Accessing learned words in Samsung Galaxy keyboard

Hi! I'm currently sharing a phone with someone who's being pretty shifty and I just need some help.
I was typing an email address in the search bar of a browser on the Samsung Galaxy a12 we share when a whole bunch of suggestions popped up. They were all usernames ( @username ) in the suggestion part of the keyboard and when I hit the ... to view more, a whole lot of others showed up as well. I went to write them down but the problem is I only got to click on two of them before they ALL stopped showing as suggestions in the keyboard.
I'm not sure if it was an accidental glitch and I was never supposed to see those suggestions pop up at all, but the fact that they did means they've got to be stored SOMEWHERE in the phone... Right? Is there any way to access that data- anything I can try? Is there a way to hide the "learned words" that I don't know about? Could they have installed and hidden a whole separate keyboard altogether? The keyboard is just the Samsung keyboard, not GBoard and the phone is not rooted. Is there a way to do that myself in order to access that data?Any help would be really appreciated, thank you!I tried looking up the answer for this already but I'm not really getting the answers I need.

How to stop Play Store from updating itself in Android 5.1

Hello, Android forums. I have a very towering question I need to stop the Play Store from updating itself, not its apps. I need to do this because of towering size constraints on my phone. Then your Play Store versions, or way too big, and need a way to stop them from updating themselves. The old versions work fine and I. And I don't know why it updates itself. I do not. I do not need a solution on how to stop updating the apps. I need a solution. I have to stop the Play Store from actually updating itself. Because the new Play Store versions are way too big. I am also using a ZTE blade A452 (And no, I cannot root my phone I have tried and I cannot There are too many risks)

Factory unlocked Galaxy S22 on VZW won't update

I ordered a new factory unlocked Galaxy S22 for my wife (identical to one I ordered for me a few months earlier) and replaced her phone on VZW with it. My phone updated from Android 12 to 13 and gets the periodic One UI updates like it's supposed to; hers does/will not. I used a utility to change the carrier code in the firmware, but that did not fix the issue. I'm an "older" guy but tech savvy - have built PCs and networks for years and have done some programming, but I'm pretty phone-illiterate. Is there a "foolproof" tutorial somewhere that would step me through downloading and installing Android 13 from a server (after backing up the data on the phone) or is this something I should leave to someone who is more expert with phones and the Android operating system?

Thanks!
Rob

Samsung Fold4-Beta One UI 6.0

Samsung have started rolling out the Android 14, One UI 6.0 Beta test firmware to the Fold4, F936B, devices that have enrolled in their Beta programme in the Samsung Members app.

Build = F936BXXU4ZWJ4

Download = 3081.45 MB

Camera version = 14.0.00.28

Security patch = 01 October 2023

N.B.
Because beta test releases are not certified, you will find that things like Google Wallet, banking apps and Goodlock may not work until there is a stable release.

Should be heading for U.S.A. unlocked users in the next few hours.

Alternatives for Samsung Calendar

Up front: I know... I know there are trillion sites with the best calendar apps... and so on.
Right now, on my Samsung Galaxy S10 I use the Samsung Calendar app. and Outlook on exchange basis.
Regretfully it stops synchronising, even though all settings are perfectly okay and manual sync does not work.

I am seeking another app, that does :
a. sync with Outlook
b. easy search for events a llllong time ago (events of 50 years ago, even 60)

In the Samsung Calendar app - to search for old events - I often need to tap on bar that says
"Show events before ... date", I need to tap 40-50-60 times.

Now.. the following is important...

when I launch Edge or Chrome on smartphone and :
- long in on Google search
- go to the nine-dots at the top of the Google Search page
- select Calendar there
- then tap on 'Desktop' at the bottom (view Mobile|Desktop)
- set to 'list view'

of course everything is displayed in a tiny font, almost unreadable
- increase size a bit and flip the smartphone 90 degr, so the text is more 'readable'
- tap on the 'search/magnifier' button left of the date
- enter a keyword of whatever old calendar entry
and it will show up in a split second.

That is really great!

Except then that AFAIK this is not possible within neither the Google Calendar app normal view (no search button)and certainly not with the Samsung Calendar app.

Big question: are there any Android apps around that can do this?

Thanks!

Issues with signing app on Android Studio

I am just at the end of my app development cycle but unfortunately I can't sign the app bundle to upload it to the play store. When I attempt to use the "Generate signed APK" function it throws up this error message after I've put in the details of the keystore and moved on:

Gestures using Watch4

My wife and I use the same model of watch on the same carrier paired into our S21's.
Selected to set up my watch to answer using the gesture.

Selected it and trying to use it when mine rings makes me look stupid but it finally answers. I set up my wife's and when she tries to answer
people look at her strangely and hers doesn't answer. She's refusing to use it when she's out in public.

My question: Am I missing something?

Is there a way to increase the sensitivity so you don't look like your drowning when trying to answer?

Help sm-t520 10" tablet can't boot, can't connect to odin

Samsung usb driver is installed and usb debugging is enabled.

I get pop-ups all the time: "Unfortunately, Samsung keyboard has stopped".
I got original firmware from the web : T520UEUANI1_T520XACANI1_HOME.tar.md5 .
I than booted in download mode and ran odin v.3.13.1, but "Added!!" did not appear.

Then I clicked on "wipe data/factory reset" and I rebooted. But I can't use the keyboard because I still get the pop-up.
I ran odin again but nothing doing.

I am not good with android. I need help.

The ads have gotten to be so overkill... so I killed them all.

No ads on AF until further notice.

When we add them back, we'll focus more on:
  • Non-intrusive affiliate links to recommended products
  • A select few thoughtfully placed ads
As we rebrand the site, I'm supremely interested in building a site that I'd want to use myself. And I really, really dislike sites splattered with annoying ads.

If you see annoying or intrusive ads, feel free to complain! I can't promise we'll make changes but I'm certainly listening to all feedback.
