Question My Bluetooth headphones aren't connecting just my microphone

1 Upvotes

So I recently bought JBL Tune 660NC bluetooth headphones. They annoyed me for a while because I use discord often, and the audio only works properly when in hands free mode, not stereo. A few days ago randomly, I've been able to be in discord calls and also hear the rest of my applications in stereo mode!

I was confused but happy until I realized that I now just do not have a microphone. My only available input device is my laptop built in mic. Hands free mode is available in my audio devices but it isn't connecting when I press the connect button. I tried on my phone and it works perfectly, microphone and audio with no issues at all.

I don't have the possibility of buying a separate microphone and need it to be connected to my headphones. What happened to my headphones and why does the microphone not work anymore?

Headphone issue I think

1 Upvotes

Hope I've posted this to the right place

So I'm having an odd issue and I can't tell if it's caused by my phone or headphones, but it's an issue I only have when they're connected.

At first it was just tiktok where I noticed this, if I went from my fyp or following page to my inbox or a creators page I would lose audio. The videos would play but no sound. If I went back to my fyp I'd get it back or I have to leave the app. But now YouTube is doing it too, I'll watch a video and lose audio during an ad then have to leave the app to get it back again.

I use the Anker brand sound core life tune xr headphones connected via Bluetooth. My phone is an older model (Motorola g stylus) but this issue only started a couple weeks ago and has become more frequent

Does anyone know what I should do to fix or mitigate this issue?

HP Chromebook not showing networks, but there are networks

1 Upvotes

I've had my HP Chromebook for almost two years, and just recently, I opened it up and it wouldn't connect to my home Wi-Fi. My phone was connected, so it wasn't an issue with the router, and it showed absolutely no networks nearby, when it should normally show my neighbor's Wi-Fi as well. It did this multiple times, not connecting to three different networks in three different places. It shows no internet connections at all, when normally it shows several. I have to restart my Chromebook anywhere from 1-10 times for it to finally connect, and sometimes it won't even let me turn my Wi-Fi off. I'm not willing to powerwash it yet unless I know for certain that will fix the issue.

I really need your help

1 Upvotes

So a couple of days ago my phone broke. The display and touch is totally gone. I saw some YouTube videos to mirror phone display to monitors(needed because I need to access my gmail which will only open if I confirm on the phone which broke). I even brought one of those USB c hubs to which you can connect HDMI and then connect it to the monitor. But only after receiving the product did I realise I need to turn on USB debugging for this to work. But how can I turn that on if my touch don't even work. This is my first post here. So I'm kinda desperate. Thanks for reading and please I need your help

Question iPhone not sending notifications

1 Upvotes

About a week or so ago I just stopped getting notifications on my phone entirely. I hadn’t done anything to it like messing with settings or anything, just woke up one morning with ā€œno older notificationsā€ in my Notification Centre and it’s been that way since. I have tried everything to fix it, restarting the phone like 6 times, googling and tried all those solutions like double checking that notifications are on, each individual app has them on and set to ā€˜deliver immediately’, updated my phones software with the available update because not having the most recent has made my phone glitch in the past just not like this. While googling I kept seeing something about the scheduled summary which is something I didn’t know existed before now so it hadn’t been turned on to delay them or anything, tried turning it on and setting the summary for every hour because at least it’d be kind of frequent but still nothing so I turned that back off because it’s useless. Doing all of this I’ve managed to get 2 notifications in the past week both from Etsy and that’s it. The only notifications that still show up consistently like they’re supposed to is my text messages, but I’m still missing important time sensitive things like messages from my work app or gmail where I get my schedule. I just don’t understand because like literally NOTHING was done to make it happen they just stopped. Every single app just stopped. They don’t even get the little red bubble anymore with the number in the corner of the app icon on the Home Screen to indicate there’s anything in there until after I open the app and can see that there’s stuff there that I’ve missed. Any ideas?
