    Not really new but not charging

    I got another charger, about 13 bucks, and luckily that was it. The Pure is working. However...if a door opens I guess a window's gotta close. The Play is not coming on although it says it's 100% charged. How do I deal with that? I at least want to swap things between them. By the way, is...

    Hidden (I hope) night mode for Moto G Play camera

    Should I just get a night vision apk? Would it even work if this 2021 doesn't have the technology? Do we have to call the $6,000,000 man?

    Not really new but not charging

    Ok, I have invested about $13 in a charger. I wasted a lot of time at walmart looking for compressed air, to no avail. Should I go ahead and try the charger without benefit of the latter? Would it make things worse?

    Hidden (I hope) night mode for Moto G Play camera

    Unfortunately, it's talking about the 2023 model. Maybe if I had that it would work. I guess I'll just have to save those pennies...

    Hidden (I hope) night mode for Moto G Play camera

    Actually, I mean more of night vision. Taking a picture of something astronomical, fireworks, or holiday lights would probably not work very well. According to what I read about the Play, there should be a night mode setting, but I sure can't find it. The object I was looking at I could see...

    Hidden (I hope) night mode for Moto G Play camera

    Yes, it's the 2021 model. I have looked all over for it. I have read the manual, used the camera's own help, etc. Where could night mode be?

    Analog audio attachment detected

    Well, something finally worked. I did put the sd card in this raggedy Moto G Play and I can (almost) forget the Impure for now. I just hope I can get it fixed. After all, it still has about 50℅ of its internal storage left (maybe 15 of 32 gb). Maybe that canned air will work, if I can find...

    I'm planning to take the sd out of the Pure and put it in the Play. I hope that works. Maybe it'll at least buy a little time.

    Analog audio attachment detected

    It's shut down now. I guess it'll never work again. What do I do now?

    Analog audio attachment detected

    I'm pretty sure from what I've read elsewhere that it's the charging port. I tried using the grip end of a flosser and a little bit of dark crud came out of it. Ir's 4% now and I apparently have no choice but to shut off the piece of garbage, maybe forever. Perhaps a clue can be found in this...

    Analog audio attachment detected

    I have but it does no good. Yesterday it was at 60% and now it's down to 12. I had to shut it off in order to preserve what little battery is left. I read that the charger might not be powerful enough and that it's good to switch to 5V 2A. I have no idea how the original charger is rated or...

    Analog audio attachment detected

    That's what it says on the Pure's pulldown screen. There is nothing attached to it except sometimes a charger and that hasn't worked out well. Are these two problems somehow related? How do I charge this awful thing?

    Not really new but not charging

    Now I have two of them not charging at once. Maybe it's no coincidence that they're both Moto. I rebooted the Pure, cleaned the business ends of both plugs, different outlets, the works. What's left to do?

    NFL Red Zone dud

    My friend subscribed to this recently. It has no sound despite my checking audio and rebooting. Now he wants to screen cast to his Panasonic plasma tv. It's a TH-42PZ85U. I have no idea how old it is. When I tried screencast it showed a bunch of tvs to send to, but I'm pretty sure his is...

    Not really new but not charging

    Guess what? Now it's the Moto G Play. I picked it up at 78% (should have been 100) and now it's 68%, not charging. It's a different outlet than either of the others. Also, the side buttons aren't working.

    Not really new but not charging

    It is, but only in a different location. I don't know why that other outlet was ok but now isn't. I guess it's just my usual luck...

    Not really new but not charging

    Well, whaddya know. Maybe this is rhe way to fix something. Threaten it by posting on Android Forums. Then it'll straighten up abd fly right.

    Not really new but not charging

    Now the Pure's pulling that too. It was charging just fine but suddenly it isn't. Last night I plugged it up at 29% (it should have been much higher) and this morning it was 26. I cleaned the charger tip, plugged it into a different outlet, all the usual tricks. It didn't work at all with...

    Goodbye googoo blather

    Amen to that, I don't use their "play store" and there is no way I would sign in to yuk tube. I don't want location or banking either. I have No Root Firewall and InviZible. I guess I must be doing sonething wrong.

    A new era in reading

    I tried sending a couple files from one phone to the other. The result was some kind of html mishmash that ReadEra couldn't "translate". Can I get rid of this drm nonsense just long enough to get a few files across to the new phone? It's for personal use only. I have no intention of selling...

    Goodbye googoo blather

    Thar sounds good except for a couple of things. One is that if I do a factory reset I lose all or most of the good stuff and I've got nowhere else to put it. Two is that I never signed in to the nasty freaks in the first place. Is there some other way?

    A new era in reading

    Yeah, I guess I could do that. The only thing is that although I kind of like Nook, it's somewhat on the big side, at least with all my files, and I was hoping ro get around that with ReadEra. Are you sure I can't just send from Nook to ReadEra?

    A new era in reading

    How would I go about transferring Nook files? Do I just open the app, select something, and try to move it? This would almost certainly be between devices.
