Hi,

I think any of my contacts that login to telegram I will see something like this "John joined Telegram" screenshot https://i.imgur.com/O0DzP3u.png

Assume my name is John and I login to telegram today.

1. Will [Delete Synced Contacts] remove [John joined Telegram] message that appeared in my friend phone (friend number is in my phone contacts)?

2. How to prevent "John joined Telegram" message from appearing in my friend phone (friend number is in my phone contacts)?

3. What does [Delete Synced Contacts] in telegram do?

4. Does this "John joined Telegram" reappear in my friend phone (friend number is in my phone contacts) everytime i logout and relogin telegram?

5. Does pressing [Delete Synced Contacts] delete my existing added friend contact and chat history seen in my telegram?

6. Does pressing [Delete Synced Contacts] delete "John joined Telegram" that is already in my friend phone?

Thanks

Check Developers Options for a setting called Override Force Dark.

This can cause the sort of problems you describe.

If that is not it, then try the inverted text setting in Accessibility.

You can also search for a setting (likely in the Clock app) that gradually increases the alarm volume.

This gives a few secons to react before the alarm reaches full volume.

I use this setting because I use a very loud alarm to insure that I get up in the morning.

I did not find any of the settinngs or categories of settings listed above, but in looking at my apps section, it seems like two applications are installed, but none were done by me. I flipped back and forth between the two, setting them as default. When I looked back at my wife's messages, the very last one (only) showed "read", so maybe it will start working for future messages.

Ok, I had my wife send me another text. I am now getting notifications as on my Note 8, such as "sent", "delivered", "read", etc., whatever they might exactly be. Toggling between the apps and setting them as default then going back to the original app, then setting it as default did it.

Greetings,

Nice Android forum you have here. The wireless site I was using kind of dried up with very few people posting anymore.

I started out with Palm phones and i was a moderator on one of the old Palm forums. After HP bought Palm I switched to Nokia phones. When Microsoft bought Nokia I used Window phones for a while. When Window phones died out I switched to Google phones. I currently have a Pixel 7.

I'm a retired IBEW electrician. I have a house in Illinois and a waterfront land plot in southern Tennessee for my travel trailer.

(oh I am from Illinois as well buddy) Nice to meet you, I started with Moto razar, went to Samsung for a few cells, went back to moto, and have a Samsung tablet

Is there an option to delete the series? Maybe long press the item you are deleting and see if there are more options. Is this Google calandar, another OEM calandar, or an app from Play?

Hi there. It's a calendar reminder that is on repeat. I d(eleted it from calendar in all instances and the alarm/reminder still goes off!

It is not listed as compatible on their website which is confusing. I have mint, and if the phone supports wifi calling, Mint could use it. It says it is compatible on T-Mobile, which is what Mint runs on. Hit up Mint's support, I've always had great luck with them in the past.


(you may need to scroll all the way to the bottom of this page, click the See Full Specs link, then at the bottom it lists connectivity compatibility with various carriers.

I am going to try revisiting that option as I have that issue but I also saw it happening on a display model (Verizon) Z Fold 4 and S 22 (Ultra?). In my case, the real problem is that after the underlined text if I hit enter/return, nothing much happens depending upon what app/browser etc that I am working in. If I hit the spacebar, then it works. I think that you mentioned something like this.

Danny

Thanks to all for the suggestions/solution

You can buy any Samsung, you won't regret it.

I have WebOs, in my opinion it fits best, never had a problem.

Where do you reside? Here in the U.S. Verizon is the only major carrier that still supports the CDMA standard. Elsewhere GSM is the common default. So unless you intend to use Verizon, or any MVNO carriers contracted to Verizon, CDMA isn't really an issue. Even Verizon is gradually just letting it fade off into history.

I am in the US. Thanks for letting me know that. When I saw that on the phone description I thought it would be more of an issue than it really is based on what you are saying.

Yes.
There are two systems in the USA, GMS and CDMA.

CDMA has supposedly been on its way out for a very long time.

There are devices that are compatible with one or the other, or both.

Obviously the ones that have both abilities will have more apps and hardware on them to be able to work on both systems.

This amount is nothing in terms of reality.
It is nice to have a device that will work anywhere because it is not dependent upon only one system.

You could do some traveling to somewhere that you have no service.
A quick trip to a store, and a SIM card for any local provider will work for the time that you are there.

You could find that you wish to choose carriers, and the ability to use both systems increases your options about who your service can come from.

All major US cellular companies use one or the other system.
The smaller companies just rent the use of the towers from the big providers.

I appreciate this information. Since you said this I think I will try to find a phone with both or if I can't see one of those just get a GSM phone.

FINALLY! I have been trying to figure this out for years, Thank you, makaiguy.

As far as I know, there are numbers that get on these sort of lists.

Apps like TrueCaller use these user and other provider lists to block calls and/or give a message as you describe.

There are other apps that do the same thing.

You may try contacting whoever is running symuch an app to see if there is a way to get the number off the list.

I dont have any more details, as it was years ago that I had any experience with such an app.

If I remember right, there was an option in the settings to contact the developer(s) or the people with the lists to get a number removed.

I have resolved issue. Thank you all for the help
