    A52 + A54: How to improve or induce noise suppression while wearing hearing aids

    Thanks, the App (MyPhonak) has no such controls, at least in conjunction with this Phonak model. There are settings for my hearing, such as "restaurant" and "television".

    Get another Core Prime or change to Grand Prime ?

    Best way to be certain the entire Galaxy S5 is backed up ?

    How may one be sure that all software on the S5 is backed up? Can this be done with an application on the phone saving the data/software to a computer? Which App is used and is it put on the phone, the computer, or both? If one erases/resets the phone to factory defaults, will the backup...
