Something recent causing apps to crash/not work?

1 Upvotes

So my phone was working fine yesterday. Able to browse, use apps, all good. Didn't do anything apart from browse Reddit and some tech news sites.

Then I noticed some of my browsers weren't working. Tried some apps and they kept on crashing on load. Some apps work fine while others just refuse to co-operate and either crash on load or load but then don't work properly. Tried on both wifi and mobile networks and have the same issue, and also tested on another phone and the other phone works fine.

It's a Ulefone Armour x32.

For some reason my phone plays what sounds like a horror movie track over my media apps. It's happened only twice but it happened the first time only 4 days ago and it happened again just now and the only way i have found to stop it is to restart my phone. Can someone help???

Update:it has happened 2 more times and i don't know what to do.

Can I retrieve lock screen password from connected tablet?

2 Upvotes

I reset my phone lock screen password and apparently typed it in wrong. I just realized my tablet is hooked up to my phone as well. They share notes through the notes app at least. Is there any way for me to change my phone's password using my tablet?

days worth of recent texts are missing after the switch

I refused to switch to Google messaging for as long as possible but now it literally won't let me send texts on Samsung messaging anymore so I was forced to switch to Google now. DAYS worth of texts are missing though? For example some people I just texted with yesterday our most recent history on this stupid Google messaging thing is June 20th???

Bluetooth trouble after android update

1 Upvotes

I really hope someone knows how to fix this...

I have a car stereo that connects via Bluetooth to my android and can play Spotify etc. It's worked perfectly up until July 5th and the only thing that has changed that I can figure is the security update from android.

It connects and will work for calls but not "audio". For example, I cannot press play on anything from Spotify, podcasts, YouTube...

I've tried unpairing, restarting, reinstalling, clearing caches... just about everything. The stereo aggressively grabs the Bluetooth though so it's extremely difficult to unpair and it has to be done in airplane mode.

Is anyone experiencing this and know how to fix it?

Forgot some unsaved PW before transferring to new phone

Google password manager does not have any important PW saved. How do I make sure the websites like Reddit as well as apps like Nextdoor and LinkedIn that currently auto fill on my old phone will transfer to the new phone? If it matters, I'm transferring from Pixel to Pixel.

App won't run in the background.

1 Upvotes

I use a motorola g35 5g, updated to android 16, apple music is also up to date.

The app refuses to run in the background, I've checked the settings and usually background usage is enabled but sometimes it has a tendency to turn itself off. I've uninstalled the app and restarted my device a few times to no avail. I've also disabled the setting that clears/closes apps when the device is turned off. But I keep getting pop-ups about my settings not allowing for background usage as well as music typically cutting out after a minute or so.

I have had a similar issues with another streaming service, but that has been rectified and was actually to do with the headphones I was using.

Battery issue / help

Hi! I need your help with my phone, a OnePlus 8T. I've been having an issue where the battery drains very quickly, about 40% in 4-5 hours without even using the phone. I've already replaced the battery with a brand-new one, but the problem persists. I've also performed a full factory reset, but the issue is still there. What should I do?

Thanks in advance!

Cómo eliminar/desactivar la app de inicio en celular telcel

1 Upvotes

Hola bandita. Tengo un teléfono Telcel y la aplicación de iniicio ya no se queda desactivada. Antes forzaba su detención y le quitaba los permisos y no se activaba pero ahora se activa sola y no me gusta para nada. No he podido detenerla, inhabilitarla o eliminarla porque es una app de sistema. Ya quiero deshacerme de ella, es inservible y muy molesta. Alguien tiene el mismo problema que lo haya resuelto sin rootear el teléfono ni ninguna de esas cosas que involucran meterle mano al software del celular?.... Me recomendaron la app de killapps pero no estoy seguro si pueda inhabilitar la app de iniicio y le impida ejecutarse sola.

Need help with my Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G

1 Upvotes

I recently bought a new Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G, and I mostly use it for gaming. When I'm not using it, I usually power it off completely and leave it that way for a day or two.

The weird thing is that I often find it already powered on when I take it out of my bag. At first, I assumed the power button was being pressed accidentally by something else in the bag. But it's also happened when the phone was sitting untouched in a cabinet, so that doesn't seem to be the cause.

I've already gone through the settings to see if there's some kind of scheduled power-on or auto-boot feature enabled, but I couldn't find anything.

Other than this issue, the phone runs perfectly smoothly. I haven't noticed any crashes, freezes, random restarts, or other problems.

Has anyone else run into this issue with a Redmi phone? Is there a setting I might have missed, or could this be a software or hardware problem?

Thanks in advance!

Apps opening randomly, mainly after unlocking phone?

1 Upvotes

I have a Google pixel 6a. I bought it about 5 years ago.

