    Question Could zFont3 have viruses?

    I recently bought a Galaxy M34 with 6000 mAh. Its battery endurance was awesome for the first week. Then I started playing around and I decided to set a custom font with the help of the app zFont 3: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.htetznaing.zfont2&hl=en&gl=US I used a normal...

    How to buy a phone without dead pixels?

    It's not easy. There is not any shop that allows me to open the box and test the screen before I buy the phone. Luckily there is one shop that lets me to exchange the phone for another one about 3 or 4 times. So I'll keep exchanging until I get a perfect screen. I am trying with the Galaxy J5...

    How to buy a phone without dead pixels?

    I buy a phone, discover a dead pixel, return it, buy another one, discover another dead pixel... and so forth. Every phone I buy has got at least one dead pixel and that kind of stuff drives me nuts. Even I found that manufacturers consider it as a normal thing and if you haven't got a really...

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    I don't think that turning off automatic time causes problems. And for the first question, yes I am. The way for reproducing the failure means that you have to look at your phone without turning the screen on and wait until it is time for the alert to be shown. How do you know if it is the time...

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    Still I don't know if the failure was corrected at versions newer than the 7.0. I have never had a phone with newer versions for enough time to be able to test this problem.

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    The failure is easily reproduced by waiting for the phone to sound, turn on the screen, or whatever it does to show the notification of the calendar. For you to be able to wait until that time you need to know what time is it, but you can't turn on the phone's screen because that is not a...

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    I don't know how to upload an screenshot but it is very basic. You have to do it exactly like this: - Open the calendar. - I assume that the calendar has got permission to notify and it is configured to do so. - You create an event that alerts right 5 minutes after you get up at the morning. It...

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    The problem is not related to applications. It happens in safe mode as well.

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    And how can an application which hasn't got anything to do with notifications stop them from working? I mean, if an application had issues with a new operating system, the normal would be that the application fails, but not that it makes fail an independent component of the OS. Wow this is so...

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    I have never reproduced the failure above Android 7.0, so I don't know if it could be corrected in 7.1.1 or 7.1.2. I have returned so many phones that it isn't worth a new attempt at this time. You the one with an S8+ I don't understand how you made it to work. I had got an S8+ with the Spanish...

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    I had already tried that but there wasn't success. It seems like all Android 6 & 7 phones are affected. Is this normal? Has Android let its users behind? Even I bought a Windows Phone, and if calendar alarms do work then I say goodbye to Android.

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    I always create reminders locally right in my phone. No, I have never installed a RAM booster nor anything like that. It is Android itself and its damned doze mode which must be closing processes and preventing alarms for working.

    Why don't calendar alarms work?

    I have never had any third party app for saving battery or RAM. I have never turn on any built-in battery saving feature. I have tried with lots of different calendar applications and all of them have shown the same failure (so the failure must be at the OS itself). Surprised? I can't find a...

All of this without opening WhatsApp application and without allowing anyone to see you online! It is very comfortable...

    Why does my phone brick after changing font?

    My Alcatel 7041X bricks every time I replace a system file, not only the font files are the problem. ¿Why does this happen? My device is rooted, ¿that does not mean that I can replace system files? ¿It could be a limitation of the Alcatel company? ¿Should I buy another phone? I can not take...
