Lost stock camera icon

After rooting my 8T I lost (surely my fault) the stock camera's icon.
I still can use it by double clicking the power button (I found this option somewhere) but it would be nice to have the icon too.
PS I mainly use the GCam but nevertheless I'd like to find this damn icon
PPS sorry for my poor tech english

Is it in the "hidden space"? Go into the app drawer and then swipe right. Just an idea.

Thanks Good idea but no.
It's not there.
It exists because I can use it, but don't know where!

Because not sure how you did it, try "freeze" then "unfreeze" by using app like OandBackupX or TitaniumBackup. Or run camera once, call recent app, push and hold on camera, tap app info, disable camera and wipe data then enable.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If it still not show up, and you don't want to wipe/rebuild system. You can use some shortcut manager app crate a shotcut icon to call camera.

Thanks!
One of the two worked.
They called me on the phone and I went in auto-mode, so I can't tell which of the two!
Camera reappeared but with the name of "foto pano"!
BTW now I got the link.

Question Chrome download location

Is there a way to change sownload location?
When I download files it goes under /data/com.android/download folder instead of simply /download folder.
From Chrome settings there's no way to change it

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Open up settings, in the search bar type "sites and downloads."
Click on it (it should flash) and scroll down until you find sites and downloads.
Click on that, you will see, "save downloaded files to."
You can't change it from the downloads folder though. All you can do is create subfolders within the downloads folder.

That's setting for Samsung Internet app. For Chrome all you can do is to prompt you where to save which you did already

Yeah, I tested it. It didn't change my download location.
The download location is an Android thing. Microsoft Edge has the same restrictions as Chrome. I can't change the download location.

Nor can I change it for Firefox.

Question Possible malware?

I've started getting this notification saying "free games. Hot popular games! Play now for free!" When I long press for more info on the notification, it disappeared and a message pops up saying the app isn't on the list of installed apps. It is a pretty new phone purchased from Poco direct and I only have a hand full of apps installed all big name apps. Any thoughts?

It should be crapware in the miui, not really a malware.

I could not find this setting. Could you confirm exactly where in settings this option is.

Sure, in my miui 13.0.3 is in:
Settings --> Password & security --> Authorization & revocation
Here screenshots grabbed from my mobile, sorry it's in italian language, but should give you an idea.

Trying to give an app storage permissions but it wont allow me to

Downloaded and installed godot editor for android it tells me it needs storage perms and sends me to settings i click on godot and gibes me this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So uh how do I give it perms
Specs: Samsung A03 core, Android 11

You can grant with Adb, but otherwise contact devolopers.

The Godot Editor DOESN'T REQUIRE ANY PERMISSIONS.

The screenshot you provided unequivocally says that 0 permissions are required.

this app is targeting API level 30 or higher and requires MANAGE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permissions. try latest version.

Question How to hide blank space in OneUI?

In all built-in apps of OneUI, almost the entire top half is blank to enable easy one-handed use. While the idea is good, the implementation could have been better. There should have been a setting to choose how user wants the default view to look like.
Unfortunately, no Goodlock module currently allows for changing this view yet.
Is there a way to hide the blank space in OneUI?
For example:
Current Default view
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Preferred Default view
Is there a way change the default view of built-in apps?

Maybe with root it would be possible but you would have to edit the settings apk etc.
I would love to remove it also such a waste of space.

Don't think that would work.
Is there a way to send feedback to the Goodlock team?

From within good lock app there's contact us link which takes to Samsung members app

I used GoodLock > RegiStar to hide the Samsung Account menu and there's no blank spot.

For me i like this feature to use the device in one hand
