AC Question

Whatever upgrade just happened made my texts smaller, i lost the ability to have "favorites" as a tab under contacts/phone and texts and once you go into make a phone call or text... everything is just white. it's so awful. How can I see what was just upgraded and make it go back?

Sounds like you got Nougat. You have many of the same complaints as others with Samsung devices that got upgraded to Nougat. You might be able to go back but it's not easy and you end up with a factory reset device at the end (though a simple factory reset is not the process).

My best suggestion - see if you find a theme that will help you resolve your concerns, that will be MUCH simpler. I can guide you on how to increase font size on a stock Android device (Nexus/Pixel), but those directions aren't much help on a Samsung as Samsung changes all kinds of stuff and removes features or settings like that.
