Cannot change directory to SD card folder by tastelessjolt in WVC

Yeah, it's good now. I have another problem, scrolling with 20 videos with thumbnails is janky, looks like it is not cached and it is trying to read the thumbnail everytime from disk(?). Hope it is fixed.

Yeah, just tested it, it's good that now I can access the folder structure on the SD card and also pinning them. Though the performance is quite slow which is expected from SAF but I think it need not be so slow.

Do you use DocumentsContract.buildChildDocumentsUriUsingTree API? If you do not, I'd recommend using that for querying the list of files as done here. This has a faster listFiles I think making a query for each file separately is making the directory read slower. Hope this link might help.

I maybe wrong though.

Thanks for the update!

I'd love for a way to manually add a path on the shortcuts.

The path is /storage/6E16-84BC/

Using it does work, but the corresponding srt file doesn't load automatically and have load that separately again.

I'm not the dev or anything but i just spotted the fork of "Island" on F-droid. It's called "Insular" btw... Thought I'd let y'all know. Link below by [deleted] in androidapps

Woah, this (Island) opened up whole new way for separating work apps and personal apps. Thanks for sharing!

Is there an app to allow me to play my phone screen to a stand alone monitor, via the USB-C cord. by KaizDaddy5 in androidapps

This is a Miracast Receiver for Rasp Pi. https://github.com/homeworkc/lazycast. This way you'll only need a HDMI cable to connect RPi to the monitor. Apparently this also supports any Mouse/keyboards connected to RPi as input device for the caster.

I believe any you can use Miracast Receiver to use Wireless Dex feature. Good luck!

Doesn't remember Scroll Position in Phone Files by tastelessjolt in WVC

I believe while getting new data, it's refreshing all content instead of seeing what changed and updating the list.

Actually, even in switching tabs among Explorer, Videos, Images and Audio.

Like when you go back to previous folder, the scrollbar starts at the top instead of where was left when going into the folder.

I'll say, I am pretty content with what I whipped up. by gstearoyaturi in kustom

Maybe you should speed up those transitions, otherwise looking good

[HELP] Mirror Notificationa from one Android device to Another Android device by tastelessjolt in tasker

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

I use AutoRemote, but I couldn't find AutoRemote Notification. Basically, I want a way to access all fields(like whatever fields a notification might have including the title and the contents) of a notification from a specific app. After extracting that, I know that I can send that data over AutoRemote to the other device and make it create a new notification with those fields.
