you can always get the oem chargers and cables from samsung if you want:

you can also search for the cables if you need it.

.....but.....
i'm with @olbriar you do not necessarily need oem(original equipment manufacturer) chargers and cables as it says in the manual. they are just trying to sell their own product. i have used many chargers abd cables from different devices to charge my phones before in the past. just be careful of cheap chinese made products. they tend to break or not charge your phones properly.

Android 13 is OTA for me; Verizon, NE USA. Im starting the download now.
It was 1.02 GB and took only 2 hours.
Good luck to all.

i con not add a acount on my umx u670c phone any answers

I play it and I advise you.

At first, my friends and I were also bothered by these automatic updates. Especially when you have already set up to work in the same way on different OSes, and after the update, you have to adjust to the new trends, even if they are improved somehow. Fortunately, we were told that Zaptest has a usability testing tool, and our corporate system will work correctly after the updates. It is not always possible to safely block updates so as not to harm the well-established work of the team. But if you are annoyed by updates, try blocking them, as shown in the screenshots.

AFAIK all you need to do is to unlock it, is to make one phone call of at least five minutes using a local SIM within the region,

why do you particularly want to buy and import a German(EU/EEA) variant of the A22 or A32 into the US? That may or may not work with T-mobile rather than the unlocked US variant of these devices, that's guaranteed to work with T-mobile..

Re:- the thing with just making one 5-minute phone call with an EU SIM card - note that I asked Samsung support, "Do you mean to tell me that EVERY SINGLE ONE of the millions of Samsung owners in Germany (surely all EU) who travel outside the EU, have emailed Samsung their travel dates, copy of receipt and IMEI number THREE WEEKS IN ADVANCE in order to use their phone while traveling?" and they said, yes, every one of them has done that. It's the only way to use an EU Samsung outside the EU. No exceptions.

Then I tried support again the next day and they said that's wrong; you can email if you need to but you can also just do the 5-minute call and he explained how it's all about preventing people from buying phones and reselling them on other continents, which makes you wonder, who is buying phones *retail* in the EU and reselling them in some continent where you can't even get them?

Not importing - I live in Germany and will be traveling to the US.

I was hospitalised for two weeks back in April, and I was doing DuoLingo for some of the time.

if you can go to the bootloader try and wipe cache and reboot the phone. if it does not reboot, you may have to flash a firmware update.

you can get the firmware update from here with instrictions:

never owned a nokia phone, so i do not know if it wipes data or not. it most likely does, but at least you will have a working phone again.

here in the states a head unit is the car stereo. so is this factory? some units that have older software will not work with newer phones. but android auto is going away thanx to google discontinuing it.

here is a similar thread from this forum with links that explain why:

I wouldn't call myself one of their big consumers. The local BB&B is not really very local to me. We have shopped there and have never been disappointed in the selections and quality of products they offer. When daughter #1 left home we sent her off with most all of our kitchen tools and silverware. We replaced all of that stuff at BB&B and most of it is still in use.

Click to expand...

Exactly! I remember buying my daughter her first few pieces of Calphalon cookware at the store in Dallas; I bought all my original Calphalon there, too, and it's still in use. It has a lifetime warranty, and I actually made use of it once. We had followed its cleaning instructions to the letter, but something got burned on and would not come off. They replaced it just like that! I've added a piece here and there over the years. I love Calphalon and even though I'm rarely the one cooking these days, it's the only brand I buy. I guess you'd say I'm a loyal customer.

I would start off by looking at Sqlite data base, guess that would be a good start.

I don't think it will install a second copy of the app (I don't think that would be possible without changing the package), but it is rather silly. It's just the sort of thing that happens when you have the same app in 2 app storage.

I generally ignore the Samsung app store until it occasionally pops up a notice to say I have 39 updates or something. Most of these will be pre-installed Samsung crap which I'm not interested in updating, but I have about 2 edge apps which I installed myself and can only get updates via the Samsung store. So I check whether there is an update for either of those then forget that the Galaxy Store exists for another few weeks...

can you just change the google password ?

After a little research I think it's more MS SwiftKey related than an android update.

