    User Land says "starting service" and hangs

    I installed UserLand on android 10. I chose Ubuntu. It never goes farther than the opening screen with the list of options. All suggestions welcome

    Question My Android 12 phone will automatically POWER UP from a COMPLETE SHUTDOWN to ring an active alarm. Does that mean phones no longer power off?

    There's a milder solution than the hammer : the screwdriver. On youtube, search "how to change the battery on a <your device name>". Watch carefully, put your cat in another room and have a go :). You could mess it up, but as you are no longer using it, it should not matter too much. Be extra...

    Question Problem with Android mobile device suddenly waking me up at sunrise

    Open all your clock apps, one by one. Set an alarm for 2 minutes later, and wait. When the alarm rings, if you recognise the tune which woke you, then this is the guilty app.

    Where is the grid controls for icon position, please?

    I would like to put the icons a bit closer together. And also to make the screen display the name of on-screen folders. I got myself a phablet because I can't see anything on a smartphone screen. I found how to make larger text and larger icons, but larger icons come with more space between...

    How to view all files?

    Hi, I'm new to Android, please forgive me this silly question. How can I view all files? I don't mean just music or video files, etc., but also the software files (even if un-editable). I tried file manager apps, they only show the music, video, etc. folders. I tried plugging the device...
