There's no other solution. Try again, ask to speak to their supervisor, whatever it takes to get through to someone able and willing to help. But nobody else can give you the code.

Try temporarily turning Off predictive text and or Gboard.

You can also try resetting the Samsung Keyboard which i think should resolv the issue.

When your Samsung Keyboard is open i.e while on a reply or in your Samsung Messaging app tap on the settings and then reset to default settings.

Predictive text is off. I never use it. Gboard too. I am trying reset will let you know later.

You think? I kind of thought it was a corner railing/barrier with black and white arrows in the back ground and a sign post in the front because the fact it resembles the shape of route highway signs

Yes, that was my thought too. Indeed it reminded me a bit of one of the older Google Maps logos. So I'd be pretty confident that's a navigation app of some sort myself.

Isn't Nokia now just a name on some whatever devices from China (TCL) that the company can get hold of? Not like the Nokia of old, where they produced some really nice and innovative Symbian phones.

Anyway why have a NOKIA, when you can have a NCKIA.

For some "important" apps I can understand that function. But some apps with non-critical data (like e.g. golf apps), it is just annoying. Haven't found anything in their settings yet. But thanks, I guess I have to live with it.

You can always reinstall the app though.

There's an app called No root firewall that let's you allow or block internet connection for each app, including system apps that may do what you are looking for

They have the motorola g pure and g power 2021 similar to what i have tho i dont think has wireless charging unless you have the plug in receiver to let sit on a wireless charger. Mine was 120$ new pretty nice phone i think newer then the moto e. There is a g power 2022 but i think isnt compatible with some carriers.

Can't see any obvious cracks or other damage and defects in your pics, so I'd guess it's fine.

Thanks Hadron. IT IS a SEPARATE SD card that I purchased at Walmart. I tried your 1st solution, downloading the replacement from my OneDrive, which played fine before I downloaded it, but as soon as I tried to play it after downloading it wouldn't work. And as I mentioned, I downloaded the VLC media app, and it did the same thing.

Click to expand...

OK, purchased from a bricks and mortar store greatly reduces the risk of a fake card (doesn't completely eliminate, they sometimes get into supply chains, but a big, big reduction in probability).

So what app do you use when playing from OneDrive? Though if you recorded them and then remixed them I don't think it likely that the output of that somehow has DRM in it (in fact if you recorded them why would it have DRM in the first place?). But that leaves the question of what is going on unanswered.

Apologies! I found the solution.

I use Textra and can turn the sound on or off but can't change the actual sound it makes. @Hadron is right (as always), your options may be very limited even if you try other apps.

Not uninstall I understand, but which ones don't allow notifications to be blocked?

We don't know that it's notifications waking it, that's just a possibility. But one possible workaround for that is Do Not Disturb mode: by default that blocks all app notifications (you can set it to let some or all calls and messages through, or notifications from apps you want).

Click to expand...

Ok, found at least one of the culprits: Smart Things Framework. I can't uninstall it and I can't turn off notifications. It sent me a notification about something yesterday, but I don't remember what it was. I don't know if there are more of these annoying things or not. If I come across another I'll report back.

I had no issues on my run this morning. I put a lock screen on, and then took it off after the run.

I have a Samsung A52 which I use to stream to either my car audio/phone or my hearing aids. When I'm connected to one of these Bluetooth devices, I want the phone to ring ONLY via Bluetooth, not the phone speaker. This works fine in my car, but when the phone rings I hear it through the hearing aids and I hear the phone's ringtone from the phone speaker. I need to stop this for when I'm in public places where a ringtone would be a problem. Is there an easy way to do this? I can't find anything in the phone's settings. I can get it to work by lowering the phone volume to zero but I don't always remember to do it. I'd like it to happen by default.
When I don't have a Bluetooth connection, I'd want the phone to ring through its speaker. Thanks.

I'd seriously do a factory reset

Do you mean it doesn't find any signal or won't accept your SIM?

From what I can find out it should work for basic 2G telephony, as long as it isn't locked to a particular provider's SIM cards. But for anything else the c811 model looks like it only supports US bands, which are not widely used outside of North America.

There's a site that can be used for checking phone compatibility called willmyphonework.net. It doesn't list the c811 model explicitly, and I think the GzOne Commando 4G LTE it lists is a different phone because it has a 3G band which other sites don't show the c811 having.

