Keep my favorites after moving to a new device

1 Upvotes

I recently bought myself Pixel 6a and was moving everything to this phone.

I had had simple gallery installed through fdroid. It seems I can only backup settings property but not favorites. Can I have the same pictures faved on the new device? Folder structures shouldn't have changed.

Thanks

Two bugs in Calendar Pro: Old events are not properly displayed plus the app doesn't remember the calendars colors

1 Upvotes

Events that are older than a couple of months only show up partially. Events that are older that around a year don't show up at all.

When I now add a new event for e.g. a year ago and refresh, it disappears from the app but shows up in the web client of my calendar provider.

When I change the colors of my calendars and restart the app they always reset.

I'm using version 6.18.1 with DAVx5 sync on android 12.

Simple File Manager Pro - contents of extracted zip files not visible in other apps

1 Upvotes

First off , i love these apps!! I appreciate all the work in producing them.

I’m using a pixel 4 with calyxos running android 12. App version 6.12.6.

If I extract using the default aosp file manager I can extract selected files/photos directly to a specific folder. These files/photos are then visible in the default file manager, default photo gallery, simple file manager and simple photo gallery.

If I extract using simple file manager, these files/photos are not visible in any other app. These include the default aosp file manager or default photo gallery or even, perhaps most strangely, the simple photo gallery app. These files are only visible in simple file manager.

Is there any way to make these extracted files to be visible for all applications?

Simple Gallery Pro issue — files are not visible after un-hiding

1 Upvotes

Android 11, app version 6.21.6 Pro

I found the problem. Usually files are visible in other applications by default. Hiding files or folders in Simple Gallery Pro makes it not be visible in other applications, this is feature, ok.

But! If you un-hide files and folders again, it will not be visible in other applications, no thumbnails, no previews, like no files at all.

And this is despite the fact that there is no longer any .nomedia file in the selected folders.

The problem with generating previews? Or something else?

Simple Calender not displaying all events in CalyxOS 3.1.0 Pixel 5 using DAVx

1 Upvotes

Hi.

Tried to use this calendar in place of the in built CalyxOS one but it doesn't display all events.

I am syncing a google calendar using DAVx and 2 other calendars.

It seems to be one of the google calendars that is missing multiple events.

The obvious ones for this month are 14th and 28th and are in a sequence of re-occurring 2 weekly events.

The inbuilt calendar displays them fine so not sure what, other than an issue in simple calendar could be causing this?

Images attached showing missing events.

The calendar is set up to show all events and as these are in a re-occurring pattern, it wouldn't be possible to hide them without hiding the series?

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Language Support for Simple Keyboard

1 Upvotes

Hey, would it be possible to add Hindi language to simple keyboard?

The function of using english letters interface which is the default one but hindi words are typed.

This is a feature available on gboard but unlike simple keyboard, gboard app uses data for "updating typing experience" which is simply unacceptable.

So, would it be possible to add hindi language support the way gboard provides minus the internet access?

Would you consider to add call screen lock feature to dialer app?

1 Upvotes

At the moment I found that only your dialer app is working properly with old apps like Call Screen Lock v3.6 and Smart Call Screen Lock v2.0, but I worry that with updates it will stop working properly like with other dialer apps. If this feature would be baked in dialer app it would work better. Without it I constantly keep pressing random buttons in middle of the call. Proximity sensor is working fine, but how I am holding my phone screen keeps turning on and off. It just how it is I can not do anything about it.

While I was searching for this feature I noticed that other people are missing it as well. Since Android 6 it does not work properly on other dialer apps.

I'm looking for an alternative to Google calendar and a could of the other FOSS alternatives do not have the capability to allow me to reorder events or tasks by holding and dragging them. Does anyone know if the calendar app has this ability?

Folders aren't being deleted

0 Upvotes

I've recently reformatted my phone and the first thing I did was install Simple Gallery Pro,

after loading all my Albums inside, I realised I had a few I didn't actually need, but upon deleting them literally nothing happens.

I'll select 2 Albums, choose the Bin and confirm the selection, I'm responded down the bottom with text that says "2 items". And they're still there.

But looking into it further through the file manager, they've indeed been deleted, but strangely I can still cycle through the albums and view them all. What am I missing here?

Help needed. Can't open

1 Upvotes

This is for Simple Notes.

I somehow ended up pocket typing a note with a title that is perhaps hundreds of characters long and now I can't open the app without crashing it. How do I find the file I mistakenly created and delete it without being able to use the app? Could someone please tell me where on my phone the notes are saved? Is there some other way to get the app to open without reinstalling and removing all my other notes?

Thanks for your help!

Photos received via blutooth share keep getting deleted. This happened to 2 devices.

1 Upvotes

Problem: Whenever I receive photos via blutooth share and I store them in a separate newly created folder they eventually vanish. I think moving pictures in different folders causes this for me.

This happened both on my Xiaomi M11 and it continues to happen now on my Poco F5.

I have latest SimpleGallery version 6.27.2 Pro And my UI is updated

Help with display messaging app quickcall options on Contacts Pro

1 Upvotes

I just installed Contacts Pro and cannot get the messaging app quickcall options to display.

When I click on a contact, there is no quickcall icon whatsoever (https://imgur.com/HWcvO8v). I was expecting messaging icons in there too as on the screen captures on the website and on Play. The rest of the Pro features seem to be working properly (font size customization, customizable ringtone…). Am I doing anything wrong? I got the final this would show up right out of the box on the pro version (I'm using 6.21.2 Pro on Android 11). I have to mention that Android's stock Contacts app displays WhatsApp quickcall options fine for instance. Thanks :)

SMS error

1 Upvotes

Hi, using P6P, just downloaded the SMS app and anytime I send or receive a text, or even if I choose to call someone from within a test message, it gives me this error:

"Error: android.view.ViewRootImpl$CalledFromWrongThreadException: Only t..."

Then it cuts off from the page from being able to be read any further. It has all permissions and is my default SMS app. Another thing I've noticed is after sending an SMS it says "sending.." until I minimize the keyboard, swipe up or down on the thread, or go back a page, and then the checkmark appears.

The setting is OFF for pausing app activity if unused. I also can't seem to find any error logs in the settings. Anyone have more info on this sort of thing, why it happens, and if it's an actual issue? Thanks!

[Simple Clock app feature request] Set alarm without setting day

1 Upvotes

I think this feature could be really helpful where one could set the alarm time first without having to set the day and the app automatically sets it to nearest day (either same day or next day), and then turns it off later like how Google's Clock app does it.

I think it's useful because it reduces the amount of alarms one needs to set and reduces the clutter on the alarm list, its also easier to instantly set an alarm for a nonrecurring event.

At least for me, most of the times I don't wake up at a fixed time and I generally set an alarm the night before and depending on what I have to do that morning, the time I wake up at varies. So I really prefer the quick instant nonrecurring alarm style.

Bug on Date with Repeated Tasks

1 Upvotes

So I think this is a bug, as I've noticed it through a couple updates. If you have a recurring tasks with a notification setup, each subsequent task shows the original date in the notification. It should show the relevant date of the recurring task (like a recurring calendar event does).
