Can a scammer get any information about me if all I did was answer a scammer's call?
I've gotten calls from random people saying I've won stuff. But none of the conversations even lasted a minute, (I just freak out when I receive random calls lol), so I'm certain I've never given any information about me verbally through a phone call. I remember a few times, I got a call from a foreign number, and he spelled my name to confirm he was talking to the right person. And I said yes (well he knows my name and number right..). And I asked who he is, and he replied he's Ethan (I've never known or met a single Ethan in my life). And he was talking something and I got a lil nervous + the signal wasn't great so I told him that and he said he'll hang up and call me from a different number. He called again a few mins later and the signal was too weak, I couldn't even speak. Now I'm not sure if he needed to actually talk to me to get information about me, or does he only need me to answer his call? Is it possible for someone to collect information that exists in my phone by only answering it?

Say I have built an app, what next? Should I provide the keystore files or keep them with me (or let them sign it)? Should I provide entire repository including all source codes? Any additional links to guides will be really helpful.

8 AnswersMedia & Journalism5 months agoCan software dim or brighten pixels of an LCD backlight individually?
I know our phones can brighten and dim the display overall but can software target individual pixels from the blacklight panel? For example, to make the blacks look more darker when on full brightness (not necessarily turn off the pixel on the backlight panel itself) If it's not possible by our regular LCD devices we have, is there any display out there that can actually do this?

2 AnswersOther - Society & Culture8 months agoHow do I get back the Instagram DM update?
I was prompted to update Instagram dm and I was not in range of a good internet connection so it said try again or smth(I don't remember). Now I wanna update but how do I do so? Ik Instagram updates are for individual accounts sent from the server, so uninstalling and reinstalling won't work. I tried logging into my account from a different phone and still the same. Logging in a different account on my phone, I was prompted to update and I updated and it works. It's just for my account.

Wanna make things clearer. I would like to know what happens for both scenarios, accelerating train and a train in constant speed. I am pretty sure for constant speed, we would land at the same spot (correct me if I am wrong). But what happens if the train was accelerating?

5 AnswersLaptops & Notebooks2 years agoHow do I check if a problem with android phone is a hardware or a software problem?
There's this problem with the camera of my android phone. It says "Can't connect to the camera. Please make sure to close other apps that may use camera or flashlight". This problem arose when I sent my phone to repair some other troubles in it. I can't even find the camera and flashlight app in Settings>>Apps>>All. So I just want to know if the problem is with the hardware or software. How do I find out without opening the phone's hardware parts??
