Most times the **Samsung** S23+ BT, with LE Audio enabled, connectivity to my **Oticon** Intent hearing aids is great. However, sometimes I think another BT device interferes causing the connectivity to drop (i.e. I can hear the party on the other end but they can not hear me!). I observe the BT icon on my phone is turned OFF due to this interference. As a result, I am forced to either turn ON the BT icon or turn on the Speaker to allow our conversation to continue. But, many times the other party believes a disconnect and calls me back. Very frustrating! Is there someway I can set the phone BT priority highest while paired with my HAs to block any other outside BT interference? Or, is there a Do Not Disturb type setting I can invoke real time to block outside BT interference? Or, is there an App I can install that would address the issue in some way? Any feedback or suggestions would be appreciated.

By mistake when forwarding an SMS I selected a thread that does not allow replies (messages from my bank). Now each time I open the messaging app there is the draft message on top of the list and there is nothing I can do to delete. I cannot find any option to delete the draft from this thread. Also when I actually open the said thread the draft text is nowhere to be seen... I tried deleting the apps cache, but it does not help. I tried force stopping the app. No help. Within the thread there aren't any options related to drafts. I know I could delete the entire thread or app data, but I do not want to lose the data from it. Is the solution from this link (it's 7 year old) really safe in terms of not losing all SMS history? https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/187092/how-can-delete-a-draft-for-a-no-reply-sender If not, is there anything else I can try ?

# I previously did this on Windows Laptop and I didn't know how to do it in Android Phone. ### **On Windows Laptop (using AMD GPU):** - I downloaded CRU (Custom Resolution Utility) and extracted the zip folder. - I opened CRU folder and launched CRU.exe. - I added a new resolution for 920x1080 (portrait mode) with a refresh rate of 100 Hz. - I went to Settings > System > Display and changed the resolution from 1920x1080 to 920x1080. - I noticed two black bars on the left and right sides of the display. - To achieve a stretched screen, I opened "AMD Radeon Software" application. - In the display section, I changed "Scaling Mode" from "Center" to "Full Panel". - The display screen stretched to remove all black bars. - Stretched display means all content (items, fonts, icons, etc.) expands without changing position, it also will not reduce the number of items inside it (like text wrapping) ### **For Android Device (Samsung Galaxy S23):** - I connected Samsung Galaxy S23 (base model, neither "Plus" nor "Ultra") via USB Cable. - I enabled "USB Debugging" and "Wireless Debugging". - I verified connection with adb devices. - I set screen size to 1080x2600 with adb shell wm size 1080x2600 to create black bars on the left and right. - I attempted to adjust density to 200 with adb shell wm density 200, but only font size reduced (not stretch my screen). - I reset density with adb shell wm density reset. - I tried to remove black bars with adb shell wm overscan 0,0,0,0, but it has already deprecated. ### **Question:** Is there any way to achieve the same stretched screen behavior I experienced on my AMD laptop on my Samsung Galaxy S23 device? I wanted from this: to this:

I use a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra with Android 13. There is an Apple AirTag near my phone, which was would be Android's tracker scanner. However, Android can't play a sound ln the AirTag.

I haven't changed anything since the tracker scanner ran a few seconds ago.

I downloaded a large number of files via magnet:?xt=urn:btih:5f96d43576e3d386c9ba65b883210a393b68210e&tr=https%3A%2F%2Facademictorrents.com%2Fannounce.php&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.coppersurfer.tk%3A6969&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.opentrackr.org%3A1337%2Fannounce (Apache 2.0 license) and [LibreTorrent](https://github.com/proninyaroslav/libretorrent) (GPL-3.0 license).

This list is chopped but it contains 770 lines (i.e., 770 MD5 checksums), so I'd like to batch check them. I know how to compute a MD5 checksum on a single file, but I don't know how to check all these files at once. How can I check that the downloaded files match these MD5 checksums on Android? I use a Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra running Android 13.
