    SSH and Telnet apps?

    Is there a port of PuTTY or something similar for android for times I forgot the laptop and need to connect to something via the Wifi? Preferably something without ads? The Mac had a public domain Telnet client since the mid 1990's as well as free SSH terminal programs. I've used PuTTY for over...

    Easy way to remove photos from backup and phone

    The backup is already made and on the hard drive, I'm seeking an easy way to get rid of the stuff I don't need anymore without having to go through everything twice. I've already moved everything I want to delete to a separate album/folder on the phone, now I just want an easy way to remove...

    Easy way to remove photos from backup and phone

    I have to take a lot of photos at work and email them to bosses/clients. I can toss these useless photos after 3 months. I regularly back up my photos to my computer hard drive via USB. Is there an easy way to make a list to have windows deleted them from the backup as well without have to...

    Simple magnifying glass app

    I had an app that could let me use my phone as a magnifying glass. Then it updated and introduced an annoying beep whenever it refocuses that can't be turned off, ignores the volume settings on the phone, and beeps with the speaker even with headphones plugged in. Can somebody recommend an app...

    How to connect the phone to Windows XP (need drivers)

    Well, then you have the odd case of the cable working for the Windows 10 desktop and a second laptop with a dead battery (if the charge lasts less than 5 minutes, barely enough to boot the computer, I call it dead. Still useful to save your work if the power goes out, but that's about it), but...

    How to connect the phone to Windows XP (need drivers)

    One, that doesn't answer the question, I'm trying to get the phone to connect so I can access the files like it is a flash drive. I didn't see the need to outline ALL my reasons. Two, what e-mail clients for XP still work with Gmail? Thunderbird doesn't support the latest oauth2 authentication...

    How to connect the phone to Windows XP (need drivers)

    I needed a laptop to use PUTTY on short notice. Unfortunately I haven't needed a laptop since 2011, so all I have are a couple of ancient XP laptops. One of which I was able to connect my Galaxy S9 and can still connect my S105G to, but the battery is dead. The other one I got second hand when...

    Missing Google contacts, how to restore from Thunderbird

    I just noticed a bunch of my contacts are missing from my Galaxy S105G phone. A while ago I used the "CardDIV" to try to sync with Thunderbird on my Win10 Computer when the previous plugin I used stopped working. https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1361285 The missing contacts are still...

    Getting NextRadio to work on S105g after updates

    Last year I stopped being able to use my S9 because it didn't support VoLTE. I selected an S105G as it seemed to be the most powerful phone that still had a headphone jack. I was able to use NextRadio app until around August or September, then a mandatory update that upgrade to the latest...

    Phone recommendations?

    I just found that the A52 doesn't have FM radio, which is why I want a headphone jack. Any other suggestions on phones? It's hard to figure out what phones are as good as the old S9, since it seems everybody talks about screen size and the camera. I don't care about the camera, 3mp camera should...

    Phone recommendations?

    It's a 1-piece holster. Fairly new. I used the phone as an electronic Swiss Army Knife at one temp job from March to August last year on a temp job migrating computers from win7 to win10 and I kept needing to whip it out to scan a bar code (much easier than writing down the long, gibberish...

    Phone recommendations?

    Could it be because I logged in at Androidcentral when looking at articles on enabling VoLTE on an S9 (the option in the article on the main site doesn't appear on my phone) but did not log in again with clicking on the link to the forums? Are they separate logins? In any case, I'd like...

    Phone recommendations?

    OP here. I'm on Consumer Cellular. As for registering, I don't understand why it showed I wasn't registered. I logged in, made the post, and it showed up like I wasn't logged in. I'm using a SM-G960U model s9.

    Phone recommendations?

    Yesterday my phone stopped making voice calls. I called my carrier, and they said they finally took down the 3G tower and that my Samsung Galaxy S9, which reports model "SM-G960U" does not have VoLTE, so I can no longer use it as a phone. I'm pissed because I just got it two years ago and...

    Is WebEX a huge battery drain compared to Xoom?

    I only got a Galaxy S9 on closeout last November, so I don't have a lot of experience with it. I recall I was in a Xoom meeting around then that lasted almost two hours and the battery was down by over 40%. Today I had a job interview using WebEX and the battery went from 100% to 74% in about 28...