Switched out to the Samsung keyboard and couldn't replicate this issue. That immediately made me suspicious.

Add that to the fact that this wasn't even an issue days ago but all of a sudden it is. Check the update history & SwiftKey updated a few days ago.

Then check out the reviews on SwiftKey to find others complaining of it.

this wrong item is not to find anywhere and it's saved as not a normal address cos when i click on it i see this notification:
add a valid email address... how to finally get rid of it?

That OTG checker app is only going to confirm whether your tablet does or does not support OTG. But that's only one aspect you have to take into consideration. The OTG cable or adapter you have might be the problem as not all brands or models will actually be compatible with your tablet's OTG capability. Plus it's a matter where even when your tablet support OTG and your OTG cable/adapter is compatible with your tablet, that does not mean that external USB device you're trying use is compatible with your tablet.

So in your instance there's a chain of variables to consider -- the tablet, the OTG cable/adapter, and the DVD drive. Unfortunately you need to go through an arduous process of trial-and-error to see what does and what does not work. As @mikedt referred to, can you successfully mount something like a USB thumb drive or an external hard drive to your tablet via USB? If yes, than that indicates your OTG cable/adapter is compatible with your tablet. If not try more than one external drive because while most will be, some won't. If you can't eventually get your tablet to detect an external drive, assume you do need to find a replacement OTG cable/adapter that's a different model, or even brand.

Once you've confirmed your table and OTG cable/adapter are compatible, that leaves the DVD player as the problem. If you did have to get a different OTG cable, that itself might be the solution to the problem. If not, it could be a driver issue.
With a PC, you might need to just install a device driver or some software to be able to use an external DVD player. Or when you plug it in, that prompts the OS to automatically load its existing device driver. But with Android when it does not occur automatically in the background, it's not a matter of manually installing a driver, that's something done by installing a manufacturer-supplied app. It's the app that contains the necessary driver/firmware. So check in the Play Store if the manufacturer for your external DVD player has an app and hopefully that solves your problem.

Is the link apk exactly same app as the samsung offical original smart switch app?

What APK sites are safe and no malware?

APKMirror is a great and safe site, with a big collection of original apps with several (older) versions of them.

Is it backing up to a removable sd card then? I stress "removable" because /sdcard isn't actually an sd card, it's part of the internal storage. If it is backing up to a removable card can you try backing up to internal storage (if you have space)?

Of course one of the commonest reasons people lose the ability to install apps is lack of space in the internal storage, so given your other problems that may not be an option. The phone needs some internal free storage as working space, so will block installs before it runs out. The limit varies, but if you have just a GB or so left that's very likely the problem.

Click to expand...

Yes, the SD card is fomatted as internal so it can't be removed and checked. There is about 1.5G free but I can't free up any more because for some reason, it doesn't seem to delete stuff, even junk files, photos etc, it just says it is deleting them but doesn't. I deleted all the apps on the SD card and file manager says they are gone but it still reports the same amount of memory is used as before the apps were deleted. It looks like the whole thing is corrupted so I guess the answer is to export the chats as text files and media and do a factory reset.

Hi svim thank you for your reply

I am in the UK and my carrier is Lebara. Their tech support isn't that great and they weren't able to assist with this. We still have 3G and 4G data networks available here - 5G is just starting to roll out but as I am in a a fairly rural location so 3/4G is all that's available in my location.

I will go back to their tech support - maybe I just got unlucky with the person I was talking to

Click to expand...

Yes, try contacting Lebara tech support again. Some of the time you might be dealing with a knowledgeable, helpful staffer, other times maybe not. It's a real gamble.

But offhand, your Armor X6 is appears to be primarily a 2G/3G model:
https://www.gsmarena.com/ulefone_armor_x6-10024.php
and Lebara is a MVNO contracted with Vodafone in the U.K.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lebara
and there isn't a match for the bands/frequencies that Vodafone uses for its 4G cellular network
https://www.kimovil.com/en/frequency-checker/GB/ulefone-armor-x6
So you might want to lower your expectations you'll be able to get anything more than 3G on your X6 if this is all actually correct.

Thank you so very much for the reply, Hadron.
I'll need to digest this.

Thread drift warranted a thread.
