If it's a Samsung tablet you can enable the assistant menu in the accessibility settings which has an on screen sleep button among other things.

Out of curiosity, what do people use file explorers for nowadays?

I was mostly just curious of the advantages over using them over something like Airdroid or the built in file manager if your oem has one.

There are some nice ideas in Google's new messaging apps, but I hope they flop horribly and Google bakes their functions into Android like they should've from the start.

Uthor posted:It will also automatically play the last video I watched if I don't manually close the video, which is super annoying if I just want to look around the app and not watch anything and all of a sudden my phone starts emitting audio. Especially annoying when you have Youtube Red and it starts blasting audio in the middle of a meeting, requiring you to press back 500 times to close it as the home or power button just keeps it playing in the background.

That icon is certainly a bold choice.

Whatsapp became insanely popular because all you have to do is install it, regardless of OS or phone manufacturer, the second you open the app any contact in your phone who has the app installed is available to message. While many competing platforms have adopted this method, for most people one messaging app everyone already has is enough, making it pretty hard for other platforms to compete.

WeX Majors posted:Hey, back with another dumb question about Text Messages. Sms backup, Samsung smartswitch if you're moving between Samsung phones. Motorola had a migration tool, but last I heard they had killed it off for unknown reasons.

Apps can already use their own set of emoji. Whatsapp on Android uses the iOS emoji for example.

What Tunga said, if the memory is not needed for some other task then the OS will keep the app in memory. The issue is when badly coded apps hog RAM they don't need.

beep by grandpa posted:Hey I checked back a few pages and didn't see anything on this. I just got the Galaxy S8 and I love it and after spending so much time setting it up I'm looking for any apps/services I can use to do a full local hardware backup/restore for the phone's internal memory and the sd card in it. I want everything backed up. Samsung Cloud and SmartSwitch should already come installed on your phone.

MikeJF posted:Does anyone know of a reminder notification app that puts tasks into your notifications on a schedule like the usual, but you can't accidentally swipe away the notification, you have to hit the done button, and if your phone reboots, uncompleted reminders restore. Tasks by Tasks.org will do that.

Pipski posted:Is there any straightforward way to unify my volume controls in android, so that when I adjust it up/down it applies to all of them? There is no situation in which I want to turn down just media / ringtone/ message tones contextually and it's just a pointless pain-in-the-rear end feature (for me.) Don't wanna be somewhere quiet, think I've turned the volume down, then receive an email and have that notification still blaring out. If it's a Galaxy phone you can set it up that way. You can use Sound Assistant on Good Lock to tweak what the volume keys do.

deong posted:Speaking of. Google Podcasts is going to be shut down and merged into YouTube Music. I knew this would happen when I moved over from Play Music after they killed that one. I'm not gonna make the same mistake this time, it's only a matter of time before YouTube Music is killed as well.

sirbeefalot posted:FWIW, I've been trying YouTube Music (non-premium acct) as a replacement and it appears to not restrict podcasts in any way that I've found so far. Background play works, Android Auto works, etc. It has an option to enable auto downloading that appears to work, though I don't usually download eps. I don't see much in the way of customizing for downloads, just on or off per podcast. I find myself in the same boat as smoobles. However, I moved to Google Podcasts after they killed Play Music. Moving to YouTube music after that seems like the definition of insanity. Desk Lamp fucked around with this message at 00:02 on Feb 10, 2024 |
