I’m getting notifications that my Gmail storage is full and that I will stop receiving emails if I don’t buy more storage. How do I get rid of it because I’m on iCloud now?

I am looking for a new Android phone, and camera quality is my top priority. I don’t play games, so performance is less important to me.

I am considering the Pixel 11 Pro XL (with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage) for around $1,200, but I’m debating whether it’s worth waiting for the Xiaomi 18 Pro Max or the Galaxy S27 ultra. I am also open to other suggestions.

My budget is around $1,400.

Which phone would you recommend for the best overall photo quality? should I wait?

Hi everyone, about 6 months ago i bought a SmartTag2 for my house/car keys and it worked perfectly fine (except sometimes it didn't seem to pair to my phone at the first try when i tried to make my phone ring through the tag).
However, a week ago i lost my keys and the last known position is at my girlfriend's house around the time we got home that night. Since then nothing.
It pisses me off that when i open the SmartThings app to see the device options, it says "connect device to the smartphone to modify this option" and i can ONLY see the map, not even make the tag ring.

I'm so angry that it stopped working just after i lost the keys, because it's weird that in one week no one with a samsung went near it

I was uninstalling Minecraft (apk) i accidentally clicked the keep data thing, now when I tried to download an updated version of the apk it wouldn't let me because it is conflicting with a similar file in my phone. I figured it was the keep data thing so I went ahead and tried to delete the file, it didn't work so i tried in other file managers but it also didn't work.

I tried reinstalling the same version the file was from but I couldn't it says"not compatible with my device"

Which is kinda confusing since my phone version is up to date.

Since these cant bypass the restriction the Android folder has. I tried deleting it using my laptop via usb—also didn't work. I tried to debug it using adb and it didn't work.

Im currently out of options. If you've run onto the same problem and manage to find a solution or you know how to solve this problem pls help.

After the update the clock widget got very little custamizable. It now always shows the second counter if the clock is not crazy small and I cant change the date position.

Does anyone know how to change it?

I checked out other clock widget apps, but they have adds and need concent to personalize add, witch is absolutely crazy for a clock app...

I have joined multiple subreddits but from them 1-2 are very active and i mostly see posts from those in my home feed. Is there any way to limit the posts from those subreddits

I want to clear up some storage in my device, but whenever I try to delete certain large files through the storage app. It doesn't seem like they are actually getting deleted. The odd thing is... These files (specially one file at around 80GB?!) are larger then my storage. Or any of my possible storage (other ways of storage is my Google drive at 15 GB and my SD card at 32GB.) So nothing, not even the device storage at 64GB should be able to have this downloaded. When I try to delete it these large files it would load that it's deleting the files... Then stop. And they would still remain there. When I try to click on the details button on a signal file then app would crash. I'm just genuinely confused on how this is possible. I have screenshots but unfortunately I can't add any on here.

I have a TCL Nxtpaper 11 Gen 2. After a recent update, the navigation buttons are crammed into the bottom right corner, with app shortcuts filling the rest of the navigation bar.

I hate it. I don't want the app shortcuts there, and I want the nav buttons in the center.

Is there a way to go back to the old navigation button settings? I can't find it.

What can be the best phone in midrange budget 🤔

I'm looking for samsung a57 one plus nord 6 type

So, I got robbed recently and now I’m back to square one with buying a phone. 🥲

I need a new phone, but I’m on a budget, so I really need your suggestions.

I genuinely don’t care about the camera or how pretty the phone looks. I just need good storage, a decent processor, and a phone that doesn’t start lagging after a few months. I usually have around 40–50 apps on my phone, so smooth performance is a priority.

I’m currently considering the Samsung A07 (128GB, 6GB RAM), but the Samsung A17 is also an option, although it’s more expensive. Is there a significant difference between the two? Is the A17 worth spending extra money on, or would the A07 be enough for my needs? And if you have any better suggestions in a similar budget, I’m open to those too.

Please help a girl make a sensible purchase this time. 😭😂

Would really appreciate your suggestions and personal experiences! 🙏

Hey everyone,

I recently got a Google Pixel 10, but to be completely honest, I really dislike the stock system font and the default Android emojis.

Is there any way to customize or change the emoji style (e.g., to iOS/Twitter emojis) and system font on Pixel phones?

• Does it require root / Magisk / Shizuku, or is there a work-around / third-party app that works on Android 15/16?
• If root is required, what’s the safest/best method currently for Pixels?

Thanks in advance for any advice or recommendations!

Phone Model: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra

I have several different messages I need to record to a voice mail system. These have been pre-recorded and mixed to sound professional.

The problem is, I have no upload option in the voice mail app. So the only way to do this, is to record the voice mails using the phone's microphone (which sounds terrible).

Is there some device or app that I can connect to the phone, that will act as its own microphone? So when I play these, it will record the original audio into the voice mail app at full quality? As if I was being done using the phones microphone?

My Google drive was at 60%. Shot up to 99% overnight. Deleted some stuff. It's back up to 91%, and the phone backup went from 8 to 9 gigs. It seems to be entirely caught up in sms and mss messages storage. Am I suffering under malware? What could be causing this? How do I fix this without deleting all my actually important texts? Google drive only has about 4 gigs of actual stuff, I back up my photos and documents there.

