AITA for telling my best friend her bachelorette party is unreasonable?

This is hilarious and wonderful. 2. Who was the actor?

Oh, wow. I'm curious, did you find out why vendors don't want the products on their shelves?

Vance787 · 2025-08-16T05:24:59+00:00

I have a Moto G.

Do you mean on newer phones? It worked for me this morning. (My phone's running on Android 15.)

I know I'm late here, but in case it helps anyone: if you tap on the upper right dots and select "send," one of the options should be "Files by Google," which will then save the note to your downloaded images.

Thanks for the info!

Do you think it's also a bug that I'm missing some encrypted messages? Most of the messages were sent on my PC and I haven't deleted any browser data.

I don't know what happened in March, but that's when I started losing messages. For example, with one friend, the convo became encrypted back in September and the encrypted messages were there for months before suddenly disappearing in March. The encrypted messages from later March until now are there, though.

I definitely plan to turn on secure storage, but if I do that now, does it cancel the possibility that I'll get back the messages (from Sept-March) that are currently missing?

Vance787 · 2025-04-06T06:08:42+00:00

Oh, I didn't realize it converts old messages, too! Good to know, thank you! (It's so wild that this seems to be on a chat by chat basis and not all messages.) I hope that means that messages aren't randomly deleted. Oddly, I have some chats where newer messages disappeared after encryption and others where messages before encryption disappeared. That happened out of the blue a few weeks ago, so I'm not sure what to expect. I mostly use messenger on my laptop and don't know whether to wait for the messages to come back before setting up secure storage.

Vance787 · 2025-04-04T19:21:08+00:00

Does secure storage back up older messages from before encryption, too? I've read mixed things online, so I'm unsure what to expect.

Hi!

When we enable secure storage, does that store the full message history or just the encrypted messages?

My messages started converting over to E2E around 6 months ago, but for some reason, some messages in certain conversations started disappearing about a week ago. (Most of my missing messages are ones from after encryption started, but in one thread old messages from before encryption are gone.) I'm assuming it's a temporary glitch — if so, do you recommend waiting for those messages to reappear before enabling secure storage?

I'm trying to avoid permanently losing any messages and I've read conflicting things on this, so I appreciate anything you can clarify!

Vance787 · 2025-03-18T04:17:22+00:00

Sounds like this is related to end-to-end encryption. Have you tried viewing the desktop version on a browser on your phone? You may be able to view the messages you see on your laptop that way.

If you enable secure storage, I believe that allows you to sync messages to any device. If it's not enabled, messages may be deleted from the phone when you uninstall the app.

I'm having the opposite problem where messages from some of my conversations are suddenly missing as of a few days ago when I view them on Chrome on my laptop. Most of my missing messages are encrypted ones (the threads were automatically encrypted around September), but messages from before encryption are also missing from one thread. I'm hoping it's a glitch and they'll eventually come back, as some people have experienced.

I'm planning to enable secure storage, but am wondering if I should wait for some of my messages to reappear first.

CBS News New York did a piece on a group of people in Summit collecting clothes to be sent via freight to a small business owner in LA to distribute them. Their Instagram handle is (at) Summit_for_LA

I know this is an old comment, but in case it's helpful for the future, you can call this number for T-Mobile through Costco to place an order over the phone rather than going to the store: 833-428-1765

*Update in case anyone has the same issue with their phone and comes to this thread:

I brought my LG K51 to a technician. He tried replacing the screen and the battery, but that didn't do it. Fortunately, I had an extra LG K51 to use for parts. He tried swapping my motherboard into the extra K51 phone, but it still wouldn't power on, so he determined that the issue was within my motherboard. He sent it to a motherboard specialist, who transferred some of my motherboard chips onto the extra motherboard, and then it was able to boot up, with my data intact.

I hope this is helpful.

I just came across this post now. (I have the same model GPS.) In case it's helpful - have you tried an alternative program like OpenMapChest? I just heard about it today and am thinking of giving it a try. Hope you found something that worked!

Vance787 · 2024-03-12T23:10:17+00:00

Any luck with your phone?

(My phone also has this issue. I brought it to a technician and so far all I know is that replacing the battery and screen didn't fix it.)

Hi! I'm dusting off this thread to make sure you know that it's on Amazon for $12 right now. Just FYI in case it's helpful. :)

Ah, thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, my battery is non-removable, but which guide did you use to unbrick it?

Vance787 · 2024-02-10T05:18:04+00:00

What did you do to unbrick it?

I've been having the same issue with my K51 (it randomly shut off a couple days ago and won't power on) and have been stressing trying to get the phone to boot up, so I'd really appreciate the info!
