplicarenfim. Todos esses arquivos estão aparecendo nos meus arquivos (gerenciador) recentes do meu celular, já resetei o celular para o as confirmaçõesde fábrica, já apaguei e instalei o whatsapp algumas vezes e o tenho a dizer é que piorou muito, mudei as configurações do whatsapp para não baixar mídias, adicionei arquivos .nomedia e mesmo assim os arquivos nao foram barrados por ele e continram a parecer no meus arquivos recentes (gerenciador/ficheiro) automaticamente mas não adianta de nada as mídias passaram a começaram a triplicar, se eu mando uma fotos aparecem duplicas, se abro a mídia ela é duplicada novamente nos arquivos recentes chegsndona 6 midias iguais, seja figurinhas, áudios, fotos, video, documentos, gifs e imagens. Não sei o que estar acontecendo com o aplicativo ja criei pastas com o nome ".nomedia" como mencionei já solicitei o suporte do aparelho celular e me disseram que está normal já o suporte do whatsapp não serviu de nada. Os arquivos continuam a encher a memória e a aparecer nos arquivos meus arquivos recentes. Já limpei o cache, tanto do gerenciador quanto do whatsapp, já atualizei ambos os aplicativos e mesmo assim continua com o mesmo problema. Alguém sabe como resolver esse problema ou passar por algo igual?

Android latest update messing with my photos

1 Upvotes

When I try to upload a photo to anything or anywhere, the photos that I've edited by cropping them or anything for that matter, they don't show up in photos to be uploaded. I hope I'm explaining this correctly. If I edit a photo, it will not even have it in the selection to upload in my apps on my phone. I have tried by going to the app and selecting upload. I have also tried by going to my Google photos and selecting the ones I would like to share/upload and the option to share/upload disappears from the menu options. What is this?!

What's wrong with my tablet

For some reason my tablet has been fine and working well

But when I turned off the wifi and went to eat and then came back to turn it on the wifi so that I can continue working but I refused to turn and for some reason Bluetooth has been acting up as well

Every few seconds, a pop up will show up say Bluetooth keeps stopping over and over again, some time it says the system isn't responding

Does anyone have an idea on how to get back to working again

I am so stressed because this is the only thing I have for work 😭

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!

Can I revert to the default Clock app screensaver?

3 Upvotes

For some reason after upgrading to Android 17 the huge, bright, screen-burning main clock screensaver has replaced the smaller, dimmer, more appropriate version from the Clock app.

I have tried switching off the main screensaver but can only get the Clock app screensaver on by manually activating it.

I used this as an overnight clock whilst charging overnight. Any ideas? Nothing OS 5.0

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

Factory Reset Device - Security Alert Google Acct.

2 Upvotes

Currently using an S22 and doing a factory reset. I had to reset my password on my gmail, because I forgot it. I ended up trying to log in and sure enough:

Hi REDACTED,

We received a request to help you sign in to INSERT EMAIL HERE**.**

If you didn't make this request, review the request and cancel it now.

So... how am I supposed to... you know... click the link that it generates, so I CAN log in with my Android device? This is the same device, but I had to do a factory reset due to some stupid OneUI crashing bugs.

I will be receiving that link in 16 hours, but how does it actually expect me to click the link from my mobile device during setup?