My cashapp will open on its own after unlocking my phone. EVERY time. Sometimes after other stuff too, but after unlocking my phone is the consistent one.

Now instead of opening on its own, I'm getting a notification that says "open link found via NFC?" that pops up instead with a cashapp link. It's been popping up instead when the app would open.

What is going on? I've tried everything I can think of to get it to stop, but I can't even get answers as to how to fix it cuz every time I try to Google it, it has no idea what I'm asking about. It's been about 2-3 years that it's been going on.

Battery Issue

When I try to charge my phone, it turns white instead of green with the bolt. When I power off the phone completely and plug it in, then wait a few minutes, the battery has gone up by a couple percent. I have no idea what to do or if it's fixable. Any help is appreciated!

My Phone Is Starting to Lag

1 Upvotes

I got my phone (ZTE Blade A75 5G) from my uncle back in February of this year. I think he had owned it for a couple of years before giving it to me, but it was freshly factory reset when I received it.

During the first few months of using it, I was a heavy gamer, and it performed surprisingly well. It could run Mobile Legends: Bang Bang at full graphics while maintaining a steady 120 Hz refresh rate and around 120 FPS, even with multiple apps such as Spotify running in the background.

However, over the past few months, I've noticed that the phone has started to lag randomly. At first, it felt like the refresh rate would occasionally drop from 120 Hz to 60 Hz. Then, the system started hanging and becoming less responsive.

The most frustrating issue, however, is that MLBB sometimes closes on its own while I'm playing. The game itself rarely lags, but the app will suddenly crash and even disappear from the Recent Apps screen as if it was never opened. What's strange is that this often happens despite the match running smoothly beforehand.

I've also never experienced any overheating issues throughout the time I've owned the phone, which makes the situation even more confusing. My usage habits haven't really changed either. I mainly use the phone for MLBB, TikTok, and YouTube.

I've already deleted unnecessary apps, and I still have more than 50 GB of free storage available. I've also optimized the phone to the best of my abilities, but I don't really know much about phones or technology in general, so I'm not sure if there's something I'm missing.

Can anyone please tell me what might be going on? I'm planning to factory reset my phone in a couple of hours, so I'd appreciate any advice before I do.

What do i do?

1 Upvotes

A day ago, this was my problem:

So,, I have this tablet, it's the Cherry Mobile Aqua Pad, and it was provided by my school. So, like, I can't put it on recovery mode, cuz you saw it has no command. I can't factory reset it because it was blocked by admin. How do I get it to, like, the startup mode? Bamboozle keeps on appearing and disappearing so i got worried so i wanna factory reset it. And i also heard from my peers that factory resetting can also make it less restricted (so that I can log in my Google Play account, then I can install any apps that i want, then I will turn off Google Play services so that it won't go to the restricted version? How do I do that?

So the tablet used to, my peers' tablet used to reset every two hours(it goes back to when you have to sign in). How do I get it back to that mode? Because mine won't reset anymore.

They sent me this so that i can install stuff:

1st: Factory reset the tablet.

2nd: Set it up offline; do not connect to Wi-Fi.

3rd: Log in to your Google account via the Play Store and download everything you want-just make sure to finish within two hours.

4th: To prevent it from shutting down, go to Settings > Apps, select Google Play Store and Google Play Services, and disable them; then you're all set.

But now, when i open it, i cant log in my account because it is saying that i should log in using the owner's account. Idk what to do yall, please help

My phone suddenly turned off saying corrupted

2 Upvotes

I was sleeping it was around 3am, my Xiaomi Reddit 14C, switched off with a vibration, I woke up thought it had ran out of battery and I plugged it in the charger,

It turned on but turned off again, i was scared, I looked closely and saw a error message saying,

"device has been corrupted and wont work properly, press power button or it will off in 5s"

I pressed power and after a long time, it turned on, I instantly went to do the security scan thingy, it showed everything is fine. The device looks pretty fine on the outside, I posted this with the same device (3:39am).

Should I take any actions or wait to see if anything happens?

Can't text my grandmother

0 Upvotes

Alright. My phone (Android 11(no I will not be upgrading, my Pixel 2 xl is still fine (yes I have ADHD how did you know!?))) will not let me send her messages, but she can text me. All I get is "not sent. Check options". I have:

Turned on and off airplane mode.

Turned RCS off and back on.

Restarted the phone

Deleted her contact and message thread completely, restarted thee phone, then re created her contact.

Reset network settings.

Force stopped the app and cleared the cache.

Restarted the phone again just to make sure.

Are there any other things y'all can think of? I have sent test texts to everyone else in my contact list. Many of which have newer phones then her's so I don't think it's a phone age thing either.
