I have had many Android phones, including several Samsungs, and have always been able to copy files from my Windows PC. However, just got an S24 and I am struggling! I connect it to the PC with a USB cable and nothing happens. Normally, the PC would recognise it and offer some options. I can...

Not sure it would, but my problem is solved by pinning the numeric values to the clipboard and then I can recall them when needed!

Thanks, I'll look into that!

Thanks. Yes, this works for words (i.e. letters), but doesn't seem to work for numerical entries, such as a bank-code :cautious:

On my previous phone, a Samsung S10, after a while of using it remembered my bank sort code when writing a text/email and offered it as a suggested text. On my current phone, a Google Pixel 8 running the Gboard keyboard it hasn't done this. Is there any way to customise the list of words used...

Now and again, the tablet will run very slow. I have a widget that shows RAM and cpu usage - the cpu can be running high (70+%) and I am not doing anything. Clearly, something is running in the background gobbling up the resources and I would like to find out what it is!

Thanks for the suggestion but, sadly, this still doesn't offer what I need as it only gives information about RAM usage and not cpu. I have tried many task manager/system monitor apps and come to the conclusion that this is simply not available :cry:

Thanks for reply, but I was hoping for something like the Windows Task Manager, where it shows running processes and the amount of cpu being used in real-time.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab 5e and occassionally it goes really slow and unresponsive. I installed an widget that shows the system state and this indicates the cpu as high levels of usage (70+%) when it is not really doing anything! Is there a good app available that will give me information...

I have done a search for how to Cold Boot my tablet and have tried what appears to be the method, but, cannot get it to work. So, I power down the tablet and then hold down the Volume- button and, at the same time, hold down the Power button. Keeping both of these down what happens is...

I have a Samsung Galaxy Tab S and have just had to do a factory reset. The first thing I noticed is that I seem to have lost the Dock part of screen. Previously, I was able to put frequently used icons along bottom of screen and they would appear on all screens. Actually, just noticed that it...

Sorry for basic question, but, I am just migrating from An old ASUS TF101 to a Galaxy Tab S 10.5 (Android 5.0.2) and am stuck! I have created a Bookmark in the Internet app and would like to place this on the tablets home page so that I can access quickly. However, I cannot see how to do this -...

I have a Google/Gmail account and in it are 268 contacts. I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 and have set up to use the Email app to manage my emails. It also has GMail installed but I do not use it. I have it set up to sync with my Google account - just contacts. However, I am confused by what this...

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (i9505) and plan to install a custom ROM - it is already rooted. Can anyone suggest a good stable Rom I can try or, failing that, a site where I can get good info? Thanks

I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (16GB) and have, finally, run into the "not enough storage" problem when I try to add another app. I know that there are lots of apps on the phone that Samsung thinks I need, but, I could live without and getting rid of those would free up enough space for my other...
