    Bluetooth Spen functionality problem

    I wonder if this is just an update bug. Try clearing your partition cache. These are the steps to do this. To clear the cache partition on your Samsung Galaxy Tab S10+, turn off the tablet, then press and hold the Volume Up and Bixby/Power buttons simultaneously until the recovery menu...

    Payment Issues

    A few questions to start with. What phone do you have? Do you have a Pattern, PIN or Password set-up on this device? Did it work in the past and suddenly stop working? You mentioned the update, was that when it stopped working? You talk about the times it failed and mention trying both...

    Question Samsung J6 turning itself off. *Supposed* to be a 24/7 Camera!

    Welcome to Android Central forums. The J6 was released in 18' more than 6 years ago and you're trying to run it 24/7. First we can assume the settings are fine since it lasts for multiple days before going offline. I doubt it would stay on any days if the settings were not good. This leaves the...

    Question Disable Gemini?

    Not sure how long it might last, because Google is killing Assistant and pushing Gemini. I plugged your question into Google and it says that selecting Assistant for your assistant should stop the notification. It went on to offer these instructions. 1. Revert to Google Assistant as the...

    Question downloaded files are invisible in samsung galaxy note 8

    Welcome to Android Central forums. Just a few questions to be sure we're all looking at the same things and on the same page. What app are you using when you attempt these downloads? Where are you attempting to download these files from? I'm just looking for a website, posts in an app, links...

    Here is a link to Google's Assistant Community. I would say they are the experts and if anyone would know they would. https://support.google.com/assistant/community?hl=en

    Who's paying for AI, a show of hands please

    @wakukuzain Welcome to Android Central forums. I'm all for the tech buy-in when it comes to some things but when you mentioned the toothbrush, that just seems unnecessary. I can't even imagine the feedback, on average you brush 5 more strokes on the right side than the left to keep your mouth...

    Question Samsung Cloud not backing up Voice Recordings?

    Has it really been backing them up? I found an article on Samsung's Community site when searching your question and it sounds like Samsung stopped backing up voice recordings last year. I only skimmed the article but you can read it in full here. Let us know what you find.

    Question Media Picker in Chrome

    Based on the statements made and the image provided I'm calling shenanigans on all of this. The image included shows the storage being used on the device by the Chrome app, Media Picker is not related to these other things. It's not storage or a storage location and it doesn't store anything. It...

    Question Can't stop VLC from playing

    What are we on Android 17 these days. I wasn't saying that there was anything wrong with your phone just that I thought it would be a little closer, maybe Android 14. Anyway, that isn't important. Let us know what you find. That's what's important.

    Question Can't stop VLC from playing

    Not sure why this would spontaneously start but there could be several reasons for this behavior. I'm a little surprised to see that your S21 is only running Android 13, I thought it would be on a little higher version but a system update can cause this type of thing (bug). To correct issues...

    Question Blackview BL9000 OS

    Welcome to Android Central forums. This device is only a year old, they usually last at least a few, even the budget ones. It sounds like you're looking for a root solution for your phone but maybe that isn't the best idea. Root if you don't understand what you're doing can cause serious...

    Question Prevent notifications via Bluetooth?

    Look again at your BT option. Following mustang7757's instructions, pull down from the right corner of the screen to show your quick settings panel. Press and hold the BT button until the connection screen appears. Below the selections there are two options, Details and Done. Touching Details...

    "By the way" idiocy in AA?

    This may sound crazy but have you just tried using the mic button on the wheel once to see if it is like many of the other tips and suggestions and goes away after you've used it once? B. Diddy's find of other articles and forums talking about this may indicate that it's an unsolved bug so it...
