[Q] Unable to switch on Location settings on Kitkat - General Questions and Answers

Dear forumers, I'm having a problem turning on my location settings of my Motorola Atrix 2. Before this everything was fine, till I transfer all of my old SD contents to the new one I bought. After switching on the phone on my new SD, the GPS and WIFI location service are inaccessible. I remembered it pops up a box asking "Google will take the location information for something something" and I pressed disagree. Now when I tried to swipe the OFF button towards ON, it will force itself to the OFF position no matter what I tried. Clearing the 'Settings' data in Apps failed too.
So now I could not access it anymore. I even tried turning the GPS on using widgets and apps(that require me to turn on location) but to no avail. My phone is the Atrix 2, with customROM slimkat 4.4. Kindly help, thank you.

[Q] Is my geolocalization broken?

Hello everyone.
I've been checking something and it looks lik my geolocalization via 3G networks is broken.
I'm running stock unrooted.
I have H / 3G full bars.
I have geolocalization turned on, battery saving settings as the GPS would not locate me in the building and also because I do not want a 10 feet pinpoint nor turn by turn navigation, so battery saving is exacly what I need.
I also have location publishing turned on.
Yet Maps or Tasker are completely unable to locate me....:crying:

Without touching anything it's working again....bah....
Not working once again....sigh....
Actually it's even worse today, when i press the locate me icon it doesn't say unable to locate me, it thinks that Im at work, but I'm not since 3 hours and 50 kilometers...
After a reboot it finds me...how can I check what was messed up? Kinda worrying considering that I've all stock unrooted...
Am I the only one with localization issues over 3g?...

Verizon Wireless Data Usage Screen?

Does anyone know how to get to this EXACT screen? I was messing around with some apps and settings and it popped up when I clicked on something. It's in "settings" somewhere, but I can't find out exactly how to get to it. Thinking it was just an app's settings, I uninstalled all the apps I was messing with and it stays open and functional. Which leads me to believe it is a genuine Samsung setting somewhere in the phone itself.
Also, at the bottom of this screen it says "To disable this SIM, remove the SIM card" but every post I have come across containing these words, do not lead me to the correct screen and/or have a completely different layout.

Watch4 request notification permission despite having permission already

I've got my Watch4 a while ago, after some struggles I managed to set it up just fine. Now, every day or so, I get a notification saying the watch needs permission to notifications to show them on the watch. However, I already have given it this permission. It can be solved by turned off and on the permission, but I'd rather not do this every day..
Anyone know what could be causing this?

This is a common problem with MIUI.
This happens with my Mi Band 5 as well.
The solution to this is to Lock the app in memory. To do so, bring up recents menu, press and hold your fitness app and click the small lock. This will prevent it from being cleared and also prevent the security app from clearing it during boosting.
Also make sure you never clear the app from recents manually.
All the best.

Auto Launch 20 app limit?

So OnePlus is a little excessive when it comes to saving battery...I have to un-optimize and allow auto launch on many apps to keep them functioning properly. Fine, a little tedius but at least I can get around it.
Until today, I tried to allow an app to auto-launch, and apparently there's a 20 app limit. No way to override, it just doesn't allow it and gives the attached message. I can't find anything about this online, has anyone seen this before? How do I override this, or hell turn this stupid "feature" off entirely? All it ends up doing is blocking my smartwatch and other apps from showing notifications after reboot.
This is the function under Settings > Apps > Auto launch. It also pops up if I go into the app properties and try to toggle the "Allow auto launch" switch. Running latest Android 12 OTA.

Usb permission for a web camera?!

Hello,i'm very sorry if this is the wrong location for this question/problem..
I have a Lenovo Android tablet in my car that use as a multimedia device. Now i want to install a backup camera by using usb web camera. Everything is just the way i want it..i even bought a app called Usb Camera Pro that starts on its own when the signal appears,and turns off when the signal is not there.
Only problem i'm having is when i connect the device (web camera,Easycap..whatever) it always asks for a permission to use that usb device..so every time i want to use it as a backup camera i need to click on screen and than start the app on my own! When the signal is not there the app turns off on its own.
I even tried a custom Rom today,and it's the same.
Can someone please help me to turn that off?
I asked the app developer and he told me that is the problem with the system,not his app,and that he don't have the solution.
