Solid File Explorer is 99c to unlock today, half of the regular price. For those who are still suffering the sting of ES File Explorer turning to crap, this is a pretty decent replacement/alternative. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.solidexplorer2

Yeah ES File Explorer is pretty awful as of a couple of years ago. The core functionality is there but all of the plugins serve ads and notifications. If you're grognard enough, there's Total Commander for android, which has been a PC file explorer for a long time: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ghisler.android.TotalCommander It requires plugins for some stuff as well but they're by the same guy and don't have ads.

LifeLynx posted:It's on silent 99% of the time like most people's. Is there a way so my calls always come on at a higher volume ring? Maybe Tasker? It's not an app but if you get one of those Tile bluetooth trackers for your keys you can make your phone make noise by clicking on the tile as well as vice-versa. My elderly father regularly "loses" his keys, wallet, and phone so we've got a Tile on his keys, a slim one in his wallet and we can use them to find his phone. I also shared the tiles to the app on my phone so I can find them, too. Fair warning, the Tile devices are made to be replaced every year for like $20 each (less if you buy a multipack) so they super seal them up with the battery. Almost every time we've had to find something of his it's in a coat or pants pocket he forgot about, but he's lost car keys before and those are $300+ to get replaced at the dealership so it seems like the Tile giving us even a chance of recovering them makes it worthwhile.

Nah, facebook is entirely for the elderly to keep track of their relatives.

seravid posted:Can I set up an old phone (OG Pixel) to record video indefinitely? At least six hours, connected to a powerbank. Low-res is fine and it would only have to record to its internal memory. I've used this app for that in the past: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pas.webcam&hl=en_US It's been a couple of years so I can go by the mostly positive ratings that indicate it hasn't become garbage.

Vykk.Draygo posted:Are you some sort of Motorola product tester or what? I just have a lot of moto g and moto e's from doing the get-paid-to sites a few years back. Stuff like perk or swagbucks or whatever they were selling advertisers to play videos on at the time. Most of them are defunct or don't pay well enough to keep most of the phone farm on now, but there are a couple of sites left that pay a little bit. Over time every phone paid for itself multiple times over but I'd no longer recommend doing it.

Max Coveri posted:Anyone use this Twitch client called Twire? It's on F-Droid as "Version 2.9.2 (522) suggested Added on 2020-12-24" which I haven't heard anything particularly negative about as a third party apk site for devices with no play store. I'm not sure if that's the version you're having problems with, though: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.perflyst.twire/ The twire github links to F-Droid as a place to get it.

Saukkis posted:Oh yeah, it does have the "Free up device storage", but of course his Google Drive has been filled by photos since forever and he has enough money problems without adding upgrading Drive storage, I would probably need to pay it. To make this solution work conveniently it would probably need the 2TB subscription to have room for his full photo collection, I would loath to pay that much just to solve this silly problem. I might be willing to set up a Nextcloud server, but I haven't seen evidence the Android clients can do the automatic moving instead of normal syncing. I solved the issue for my dad doing the same kind of stuff by getting the basic google one subscription. It's 1tb and $20/year. If it had cost more I'd have done some tedious bullshit with a Pixel 1 as an in-between file uploader due to the unlimited google photos uploads they have.