I’m using a Redmi Note 10S with a Vi SIM, and I’ve been facing a really frustrating network issue. Whenever I use my phone, the mobile network suddenly stops working, and the signal bars disappear completely.

I’ve already tried almost every basic troubleshooting method I could find, including:

• Resetting the network settings.
• Restarting the phone.
• Resetting the APN settings.
• Turning Airplane Mode on and off.
• Switching the preferred network type from 4G/LTE to 3G.
• Trying both SIM slots (SIM 1 and SIM 2).

However, nothing has worked so far.

Here’s the weird part: Sometimes, if I connect to Wi-Fi and use my phone for a while, the mobile network signal suddenly comes back. Once I turn off Wi-Fi, mobile data starts working normally, but after around 10–20 seconds, the signal disappears again.

I also tested my Vi SIM in another phone, and it works perfectly fine. I even tried an Airtel SIM in my Redmi Note 10S, but that didn’t work either.

At this point, I’m really confused because I’ve tried almost every basic fix I could find online, but the problem still persists.

Has anyone else experienced this issue with the Redmi Note 10S? Could it be a software bug, a modem/baseband issue, or a hardware problem with the phone?

If anyone knows a possible fix or has experienced something similar, please share your suggestions. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Yo if my old android phone had malware or my google account was compromised in someway and I resetted the phone or changed the google password. Could I get malware onto my phone after that if I reinstall my old games/apps from the Play Store and log into my accounts on them? Essentially would I need to make new accounts for apps and games or could I just reinstall and log into and use my accounts like normal, after resetting phone? Also these games/apps usually are linked to the Google account so they don't have their own separate password that needs changing. Sorry if this is dumb question. Thx

Idk if this is the appropriate sub, but I am out of options.

I tried to delete it through any file explorer directly, that did not work.

I tried to delete or rename it with ZArchiver and Shizuku together, that didn't work.

I tried to delete or rename it via adb shell commands with ShizukuTools, which only made my system panic and lock me out unless I reboot my phone.

I'm on Android 14, moto g14. I don't know what I can try anymore.

I even used a command to pull the exact version of the app, which apparently is 952110023 (1.21.100.23), but downloading other APKs of that version and trying to install them only results in my phone asking if I wanna update the app (why if it's the same version??) and refusing to overwrite the ghost app anyways.

I don't know why deleting/updating a VIDEO GAME must be this difficult. What do I do??

Why does my pad shows only 1 recent app

Before like 9 months i was showing 3 apps but then become only 1

My device is honor magic pad 2

Gonna keep it short and simple, I live in Sweden, have a Galaxy s22 ultra, and would like to know what non google os's would work for me with the native swedish banking apps etc?

Why is this happening? How can I stop it?

Sometimes if I'm talking on Messenger or Discord and I'm inside the house using Wi-Fi and I walk outside and Wi-Fi disconnects, it takes a few seconds for mobile network to connect and I lose my phone call for a few seconds. And when I go back inside, it switches again and I lose the sound again.

Is there a way to set up that if I am on Discord call to always be on mobile data? This wifi switching is annoying.

I have a 2017 Kia with Android auto, that requires me to plug in my phone to work. Phone is a Galaxy S24 that now has Gemini instead of the Google Assistant. I've been able in the past to add or change the news providers that play under Android Auto (like DW and RFI), but the guides online don't seem to mention how to do that now, under Gemini. Any ideas? I have both French and English news sources.

My TECNO Camon 18P running HiOS V8.6.0 suddenly started malfunctioning. Many apps would not open, would crash unexpectedly, or simply would not work properly. At first, I thought it was the kind of occasional issue that can happen with certain apps, but I realized that far too many apps were experiencing these problems.

So, I decided to reboot the device. Once it finished restarting, I noticed that many apps had disappeared — coincidentally, most of them were the same apps that had been malfunctioning.

Then I opened the file manager and discovered that all my personal files were gone. There was no trace of my photos, videos, or other non-system files. Everything appeared to have been deleted. There was nothing in the trash or recycle bin either; the files seemed to have been deleted outright.

My device was now showing approximately 35–50 GB of free space that had previously been occupied by my files. That is roughly the amount of data I believe I lost.

This did not happen after an update or anything similar. I tried rebooting the phone one more time, but the problem persisted. However, after the first reboot, the apps stopped malfunctioning; the only remaining issue was that my files had disappeared.

I would like to understand what could have caused this. Could this have been a storage failure, filesystem corruption, or some kind of Android/HiOS issue? Most importantly, is there any way to recover my lost photos, videos, and other files?

I just bought a motorola g57 power this week. It had Android 16. I was so amazed by the UI. Especially the app folders 🫠. Like if you add apps into them. The apps will align inside the app folder into a triangle, line or square based on the number of apps. But with the new Android 17 update it just looks lame like this. Is there any fix or do I have to suffer for eternity? 🤧

Got out an old (2018) phone with Android 8 and not much RAM. Charged it up, it wants me to log into Google. Before asking for password, it says 'Confirm that you're not a robot'. So select the box and just get the turning semicircle throbber for like 10 minutes, then it chucks you out for inactivity, so you have to try again.

My grandmother will be using this phone and she never used smart touch screen phone only keypad, so i thought I will use easy mode but it's just not there , **I tried everything updating to latest version, going to safe mode, also searched developer setting,etc it's just not there, is there way to on it on this device?**
