    Samsung Galaxy copy data from SD card to internal memory

    Sorry, I missed you asking about the calendar app. It's a proprietary one, but I backed it up weekly, so I still have those.

    Samsung Galaxy copy data from SD card to internal memory

    Thanks for a comprehensive reply. My old phone is a Samsung J7 Pro, over six years old. It has completely died. Apart from the screen having come apart, it won't switch on at all. Not sure if it's the screen or something internal in the phone. So there's no way to access it at all, even via a...

    Samsung Galaxy copy data from SD card to internal memory

    Right, thank you. It could be the way to go. I just need to buy the phone now when I have enough money!

    Samsung Galaxy copy data from SD card to internal memory

    edit: Or should I temporarily install the SD card into the phone - is there some way to transfer the data that way?

    Samsung Galaxy copy data from SD card to internal memory

    I'm now considering buying a Samsung A25. If I use the 256Gb internal memory, can I copy the contents of my SD card to the internal memory? Thing like a calendar data backup, folder with mp3s, photos. I'm hoping the phone comes with a data cable? If so, can I upload from my PC into the phone?

    Samsung Samsung Galaxy with 2 sims and SD Card?

    Thanks again for helping. The thing is, it really isn't easy to get a clear answer. One of your results above included the Galaxy A25 that I was originally keen on (see below). It took me quite a while to find out that, I think it was, 'Hybrid Dual SIM' meant: 1 sim and then either a second sim...

    Samsung Samsung Galaxy with 2 sims and SD Card?

    Thanks for replying. It's not the answer I was hoping for, but still. Which Samsung phone is/was that out of interest? If I went down the eSim route, is it complicated, say, to change one of my sims to an eSim - what's involved?

    Samsung Samsung Galaxy with 2 sims and SD Card?

    Is there a Samsung Galaxy with 2 sims and SD Card that's not too expensive? I was really keen on the A25, then a eventually realised it has either 2 sims OR 1 sim and an SD card, but not all three options. I have trouble following the specs clearly, as some say 'Nano', some say '2 sims one...

    wi-fi connection not protected

    A couple of days ago I was trying to set up a new Android TV for my in-laws. It involved me changing my mobile settings to try to tether my phone to the TV (unsucessfully). Since then, back at home using my wi-fi, I keep seeing this message popup: 'wi-fi connection not protected' I have no...

    skype video calls speaker volume low

    When I switch on the loudspeaker on an audio call it works fine. If I change it to a video call, the video is fine, but the speaker volume drops very low (as if it's a normal voice call through the phone earpiece). Switch off the video and the volume returns to the handsfree speaker mode. Skype...

    Adding sound files to Notifications

    Is this possible? I searched, but can't find where the sound files are stored. I seem to think I saw one that was listed as Metallophone.ogg. Even if I can find the folder, can I add files to it? The files I want to add are .mp3, could I add those or would I need to change the format somehow?

    Is there a forum for Maps.me?

    I've used Maps.me for sometime, but have always struggled how to navigate, what all the map legends are, etc. I can find youtube guides, but they don't seem to talk you through options. There's annoying music but no dialogue.

    Camera - silent mode?

    I want to disable the shutter 'click' sound on my phone. I remember on either a previous Android or an earlier version of this, there was a silent option, but I can't see it now in camera settings. I have Android 9 on my J7 Pro.

    Calendar - storage location

    I want to be able to save my Calendar data to my SD card. I see looking in Settings it refers to the amount of memory used in 'internal storage'. I can't see any way to change this to the SD card. Is it possible?

    Can I change the settings to stop google docs taking over when I edit a .txt file? Is there a simple text editor available?

    Bluemail & Calendar

    Are these two apps connected/linked in some way? I've been using Bluemail for a few years already, but only recently started to use Calendar. I notice when a Calendar reminder appears as a notification, immediately below it there's exactly the same reminder below it under the heading Bluemail...

    How to stop Google Drive requests

    For some reason I don't understand, I keep seeing the same annoying requests pop up when looking at files/images. It keeps asking me to allow Google to use Drive. I didn't see this in the past, how can I stop it appearing?

    Help Camera photo location changed by phone

    I realised my phone has changed to location of where it saves photos from my camera. For years it's been on the SD card. Now it has changed to internal storage. I tried to change it back to the SD card, but when I do I see this message: “Cannot save file to SD card, default location changed to...

    Won't open files

    Despite having installed LO Viewer, I can't get it to open an odt file. If I use explorer to find and click on an odt file, I'm told I don't have an App to open it. See the mage.

    Lost USB connection option

    Since an Android/Samsung update, I've lost interconnection that I used to have with my laptop via the USB cable. Before, when I plugged it in, I was asked on my Samsung if I wanted to allow the connection - Yes or No. Now I don't get asked and so can't connect the two devices. Can I get it...

    New notification icon appeared

    I can't find this one in the user manual. It's the one to the left of the clock synbol - what's the triangle with the two arrows inside it?

    J7 Pro Lock Screen clock display

    I haven't seen a forum for the J7 Pro, so I will try posting here. I bought the phone this week (I live in Thailand) and from what I read elsewhere, it was released by Samsung only a month ago? My question relates to the Lock Screen. I see there is a digital clock on the screen. It changes...
