    How to EDIT TEXT FILES from/to the SD card on the ZTE Trek 2 HD, K88

    Thanks chanchan05 I'll look them up. Are they only in the Google Play Store, or also available as APKs you can download to your PC and then install on the tablet from the SD card? Have you tried them?

    How to EDIT TEXT FILES from/to the SD card on the ZTE Trek 2 HD, K88

    Thanks but just the fact of being required to log in to Google just to use Docs, is an intrusion in my view. You never had to log in to Microsoft (at least in the past, ...for many years ! ), just to use Notepad or even Word... Of course I did not mean for anyone to do a search from scratch! I...

    How to EDIT TEXT FILES from/to the SD card on the ZTE Trek 2 HD, K88

    the only app on the ZTE Trek 2 HD, K88 tablet, Running Android 6.01, that could allow writing, "Docs", is forcing me to log in to my Google account to work, which I don't want to do, I don't like for Google to be ever-present, hanging over my shoulder! Please give me a list of text editors that...

    OTG USB support for Samsung Galaxy S4 Active SGH-i537

    Thank you for your reply. So I did get a USB card reader with a flash drive slot, and opened a text file from my flash drive clicking on it in the File Manager on the S4 Active. But when I wanted to save it back to the flash drive, it could not, it could only save in the "emulated SD card" on...

Please tell me if this specific model has full OTG functionality: Samsung Galaxy S4 Active SGH-i537 I have read item descriptions for OTG cables which mention some other sub-models of the Galaxy S4, and I know that these...

    What will hard reset do to Cyanogen mod on HTC phone? will it destroy it?

    This T-Mobile phone has had the Cyanogen mod, is now showing Android ver 4.4.2, which I would like to keep, but it has functional problems. These might be solved by doing a hard reset, but if the rooting and modding destroyed the original T-Mobile Android system, what will happen if I do a hard...

    How to Save App Data to "external" SD card in Android 4.4 ?

    1)- Where can you see the exact Android version a device is using? I read in reviews that my phone uses 4.4.0, but I'd like to make sure. 2)- in the file manager, my phone sees the 'internal SD card' as "USB storage", and the real SD card as "SD card". But the software I'm trying to use...

    Thanks - which is the LATEST version of Android, but PRIOR to 4.0, which CAN STILL access the external card as a normal SD card? 4.3? 4.2? 4.0? or ...? and, past KitKAt, which newer version has now restored the access for the external card, if existing yet?

    How to Save App Data to "external" SD card in Android 4.4 ?

    Using a ZTE Zinger with Kit Kat. (Android 4.4) Android lists the internal memory as /sdcard/ when I'm trying to save app data, and it does not list my external SD card (which is plugged inside the phone) in the [Save As] interface, so I can't save data to it or open files from it using the app...

    How to record music from Android 4.4 Phablet's FM radio?

    Is there a gallery/dictionary of icons used by Android OS and Android apps? Even the icons in this forum are new to me... OK here is a detail of the icons in my phablet's radio app; it seems to me that the one which looks like 2 circles joined by a line at the bottom reminds me of a tape reel...

    How to record music from Android 4.4 Phablet's FM radio?

    practically that is possible, (I could do it from a regular radio that way too), but in this case, it would mean downgrading the digital signal by going thru analog... not my purpose...

    How to record music from Android 4.4 Phablet's FM radio?

    actually, for taking screenshots my phablet has an icon next to the home icon, so that was a snap. As for uploading it, I looked for it in the file manager, copied it to my OTG USB flash drive, plugged that into my Windows PC (sorry, newbie for Android ) and into this forum, there was the link...
