    Pie update and Facebook uses a tremendous amount of battery life??! I've installed and reinstalled.

    Sounds like Pie has taken away the ability to put background apps to sleep.

    Pie update and Facebook uses a tremendous amount of battery life??! I've installed and reinstalled.

    I think we can safely assume that the OP does not want to give up Facebook. The 3rd-party Facebook apps I have seen are really just browsing the mobile FB web site. Are there any that are actually worth running?

    Whats your next device? S10? S10+? Note 10?

    No spen on the S10. No go. Might get a Note 9 when the prices drop, especially if the reports that you can run linux on it are true.

    Starting to get away from the stylus

    Nokia N900 to Note 2 to Note 8. It's all about the pen. I use handwriting recognition all the time.

    Are you on Barbados? All the carriers here seem to be on Eastern time, even though Barbados is on Atlantic time.

    Note 8 in poor cell service areas

    Not a strong point for my Note 8. My old verizon hotspot can pull an LTE signal in a lot of places where the note drops all the way to 1X.

    Battery dropped from 48% to nearly 0%

    O°C is just freezing. I would hope that being exposed to that would not damage anything.

    Smart Lock Is a Pathetic Joke.

    Yeah, unlock by lan rarely works, so rarely thatI am surprised when it does.

    Anyone Getting the "Itch"

    When I get the ''itch" I apply some of this: If it hasn't got a pen, I'm not interested. The Note 9 isn't enough of an improvement to replace my 8.

    Verizon authorized a screen replacement at ubreakIfix. I expect TMobile would do the same
