How can I stop my phone charging at the recommended 80%?

FWIW my Galaxy Note20 has an automatic stop charging at 85% option in the settings. Other Samsungs may have the same or similar.
OH shoot it does too! I didn't expect that on my cheap and cheerful A13 so I didn't even check - I've never even been that far into the battery settings.

If anyone's wondering it's in settings/battery and device care/battery (where it also shows the level and time remaining)/more battery settings.

Thanks mikedt, you rock.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 and accessories

Yep velcro. I dig it. It's perfect for work for me.
Cool! I bet it is handy. I wore a watch band years ago that not only velco attached around the wrist but it had a velcro attached flap that covered the watch face. My work was so abusive to watch faces that within just a few months the crystal was so cracked and scratched there was no seeing the time. It was perfect protection though it made checking the time a two handed adventure.

I have a gifted bracelet that looks quite similar to your watch band. The braided material is made of paracord and the latch is a ferro rod and striker. A survival tool that I never wear. :) It looks cool though.

How To Make Samsung Use Audio not Video Voicemail

Every time I get a voicemail Samsung notification makes it available directly only as video voicemail. I don't want to download that Samsung app with whatever terms/conditions it has.. To listen to it as audio I have to go to the Contacts, search for Samsung voicemail phone number, and then call it. How can I set so that the notification will take me directly to audio voicemail? That's how it works on my other LG phone.
I've never seen that on a Samsung phone. Is it a carrier version phone you've got there?

Help Whats this icon next to only some of my apps? Its a heart with a circle. It is also next to all my bookmarks as well.

The heart with a circle thing looks like the "digital wellbeing" icon - a tool to track stuff like how much time you spend looking at the screen. What you might do to attach that to all of these icons I don't know (but I don't use One Ui Home, the stock Samsung launcher, so it may be something that that launcher does when you have some digital wellbeing option turned on).

I guess the other heart (pink in top corner) is some theme you've applied?

Can I use ADB on Android TV from Termux ???

Hi, folks !!!

I have both an Android TV and the package android-tools on Termux, which has ADB commands. Can I use Termux for ADB on my Android TV ???
you have to run adb from your computer regardless what device you have. you will need to connect your android tv to your pc, run adb, and then you can use adb commands to your hearts content. i'm not sure if all adb commands will work though.

here is a guide for your:

How can I backup email messages on a Samsung S22 ?

Email apps on your phone can't manage and maintain your actual email account data, they're all just email clients. You need to look into the email server, where your email account resides. Those online servers are what your email provider store your account data.
So which email service do you use? Gmail? MS Outlook? Yahoo Mail?
Log into your account using the web access site of your chosen email service and there's likely to be some kind of export function. With Gmail as an example you can use Sign in - Google Accounts to make a backup of your email/calendar/contacts. Or if you have a third-party application like Thunderbird there's an Export function in the Accounts menu.

What app is this icon to

Clearly it's not my phone or I'd know
OK so we get this question everyday. the problem is that there are millions of apps out there that have notification icons. so unless it is something like facebook or youtube, most of these questions go unanswered. the easiest way is to look on the phone's notifications to see what it is. but as you stated this is not your phone. of course you can just ask, but i guess that is not as easy as it sounds.

you might get lucky and someone might recognize it.....but don't hold your breath on an answer.

Messenger notification icon no longer appearing on home screen

not sure how that will help the op as that just adds the app to the home screen. it does not help the op get a popup message of a new text. plus this thread was started last year.....no reply from the op, so hopefully the issue got fixed.
I ran into this problem after replacing phone with newer model and using software to move all my apps and data. Discovered the missing setting was to grant the Messenger app permission to Draw Over Other Apps.

Unknown Trackers scan option A32-4G Android 13

When you say "same software version" what exactly do you mean: same Android or One UI version, or both have the same most recent update? This feature is only a couple of months old, so most likely was only added in a recent update. If one person is better at applying updates than another then that could explain it. Maybe check for software updates on both phones and install any that are waiting.

I'm assuming that both are unlocked models or both are with the same carrier. If they have carrier software and are on different carriers it's also possible that one would receive an update sooner than the other.
