    Android Beam

    When I just disable NFC and Payment from Settings/Connections and then tapping on NFC and Payment, Android Beam appears to be grayed-out but the switch is turned On. Does this mean that Android Beam is enabled or disabled?

    Apps reinstalled themselves even when disabled or uninstalled

    Last night I performed a factory data reset my S10e phone and right after that I disabled and uninstalled some of the apps that I do not use like Play Movies and TV, Google Drive, Duo, and among a few others. The next morning, I looked at my phone and I noticed these apps are back in the apps...

    Saving files from One Drive app

    If I into the My Files app, would it be fine to create a new folder from the Internal Storage directory called Documents? Would this cause problems with my phone?

    Saving files from One Drive app

    It all makes sense now, thank you. However, I would like to know as to why there is no folder called Documents in the Internal Storage directory? Suppose I wanted to transfer all my files from my PC to my phone, but would not make sense to transfer them to the Download folder. It would make more...

    Mobile Data and Battery perfornamce

    So my final question is, should I leave mobile data turned ON or OFF? If it doesn’t drain a lot of battery power then I will leave Mobile Data turned ON. But when my home WiFi is out of range it automatically switches to use Mobile Data. Is this normal? Is yes, where can I check this setting?

    Another mobile internet related question. If I have a refillable SIM card in my phone, how would the payment process go for using Mobile Data? Will the payment be automatically be deducted from the SIM card just as it would be for calling? By using Mobile Data whenever WiFi is not available...

    Mobile Data and Battery perfornamce

    I mostly use my S10e mobile device (Android 10) on my home WIFI network, but sometimes I use the Mobile Data as well to check emails and browse the internet. If I wanted to save battery performance, would it make sense to turn Mobile Data OFF and only use it as needed? I checked my phone under...

    Saving files from One Drive app

    If you go into the My Files app, you should see a section called Categories. Under this, there is a Documents folder. My question is, where does this point to in the Internal Device since I cannot see a Documents folder when I navigate to the Internal Device directory.

    Samsung Secure Folder - AES-128 or AES-256?

I searched on every web page including the below link, and no information on how Secure Folder encrypts data using AES-128 or AES-256? Just wanting to know if Secure Folder...

    Controlling Sound settings without unlocking phone?

    It works form the pull down menu, many thanks! However, would this be a security concern that those menu items can be selected from the lock screen and not just the sound settings. I saw many items as well such as WiFi controls, NFC, Media, etc. In my opinion, NOTHING should be accessed from...

    Controlling Sound settings without unlocking phone?

    How can I control the Sound settings without having to unlock my phone and go into Settings/Sounds? Just want to control the basic sound settings such as Mute, Vibrate, or Silent without unlocking the phone. Is there a way to do this?
