recovery of functionality

I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 phone, 3.5 years old. Recently its WiFi failed (with an unchanging message saying it was turning on, but it never did). Occasionally, when I turned on the phone, WiFi would reappear normally. It would work for a few days and then malfunction again. This pattern lasted for a few weeks. Then another problem happened: the microphone function failed.

A few weeks passed. Suddenly both functionalities were back. For a few days now both have worked as intended.

So what happened? --Halcatalyst (talk) 15:29, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

These are hardware problems. They may recur at any time. Ruslik_Zero 08:51, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Can

anyone point me to some reviews of Herbert Schildt's C - The Complete Reference. See this link, for the background. General comments are welcome too:-) ∯WBG^converse 16:59, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Start with our article Herbert Schildt, and read the reviews contained in the references there.-gadfium 20:59, 5 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

One of the worst, if not the very worst, books on C ever written. Avoid. One of the few things worse would be his C++ books. I'm curious as to why anyone would care, this many years after his books were published. Andy Dingley (talk) 11:20, 6 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
this is a bit of a classic, but it's about a different book of his. Aecho6Ee (talk) 07:49, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
