Looking for an app that allows me to easily switch from Bluetooth to phone speaker for videos and such. Lg had a feature built in on the notification panel that allowed me to quickly switch between connected BT devices and phone speaker for audio. I haven't found anything like that on this phone. I have to completely turn off my bluetooth if I want to show a video to somebody really quick. Very frustrating
Please delete thread. After much searching I found it.
Can you share the app details?
Sounds like an interesting use case.
Thanks

Dude. If you find a solution to a problem you've asked about post it instead of just saying you fixed it. That way you might aid others that experience the same issue

Dude, not a single person replied inquiring before I asked to have it deleted . All you have to do is go to the "now playing" tab on the notification panel, and select the speaker you want the audio to come out of.

Is there a way to make it so when I am using my bluetooth headphones with the remote when I skip a song or hit play or stop the screen on my device does not come on and media player does not pop up? This is especial annoying as I listen to music almost constantly. Thank you for any help I have googled this issue and found no solution.
You should do a little more research!
This was answered very recently in another thread.
Where
I have searched if it was answered in another thread I can not find it. Please provide a link. It is arrogant to point out another persons ignorance and not show them how to fix it. Not to mention rude.
Also if you are referring to the two posts saying to use Mortplayer that is not an option as I use SPB Mobile shell.

So you took the time to point that out without pointing the person in the right direction.
I hope next time you need help and can't find your answer someone tells you to GTFO and find it yourself.
Are you sure?

I still want to use windows media player I just do not want it to turn on screen or bring it to the front when I use the remote. This completely removes media player control.

I am interested in this fix as well. I am using a SENSE build -- The Standard builds seem to have these controls working correctly with the touch flo music interface...but I am not willing to go back to the regular touch flo when the Sense touch flo build has so much more to offer!
Not sure if this has been asked yet, searching didn't give me any results anyway - but apologies if its been asked.
HP Touchpad + HP Pre3 connect and the tablet can be used to read text messages etc along with a few other features
So, I was wondering if anyone has fiddled with trying to get Android to connect to WebOS for SMS/Missed call alerts?
closest thing I can think of right now would be using Phone Portal to connect your Motorola device. It uses WiFi and the browser.
Wish there was a way to do that.
Have you tried DeskSMS? It sends your SMS's to your Gmail.
Might be any good?

Nice one! I think that could be a viable option until someone figures out how to either make an app for android/webos to do it, or something more advanced.
I was just about to post this, theoretically it shouldn't be impossible to achieve although I'm far from an expert in the area (read: not an expert at all). I'd happily donate to any developers which could create a patch for it, as I'm sure would many other touchpad owners.

I was reading somewhere else about this, Someones looking to transfer by bluetooth, as any other option currently would no be viable apparently

Yep, I'm expecting a bluetooth app for it.
Must admit i'm annoyed with how restricted the feature is - i mean the car, tv, and pc can all get text alerts from the phone. (Actually that's a lie, the car stopped getting text messages when i went to android)
So i'm sure its doable, its just a matter of getting a dev interested in doing it - unfortunately I wouldn't know where to start.

Port your number to google voice. Then I have txt sent and missed calls going to email.
I use Hangouts, and I like to use the pre-composed replies while at work (especially in a meeting), where I can't do a verbal reply. Does anyone know of a way to customize those replies or add new replies? I didn't find anything specifically in Hangouts regarding that.
This is another one of those things where I don't know if it's a Wear thing, a Hangout thing, or what.

Install the rom that was linked over in the other thread and increase the intensity even more if you like it. Works like a charm

Hello.
I am not satisfied how notifications on my RN 9 Pro are (not) working.
I am often forced to mute phone, and I am not able to look constantly on my phone screen.
On other devices I used nice app called NoLED. I am attaching screenshot from my other device, so you can get the idea why.
Sadly, it is not working with Android 10. Developement is abandoned long time ago.
Is there any app with such functionality which works with Android 10?
[edit]
Partially solved. Call and messages are working. Added apps (messenger, viber, whatsapp) are not working.

Yeah, sorry... but the same Q has appeared in about half a dozen separate threads without solution...which means ppl aren't searching for answers...so I had to answer individually.
Can anybody please tell me what happened to the Google search bar (see screenshot)? Anyone else got this problem?

What "useless"? Searching for a useful answer and not for such a useless comment! Tried to find something in the web. Couldn't find anything regarding my request. Since my last device restart the Google search looks like in my screenshot. Square, simple and without the "G" logo and microphone.

Don't wanna blaim anything nor anyone. I just wanna know if it is normal and if someone else's got the same look of the search bar. Is it kind of new design or is it an ui failure on Sony devices. That's all. Hope some useful answers will follow!?

Yes I know. But it's kinda implemented in the Sony UI. And no one else of my friends with smartphones from different brand got the Search bar looking like in my Sony at the moment. And I don't mean the widget. I am talking about the Sony Homescreen setting option.
That's a Google mandated feature for "Android" phones. A lot of people change launchers to get rid of the search bar. You could do the same to change it.
I quickly switched back to the Xperia Home launcher to take a look and yes my google search bar is the same as yours now. All generic looking rectangle. I tried changing the way it looks in the google app, I tried clearing cache and data of both the google app and the xperia home app, and nope, it stays that way. It maybe a bug introduced by Sony, or it maybe on purpose, we will never know. Sony's customer service is one of the worst ones out there when it comes to communication so asking them will probably never work.
(I use nova, but unlike all these "elitists" I do not scold ppl for using something they prefer and I try to help them if I can, so on the behalf of the old xda when there used to be more helpful ppl compared to the current generation, I apologize)

While it maybe mandatory to have the search bar a part of the launcher, it is not forced upon the user they way you mentioned, as we can opt to not show the search bar in the Xperia Home launcher settings. We don't need to change launchers just to get rid of it like how you implied.

Thank you very much. That's kind of answer I was looking for. Just wanted to know if someone else got the same. So I don't have to look for a solution or start troubleshooting. Will stay with. For voice requests I can still use the assistant button and for the rest the search bar is still working the same.
I'm on stock Android 12 with stock Sony launcher. Mine looks the same as always

Just done the same test also. I can confirm I have the same issue.
Currently on FW 61.1.A.11.36 if it makes any difference.
I use Lawnchair so this issue doesn't really effect me, but still Sony should fix it.

Found the same request in the Sony Support Forum but no answer/response yet.
Sony Xperia 5 II Search bar is strange
I have a strange search bar. I made a screen capture video and took a picture from it, of topic question, can you make a screen copy of the home screen in an android phone? As you see in the bottom the search widget is square and not with the Google G. Just the word Sök, Swedish for search...

FYI: Issue got solved due to the current Google app update!
