    Help Samsung A54, Android 14: How to have the phone announce caller ID to my ear phones?

    Before my cell phone had an adverse reaction to an app, an app which has now been removed, Caller ID was announced. Now I cannot get it to work. Have been through the menus without success. Anyone here know how to have Caller ID be announced on Android 14, and not have ads? EDIT/ADDITION: I...

    Help Samsung A54 Android: Many bizarre changes to screen. How to revert to usable?

    You are a genius. Exactly. I had installed a QR Scanner from the Play Store and it forced an app. "Scan Now". Reset phone settings ----> no help. Uninstalled the scan app and the GUI was 90% better. Had to do some rearranging of icons, but the phone is now back to "normal". Thank you.

    Help Samsung A54 Android: Many bizarre changes to screen. How to revert to usable?

    For years, the Home Screen had my favorite apps as a single icon. After installing a QR Reader from the Play Store, many bizarre terrible changes occurred. 1. The dot array on the lower screen is gone. There used to be 5 or 6 dots which highlighted as one slides from right to left looking at...

    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".

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

    This seems to be a complex topic. I use hearing aids, and the sound quality is excellent for me. BUT the people with whom I speak on the phone hear too much and/or too loud background noises. For example, papers wrinkling, television. There's no noise cancellation nor suppression as when...

    Help Messages on Android: Samsung vs. Google. Which one and why?

    Thank you. Does it combine the best of Google & Samsung? Can you switch among the three? Samsung doesn't do emoji, moving gifs, or instant reactions (or whatever it's called when one attaches a reaction to the sender's message) ?

    Help Messages on Android: Samsung vs. Google. Which one and why?

    On my Samsung Android, one can choose Samsung Messages (three dots in icon) or Google Messages, both labelled as "Messages". Which one do you use and why? Is there a table or list which compares and contrasts these two apps?

    Help What happened to the good voice dictation ?

    Galaxy S5 SM-G900T1 Android 4.4.2 I used to be able to press a mic button just to the left of the spacebar. Voice translation was fast and good. Now, without updating, that button is gone. Downloaded Google Voice and now when dictating it takes longer, doesn't allow sentence finishing, and...

    Geeeeez. My Galaxy 5 is fine, but Metro somehow forced this OS upgrade on my phone. I'm postponing it. How to stop this upgrade and delete it ? Or is this upgrade a wise idea ?

    Get another Core Prime or change to Grand Prime ?

    My year old Core doesn't sound good to callers, but callers state it sounds much better through my bluetooth earpiece. I don't care about the warranty, if any. The reviews of the Grand Prime sound better and both phones are under $100. Would you choose the Core Prime or Grand Prime, and why...

    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...
