Background: Carbonite Mobile only allows files saved/downloaded to device to be accessed via their app / saved files option.
Problem: I have saved MP3 audio books to my device.* When I click on one, I am only presented with 2 app choices: Google Music & VLC.
"Smart Audiobook Player" is not an option:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ak.alizandro.smartaudiobookplayer
See attached screen shots.
This is a problem because "Smart Audiobook Player" has features specific to listening to audiobooks (saving playback position within an MP3) that other apps don't have.
I assume that there is something that determines which apps are associated with which file types.
On a rooted device, can this be changed?
Is there some piece of metadata in the MP3 that will identify it as an audiobook vs a music file?
NOTE: I looked in the 'reset default apps' menu in Settings > Apps ..
Pls see attached screen shots.
Thanks!

I'm looking for a good (and free) alarm clock app failing miserably in my long search to find one.
I didn't really like G-Alarm and seeing as you have to pay for it, I wouldn't touch it. I recently tried an old app called SpoonAlarm which didn't quite cut it. It was patchy and not well put together. Klaxxon is also a pain to use and get it right.
I found a few but they are all shareware/10 day trial apps, and I'm looking for something that won't bug me to buy it every time I need the alarm to go off.
Just something simple that can play an MP3 or WAV file as an alarm sound.
I've tried the old technique with converting some of MP3 collection into WAVs and dropping them into the \Windows or \Windows\Rings directories. The standard alarm can see them in the list, but it won't let me select them and 'bleeps' everytime I try to choose it. Guess it doesn't like Audacity modified MP3 files and then converting them into WAV.
What alarm apps are other people using?
[freeware]
touch-alarm 1.9.1.2 beta

Only thing I could think of is either put it all in one folder so you only see one in gallery or delete it (of course you wouldn't have it in music player then ).

i save my music on my sd card and I don't have that issue. I do however get the gallary pictures of my movies so if anyone knows a fix for that that'll be awesome

I highly recommend you download "QuickPic". By far the best Gallery viewer I've seen so far.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder&hl=en
In the app, their is an option to "hide" folders. Thats what I did so I wouldn't have to see all my album covers
All my music is in my extsdcard directory.
Also, most of the album art is embedded in the MP3 tags rather than a separate image in a folder, so I do not have this issue.

Since we all know google have blocked cast screen(Miracast/Screen Mirroring) option in Our device, also most of the device,Even Pixel's as to promote their use of Chrome cast instead.. Moreover they has depreciated it due to security issue.. And it may be completely removed in further Android release!
Currently we still have it as a option in the stock rom, Called Cast , but it is of no use.. As there is no option to enable it.
But on some custom roms such as rr it is fully functional!
After many pnc of various apps,i have found a app which can make the miracast work even without root! Yeah! The only thing is you can't Stream your whole Screen To Your Tv/other device... But you can stream local media files, etc.
BubbleUPnP - UPnP/DLNA/Chromecast Control Point and Renderer
You guys can discover other features of the app by ourselves.. i tested casting movies and photos to my tv .
By default the app has some triall features.. you will have to purchase premium version of it to make all features work.
So that it! Though you can't mirror whole of you screen,bt something is better than nothing :blush::+1:

Hello.
I have had the PowerAmp app installed on other mobiles and I never had any problems.
Now with my Honor Magic 4 Pro gives me an error when editing the information of a song.
Indicates that I don't have write access to the files And that allows access.
How much pulse to activate the permission is when the error message comes out.
I have Nova launcher installed and I don't know if it would have anything to do with it.
Anyone else who has this problem?
Best regards.

Sounds like scoped storage raising it's ugly head.
Try using a file manager that works in Android 11/12. You should be able to edit common user (or whatever their terminology for it is) files.
As best I know Poweramp doesn't allow editing the music database unless you grant it access which I strongly advice against doing. Best practice is to use a file manager instead in order to better protect your music database.
I refuse to load Android 11 or 12 on my devices mostly because of scoped storage... blah
The external screen behaves as a regular phone screen, but the inner/main/foldable screen behaves as a tablet screen, which changes some apps behavior a bit. For example Opera shows tabs in that mode, unlike the fullscreen layout of the "phone mode", and Youtube does not go fullscreen when you turn the phone, instead it just rotate the video screen (like a webpage).
Is there a way to force the "phone mode" in this screen? IMO it is not big enough to act as a tablet.

I don't think that setting tells Android that you want phone resolution so that apps present differently. This setting is more for Samsung-modified apps and global settings screens can split navigation, erc.
It was exactly that, unfortunately I also liked the split view in some apps
Thank you Atthorpe.

Right?, I wish they would make it so we could choose which we wanted per app
