It would have been good if Samsung had included the February 2022 Android Security patch on this release and added One UI 4.1.

I'm using a Whitestone bonded screen protector which works perfectly with the fingerprint sensor. A Ferilinso soft clear case with supposed military grade drop protection. I like both. I tried a dBrand case which protected better but weighed a ton.
Finally I'm using a Sinstar attachment which lets me use my 3.5 mm earphone plug and charge at the same time. It is very clean with the earphone but if I plug in or unplug the charging cable while using the earphones, the music shuts off.

Thanks

Ok, so after a week of changing my SIM, there hasn't been an issue (fingers crossed lol) it does still take a few longer secondso to switch back from WIFI to Data, but at least it isn't disappearing. Thanks everyone for your help and advice! I'll update if anything goes wrong.

Yeah...no....I tried that before. I still ended up with tons of results that include the attached handheld shower. You'd think that would be an OPTION, right? One that you could filter out? But...apparently not....

Hello everyone, I have an LG smartphone model LG LML212VL, that is running Android 8.1.0, and is using Tracfone Wireless Pay as you go plan for service, and it has a strange issue that I cannot find any cause for....
Whenever I make a call, and get a robot (automated answering system) providing options, or menus, it cuts in and out, making it so that I cannot hear the instructions, and it cannot recognize my responses.
Basically, what I hear is bits and pieces of instructions, and 'I'm sorry, I didn't get that, lets try again' over and over until it either hangs up on me, or connects me to a live agent.
If I am connected to someone, it is a good thing truthfully, as I would always rather speak with a human being than with a recording, but oftentimes, this is not the case, and I am missing out on accomplishing goals because of it. It is a real problem, mainly because SO MANY companies nowadays have robots answering their phones, long before you are allowed to reach an agent, forcing you to jump through a labyrinth of confusing hoops in order to get anything done.
It does not seem to be happening when I am talking to live people though, and only automated answering robots, so I am thoroughly confused by this behavior. Can someone give me a possible cause for this, and if available, a fix??
Thanks in advance!!

If Google cared about their image, then they wouldn't spy on everybody, and try to control our devices.

followup: it did not go away when I uninstalled that Kaizen app, but it hasn't appeared since I went to playstore and clicked uninstall for speech services. Hey google still works and I have not noticed anything that does not.
THANKS Danny!

Exactly!

These 'updates' are nothing of the sort!

'updates', 'boosters' - what's the difference?

We have had posts like this before, like "My Sprint phone or whatever tethering was working, the phone updated, and now tethering is disabled.". And it has been those updates are apparently to enable the carrier restrictions.

No I have done that several times and it then opens the link in the browser only. I have uninstall the apps to and reinstalled which made no difference. To get it to open in the app I have to go into apps and go into either of the two apps and tell it open from email, but I then still don't get the options up instead it will only open in that particular app.

OK I saw online that something similar was being done to mess up iPhones and somewhere within 50 yards is a beacon that no one has claimed in the 2 years its been here. I wondered if it was similar because it looked like the wifi disable ssid was coming from my router since I can change from channel 1 to say 8 and the green one over the ATT network and the big blue one dissappear.

That sounds like the "Free Public WiFi." Windows virus, that was quite prevalent about 10-15 years ago.
https://www.npr.org/2010/10/09/130451369/the-zombie-network-beware-free-public-wifi

And I did see it myself, while waiting for trains and planes sometimes. And the safe solution to that was, don't attempt to connect your Windows laptop to WiFi SSIDs you don't know or trust.

Sooo,, if it is this difficult....

why, oh why, continue to use an unbranded (or otherwise) Samsung device on Verizon?

Personally, I would choose to not deal with either one individually, and the thought of trying them together leads me to envision pieces of phone everywhere and an expensive contract.

Playing games will cause it to charge slow.

Doing anything with it while it charges slows down the charging.

Holy necrobump Batman!!

You might be waiting a long time, as they were last seen on this forum ten years ago.

The internet is full of these kinds of offers. I've found a lot of scam projects that just wasted my time. To find real apps that pay you real money (wealthofgeeks.com/apps-that-pay-you-money/), you should know what you are looking for and, after that, read all the reviews you can find online. And believe me, if at least two or three people say it is a waste of time, believe them and don't join it. You wrote just some general facts that don't sound very convincing, especially with less than 200 users. I am not saying it is not true or good, but this is my point of view regarding your post.

ok i get it thank you

Phones initially released with android 4.4 and earlier can revert to an unencrypted state after a reset (though the data that were erased by the reset were encrypted, it's data added after the reset that may not be). A phone initially released with 9 will not.

KNOX is irrelevant to this:android has encryption independent of Samsung's KNOX add-on.

well, 5 years is such a good time. but without seeing the device we can't do anything.

it is better to go to one plus services center for inspection or repair.

Hi, I need to do an api implementation in the Android Studio module, then create an aar or jar file to create an VS Android Binding project, I am following all the steps to do it here https://developer.android.com/studio/projects/android-library, but when I build the aar/jar file and copy the file into my Android Binding project, I can't access to those libraries, I only have access to
com.packagename.defaultConfig class.

I can send you my project files if you need it, just let me know.

Thanks

Apologies if I broke up the code snippets incorrectly, feel free to use the edit post thread to correct them.

I'm afraid that is not how the encryption works. It might have been once, but for the last 6-7 years or so all devices have been encrypted out of the box, whether you set a lockscreen password or not (and to be honest most people use a short PIN or pattern rather than a password, which would be a pretty weak encryption key).

Sorry, but I don't think there is a way.

Ahhhh lwp=live wall paper.

Lwp does not work as well on the Z fold 3.

Thanks Brian 706 & PuppyKickr for taking time to reply with good suggestions.

I followed your instructions, Brian 706, but the switch to turn on update notifications was already on. I must have missed something somewhere. (I don't know much about Android, but am trying to learn.)

Your idea of scheduling time to clean up the phone sounds good, puppykickr. I like to send as much as possible to the external storage. It would be nice if apps could go to external. They eat up a lot of internal storage. On my phone, there's no option so send any of the apps to the SD card. (Grey'd out in every app under Settings - Apps)
