    Video still plays on phone screen when casting to TV with VLC

    It used to switch to display an image of the VLC logo when the video was playing on the TV. I don't know if it's something to do with VLC, something to with Android 10 or if it's a bit of both but now whenever I cast a video to my Samsung TV from my phone (Realme X2) the video still plays on...

    Spec me a small cheap android phone.

    OK folks. I want said phone for one reason, The NHS app for tracking the bug! I do have said small android phone, its a 9 year old Sony Experia Arc I use as my work phone. I'm not certain if said app will run on that phone though. I don't want to use my own phone except at weekends when I do...

    Trying to Reinstall Android on a Yoga Tablet

    Hello, My Lenovo Tab 3 Yoga tablet seems to have lost its OS when the battery failed. I have found a file from Lenovo but cannot seem to get the SD card to be recognised when I reboot the tablet into the reinstall window. How should I format the card? Do I just extract the files to the SD...

    Anyone know of a way to stream android audio to PC?

    Hi guys, I'm trying to set up a system that allows me to hear android audio over a different wifi network. It's kind of essential I'm able to do this. Alternatively does anyone know of a microphone I could use to stream the audio back to my PC? Wouldn't mind the phone speaker playing a sound as...

    Samsung Galaxy Tab A - Good for Privacy?

    I am thinking about changing from iPad to Galaxy Tab A 10.1 because I want more privacy and control. I don’t like being followed around the internet and data-raped by Google et al. Given that Android is Google is it possible to shut Google out or change the os to something else entirely? I am...

    Freeing up space on a Nokia 2.2

    It seems the base 16 GB on my Nokia 2.2 is getting rather full. I've got a 256 GB SD card installed, and it only sees 128 GB, but I can't seem to move much stuff to it. I've managed to move some apps, but I've been through them all and most won't move so I've freed up very little space. What...

    Automatic ringer volume setting on Android?

    What I would like to do is have my Android phone - a Nokia 2.2 - automatically switch the ringer volume to full when I'm at home and automatically switch it to vibrate when I'm not. Can I do this? How? Tests for being at home might be GPS or connecting to my home wifi.

    Apple & Security vs Android/Google

    I've been a long time Android fan (primarily via Samsung devices), very happy with it overall from an end-user perspective and I use a ton of Google services but I've been under no illusions when it comes to the fact that nothing is ever free and I'm paying for these services with my data. I...

    Alexa - toggle on/off listen via a event (Bluetooth device detected)?

    Hello, I've got a third party app on my phone (Note 10 plus) that allows Alexa (Android) to always listen (Alexa Listens - play store), I use this in my car to make calls, change the radio station etc. I'd like this function to automatically turn on only when I'm in the car, I'm pretty sure I...

    Paid for Apps? Flagship phone (Note 10 plus)

    Hello All, I've got a £20 playstore voucher from work, I don't think I've ever purchased anything from playstore, what would you recommend? I'm not that into mobile gaming so will probably lean towards a Video Editor or something similar, is anything worth buying over the free versions? I did...

    Nokia 2.2 - Android Pie - 128 GB SD cards show as 256 GB with 128 used.

    Got an interesting little issue. My Nokia 2.2 seems to think that my 128 GB SD cards are 256 GB cards with 128 GB used. I've tried two SD cards, one known good and one straight out of the packaging that's been on the shelf many months. Both Samsung. What's going on?

    Android, Bluetooth Calls & A Desktop Mic

    I have my phone (Nokia 7 Plus) paired with my desktop machine (which runs the latest KDE Neon) via Bluetooth. I can use the media controls on the desktop to control the YouTube app (and I presume others such VLC) on the phone and I can hear the audio as it is routed from the phone to the desktop...

    Problem switching camera on Nokia 2.2

    I've found an interesting little issue with my Nokia 2.2: I can't switch to the rear camera for photos unless I swipe across to video first and then swipe back. Pressing the Switch Camera button (bottom left) blurs the screen for a moment then keeps the selfie camera active. After swiping across...

    Android - Nokia 2.2 - how to get spoken directions on Google Maps?

    How do I get spoken directions in Google Maps? I've set the route and the phone follows the route and I see directions on screen, but how do I get spoken directions? The phone is not muted. It's paired with my car.

    How to turn off Game Tools on Android?

    Some phones come pre-bundled with something called Game Tools which is annoying because it overlays on top of the soft navigation buttons. My S10e has version 2.5.06.2 already installed but there doesn't seem to be any way to turn it off. There's nothing in Android settings. If you go directly...
