There are apps in the store that claim they can show you your ID. Why don’t you try one, and see what permissions it comes with? I don’t think you can install a privileged app directly so this would be a useful test.
Check Out QuickStar in Samsung GoodLock, maybe you can customize the clock in the way you want. I can't say sure, but it gave me some options (for AM/PM at least) I can use that is not neccessairly match my regional settings.
Maybe it has more options for more special regions in this case.
Hmm, I have no clue how to get JUST the date format to show a certain way, whether it's 月火水木金土日, MTWTFSS, LMMJVSD, and pick very specific parts of the locale like that. Is using the "Japanese" way common in some regions in China?
Perhaps related is getting dates to display like 19 June 2024, June 19 2024 or 2024/06/19 without changing your region?
I dont know about mainland China using the seven luminaries as im an American born Hong Konger but as to the reason for me wanting to use it, it basically just boils down to "I like it" / I watch too much anime.
You talked about
"Perhaps related is getting dates to display like 19 June 2024, June 19 2024 or 2024/06/19 without changing your region?"
Could you leave a link to where I can find that setting specifically, I think ive seen that before but I cant find it at the moment.
I don't try to mess with their cloud backup scheme, I import the local backups manually instead. Their cloud backup is so slow and their chat transfer feature is so buggy.
They do, but they don't explicitly allow restoring from local backups directly within the app anymore. However, if you manually move the backups to a new phone or whatever and then fresh install WhatsApp on that phone, you will be prompted to restore messages from the local backup that's present.
Have you checked the official website of WhatsApp? You can only restore local backups if you are on older Android versions. On newer Androids it is only Google backup.
Maybe that's it. My dad's current phone does run an old Android version, so that might be why local backup restore worked. The WhatsApp version was up to date though. I can confirm local backups work on Android 8 and Android 11.
In android 14 most apps background apps are frozen in memory. Just because you see a force stop button doesn't mean its actually doing any work or consuming batttery.
Android does memory and battery management on its own. You also get some options to further restrict apps should you desire but that may break some apps.
Apps don't necessarily stop running unless you do Force Stop. It's always been this way.
In addition, swiping apps away in order to stop them has always been counterproductive on Android. Not only because it doesn't necessarily stop all of the app components, but also because it wastes resources. Android will stop apps as needed when memory is needed. In all other cases it will maximize memory usage in order to minimize CPU and IO making things faster. Stopping apps is only useful in special circumstances like killing a misbehaving app, etc.
You could limit per-app background usage since Android something, but even then it doesn't matter if you close them from the app list. Shortly after the all is no longer in the foreground, it will stop running, all of its components. It might still be possible for it to wake up now and then but for the majority of the time it wouldn't run.
Just because it shows the Force Stop button doesn't mean it's running, merely that at least one of its components is loaded. That can be just about anything. I have apps I know for a fact cannot run in the background that shows the force stop button.
Mainly, it boils down to battery management and the Android architecture. Android apps are very modular, so the Java class for handling push notifications might be loaded but none of its screens or other services would be loaded and it uses negligible amounts of memory. It's way more battery efficient than reloading it from storage, and if the system needs memory it'll clear some caches.
Looks like a notification bar. Just a wild guess, but maybe there's an invisible notification causing it to auto-display. If so, you might be able to fix it by limiting notifications for the app.