Why do you say "mine does the same thing" when it was you who started this thread?

As we said above, no that is not normal. In fact I still have it installed and can confirm that it still works normally. So it's something odd with your phone. Have you tried any of the suggestions above? Or clearing all data for Chomp (which doesn't erase messages as they are stored in a system database rather than the message app, so will reload after you start it again - you'll lose your customisations though).

These notification icons represent several forms of notifications, such as new messages, updates, and other vital notifications.

If you need to keep the Location History on, you can disable the email notifications for it. To do this, go to Google Maps > Menu > Settings > Personal Content > Location History > Manage Settings > Email Notifications and turn it off.

......or just log into your old Google account. As long as your contacts were saved under your Google account and synced , it should be there on your new logins when you sign in to your account.

I've tried many smart home platforms, from Samsung Smartthings to Google Home to Philips Hue to Tzumi to many others. None worked reliably enough to rely on them confidently and I just went back to ye olde switches on the walls. Besides, the whole needing internet to do things the internet shouldn't be needed to do makes no sense to me. Same reasons I won't have any 'smart' appliances in my home. There's a story about someone's smart microwave that got screwed by a botched firmware update that made it think it was a steam oven. If I can't be confident that the stuff in my home will work the way it has always worked I don't want no part in it. I spent a few thousand $$$ just to make my home a 1960s time capsule, with the only exceptions being the CRT TVs are from the '90s (couldn't find a '60s CRT TV anywhere), and of course my laptops and smartphone and watch. Although my laptops are old enough to be considered 'vintage'.

But one thing is for sure. All of that conversion will be working long after the whole smart home platform has long since EOL'd. I wish I had Shango066's luck of coming across TVs of the vintage he has on the channel. I've always wanted a TV/radio/phono console. Never found one that had the TV (I got a Magnavox Astro-Sonic from the '60s that has the radio/phono) or never found one where the TV actually did anything if it existed (many times the TV had a necked picture tube, or was removed for making it a cat bed).

I'd love to find one of these, a Zenith Space Screen 45. It's a regular old piece of furniture that has a 45" Projection colour TV screen rise out of it when used:

If you're losing them on the cloud storage that's one of the things that made me never get 'into' the whole cloud storage thing. I have heard horror stories of people losing their entire MP3 collection because a cloud provider had some sort of copyright dispute over the songs stored there. It's enough to ensure I'll always have them either on internal storage (and backed up multiple places) or on an SD card.

in my Browsing strict, I set it to strict, scrolled about half way down and unchecked it.. Phew, I thought I would lose my head.

I never got the option at all. So I had no way to hit 'always' by mistake. It never prompted me. No matter what file browser I install, it just defaults to the Samsung sound picker with its limited selection and no ability to add.

It doesn't matter if you place the sounds in ringtones or otherwise, they never show up. The phone (A14 5G) I've had for only a week, and it only has 10 notification sounds available. All of them are 'spacey' and I want 'naturey' back. I use a Galaxy Watch so thankfully the watch just vibrates and the phone is silent when I'm getting notifications. A workaround at best for now.

Thankfully I was able to "TouchWiz-ify" the UI and found compatible replacement apps. Wish I could turn off the notification from android system that says 'Check Access Settings Nova Launcher has Accessibility permissions on...' but I TOLD it to use that for the double-tap to turn off screen gesture. But that annoying notification comes back every few days if I swipe it away, and Google has greyed out the ability to turn those notifications off or minimize them. I really hate how idiot-proofed modern Android is today.

At least you didn't get the false positive 'fraud alerts' when using Samsung Pay. That one also halted me for a time, ultimately forcing me to switch to a VISA. My Amex card worked just fine if I swiped the card itself, but despite it being supported by Samsung Pay (and Apple Pay), if I used those methods, it'd decline outright, and I'd get an email that declared a possible 'fraud charge' and I had to click 'try again' in the email, and then it'd work ONE time, and that was it. Took far longer than using cash. I might as well be writing a check in the checkout line for how long it took. I never knew what caused Amex to assume every Samsung/Apple Pay purchase was 'fraud' but it happened so often I went with Visa that works fine. Also today, our town is more open to NFC than it was in 2018-.
