Android Auto

Android Auto allows users with a compatible vehicle to use their vehicle's infotainment screen for Android applications like Waze, music, phone, etc. Google plays my messages, and I can reply to them using Assistant. It effectively replaces the vehicle's "assistant" with Google. Example: I'm not sure where a certain restaurant is. Rather than look it up and punch the location in my vehicle's navigation system, I just tell Google "navigate to Chief's Smokehouse" - Google will do the search, put the address in Waze (or Maps if I choose), and navigate there.

Since you say you have no need of it, you can go to Settings -- Apps -- Overflow Menu (three dots upper right) -- Show system apps and scroll to Android Auto. There you should be able to uninstall it or at least disable it.

Do Factory Unlocked Models Show 5G or LTE+ on Sub 6 5G Network?

Well I feel like I'm going in circles but now found a Reddit thread that confirms what I originally suspected.

The Factory Unlocked (model ending in U1) S20 phones apparently have not got the update from Samsung yet to allow sub 6 5G connection. But there is a hack in that you can change the carrier network code to ATT even though you are on Verizon and it enabled the N5 band which is what Verizon uses for their "Nationwide 5G" To do this you dial *#272*your IMEI number# Then select ATT and Install and change network code only. Phone will reboot and now you will see 5G UW symbol.


I tried the CSC change on my factory unlocked S20+. I ran three successive bandwidth tests on bandwidthplace.com before and after the change so 3 times on VZW and 3 times on ATT. As others have alluded to the LTE DSS Sub 6 Flavor of Verizon 5G is on average about the same speed as 4G LTE+. So I just turned it back to VZW and will wait for the update from Samsung. I'm surprised a month and a half later it still hasn't got the update to allow N5 band on Verizon.

I'm also wondering is the S20 always show 5G UW when connected to any 5G including sub 6 5G and not actual millimeter wave ultra wide 5G? Or is that just a side effect of "spoofing" the ATT carrier code when actually on a Verizon network IMEI?

S20 wired charging

Sorry to be a pest, but just to clarify -- have you used any QC chargers via a direct wired connection to the USB-C port on your S20, or only indirectly through wireless charging? I can imagine those two scenarios could be quite different.

Thanks!
I'll be honest I'll have to check. Like I said, was was mixing and matching charging blocks, cables, and when applicable, wireless chargers.

Hypertext problem

Links in emails do work, so it has to be a problem with your app or your settings rather than Android itself.

Unfortunately we need to know more than "this doesn't work" in order to have a chance at providing a solution. So to start, what email app are you using? Can you open links from other apps (news sites, Twitter, or whatever)? I also suggest you check the email app's settings to make sure that it doesn't have this function disabled (e.g. as a security measure, since clicking on a link in an email can be a high risk activity ;)). If you've installed any security app (often, misleadlingly, marketed as "anti-virus" is that set to interfere with such actions? I'm just speculating at this point because we don't know anything about your setup.
