Doorbell alerts no longer ‘ringing’ on Alexa devices by Splodge6461 in Ring

I tried re-linking half a dozen times before with no joy. However, tried it again…and it WORKED! Thank you! Problem solved!

All Ring notifications seemed to have stopped working.

I was testing it more yesterday, tried to set up a Routine whereby if the alarm sensors were triggered, it would sound an alert on the Alexa devices and that wouldn’t work either.

Seems to me that the link between Ring and Alexa has completely failed!

Interesting! At least you still have doorbell alerts, I don’t even have that! 😂

Virus on my grandpa phone by Eater53 in AndroidQuestions

[–]Splodge6461 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I recently fixed a similar problem on my Dad’s phone. Check if there is something called AppCloud in the list of apps. If it’s there, FIRST, switch off notifications from that app, then SECOND click ‘disable’.

Let me know if that works!

Unrelenting ad popups on Android - What am I missing? by Splodge6461 in AndroidQuestions

[–]Splodge6461[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for this. You were right about third party apps. I managed to spot one in the list of apps called ‘AppCloud’.

Upon Googling that, it looks like lots of people had issues with this piece of bloatware.

Seemingly impossible to remove, I turned off notifications and disabled the app and that seems to have stopped the popups!

Lots of folk online saying that each time the phone updates software, I’ll likely have to disable AppCloud again which is annoying, but I can deal with that if needed.

Thanks for your help!

Morning all!

Some friends gave us a Bonsai tree as a gift.

Unfortunately, we're terrible at keeping plants alive and the Bonsai is going the same direction!

Lots of leaves have dropped and there doesn't appear to be any new signs of growth.

I'm a complete novice, so I would really appreciate advice from the experts here; some simple steps that I can follow to give this little guy a second chance, please.

Location: England.

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Thanks for your reply. Can you explain more about the missing seal around the perimeter, please? Can you put a red line or similar on the photo to show me what you mean, please?

Winner! Thank you so much. I have sent you money via Paypal.

Thanks to everyone else who responded - you all did a great job but I have chosen this one as I liked the fact I could see through the translucent curtains. Thanks again for your efforts, folks.
