I'd like recommendations for a simple list app that allows me to import or copy/paste a text file list from scratch. Must assign a separate checkbox to each imported list entry. Would like a simple checkbox on/off toggle to denote which list items are done. Must sort alphabetically. Google...

My MX10 (not MX10 Pro) 9.0 TV box doesn't seem to support BT at all. No BT in Settings menu, so USB BT dongle won't even work. Am I missing something? Is there any way to enable BT on my MX10 9.0 TV box? 4GB RAM/32GB storage Android security patch level: 12/05/18 Kernel version: 4.4.159...

MiXplorer supports SMB v2 as a low-cost plugin at the Play Store.

My unrooted Moto G4+ doesn't allow me to view anything in the root folder, even after choosing to show hidden files. I've tried several file managers and all gave the same result.

EDIT: I rolled back to the June 2017 update and was able to apply the September update afterwards. But SafetyNet still fails so I must assume it's due to my unlocked bootloader status.

Moto recently released a September 1, 2017 security update for the XT1644. Unfortunately a logo.bin TWRP flash fix made a change to my system partition settings that won't allow me to safely take an OTA update. I'm looking for the OTA in a TWRP-friendly zip so that I can use the OEM Flash.bat...

I was able to cloak my IP by using the ProxyDroid app in conjunction with the SSH Tunnel app as follows: Configured and connected SSH Tunnel as above Configured ProxyDroid as follows: - Host: 127.0.0.1 - Port: 1984 (same local port used with SSH Tunnel) - Proxy Type: SOCKS5 - Global Proxy...

I need help understanding why my SSH tunnel connection isn't hiding my public IP address no matter which SSH tunneling provider I use. Psiphon Pro VPN app cloaks my IP just fine though. Moto G4+ Android Nougat 7.0 (rooted), Google Chrome app, SSH Tunnel 1.5.6 app I made successful SSH...

Would you mind letting me know the trigger and action you used? When I used the set ringtone action for a contacts group, Macrodroid set that ringtone as the default ringtone, which isn't what I wanted. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply B. Diddy. I'll remember to post screenshots directly next time. After more research I think the problem was due to the Pouch Mode feature, which allows some app features such as notifications to appear after pulling the phone out of a pocket or pouch. Connectivity -> Pouch...

LG VS920 Spectrum, ICS. Recently, after booting from regular or Safe Mode, the phone does not get to the PIN lock screen. Instead there's a rectangular screen in the middle surrounded by black space. That middle screen consists of 3 sets of screens that are accessed by swiping up or down. One...

SOLVED: I was able to open a shared/hidden Windows 10 folder from ES File Explorer by simply adding "Everyone" to the list of shared users to that folder in Windows 10. My sharing is password protected so I have complete control of user access. Thanks again for all replies.

Update: - unhid shared subfolder - gave read/write access to subfolder - Windows Firewall was (temporarily) disabled - Temporarily disabled file protected sharing The subfolder icon can be seen in ES File Explorer but still cannot be opened. There must be some fundamental change to Windows 10...

Update: I removed my network share credential from the other Win10 PC: Control Manager -> Credentials Manager ->removed credentials of share name Now the remote PCs can't see my hidden/shared folder without entering the credentials of my Win10 PC (good) My next objective is to access the PC's...
