Contact James..he will fix you all up.

When you unlock a carrier-locked phone, then it's unlocked permanently. You can swap sims with impunity. As for cost, it's always going to be a trade off, depending on your usage. Since I was almost always near Wi-Fi, my H20 sim had minimal data minutes and I rarely used all the voice minutes in a billing period (it was about $10/month). I'm not saying they are the best, just what my experience has been. The nice thing about off-the-rack sims is there's no contract and it's a fairly small investment if the service isn't that good.

Hi, how much did Samsung charge you for it?

Nothing at all. The phone was still under warranty

They seem to have stopped doing these promotions a couple years back. I haven't gotten one since 2016.

And a loose cable is not something you can fix yourself.
Duplicates please delete

My unknown sources is greyed out and won't download anything after a factory reset because I forgot my Google password

you will need to do a forget password. you can't do anything until you sign in with your account info. otherwise you will need to contact google to get your account fixed. there is no way around it regardless of what the internet says.

I was at Verizon store recently and in a corner among various cables, battery packs and assorted variety of things I found a LG G6. I bought one in January of 2017 through TMobile and by August the unit had disappear from the shelves. So I asked a representative about it his response was basically it was there for decoration no one was interested in buying it,

You might find this of interest.

This worked for me when i have userdefind interface 'TopSectionFragment' and its object activitycommander:

//This method gets called whenever we attach fragment to the activity
@override
public void onAttach(Context context) {
super.onAttach(context);
Activity a=getActivity();
try {
if(context instanceof Activity)
this.activitycommander=(TopSectionListener)a;
}catch (ClassCastException e){
throw new ClassCastException(a.toString());}

}

If your phone is dual SIM, try to swap the SIM locations. Some older phones require the main SIM to be in a specific slot.

As I said, "...while scrolling through 'activities...'"

You can see some info/examples of them in my thread about ADW. I know other launchers can access them, too.

Hmmm alright.

If you haven't been able to find it..instead trying to find it..go to the "unknown" app you are trying to install..then go ahead like you will try to install..at that point your phone should prompt you where you are supposedly switch the slider button..

I hope this helped..OR like the guys here suggested..if you go to the search bar and you start typing the words..it should populate

Well if you can't find just what files are taking up so much storage space, it might be time to either take it to a trusted service shop and have them look your phone over, or a more drastic measure and do a Factory Reset.
But with either option, be sure all your data is backed up first. Install Samsung's Smart Switch utility:

It will allow you to do a full backup and make the restore process at least less of a hassle.

What did you mean with? I got my Huawei from a local Store?!

They most likely didn't have your SIM/account provisioned properly. The "techs" at AT&T in my experience aren't running current firmware.

Open up settings and search for themes. You'll probably find it there.

Whether you like it or not, please make use of the Menu > Help & feedback > Send feedback option in Chrome to let the devs know what you think about the bottom navigation bar. I personally love it as it puts things within easier reach of my thumb, but I know a lot of people don't particularly care for it. The Chrome team can use your feedback to help influence changes like this in the future.

For now, you may be able to control this behavior by modifying flags, but this isn't without some risk. Flags are meant to be used by developers and not us commoners; they're experimental in nature and may break or disappear without warning. They can be fun to play with and get a feel for what may be to come, but they shouldn't be relied upon as a permanent solution.

That said....

Still can't find the themes setting for Google or gmail to activate dark mode. My daughter has a note 9 and her gmail app is set to dark. My note 10+ is all dark themed except for Google and gmail. What am I not seeing or doing?

Thank you both.
Actually, I have now found the setting for which I was searching.
Settings / device care / battery / settings (3 vertical dots at top right) / Fast cable charging (at bottom of list).

I have the same problem. I've seen people complain about it for years. It's odd that google doesn't fix it or at least use the line that it is a feature. I assume the people that work there experience the same problem.

Will I get all my stuff back if it's all backed up

Click to expand...

it's all depends on how you back them up. A hard reset will delete data. It's basically a factory reset. So if you have your photos, videos, and other files backed up to your computer, you should be fine.

I wonder how many here start to use Flutter ?

I need some help literally Stripping an S8 or Note 5. Many times I have rooted devices for my own use however, I have never tried to take away many of the main device functionality on purpose.

Situation:

I have an older brother whom is Autistic and now 46 years old. Music is his thing, there is no other for him. I'm 40 and when I was a child he had 200 some odd cassette tapes. Listened to them all day. The writing was worn off all of them. But let me tell you he would dump out this chest of tapes, you could ask him for an artist he had in that huge pile, and in a matter of seconds he would pull it out. That is one of his special gifts.....

Now a few years ago we got him to go to Cd's which was quite a feat on it's own. Now he carries a discman and 150 Cd's. This is getting harder and harder to keep up with. We tried getting him to use a tablet but he would touch something and get frustrated as it was too much for him to operate.

MP3 Players:

This is what we are currently wanting to try. He can read and write, so that is not an issue. The very basic ones have no display, the others that are larger and easier to read (his vision isn't the greatest as he has lost vision in one eye) BUT, they also have bunch of other stuff that he can get into where we may have the tablet issue above again...... Everything he has is on mp3, 4000+ no streaming ability needed, or BT.

FINAL:

Is there ANYONE that has a solution? I need basic MP3 player via a phone completely stripped to the core or one that someone knows that they can get the other apps out (books, etc.) Forcing a phone into a kids mode maybe with no bloatware would be great as well. I have an S8 and Note 5 that mean nothing to me.

Comments welcome and any help would be appreciated.... Dallas TX.....

Never mind. I guess it just got out of whack. The trick was off, on, push second button to pair with device (and of course have the phone ready).

Anyone with the OnePlus7Pro

Where did you buy this OnePlus 7T? Because it might be a grey import, specifically a China variant that's been unofficially re-reflashed and something may have gone wrong with it. If you only just bought it, definitely see about returning it for replacement or refund.

OnePlus 7T HD1900 8GB/256GB Dual Sim - Frosted Silver (CN Ver with Google)

OnePlus variants intended for China come with Hydrogen OS that doesn't have Google services in it, as opposed to Oxygen OS for international markets.
